Kurumi said as she entered the fitting room with a smile on her face.

"Okay, I'll wait here."

Su Chen responded, a hint of concern in his eyes.

Not long after, Hu Tao came out wearing a new dress, spun around and asked, "Su Chen, how is it? Does this dress look good?"

Su Chen examined Hu Tao's outfit, thought for a moment and said, "Well, this dress is nice, but I think white may not suit you. How about trying this red one?"

As he spoke, he took a red dress from the hanger and handed it to Kurumi.

Walnut took the dress, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then she went back to the fitting room to change.

Hu Tao walked into the fitting room lightly, put on her new clothes and walked out to show them to Su Chen. "How is it?" she asked, with an expectant light in her eyes.

Su Chen looked at it carefully and said, "This dress suits you very well. It makes you look elegant and energetic. Look in the mirror and see how you feel?" he said encouragingly.

Hu Tao turned around in front of the mirror and nodded with satisfaction: "Yeah, I think it's great too. Su Chen's choice is really discerning."

She then went back to the fitting room and changed a few clothes. Su Chen gave his own suggestions and thought that the other clothes were also suitable for daily wear.

Just as Su Chen was about to take Hu Tao to check out, Hu Tao suggested, "Su Chen, you should pick a few pieces as well. Today is our date, don't forget yourself."

As she spoke, she took Su Chen to pick out a few sets of clothes, and then went to the checkout counter together to pay.

As the head of the Wangsheng Hall, although most of the funds were usually spent by Zhongli, Hu Tao was still a wealthy woman after all and had her own small treasury, so buying a few pieces of clothing was just a piece of cake for her.

Walking out of the store, the sun had not yet reached its highest point, Hu Tao suggested: "It's still early, let's continue shopping, Su Chen."

She held Su Chen's hand and walked towards the next stop - Chunxiang Kiln - with great interest.

"Come to Chunxiang Kiln, I want to buy some perfume. Su Chen, help me pick one."

"Okay, I don't really understand that though."

Su Chen spoke as he carefully selected items on the shelf. At the same time, Hu Tao began chatting with the clerk Ying'er.

"Ying'er, what kinds of ointments do you have here?" asked Hu Tao.

"Well, what specific scent do you need?" Ying'er replied, looking confused.

Hu Tao quietly gestured in the direction of Su Chen. Ying'er looked at him and smiled knowingly: "Master Hu, are you preparing this for someone special?"

"Oh, that's not the case... I just want to prepare it in case it is needed." Hu Tao said in a low voice. The two of them talked, deliberately not letting Su Chen hear.

They giggled quietly and talked for a while.

Ying'er smiled gently and handed Walnut a delicate little bottle. "I understand how you feel. This potion will help, but remember, be careful when using it."

At this point, Ying'er's eyes flickered with a hint of mischief, and she was obviously looking forward to imagining the scene of Hu Tao using it on a man.

"I see. How do I calculate this?"

Walnut took the bottle and started asking about the price.

In Hu Tao's impression, treasures like this must be very expensive, but in order to make Su Chen completely obsessed with her belly, Hu Tao is willing to go all out.

Ying'er shook her head with a hint of sadness, remembering that Timaeus was absorbed in the study of alchemy and was unwilling to have a deeper exchange with her. He said that he would not do so until he had completed the research of alchemy. So she could only shake her head gently: "Actually, I originally prepared this potion myself, but it seems that I can't use it now, so I'll just treat it as a gift to you."

Hu Tao felt Ying'er's emotions and didn't ask any more questions. She just left the store with Su Chen with a hint of gratitude.

"Okay, Su Chen, it's almost time for dinner. Don't cook by yourself today, just relax." Hu Tao said, pulling Su Chen towards Wanmin Hall.

She saw Xiangling in front of the door and blinked, as if full of secrets, and said to Su Chen: "Go to Sanwan Buguoxiang first, try some desserts and listen to some books. I have something to take care of here, and I will give you a surprise later."

Hu Tao and Xiang Ling walked into the Wanmin Hall together, leaving Su Chen standing there with a helpless smile on his face.

Su Chen roughly guessed Hu Tao's plan.

"It seems that Hu Tao is planning something again, so let her have it this time." Su Chen smiled to himself, then walked towards Sanwan Buguoxiang, intending to enjoy a leisurely time.

Walking into Sanwan Buguoxiang, he was greeted by the familiar sound of reading and Zhongli's figure. Su Chen sat next to Zhongli and greeted him with a smile.

Su Chen walked towards Zhongli and asked with a friendly smile: "Mr. Zhongli, can I sit here?"

Zhongli looked up, a gentle smile on his face, "Of course, Traveler. Please take a seat."

Su Chen sat down next to Zhongli and started a conversation easily. "I didn't disturb you from listening to the book, did I, Mr. Zhongli?"

Zhongli gently waved the folding fan in his hand and replied, "No, no. I would like to ask, how are you getting along with Hall Master Hu recently? Hall Master Hu's unique personality must have brought a lot of fun to your life."

Su Chen pondered for a moment and replied, "Actually, Hu Tao is pretty easy to get along with. Although she's a little eccentric, she doesn't cause me any trouble."

Zhongli nodded in understanding. "From what you said, it seems that you and Hall Master Hu get along really well. How does she treat you?"

"Hu Tao, she is very considerate and would not do anything excessive. But her thoughts are sometimes quite jumpy."

Su Chen nodded and explained with a smile.

"Then it seems like you two get along really well."

Zhongli smiled, said no more, and continued to drink tea and listen to the book.

Not long after, Hu Tao walked out of Wanmin Hall and saw Zhongli and Su Chen together. She greeted them happily: "Zhongli, you are here too!"

Zhongli nodded and responded, "Master Hu, you are here."

"Well, okay, Su Chen, let's go."

Hu Tao said, and briskly took Su Chen's hand and led him to the Wanmin Hall...

"Look, the delicacies on this table are all prepared by me personally, Su Chen, you will definitely like them."

Walnut excitedly showed off her culinary skills.

Su Chen looked around the table filled with delicious food, a sincere smile appeared on his face, and he gently patted Hu Tao's head, "Haha, Hu Tao, you are awesome, thank you."

Hu Tao seemed particularly happy under Su Chen's touch, and Xiang Ling, who was standing next to them, saw the intimacy between the two, smiled and quietly left the room.

"Okay, stop touching it and try it now. Don't let the delicious food get cold."

Kurumi urged playfully.

Su Chen tasted every dish and praised Hu Tao's cooking skills from time to time. He knew that Xiang Ling must have helped behind the scenes, but more importantly, he felt particularly satisfied seeing Hu Tao so happy.

After dinner, the two strolled along the street together. Time flew by in laughter and before they knew it, it was evening.

As the sky gradually darkened, Su Chen suggested with concern: "It's getting late, what do you want to eat? I'll go buy it."

Walnut shook her head, "No need to buy it, let's go back."

Back at the Wangsheng Hall, Hu Tao pulled Su Chen into her room. She looked at Su Chen seriously with a hint of expectation in her eyes, "Su Chen, do you... like me?"

Suchen was a little surprised by her blunt question, but he quickly gave her a warm smile, "Of course I like it, Kurumi."

As he spoke, he gently touched her head again, his eyes full of doting.

Hu Tao lightly took out an exquisite box from the drawer. Su Chen stared at it curiously, "Isn't this the one I saw in Mingxingzhai this morning?"

Hu Tao slowly opened the box, revealing an exquisite necklace. She looked at Su Chen affectionately, "Su Chen, I want to ask you, are you willing to marry me privately? This is not a spur of the moment decision, I am serious."

Su Chen was a little stunned by this sudden confession, "It's so sudden, don't we need more preparation?"

"No, I don't care about the red tape, Su Chen, tell me your decision."

"Of course I do, Kurumi. After all, I love you too."

Su Chen's eyes were full of sincerity.

"Then I will put this necklace around your neck. Remember, you can't take it off at will."

Hu Tao gently put the necklace on Su Chen, and with a crisp sound, the necklace fit tightly around his neck.

"Then we belong to each other."

"But we still need a big wedding, don't we?"

Kurumi suggested playfully, blinking.

"Of course, everything is as you wish."

Su Chen nodded in response.

"Okay, I'm starting to feel a little hungry, and I'm sure you are too. I'll go prepare dinner." He was about to get up when Kurumi suddenly stopped him and gave him a light push, causing him to fall unsteadily on the bed.

"Hu Tao, what are you doing?" Su Chen was a little surprised.

"Shh, no need to eat dinner tonight. All I want is you."

As she spoke, Kurumi gently began to unbutton her clothes.

Before Su Chen could speak, Hu Tao gently stopped him from speaking.

Then, the two of them lingered in the moonlight, their love for each other flowing in silence.

In the early morning, Hu Tao snuggled tightly in Su Chen's arms and said softly, "From now on, I am yours, Su Chen, you must cherish me."

"I will, and we will never be apart."

Su Chen looked at the blush on Hu Tao's face, nodded and agreed softly.

PS: For the omitted part, let’s use the part about Walnut’s welfare in the previous chapter. Walnut has become addicted because of the continuous hype in the past few days, so he came to Ying’er to buy a special ointment, drugged the protagonist, and let him come a few more times.

In addition, it snowed here. I wonder if it snowed where you readers are. The snow scene here looks like this:

Chapter 312 Shen He's [Looking for Husband]

After spending a long while with Hu Tao, Su Chen looked at Hu Tao in his arms, gazing at her tenderly, with a hint of firmness in his tone:

"Hu Tao, I have been assigned by the Liyue Seven Stars as an external aid. The death of the Rock King Emperor is a big deal, and I need to deal with some urgent matters."

A trace of reluctance flashed across Hu Tao's eyes, but she quickly calmed down, nodded obediently, her eyes full of trust and support for Su Chen.

"Su Chen, I understand. But you must come back early. I will wait for you here."

Su Chen gently held her hand and said with emotion: "I will definitely come back, Hu Tao, don't worry."

The two hugged each other affectionately, then Su Chen turned and left the Hall of Rebirth, embarking on the journey to Liyue Harbor.

Hu Tao stood at the door, watching his back gradually going away. Although she felt very reluctant to let him go, she was also full of expectations for the future.

After arriving at Liyue Harbor, Su Chen felt the heavy atmosphere of the entire city.

On the streets, the people of Liyue had sadness written all over their faces as they discussed the death of Geo Emperor and its impact on Liyue.

Su Chen took a deep breath and adjusted his mentality.

He knew that what he would be involved in next was not only political mediation, but also the appeasement of the hearts of the people.

As the patron saint of Liyue, the death of Geo Emperor is undoubtedly a huge blow to the people here.

Su Chen walked towards the meeting hall of the Seven Stars of Liyue, his heart filled with a sense of responsibility. He must play his part and help Liyue overcome this difficulty.

After all, I have taken the money, and I have to do the job after taking the money.

Su Chen stopped in front of the billboard, scanning the notices and messages from the public. He couldn't help but feel impressed by the resilience and mutual assistance shown by the people of Liyue at a time like this.

I happened to see a lot of Liyue people gathered around the Liyue notice board, looking at the notice board and talking about it. Next to the notice board stood two Qianyan Army soldiers, responsible for maintaining order at the scene.

Seeing this, Su Chen also came over to join in the fun. After you entered, you found that most of the information on the bulletin board was released by the Liyue Seven Stars.

There was the official announcement of the passing of the Liyue Emperor, messages asking the public not to panic, a letter of commitment from the Seven Stars, and so on.

Of course, there are also a lot of information posted by Liyue citizens themselves.

There were recruitment advertisements, job search information, and job application letters. In a corner, Su Shen saw a very unique message: [Looking for a husband]

[My name is Shen He, I am a lonely person. I happened to meet a man who I admired. He could cure the evil spirit in my heart, but he was out of reach. I couldn't sleep or eat well, and I was worried.]

[I don't know where my husband is today. I have been looking for him in Liyue Harbor for several days but have not seen him. I hope someone who has seen him can help me tell him that his wife is looking for him.]

But his attention was soon attracted by the "Looking for Husband" notice. The news about Shen He made him frown.

Ok?

Unexpectedly, after I stayed in the Wangsheng Hall for a few days, Shen He started posting a notice looking for her husband.

No, no, I have to go back and hold the meeting quickly. Otherwise, if Shen He, this woman with extraordinary strength, gets angry, who knows what will happen. She might even create another big hole in Liyue.

"Shen He is such a clingy girl. It seems I have to feed her well this time to repay her care."

Su Chen raised the corner of his mouth slightly and muttered to himself.

He clearly remembered Shen He's strong appearance and her special feelings for him.
