"Miss."
Just then, the shareholder of the East-West Building came out, as reserved and steady as before, and called her Miss.
Jin Suting stood up and said, "You are the young master of the Yu family now, so you don't need to call me Miss."
Zhan Shaoang's expression remained unchanged. He said, "The old general has been kind to me. He will always be my leader and that will not change. You will always be my respected lady and that will not change."
This is the first time I have heard Zhan Shaoang talk so much since we parted.
Jin Suting didn't want to argue with him about this topic which had no meaning to her, so she just let him call her whatever he wanted.
Zhan Shaoang considered his words carefully and said, "That time at Zuixianlou, I didn't leave on purpose. It was because..."
"I know," Jin Suting interrupted, "I've heard it all. You don't need to repeat it."
Heard?
It seems that these things have not been spread out, Zhan Shaoang frowned and recalled them in his mind.
…
The atmosphere was a little awkward. Qin'er and Xiao Hei were both there, but they seemed like two invisible people.
Jin Suting sat down, obviously not wanting to continue chatting with Zhan Shaoang.
While looking around, a purple shadow came into view. Jin Suting looked closely and saw that it was Yu Qinglan.
"Sister Yu!" She stood up again and waved her hands as vigorously as she could.
Yu Qinglan was not nearsighted, and she saw Jin Suting and her barbecue stall early on.
When she came back from the south this time, she heard about a series of recent events concerning Jin Suting.
Of course there are too many rumors, but as wise as she is, she will definitely not believe those rumors.
So she was worried about Jin Suting. When she came back, she heard that she had been at West Street Intersection during the day, so she hurried over as soon as she arrived.
Yu Qinglan quickened her pace. It was noon, and although the spring sun was not too scorching, it made her sweat slightly.
So when she arrived at the barbecue stall, her face turned slightly red from the heat from the grill.
"Sister Su," Yu Qinglan greeted gently.
Jin Suting jumped in front of Yu Qinglan and straightened her messy hair. "Sister Yu, you're finally back. You don't even know how much I missed you!"
"Really?" Yu Qinglan smiled at her. Only then did she notice Zhan Shaoang standing next to her. She had seen Zhan Shaoang before, but she didn't have much impression of him. So she asked, "Who is this?"
Jin Suting turned to look at Zhan Shaoang. Why hasn't he left yet?
"Oh, this is the eldest son of the wealthy merchant Yu family, Zhan Shaoang." Jin Suting introduced with a hint of exaggeration.
After thinking about it, it seemed that Zhan Shaoang didn’t know Sister Yu either, so he added: "The one next to me is the eldest granddaughter of the Yu family in the Grand Tutor’s Mansion, Yu Qinglan."
Zhan Shaoang nodded towards Yu Qinglan as a greeting.
Yu Qinglan naturally knew why the eldest son of the Yu family was named Zhan, so she tactfully avoided the topic and politely smiled back.
"Then I won't bother you anymore." Zhan Shaoang was about to leave.
Jin Suting said straightforwardly: "Well, be careful on the road."
After Zhan Shaoang finally left, Jin Suting started to talk to the people around her in a personal way, "Sister Yu, what fun things did you have during your trip south these days? Tell me about it!"
Yu Qinglan smiled. She pulled Jin Suting to sit down and said, "There's nothing fun about it. We're just following our grandfather to investigate the people's sentiments."
"Investigate the people's sentiments? Isn't this what the emperor should do?" Jin Suting asked.
Yu Qinglan: "It's the prince's order. Jiangnan is far from Funing, and it's inconvenient for the prince to leave."
"Then it shouldn't be the Grand Tutor who goes," Jin Suting said. "The Grand Tutor is old, and it must be very tiring for him to travel across mountains and rivers to investigate the people's sentiments."
Yu Qinglan smiled slightly, sighed softly, and said, "The prince doesn't trust many people. Now that the Yu family has gained trust, we must do a good job."
Jin Suting suddenly sighed: "Sister Yu, I think you are so great."
