Chapter 356: Still Had Feelings for Him

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

On the day Xiao Jue was scheduled to be executed, Su Ying asked Bai Shuang to book a private room at the best spot near the execution viewing platform.

Early in the morning, she dumped the two children with Xiao Jin and left the residence.

Su Ying felt that she was still a person who liked to be in touch with the sentiments on the ground. In particular, when she saw the officials escorting Xiao Jue in the prison carriage passing by, this kind of spectacle made her especially excited.

She was sitting by the window, holding a handful of freshly roasted melon seeds in her hand. Wisps of steam were rising from the melon seeds, and coupled with Xiao Jue’s glum face, Su Ying felt that the melon seeds in her mouth tasted even more fragrant.

Very early in the day, the streets were already crowded with people who wanted to gawk at the spectacle. It never occurred to them that the first time they got to see what the First Prince looked like would be when he was beheaded.

The moment he was brought to the execution ground, Xiao Jue finally panicked.

The way things were developing was wrong!

Why hadn’t his Empress Mother and the others come to save him?

As he looked at the Minister of Justice sitting on the chair, Xiao Jue’s face turned even more unsightly.

The Minister of Justice looked at the sky. After confirming that it was about time, he took out the arrow token and threw it on the ground harshly. “Proceed with Summary Execution!”

The long saber in the executioner’s hand glowed with a sinister, icy silver light under the golden sunlight.

Xiao Jue widened his eyes in horror. The moment the executioner raised his hands, a black arrow shot out and accurately hit the long saber in the executioner’s hands.

Clang! The saber was hit by the arrow and was flung backward.

At this moment, the masked men hidden in the crowd drew their swords and charged in.

When the Minister of Justice saw this, he immediately ordered the soldiers to stop them.

Both sides became embroiled in a fierce battle.

Su Ying looked at the chaotic and screaming crowd, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. The people from the Grand Mentor’s Residence were really patient. They waited until today to make a move.

The masked men all looked like highly-skilled experts, and the soldiers were soon at a disadvantage.

The masked men took advantage of the chaos to bring Xiao Jin into the crowd. The chaotic crowd further hindered the pursuit by the soldiers.

After Su Ying had watched most of the spectacle, she tossed the remaining melon seeds onto the plate and turned to walk downstairs.

She came out alone today, but since she was already out today, she decided she might as well take a look at her shops on the way.

Su Ying turned into an alley next to the teahouse and was about to walk down another street when she saw several masked men protecting Xiao Jue as they ran in her direction.

Xiao Jue was the first to see Su Ying, and the instant their four eyes met, Su Ying’s expression froze momentarily, and she immediately stopped in her tracks.

When they saw Su Ying in front of them, the masked men thought that she was here to block their way, so they instantly became so wary that all the hair on their bodies stood up.

Su Ying glanced at them indifferently. “If you don’t want to die, then scram.”

The masked men were stunned. They didn’t expect that Su Ying would let them go-

Xiao Jue also didn’t expect Su Ying to not make a move. Could it be that she still had feelings for him?

Xiao Jue cast Su Ying a look that was full of tender feelings. If he wasn’t still running for his life, he really wanted to run up to her and respond to her.

If Su Ying knew what he was thinking, she would definitely dig his eyes out!

If not for the fact that she wanted to watch the dog-eat-dog finale, she would definitely make Xiao Jue regret that he did not die at the hands of the executioner.

Xiao Jue had just left with the masked men when the soldiers caught up to them.

However, the soldiers took no notice of a woman like Su Ying and directly rushed past her.

Su Ying left the alley and turned around to head to her shop. As she passed by the dazzling array of shops on the street, Su Ying still couldn’t resist the urge to shop. Now that she had money, she couldn’t resist the urge to stuff things in her interspatial store!

Su Ying had always been a person of action. When she passed by another shop, she walked in at last.

She spent the entire morning doing shopping on one whole street. After practically every shopkeeper saw her off with beaming faces at the shop entrance, she finally stopped in satisfaction.

Su Ying stored everything in her interspatial store at the designated location before returning to the street.

“Help! Help… Argh!”

Su Ying had barely taken two steps when a delicate woman fell at her feet.

“Don’t run, bitch! When I catch you, I will kill you!”

A few boorish men quickly caught up with the woman.

When the woman saw them running after her, she was so frightened that she grabbed Su Ying’s dress tightly. “Madam, save me. Madam, please save me. I beg you, Madam…”

The woman kept kowtowing to Su Ying and she appeared downright pitiful.

Soon, the few boorish men ran over and grabbed the woman up from the ground by her hair. One man then gave her a vicious slap to her face. “You bitch must be tired of living. You still dared to run? I’ll beat you to death!”

The woman screamed in terror, her pleading eyes fixed on Su Ying. “Madam, save me. I beg you, Madam…”

Such a huge commotion attracted many people to gather around to gawk, but when everyone saw the boorish men, few people dared to step forward.

When she saw that the woman was about to be dragged away by the men, Su Ying slowly said, “How much is she? I’ll buy her.”

One boorish man sized Su Ying up from head to toe, then extended a hand. “50 taels of silver.”

50 taels!

The surrounding commoners all gasped in shock. An ordinary maidservant with fairly good looks could be bought with just two taels of silver. How good was this person to be able to command 50 taels of silver?

To everyone’s surprise, Su Ying agreed to the price without hesitation. “Alright, 50 taels. 1’11 buy her.”

Su Ying took out a banknote from her pocket and threw it over.

The boorish man didn’t expect Su Ying to give him the money so quickly. After checking that there was no problem with the money, he pushed the woman over.

“She’s yours.” After saying that, those boorish men took the silver and left.

The woman staggered over to Su Ying and knelt down. “Thank you, Madam. Thank you, Madam. Ming Yu will be Madam’s servant from now on. Ming Yu is willing to serve Madam and be at your beck and call.”

There was no emotion in Su Ying’s eyes. She only told the woman to get up.

“Madam, I was chased by those people because my father owed a gambling debt. My father pawned me off to them to pay his debts. Now that Madam has bought me, I am Madam’s servant. However, I still have an elderly mother at home. Before leaving with Madam, can Madam follow me home so that 1 can explain the situation to Mother? I am also worried that Mother will be worried. If Mother knows that I am following such a good Madam, she will definitely be relieved.”

She wasn’t asking for too much with this request so Su Ying didn’t refuse her.

“Alright.”

When she saw Su Ying agreeing, Ming Yu happily thanked her profusely. She then brought Su Ying to an alley at the end of the street.

The alley extended into a dead end. There was only an inconspicuous house at the end of the alley. If one did not look closely, one would not even be able to see the house.

“My house is just ahead.”

Ming Yu walked in front, occasionally turning back to glance at Su Ying, as if afraid that Su Ying would lose her way.

Soon, the two of them arrived outside the house.

Just as Ming Yu was about to knock on the door, her eyes turned sharp and she suddenly turned around to pounce on Su Ying.

Su Ying’s almond-shaped eyes flashed with an icy light. She turned her body to the side and grabbed the woman’s two hands before twisting them behind her back. With a kick, she stomped that woman’s face against the wall.

“Your acting is not bad..”
