Chapter 497 Extra - Unseen in the Jianghu
Shu Tong took out the silver and handed it over. After the coachman confirmed that it was indeed silver, he gave her change and handed it back. Shu Tong put it in her pocket and got off the carriage.
Before Shu Tong could even ask where there was a carriage company nearby, the driver quickly drove his little carriage away.
Shu Tong could only walk a little closer to the wall, thinking that a young master like Ye Zhiyuan would naturally leave through the main gate, so she would just wait here for him to come.
As expected of a grand mansion, there were far fewer people coming and going. All around were neat streets and the same high walls and courtyards.
Shu Tong thought to herself that she had probably stumbled into the circle of a wealthy family in ancient times.
I must say, the air here seems even fresher than in the city.
As she peered at the gates of the Minister's residence, she thought about how, after returning the handkerchief, she would need to find a coachman and have the all-knowing coachman take her to a shop specializing in etiquette...
Everything that followed fell into place naturally.
Shu Tong began to dream of a carefree life of counting money while lying down, until she received the divorce papers...
Tsk tsk, she'll buy a house in this elite circle, find a good husband, and live a carefree and happy life.
About the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Shu Tong, who was looking forward to a better life, caught a glimpse of a dashing white figure walking out of the Minister's mansion, followed by a tall horse.
Upon closer inspection, it was indeed Ye Zhiyuan himself.
The man wore his usual white brocade robe, adorned with green bamboo, and his hair was tied up with a crown, exuding an extraordinary air.
Especially with the grand gate and courtyard behind him, he exudes the elegance of a noble family.
He's definitely a person who's a perfect match for a princess.
Shu Tong hurriedly ran out from under the wall onto the main road, but dared not shout openly, so she could only hide under a big tree and watch.
After Ye Zhiyuan went out, he mounted his horse and was about to gallop away when Shu Tong hurriedly called out, "Brother Ye!"
Perhaps the spring breeze arrived just in time, because Ye Zhiyuan heard the familiar voice. He immediately tightened the reins and the horse stopped.
His gaze swept around and he spotted the "young master" waving at him from behind a large tree.
His eyes lit up immediately when he saw Shu Tong's face clearly.
"Little Brother Shu..."
He dismounted and walked over, his eyes full of tenderness: "Shu...Little Brother Shu, what brings you here? Did you come to see me?"
Shu Tong nodded, took out a handkerchief from her bosom, and handed it over: "Here's your handkerchief back."
Her eyes darted around warily, completely unaware of the shocked expression in the man's eyes.
When a woman gives a handkerchief to a man, the meaning is self-evident!
Seeing that he wouldn't accept it, Shu Tong frowned slightly: "Brother Ye! Please accept it!"
Ye Zhiyuan's eyes were filled with affection that almost melted away, his deep eyes shimmering with warmth: "Are you really going to give it to me?"
"yes!"
Seeing Shu Tong's resolute expression, Ye Zhiyuan accepted the handkerchief with both hands: "Little Brother Shu..."
He originally wanted to express his feelings of lifelong devotion to one another, but just as he was gathering his courage, Shu Tong spoke up again.
"Brother Ye, don't tell anyone you've seen me. From now on, let's go our separate ways and never meet again in the martial world!"
After saying that, Shu Tong waved her hand at him and said, "I'm leaving!"
Holding the handkerchief, Ye Zhiyuan watched Shu Tong's figure disappear into the alley in a flash, and his heart suddenly warmed.
"Never to meet again in the martial world" means that if she sees him again, she will no longer be her little sister Shu, and he will no longer be her big brother Ye.
We should be husband and wife when we meet again.
