Chapter 157 Love Will Find A Way (Section End) 2

“Jian Yue, do you know that Si Tuo has returned?” Along their way, there was only the sound of the horse carriage tapping on the road. After they left He Yuan, Su Shuilian broke the silent atmosphere. 

Did he come back? So the man yesterday was him? Was he the one who took her home? 

“It’s none of my business if he returns or not.” Jian Yue took a deep breath, pretending to be indifferent. 

“I know it doesn’t matter. I’m just chatting with you.” Su Shuilian smiled, continuing the topic. “Feng Yao Court has been moved to Fan Luo County. They’re going to do the ceremony today. But Si Tuo doesn’t know how, so he asked me to help with this. Don’t you think it’s funny? I also know nothing about this…” While talking, Su Shuilian observed Jian Yue’s face. Sigh, what is going on these days? Why did they all ask her to be the middlewoman? Was she really good at being a match-maker?  If you can read this, it means this chapter was stolen from pure tl .com

“Yeah, it’s funny.” Jian Yue moved her lips, her face emotionless while answering. However, high waves were seething in her heart. He moved Feng Yao Court to Fan Luo County? Was it because of her? Ha… What kind of dream is that… Jian Yue, what does it matter to you if he comes or not? You decided to give up, didn’t you? Just make believe he’s a stranger. A twenty-eight-year-old girl, normal men wanted to avoid her. She didn’t think that he really appreciated her. It was already a dream that he let her secretly stay by his side. How could she dream about him making such a big decision just for her? 

In Fan Luo County, the mansion, which used to be the Lu family’s house, around two houses away from the Duke’s mansion suddenly had a new owner. “Feng Yao Court” – the three firm and sharp words were carved on the red doors. Walking through the great entrance, it was the big house with three courtyards where the thirty key members of Feng Yao Court. There were other four independent courtyards where Si Tuo and his three other brothers built to rest. 

There were around three hundred members of Feng Yao Court scattered in various cities of Da Hui. In groups of thirty, these members had monopolized the secured transportation, escorting, mortgaging centers in the ten major cities. 

After renovation, Feng Yao Court was now the new, armed escorting services provider. Feng Yao Court would receive all requests regarding protecting people, goods, and events. However, when it came to assassinating missions, it would be the matter to be discussed by the four of Si Tuo’s brothers before the Court Master decided whether to receive the mission or not. And, even if they accepted the mission, Feng Yao Court would send the key members from the Headquarters to complete it. The others in the branches would only receive the escorting and transporting missions.If you can read this, it means this chapter was stolen from pure tl .com

“Oh, you’re here. Come in!” Si Chong was already there to congratulate the opening of the new headquarters. He smiled, inviting Su Shuilian and Jian Yue to come in. 

Placing down the gift in her hand, Su Shuilian helped the chef prepare the items for the worshiping ceremony. “Oh right, Jian Yue, could you please come to the kitchen and pick up the wine cups for me?” She pointed at the small corridor by the left of the hall. 

Jian Yue nodded, leaving the hall with an emotionless face.  

The chef looked in surprise as she watched Jian Yue walking in the opposite direction to the kitchen. She turned to Su Shuilian. “Madam, all the cups are here, aren’t they? Moreover, the kitchen isn’t in that direction…” She remembered clearly Her Ladyship had been to the kitchen before. How could she point in the wrong direction? 

Su Shuilian winked at the chef. “I forgot.” It was done on purpose. 

Jian Yue absent-mindedly walked on the path Su Shuilian had shown her until she reached the end. Looking at a beautiful, small house with chrysanthemums blooming in the yard in front of her, she recalled the moment she first met him. Then, she suddenly remembered that she wanted to go to the kitchen to find some wine cups. 

“Why are you standing here?” A low, husky voice arose behind her. Si Tuo was leaning on an old locust tree not far from her. His arms were crossed as he smiled at her.  puretl . com is the original transla tor, please do not re post

Jian Yue bit her lips, pretending to be indifferent. “I’m going to the kitchen to find some wine cups.” 

“The kitchen is on the other side. This is my house.” Si Tuo lightly explained. 

Jian Yue arched her brows. She wondered if Her Ladyship had shown her the wrong way or if she really intended it. As soon as the thought of the other had made a chance for her to see him, she felt agitated. 

“I returned home yesterday, and as soon as I came back, I picked up a little drunkard.” Si Tuo’s face was void of emotion, but his eyes were smiling, which revealed his good mood.

Jian Yue heard that, her eyes open wide, staring at him. The little drunkard wasn’t her, was it? Ah… Oh my! He had taken her home last night? Moreover, he had held her… Thinking about that image, her cheeks flushed uncontrollably. 

“Since the kitchen isn’t here… apologies… I’ve disturbed you.” She didn’t look at him anymore as she turned and walked on the previous path to return. 

Si Tuo pulled her into his embrace easily. She was powerless when it came to refusing him. 

“I thought you knew,” sighed Si Tuo. 

Know? Know what? Jian Yue struggled in his arms. However, she couldn’t get rid of his strong embrace as he still held her near and tight to him. 

“These years, I’ve been busy with Feng Yao Court’s matter. I know you’re under the order to stay and protect He Yuan. You cannot leave. I wanted to solve all the matters of the court before I could return.” It wasn’t easy to wash the entire Feng Yao Court and establish the escorting and delivering services in the cities and allow people and merchants to wholeheartedly accept them. 

“You… returned because of my brother and His Majesty’s request” She voiced her doubts directly. 

“Their suggestion has just helped me make up my mind faster.” Si Tuo smiled, scooping her beautiful face with his hands. She was at the same age as him, twenty-eight years old. Was there any woman that paid no attention to her age and people talking behind her back? Or, it wasn’t that she didn’t care, she didn’t care for her age, she only cared for him.  puretl . com is the original transla tor, please do not re post

“Jian Yue, are you prepared to wed by the end of this year?” He gently asked her for her opinion. It was the first time Si Tuo realized that he could be this tender and gentle. He used to make fun of Si Ling before because he hadn’t found her at that time. 

“You mean… you and I?” She opened her velvet, black eyes. Jian Yue lifted her head and looked at him disbelievingly. 

“If not, who else? To whom do you want to marry?” He smiled just like the chrysanthemums blooming in their yard. 

She wished for it… She wished to never have to vent her sadness alone after every wedding ever again…
