Finding the princess and protecting her was probably the mission of this episode, and she would get the hint to escape, right?
Su Xia touched her chin and calmly glanced at the first floor, Wei Sihao was still looking left and right sneakily. He seemed alert but in fact he ended up looking like a fool and attracted more attention.
He was most probably busy staring at the people around him and didn’t even hear what the storyteller had just said.
She withdrew her gaze, in the meantime there were already several dishes on her table. The table was full of dishes with tempting appearances.
Su Xia couldn’t help but gulp.
“I heard that Princess Ming Le is gorgeous and beautiful,” The storyteller once again gave another beat of the gavel, the voice was loud enough to wake Su Xia up from her distracted thoughts, “She has been good-looking since young, so the emperor of the Liang Dynasty has eyed her for a long time. She even has a natural body fragrance that can be smelled several meters away.”
Su Xia picked a piece of meat and slowly chewed it with her gaze on the storyteller while silently making notes of his words.
“Princess Ming Le is in favour of the colour blue, she wears a lot of blue outfits in the palace…”
Wei Sihao finally found Su Xia who was lounging at the ground floor, he then trotted down and sat across her.
“Xiaxia! Why are you treated so well!”
Su Xia handed him a pair of chopsticks, “You need to fight for it.”
She shrugged, “Be prepared to sneak out after eating, I don’t have any money.”
Wei Sihao took the chopsticks over and looked confused, “…”
“Princess Ming Le is unpretentious and treats the people around her well, there’s this guard who has been with her since she was a child. The princess left in a hurry state, so she did not bring anyone with her, and this guard is also looking for her. She has something that everyone wants.”
Su Xia lifted her chin and pointed at the storyteller on stage, “Did you get the point?”
Wei Sihao raised his head from the midst of eating and answered with a blurry voice, “What is the point.”
“…”
Oh, it seemed like he did not get it.
Su Xia smiled, “Not important, keep eating.”
She look around after eating, and finally saw the waiter who was standing at the stairway that was located not far away from her. Su Xia looked at Wei Sihao meaningfully, drank a mouthful of tea and cleared her throat, she was ready to slip away.
But at that moment, a yelling voice came from the first floor, “Grab that person on ground floor who intends to dine-and-dash!”
At once all the eyes of the people looked upstairs.
Wei Sihao was frightened that his chopsticks fell off.
Su Xia took advantage of this opportunity to get up directly from her seat in a flash and ran straight to the door.
She heard it, that was Gu Yu’s voice.
“Why are you just standing still! Grab hold of Su Xia, she’s eating without paying! Don’t let her get away!”
The waiters finally made their move, Su Xia was so close to escaping the tavern but was stopped by the two brawny men guarding the door.
She gasped and smiled sarcastically: “Brother, I do not intend to dine-and-dash, I just finished eating and had to leave first due to an emergency, there is still a person at that table, get him to foot the bill!”
Wei Sihao, who ran over right after her was confused.
He shouted, “Xiaxia, you’re betraying me!”
Gosh… He actually heard it.
Gu Yu put his hands over his back and proudly walked over like a boss, he arrogantly lifted his chin, “You fell into my hands at last!”
