Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“You can go back first. I’ll see if I can find a key craftsman.”

Ji Shuisheng asked Su Qing for the key model and told her to go home first. He would go over later.

Su Qing was wearing a white fox fur cloak and riding the big black horse. The wind blew her hair. She was as beautiful as a fairy who had descended to the mortal world. Her cold temperament attracted the attention of passers-by.

“Come home with me first. Maybe you can find what you want.”

She looked at Ji Shuisheng with a smile as if the peonies were blooming in this world of ice and snow.

When Ji Shuisheng saw Su Qing’s smile, he could not help but obediently stay by her side.

As for her saying that he could find what he wanted, Ji Shuisheng thought a skilled craftsman in her house knew how to make keys.

“Su Qing, wait for me.”

When they passed the pastry shop, Ji Shuisheng called out to Su Qing. He couldn’t go empty-handed to his future father-in-law’s house, so he had to buy some gifts.

Su Qing nodded and dismounted to wait for Ji Shuisheng outside the pastry shop.

“Miss Su.”

A voice filled with joy sounded behind Su Qing. Su Qing knew who it was immediately. She turned around and nodded slightly at the person who had arrived.

“Young Master Chu, I hope you’ve been well.”

“How can I be fine? I’m sick.”

Chu Jingfeng looked at Su Qing resentfully. His voice was soft and weak, but his rosy cheeks and spirited eyes exposed him.

Su Qing only glanced at him indifferently and said coldly.

“You’re not sick. You’re very well.”

“You can even tell?”

Chu Jingfeng stopped pretending to be sick and returned to smiling.

Su Qing couldn’t be bothered with him and continued to look into the pastry shop. Chu Jingfeng wasn’t angry and followed her line of sight into the shop. He smiled at Su Qing like a spring breeze and said,

“Miss Su, do you want to eat pastries? I’ll take you in to choose.”

Su Qing glanced at him.

“No need. My fiance has already gone to buy it for me. Thank you.”

Fiance?

The smile on Chu Jingfeng’s face quickly froze. How did he become his fiance in just a few days?

He held his chest and looked at Su Qing with a severe expression.

“Give me a chance? You’ll know that I’m more suitable for you than him.”

Su Qing’s face was cold, not giving Chu Jingfeng any hope.

“No need.”

That contempt hurt Chu Jingfeng. He felt that even if he was the emperor, in Su Qing’s eyes, he was useless to her.

He was jealous of the man who could win Su Qing’s heart. What did he do to deserve such a perfect woman’s love?

Ji Shuisheng walked out of the pastry shop with four bags of pastries. When he walked out, he was still smiling. When he saw Chu Jingfeng standing beside Su Qing, his pink and jade-like face was more enchanting than a woman’s; the smile on Ji Shuisheng’s face instantly disappeared. His face immediately turned cold. He walked over to take the reins from Su Qing’s hands and said to her,

“Let’s go.”

“Alright.”

Su Qing nodded and said to Chu Jingfeng,

“Goodbye, Young Master Chu.”

After all, this Young Master Chu had helped her when she first arrived at Jingshi Dao, so Su Qing maintained her politeness on the surface.

“I want to duel with you.”

Unexpectedly, Chu Jingfeng stepped forward and stopped Ji Shuisheng, issuing him a challenge with a serious expression.

“Duel?”

Ji Shuisheng looked at him like he was looking at a fool. He did not hide the contempt in his voice towards Chu Jingfeng.

“Are you sure you won’t be beaten into meat paste by me?”

“Do you dare to fight? You don’t deserve to marry Su Qing if you don’t even have this courage.”

Chu Jingfeng looked at Ji Shuisheng in disdain. He had decided to fight him, and his words were filled with provocation.

If a man liked a woman in their country, they could take her home through a duel.

He decided to follow the customs of his clan and defeat Ji Shuisheng to snatch Su Qing away.

Ji Shuisheng looked at this gigolo who did not know the immensity of heaven and earth and laughed mockingly.

“Alright, I accept your challenge.”

Su Qing felt the two men were childish if they fought over her. She said coldly to Ji Shuisheng,

“Business is more important.”

Ji Shuisheng rubbed his palms together for a long time, but Su Qing’s words extinguished it. That’s right; serious business was more important. There was no need to accompany this pretty boy to be crazy. He glanced sideways at Chu Jingfeng, who was already prepared, and threw him a disdainful sentence,

“I can’t be bothered with you.”

“Stop. Are you a man? Words that were said were like nails that were spat out. If you promised, you had to fulfill your promise. If you didn’t dare, you had to admit that you were a coward and didn’t have the right to be with Su Qing.”

Chu Jingfeng strode before Ji Shuisheng’s horse, blocking his way. His two sword-like eyebrows stood up, and his body was filled with killing intent. He was a completely different person from the young master, who smiled like a spring breeze. His charming peach blossom eyes stared at Ji Shuisheng fiercely.

In their clan, a promise had to be made. Even if the sky fell, they had to fulfill their promise.

If Ji Shuisheng wanted to leave, he was a coward in his eyes.

“Alright, let’s fight.”

This kid’s provocation angered Ji Shuisheng. He handed the pastries to Su Qing and prepared to fight.

Su Qing could tell that Chu Jingfeng wouldn’t stop until he was beaten up, so she would let ShuiShuisheng beat him up so that he wouldn’t have to show off his affection in front of her in the future.

“I’ll go back first. You guys find a place to fight. Don’t delay business.”

Su Qing took the reins from Ji Shuisheng and told them to find a place with no one around.

Chu Jingfeng raised his eyebrows when he heard Su Qing’s words and smiled brightly.

“I’m the owner of this shop. Miss Su, please come over if you want to eat any pastries.”

When Ji Shuisheng heard his words, he immediately felt that the pastry was not fragrant anymore. He took the pastry from Su Qing and gave it to a beggar by the roadside. He turned around and looked at Chu Jingfeng coldly with a meaningful gaze.

When Chu Jingfeng saw Ji Shuisheng’s actions, his nose was almost crooked from anger. Wasn’t this saying that the pastries he sold were only suitable for beggars to eat?

Su Qing did not care about the open knives and hidden arrows between them. Anyway, she did not have to worry about Ji Shuisheng’s skills. She left the two men fighting for love and went without looking back.

Ji Shuisheng cast a sidelong glance at Chu Jingfeng. “Let’s go!”

Chu Jingfeng had also put away his sophisticated and elegant demeanor. His fair and clean face was cold, and his peach blossom eyes, which were always smiling, were filled with a murderous aura.

“Follow me.”

Chu Jingfeng turned around and walked towards the west. There was an abandoned martial arts arena there. Usually, no one went there, so it was perfect for duels.

Su Qing did not care about the two of them. After parting with them, she walked towards the Su residence. When she passed her newly bought restaurant, she saw the renovation ending. The signboard at the door was covered with a big red cloth. It was just waiting to open.

Su Qing went into the house to take a look. Those people didn’t know Su Qing and no one came over to ask. They were all busy with their work.

Su Qing looked around and was very satisfied. The decoration was very stylish now and looked like a high-class restaurant.

When she left the restaurant, she met Luan Hong, who had just returned from shopping. She looked exhausted. Like a young man, she was carrying things in both hands. The items were too heavy. She lowered her head and didn’t see Su Qing. She shouted,

“Come and help me carry it. It’s too heavy.”

“Give it to me!”

Su Qing reached out to take it. Luan Hong was overjoyed to see her cousin. She jumped and chattered beside her as if she had endless things to say.

“Cousin, how many days can you stay this time? Can I participate in the restaurant’s opening?”
