When Xie Jin said about eating on the street, she didn’t mean just having lunch, but eating out all day long, including breakfast!

Therefore, Xie Jin came to Zhao Shu's yard early in the morning, intending to give her a "surprise".

Unexpectedly, while he was climbing over the wall with great effort, the person involved in the incident had already gotten up early and was now sitting in the yard, drinking hot tea, and looking at himself climbing the wall with a comfortable look on his face!

Xie Jin ignored the interest in Zhao Shu's eyes. He just patted his robe and walked towards her calmly. He came to the table, picked up the empty cup next to Zhao Shu, poured himself a cup of hot tea, sat down leisurely, and sipped it slowly.

Xie Jin looked relaxed. It wouldn't be too late to go to the street after he finished drinking the cup of hot tea and warmed up his body.

Seeing Xie Jin drinking a cup of tea that felt like it lasted forever, Zhao Shu tried to hold back, but couldn't help herself and finally said to him, "My Lord, if we go too late, we might miss breakfast."

She still has to go see Mianru!

Xie Jin's expression didn't change at all, he just dragged out his tone: "Oh~."

Seeing that he didn't respond, Zhao Shu simply said, "It's time to go."

Xie Jin raised his head and glanced at Zhao Shu who was standing opposite him. Then he stood up, straightened his robes slowly, and said in a condescending tone, "Let's go."

After saying that, he led out of the yard.

Seeing this, Zhao Shu told A Ling to take the things, then turned around and followed.

Although the two went to the street together, Zhao Shu kept one meter away from Xie Jin to avoid suspicion.

Xie Jin, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped. Zhao Shu looked at his back and also stopped.

Xie Jin had been staying in the front, motionless. Zhao Shu looked at this scene, her face full of confusion. What happened?
Xie Jin didn't move, and Zhao Shu didn't move either. The two of them remained in a stalemate for nearly half a moment.

Finally, Zhao Shu saw Xie Jin's robe move. Just when she thought she could continue on her way, the big Buddha in front of her spoke:
"Why, am I your servant?"

"Hmm?" Zhao Shu didn't understand what he meant, but seeing that Xie Jin didn't answer her confusion, she could only frown and look at him.

Xie Jin waited for a moment, and seeing that there was still no movement behind him, he finally said unhappily, "Come here!"

"Ah?" Zhao Shu was really confused. She had no idea what he was thinking.

This person is so weird, just like a little girl on her period, his emotions are so fickle.

Xie Jin was so angry that Zhao Shu couldn't crack his head with three hammers that he turned around and walked towards her.

Xie Jin walked towards her step by step, his footsteps were so heavy that it seemed as if he could dig through the ground. Zhao Shu looked at his aggressive appearance, her heart skipped a beat, and she mourned for the poor ground for half a second.

When Xie Jin stopped beside her, Zhao Shu took her eyes off his feet and looked at the handsome face in front of her. She saw him say word by word, "Let's go!"

Zhao Shu suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and combined with Xie Jin's actions and words just now, she suddenly understood!

He felt that they walked one after the other like this, making him look like a servant, and therefore he was unhappy!
After Zhao Shu figured out the reason, she immediately nodded to Xie Jin: "Yeah."

In order to avoid the situation just now from happening again, Zhao Shu learned her lesson this time and no longer walked in front of and behind Xie Jin, but she also didn't walk too close to Xie Jin. The distance between them was just enough to accommodate one person.

Apart from the previous scene, the atmosphere between the two of them was harmonious and no other problems occurred.

The two of them came to a restaurant together. Yesterday, Xie Jin asked his servants to reserve a table at this restaurant, so looking at the full restaurant, Xie Jin was not in a hurry.

After waving the waiter over and telling him his identity, the waiter immediately looked up at the two of them, then nodded and bowed to welcome them in.

The waiter took them to a private room on the second floor, opened the door and welcomed them in, then bowed and walked out.

Zhao Shu walked towards the window, but suddenly stopped halfway. With her back to Xie Jin, Zhao Shu frowned in annoyance. How could she forget about Xie Jin?
After a while, Zhao Shu quickly adjusted her facial expression, turned around, and walked towards Xie Jin.

Xie Jin stood at the door, arms folded, looking at Zhao Shu leisurely.

Zhao Shu came to Xie Jin as if nothing had happened. Although she stood beside Xie Jin, she kept half a step away from him. She tilted her head slightly and looked at him with an appropriate smile.

Xie Jin raised his eyebrows at Zhao Shu and walked straight to the window. He had no intention of letting Zhao Shu down.

Zhao Shu followed Xie Jin, preparing to sit in the seat opposite the bay window, but before her butt touched the seat, Xie Jin, who had just been opposite her, came to her side and sat down in the seat she was going to sit.

Zhao Shu paused while bending over, stood up, turned her head to look at Xie Jin, and then walked to the bay window.

After Zhao Shu sat down, she leaned towards the bay window and looked intently at the street downstairs.

Because it was still early, there were not many people on the street, only two or three people walking by from time to time.

A crisp and heavy "dong" sound brought Zhao Shu's wandering thoughts back.

Zhao Shu turned around and looked at the bowl in front of her that had been filled with food at some point.

Zhao Shu picked up her chopsticks slowly and started eating. Seeing her start eating, Xie Jin also picked up her chopsticks and started eating.

The two of them ate in silence. Although Xie Jin wanted to say something, he gave up when he saw Zhao Shu was concentrating on eating.

Zhao Shu was not very hungry and felt full after eating a few bites. She raised her eyes to glance at Xie Jin opposite her, who was eating slowly and did not seem to be full at all.

Zhao Shu retracted her gaze, thought for a moment, reached out to take an empty bowl, scooped a spoonful of porridge into it, and sipped it in small sips.

After taking a sip of porridge, Zhao Shu turned her head slightly to look out the window, using this action to kill time.

"Boom!"

When Xie Jin heard the noise, before he could raise his head, he saw a thin figure from the corner of his eye. Xie Jin suddenly put down his bowl and chopsticks and chased after him.

Seeing that the figure was about to turn out of the restaurant, Xie Jin hurriedly took three steps at a time, reached out to grab her forearm, and used force to turn her body around.

What came into view was Zhao Shu, whose face was filled with anxiety.

Seeing Zhao Shu's ugly face, Xie Jin swallowed back the reprimand that was about to come out of his mouth, secretly exhaled, then looked at her and said softly: "What's wrong?"

Zhao Shu ignored Xie Jin and just tried to shake the hand that was tightly clasped on her arm. After several attempts without success, she turned around and looked towards the corner of the street. She didn't know what she saw and her face turned slightly pale.

Zhao Shu turned her head and looked at Xie Jin, "Cousin Jin, please..."

"Hmm?" Xie Jin's tone was coaxing.

Zhao Shu struggled for a second, but after a second, she said with determination: "Cousin Jin, please save Mianru. I just saw Mianru being kidnapped!"

Zhao Shu pointed to a carriage in the distance: "In that carriage."

As soon as Zhao Shu finished speaking, the carriage started moving quickly.

Zhao Shu looked more and more anxious as she watched the carriage going further and further away. She subconsciously grabbed Xie Jin's sleeve and tugged slightly: "Cousin Jin?"

Seeing the person in front of him who was about to cry, Xie Jin raised his eyes and looked towards the teahouse opposite. Zhao Shu followed his gaze and saw a tall and strong man jumping down from the second floor of the teahouse. After several jumps, he went straight to the carriage.

Zhao Shu remembered that person. He was one of the people who followed Xie Jin and helped them push the carriage last time.

Xie Jin took the hand on his sleeve, looked down at Zhao Shu, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, with Xie Er here, your friend will be fine."

Zhao Shu looked up at Xie Jin and responded, "Yeah." But the anxiety on her face did not diminish in the slightest.

Xie Jin pulled Zhao Shu and brought her back to the previous box. Zhao Shu sat down absentmindedly, staring blankly at the place where the carriage had just stopped.

Gradually, more and more people walked on the street, and the market, which had been deserted just a moment ago, suddenly became lively.

As more and more people gathered on the street, Zhao Shu's inner anxiety gradually grew.

Zhao Shu turned her head and looked at Xie Jin helplessly. Xie Jin was about to say something to comfort her, but before he could say anything, there was a knock on the door.

Zhao Shu stared at the door. Xie Jin glanced at her and then stood up to open the door.

The door slowly opened, and outside the door was Xie Er, who had just chased the carriage.

When Zhao Shu saw that the person standing outside the door was Xie Er, her eyes lit up. But when the door was fully opened and she saw clearly that the person outside was only Xie Er, her eyes dimmed again.

Xie Jin, who was standing by the door, saw it clearly. Xie Jin turned his head to look at Zhao Shu, then asked Xie Er in a deep voice, "What's going on?"

"I deserve to die. The other party was too cunning and I lost him!" Xie Er lowered his head and clasped his fists.

The room was strangely quiet for a while. After a while, Xie Jin said, "Go down."

Although Xie Jin had no intention of blaming him, Xie Er still did not dare to raise his head. He bowed and retreated.

Xie Jin returned to his seat, poured a cup of tea, and drank it sip by sip.

"Gudong"

"Gudong"

Again and again, the swallowing sound hit Zhao Shu's eardrum.

It was as if something in Zhao Shu's brain snapped. Her face turned pale and she looked at Xie Jin with pleading eyes.

Xie Jin drank the last sip of tea and was about to speak when a hand covered the back of his hand.

Zhao Shu begged, "Cousin Jin, please save Mianru!"

Xie Jin looked at Zhao Shu expressionlessly, and suddenly pulled his hand away.

Zhao Shu thought Xie Jin was going to refuse and was about to ask him again, but Xie Jin suddenly said, "Don't worry, I will save him."

"It's just that it's not because of you, but because I hate evil and hate such dirty deeds!"

The words Zhao Shu hadn't spoken yet were stuck in her throat. She then withdrew her hand somewhat embarrassedly, looked at Xie Jin sincerely and said, "Cousin Jin, thank you."

No matter what the reason was, he still agreed to her request.
