The Evil King's Favorite: The Princess Is Too Cruel

Yu Hui was dead, and Su Qingning could not get any useful information, so she had to return to the city with Mo Lintian and others.

Fortunately, Su Qingning did not gain nothing. At least she avenged the skinning of Jiuwei's mother, and also got information about another enemy.

After entering the city, Su Qingning planned to separate from them. However, before she could say anything, Xie Yichen spoke first: "Aning, where do you live? We will take you back."

Hearing this, Su Qingning was stunned for a moment. She didn't intend to reveal her true identity now, so she gently shook her head and refused: "No, I can go back by myself."

Seeing Su Qingning's refusal, Xie Yichen didn't insist, "Okay! Then be careful on your way back."

"Ah."

Su Qingning nodded and was about to leave when she suddenly remembered something and stopped. She looked at Xie Yichen and said, "Um... Third brother, can you lift the hem of your clothes with both hands?"

"Huh?" Xie Yichen didn't understand, but he still did as Su Qingning said, "Is that so?"

Xie Yichen bent down and lifted up the hem of his clothes. Seeing this, the others showed the same confused expression on their faces as Xie Yichen. They were a little curious about what Su Qingning was going to do next.

"Hold it tightly and don't let go." Su Qingning reminded with a serious expression.

Seeing Su Qingning so serious, Xie Yichen couldn't help but straighten his attitude and prepare for battle. "Okay, I won't let go."

As soon as the words fell, several people saw Su Qingning raise her hand and wave, and then Xie Yichen felt the hem of his clothes sink. He lowered his head and looked down, and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Fuck!"

He saw dozens of bottles of medicine in the hem of Xie Yichen's clothes. He was so scared that he clenched his hands tightly, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged. He was afraid that if he accidentally let go, the dozens of bottles of medicine would fall to the ground and shatter into pieces.

"Third brother, this is the potion I prepared these days. Please help me sell it. I will go to the Seven Star Auction House to find you in a few days." Su Qingning didn't give Xie Yichen a chance to speak. She raised her hand and waved to the others, "Thank you, third brother. I'll go back first."

Looking at Su Qingning's leaving back, Xie Yichen was stunned until he came to his senses when he heard an unkind laugh beside him.

"Hey, Yichen, your new brother is quite interesting!" Tang Jinan smiled. He reached out and took a bottle of potion from Xie Yichen's clothes, and asked with a smile: "But why didn't you tell us that your brother is a pharmacist?"

Xie Yichen lowered his head slightly, his gaze falling on the dozens of transparent bottles of medicine on the hem of his clothes. A rather helpless expression appeared on his face. He said softly, "Can I say that I just found out about this?"

"Oh!" Yang Youli couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he heard this. He looked at the shrewd Xie Yichen beside him with interest, and said with a half-smile, "I didn't expect that Third Young Master Xie would so hastily acknowledge this brother without even knowing the other party's background. Aren't you worried that your brother is hypocritical and scheming, and will plot against you one day?"

"No." Facing Yang Youli's doubts and concerns, Xie Yichen shook his head without hesitation. He said with certainty: "Youli, you think too much. Aning is not that kind of person. She will never hurt me."

"Oh? Are you so sure?" Yang Youli asked back.

"Yes, I'm sure." Xie Yichen nodded affirmatively. He said, "A person's eyes can't lie. Aning's eyes are clear. She looks at us without any calculation. She is different from those who curry favor with the powerful. I believe her."

"Yeah, Youli, you're probably overthinking it." Qi Runyu also spoke up for Su Qingning. "Think about it, Aning knew our identities, but she didn't try to please us. She even ignored us before. I don't think she'd approach Xie Huli with a purpose."

"And..." Qi Runyu glanced at the dozens of bottles of medicine on Xie Yichen's clothes and said, "She took out dozens of bottles of medicine in front of us without any hesitation. She didn't make excuses saying that her master or others made them, but frankly admitted that she made them herself. This shows that she trusts us!"

"I agree with that," Tang Jinan continued, holding up the bottle of light blue potion in his hand. "I've seen it. It's a perfect, entry-level potion. So, Brother Aning is at least a junior pharmacist."

"For a ten-year-old junior pharmacist, this talent is somewhat abnormal." Tang Jinan raised his eyes to look at the others and said in a serious tone, "You should understand that in this world where martial arts are respected, no matter what profession, a genius who has not yet grown up is the most envied and the most likely to die young."

"But Aning didn't hide her identity as a pharmacist because she believed we wouldn't hurt her. So..." Tang Jinan's gaze slowly fell on Yang Youli. He spoke seriously, word by word, "So, Youli, we shouldn't betray her trust, and we shouldn't doubt her."

Yang Youli was silent. He knew that what Tang Jinan said made sense, but he had always been cautious in his actions, so it was inevitable that he would consider more issues.

"Okay! What you said makes sense." Yang Youli looked up at the direction where Su Qingning left and whispered softly, "I hope she is worthy of your trust, and I hope she will not let you down."

"Oh, okay, okay, don't think so much." Qi Runyu raised his hands and put his arms around Yang Youli and Tang Jinan's shoulders, and said with a smile: "When the time comes, everything will work out. Now, we should go back to our own homes, sleep if we need to, and rest if we need to."

After saying that, Qi Runyu hugged Yang Youli and Tang Jinan and walked forward, while Xie Yichen and Mo Lintian walked behind them.

Before leaving, Mo Lintian looked back at the direction Su Qingning left. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that Yun Ning and Su Qingning gave him a very similar feeling, and he always paid attention to her unconsciously.

……

On the other side, after Su Qingning sneaked back to the Su family under the cover of night, she did not return to Jinyuan immediately, but quietly climbed into Yayuan, the courtyard where Su Jingya lived.

That's right, at this time Su Jingya already had her own separate courtyard, and it was one of the best-located courtyards in the Su family. This alone showed how favored Su Jingya was in the Su family.

It’s no wonder that Su Jingya was so arrogant in her previous life. She often brought her bootlickers to the Su family and bullied Su Qingning and Su Qingyu, the siblings, unscrupulously.
