When the people saw Situ Zhao like this, they became even more frightened and no one dared to approach him.
Cui Mixue looked at Situ Zhao like this. It was not right to persuade him, nor was it right not to persuade him. She could only sigh with an unfathomable expression.
Probably because he had just found Su Mengyan, Situ Yao was very caring towards Su Mengyan along the way.
He was afraid that it would get hot if he held it in his hands, and afraid that it would melt if he put it in his mouth. It can be said that he doted on Su Mengyan very much.
Su Mengyan was a little embarrassed about Situ Yao's changes at first, but as time went by, she gradually got used to it.
When everyone was having dinner together in a random pub, Cui Mixue's eyes were always on Situ Yao.
Not only did he meticulously prepare the food for Su Mengyan, he even carefully picked out the fish bones one by one. Furthermore, Song Ming and the other guards were extremely respectful to Su Mengyan, and she seemed to be treated like a little princess by them.
Compared with Su Mengyan, looking at himself and Situ Zhao, they seemed like a burden to this group of people, always there and not there.
When Cui Mixue thought of this, she felt a little depressed.
She tilted her head and looked at Situ Zhao, only to see that he was waiting for the palace maids to serve him. He was only concerned with enjoying himself and didn't even bother to look at her. She felt uncomfortable in her heart.
It’s true that comparing yourself with others will make you angry.
After finishing the meal, everyone rested for a while and then prepared to set off.
Cui Mixue and Situ Zhao were sitting together in the carriage. The people around them were already drowsy from eating and drinking, and were dozing off next to them.
But Cui Mixue couldn't sleep at all.
She turned her head to look at Situ Zhao beside her, feeling even more aggrieved.
Why is Su Mengyan so lucky?
If Situ Yao was his...
Thinking of this, Cui Mixue felt very unwilling in her heart and clenched her fists tightly.
Song Ming and his companions were driving the carriage, talking and chatting, and it seemed that they were talking about Su Mengyan.
Cui Mixue was sitting in the carriage and vaguely heard Su Mengyan's name. She unconsciously leaned forward and listened carefully to a few words.
"I really didn't expect this Miss Su to be so brave. She actually dared to take the risk and sneak into the kiln alone."
When Cui Mixue heard this, her eyes lit up instantly.
It was Su Mengyan who sneaked into the kiln alone and found the trapped girls.
"Yes, Miss Su is brave and resourceful, she is truly a heroine!"
Hearing the words praising Su Mengyan, Cui Mixue's heart began to pound.
She rubbed her fingers, and there was a crackling sound between her finger bones. She really didn't expect that Su Mengyan would have such courage.
Thinking of this, she simply pulled open the curtain and stuck her head out.
Song Ming and his brother were talking excitedly when he suddenly saw Cui Mixue sticking her head out. He was a little at a loss for a moment.
The two grown men immediately shut up and stared at Cui Mixue stupidly.
When Cui Mixue saw her sticking her head out, the two men immediately shut up and smiled softly, "Why are you guys silent? Did I disturb you?"
Hearing this, Song Ming quickly waved his hands and said, "How could that be? It's just that Miss Cui suddenly stuck her head out and scared us."
Upon hearing this, Cui Mixue covered her lips and smiled, then looked up at Song Ming.
"I heard you talking in the carriage and was so mesmerized that I wanted to come out and listen to you carefully."
Song Ming scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and then said, "It's just nonsense, Miss Cui, don't take it to heart."
Cui Mixue's mind raced upon hearing this, and she asked, "Then I wonder if what you just said about Su Mengyan sneaking into the kiln alone and guiding His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to find the missing girl is true?"
When Song Ming heard this, he looked at Cui Mixue hesitantly, not knowing whether he should say it or not.
Seeing his hesitant expression, Cui Mixue smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry. Yan'er and I have always had a good relationship. I heard something about her, so I asked a question unconsciously."
Since Song Ming had only recently followed Situ Yao, he didn't know what had happened before.
Besides, although Su Mengyan and Cui Mixue don’t seem to be very close, they always greet each other with a smile.
Song Ming felt relieved as he thought about it, and then he said, "Of course this is true. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince disagreed at the time, and it was only after Miss Su strongly recommended herself that she was able to get it."
Cui Mixue listened to Song Ming's words and chuckled, "Then I wonder if Brother Song could tell me the details of what happened. I'm really curious."
Upon hearing this, Song Ming naturally would not refuse and directly told the story.
Cui Mixue listened to the whole story from beginning to end and had a general understanding of it.
Hearing that Situ Zhao seemed to be waking up in the carriage, he smiled at them and got into the carriage.
If you look closely, you can see that there seems to be a hint of madness in Cui Mixue's eyes.
Some little thoughts started to creep into her mind.
The group continued westward, heading straight for the capital. Sitting in the carriage, Situ Zhao became increasingly excited as he saw the city getting closer and closer.
Long before everyone set out from the post station, he had already sent people ahead to go to the capital to spread the news that he had solved a missing girl case.
He also described the scene of his cracking down on human traffickers in a vivid way, waiting to be welcomed by the people after returning to the capital.
When Situ Zhao thought of this, he unconsciously curled up the corners of his lips and laughed.
When the time comes, no one will cheer for Situ Yao, and who knows what his expression will be.
Su Mengyan looked at Situ Zhao, who seemed a little excited, and then curled her lips.
Seeing Su Mengyan's expression, Situ Yao pinched her nose and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why are you pouting so suddenly?"
Su Mengyan tilted her head and looked over at him. "Look at Situ Zhao. His thoughts are clearly written on his face. He's definitely thinking about how he can surpass you with his achievements in the capital and win His Majesty's praise."
After hearing Su Mengyan's words, Situ Yao raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Are you speaking up for me?"
Upon hearing this, Su Mengyan tilted her head and glanced at Situ Yao, but did not say a word.
Situ Yao looked at it and immediately agreed that Su Mengyan admitted that she was thinking about him.
He then gently raised the corners of his lips and rubbed Su Mengyan's head.
Su Mengyan saw him playing with his hair, then raised her head and looked at him, "Why aren't you anxious at all? It was you who was working hard on the investigation all along, and Situ Zhao just came here to take advantage. How can you swallow this anger?"
