Su Jin thought for a moment, then settled for second best, "The world is getting more and more chaotic these days, and countless people die unnatural deaths every day. Who knows, maybe one day I'll need you to save my life?"
Shen Qianxue nodded, "That makes sense. It's more reasonable to repay a life-saving debt with one's own. If you value your life, I might as well protect you for the rest of your life."
"A lifetime of peace?"
Easier said than done!
Su Jin's nose stung slightly, and her eyes churned with emotion. "Don't brag."
Shen Qianxue smiled gently, her brows completely relaxing.
"As long as you are a law-abiding person, I will give you this promise."
Su Jinxia was slightly stunned, then used a big laugh to cover up the bitterness in her eyes.
"Great! I value my life more than anything. It's so good to be alive."
Su Jinxia suddenly clasped her hands together, her eyes gleaming with a different kind of light.
"Since you're going to protect me, I definitely can't stray too far from you, lest I be unable to provide the necessary support later. Let's go, let's go stay at an inn!"
Shen Qianxue... Is that what I meant?
Sigh, never mind, let's leave it at that for now. We'll find her a suitable place to stay when we get back to Lin'nan.
If it weren't for this little girl, he really wouldn't have been able to get through this difficult time so easily.
Meanwhile, Yang Jiaoruo, who was observing from the shadows, frowned deeply and stared intently at Su Jinxia.
What's going on?
Why is this young master, who is usually serious and doesn't like to get close to people, chatting so happily with a woman?
It even made her feel a slight sense of intimacy!
Su Jin helped Shen Qianxue leave the clinic, and the two stopped when they passed a clothing store.
"Your clothes are too worn out, let's buy two sets," Shen Qianxue said softly.
The shopkeeper approached them enthusiastically, and upon seeing their disheveled appearance, he knew that business would be good today.
"You two are looking to choose ready-made clothes, right? Come in and pick some out."
Shen Qianxue casually pointed to a style, "Give me two dark-colored ones."
"Young master has excellent taste; these are the best clothes we have here." The shopkeeper smiled, his eyes crinkling.
Shen Qianxue looked down at Su Jinxia.
Su Jinxia instantly understood his meaning, her eyes lighting up with excitement, "Buy one for me too?"
Seeing her happy little face, Shen Qianxue couldn't help but smile and nod.
Su Jin said arrogantly, "Then I want the most expensive one too!"
The shopkeeper quickly replied, "Miss, look over here. These two dresses are made of top-quality fabric that was just imported from the South. They are soft and silky, and the styles are the most fashionable right now."
Su Jin lowered her gaze and couldn't help but admire them. One was a pale yellow embroidered dress, and the other was a white-trimmed red jacket. Both were very eye-catching.
In comparison, what she was wearing could only be described as tattered clothes.
To think that she, the dignified Lady of Liuli, had never experienced a few days of luxurious life.
Shen Qianxue took out some silver and handed it to the shopkeeper, saying, "Take it all."
The two picked up the wrapped clothes, turned around, and left the clothing store.
Su Jin smiled so wide her mouth stretched all the way to her ears.
However, when Su Jin raised her eyes, she caught sight of a cold, icy face in the alley ahead.
Yang Jiaoruo?
This evil spirit found us so quickly!
