The young princess was to oversee the construction of the new school. She personally inspected all the furnishings in the courtyard to ensure that the entire school was exactly as she envisioned it.
Just then, Steward Zhou arrived with servants and a sedan chair, so Qin Chuan went back to the Prince of Yan's residence ahead of the young princess, leaving four female Imperial Guards to protect her.
The sedan chair landed at the entrance of the Prince's mansion. Qin Chuan dismissed the crowd of servants who were surrounding him and went back to his room alone, only to find a beautiful woman lingering in front of his door.
This woman is not Su Rushi, so who else could she be?
"Big sister."
"Brother-in-law, you're back."
Su Ru smiled and gathered her robes.
She wore a white embroidered silk dress with thin wings, underneath which was a red strapless top with mandarin ducks and butterflies. She wore a thin silk embroidered pleated skirt, and her hair was styled in a high bun. She still retained her charm.
The thin silk dress could not conceal the snow-white skin that her bodice could not hold back, and her breasts rose and fell quietly with her breath.
"Big sister, come in."
At this moment, Qin Chuan was already somewhat distracted and subconsciously invited Su Rushi into the room.
Su Rushi did not hesitate and gracefully stepped into the house.
"Big sister, please have a seat."
Qin Chuan moved a chair for Su Ru Shi, and then moved one for himself.
Su Ru didn't sit down immediately. Instead, she glanced at the furnishings in the room and said slowly, "Brother-in-law, there aren't any servants in this room. I'm afraid it's quite inconvenient..."
Qin Chuan took the parrot Xiao Ba out of the house to sunbathe, opened the cage, and let it go wherever it wanted, knowing it would come back on its own.
Then, back inside, she opened the refrigerator door and said, "Hey, it's hot, do you want an ice pop?"
Su Ru walked up to them, glanced at them, and laughed, "These things of yours are amazing!"
Qin Chuan took an ice cream, turned around, and handed it to her. He didn't expect her to be so close. A faint milky fragrance wafted out, but he couldn't tell if it came from the ice cream or something else.
Su Ru took the ice cream and, imitating Qin Chuan's eating style, licked it.
The two exchanged a smile, but no one knew why.
Qin Chuan recalled how he had seen her before, and at this moment he was somewhat unable to control his emotions, his mind filled with images from the past.
Qin Chuan stepped back slightly, but the two still bumped into each other.
Smelling a faint milky aroma, Qin Chuan licked the ice cream again.
Perhaps because she was bumped, she subconsciously took a step back and asked with a smile, "Shan'er, are you busy with the new school again?"
"Yes, I've assigned four female soldiers to protect her closely, so you can rest assured about her safety."
After saying that, Qin Chuan closed the refrigerator door and sat down in a chair.
"Please have a seat, ma'am."
"Brother-in-law, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, we, a widow and her child, wouldn't know what to do..." Su Ru said with a look of relief as she sat opposite him.
Qin Chuan poured her a cup of tea himself and said with a smile, "Sister, you're too kind. Taking care of you and your daughter is what I should do. Please don't be so polite in the future."
"Brother-in-law, if you say that, I'll feel even more ashamed..."
As she spoke, she stood up and gracefully bowed.
Qin Chuan looked at the fleeting white figure before his eyes, and his desire suddenly became uncontrollable. He stood up, helped Su Ru Shi up, put one arm around her, and said softly, "Big sister, don't be so polite."
Unexpectedly, Su Rushi hugged him tightly, sobbing as if releasing her emotions: "Brother-in-law... I have unspeakable suffering in my heart. If it weren't for Shan'er, I wouldn't want to live anymore. For more than ten years, I've been living like a widow. He's gone, and I still have to be a widow. Sometimes I think, it would be better to die..."
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Qin Chuan reached out and covered her mouth, saying, "What do you mean by 'dying'? You won't be a widow in the future."
"Brother-in-law, what do you mean by that?"
Su Ru said in a low voice, but she could clearly feel each other's heartbeats, which were strong and excited.
"I won't let you be a widow."
Su Rushi raised her head slightly, exclaimed in surprise, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief. She then bit her bright red lips, turned her face away, her cheeks flushed, and said shyly, "Isn't this inappropriate? What if Fifth Sister and Shan'er find out..."
Seeing that she turned her face away but was reluctant to let go of the hug, Qin Chuan deliberately smiled and said, "That's true, then let's just forget about it. Let's not see each other again in the future to avoid awkwardness..."
After saying that, he let go of her hand and prepared to open the door to see the guest out.
Unexpectedly, Su Rushi gripped his hands tightly, saying, "Just this once..."
...
Afterwards, the two of them, exhausted, chatted listlessly, reminiscing about what had just happened.
"Big sister, I think I've fallen in love with you..."
"Hate!"
Su Ru glared at him fiercely, but a smile she couldn't suppress played on her lips.
A moment later, Su Rushi, her face still flushed, got up and started making the bed.
Seeing her in a daze, Qin Chuan laughed and said, "Never mind, just throw it away."
Su Ru couldn't help but roll her eyes at him again, her ears turning bright red, thinking to herself, "...It's all your fault..."
Qin Chuan lit a cigarette and took a puff, his mind still savoring the memory.
Su Rushi's figure is absolutely stunning...
She's more terrifying than other women in this respect...
Thinking of this, he stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray and murmured, "Big sister, you said it would only be this once..."
He still had to deliver grain to the Empress; if there was no grain, Xiao Li would find out sooner or later.
But when he looked up, he suddenly realized that Su Ru had gone out and the bed sheet had disappeared.
After a while, the bed sheet was seen hanging outside his room, and Su Rushi went back to her room.
He also opened the window to let the smell out...
...
When the young princess returned, she suddenly saw her mother sitting blankly in the main room. Afraid that her mother would see her clothes and be scolded again, she tiptoed into her room.
After changing into a set of formal everyday clothes, she came out again and went into the main room.
"mother!"
"mother!"
After calling twice, Su Rushi finally responded.
"Mother, what's wrong? Are you alright?" the young princess asked worriedly.
"Shan'er, Mother is alright."
The young princess glanced at her mother's face with some unease. "Hmm, why is her complexion so rosy? Like a young girl in the throes of first love... how strange..."
Something seemed off, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it...
So he asked, "Has Fifth Aunt's husband come by?"
“Uh…no…” Su Ru stammered when she heard Qin Chuan mentioned, “He…must be…very busy.”
"oh."
The young princess said "Oh," but muttered to herself, "I asked him to come and keep you company, but he didn't come today. I'll go and ask him to come tomorrow..."
After saying that, the young princess walked towards the courtyard in front.
Su Ru watched her daughter's retreating figure, a helpless smile playing on her lips. "Shan'er, please don't..."
But by the time she whispered those words, the young princess had already walked far away and didn't hear her...
