Chapter 328: Vicious tongue?



"My surname is Hua. If you gentlemen don't mind, you can just call me Rong'er."

Compared to a few months ago, Hua Ronger's temperament became more calm. She had not looked at Chen Su since she came in.

Chen Su only looked up at the face as bright as a spring flower, without any impression in his mind, and he immediately lost interest.

At this time, dance music sounded, Hua Rong'er danced gracefully, and every move showed her charm.

"Master Shen, what do you think of this Miss Hua?" Master Fan looked at her with great interest, his eyes full of unconcealable amazement.

Chen Su pulled the corner of his mouth, "As long as Master Fan likes it."

Yi Zishu put down the wine cup in his hand and watched the woman dancing in front of him. His original discomfort gradually subsided. "This music and dance is really refreshing. It seems that Miss Rong'er has some skills."

"This Miss Rong'er has been in Beijing for only half a year, but she has already established herself in Yanchun Tower. How could she not have some skills?" A happy smile appeared on the face of another Lord Wang.

As soon as the words fell, danger arose. Hua Rong'er seemed to be tripped by something and fell towards Chen Su.

Chen Su neither dodged nor panicked, nor did he show any intention of helping. It didn't seem like he didn't react, but more like he was watching a show.

Hua Ronger's eyes swept across Chen Su's face, her slender waist suddenly twisted, and her whole body brushed past the wine table in front of Chen Su and fell heavily to the ground.

She only cried out in pain when she landed on the ground, and quickly got up again. The hair on her forehead was slightly scattered, adding to her fragility. She knelt in front of Shen Su, her voice flustered but still gentle and pleasant, "It was an unintentional mistake. Please forgive me, my lord."

Chen Su stood up and looked at Lord Wang, his eyes full of amusement, "Is this the ability Lord Wang was talking about?"

Lord Wang's face turned pale. He was slapped in the face the moment he said something. How could he explain himself?

Chen Su continued, "...I appreciate your advice. I have other matters to attend to. I will carefully consider what Lords Wang and Fan have said before making a decision. I will proceed first."

After saying that, he strode out of the house.

When Yi Zishu saw that he was about to leave, he quickly stood up and said, "Chen Huizhi, wait a moment..."

He bowed to the two adults and said, "I will take my leave first."

After saying that, he followed Chen Su away, leaving the room alone in silence.

Master Fan waved his hand impatiently, "Everyone, go down!"

Hua Ronger bit her lip and stood up. The moment she raised her eyes, her face was full of unwillingness, which was hidden under her forced calmness. She bowed and retreated.

She came to the railing and watched the figure coming down the stairs, a flicker of frustration in her eyes. She thought she knew Shen Su well enough. After all, he had saved her once before, and this time was no exception. By then, she would be able to leave an impression on Shen Su.

Who knew that I would miscalculate.

The moment she saw Chen Su's gaze, she knew that this fall would end up costing her more than she gained. To prevent the situation from getting worse, she tried her best to save herself and fell to the ground.

Thinking of this, her eyes dimmed for a moment, but she quickly cheered up again.

It seems that is the only way.

When she took one last glance downstairs, she happened to meet a pair of hawk-like eyes, and Hua Ronger felt a chill all over her body.

She quickly looked away and walked towards her room, constantly reminding herself to stay calm.

Downstairs, Yi Zishu followed Chen Su's gaze and saw people coming and going, and he didn't know who he was looking at.

He asked, "Chen Huizhi, how many people have asked you to come to a place like this before, and you've always declined? Why did you come this time?"

"Isn't Master Yi here too?"

Yi Zishu choked up, "I was drunk by them!"

"What a coincidence, I am also one of them."

Yi Zishu: "..." He really didn't know how much Shen Su could drink, as it seemed he had never seen him lose his composure before.

"Do you know that Hua Rong'er?"

Chen Su shook his head: "I don't know him."

"Then why are you so vicious? Hua Rong'er fell hard to the ground, which shows that she has no intention of clinging to you."

Shen Su gave him a strange look, "Venomous tongue?"

He retracted his gaze and continued, "I overestimated you. I originally thought that Master Yi Zishu, the Minister of Justice, was devoted to his wife and would never mess around with other women."

Yi Zishu's face instantly turned red, "Chen Su! Do you think I, Yi Zishu, have a good temper?!"

"Master Yi, please take care of yourself and don't get angry." Chen Su said slowly, "Hua Rong'er may have some skills, but what does it have to do with me? I only saw her fall to the ground before she finished her dance. How can you say she has superb skills?"

After saying that, Shen Su had already come to the carriage and leaned in.

Yi Zishu looked back at the sign of Yanchunlou and left quickly.

On the second night after returning to Beichuan County, Chen Huaixu and Jiang Fu slept in the same room. Jiang Fu seemed to have endless questions to ask, and the two talked until late at night.

Just as she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard Fu Yin ask, "Chen Huaixu, what do you think of Jiang Erlang?"

This question perked up Shen Huaixu, and she asked doubtfully: [What happened to my second brother?]

Fu Yin was silent for a moment before saying, "It's nothing. I just feel that although we are both sisters, he treats you and Jiang Wei a little differently."

Shen Huaixu was at a loss for words. [You've been reading too many books like this lately, haven't you? Why is everyone observing?]

Fu Yin was not particularly satisfied with her answer. He turned a page and said, "I am serious. You should take it seriously too."

Hearing this, Shen Huaixu couldn't help but perk up and think, "Second brother was the first person to know the secret of my space. Because of this, we fought side by side several times during our escape, and we have a tacit understanding. It's not surprising that we have a unique magnetic field for the two of us, right?"

"You think so?"

Shen Huaixu thought back to what he had just said, [What else?]

Fu Yin: "I don't think he thinks that way."

So what does he think?

Fu Yin: "...I won't tell you."

Chen Huaixu: [Okay, then tell me when you want to talk about it.]

Fu Yin was satisfied.

After a moment's thought, he added, "I know all your secrets, and you know all mine."

Shen Huaixu was helpless: [This also needs to be compared? ]

Fu Yin calmly uttered four words, "State the facts."

Okay, okay. At this point, Shen Huaixu started talking.

"Actually, I've always felt like my family should have noticed my change, but they didn't say anything, and I didn't feel comfortable explaining it. When I told Jiang Erlang and Qian Xiuzhu about the space, I was also taking a gamble—on people's hearts and my future."

When she was in a dilemma, she was thinking about her escape plan. Now she thinks that she was a bit reckless. If she hadn't done that, the journey of fleeing from the famine would definitely be much more difficult than what they had experienced.

"Your secret is beneficial to the two people who know it, and they can't take it away from you, so they are naturally happy to keep it for you."

【Futuan, you've become so powerful now! 】

Excited, Shen Huaixu called back Fu Yin's original name.

Fu Yin's face darkened, "My name is Fu Yin."

After saying this, he ignored Shen Huaixu's call.

For the first time, Fu Yin got angry.
