"This must be Miss Su?" Zhou Ji asked enthusiastically and with amazement.
Shen Qianxue nodded, then said to Su Jinxia, "This is the Seventh Prince, come and pay your respects."
Su Jin clasped her hands in a fist salute and bowed slightly.
Commoners should kneel before a prince, but Su Jin did not.
Shen Qianxue didn't say anything, and neither did the Seventh Prince.
Those present dared not say anything more.
After all, the rumors between Su Jinxia and Shen Qianxue were rampant, and everyone had heard about them.
The Seventh Prince and Shen Qianxue address each other as brothers, so Su Jin might become the Seventh Prince's sister-in-law in the future.
Zhou Ji didn't seem to find anything wrong with it and said with a smile, "Before coming here, I was always curious about what kind of person Miss Su was that she could win the heart of my brother, who is as beautiful as a god. Now that I see her, she is indeed stunningly beautiful, beyond the reach of ordinary people."
Shen Qianxue's expression remained unchanged. She was not embarrassed by the Seventh Prince's teasing and replied generously, "Your Highness is joking."
Su Jin remained silent, her expression unreadable.
Actually, she didn't dare to speak, afraid that her words would be barbed and that she would prematurely reveal things she shouldn't have expressed.

The Seventh Prince nodded. "I trust you to handle things. It's good that this matter can be handled openly. It's also thanks to Miss Su's foresight."

Despite Zhou Ji's praise, Su Jin remained unmoved.
She felt utterly disgusted, even more so than when she was reborn and saw Nie Qingyi.
But to others, Su Jinxia looked like a terrified little girl who couldn't even speak.
Zhou Ji gave an awkward laugh.
Shen Qianxue glanced at Su Jinxia indifferently and said softly, "Go down."
Su Jin nodded and fled as if escaping.
Once outside, Su Jin took several deep breaths to calm herself down.
Shen Xi followed and poked Su Jin, "Aren't you usually so fierce? Why are you so scared when you see the prince?"
Su Jinxia ignored Shen Xi and ran away in a flash.
Zhou Ji didn't linger; he took the ice-accumulating grass and left.
At dinner time, Shen Qianxue brought eight hundred taels of silver to Tingyu Tower.
