The Hidden Beauty

Chapter 65 I Have You in My Heart
Seeing Jiang Shiwan lowering her head and keeping silent, Song Huaizhi knew that what he said just now was too arbitrary, and he couldn't help but hesitate: "Meimei, I..."

He didn't know how to explain, and was even more speechless when he met Jiang Shiwan's suddenly raised dark eyes.

The woman in front of him had a pair of discerning eyes. He knew he couldn't hide it from her, so he had to step forward and said, "Meimei, when we arrived at the palace... I thought..."

"I thought I was going to lose you." Song Huaizhi had a sad look on his face, "I almost wanted to kill Yan Jinxi with my own hands."

Jiang Shiwan smiled bitterly: "For a moment, I thought I was going to die under her whip."

She originally wanted to put the plan to deal with Yan Jinxi after Liu Huining, but she didn't expect that she couldn't help but want to eliminate herself with the help of the Queen.

With the determination to suffer losses on both sides, she could only force Yan Jinxi to go crazy and even take action.

Song Huaizhi looked at her slightly pale face, and finally resisted the urge to touch her: "Do you know that you risked your life and almost got into trouble? If something happened to you, have you thought about the consequences?"

Jiang Shiwan's eyes were as dark as water: "Brother Song, Yan Jinxi is a princess. I have no other choice but to force her to take action."

"No matter what you want to do next, you must take good care of your body now." Song Huaizhi said with worries, "There is also Liu Huining in the Governor's Office. I absolutely cannot let him take risks again."

He stood up: "You can say I am arbitrary, you can say I am selfish, but I have decided to do this."

In his eyes, taking good care of her and protecting her seemed to be a responsibility and a mission.

Jiang Shiwan could only lie down, as the slightest movement caused the wound on his back to feel as if it was being torn apart.

"Brother Song, thank you."

Song Huaizhi smiled and said, "Have a good rest. I'll be next door."

"Song..." Before he could finish his words, Song Huaizhi had already walked out. Jiang Shiwan stared at the departing figure in a daze.

She murmured to herself: "But I miss my Ah You..."

Ever since Ayou was born, even though she didn't pay much attention to him in the first month, the mother and son have never been separated for a single day.

But now a day and a night had passed, and the torment made her feel as if thousands of ants were gnawing at her brain.

But now I can't move at all, and leaving is in vain.

"Madam." The maid came in again, "My Lord has asked me to make a bowl of bubble wontons, saying that this is the taste that Madam likes."

Bubble wontons are the way my grandfather eats them. My mother has loved it since she was a child, and Jiang Shiwan also likes it very much.

Each wonton looks like a bubble floating in the crystal clear soup, which is very tempting.

Jiang Shiwan took a sip, his eyes revealing a hint of surprise: "It's so authentic, did you make it?"

"I made it. I originally used chicken soup as the base, but the doctor said chicken soup is an irritant, so I used duck soup instead. It tastes just as delicious."

"What's your name?"

"My name is Xiaosu, and I am from Suzhou."

Jiang Shiwan hummed and said, "How did you come to the capital?"

"My family was so poor that we couldn't even afford to eat." Xiao Su smiled bitterly, "At that time, I went to Jiangning Army to find a job as a kitchen helper, hoping to supplement my family."

Xiao Su babbled on and on: "Once the adults were probably sick, and the noodles and porridge made in the kitchen were inedible."

"Everyone was so anxious, and then I volunteered to ask if the master would like to eat wontons. Unexpectedly, the master praised it highly after eating it, and even gave me a special reward."

"When you leave Jiangning, please let me go with you. I have been on this ship for a long time."

When Jiang Shiwan heard the word "boat", he was shocked: "You said this is a boat?" Xiao Su nodded in surprise: "Madam, don't you know?"

Jiang Shiwan looked around and felt it was incredible: "I thought... this was some house."

Xiao Su raised the windowsill higher: "Listen carefully, my lady, there is the sound of running water outside."

Because he was lying down, Jiang Shiwan couldn't see the scenery outside. He could only tilt his ear and vaguely heard the sound of water being drawn.

She didn't feel like she was on the boat at all.

"Is this... a very big ship?"

"It's huge!" Xiao Su said proudly, "I've never seen such a big ship before."

Jiang Shiwan endured the vague uneasiness in his heart and said, "Xiao Su, you said that Lord Song took you with him after leaving Jiangning. Have you been on the boat the whole time?"

Xiao Su looked at the woman in front of him who was seriously injured but still could not hide her beauty and was very envious: "My Lord asked me to stay on the boat and eat a bowl of wontons occasionally. He said that he must bring her to taste my cooking skills if there is a chance."

"Today I finally understand. I think the lady is the one that the master is talking about."

Jiang Shiwan's ears started to tinnitus, as if isolating her from the outside world.

She couldn't calm down for a long time. She never expected that Song Huaizhi would plan this.

He kept Xiao Su just because she could make bubble wontons, and he took himself to the boat away from people's eyes.

What does he want to do?
"Madam? Madam?" Seeing that she was in a daze for a long time, Xiao Su called her several times, "Did you hear what I said? My master said last night that the ship will go south and will stay in Suzhou for two days. I can go home to visit my family."

Xiaosu's face was filled with anticipation of seeing her family soon.

Deep down, Jiang Shiwan felt sad that he was drifting away from the person closest to him.

By the time Jiang Shiwan slowly finished a bowl of wontons, Xiao Su was very satisfied.

She wiped the corners of her mouth and rinsed her mouth: "Madam, take a good rest. I will go and see if the medicine is ready."

Xiao Su walked out of the cabin holding the empty bowl, while Song Huaizhi stood there, his figure blending into the vast water.

It must be a blessing for women in the world to be loved by such an extraordinary man!
"grown ups."

Hearing Xiao Su's voice, Song Huaizhi turned around and looked at the bowl on the lacquer tray. He nodded with satisfaction: "My lady, have you finished eating?"

"Yes, sir. My lady even praised my servant's good craftsmanship."

Song Huaizhi raised his lips and said, "Good! Xiaosu, you did a great job! Reward!"

Xiao Su hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you, sir."

"When you have time these days, make some snacks that you are good at. She likes Jiangnan snacks. As for the taste, I told you before."

Song Huaizhi kindly instructed, "Serve me well, and I will not mistreat your family members in the future."

Xiao Su felt a little inexplicably sad in her heart, but she still had a smile on her face.

"I finally know why you are so fond of my cooking skills. My lady will be very touched when she knows this. Don't worry, my lady, I will serve you wholeheartedly."

Song Huaizhi didn't notice the admiration and bitterness in her eyes, and murmured: "Am I good to her? I just feel that even if I pick the moon from the sky for her, it still wouldn't be good enough."
