King Yu looked at Su Yueyue's paper - pale face with a look of heartache. "It's been so many days. Why aren't you getting better?"
Then he took out a bottle of medicine from his bosom. "This is a special trauma medicine for the royal family provided by a hermit. I begged some from my mother. I'll have someone try it on you later."
A blush flashed across Su Yueyue's bloodless face. She clutched the quilt tightly with her small hands. "Thank you, Your Highness. I'm extremely grateful."
Saying that, she tried to prop herself up to pay respects.
Seeing this, King Yu took a step forward to support her. "You're still not well. Don't get up."
He then gently pulled Su Yueyue into his arms. Su Yueyue shyly leaned on King Yu's shoulder, gently pursing her thin lips. She looked like a young girl in love, so cute that King Yu's heart skipped a beat.
This Su Yueyue is quite skilled at charming men.
Watching their sweet interaction, Su Mingyu couldn't help but shiver.
"I wronged you that day at the mansion. I still feel guilty about it," King Yu said softly with a look of pity on his face.
Su Yueyue gently shook her head. "It's okay. After all, the situation was like that at that time. Your Highness was just deceived by villains."
Su Yueyue's eyes unconsciously fell on Su Mingyu.
Seeing Su Mingyu's complacent look, Su Mingyu just stood obediently on one side, not even giving a glance to this "scumbag and slutty girl".
King Yu keenly noticed the interaction between the two, but he didn't expose it.
"When you're better, I'll take you out to enjoy the mountains and waters and lift your spirits. How about that?"
"Really?"
Su Yueyue perked up her head and smiled innocently. "I really wish I could get better right now."
King Yu deliberately glanced at Su Mingyu and noticed the perfunctory look in her eyes. He gently stroked Su Yueyue's face with his hand, then looked at Su Mingyu and said with a smile, "Miss Su Mingyu, would you like to come along too?"
"No."
Almost without thinking, Su Mingyu blurted out.
The air in the room suddenly froze. Su Mingyu quickly forced out a shy smile. "How could I be so presumptuous as to disturb Your Highness and my younger sister's date?"
Saying that, Su Mingyu lifted her foot and walked out. "Your Highness and my younger sister have a good chat. I'll go back first."
These two are so disgusting. If she stayed here any longer to watch this sickening display of mutual affection, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to hold back her eye - rolling.
Compared to this, she was more interested in the meaningful smile exchanged between Su Zhengyi and King Yu when she first entered the study.
Based on her experience, this smile must be hiding a secret.
It seemed that she needed to sneak into Su Zhengyi's study.
Just as she came out of Su Yueyue's room, a person silently blocked her way.
She was so startled that she instinctively assumed an attacking posture.
The man glanced at Su Mingyu and snorted disdainfully. "Weak moves."
Su Mingyu retorted, "You don't have to be so bitter about losing to me. Few people can dodge my attacks."
"You!"
This woman's ability to provoke people was truly remarkable. He really didn't know why the king was interested in her.
Mu Yi endured his anger with a gloomy face. "The king wants to see you."
What's going on today?
First King Yu, and now King Ruixian.
Was she stepping on a nest of kings?
"If it's about the blunderbuss, it can wait. If it's something else, I don't want to go."
After saying that, Su Mingyu turned around and was about to leave, but as soon as she took a step, Mu Yi, who was just behind her, flashed in front of her like a ghost.
Su Mingyu pursed her lips and tried to walk in another direction.
But before she could take a step, she saw Mu Yi's rigid face.
Fine, she gave up.
Although she was a top - level agent in the 21st century, there was no such thing as lightness kung fu in her era.
Sighing, Su Mingyu said with a cold face, "Fine... I'll go now."
Fortunately, King Ruixian's mansion wasn't very far from the Su Mansion.
It only took Su Mingyu about the time to drink a cup of tea to get there.
She sneaked in through the side door. As soon as she entered, Su Mingyu said impatiently, "King Ruixian wants to see me?"
Seeing her expression, Gu Ruobai knew that she had suffered a setback at Mu Yi's hands. He couldn't help but curl his lips into a smile.
"The blueprint you gave is very detailed, but there are many materials that need to be carefully selected. I still need you to take a look."
This Gu Ruobai really thought she was stupid.
She had given him all the experienced craftsmen. How could they not be able to make it?
Su Mingyu plopped down on the stool opposite Gu Ruobai with a dissatisfied look on her face. "You can just say what you want. There's no need to beat around the bush."
"Miss Su is truly as smart as a whip," Gu Ruobai said with an even broader smile on his face. "Actually, I asked you to come here just to ask when your clothing workshop is going to open so that I can prepare a gift for you."
Su Mingyu's heart suddenly sank. Her clothing store hadn't even opened yet. How did King Ruixian know about it?
But this man had been in the capital for so many years. He must have his own informants. It should be easy for him to investigate a young girl.
She crossed her legs and squinted her long eyes, smiling like a fox.
"The clothing workshop is still in preparation. It's not impossible for King Ruixian to be my honored guest, but I have a condition."
"Bold!"
Mu Yi drew his sword and pointed it at Su Mingyu's neck.
"It's already your great fortune that the king is willing to go. How dare you even talk about conditions?"
This woman was becoming more and more presumptuous!
Su Mingyu didn't even look at him. She casually picked up a fruit on the table. "The master hasn't said a word yet, but the dog is barking first."
"You!"
Gu Ruobai curled his lips into a smile. "What do you want? Silver? You couldn't have spent the three hundred taels so quickly, could you?"
It was really comfortable to communicate with a smart person. Su Mingyu snapped her fingers. "King Ruixian is truly intelligent."
She glanced at Mu Yi. "What I want is very simple. I want Mu Yi to teach me lightness kung fu personally until I reach his level."
"What?"
Mu Yi widened his eyes in surprise and immediately knelt on the ground. "My lord, you can't do this. I need to protect you all the time. How can I have time to teach a little girl lightness kung fu?"
