Shen Ruo originally wanted to sneak away while everyone was not paying attention to her, but was stopped by someone: "Miss Qiao."

"what?"

She frowned, pulled her hand out, and looked impatiently at the girl in Tsing Yi in front of her.

Pei Zhizhou smiled shyly: "Thank you, Ms. Qiao, for helping me this time, otherwise my lord wouldn't know what would have happened."

Seeing her come to thank her for Xiao Chen, this scene made Shen Ruo unhappy no matter how you looked at it.

She sneered and said, "What? Are you planning to pay the consultation fee for Xiao Chen?"

Pei Zhizhou was stunned for a moment, and asked tentatively: "Didn't the prince say that all the medical expenses for your trip will be paid by His Royal Highness?"

When Shen Ruo heard it, she felt amused, this woman was indeed smarter than the other two.

"If you just want to tell me this, it's okay and I'll go."

"No, I still want to ask the prince what the disease is like. Miss Qiao, you have excellent medical skills, so you must have a solution."

Facing the earnest eyes on the other side, Shen Ruo sneered: "Even if you flatter me, Xiao Chen's broken body won't last for a few years before he dies."

Her eyes shifted and fell on the dazed and slightly pale face, and she said softly but with a bit of malice: "Miss Pei, if you don't want to marry and become a widow, you should quickly find another husband."

After finishing the prank, she left Pei Zhizhou with a stiff face in a cheerful mood, and strode away.

Back in the temple, Shen Ruo rubbed his empty stomach, remembering that he didn’t see Qi’er in the Buddha Hall just now, Bi turned around and went to the kitchen, took some vegetable bags, and then walked towards the male guest’s room .

Just when he was halfway there, he met Qi'er who came out to look for food.

As soon as he saw her, he jumped up excitedly: "Mom!"

"Be careful, I have a few buns in my arms."

Shen Ruo caught his son with a funny face, and listened carefully to the surrounding environment. After confirming that there was no one there, he felt relieved, and told Qi'er, "Even if there is no one around, don't call me mother. Be careful that the walls have ears. do you know?"

Qi'er pouted and nodded reluctantly.

Shen Ruo looked at it, and felt that it was very cute. He touched his son's head, pulled him to sit down in an open space, and gave him the steamed stuffed bun that was still warm in his arms: "Eat it, the incident of Xiao Chen's illness just now caused a lot of trouble. You are so big, everyone should not care about you."

Qi'er was holding the steamed stuffed bun, gnawing on it contentedly, with his mouth stuffed, as if thinking of something, he hurriedly asked: "Mother... Sister Qiao, haven't you spoken clearly to the prince?" He blinked, "Would you like me?" Give you a chance?"

Shen Ruo laughed: "I don't need you, I've already taken care of it."

"Then why can't I call you mother?"

Qi'er wants to act like a baby with her mother aboveboard, and wants to be with her every day.

"because……"

The smile on Shen Ruo's face faded, "I haven't told Xiao Chen my identity yet."

Qi'er didn't understand, and asked again: "Why?"

She hesitated for a moment, and when she was about to speak, she saw a man and a woman approaching the opposite corner, it was Shen Bingxin and Lin Lang.

Both parties were taken aback, it should be said that the enemy's road is narrow.

Shen Bingxin glanced at the vegetable bun in Qi'er's hand from the corner of her eye, with a shocked expression on her face, as if Shen Ruo had actually poisoned it.

"Oh my god, Lin'er, how can you eat this?"

Holding the hem of her skirt, she trotted over: "Auntie, I brought the white jade cake from Shangshifang here, Lin'er, let's eat this."

However, Qi'er changed her soft and sticky character in front of her mother, and her face became serious, showing a bit of Xiao Chen's ice-cold posture: "I don't eat bad women's food, who knows if there is poison in it?"

The almost flattering smile on Shen Bingxin's face froze completely, and she couldn't get angry at all: "You..."

Little bastard, why didn't he die with his damn mother?
As soon as this evil thought flashed across her heart, Shen Ruo was keenly aware of it: "Did you scold him in your heart just now?"

Shen Bingxin was startled, and quickly denied it with a guilty conscience: "How is it possible, Lin'er is my dear nephew, it's a pity that he lost his mother at a young age, I feel sorry for him before it's too late."

Shen Bingxin squatted down, showing a smile that she thought was gentle and kind, and said softly: "Lin'er, it was my aunt who was ignorant in the past and may have hurt you, but in the end we are relatives whose blood is thicker than water. Your mother is gone. Auntie will be your mother from now on, okay?"

After Qi'er listened, the little Naiyin replied unceremoniously and coldly: "Your mother just died."

"Shen Xiulin! You..."

She stopped abruptly in the middle of her furious words, and it turned out that a cold light hit her face.

"What do you want to say, go ahead!"

Shen Bingxin froze all over, only dared to move her eyes, staring down at the sharp knife, but still trembling uncontrollably: "Lin Linlang, save me!"

There was a terrified cry in her words.

"Miss Qiao, don't be impulsive."

Lin Lang had already grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist before Shen Bingxin uttered a word, but, remembering Shen Ruo's miraculous skill before, he didn't dare to act rashly, for fear of accidentally injuring her.

Shen Ruo swept across the two of them coolly, and withdrew the knife in his hand: "I've always had a bad temper, so don't provoke me if you don't want to get hurt."

"Yes, I'm sorry, Ms. Qiao, I'll go with my heart."

Lin Lang easily mentioned Shen Bingxin whose legs had softened from fright, and after apologizing, he left immediately.

Shen Ruo snorted coldly after seeing the two people disappear around the corner, and turned to look at Qi'er: "Are you okay?"

Qi'er nodded, with a puzzled tone: "Sister Qiao, if you had disclosed your identity earlier, wouldn't these things have disappeared?"

Shen Ruo said lightly: "Even if they don't have that identity, they don't dare to provoke me."

Qi'er still looked incomprehensible, she rubbed his hair vigorously twice, and asked with a smile: "Do you like Wangfu?"

Qier shook his head decisively.

"Why? Is the palace not good?"

Qi'er tilted her head, thoughtfully replied: "It's not bad, but the palace always meddles with me, it's so annoying."

"Yes."

Shen Ruo murmured thoughtfully, "It's really disgusting to live without freedom."

"Sister Joe?"

Her murmur was so low that Qi'er who was nearby couldn't hear her clearly.

Shen Ruo regained consciousness and didn't want to talk any more. After finishing breakfast with his son, he sent him back to the wing.

She waited for the night to come.

……

However, after all calculations, unexpectedly, there was a heavy rain tonight.After all, it is on the mountain, so the rain is more abundant.

In the room, the candles were dimly lit and beating slightly.

There was a loud crackling sound of raindrops hitting the ground outside the window, and some drops of water even splashed into the house from the corridor, bringing a hint of coolness.

Xiao Chen was sitting by the window, with a chessboard in front of him, with black and white chess pieces already occupying more than half of it.

He looked out of the window from time to time, saying that the person who would come, but he was delayed.
