Su Xi looked at him in disbelief, her face stiffening.
Duan Min tugged at her hand, looking at the man with displeasure: "If this young master doesn't agree, he doesn't agree. Why make things so difficult for my wife, a mere woman?"
Mu Bai stared blankly at the unfamiliar man, his eyes showing no emotion whatsoever.
"Oh."
Since arriving in Nan'an and becoming a famous general, Duan Min had never been so slighted. Anger flashed in his eyes, but he forcibly restrained himself.
Since they weren't in Nan'an, he and the princess came here because of the faint memory. They brought few people with them, so it was less likely they would cause trouble on the road.
Moreover, Duan Min felt that the slender woman's back in the blur was probably his wife.
Having already developed some affection for Princess Suxi, Duan Min pursed his lips, no longer considering the possibility that he had actually married a wife in the past.
However, there really wasn't any better accommodation in this small town, so Duan Min still wanted to try his best to provide a good place for the princess who was willing to come with him to Dongwei to regain her memories.
“Young master, my wife has never stayed in this desolate place before. She really can’t bear the hardship. Could you please make room for her?”
Hearing Duan Min say that, Su Xi showed a touched expression.
However, Mu Bai remained unmoved.
Su Xi had lost all the goodwill she had felt for this handsome young man's face. She stood next to Duan Min, glaring at Mu Bai, and was furious.
She couldn't understand why her stunning beauty, which amazed so many people in the kingdom, didn't move any men at all.
She was somewhat embarrassed and annoyed.
“Young Master Mu, there’s no need to say anything more. Madam and Master, this inn already has our people staying, and there is really no room left. Madam and Master, please find another place.”
A clear and captivating female voice came through the air.
Su Xi suddenly saw the man who had been cold to her just moments before, and immediately softened her expression as she turned to look at the direction from which the woman's voice came.
Su Xi was furious, but also curious about what kind of woman could make the man who had been so indifferent to her change his attitude so drastically. She turned her head and glanced over casually.
That one look truly stunned them.
The woman in the yellow dress, being supported by a maid, happened to be wearing the same color as her, but her appearance was so stunning that it left people speechless.
The girl had no makeup on, and her black hair was simply tied up in a bun at the back. A forsythia hairpin was inserted into her hair bun, adorned with a few small white pearl flowers. She was already breathtakingly beautiful.
The appearance of the stunningly beautiful woman instantly transformed this humble inn into a magnificent and luxurious place.
Su Xi's expression changed. How could there be such a beautiful woman?
Su Xi subconsciously glanced at Duan Min beside her, the prince consort she had her eye on. Sure enough, she saw the man staring blankly at the beautiful young woman in the distance.
Su Xi was unaware of how ugly her face looked. She turned her head away, unwilling to look at the woman who had completely overshadowed her, and said to Duan Min, "Husband, let's leave. I don't want to stay here anymore."
Duan Min was woken up by her and realized that he was stunned by the appearance of the unfamiliar young woman. His face stiffened.
Xie Ping looked at the two of them and walked over unhappily. "Madam, let's eat quickly and ignore other troubles."
Upon hearing Xie Ping mention the two crucial words "madam," the two realized that this exceptionally beautiful young woman was already married, and her husband was an outstanding gentleman, even surpassing Duan Min in some respects, possessing an innate air of nobility.
Su Xi's confidence had been almost completely crushed. She gritted her teeth and forcefully pulled Duan Min out.
Looking at the group of people who walked out, Qingyin's eyes remained completely unmoved as she gazed into the distance.
Even if that man was her ex-husband who made her a widow.
Compared to that, the woman was the female lead. Unexpectedly, the plot has reached the point where the male lead wants to regain his memories, and the female lead follows him to Dongwei.
Qingyin was somewhat surprised, not expecting the plot to unfold so quickly.

"What's wrong with Qingqing?" Xie Ping asked his young wife with concern.
Qingyin shook her head. "It's nothing, I'm just too tired from the journey."
Xie Ping didn't think too much about it, only assuming that his wife had just had a hard journey. He took a few pastries and carefully placed them in front of her.
"Eat a little bit, this pastry is a bit sour, it can stimulate your appetite, but don't harm your health."
"Okay, I understand." Qingyin smiled gently.
Meanwhile, Duan Min, who had left the inn with Su Xi and settled in with a farmer's family after paying them, sat on a stool and, recalling the stunning beauty he had seen during the day, fell into a daze.
The girl's face always seemed vaguely familiar to him.
Upon seeing Xie Ping, he felt a strange sense of hostility.
Duan Min suddenly felt as if he had lost something important.
