After going outside and chatting with Mr. Gu, Bai Yu'an walked to the carriage without even looking at Shen Jue.
Shen Jue glanced at Bai Yu'an, raised his hand and grabbed Bai Yu'an's back collar.
Bai Yu'an was startled when the collar got stuck on his neck. When he came to his senses, he had already taken a few steps back.
The previous ten years of cultivation were almost thrown away at this moment.
Bai Yu'an looked angry. He turned around hard and gritted his teeth and said, "Is Shen Chief Fu so easy to bully as a current official?"
Shen Jue saw that Bai Yuan was so angry, her chest was rising and falling, as if he was going to pounce on her and bite her in the next second, he was obviously really angry.
Shen Jue raised his eyebrows, finding it interesting, and continued to annoy her: "She is indeed easy to bully."
As soon as these words came out, Bai Yu'an's expression changed.
She thought that if she had something in her hand, she would definitely throw it at Shen Jue.
After enduring it, she said nothing. When she turned around and was about to leave, Shen Jue grabbed her wrist: "It's already dark. Why don't Master Bai go to the restaurant with me to have dinner before going back."
His eyes fell on Shen Jue's hand on his wrist. Those long and wide hands were holding his wrist tightly. Bai Yu'an tried to break free, but he couldn't break free at all.
Although Mr. Gu was sent away by Shen Jue, there was no one in the alley outside the gate.
But after all, there was still a gatekeeper standing at the door. Bai Yuan maintained his composure, stared at Shen Jue with his eyes, and said in a low voice: "What on earth are you going to do?"
Seeing how people could get angry so easily, Shen Jue couldn't help but smile: "I just want to have dinner with Master Bai."
Bai Yu'an was disgusted when he saw Shen Jue's face, and said angrily: "If I don't want to go, can Chief Chief Shen still force me to go?"
Shen Jue's eyes flickered with emotion, and he stared at the anger on Bai Yu'an's face: "Master Bai, you can give it a try."
Feeling the strength on her wrist relax, Bai Yu'an broke away from Shen Jue's hand and left coldly: "I can't afford to be a lower official."
After that, he turned around and got into the carriage without missing a moment.
A Tao stood aside and watched this scene with some fear.
She followed Bai Yu'an, stepped on the carriage with one foot, and glanced back accidentally, only to see Shen Jue's gloomy face hidden in the darkness.
A Tao felt panicked for some reason and quickly got into the carriage.
Arriving in the carriage, A Tao looked at Bai Yu and said with lingering fear: "Did Young Master offend Chief Shen?"
"What if Shen Chief Fu targets the young master in the court?"
"after all……"
Bai Yu'an leaned against the wall of the carriage, resting her fingers on her forehead and half closing her eyes.
She interrupted A Tao and said tiredly: "He bullied others so much that I still can't take a breath."
A Tao was a little puzzled: "But I think Shen Shoufu treats the young master well."
"Since I live in the young master's house, the last time the young master fell into the water, he even called the imperial doctor from the palace."
"Did Young Master misunderstand Chief Shen?"
A Tao didn't know what Shen Jue had done to her, and Bai Yu'an didn't want to say more.
She just wanted to have nothing to do with Shen Jue in the future.
I plan to wait until I return to Hanlin this time to talk to Mr. Yang about where I want to go to do academic and political work.
She knew that being an academician was not something she could just go to if she wanted to, but she didn’t ask for how good the place was, as long as she could go.
The noise outside gradually began to make noise. Bai Yu'an lifted the curtain and took a look outside, and the bright lights illuminated his face.
After asking the driver to stop, Bai Yu'an said to A Tao: "A Tao, go to the grocery store opposite and buy two animal traps."
A Tao thought she heard wrongly and looked at Bai Yu'an: "Why did you buy a beast trap?"
Bai Yu'an still looked outside and said calmly: "There is always a use for buying it, just go and buy it."
The grocery store opposite was not far away, so A Tao said to Bai Yu'an, "Master, wait a minute. I'll be back soon."
Bai Yu'an hummed and lowered the curtain.
After staying out for most of the day today, Bai Yu'an just felt tired. He closed his eyes and leaned behind him and rubbed his brow.
A Tao glanced at Bai Yu'an again, then got off the carriage and hurriedly walked to the opposite side.
Bai Yu'an closed her eyes and leaned in for a few moments when she heard footsteps approaching from outside, followed by the sound of the curtain being lifted.
She thought A Tao was back so soon, and when she was about to open her eyes lazily, she saw Shen Jue's smiling eyes in front of her.
Bai Yu'an was startled. Before he could scream, a handkerchief was covered over his face, followed by a black cloak.
When A Tao came back, he opened the curtain of the carriage but did not see Bai Yuan's figure. He quickly put down the things in his hands and looked around for someone.
This street intersection was the gathering place, and the crowd was crowded. A Tao searched around the crowd but didn't see Bai Yu'an's figure, and couldn't help but burst into tears.
He was sitting in the car just now, but why did he disappear in just a few seconds?
At this moment, someone suddenly stood next to her and shouted to her: "Miss A Tao."
Ah Tao heard the voice sounded familiar, and quickly turned around to look, only to see that the person standing next to him was Changsong.
Before A Tao could speak, Changsong said again: "Miss A Tao, Master Bai is with my family, Miss A Tao, don't worry."
Just now, he said he was going back, so why are he and Shen Shoufu together now?
Seeming to see the confusion in A Tao's eyes, Changsong smiled and said, "Just now, my lord happened to be going to a nearby restaurant for dinner, and saw Lord Bai standing next to the carriage, along with several colleagues, saying a few words. Just a few words and we went upstairs together."
But the young master had obviously rejected Shen Shoufu's offer, so why did he suddenly want to go to dinner together again.
And he didn't even say hello, which was not like the young master's usual style.
Although Changsong was indeed the person next to Shen Shoufu, A Tao still said: "Where are my master and Shen Shoufu at the restaurant? Can you take me there so that I can take care of them?"
Changsong pointed to the restaurant in front of him and said, "It's the one in front of Miss A Tao."
"Master Bai just said that Miss A Tao should go back first, but if you want to go and see it, I will take you up."
A Tao was still worried. In the past, the young master would hardly go out alone, let alone let her go back alone.
She nodded: "Then please take me up to have a look."
Changsong didn't say anything, just walked in front and led the way.
A Tao looked at the two knives stuck behind Changsong's waist, which looked a little scary, and she unconsciously distanced herself from him.
Upstairs, Changsong took A Tao to a door and said to A Tao, "This is it."
As he spoke, Changsong pushed open the corner of the door and whispered to A Tao: "My master is having dinner with Master Bai, so you'd better not go over and disturb him now."
A Tao looked inside through the crack in the door and saw a person sitting opposite Shen Shoufu. The man was dressed in white and had a slim figure, resembling the back of his own son.
She has served Bai Yu'an for so many years, and Bai Yu'an's back is almost remembered in her mind, and she rarely sees it wrong.
A Tao felt relieved and saw Changsong closing the door, so he said to Changsong, "I'll just wait here."
Changsong saw that A Tao was not leaving, so he just said: "Miss A Tao is willing to wait here, just wait, just don't go in and disturb the master."
A Tao saw that Changsong, who was Chief Shen's personal attendant, was also outside. He felt relieved and nodded.
