Top assassin Jiang Xueying suddenly finds herself transported into another world, becoming the infamous "evil stepmother" to two children. Jiang Xueying, who has been single her whole life,...
She thought about this matter over and over again before deciding to ask. When she first came here, she knew that she was not the biological mother of these two children, and she didn't think too much about it. But now she has a deep relationship with them, she can't help but consider this aspect.
In case she comes looking for her in the future, she would be prepared, but she knew nothing about her and it was not easy to ask the two children, so she had to ask the person in front of her.
Ye Xingzhou frowned upon hearing this, looked at her and said, "Since I lost her, I have no idea where she is."
This statement is too vague and contains no information at all.
Jiang Xueying looked at him suspiciously, but couldn't ask any more questions, so she changed the subject and asked, "What about the gold medals in their hands?"
"This is none of your business."
Ye Xingzhou pressed his lips into a straight line, and his expression became a little cold.
Seeing this, Jiang Xueying also felt a little angry, and immediately replied in a cold voice: "If that's the case, then my business has nothing to do with you, please."
"......"
Yexingzhou stood there for a while, then turned around and strode away.
The next day, in the military camp outside the city, Yu Feng was training with a team of men under the scorching sun when they suddenly heard a short whistle.
His expression changed, and then he quickly walked back to his tent. Sure enough, he saw a piece of parchment in a corner. It said "Meet by the river in the forest at midnight" and there was a topographic map attached to it.
It was midnight, and Yu Feng went to the designated river according to the address on the parchment. As expected, he saw a tall man standing there waiting.
The man seemed to hear the sound and turned around.
When he saw his face clearly, Yu Feng was also surprised and walked towards him with big strides, "General!"
"Yu Feng, long time no see."
When he stood in front of Yexingzhou, he patted him on the shoulder and sighed softly.
After the two of them reminisced for a while, Ye Xingzhou suddenly thought of something and asked, "I heard from Xiaoyu that it was you who escorted them to Kyoto."
"Yes, it was also thanks to Miss Jiang's help during this period."
Speaking of this, Yu Feng also sighed, "She has really changed a lot compared to before."
"Do you feel the same way?"
"Yes, I used to think she was a brainless person with a vicious mind, who had been secretly bullying the princess and the little prince. But this time she seemed to be a completely different person. Not only did she have business strategies, but her skills have also become much stronger."
"But can a person really change so much in such a short time?"
Ye Xingzhou's eyes became much deeper, and he whispered, "General, what you mean is..."
"This concerns Xiaoyu and Xiaojin. We must be extremely vigilant."
"I understand. I will follow the general's arrangements in everything."
After a few days, Yu Feng was rewarded greatly by the emperor for his meritorious service in suppressing bandits and was directly promoted from a general to a deputy general, which made him the envy of countless people.
With such a reward, many more officials came to visit the palace.
Seeing this, Yu Feng set up a banquet to thank the officials who came to his house to give gifts, and Jiang Xueying was also invited because of her two children.
Looking at the invitation letter, Jiang Xueying frowned slightly. She actually didn't really want to go, but looking at the two happy children, she could only suppress the discomfort in her heart.
Jiang Xueying thought that it was just to thank Yu Feng for escorting them to Kyoto, and asked someone to prepare a generous gift.
Just as they were leaving the house, they suddenly saw a large carriage waiting outside the door. Jiang Xueying was stunned for a moment, and then saw Ye Xingzhou walking out of the carriage.
Thinking of the unpleasant parting between the two of them, Jiang Xueying didn't want to see him now, and her face became a little colder.
Ye Xingzhou, who noticed the change in her expression, was also a little helpless, and then looked at the two children and said, "Dad is here to pick you up, are you happy?"
"happy."
After seeing them smile, Ye Xingzhou looked at Jiang Xueying again and said, "Get in the car. It will take some time to get to Yu Feng's house. It will take a long time for you to walk with two children."
"You take them to the car, I'll just walk."
Jiang Xueying refused and said that she didn't want to be with him.
“Mother…”
"Two kids want to follow you. Besides, I'm on a horse and won't go in. Is that okay?"
Things had come to this point, and with her hands being held by the two children, Jiang Xueying had no choice but to compromise.
Half an hour later, the group arrived at Yu Feng's house. As soon as they arrived at the door, they saw Yu Feng greeting guests outside. When the latter saw them, he also walked over with a smile.
"Sir, Miss Jiang, you are here."
This time, Ye Xingzhou came to the banquet as the aide of King Qi, so Yu Feng's address was changed a little, but when their eyes met, they nodded imperceptibly.
"Uncle Yu, long time no see."
Ye Xiaoyu and the other person also looked up and smiled at Yu Feng.
Yu Feng showed them respect and affection at the same time, and nodded, "Well, Uncle Yu is very happy that you can come, and we have prepared your favorite food."
“That’s great.”
Following the cheers of the two children, several people entered the mansion one after another.
Yu Feng's banquet this time was also extremely casual, it was mainly for celebration. He just said a few words at the beginning and then sat next to Ye Xingzhou and the others.
After exchanging glances with Ye Xingzhou, he turned to Jiang Xueying, raised his glass, and said, "Miss Jiang, I heard that your restaurant business is very good recently."
"It's all hearsay."
Jiang Xueying returned the toast, "Congratulations on your promotion."
"Thank you." Yu Feng drank it all in one gulp, and then continued: "By the way, Miss Jiang, I remember that you never cooked before. How did you improve your cooking skills so quickly?"
Jiang Xueying's expression slightly changed when she heard this. After looking at him, she slowly said, "Maybe I have a talent for this. I received praise from everyone the first time I cooked, so I started to take it seriously afterwards."
"Really? Then the idea for the restaurant was all yours alone?"
"Of course not. That was the result of the hard work of everyone in the restaurant. How could it be the work of just me? You are flattering me too much."
Jiang Xueying smiled but didn't answer.
She could see that Yu Feng was testing her, but hadn't he given up the idea before? Why did he suddenly start doing it again?
After thinking for a while, her eyes fell on the silent man beside her, and she had a vague answer in her heart.
It turned out to be him!
