Chapter 63 He Misses Her
Liu Jiao stayed until it was time for dinner before Chen Chi let her go to eat.
After leaving, she looked forward to opening the long box.
I think it might be something fun!
But it turned out to be a stack of land deeds.
At a glance, they all belong to Huajing.
I don't know when, but I pressed her handprint on it.
Liu Jiao was stunned.
He's given her all of the Chen family's businesses in Beijing.

Huajing.
Today, the King and Queen of Man Kingdom are visiting. Since it is the first time they have met since the new Emperor of Huaimeng Kingdom ascended the throne, they have come to offer their congratulations.
Sang Ji and Xin Yuehu attended the banquet together.
As always.
Even though he has now become a high-ranking official.
When two countries meet, especially those with similar strengths, they will naturally want to test their skills.
Feng Che and Hua Man brought along a skilled embroiderer.
She showed off her most satisfying picture of two birds flying side by side to everyone in Huaimeng Kingdom in court.
Watching her deftly sew, the golden cup of mulberry wine was right in front of her lips, yet she hesitated to swallow it.
Two swallows in flight, just like him and that girl.
After a long while, he lowered his eyes.
The surrounding area was filled with the clinking of glasses and the clamor of the crowd.
Sang Ji just sat there quietly lost in thought, imagining how much he would like that girl if she were by his side.
She would affectionately link her arm with his and laugh heartily.
He said he really liked this exquisite painting of two birds flying wing to wing, and happily asked the embroiderer to let him be his apprentice.
He remembered that she liked embroidery.
But now.
He opened his eyes.
It's so lively.
It's too noisy.
She was the only one missing.
He suddenly stood up from his seat.
As the banquet drew to a close, he approached Feng Che and Hua Man and bowed.
He explained his purpose:
I want embroidered items.
Sang Ji wanted to give it to Liu Jiao.
For Liu Jiao?
Feng Che raised an eyebrow and teased, "This 'Flying Together' painting is a treasure, so naturally we'll have to exchange it for your treasure."
"I remember you have an extremely rare and precious gemstone sword, which is quite beautiful. It could be made into a sword for my empress. I used to fight with you, and you would be heartbroken if I even touched it."
"Are you willing to give it to me?"
Feng Che originally intended to make things difficult for him.
Sang Ji nodded without hesitation: "Okay."
"It's just a collectible anyway, so it's perfect for the Empress."
Now it was Feng Che's turn to be dumbfounded.
Feng Che and Hua Man exchanged a glance.
The couple both saw the confusion in each other's eyes.
Sang Ji added, "But I have conditions."
Upon hearing this, Hua Man rolled her eyes and whispered to Feng Che, scoffing, "Men, huh?"
Sure enough, it's impossible for him to use Jiaojiao as a pretext to ask for other things just for her sake; that would be hypocritical.
Ever since learning of their divorce, Hua Man has found Sang Ji utterly unpleasant to look at.
The couple were of one mind, and even Feng Che rolled his eyes at this rival he once admired.
Sang Ji said:
"The sword can be given as a gift. Could this embroiderer stay in Huajing for the time being? We can teach her embroidery; she enjoys it."
Hua Man: "..."
ah?

"Jiaojiao, what do you think of Chen Chi?"
Liu Jiao has been spending time with Chen Chi these days, and Hua Jing's injuries have healed considerably.
Chen Chi is such a busy person, but Liu Jiao couldn't see through his actions or his heart.
But Liu Jiao's parents and Chen Chi's parents were experienced people, and they weren't blind.
That day, Madam Xiao saw Liu Jiao happily feeding the chicks.
With a somewhat strange expression, he asked Liu Jiao how Chen Chi was doing.
Liu Jiao scattered the rice, stroked the chick's head, and said happily, "Very good."
Xiao: "Do you like him?"
Liu Jiao didn't even look up: "I like it."
Madam Xiao: "Then are you willing to marry him?"
The clucking of the chickens spread out and echoed throughout the henhouse.
Liu Jiao suddenly looked up, and rice splattered all over her and Xiao Shi's faces:
"ah???"
