Since they were able to find someone who looked similar to her to deceive their father and brother, then the Su family must also be their target.

Everyone fell silent for a moment, and the only sound they could hear was the sound of rain hitting the ground.

They have to consider what Su Rou said.

The rain wet her hair and slowly flowed down her cheeks.

"Before that, you must prove that you are good people!" Someone among the villagers shouted this.

Su Rou turned the knife in her hand and put away the sharp tip.

"If I were a bad guy, you would have gone to hell by now."

"But you're accompanied by a desert man! Threatening us is useless. We can't completely trust you. The dead are from our village. What does it have to do with you? The dead are women and children from our village! Even if we don't report it to the police, it won't have any impact."

Su Rou turned her head to look at Andre and frowned. "You are all human beings just like the women and children who died in your village. Why do you want to die one of yourselves now to show me?"

Everyone was silent again.

Because of Su Rou's skills just now, any discerning person could see that she was very skilled.

If they really wanted to harm them, the village chief would have been killed on the spot when he was caught.

"Okay, we promise you, but please return the child."

Only then did Su Rou realize that they were talking about the child captured by Andre.

Su Rou hooked her finger, "We have no intention of offending you, we just want you to report it to the police."

In fact, this incident only brought bad reputation to the village.

Essentially they didn't lose anything.

Andre handed the child to one of the villagers.

Su Rou waved at them and said, "I'll keep an eye on you guys."

She and Andre left the village, and the drizzle had not stopped yet.

Although the air was cool, I felt a little stuffy and short of breath...

Su Rou fanned herself twice out of heat, but the sticky rain and sweat on her body made these two fanning moves completely ineffective.

"It's so hot. Why does it feel so hot even when it's raining?"

Andre glanced at her sideways, "Isn't it because you were too excited? You almost got angry with them just now."

Su Rou said, "No, I'm a calm person. Can you ask your people to boil a bucket of water for me to take a bath when I get back?"

Andre said, "You're so self-conscious that you just order me around? Aren't you afraid of what I might do to you?"

Su Rou heard something else in his words...it seemed like he was talking about yin and yang to her or something.

Su Rou said, "What are you going to do to me? What can you do to me?"

Andre: "..."

"When you went to the Northern Kingdom to ask for my hand in marriage, my father disagreed. Even the Emperor didn't dare to agree. Moreover, I don't think you are that kind of person. If you wanted to force something on a woman, you wouldn't be in this position now."

"Are you so sure you understand me?"

The rain was dripping, completely soaking the ground. The sultry air was suddenly filled with the fragrance of grass and soil, making Su Rou feel a little cooler.

Su Rou shook her finger and said, "No, I don't understand you. I've just seen countless people and can understand what you are thinking."

How could she not understand Xie Yuan in the previous life and Gong Yu in this life?

Wasn't Andre's original intention to marry her also to gain the power of her family...

Andre raised his eyebrows. "If I remember correctly, I am three years older than you. You are not that old now. How can you learn to lecture me in such a tone?"

Su Rou pinched her waist, "What's wrong?"

She also said that Andre is not as docile and well-behaved as he was when he was still with her and the old woman before leaving the North Country!

Now that I have returned to the desert and restored my status and position, things are different.

When Su Rou and Andre returned to the camp, they were both soaked by the rain.

The desert soldiers in the camp looked at the two of them with strange eyes.

The rain was not heavy, and her clothes were only damp as she and Andre walked back, not completely soaked, but!

Their sweat mixed with the rain and stuck to their skin. In the firelight, it looked like the two of them had just returned from doing something sweaty and shameful outside.

Princess Nineteen rushed out of the tent, and her maid hurriedly held an umbrella and chased after her.

"Alie, why did you leave with Su Rou without saying a word? Where did you two go?"

Su Rou entered the tent exhausted. She collapsed on the ground and said, "Can you prepare a bucket of water for me? I want to take a bath."

Andre called the servants, "Prepare hot water for her."

Princess Nineteen turned her head and looked up at him with a worried look, "Alie..."

Andre said, "Let's go back for a while. I also need to wash myself."

As he spoke, he took off his coat and walked towards the tent where Su Rou was.

Su Rou, who was lying on the ground, jumped up quickly and said, "What are you doing? Are you being a hooligan?"

Andre was left with only his undershirt, and his strong and muscular chest was faintly visible.

"This is my tent. You were lying here motionless. I thought you were trying to be a hooligan."

Su Rou got up from the ground and said, "Here you go. Remember to ask someone to bring hot water to my tent."

Su Rou felt hot all over and uncomfortable. The weather was really weird.

Su Rou glanced at Princess Nineteen who was standing outside.

She said, "He and I just went to the village to investigate the situation. Don't let your imagination run wild."

Princess Nineteen looked at her with an expression as if she wanted to eat her, so she should explain.

But it wasn't until now that Su Rou realized that Princess Nineteen was interested in Andrei, but Andrei was not interested in Princess Nineteen...

However, if Andre really married the Nineteenth Princess as his consort, the position of the King of the Desert would definitely belong to Andre in the future.

Princess Nineteen was stunned for a moment, "You..."

Su Rou waved her hand, "The innocent will be innocent."

Not long after she returned to the tent, two guards came in carrying wooden buckets filled with hot water.

In addition to the two guards and the wooden barrel, Princess Nineteen also came.

Su Rou untied half of the belt of her coat and then tied it again.

"What are you doing? Are you going to act like a hooligan too?"

Princess Nineteen stared at Su Rou's clothes. "It's raining outside, and your dress is all dirty. I brought you a set of my own clothes. You can change into them later. They are the clothes of women from the Central Plains. Don't worry."

The last sentence, are you worried that she would care about the style of clothes?

Su Rou said, "Oh...thank you."

Princess Nineteen still stood there unmoved.

Su Rou was a little anxious, "I'm going to take a shower, aren't you going out?"

Princess Nineteen said, "This is a military camp after all, and there are men everywhere outside. If I stay here, I can ensure that no one will peek at you while you bathe."

Su Rou said, "No, no need..."

Why is Princess Nineteen also acting like a hooligan like Andre?!

"We are both women, what does it matter? Or do you have some shameful secret that you cannot let me see?"

Su Rou; “…”

It seems that she has to take off this dress.

"Pa pa" Princess Nineteen clapped her hands twice, and the maid waiting outside came in carrying various items.

"I'll have someone wait for you to bathe."

Su Rou said, "You can watch if you want. You don't have to wait on me. When I was in the general's mansion, I didn't have the habit of having maids wait on me."

Princess Nineteen raised her hand and said, "Okay, I'll let them leave."

Su Rou took off her coat. Without clothes to cover her naked body, she felt a little cold when it came into direct contact with the air.

The sweat on my body was also blown away by the cold wind.

Princess Nineteen asked, "Why do you have so many scars on your body?"

During the time Su Rou was recuperating in Hongluan Tower, her skin became very white, but after her injuries healed, they were left with a series of shocking scars.

Su Rou rubbed her body, got into the wooden tub, and soaked her whole body in it.

“I was beaten.”

Princess Nineteen asked, "Who beat you?"

The hot air was thick and the steam rising from the wooden barrel hit her face.

Su Rou said, "There was a princess from the Beinan Kingdom. I don't remember her name, but she died at my hands. But there was also someone else who hurt me."
