”Mother? What about you? Do you like Uncle Xiao or Uncle Liu? ”

Su Zhi smiled bitterly and tidied up the blankets for the two children, but did not say a word.

According to the social situation, she and Liu Yuan were the most compatible. However, according to what she thought, her heart was inclined towards Xiao Qian.

However, she didn't dare to admit that Xiao Qian's identity and status was not something she could entertain. She could only bury her subtle feelings in her heart and never think about them.

A Jin didn't have time to wait for her reply, and gradually fell asleep.

Su Zhi lit the oil lamp and took advantage of her free time to make cloaks for the two children. The weather became increasingly cold, and it was necessary to knit a scarf and hat.

She busied herself under the lamp. After an unknown period of time, there was another knock on the door.

At first, it was just a probe, but Su Zhi didn't pay much attention to it. But soon after, there was another knock on the door. Now, she was sure that someone was knocking on the door.

It's just that it's so late. I wonder who is it that has come?

Su Zhi stood up to open the door. After listening to the commotion outside, she asked, ”Who's there so late?”

The noise outside the door stopped. After a moment of silence, someone replied, ”It's me.”

This sound is... Xiao Qian?

”General?”

”It's me.”

Su Zhi suspected that she had misheard him. She opened the door doubtfully and saw that the one standing outside was indeed Xiao Qian, whom she hadn't seen for a few days.

He stood outside the door, shining like the stars and moon. The moonlight was also cold, but his pair of deep eyes were filled with endless thoughts.

This man's charm was that no matter what, he would be able to make people want to submit to him. This man was very scary, because it was unknown where his heart had gone to.

Su Zhi stared at him blankly, a strange feeling in her heart. She blushed slightly and asked, ”It's so late, General still hasn't slept.”

She did not ask him why he was here. She only asked why he had not rested.

”I... I'm still looking at the ground. ”

You can't sleep at night and look for me?

Su Zhi looked behind him. The courtyard was well-built, there was no need to come in the middle of the night, was there?

Xiao Qian looked at her with a sour feeling in his heart.

Tan Zhao told him that if he didn't act quickly, a moment of unrequited love would become a lifetime unrequited love.

Only then did he learn that Liu Yuan had come to visit again. After hesitating for an entire afternoon, he still rushed over without stopping.

Even Tan Zhao could see through his intentions, but he still followed etiquette. He did not dare to come find her, afraid that he would be displeased by Su Zhi like last time.

Forget it, now he didn't care about anything anymore. The woman he liked was about to be taken away by someone else. He did not care about etiquette anymore.

”I came here to talk to you.”

He hadn't even started speaking when Su Zhi's face turned red. She didn't know where to put her hands, so she suppressed the small emotions in her heart. She was nervous and sore.

Not waiting for her to blush for too long, Xiao Qian walked up and firmly held her in his arms.

Su Zhi cried out in alarm and quickly covered her mouth to prevent herself from shouting out.

”I'll take you somewhere first.”

He carried Su onto the horse, and closed the door behind them. Then, he mounted the horse and hurried towards the hill ahead.

It was late autumn and the night wind was strong.

Afraid that she would get cold, Xiao Qian took off his cloak and tied it around her.

It was Su Zhi's first time riding a horse, so she was not used to it. Fortunately, Xiao Qian was good at riding, which made her feel less bumpy.
