"who?"
Hearing the commotion outside, Su Miao couldn't help but raise her voice.
Tao'er, who was outside the door, took the things, thanked her, and then walked back with a smile.
The aroma of food quickly filled the room.
“Miss, it was given to you by the eldest young master!” Tao’er said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Su Miao's face was filled with disbelief.
But because the smell was so incredibly enticing, she couldn't resist taking her silver needle and approaching the jar of food.
"He wouldn't be trying to drug me so he can send me back, would he?"
After all, Shen Changji hadn't agreed to let her come last night.
She contacted Xie Qin privately, and with Xie Qin's help, she was able to come along today...
“I don’t think so! I even think the young master is quite happy that you’re here, Miss! He just doesn’t say it!” Tao’er said as she took the contents of the jar out.
After all, a person like Shen Changji wouldn't easily reveal their inner feelings.
He is neither like Prince Xie nor Prince Liu.
Su Miao took out the silver needles and checked them one by one to make sure there were no problems before she began to eat.
She was hungry after traveling all day.
Xie Qin just delivered roasted pigeon, while Shen Changji delivered roasted rabbit.
Besides a roasted rabbit, there was also a bowl of steamed egg custard.
Su Miao didn't eat the rabbit first, but gently scooped up a spoonful of steamed egg custard.
The taste immediately caught her eye.
"This steamed egg custard is delicious! Tao'er, you should try it!" Su Miao said excitedly.
“This is something the young master likes to eat, so it can’t be made too badly!” Tao’er said.
What does Shen Changji like to eat?
Su Miao looked at the things in front of her, and a slight ripple stirred in her heart.
She hadn't expected Shen Changji to bring her food...
Looking at the perfectly roasted rabbit, Su Miao's memories returned to those years.
Someone else used to bake it for her like that... but they're no longer here.
Many years have passed in the blink of an eye, and she hasn't eaten roasted rabbit in a long time...
It's not that there aren't any in the capital, but she... doesn't dare to eat them.
Su Miao felt a mix of emotions, but at this moment, she was moved.
Tao'er turned her head and saw that Su Miao's eyes were red. She quickly asked, "Miss, are you alright?"
Judging from her appearance, she's probably thinking about something sad again.
"It's alright, let's eat!"
As she spoke, Su Miao smiled and placed the torn rabbit leg into Tao'er's bowl.
"Miss, don't think too much about it..." Tao'er looked at Su Miao and couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
"Hmm... I don't want to think about sad things. I need to think about how to help the people of Zhangshui City escape their suffering and illness..."
As Su Miao spoke, she forced back her surging emotions and stuffed a mouthful of rice into her mouth.
"It's definitely possible, Miss's medical skills are so excellent!"
Su Miao nodded, lowered her eyes and continued to eat the rice in her bowl, but her heart ached faintly.
She can definitely do it...
We must not let our medical skills go to waste; we must use them where they are truly useful.
Thinking it over, Su Miao took several deep breaths before asking, "You just said... he likes steamed egg custard?"
Tao'er immediately knew who "he" Su Miao was referring to.
"Yes, the young master likes it!"
Upon hearing this, Su Miao gave a soft "hmm".
Tao'er wanted to ask, but it wasn't appropriate for her to.
After finishing her dinner, Su Miao quickly went to bed, thinking that she would have to get up early to travel the next day.
Before leaving the house, Tao'er couldn't help but look back at Su Miao.
Su Miao's back was slender, her petite body curled up in the blankets, a sight that made one's heart ache.
Tao sighed and carefully closed the door.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Xie Qin was drunk and slumped on the table, half asleep, with a pile of empty wine jugs beside him.
"Ziji... I'm not drinking anymore... I'm so sleepy... Let's discuss this tomorrow..."
He really couldn't drink anymore and wanted to sleep.
"good."
Chen Changji, holding the wine pot, responded without hesitation.
Even though he had drunk quite a bit, he was still not drunk at all.
Before Shen Changji could say his second word, Xie Qin's breathing could be heard as he slept.
He glanced at Xie Qin, then opened the door and went out.
"Young Master Xie is drunk and probably won't be able to return to his own room tonight. This is also a guest room, so let him rest here tonight."
He spoke calmly, his eyes dark and his expression serene.
"yes!"
The place where he drank and discussed matters with Xie Qin was on the second floor, while the room where he was arranged to sleep was on the third floor.
After giving his instructions, Shen Changji went upstairs.
When he reached his room, Shen Changji couldn't help but glance to the side.
Su Miao's room was already dark.
After standing there silently for two seconds, he couldn't help but raise his hand towards the door of Su Miao's room.
But after thinking about it, he put his hand down and went into his own room.
After taking a bath, Shen Changji lay on the bed. When he entered Su Miao's room today, he noticed that their beds were facing each other.
If it weren't for the wall separating them, they would be facing each other head to head...
Perhaps it was the alcohol taking effect, but Chen Changji closed his eyes, his mind filled with images of Su Miao, as if her unique fragrance still lingered in his nostrils, and the feeling in his heart was very subtle...
This feeling kept swirling in his mind.
It was quite some time before he finally fell asleep.
...
The next day at daybreak, Liu Jiaojiao couldn't wait to visit Old Madam Shen in the capital.
Although Shen Changji is not currently in the capital, she is still considered to be his fiancée, and according to custom, she should get closer to the Duke's mansion, especially Old Madam Shen.
