Only after hearing her sister's story did Su Yushan learn about what had happened at the Zheng family recently.
After Su Jiafeng brought Xin'er to the Zheng family, he took care of her. During the day, when he went to work at the restaurant, he would have Yu Chan accompany her.
Although Yu Chan disliked Xin'er, she wouldn't go so far as to harm her. She simply kept Xin'er company for a while in this perfunctory manner.
Once she felt better, Su Jiafeng took her out to buy some clothes. On the way, Xin'er was terrified and kept looking back, saying that someone was following her.
Su Jiafeng looked left and right, observing for a long time but not seeing anyone suspicious. She then advised her not to be afraid, "Now that we are engaged, Princess Jin would not dare to harm you again. You can put your mind at ease."
"That's true, but she's ruthless. There's no guarantee she won't kill someone to cover it up." Although Xin'er escaped unscathed, she was still uneasy, feeling that Chen Feng wouldn't let her go easily and might try to assassinate her again.
Staying in the capital, she was always uneasy. In addition, she had a deep grudge against Su Gege. Even though it was indeed her mother's fault, her mother died because of Su Gege. Xin'er could never get over this knot in her heart and was unwilling to marry Su Jiafeng.
After much deliberation, Xin'er left a letter and quietly left the capital while Su Jiafeng was not at home.
"In the letter, she said that she would go to a relative's house in another city and would never return to the capital. She also said that she was very grateful for Jiafeng's kindness to her, but she felt that she was not good enough for Jiafeng. She hoped that he would not be affected by her affairs or tied down by this fake marriage, and that he could meet a good girl and have his own happiness."
After listening silently to Yu Chan's retelling, Su Yu Shan felt relieved, and her tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed. "Xin'er leaving is probably the best choice for everyone."
Xin'er finally stopped bothering Su Jiafeng, which was a great joy for Yu Chan. However, seeing that her sister did not ask about Xin'er's whereabouts anymore, Yu Chan asked curiously, "Sister, are you not going to pursue this any further?"
Previously, Su Yushan did hate Xin'er, but in recent days, she has come to terms with it. "My real enemy is Jin Minjing, but I am not qualified to take revenge yet. As long as Jiafeng does not marry Xin'er, I have nothing to worry about. As for whether Jin Minjing will let her go, and what will happen to her after she leaves the capital, that is up to her fate. I will not interfere."
The two sisters chatted for a while longer before Yu Chan got up to take her leave. Su Yu Shan invited her to stay for dinner, and Yu Chan also wanted to stay with her sister a little longer, but she had some concerns. After all, this was the Fourth Prince's residence, and before leaving, her elder brother had repeatedly told her not to stay too long, so as not to cause trouble for Yu Shan. Therefore, Yu Chan politely declined and insisted on leaving.
Su Yushan gave her sister several more gifts before reluctantly seeing her off at the mansion.
After saying goodbye to her sister, Yu Chan left the mansion and returned home. When she arrived at the Zheng family's house, she put her things inside but did not rest. Instead, she went to Zheng Lin's room.
Zheng Lin had been injured at the Fourth Prince's residence and had been recuperating for a long time before gradually recovering. However, the recent cold weather and snowfall caused Zheng Lin, who was already weak, to fall ill again.
He was depressed and unwilling to take his medicine. The maid could not persuade him, and Yu Chan had to personally supervise him each time.
Just as she entered the room and sat down, a fragrance wafted over. Zheng Lin smelled the fragrance and felt a strange sense of familiarity. He immediately sat up straight and asked her...
"You went to see Yu Shan?"
Huh? She didn't mention this at all! Yu Chan looked at him in surprise, "How did you know?"
Because he had seen Yu Shan several times, and each time she had this fragrance, and today Yu Chan's clothes also exuded the same fragrance, Zheng Lin guessed that she must have been to Yu Shan's room.
In fact, Yu Chan did go, and her sister even gave her a box of spices. She thought it smelled very nice, so she accepted it. Unexpectedly, Zheng Lin was so perceptive as to notice the change in scent.
She hadn't wanted to tell him too much about her sister, lest he become sad again, but since he had already guessed, she didn't hide it anymore and told him the truth:
"I'm going to tell my sister about Xin'er's departure, so she won't worry about it."
Yes, this matter concerns Su Jiafeng's life, and it is indeed necessary to tell Yushan. Zheng Lin really wanted to ask, "Is Yushan... alright?" However, when the words reached his lips, he ultimately felt it was inappropriate and said no more.
He promised to let go of the past, but his eyes immediately turned sorrowful when his sister was mentioned. To prevent him from constantly thinking about her, Yu Chan took the initiative to say:
"My sister is fine, Brother Zheng, you don't need to worry."
"It's good that she's alright." Zheng Lin closed his eyes briefly, not daring to ask any more questions, and deliberately changed the subject, "What about Jia Feng? Xin'er's sudden disappearance is a good thing for us, but Jia Feng might be very sad. I'm fine, go and see him!"
Yu Chan said it was alright, "He seems to be fine. I saw him when I came back just now. He said he was going to work at Baozhen Tower!"
In fact, Su Jiafeng had taken the day off last night. He did not go to Baozhenlou this morning. The restaurant was very busy and the waiters were too busy to keep up. He Yunning could only lend a hand.
As the guests gradually left, He Yuning was clearing away the dishes in a second-floor room when she suddenly heard a noise at the door. Turning around, she saw Su Jiafeng standing there, and was quite surprised.
"Didn't you say you weren't coming today?"
He was in a bad mood yesterday and did want to take a day off, but then he changed his mind. "If I don't come, the restaurant will be too busy, and you'll have to do even more work."
After a moment of surprise, He Yunning curled her lip indifferently, "It's my family's shop, it's only right that I make more."
After a moment's hesitation, Su Jiafeng said, "Uh... there's something I want to make clear to you."
"I'm very busy, I don't have time." After saying that, she was about to leave with the bowls and plates, but Su Jiafeng took them from her. "You rest, I'll do it."
