Xiao Yuan couldn't help but look at her.
After listening to Song San's detailed report, he learned that Su Xuerong must have noticed Chen's unusual behavior, which was why she arranged for Song San and others to enter the mansion.
It was precisely because of this that the guards were able to discover the poison in Chen's hand in time and secretly replace it while she was asleep, so that Chen would pour a bottle of water into the well.
“My wife is very vigilant; otherwise, if Song San and the others hadn’t entered the Su residence, they might not have been able to stop the poisoning.”
Su Xuerong smiled faintly: "It's just a habit I've developed over the years..."

Xiao Yuan stared at her and said softly, "If you don't mind, you can still consider me Ge Erlang..."
He would rather hear her call him "Mr. Ge" in a sweet voice than maintain his current proper reserve.
Su Xuerong looked up at him and saw a glint of light in his eyes that she couldn't hide. She hurriedly looked away and changed the subject: "Where is Mr. Ling? Didn't he come back with His Highness?"
