Chapter 481 Su Yu Arrives in Jizhou

He tried to remain calm, but a hint of embarrassment involuntarily crept onto his face: "If you don't want to talk about it, then forget it."

The woman, however, keenly noticed the fleeting blush on the back of his ear.

A mischievous urge to tease him arose within her, so she moved closer to him again: "Last night you clearly had the chance to completely ignore my life and escape from here by yourself. Why didn't you do that?"

"You wouldn't be..." the woman asked in a slightly teasing tone, her questioning tone carrying a deeper meaning, as if there was an underlying message.

As Baili Jiyan sensed the woman's approaching presence, his heart began to race involuntarily.

He quickly turned his face away, trying to avoid this awkward situation, and somewhat uncomfortably distanced himself from her.

"You didn't give me the antidote! If I run away like this, I'll eventually die anyway."

The woman slowly retreated to her original position and sat down next to him.

However, during this process, she accidentally touched the wound on Baili Jiyan's arm.

The woman paused abruptly, then casually glanced at the bandaged wound on her shoulder.

Then, she narrowed her eyes slightly, her gaze falling once again on Baili Jiyan's wound, a thoughtful expression in her eyes.

"Your injuries also need to be treated. Let me help you," the woman said softly as she approached Baili Jiyan.

"No need!" Baili Jiyan refused almost reflexively, his words carrying a hint of panic and resistance.

Before he could finish speaking, he anxiously reached out to press his injured arm, trying to hide the wound and avoid the woman's gaze.

The woman also quickly reached out to check his injuries.

Their hands collided in mid-air, and Baili Jiyan's hand landed heavily on the back of the woman's hand.

In an instant, the air fell silent.

Baili Jiyan felt a soft yet warm touch under his hand, and his heart clenched as if he had been struck hard.

The woman, however, remained much calmer. She paused for a moment, then slowly raised the corners of her mouth, suddenly raising an eyebrow at him. A hint of mockery and amusement flashed in her eyes, as if to say, "What's going on?"

As if burned, Baili Jiyan quickly released his grip and stepped back.

His eyes darted away, and he dared not look directly into the woman's eyes again, hurriedly looking elsewhere.

Although he looked away, he still firmly gripped the woman's wrist as she tried to attack him.

"Oh, what's wrong? You weren't shy when you bandaged me last night, why are you shy now?" The woman parted her lips slightly, teasingly.

Baili Jiyan remained calm and said slowly, "Men and women should not touch each other. Last night, however, the situation was urgent, and we had no choice but to do so."

After saying that, the woman gently struggled and skillfully broke free from his restraints, then pressed him to the ground with force.

Then she said softly, "If your wound is not treated soon, it may worsen. This is an urgent matter and we must act accordingly. Don't worry, I will not do anything to you."

Before he could finish speaking, the woman instantly ripped off his clothes, revealing the hideous wound on his arm.

Baili Jiyan instinctively wanted to resist, but the woman held his hands tightly, leaned down slightly, and whispered in his ear, "Don't move, okay? I've already seen it. This figure is really quite nice!"

Baili Jiyan felt a wave of heat rising from his ears. He had never been so aroused before, so much so that his mind went blank for a moment, and he completely forgot that he should resist.

Seeing that he was not moving, the woman then began to treat his wounds.

After treating his wound, the woman took him on his journey home.

Throughout the journey, the woman's care for him was meticulous, not only showing concern for his well-being but also checking on his injuries from time to time to see if they had worsened.

I'm just short of feeding him myself.

Meanwhile, Su Yu was traveling day and night to Jizhou without stopping, and finally arrived at her destination.

I remember the last time I came here, there was almost no blacksmith shop to be found in the city.

Not long after entering the city, the clanging and banging of blacksmiths could be clearly heard one after another, never ceasing.

Even Mo Liu, who had been following Su Yu all this way, was unaware of her true intentions in coming to Jizhou.

After finding an inn, Su Yu rested for a while and then instructed Mo Liudao, "Go to Fang Ya and see if there are any suitable shops for rent or sale. As long as the location is right, we want them."

Mo Liu nodded, accepted the order, and turned to go downstairs.

As Mo Liu reached the stairwell, he ran into Yan'er, who had just returned from the kitchen.

Upon seeing Yan'er, Mo Liu immediately blocked her path and asked directly, "Your Highness's visit to Jizhou this time must be more than just about opening a branch of your restaurant, right?"

Faced with Mo Liu's questioning, Yan'er's expression remained unchanged, neither admitting nor denying.

She merely glanced at Mo Liu indifferently, then turned to leave without saying a word.

Mo Liu instinctively grabbed her wrist, his eyes revealing concern and worry, and said in a deep voice, "If you encounter any trouble or danger, you must inform me immediately. I will not report this to the Prince, but I do not want the Princess to be in danger!"

Yan'er frowned, lowered her gaze, and gestured for him to let go of her hand.

Seeing this, Mo Liu released Yan'er's wrist.

His right hand unconsciously gripped the hilt of the sword at his waist, as if he would draw his sword at the slightest disturbance.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Then I'll go and do what the Princess Consort instructed."

Yan'er breathed a slight sigh of relief and said softly, "You're unfamiliar with this place, so be careful."

in the room.

Su Yu then said to Yan'er, "Yan'er, go and inquire around the area to see if you can find out any details about Baili Jiyan."

The person behind her specifically asked her to come to Jizhou, but didn't say where they would meet. For now, she could only wait for the other party to contact her.

Baili Jiyan was anxiously plotting his escape.

He had carefully surveyed the surrounding environment along the way and found that there was no chance of escape.

Moreover, he secretly speculated that, in order to prevent him from escaping, the woman probably did not carry an antidote to cure the poison in his body.

While taking a short rest by the roadside, the woman sat on a large rock and gently wiped the sweat from her forehead.

Her attendant rushed over, clutching a letter tightly in his hand, shouting as he ran, "Miss Sang, the letter has arrived!"

Before she could even open the letter, she noticed that Baili Jiyan was staring at it from a short distance away.
