“Sister-in-law?” he greeted.
Shen Yijia suddenly turned around and saw who it was. Her eyes lit up. “Ah Yu, what a coincidence. You’re here to eat too?”
Ah Yu?
The smile on Shangguan Yu’s face froze. He clenched his fists and coughed lightly before nodding. “I brought the envoys of the two countries here for dinner. Sister-in-law, are you preparing to leave?”
Shen Yijia rolled her eyes. With the envoy around, the dishes definitely wouldn’t be poisonous. Thinking of this, her face immediately fell. “Hey, I haven’t eaten yet. This shop’s business is too good. There’s no room left.”
The waiter was stunned and retorted, “Ma’am, it’s clearly over there… Ouch!”
Shen Yijia stepped on him heavily and looked at Shangguan Yu, blinking her big eyes innocently.
“Waiter, I’ll pay for one room.”
“Ma’am, are you done eating? Please come downstairs.” The waiter led the way downstairs.
Shen Yijia, who did not have a private room, was speechless.
Shangguan Yu had seen Shen Yijia’s actions just now. Seeing her dumbfounded expression, he couldn’t help but laugh.
He pretended not to know anything and said kindly, “Sister-in-law, if you don’t mind, eat with us.”
Shen Yijia thought to herself, “Hehe, can you stop smiling as if you’ve seen through everything?”
Although she thought so, she still had to cooperate. She nodded seriously. “Sure.”
Shangguan Yu was speechless.
He felt that Shen Yijia was waiting for him to say this.
This private room was the best in Yuelai Restaurant.
There were two compartments inside and outside. There was a screen in the middle.
Shen Yijia and Bruiser followed Shangguan Yu around the screen and saw a certain someone inside. Her eyes widened. “Why are you here?”
Xuanyuan Ziming, who was toasting Duke Ping and Lord Jing, shuddered and spilled the wine.
“I- I…” Xuanyuan Ziming stammered, not knowing what to say.
He had been wondering why he felt that he had forgotten something these past few days. It turned out that he had forgotten to confess his identity to this girl.
Xuanyuan Ziming’s sudden abnormality made the others present look at the unfamiliar woman Shangguan Yu had brought in.
“Sister-in-law, do you know the Third Prince?” Shangguan Yu asked.
Shen Yijia tilted her head. “The Third Prince?”
By the way, Qian Youde said that the beautiful uncle was his biological uncle. If the beautiful uncle was Lord Jing’an of the Xuanyuan Kingdom, wouldn’t Qian Youde be the prince of the Xuanyuan Kingdom?
Thinking of something, Shen Yijia carefully sized up Xuanyuan Ziming for a long time and shook her head seriously. “I don’t know him. I got the wrong person. He looks like someone I know.”
She was Song Jingchen’s wife and could be familiar with Qian Youde, but she couldn’t be on good terms with the Third Prince of the Xuanyuan Kingdom.
Xuanyuan Ziming patted his chest in fear. “You scared me to death. I thought one of my female friends had come looking for me again.”
“However, this young lady is so good-looking. If she’s really my confidant, I definitely can’t bear to abandon her.” After saying that, he opened his fan and waved it.
These words were clearly very frivolous to a woman.
Shangguan Yu frowned. “Third Prince, please be careful with your words.”
Xuanyuan Ziming seemed to have realized that something was wrong. He knocked his head with his folding fan. “Oh my, look at me. I’ll drink three cups as punishment.”
He drank three glasses of wine in a row and stood up. He cupped his hands at Shen Yijia. “Young lady, just treat what I said just now as nonsense. Just let it go. Don’t take it to heart.”
The two women present looked disgusted when they heard him say such vulgar words.
Lord Jing’s gaze lingered on Xuanyuan Ziming and Shen Yijia’s faces. In the end, he smiled at Shangguan Yu. “Second Brother, who are these two?”
Shangguan Yu introduced, “This is Ah Chen’s wife, Second Miss Shen. The other one is Sister-in-law’s sworn brother. I happened to meet them outside just now, so I invited them in for a meal.”
Actually, no one had told him who Bruiser was, but when he heard Bruiser call Shen Yijia Sister, he automatically thought so.
Lord Jing was not interested in a sworn brother. He looked at Shen Yijia with a faint smile. “So you’re my sister-in-law. I’ve heard a lot about you!”
Shen Yijia called out obediently, “Brother-in-law.”
Lord Jing was speechless.
Was this the same person he had heard of?
According to An Xiu’er, Song Jingchen’s wife only had brute force, and she was actually extremely vulgar.
Shen Ruyun said, “My second sister is as timid as a mouse and as stupid as a pig.”
As for Liu Piaopiao, she said Shen Yijia was hypocritical and cunning. If not for her, her parents would not have died.
