"What is Madam thinking about?" Yu Shuo was curious but also a little unhappy when he saw Qin Su staring blankly after returning, her eyes no longer on him.
What caught her attention?
The Queen Mother said: A wife is meant to be cherished, and loyalty is also essential. If he is loyal to his wife, she will be loyal to him.
Now his wife seems to have been bewitched by something.
Does that mean I won't be with him anymore?
The simple-minded Yu Shuo didn't have a head full of lewd thoughts; he only knew that people who played important roles in life might leave.
Qin Su shook her head at him, without mentioning what she had just discovered.
But Yu Shuo was not at ease. He held Qin Su's arm, completely ignoring the stares of others.
"Sister, he's so clingy," Luo Zhi said with a hint of jealousy. She also wanted to be that close to her sister.
"What's it to you? It's none of your business if I'm clinging to my wife!" Yu Shuo glared at her, then gestured to Chongyang to get the woman out.
"Don't touch me." Luo Zhi warned Chongyang, "If you dare lay a hand on me, I'll poison you."
Chongyang's hand immediately stopped; no one but her could cure the poison of the Poison Master Luo Zhi. Running into her would be bad luck.
Qin Su rubbed her temples. "Miss Luo, why don't you go back first? I have something to attend to here."
Luo Zhi, feeling wronged, glared at Yu Shuo resentfully before reluctantly getting up and leaving.
Once everyone else was in the room, Yu Shuo buried his face in Qin Su's neck and said in a muffled voice, "Does Su Su also think I'm too clingy?"
Yu Shuo is being incredibly sensitive right now. Even though she hasn't said or done anything, he can't stand it.
"No way." She couldn't help but reach out and pinch the soft flesh on Yu Shuo's cheek.
The man being pinched stared at her blankly, looking extremely obedient.
He became increasingly dependent on the woman beside him. From the very first meeting, he felt so close to her, and he liked her very much.
He couldn't explain why he liked her, attributing it to his amnesia, the burying of his memories of caring for her, and the only thing left for him was his subconscious.
Qin Su didn't notice Yu Shuo's inner thoughts. She gently pushed him away, got up, and went out.
She had to ask Luo Zhi when she could leave. She had just thought that Yu Shuo had sent her away to say something, so she let it go.
Nothing important happened.
Luo Zhi said he would stay at the auction for a while longer, saying it was for some medicinal herbs.
It was already past midnight when I left the auction house, but the black market was still brightly lit and bustling with people.
Perhaps now is the busiest time for the black market.
Qin Su asked Luo Zhi whether she wanted to come tomorrow or leave with them today. Luo Zhi said she would leave her address and come tomorrow, and Qin Su did not insist.
It was getting too late, and it wouldn't be appropriate to call anyone else.
Back at the inn, Chongyang knocked on the door, holding a box.
"Madam, the things that Master sold have been redeemed."
"Bring it in."
Chongyang pushed open the door and came in to see his master disheveled. He coughed lightly and looked away.
Is my lady getting impatient? Surely it's not time for our marital relations, Master?
No matter what he was thinking, Chongyang didn't show it. He put the box down and left.
Qin Su asked Yu Shuo to take off his outer robe while she went to get the box.
The token representing his identity had always been with her, so there probably wasn't anything important in this box.
Huh? What's this?
Qin Su took out a red embroidered purse from the box; it was clearly a woman's purse. How could Yu Shuo have such a thing?
Wait, he said earlier that Zhao Xiaocui sold the purse, is this it?
Was it important to Yu Shuo?
Qin Su clearly didn't recognize that the purse was hers, since this kind of design was hardly uncommon in the capital. It was safe to say that every noblewoman had one or two, and even maids might have them.
The fabric of Qin Su's purse is soft, smooth, and lustrous, indicating that it is made of high-quality material.
She clutched her purse, her expression not looking too good.
Inside the box was a black jade pendant, clearly a gift from Qin Su. Besides that, there was a small robe and a thumb ring; that was it.
The money was probably already taken by Zhao Xiaocui, and Qin Su had no intention of getting it back. Zhao Xiaocui was indeed a bit snobbish, but it was a fact that she saved Yu Shuo.
There seemed to be another pouch inside, almost exactly the same as the one in her hand.
How could Yu Shuo have a woman's purse on him?
She wasn't very happy.
"Do you remember whose this is?" Qin Su handed two purses to Yu Shuo.
Yu Shuo reached out and took it, carefully and tenderly placing it close to his body.
But the person shook their head, "I don't remember, feelings are important."
Qin Su's brow twitched violently, and she took a step and walked outside.
What can she do to him? He's lost his memory; there's no point in saying anything else.
"Madam?" Chongyang asked, puzzled, when he saw Qin Su come out.
It's almost midnight and you're still not resting?
"Lian Tao, ask the innkeeper to open another room."
Chongyang: ? ? ?
Lian Tao obeyed and went downstairs quickly.
"What happened? Did Madam and Master quarrel?"
Qin Su glanced at him and said sarcastically, "Can he even get into an argument looking like this?"
Immediately afterward, the door behind them opened, and Yu Shuo grabbed Qin Su's wrist urgently, "Su Su, where are you going?"
Qin Su held her breath, but couldn't vent it on Yu Shuo in his current state, so she could only shake off his hand and walk silently toward Prince Tuoba's room.
Yu Shuo followed closely behind, taking small, quick steps like a child.
Prince Tuoba was being served by servants. She came over to inquire about the basic situation, then turned to go to Zhao Xiaocui's side, only to bump into Yu Shuo's chest.
He was tall and very close to her; she could barely see the light when she bumped into his arms.
Yu Shuo gently supported her waist, his voice muffled and aggrieved, "Susu, don't be angry, okay?"
How could Qin Su not be angry? She had traveled a long way to find him, coming all this way right after giving birth, only to find out he was carrying someone else's money. And now that she had found him, she cherished him so much.
Did it happen during her pregnancy?
Qin Su was so angry that her head was spinning.
She had heard before that men would find other women while a woman was pregnant, and she believed it, but she didn't believe that Yu Shuo would do such a thing. However, her wallet was the only thing that mattered.
"Whose purse is it?" she asked softly, as if she had said it unconsciously.
"I...I don't remember. But it just feels very, very important."
Chongyang, who was following closely behind, listened to all of these words.
Before Qin Su and Yu Shuo got married, he followed Yu Shuo around almost every step of the way.
He did have a vague recollection of the purse.
Qin Su was even angrier. She wanted to push him away forcefully, but she couldn't bring herself to do it. In his current state, she was afraid she would bump into something if she exerted too much force.
"...Is it a red embroidered purse?" Chongyang tentatively interjected.
Qin Su pushed Yu Shuo away, but he still clung to her unwillingly, as if he wanted to become a human pendant.
"You know? When did this happen?" Qin Su didn't expect Chongyang to explain anything, after all, Chongyang was Yu Shuo's man.
