"Hmph, Su Nuo, you sure are bold." Suddenly, Beichen's cold voice sounded from behind her. Su Nuo suddenly turned around and saw Beichen Han standing not far away from her, walking towards her.

"Master." Su Nuo quickly knelt down.

Bei Chen Han stood in front of Su Nuo and snorted coldly, "Master, Su Nuo, you still have a master like me in your eyes?"

"I wouldn't dare." Su Nuo quickly kowtowed.

Bei Chen Han crouched down and pinched Su Nuo's chin, "Don't dare, why wouldn't you dare? In the past, I followed that damned Duke of Northern Chen. Now, I finally found Qian'Er. You actually came to snatch her from me."

Su Nuo's eyes were downcast, but she still said, "Nou'er doesn't dare."

Su Nuo wanted to laugh. Why would she want to fight with her master for that person? Wasn't this the most laughable thing? She had so many extravagant hopes, but every one of them only had to do with her master!

What did those other people have to do with her?

Bei Chen Han shook her off: "It's best if you don't dare, but even if you do, it's useless."

Su Nuo was stunned. She felt that something bad was about to happen, but she did not dare to raise her head. She was afraid that if she did, she would see her master's knife-like gaze.

It was too cold.

"Pack up This King's things and head back now." Beichen had already stood up straight, looking down on her.

Su Nuo raised her head and looked at Bei Chen Han.

Beichen laughed coldly, "Su Nuo, don't look at This King with such a gaze. This King is not Qian'Er."

Su Nuo tried her best to control her emotions as she whispered, "Master, Xiao'er will stay behind to take care of you."

"This King needs you, a female slave, to take care of him." Suddenly, Bei Chen Han's voice was completely cold: "Su Nuo, what is your motive for trying to get close to me like this? Are you trying to tell me that you are this king's benefactor and that I am leaving this king's side?"

Su Nuo quickly shook her head. "Nuo'er didn't."

How could she not know that these words were so hurtful? It was just that she was in so much pain that she had lost consciousness.

Should she be glad?!

"Su Nuo, I'll tell you this. No matter what tricks you want to play, or whether you want to break apart this king and Qian'Er, it's impossible. You're a female slave, so you just have to keep a straight face. As for the rest, if This King finds out, This King will definitely make you regret being born in this world."

Su Nuo lowered her head and looked at the mud at her feet.

"This King does not wish to see your face when he returns."

"Yes." The voice was low.

"You know what to do, don't play tricks."

"Yes." His voice became lower and lower.

Once upon a time, her master always liked to hold her in his arms and laugh. Why would there be a person like Na'er in this world?

Why was he so stupid?

Why are you so stupid!

Su Nuo lowered her head, but she could still see Bei Chen Han's footsteps. Every step was merciless, like a knife slicing across her heart.

It was just that he was no longer numb and could no longer feel any pain.

It was just like how her master wouldn't do that again. When he looked at her, he wouldn't say how stupid he was, but rather, he was wary of her tricks.

It was just that she didn't know. She thought she would never hurt him again, but that was only because she hadn't met anything that made her feel even worse.

At that time, she would not even know how to feel pain.

With the wind blowing, there were no leaves to fall.

Suño rose and reached out to brush the dust from his clothes, but his hand was halfway out, and when he saw the dust, he drew it back.

He followed his line of sight to the white and shallow room, then turned around and walked out.

A young maid happened to walk towards him. Su Nuo saw that she was the young maid who had followed Bai Qian the other day, and asked, "Can you help me with something?"

When the maidservant saw that it was Su Nuo, she smiled and said, "Sure."

"I'm going back to the capital. Can I trouble you to help me follow —" Su Nuo hesitated before spitting out her words. "Elder sister said not to worry."

Su Nuo actually did not want to shout. Although she felt that it was getting weirder and weirder, she did not want to. She just wanted to love herself and not cause any trouble.

The young maid was surprised. "If you want to go back, doesn't that mean that Miss will be heartbroken to death? Why don't you wait until Miss returns with the Second Prince before you go and talk to her yourself?"

Su Nuo laughed. So it turned out that Bai Qian had been good to her. Everyone knew. Was she the only one who didn't know how to be grateful?!

"About that, just help me out." Su Nuo did not lie, as she could not think of a suitable excuse. The young maid looked at Su Nuo with a pitiful expression and said, "Alright, you must be in a hurry too. I will help you talk to the young lady."

Su Nuo hurriedly said, "Thank you."

However, Su Nuo was still a bit surprised. They should know about her status as a female slave, especially this servant girl in front of them. If others knew about this, they would not even bother to talk to her, let alone talk to her like this.

Su Nuo lowered her head and smiled. This should be because of Bai Qian!

Because Bai Qian was a girl that people liked, and she was the younger sister that Bai Qian cared for, even the female slaves were very polite.

She wondered if she should thank Bai Qian from the bottom of her heart, thank this sudden sister, thank you for your care and love in such a short period of time, thank you — she had brought hope and a smile to her master once again.

Su Nuo lowered her face to her chest and walked out of the Bai mansion.

But, sorry, she couldn't do it.

It was really impossible for her to do something like this right now.

The main street was filled with people, but it was bustling with activity. From time to time, shouts and cries could be heard.

Suddenly, Su Nuo seemed to hear the words' grasshopper 'and raised her head. Sure enough, there was a hawker shouting not too far away. Su Nuo looked over and saw all kinds of small things made of grass on top of a small stall.

Su Nuo walked forward unconsciously. Seeing Su Nuo walk over, the little peddler immediately introduced her to him.

Su Nuo didn't know what the peddler had said. She just stared at the green grasshopper on the stand, and in her mind, she saw Ning Fei looking at her with that stubborn look. She must take that grasshopper.

Su Nuo quickly turned around and left.

Ning Xuemo was not a light injury to her heart, but she would never disappear.

The peddler called out to Su Nuo from behind. Seeing that Su Nuo had no reaction, he cursed.

Su Nuo was in a hurry. It seemed that if she stopped and turned around, she would see Ning Fei covered in blood.

Suddenly, Su Nuo stopped and stretched out her hand to feel around her body. Her unsightly face was now very pale. The grasshopper that Ning Fei had given her wasn't on her body.

Su Nuo felt that something was tightly grabbing onto her chest. It wasn't pain, but it made her unable to breathe.

Su Nuo remembered that she was afraid that Master would see her hiding in the luggage, and that the luggage was still in the magistrate's office. Thinking of this, Su Nuo ran off to the county magistrate.

After a few days, the people from the magistrate court recognized Su Nuo. When they saw her, they showed some respect.

Su Nuo stared at his ugly face and returned to the room. She hurriedly found the bag and started rummaging through it.

When the three grasshoppers appeared in front of her, she seemed to have lost all her strength. Su Nuo stretched out her hand and picked up the three grasshoppers, looking at them sadly.

When Prefect Wang learned that Su Nuo had returned, he rushed over to see if the Second Prince had any orders.

"Miss Su."

Su Nuo was shocked. She instinctively tightened the grasshopper in her hand and asked, "Is something the matter?"

Prefect Wang's gaze swept the surroundings, and did not see Bei Chen Han, so he asked: "It's fine, this official just wants to ask, does the Second Prince have any work for this official, a few days ago the Second Prince had let this official do it, and the citizens have a very good reaction."

Su Nuo thought back to the first day she and her master had come here, and the streets were filled with beggars. After hesitating for a moment, she said, "Master is currently in the Bai Clan. The lord can go there and ask the master."

She knew that her master must be wholeheartedly focusing on her sister. How could she remember such a thing? However, whether it was because so many people were suffering or because her master couldn't make a mistake, she should tell this man in front of her where her master was going.

Prefect Wang was somewhat surprised, but he did not express it. "Many thanks to Miss Su for your help. Miss Su, you're busy."

Su Nuo reluctantly smiled as she saw Prefect Wang off. Afterwards, she took the grasshopper with her as well. It was only after she was quite a distance away that she suddenly remembered that she didn't have any silver taels nor any food on her, much less the way back.

On the way back, Su Nuo looked at the straight road in front of her and smiled. She should be glad that her master told her to go back, and not throw her out!

Although she knows that it is a matter of time before the master, who loves his sister so dearly, throws her away completely, but it is also a matter of time!

Su Nuo suddenly smiled. She had always felt that she was very stupid, but at this moment, her thoughts were very clear as she walked back alone.

She knew that even though her master was the Second Prince, Luo He City was very far away from the capital, and now that there was a great disaster, no one knew that her master had already married her in the capital. Furthermore, at that time, she had kept a very low profile, so her master was sure that she knew about this.

If he chased her away now, then the next step would be to divorce her, draw a clear line between them from now on, and hide this from Bai Qian. Afterwards, he would make everyone shut up and cut off all possibility of Bai Qian knowing.

Of course, Su Nuo knew that Master would definitely eliminate all of his mistakes with this confession. However, Master also didn't betray anything from start to finish!

Su Nuo knew that this Master, who loved Bai Qian dearly, would definitely do something like this, and even more than this.

As Su Nuo walked, she stopped, as if she would faint if she were to take another step forward.

She would rather not, would she not, would she not? She would rather be at a loss like she was before and would think of all sorts of ways to keep her master, than to be like this, knowing all about it so well, and could only helplessly wait for the results to come true one by one on her body.

She did not wish to become so hopeless. That was because, at this very moment, she truly did not have any hope.

There was no hope!

Su Nuo buried her face in her knees and hugged herself tightly.

There was no hope of changing the outcome!

In the evening.

Bei Chen Han carefully held Bai Qian's hand and jumped down from the carriage, gently asking: "Qian'Er, how was it? Did you have fun?"

Bai Qian smiled and nodded. She then said regretfully, "If only Na'er could go with us."

Bei Chen Han's eyes lit up in the dark, and then he said gently: "We'll bring Na'er with us tomorrow."
