Reborn as a tree, the peerless god is obsessed

When Chu Yunxiang caught up with the assassins, the officers and soldiers also arrived. The officers and soldiers couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. With his help, the assassins were quickly taken away by them, and they thanked him profusely before leaving.

Chu Yunxiang waved his hand, signaling the officers and soldiers to be polite. Then he turned and looked towards the restaurant, his heart filled with worry. Xue Yao was still there, and he had to go back to confirm whether she was safe.

He used his Qinggong skills to quickly return to the front of the restaurant, but there was only silence there, as if nothing had happened.

His heart tightened, and he hurried forward, bowed, and asked the restaurant guard.

"Excuse me, is Miss Xueyao, who was here with me just now, okay? Is she injured?" Chu Yunxiang's tone was full of anxiety.

The restaurant guard didn't know Miss Xueyao, but when he said that, an idea suddenly occurred to him, "Boss Chu, is that the girl you had dinner with? She's not injured."

The restaurant guard complained inwardly, it was strange, the injured one was obviously the general, but Mr. Chu asked if the girl was injured, nonsense.

"So she left? Which direction does she live?"

The restaurant guard nodded and replied, "Don't worry, Master Chu, the girl has already left."

Chu Yunxiang breathed a sigh of relief, but still felt a little uneasy.

After asking a few people, they finally learned that she and her companions had rescued the general. After the general was no longer in danger of life, they sent him to the government and asked the government to help find his family.

Xue Yao also gave some pills to heal the general's injuries.

When Xueyao came out of the government office, she happened to run into Chu Yunxiang.

He asked with concern: "Miss Xueyao, are you okay? Are you hurt?"

Xue Yao shook her head and said with a smile: "I'm fine, Mr. Chu, thank you very much! I just didn't expect that this..." It is said that the remnants of Prince Jing have been almost eliminated, and the capital has calmed down, but such a thing would still happen.

Chu Yunxiang sighed, "Yes, although the capital is prosperous, it is still a place of hustle and bustle, and disputes and undercurrents are inevitable. However, I believe that justice will always triumph over evil. We just need to do what we should do."

Xueyao nodded in agreement.

As they walked and talked, they unknowingly arrived at a small alley in the capital. Although the alley was narrow, it was brightly lit on both sides and bustling with activity. The cries of vendors and the laughter of customers echoed one after another, forming a vivid picture of the market.

Chu Yunxiang pointed to a shop in front and said to Xueyao, "Miss Xueyao, what do you think of this shop? I think the location here is good and there is a lot of traffic. We can consider opening a grain store here."

Xue Yao looked in the direction of his finger and saw that the shop had a spacious frontage and elegant decoration. It was indeed a good choice. She nodded slightly, "Boss Chu's vision is indeed unique. This is indeed a good place to open a grain store."

The two walked into the shop. Seeing customers approaching, the shop assistant hurried forward to greet them. Chu Yunxiang asked the shop assistant about the rent and transfer price, wondering if it was a good deal. Xueyao walked around the shop, observing its layout and surroundings.

Soon, Chu Yunxiang and the waiter agreed on a price. He turned to look at Xueyao and asked, "Miss Xueyao, what do you think? Is it feasible?"

Xue Yao nodded and smiled, "This is indeed a nice place. If it can be successfully opened, it will definitely attract a lot of customers."

Chu Yunxiang was overjoyed when he heard this. He knew Xueyao had a unique vision, so if he could get her approval, he must be right. So, he made a quick decision, signed a contract with the employee, and bought the shop.

After buying the shop, Chu Yunxiang got busy preparing for the opening. Xueyao provided the food and utensils. Following Xueyao's plan, he hired craftsmen to renovate the shop.

He was looking forward to it. He had accumulated a lot of experience over the years, and now all of this experience had sprouted and was ready to be put to good use when the restaurant opened.

The grain shop finally opened as scheduled. On the opening day, the shop was bustling with people. Xueyao and Chu Yunxiang were busy, but their hearts were filled with joy and satisfaction.

Unsurprisingly, the grain shop's business was booming, and the two men cooperated very well.

However, at this moment, a shocking piece of news suddenly spread in the capital: the general who returned from the frontier was actually the younger brother of the current empress. After this news came out, the whole capital was in an uproar, and people were discussing the identity and background of this general.

After the general woke up, he learned that his identity had been exposed. Although he had a premonition in his heart, he was still shocked to hear the news.

He knew very well that he had returned not only to visit his relatives, but also to shoulder an important task, which was to investigate an unknown force in the capital.

This force had already been noticed in the border areas, and now it had infiltrated the capital, which made him deeply worried.

With the help of the government, he quickly found his family. His return filled the family with joy, but it also made them realize that they had become the target of an unknown force. The general decided to wipe out this force and eliminate the threat to his family and the country.

"Miss Xueyao, is there someone visiting? The man says his surname is Nan." The doorman of Li's house trotted over and announced outside Xueyao's yard.

"Nan?" Xue Yao was a little confused. She didn't know anyone with the surname Nan here.

Wait, last name Nan?

Could it be the Nan in Queen Nan?

No, it won’t.

While thinking about it, I walked out.

When she got to the door, she saw that the person who came was a man, dressed in gorgeous brocade clothes, with a handsome face and extraordinary temperament. Xue Yao was shocked. This man was indeed extraordinary, but she didn't recognize him.

She quickly bowed and said, "I didn't know you were coming to visit me. I apologize for not welcoming you."

The man smiled slightly and returned the greeting, "Miss Xueyao, you are so polite. My name is Nan, and I have come here specially to thank you."

Xueyao was even more surprised. His last name was Nan. But, thanks? How could he thank me when I didn't even know him? How did he know about me? Could it be related to the general's affairs?

Seeing that Xueyao was still suspicious, he hurriedly said, "Thank you for saving my life, Miss Xueyao..."

"Oh, sir, you're welcome. Could it be that you are the injured general?" Xue Yao was afraid that he would say something she didn't want to hear, so she quickly interrupted him.

During her travels, she had heard many stories of people who had saved her life but were unable to repay it and were willing to give their lives in return.

She didn't want to get caught up in this clichéd plot. She didn't know if the man in front of her was the general who was injured in front of the restaurant and later treated by Xue Yao.

The incident happened suddenly that night, and she was only concerned with saving people, so she didn't pay attention to the appearance of the injured.

Thinking of this, she raised her eyebrows. If this man really promised to marry her, wouldn't that cause her a lot of trouble?

No, no.
