Chapter Forty: Deep in the Maple Forest

Chapter 40: Deep in the Maple Forest

It was just as she expected! Xianxue looked at Liu Chang's frowning expression and wondered what he had planned. She couldn't guess it anyway, so she better not bother to guess. Since he was fine, she could

She felt a lot more at ease. If she had been hit by that palm, she didn't know how badly she would be hurt! Deep down in her heart, she was still grateful to him. In the past, she always thought that death was not scary, but now she became afraid of death.

Because she has concerns, she will definitely cherish herself, protect the gold and silver treasures, and let them grow up happily under her wings.

In the past few days, Liu Su did not bother her, but stayed in the guest room arranged by her to recuperate. Xianxue thought about it again and decided to visit him. After all, his injury was healed, and she could go there openly.

People! Xianxue pushed the door open and saw no one in the room. When did Liu Su leave? This is not like his style at all! Xianxue was full of questions, and she found that she could not guess this man at all!

No matter what, he left, leaving him with a long-lost peace. Xianxue took a deep breath, feeling relaxed for no reason.

In the blink of an eye, another few months passed by. There was still a bit of warmth a few days ago. Now the autumn wind blows, and there is a depressing scene everywhere. The weather is going to get colder again. In a few days, she will be here.

It's been a whole year since the world passed by, how fast! Xianxue couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Suddenly, the housekeeper came to report that an envoy from Soochow was visiting.

Xianxue came to the front hall and saw a somewhat familiar figure standing in the hall. If she remembered correctly, this man was Qi Sheng, the sixth prince of Soochow, who had been following her when she first came to the Five Nations Chamber of Commerce.

The personal guard behind Yue. Although it was only a one-time encounter, and he was only a guard, she remembered him because he and his master were the same, as if they both came from the Arctic ice peaks.

When the visitor saw Xianxue, he handed her a letter, his attitude was neither humble nor overbearing, and he waited quietly.

"You reply to your master, I will get up tomorrow." Xianxue said to the visitor.

"Yes." The visitor turned and left.

Xianxue's eyebrows tightened. She had never seen someone who was so precious with words. She only said one word in total. She didn't know if the owner of his family was like this. Judging from the content of the letter, it was probably about the same.

Where to go, Qi Shengyue needs the things she has in hand. Although he did not clearly say what those things are, Xianxue also understands. Qi Shengyue is another difficult character to deal with, but money must be earned, and so must business.

What she had to do. Otherwise, why would she spend so much money to deal with the accumulated goods in Chu Qingyu's hands.

Those things were difficult to sell in Chu Qingyu's hands, but she was different. After her improvement, these things became hot treasures in the blink of an eye. As soon as she let the wind out, fish came on

Checked. Now, she wants to double all that money back!

A stone path leads straight into the depths between the fiery red maple trees. At the end, a small wooden house stands quietly by a small lake surrounded by maple trees. A blue figure stands in front of the wooden house, staring at the lake with an expressionless face, and the breeze blows.

Blowing by, the maple leaves flew into the lake, like a leafless boat swimming in the water.

The wind blew, and the maple forest returned to tranquility, like a picture scroll. The clothes of the man in blue slowly fell down, like the curtain call of a dance. Qi Shengyue was still as cold as ever, as if there was no trace of warmth.

"Is she here?" Qi Shengyue's tone had a hint of chill in it. It made people want to shudder.

"Back to Your Highness, we will enter Soochow this morning." The guard behind him immediately replied.

This morning? Why haven't you come to see him since you have arrived in Soochow? This woman is really bold. Looking at the whole world, there is no one who can make the Sixth Prince wait for him in person.

"Where is she now?" Qi Chengyue asked coldly.

"Go back to Your Highness, in Xianlai Pavilion."

She was so elegant that she even went to a famous inn in Soochow. The dishes there were unmatched by any other place in the five countries, and that special flavor was only found in Soochow. He was the sixth prince of Soochow.

It's not as good as a meal.

Xianxue suddenly felt a chill on her back. She didn't know who was thinking about her. She shook her head and looked at the two people holding delicious pieces and eating. There were black lines on their foreheads. She gently kissed them.

The little kid wiped away the stains from the corner of his mouth, with a look of doting in his eyes.

"Ying Shi, you are the person who enjoys the most in the shadows. Can't you look so useless?" Xianxue picked up the chopsticks and knocked the delicious food from Ying Shi's hands. In the blink of an eye, the dishes on the table were eaten.

This big two and two wiped out most of them.

"Master, this taste is truly amazing!" Ying Shi said vaguely.

"A unique thing?" Xianxue disagreed. Her taste buds had long been stimulated by the modern high-end delicacies. In ancient times when food was scarce, these things could make a cold-blooded killer fall in love with the appearance in front of her.

Shadow Ten stopped making a sound. Anyway, in his mind, he had classified his master as a non-human being.

"Mom, the food here is delicious." Jinbao saw that Xianxue's bowl was still empty and immediately put his favorite dish into Xianxue's bowl.

"Mother, you eat too." Yinbao also hurriedly showed his courtesy. This time they clamored to follow mother. They came at the right time.

Xianxue looked at the dog-legged appearance of the two children and smiled fondly. Just when the four of them had eaten and drank, Qi Shengyue's bodyguard appeared in front of Xianxue again. When she saw the mess on the table in front of her,

, the calmness in the eyes was finally broken, and the corners of the eyes seemed to be involuntarily ###.

"President Baili, if you want to make peace with my master, you'd better show some sincerity." The guard regained his composure.

"I am thinking about your master, otherwise he would have to spend time treating me to a meal. Now, I will solve it myself." Xianxue spread her hands, obviously looking very sincere.

Does the master still lack money for that meal? The guard secretly cursed.

Shadow Ten suddenly felt that his master, who usually looked as cold as the full moon in the sky, also had such a rogue side. He was indeed inhuman.

"Let's go, don't keep your master waiting." Xianxue urged, but the guard didn't keep up with the rhythm and was stunned again.

Xianxue suddenly discovered that she really liked the cracked look of calmness on other people's faces, which gave her a sense of accomplishment, especially for this ### type.

What a beautiful maple forest. Xianxue was amazed when she saw the scene in front of her. I heard that this maple forest belonged to Qi Shengyue. As soon as autumn came, he came here and he would not come here until the end of autumn.

During this period of departure, he will not be involved in any political affairs. Even if there is a big matter, no one will dare to disturb him. I don’t know if what Shadow has heard about is true. If it is true, she will not be here at this time.

appear in this place.

"President Baili, please." Seeing Xianxue stop in place, the guard said displeasedly.

Xianxue came back to her senses and glanced at ### man, who was holding a child with one hand and moving forward. If it weren't for her strong request, the two little kids might not have seen such a beautiful scenery.
