Chapter 269 He has loved her for two lifetimes and knows her temperament better than anyone else
The man sitting on the throne hooked his finger and said, "Crawl over here."
"Su Rou" crawled on the ground and slowly moved towards the man's feet.
The man lifted her chin and looked at her face. "It's really a flawless fake. You've been staying with me for the past two days. It's time to go back."
Su Rou didn't say anything, but bent down and kissed the man's feet.
"After you go back, find an opportunity to attack the people in the Su Mansion. If you can kill Su Wan, then kill him. If you can't... it should be okay for you to kill the three brothers of the Su family, right?"
Su Rou held the man's hands with both hands, "Master, no problem."
When Su Rou walked out of the tent, she realized something was wrong. She took out a veil from her sleeve and put it on herself.
She rode her horse back to the city gate the same way she came.
The Crown Prince of the Desert has entered the city these days. The Desert people's camp is here, so nothing should happen...
Who knew that after taking only two steps, he ran into Su Chi, who was dressed in black and standing on a pile of corpses like a night Asura.
Su Rou was riding on a horse, and it was too late for her to turn around and avoid it.
Su Chi also saw her, his eyes narrowed slightly, his expression normal, "Why are you here?"
When he asked this question, there was no emotion in his tone, as if he was just asking what he had eaten in the evening.
Su Rou said, "I went out for fun and was about to return home. Third brother, what are you doing...?"
She hadn't finished her words when the sight before her was chilling.
Corpses fell to the ground in piles, and blood soaked the ground into a red muddy dirt road.
In addition to Su Chi, there were many soldiers waiting quietly behind her.
Su Chi wiped the blood off his face with his sleeve.
"It's none of your business. Go back quickly and don't tell the mansion or anyone else about my whereabouts."
At this time, will Su Rou just leave him alone?
"Su Rou" turned over and dismounted, walking towards Su Chi.
"Third brother, what are you doing? If Dad knew, I'm afraid he would scold you again."
Just as Su Chi was about to speak, a raindrop as big as a bean fell on him.
Then, one after another, drops of water fell densely from the sky.
It's raining.
Su Chi subconsciously used his clothes to protect Su Rou in front of him, "Let's find a place to shelter from the rain first."
Su Rou's horse was handed over by Su Chi to the soldier who followed him.
"Take shelter! Wait until the rain stops!"
The forest was soon wet by the rain, and Su Chi took her hand and rushed into a dilapidated thatched hut.
This place should be a place where people from the southern country would rest temporarily when they go out hunting and don't have time to return.
The room smelled of grass and showed no signs of human life.
After all, this place is still some distance away from the royal city.
Su Chi said, "The rain is getting heavy. When it stops, I'll send someone to take you back."
The house is run-down, but fortunately the walls are drafty, but the roof isn't.
But... there was wind blowing in from the crack in the wall, making Su Rou shiver.
Su Chi said, "I brought a tinder. Let's pick up the weeds on the ground and start a fire."
Su Rou said, "Third brother, are you cold?"
Su Chi's strong back suddenly stiffened, and the movement of bending down to pick up weeds also stopped.
"not cold."
"Third brother, I'm cold."
Su Rou had not been at home these days, so naturally she didn't know that he was not there.
Su Chi built a fire, and the warm flames illuminated the dilapidated house a little brighter.
Su Rou stretched out her hand to warm herself by the fire. "Third brother, what happened to those corpses in the woods just now?"
Su Chi said, "There are spies from the desert wandering around the royal city. I'm going to take action on behalf of that old guy from the Southern Kingdom to deal with him."
Actually, that's not the case. The target of those spies in the desert is not His Majesty the Southern Kingdom, but their Su Mansion...
Su Rou continued, "Desert people? Why are they here?"
Su Chi's eyes became colder and colder, full of alienation and indifference.
This fake Su Rou wanted to test whether he had noticed that she came out of the desert camp.
Su Chi said, "At the beginning of spring in the South, a grand ceremony is held to pray for good weather and good harvests. The Crown Prince of the Desert comes as a governor to pay tribute, so it's no surprise that people from the Desert come here."
Su Rou smacked her lips and said, "Third brother, I'm thirsty. Give me a drink from the water bag."
Su Chi looked at his waist and said, "This is filled with wine."
Su Rou said, "Wine is fine too. It can warm me up. My hair is all wet from the rain. Even though you brought me to this house in time, I still feel cold when the wind blows."
Su Chi didn't say anything, took off the water bag and handed it over.
Su Rou opened the lid and took a small sip. The burning taste stung her throat.
She frowned.
Su Chi looked at Su Rou sitting in front of him across the fire, and it seemed increasingly unreal...
This fake one is indistinguishable from the real one.
But those eyes were nothing like hers.
It was late at night and the place was quiet. The heavy rain outside had not stopped yet, and some of the dripping rain was swept in by the wind.
The surroundings were unusually quiet, and the flames of the fire were dancing happily.
Su Chi's figure was printed on the wall.
His figure grew longer and longer on the wall as the fire danced.
Su Rou drank too much and fell asleep on his legs.
His hand brushed away the strands of hair in front of her face. Except for his eyes, he looked exactly like her.
He picked up the waterskin and poured a mouthful of wine down his throat.
The soldiers in the barracks would bring him a can when they drank together.
He was not good at communicating with others. He preferred to sit alone on the hill, watching the hustle and bustle in the military camp, and then drink a sip of wine.
A man won't get drunk from just one sip of wine.
But he wanted to get drunk right now so that he could forget that the Su Rou in front of him was fake...
He covered her lips which were still wet and smelled of wine.
He has loved her for two lifetimes and knows her character better than anyone else.
He knew the one in his arms was fake.
Just think of it as... making up for his regret.
Su Rou woke up just as the sky was getting light.
She was about to sit up due to the aches all over her body, but she felt a strong arm around her waist.
She turned her head and saw Su Chi lying beside her.
She was stunned.
She is not good at drinking. That one sip yesterday could have made her lose consciousness.
But... aren't Su Chi and Su Rou brother and sister? Why did what happened yesterday?!
Even if they are half-siblings, such a thing is really unethical!
The rain outside had stopped. She wrapped herself in clothes and fled out of the thatched hut in fear.
As she passed by the grass, a drop of dew dripped from the leaves to the ground.
The stone wall at the gate of Jingzhou City was full of vitality after being washed by heavy rain.
People were coming and going at the city gate, and vendors were shouting their wares.
At the city gate, there is a Hongluanlou restaurant, and many beautiful women stand at the door, smiling and soliciting customers.
"Master, come in and listen to some music."
A man passing by stopped and looked at the scantily clad woman. "You have no money, so why are you listening to me for nothing?"
The woman rolled her eyes at him in disappointment, "How can you listen to music for free?"
"What if I have to listen to it for nothing?" the man said as he rushed forward to hug the woman.
The woman was so frightened that she stepped back repeatedly, shouting, "Mom! Come quickly, someone is taking advantage of me."
The madam of Hongluanlou picked up a broom and rushed out of the building.
"That blind bastard bullied my daughter? Get out of here! What's the point of listening to music if you don't have money?"
The man was frightened by the madam's display. He spat in the corner and cursed, "What kind of zither girl is standing on the street dressed like this, calling people in to listen to her music? If you don't sell it, your place will go bankrupt sooner or later!"
The madam picked up a broom and chased after him, "Who are you calling bankrupt?! Ah! See if I'm going to beat you to death today!"
"Ah!" A shrill voice from Hongluan Tower broke the tranquility of the street.
Someone upstairs shouted, "Mom! The girl in the room is awake!"
"Where's mom?! Go find her!"
There was a loud noise of banging in Hongluan Building.
Several girls swarmed towards the madam and pulled her back.
"Mom, go back and check, the girl in the room has woken up!"
A room full of women were trapped inside, and when the madam arrived, they all made way for them to leave.
Su Rou lay on the bed helplessly as if her whole body was falling apart.
Help! Where is this? Why are so many people staring at her?
"Give me some water. I've become so dry!"
Every time the madam said something, there were several responses.
"Oh yes, water."
"Quick, pour some water."
A beautiful and virtuous woman came over with tea, and her dry lips were slightly moistened and became a little rosy.
The madam asked everyone else to leave first, leaving only Su Rou and the madam in the room.
The madam sat on a stool and came over to take a look at Su Rou.
She thought she was going to be asked something, and looked at the madam with some caution.
"I didn't ask the person who sent you here if you can speak."
Su Rou: “?”
