Chapter 52
Yin Su held a handkerchief in his hand and looked at her with a faint smile, his eyes full of doting and attachment.
At this moment, he was standing in front of the door. His tall body blocked most of the light, and all the sunlight poured into his back, climbing up to his shoulders and both sides of his head, as if he was passing through a circle of illusory light, making him look even more charming and handsome.
Jiang Zhaoli was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and replied to him with a cold face, "Does he think that he can undo his past mistakes by doing a few things himself?"
Yin Su was not angry. He put the towel on the basin rack. He knew that Madam Jiang would not get off the bed due to shame, so he picked up the pink silk skirt from the hanger beside her and handed it to her. He also pulled down the curtain on the couch in one go.
Jiang Zhaoli took a deep breath. This was supposed to be the job of a personal maid, but now it was snatched away by him. The two maids who followed her to Yuncheng were nowhere to be seen. She rubbed her brows and knew without thinking that it was Yin Su's work.
Yin Su stood quietly in front of the curtain, looking at the graceful figure of the woman in a trance. He could not see the figure inside the curtain clearly, but only saw an illusory black shadow behind the gauze curtain, taking off his underwear, revealing his smooth and round shoulders.
Yin Su froze and quickly turned his back. His eyes drooped, his thin lips pursed, his body trembled slightly, his fingertips turned white from pinching, and a strong desire instantly filled his body. He took a deep breath and suppressed it with his internal strength.
Soon, Jiang Zhaoli finished washing up, and Yin Su immediately brought up the prepared meals. There were eight dishes in total, a combination of meat and vegetables, and no one was repeated.
He does everything himself, including serving the food, arranging the plates, serving the soup, and pulling up the stools.
Jiang Zhaoli didn't say a word from beginning to end, just sat there with a sullen face.
She looked up at the sky. The sun was shining brightly, but Song Shiyan was nowhere to be found. In the past, he would always come and knock on the door at this time, but today he was unusually quiet.
As if thinking of something, he glanced at Yin Su, frowned and asked, "Where is Song Shiyan?"
Yin Su paused and shook his head: "Maybe he is still asleep."
Jiang Zhaoli didn't believe it and insisted on going out to take a look. After all, all the strange things that had happened in the past few days were caused by Yin Su. At this moment, Song Shiyan was absent without reason, which made her suspect that it was Yin Su who had held him back.
She did not enter the house, but walked to the window frame of Song Shiyan close to the corridor, quietly opened a gap and took a look. She saw a person lying on the couch, with shoes and socks neatly placed under the couch. It was Song Shiyan.
She and Song Shiyan agreed yesterday to leave early this morning so that he would not break his promise. It was really strange now.
Although I felt suspicious, I didn't go into the house to check. After all, it was not appropriate for a woman to go into a man's room...
She called the waiter and asked him to go in and check on Song Shiyan's condition.
In an instant, the waiter came out of the room and looked at Jiang Zhaoli in confusion: "Miss, the young man is sleeping soundly. There is nothing wrong. Do you want to wake him up?"
Jiang Zhaoli shook her head and finally felt relieved. She didn't ask any more questions and went back into the house.
Although Yin Su has been unserious these past two days, he would not endanger Song Shiyan's life.
Seeing that she was so nervous about Song Shiyan, Yin Su felt very uncomfortable. He clenched his palms and suppressed his resentment towards Song Shiyan.
Jiang Zhaoli ate a few bites reluctantly and suggested going out for a walk. If she stayed in the house, Yin Su would always sit next to her, making her feel uneasy.
Yin Su smiled gently and said, "Okay, I'll go with you."
Jiang Zhaoli: “…”
Unable to shake it off, she took a deep breath, endured it, turned around and went downstairs. She happened to meet the shopkeeper who had just finished serving the guests. When he saw her coming down, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Girl, you are having a good rest in the shop."
"If you had listened to me, you and your spouse would have saved a lot of money."
Jiang Zhaoli smiled wryly, responded with a few simple words, and turned to leave.
Yin Su followed closely behind and sneered as he passed by the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper shuddered all over, feeling inexplicably flustered. He immediately turned around, and waited until they were far away before he dared to turn around and speak: "The young man just now was not the one from yesterday, right? The one from yesterday was handsome, but the one today has a seductive appearance and a cold temperament. He even glared at me just now. But why does this young man look so familiar? I feel like I've seen him somewhere before."
Jiang Zhaoli strolled around in boredom. There were fewer people on the streets today, as if everything was returning to normal.
When she walked to the stalls, one of the stall owners waved at her. He was the one whose purse she bought yesterday was forcibly taken away by the guards. He smiled and asked what she wanted to buy today.
Jiang Zhaoli paused, turned his head to look at the silent man, and thought again of what he had done yesterday. A surge of anger suddenly rose up in his stomach.
She suddenly didn't want to wander around anymore and wanted to go back to the inn. What was the difference between this and staying inside? She still had to face him.
As the prince of Yuncheng, how could this man have so much free time?
—
He is not idle at all. The people at the Xiao Mansion are looking for him like crazy. I don't know how many waves of people they have sent.
Xiao Chang stared at the guards kneeling below with a serious face and frowned: "How is it, haven't you found the prince yet?"
Minghua knew where Yin Su was and what he had done, but she did not say much. She just asked her husband to relax.
Xiao Chang frowned, "It would be fine on normal days, but the situation these days is special. He has dealt with these Min people before, and now that His Majesty is personally examining them, it would be unreasonable for him not to go."
Minghua comforted her: "I will go and talk to His Majesty, my husband, don't worry."
Thinking of what Su'er did yesterday in the name of her husband, she shook her head helplessly. If her husband knew about this, he would probably be furious. It was better to keep it from him.
Su'er had just returned not long ago, and their relationship had just been repaired during this period of time, and it must not be ruined by this incident.

Jiang Zhaoli turned back to the inn, but met the guards from yesterday at the side of the inn entrance. They looked anxious and were obviously waiting for Yin Su.
They were also stunned when they saw Jiang Zhaoli, and then touched their noses guiltily.
Jiang Zhaoli cursed inwardly, thinking that it was really unlucky to go out today and keep meeting people she shouldn't meet. She turned around with a cold face and went into the house.
When she closed the door, she found that Yin Su was still following her closely. Finally, she could no longer endure it after enduring for a long time. The anger that had been accumulated for two days burst out. She stood at the door, her face full of anger, and her voice became louder: "Yin Su, can you please stop making trouble?"
"You know the more you act like this, the more I hate you."
The guard who came up with him to persuade him to go back quickly gasped, his eyes widened and his feet froze in place when he heard this.
He…they heard something.
Although they had spent a relatively short time with Prince Yin, they knew his temper. His mood was always changeable, and if they approached him when he was in a bad mood, nothing good would happen. Now that he had hit a wall with Second Miss Jiang, there was no guarantee that he would not take his anger out on them.
Thinking of this, I was so scared that I was shaking all over and even regretted following him for a moment.
Yin Su was stunned for a long time, his eyes flashed with hurt and his lips trembled slightly. He just saw boredom in Madam Jiang's eyes.
It turns out that he keeps pestering her like this, she will really get annoyed...
But he also wanted to gain her forgiveness.
When he thought that she would never forgive him in the future, his heart seemed to be pulled with pain.
Yin Su lowered his eyes, then smiled: "Then you take a rest first." The disappointment in his eyes could not be concealed.
Jiang Zhao said goodbye and turned away: "You don't have to come to look for me again in the future. I will return to Luocheng in a few days."
"I can't pretend that nothing you did happened."
"Maybe there really is no destiny between us. There's no need to force it."
After he finished speaking, Jiang Zhaoli closed the door casually with a bang. The hearts of the people present couldn't help but tremble.
Yin Su stood in front of the door for a long time without moving, his eyes darkened and a sneer appeared at the corner of his lips.
He never believed in fate. Since she said there was no fate between them, he would try his best to become her fate.
He turned around abruptly and walked towards the stairs. Several soldiers were trembling with fear. Yin Su glanced at them coldly and said with his thin lips: "Get out."
A few people nodded and bowed, then left immediately.
After Yin Su returned home, his face was gloomy. He even ignored the maids and servants who greeted him along the way. He strode towards the backyard. He wanted to find Zou Yuan because all these crappy methods were thought up by him.
He promised that Madam Jiang would change her mind, but if he didn't change her mind this time, she might have already hated him.
Zou Yuan was lying on the couch. He was injured some time ago and has almost recovered now. He was sitting on the couch and rubbing his arm which had not been moved for many days.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, I suddenly felt uneasy for no reason.
He was very familiar with these footsteps. Who else could it be but Yin Su?
The door was pushed open forcefully, and Yin Su walked into the room with a dark face, narrowed his eyes and asked coldly: "What bad idea did you come up with?"
After learning the purpose of the visit, Zou Yuan coughed and rubbed his nose awkwardly. He had no idea that Miss Jiang had such a deep misunderstanding of Yin Su.
Who would have thought that Yin Su would hide everything from the girl? From Miss Jiang Er's perspective, Yin Su didn't treat her as a family member at all, so it's no wonder that she would be angry.
He didn't know what to say for a moment.
Before Yin Su lost his temper, he thought of an idea: "How about this, I'll go find Miss Jiang Er in a couple of days to speak for you."
He could see that the Second Miss Jiang was a sensible girl and would not take her anger out on him just because he was on good terms with Yin Su. On the contrary, he had indirectly saved her by stalling for time at the Jiang Mansion last time.
Last time in Luo City, she brought him the best medicine for wounds, and he knew then that Miss Jiang was a kind-hearted person who knew how to repay kindness.
He knew all her misunderstandings about Yin Su. Maybe if he told everything to Second Miss Jiang, she would believe him.
But if Yin Su told her, she probably wouldn't believe a word of it.
All in all, she was annoyed with Yin Su in her heart.
Yin Su narrowed his eyes, a malicious look flashing in his eyes: "Are you familiar with Madam Jiang?"
He still remembered what Zou Yuan said about being the second brother-in-law.
Zou Yuan's scalp tightened and he shook his head quickly: "No, of course not as familiar as you. I just cleared up the misunderstanding between you two."
Yin Su snorted coldly, picked up the cup on the table and took a sip, then stepped closer, reached out and touched the fine bedding on the bed, and smiled at him gently: "I'm trusting you for the last time. If this doesn't work out, you can move to the stable and sleep."
Zou Yuan was stunned and cursed in his heart, "Damn Yin Su, he was ungrateful and heartless and actually wanted him to sleep in the stable."
