Chapter 178 Don't Bother
Su Shengsheng saw Xie Xuan in black clothes, like an elegant black panther, lurking beside the tea table, ready to strike.
But I saw his slender fingers gently turning the agarwood ring.
It was just an ordinary action that Su Shengsheng had seen before, but seeing it happen again made her inexplicably frightened.
"I have a guest today, so it's inconvenient for me to see you."
After all, she had discussed marriage with Mr. Bai, so it would be better not to meet him at this time.
But then he heard Brother Bao from outside say hesitantly, "Mr. Bai said he was here to deliver medicine to Shopkeeper Su."
Bao Er privately asked Su Shengsheng what to call her.
Su Shengsheng just let them keep everything as it was and there was no need to make any changes.
But it still sounded a bit harsh to Xie Xuan's ears. "Let him in."
Bao Er, who heard Xie Xuan's words outside, couldn't help but tremble in his heart and responded hurriedly.
He had already told Master Bai that the prince came with the princess today.
But who would have thought that Mr. Bai said that it was because he knew this that he came to pay a visit.
Well, he stopped it.
As for the rest, just leave it to fate!
Su Shengsheng frowned slightly, and felt a little suffocated when she saw Xie Xuan remain silent.
Is she his property now?
Completely disregarding her feelings.
The person who looked as if he was circling his own plate and casting a look at outsiders as if an announcement.
Su Shengsheng sighed silently.
She had to end this kind of day soon...
Bai Shuo seemed to know what he was going to face and saluted them respectfully.
Hearing him call her "Princess", Su Shengsheng felt a little sad.
Even if she could do it again, she would never have imagined that this would be the outcome between them.
"Princess, this is the medicine I prepared. It will slowly relieve the symptoms of the cold poison."
Xie Xuan did not ignore the newly prepared medicine.
Because where there is new there is old.
Even though he knew that she was using Bai Shuo to block him, he couldn't help but let his eyes turn cold.
"From now on, Doctor Bai won't have to worry about it anymore."
Xie Xuan stood up and slowly embraced Su Shengsheng, "I will find a doctor to take care of the princess."
Su Shengsheng lowered her eyes and turned her head away slightly.
Bai Shuo glanced at Su Shengsheng's jade-white face, then looked at Xie Xuan, who exuded a cold and charming aura. He said casually, "The doctor that the prince hired for the princess is naturally very skilled."
He put the medicine bottle back in his hand and looked back at Su Shengsheng with a normal expression. "In a few days, the merchant ship will set sail for another country. Before leaving, I want to hand over all matters related to cooperation with the princess."
Bai Shuo...is going to pursue his father's dream...
Su Shengsheng lowered her eyes, which looked a little dim.
I don’t know when she can leave and go out to see more.
"Have a safe journey, Shopkeeper Bai." She paused for a moment and then looked up.
Bai Shuo smiled, bowed respectfully, and presented something.
"This is the product of years of hard work by my father. Now, inspired by the princess, I am giving this painting to her, hoping that the business line will be smooth."
Su Shengsheng's fingertips trembled slightly, and she didn't dare to shift her gaze even half an inch. She refused for a moment before taking it as usual.
He once told her that no matter whether they could end up together or not, they would still be friends.
Even if he failed to escape with the fourth sister, he still had a way out...
The scroll in my hand felt strangely heavy.
Bai Shuo still had a proper smile on his face. "The express delivery line is complete. Princess, please write to the storekeepers in various places for cooperation."
This was the plan they initially deployed.
It was only due to many accidents that the trip was delayed again and again.
By now, the car carrying Ji Yanli must have arrived near the imperial capital, and they can start now.
Su Shengsheng knew that Bai Shuo was uncomfortable talking because Xie Xuan was beside her, so she responded, "Thank you, Shopkeeper Bai."
Since Xie Xuan allowed her to do business, she didn't have to be so serious.
Bai Shuo bowed again, "I haven't congratulated the prince and princess on their wedding yet."
Xie Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Since Shopkeeper Bai is going on a long journey, and I have to bring the princess back home tomorrow, I won't see you off any longer."
In the tea room, there is only the warm fragrance of tea, flowing slowly...
Bai Shuo smiled and said, "I will take my leave first. Please take care, Your Majesty and Princess."
Once he left, the rumors about them at Tianqian Pass would have died down.
If Xie Xuan had not saved the Su family with the golden medal of immunity from death, he might not have been willing to withdraw!
Bai Shuo finally looked at Su Shengsheng and nodded slightly.
I believe that with her intelligence, she will not fail to see his hidden tricks.
No matter what choice she makes in the future, he is willing to help her.
"Manager Bai, please take care of yourself too."
Although Su Shengsheng didn't want to implicate him anymore, since he came to her house specifically to deliver this picture, in order not to make him worry, she might as well accept it.
In this way, he can go to other countries to realize his ambitions with peace of mind.
With Xie Xuan beside them, neither of them said anything more.
After the handover was completed, Bai Shuo left.
The room became quiet again.
Su Shengsheng walked to the tea table and silently spread out the scroll.
This dynasty had no satellites, and the map showed many undeveloped areas, but it did outline the trade routes to various countries.
Xie Xuan walked to her side and silently scanned the map.
Su Shengsheng knew it, but was not worried about anything.
Even if Xie Xuanwu's strength was off the charts, he couldn't split his forces into several groups and go to the key points of various countries to snipe her.
The last time she failed to escape was only because the mastermind behind the scenes and Tuoba Ye had not been eliminated, so she chose India.
This time, she already had a plan to deal with it, so she naturally no longer had to choose a single option.
Seeing that she had been looking at it for a long time, Xie Xuan gently placed his hand on the picture and said, "You have to go back tomorrow. You are tired today. You have to go back to the mansion to prepare gifts later. Why don't we go back early?"
Su Shengsheng did not refute, but put the scroll into the dark room.
Seeing this, Xie Xuan didn't say much, but took her in his arms and walked out.
Su Shengsheng casually asked him, "General Xie, are there any hidden enemies in Nanzhao?"
The places where the clues were broken all had some connection with the Nanzhao Kingdom, which made her doubt this place.
Xie Xuan naturally knew what she was going to ask.
It was rare to see her take the initiative to ask about him, "We'll talk in the car."
On the way back to Chiyan City, Xie Xuan told him everything in detail, even the past between the Qilin Army and the Nanzhao Kingdom.
Until returning to the palace, Su Shengsheng didn't find anything obviously noteworthy from him.
In Su Shengsheng's mind, she kept thinking about her journey to Tianqian Pass and her encounter with Xie Xuan, but she didn't notice anything unusual.
After dinner, she awkwardly remembered her secondary purpose for going to the teahouse...
She hasn't bathed since coming down from Lingshan Mountain.
It was Xie Xuan who followed her almost every step of the way...
I wanted to take a refreshing dip in the hot spring today to relieve my fatigue.
But when he followed her and discovered the secret room, and Mr. Bai came to give her the map, she had completely forgotten about it.
Although there is a hot spring pool in this dormitory that leads directly to the hot spring, it is several times better than her artificial hot spring.
But……
Su Shengsheng looked at Xie Xuan who would glance at her from time to time.
As a great general, is there nothing for him to do?
What are you staring at her for?
Fortunately, the wedding leave is only three days, and it is time for him to return to the barracks.
