Chu Jingchen was stunned, Yi Duoer's words kept echoing in his mind. It's not that he didn't do anything, but there are many things that cannot be brought to light.

He knew that Chu Junye had feelings for Yi Duoer, and he was also secretly putting pressure on the emperor. He believed that it would not be long before the emperor would issue an order for Chu Junye to divorce his wife.

This was the first time they had an unpleasant experience, which made him feel very upset. Suddenly, he understood Duo'er's last words. Was it because of him that she wanted to quickly restore her innocence?

At this time, Yu Shu saw Yi Duo'er had left, and was delighted. He immediately went to bring a box of cakes, and walked bravely to him with a smile on his face.

"Your Highness, this is the osmanthus and jujube paste cake I made. Please try it." Yu Shu twisted her waist and placed the cakes neatly in front of him, completely unaware of Chu Jingchen's disdainful expression and murderous intent in his eyes.

If Duo'er hadn't insisted on protecting her, she would have been beheaded just because she poisoned Duo'er. So he asked Qiu Chan to keep an eye on this vicious woman.

"Duo'er can protect you for a while, but she can't protect you forever. Put away your inappropriate thoughts," Chu Jingchen's tone was very cold. The sudden words frightened Yu Shu. Could it be that he already knew that she poisoned Yi Duo'er?

She pretended to be confused, saying she had no idea what he was talking about. She felt extremely disgusted when Chu Jingchen said one more word to her. He simply told her to get lost and not appear in his and Duo'er's sight in the future.

Yu Shu knelt on the ground. He was unwilling to give up!

Her eyes flushed red. "Why is it that no matter how badly the young lady treats you, she still wins the prince's favor, while I am more gentle and capable than the young lady! And yet I am so despised by the prince?" She didn't understand, nor was she willing to accept it. From childhood to adulthood, she had always taken care of her and knew more than she did. Was it just because her family background was better than hers?

Seeing that she was so stubborn and malicious, comparing everything with his Duo'er, Chu Jingchen no longer gave her any face and looked down on Yu Shu with condescension!

His sharp eyes betrayed disdain, his face gloomy as ice. "Who the hell are you? Not only are you malicious, but you also love to sow discord between me and Duo'er. Since Duo'er insists on forcing you to protect her, then Qiu Chan, send her back to the Night Palace. From now on, she is not allowed to approach Duo'er, nor is she allowed to set foot in Li Lan Residence!"

Qiu Chan heard the master's call and flew forward, then picked up Yu Shu and was about to leave! Yu Shu cried, "Prince, I was wrong. Please don't drive me away. From now on, I will never have two hearts. I just want to serve you and the young lady well."

This little episode made Chu Jingchen feel as sick as if he had eaten shit. He wanted to calm down and then go and coax his Duoer. Han Bai rushed towards him!

Seeing Chu Jingchen's gloomy face, he only said one sentence, "Master, Xie Xingchen is in the capital again!" After that, he stood beside him and didn't dare to speak again.

Chu Jingchen's sinister eyes darkened, as if he was thinking about something.

In the past few days, Yi Duoer ignored Chu Jingchen's flattery and instead devoted herself to her products! During this period, the two princesses were shareholders here, so they would recommend the products to the ladies and maids in the palace!

However, the higher the price, the better the quality.

That day, Yi Duo'er was helping out in the store. Xie Xingchen walked into the store and saw Yi Duo'er busy at work. A smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

"Yo~ Duo'er is getting busier and busier now. If I want to see you, I have to queue up." Xie Xingchen joked. Yi Duo'er met an old acquaintance.

She came up to him with a happy expression, "Xie Xingchen, didn't you go back to Dongli? Why are you here again so soon? Didn't you bring a gift for your Crown Princess? Were you kicked out after kneeling on the washboard?"

Yi Duo'er's words were always so surprising. Xie Xingchen's face darkened slightly, but it didn't make him unhappy. Instead, he felt very comfortable with her! There was no intrigue.

"You still owe me a meal! What? Are you trying to shirk your responsibility?" Xie Xingchen looked at Yi Duoer meaningfully with a spring in his eyes. However, he had not come to Qichao this time just for this meal.

But there are more important things to do!

Yi Duoer waved her hand proudly. She thought he came to see her for something. Then she patted Xie Xingchen's shoulder to show her.

"Don't worry, you won't be hungry when you come to my place! I've researched a new restaurant! It's newly opened, and their barbecue is amazing. Let's go..." It was approaching the evening hour, and Yi Duo'er's stomach was indeed growling. Speaking of his sizzling barbecue, she couldn't help but swallow!

He gave Xie Xingchen a look as if he was ready to leave.

Xie Xingchen couldn't help but smile at her greedy appearance. He looked at her with doting eyes! He thought, if only she wasn't the Third Princess.

Yi Duoer said to the other two waiters, "You've all worked hard today. Take two taels from your account and I'll treat you to wine and meat!" When the two waiters heard this, they quickly leaned over to thank him. The two taels were enough for them to have a good meal. And there was even some left over!

Yi Duoer is not only very generous to his employees, but also very humane in his management. Therefore, the people working in Yuhua Group love this boss behind the scenes very much.

After Yi Duoer finished her business, the two of them came to the Yuxiang Restaurant.

As soon as you enter, you can hear the sizzling sound of grilled meat on the table. The seasoning and specifications here seem to be imitating modern ones. If you don’t know, Yi Duoer would think it is opened by modern people.

The two found a seat by the window and sat down. "My dear guests, this is our menu. You can draw what you want to eat."

The waiter gave them a menu, and Yi Duoer drew on it.

Soon, all the dishes were served. Yi Duoer was in charge of grilling and eating. "How is it? My cooking skills are not bad!" Yi Duoer boasted.

The two of them started discussing other topics, and it seemed that they had endless things to say. Xie Xingchen watched Yi Duoer describing her glorious years and what happened when they met in the casino with her hands and feet dancing. Yi Duoer's smile became brighter, and his beautiful face was deep and lively.

For a moment, he was a little dazed by the sight. He had never met such a pure woman before, but unknowingly, Yi Duoer had quietly lived in his heart.

Xie Xingchen couldn't help but say, "Duo'er, would you like to go to Dongli Country with me? The scenery there is beautiful and there are many interesting things." He was a little drunk and had an impulse to take Yi Duo'er directly back to Dongli Country and hide her!

Her beauty, her spirit and liveliness were only for him to see. He expressed his true feelings, but Yi Duoer thought he was just inviting a friend.

I had been waiting for an opportunity to venture out, so I agreed without hesitation. "Okay, if I go to your country, I'll be so kind to you! Thank you, Xingchen!"
