A bony hand held a teacup and handed it over.
Jiang Yao took it and drank it without thinking, and finally swallowed the flesh in his throat.
Only then did she realize that she had just taken the teacup from Su Qianji's hand.
The look in her eyes when she looked at the man was instantly guilty: "Mr. Su, thank you."
Su Qianji lowered his eyes, took out a handkerchief, stretched out his arm, and wiped the tea from the corner of her mouth.
Jiang Yao froze completely, his eyes wide open, revealing a man's serious face.
— Suqianji actually wiped my mouth? Suqianji actually wiped my mouth?
——Isn’t he a mysophobe?
"Eat slowly."
The man's voice was soft, with a hint of doting. After taking his hand back, he folded the handkerchief neatly and placed it beside him.
Aunt Liu hurried over to take the tea away, muttering to herself as she stepped aside, "Strange! I clearly remembered taking it away just now, how come it's on the table again?"
Jiang Yao was like being struck by lightning, and he froze in place, with colorful fireworks exploding in his head.
Is this still Suku Chisai? Is he possessed by a ghost?
Su Qianji suppressed his smile and looked up: "Are you full?"
"Ah? Oh! No."
Jiang Yao didn't dare to look into the man's eyes, and her face became hot.
Su Qianji drank his soup with a smile at the corners of his eyes. Someone's mind was in a mess and he couldn't say a word.
The world seemed to have finally quieted down. There were no more strange speculations about the relationship between him and Zhao Ce, and no more scolding and cursing against him.
He seemed to have found the key to controlling the voice in his heart.
Jiang Yao kept eating and didn't finish her meal properly. Why did Su Qianji wipe her mouth?
As soon as she finished the rice in her bowl, she suddenly stood up: "Master Su, I'm done eating. I'll go back first."
After saying that, without waiting for Su Qianji to speak, he turned around and ran out of the house.
Lang Qi snorted coldly: "You don't have any sense of being a maid at all."
Jiang Yao is the only maid who runs away after eating and doesn't serve her master.
Su Qianji was in a good mood and only glanced at Lang Qi indifferently: "You have lived for thousands of years. If you don't even have the tolerance to tolerate others, you have really lived in vain."
"Master." Lang Qi said a little aggrievedly, "You are too indulgent towards Jiang Yao."
"Yeah." He didn't deny his indulgence of Jiang Yao, and then changed the subject and asked, "Did Lan Sui catch him?"
Lang Qi's expression was stern: "We caught Lan Keben, but then let him go."
"Two days left." The man narrowed his eyes. "Whether the Anan tribe can survive in Zhao State depends on Lan Ke's choice."
Jiang Yao ran back in a hurry, dived into the quilt, and didn't get up for a long time.
"Sukushi is a mysophobe, but he also has obsessive-compulsive disorder. He must have felt uncomfortable when he saw the tea at the corner of my mouth. He couldn't help it, so he helped me wipe it off."
"Yes, that must be the case."
Jiang Yao was feeling annoyed when there was another knock on the door.
The only one who could come to see her was Aunt Liu in the front yard. It must be that Su Qianji needed someone to serve him, so he came to call her.
She was frightened when the door opened, and she closed it the next moment.
Jiang Shu and Xu Jing, who were locked outside, looked very unhappy.
"Why did Second Sister lock us out?"
Jiang Shu's voice was filled with exasperation as she banged on the door.
Jiang Yao leaned his back against the door and trembled with the knocks.
He knocked on the door so hard, it seems I didn't play the piano enough today.
The door couldn't be blocked, so Jiang Yao had no choice but to open it.
Jiang Shu looked very unhappy, and she and Xu Jing walked straight in.
"Jiang Yao, where are the rules you were taught at home? How dare you lock your elder sister out? Aren't you afraid that grandpa will punish you?"
"Didn't you come in?" Jiang Yao responded to her unhappily.
"I came in by myself."
"So you can come in by yourself, but you're afraid I'll lock you out?"
"you."
Jiang Shu didn't know when it started, but she found that no matter what she said, Jiang Yao couldn't make her angry anymore, and even bullying her was difficult. It seemed as if their previous situations were reversed.
"Jiang Yao, I'm not here to play tricks on you."
"Yeah." Jiang Yao nodded: "I don't think you are that free."
Jiang Shu was about to get angry again, but Xu Jing pulled her back: "Oh, I really envy you sisters. Unlike me, I don't even have anyone to argue with at home."
Xu Jing's attitude made Jiang Yao suspicious. Could it be that these two people were just weasels coming to pay New Year's greetings to the chickens?
Bah, bah, bah, she is not a chicken.
In short, looking at the words and actions of the two people, it is very strange.
"If you like, I'll take this good sister back to you. Goodbye."
"Jiang Yao."
Jiang Shu was so angry that she couldn't help but slap the table. Her ten fingers had just been injured, and her face turned pale instantly.
Xu Jing quickly asked with concern: "Jiang Shu, are you okay?"
Jiang Shu had tears in her eyes, and her heart was so hurt that her tears turned into hatred. She stared at Jiang Yao.
Xu Jing panicked. They were supposed to play the good guy, so how come they became the bad guy?
He hurriedly pulled Jiang Shu's hand from behind, signaling her not to forget the purpose of her visit.
Jiang Shu was so angry that she didn't want to have a good chat with Jiang Yao at all.
She pulled out a purse from her bosom and said, "I was going to return this to you. It's up to you whether you want it or not."
Jiang Shu stormed out of the room, and Xu Jing felt awkward standing there alone, but it wouldn't be good to say nothing either.
"Actually, Jiang Yao, your eldest sister still cares about you very much. She's been arguing with you these past few days, and she feels really bad about it. She even asked someone to find your purse and return it to you. Don't be angry with your eldest sister. She's just being stubborn, but she really cares about you."
Jiang Yao gave her a strange look: "Jiang Shu has left, why aren't you leaving yet?"
"Jiang Yao, think about it more."
After saying this, Xu Jing followed Jiang Shu and left.
Jiang Yao slowly sat down at the table.
The purse on the table was a little worn, but it was clean and looked like it had just been washed.
The purse was left to the original owner by her mother. Because the original owner cherished it, Jiang Shu always wanted to get it. Later, she finally got it. When Jiang Yao went to look for it crying, Jiang Shu lost it. It had been lost for seven years. Unexpectedly, it was found today. Jiang Shu even washed it and gave it to her.
"If someone shows kindness without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief."
She is not the original owner, so she would not be so stupid as to jump into the trap even though she knows it is a trap.
The purse was fine, nothing unusual, except for the herbal aroma on it. It wasn't poison, but a common soothing incense, and it had just been smoked.
No matter what Jiang Shu's purpose was, she would definitely not wear this purse because it belonged to the original owner's mother. She put the purse away in her dressing box.
It was already dark outside. Jiang Yao still remembered the agreement with Bai Wuchang, so he quickly went out with the basket.
