“Why do we have to go?” Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were puzzled.

Xue Dagui spoke first.

“It’s because of that young master in red and that young lady in red. Ever since they came to our shop that day… Wait, didn’t you go upstairs with them?

“In the end, those two people came to our shop every day from the second day onwards. They sat in the innermost seat of the hall for a long time every day and didn’t order anything to eat. It has been three days in a row, and Xue Sifu still asked me to serve them tea.

“I don’t know what Xue Sifu is thinking, but Xue Sifu asked me to come back quickly and take you to town.

“Since you talked to them, shouldn’t you know that they are waiting for you?

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan didn’t expect Shao Zhongxi to visit their shop every day during the three days they weren’t in town.

However, after hearing Xue Dagui’s words, they immediately knew that Xue Sifu really couldn’t handle a cold prince coming to the shop every day and attending to them.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other.

Without waiting for Jiang Yue and Xue Yan to answer, Xue Dagui continued, “That’s right. They must be waiting for you. Only you know them. We don’t know them. So why would they want to talk to us?

When Jiang Yue and Xue Yan followed Xue Dagui to their shop in town, they saw Shao Zhongxi and Qi Yin sitting in the innermost seats of the hall.

Xue Sifu did not wait for them to enter the shop. When he saw them, he quickly walked out and pulled them to the side. He asked them in a low and urgent voice, “What is that prince trying to do? Tell me honestly. Is there something I don’t know? It’s been three days and he’s still here.”

“We don’t know what else he has for him to come to our shop and sit around like this.” Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both said.

Seeing how Xue Yan and Jiang Yue still said so after he asked, it meant that they really didn’t know what was going on. Xue Sifu frowned and said, “That’s strange. Why don’t you go and ask? Shao Shuting was saved by you. It should be fine if you ask, no harm done in asking.”

“He’s a prince. His status is different from ours. We better not go over the line and ask anything that might hurt us. Since he wants to sit there, let him sit there.”

This was their solution. They would ignore Shao Zhongxi and let him sit there to do whatever he wanted.

Shao Zhongxi could not possibly be so free in the future. He could still sit here every day until he had matters to attend to. Sooner or later, he would leave. After all, he was a prince. It was impossible for him to stay in this place forever.

“I don’t feel at ease with this thought.” Xue Sifu said. He wasn’t afraid, but the fact that he didn’t do anything made him feel bad. He was also a family member of Xue Yan and Jiang Yue, so the prince probably wouldn’t do anything to him, right?

However, this prince was always sitting there, so how could he feel at ease?

“But you’re right, ‘I Xue Sifu said again. “Our status is too different from his. It’s better not to go over the line and ask anything that could threaten our lives. Alright, you guys don’t have to ask anymore, but you guys should come to town every day. With you guys around, I feel more at ease.”

It was Xue Yan and Jiang Yue who had saved Shao Shuting. Moreover, he could tell that Shao Shuting liked Xue Yan and Jiang Yue very much. No matter what, Shao Shuting’s second brother, the soon-to-be king, would not do anything to them. With Xue Yan and Jiang Yue in this shop, even if the prince came to this shop every day, he would feel much more at ease..
