Chapter 173 I Don't Understand



Shang Tian dragged Su Qian back to the Shang family home and forced her to drink a bowl of ginger tea before asking, "Why are you in such a hurry to build the city wall, Qian?"

Su Qian shook her head and said, "I don't know."

She just felt that it would be better to build it sooner rather than later.

Shang Tian looked at her and fell into deep thought.

Both Linhai City and Jizhou are located by the sea, but there is a high mountain between Jizhou and the sea. If you want to see the sea, you have to climb over that mountain.

As a result, people gradually forgot about it.

"Ah Qian, which part of the city wall do you think should be enclosed first?"

Su Qian tilted her head, thought for a moment, and said, "Let's go by the sea."

Shang Tian suddenly stood up; it was indeed so.

He paced back and forth in the room a few times, sighed, and said, "We must take Songdu first, and then immediately build the city walls."

Although he didn't know what was in the sea, Shang Tian knew he would never underestimate it.

He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.

He can't afford to make a rash decision; both Jizhou and Linhai City depend on him now.

"I'm going out for a bit."

"Oh." No need to drink ginger tea again. ⊙0⊙

Su Qian buried herself in the pile of crabs again.

"Host, why did you scare Shang Tian?"

"What?" Su Qian asked, puzzled.

She didn't scare Shang Tian!

Jingjing said with some hesitation, "I didn't detect anything wrong at the beach."

Su Qian smiled and said, "From now on, you'll stay with A-Tian."

"Host." At this moment, Jingjing was inwardly cursing. What did Su Qian mean by that?

Are we going to have to mess with it again?

Waaah, it hasn't been causing any trouble lately, it's been busy steaming crabs for Su Qian.

"Hmm?" Su Qian said calmly, "Ah Tian is short-handed, so give them some ideas."

It was originally a bandit stronghold in a remote mountain village, so what kind of strategist could it have?

Even if they bring back some people now, it might not be enough, and they also have to guard against Peng San's men having ulterior motives.

But Su Qian was unwilling to use her brain.

Then we'll have to go and keep quiet.

After Jingjing understood Su Qian's intentions, she frowned, "But if I leave, who will take care of the host?"

Its host is so lazy, won't it die of laziness at home if no one is watching over it?

"If Aunt Zhang were still here, that would be wonderful," Jingjing couldn't help but sigh.

Su Qian stiffened slightly and said, "The dead cannot be brought back to life, so don't be too sad."

Jingjing: "......" Who's really sad?

How could an AI like it possibly have feelings like sadness?

It has lost so many hosts, yet it has never been sad.

It's just... just a little... confusing.

She kept her head down quietly, looking somewhat dejected.

Su Qian slapped it out the door, saying, "Go find Ah Tian."

Don't disturb her while she's eating crab.

Jingjing sighed helplessly and slowly flew towards Li Zai's house.

Su Qian looked at the crabs in front of her and suddenly lost her appetite. "Auntie," she called softly.

Actually, she never understood why Aunt Zhang had to die, or why Shang Tian didn't stop her.

Isn't living more important than anything else?

For example, she really wants to... really wants to live.

Even if there is no one in this world who loves her.

There was a sudden knock on the door. Su Qian touched the corner of her eye; it was a little wet. She wiped it away before standing up and opening the door.

Looking at the Lu Renbing (a type of pastry) by the door, Su Qian frowned slightly and said, "Shang Tian is not home."

"Beautiful lady." Lu Renbing's cheeks flushed instantly; the beauty was so close to her.

⊙0⊙

Could she perhaps exchange a few more words with the beautiful woman?

“I’m not looking for… I’m looking for Shang Tian.”
