Chapter 162: Jin Tong Returned
His tone was filled with resentment. It was obvious that he was furious with Jin Tong.
Su Yan used her eyes to ask what Jin Tong had done.
Jin Tong cracked her lips into a smile but did not dare to make a sound.
An Yi coldly handed Jin Tong to Su Yan and left. He walked in a hurry as if he was being chased by a ghost.
Jin Tong raised her fist in displeasure. He was really a blockhead.
Su Yan helplessly let her in first and said, “Tell me, what happened?”
Jin Tong described what happened after she was rescued by An Yi from the imperial palace.
After she came out, she thought that she would wander the world with An Yi. She did not expect that An Yi would leave her outside the city and not even leave her some money.
Jin Tong could only mingle among the refugees. After a few pitiful days, the military camp recruited refugees as soldiers.
At that time, Jin Tong, who was disguised as a man, mingled in. A few days later, she met An Yi.
An Yi brought her here.
At this point, Jin Tong could not help but get angry. She said, “An Yi actually thinks that I went to the military camp to look for him on purpose. I’m so angry.”
Su Yan raised her eyebrows and looked at her.
This look made her explode. She asked, “Don’t tell me you also think that I did it on purpose.”
Even though she was angry, she did not forget to explain, “Even if I did it on purpose, I didn’t know that he was there.”
Su Yan quickly comforted her and said, “I believe that you didn’t do it on purpose.”
Only then was Jin Tong satisfied. She sat down again and said, “You have to explain it to An Yi properly. That stone is really unreasonable.”
Su Yan asked curiously, “Didn’t you say that he was made of wood? Why did he become a stone again?”
Jin Tong said hatefully, “Wood is just praising him. He is simply a stone that won’t be affected by force or persuasion.”
Looking at her gnashing her teeth, Su Yan shuddered. She did not know what would happen to these two lovers.
Jin Tong once again stayed in Guang Residence. However, her identity was special, so she could not wear her usual attire.
She reluctantly changed into the attire of a woman from the Imperial Kingdom. The iconic hair on her head was meticulously combed.
Her face was covered by a veil and she looked completely different from before.
Once she had returned, An Yi had never returned. She had only seen him a few times before, but at this moment, she could not even catch a glimpse of him.
Su Yan and Jin Tong were in the same boat. Gu Ruoyun had not seen her for a few days.
The two of them lay on the stone table in the courtyard and looked at the door. They had almost become husband-gazing stones.
Fortunately, Su Yan remembered her official business and was not led astray by Jin Tong.
Jin Tong looked curiously at the thick stack of paper in Su Yan’s hand. On it were densely packed plans written by her.
She excitedly said, “Su Yan, let me help you.”
Su Yan said in surprise, “You can do this? I didn’t expect this.”
She reached out and handed over a stack of plans. Jin Tong flipped through two pages but did not move.
Su Yan asked in puzzlement, “What’s wrong?”
Jin Tong spread her hands and said, “I don’t understand.”
Su Yan was helpless. She knew that she could not have any hope for her.
She asked her to put down the things in her hands and go eat some fruits.
Jin Tong obediently followed behind Su Yan. As she watched her busy, she gradually became a little interested.
Not long after, Chu Tao walked in with eight people and said, “Princess Consort, this is the manager of the Su family’s shop.”
Su Yan looked up. These eight people had different expressions, except Zhang Sheng, whom she had seen before.
The leader was a middle-aged man with a goatee. He looked like a philistine.
These people were obviously listening to him. There was a hint of disdain in their eyes.
Su Yan smiled and said, “Everyone, please introduce yourselves.”
The goateed man was the first to speak, “Greetings, Princess Consort. I am the manager of Su Ji Pastry, Niu Sheng, you can call me Manager Niu.”
There was a hint of self-satisfaction in his words. After all, among the few shops in the capital, his business was the best.
