Su Wenxiu’s eyes lit up. “It’s delicious!”
Su Wenzhe took a bite and said, “It does taste different from instant noodles, but it’s still delicious.’
Although the family had just eaten, they felt they could still eat more. Su Binglan looked at Su Fengmao and said, “Father, have some too.”
“I’ll wash my hands first,” Su Fengmao chuckled.
Then Shen Qiuhua helped serve him a bowl. She passed him some chopsticks, and everyone ate at the table.
Su Fengmao took one bite, and his eyes lit up. “It tastes incredible. Although the instant noodles were good, the soy sauce noodles are unique.”
Su Wenxiu was starving, and the instant noodles he had just eaten were insufficient. He quickly took a few mouthfuls of the soy sauce noodles and praised, “I didn’t expect to eat two different noodle dishes that both taste amazing.”
“Only our sister can make such delicious food.” Su Wenzhe looked intoxicated as he ate his share.
After all, delicious food could change one’s mood as eating was also a form of enjoyment. The family chatted and laughed as they ate together, creating a harmonious atmosphere. It was warm and lively whenever the family gathered around the table like this.
Su Binglan looked at the door and wondered how Lan Ruozhu was doing. She even wanted to go and check on him when Su Wenwu came out and said, “Brother Ruozhu is still sleeping, so I didn’t wake him up. Should we leave some food for him?”
Su Binglan sighed in relief when she heard her brother was sound asleep.
Sleeping a while longer would be beneficial for his recovery, after all. She said, “That’s okay. I’ve prepared ready-made ones that are convenient to boil.
Ruozhu can have them after he wakes up. It’s best to eat while they’re hot.”
Su Wenwu smelled the delicious aroma when he returned. It was different from the instant noodles he had just eaten. He did not even need to guess and knew how delicious the soy sauce noodles were just by looking at everyone eating so happily.
Although he had just eaten, he was not full and felt he could eat more. Therefore, he quickly grabbed a bowl and started to eat. After taking two mouthfuls, Su Wenwu exclaimed, “Wow! It’s delicious!”
He immediately stopped speaking and continued eating his noodles.
Su Binglan was delighted to see everyone enjoying her food. Soon after, she went to see her brother.
She had arranged for Lan Ruozhu to stay beside her room. The courtyard was tranquil, and the Shadow Guards stood in the dark. Only Blue Eagle looked after Lan Ruozhu in the open.
The Shadow Guards saw Su Binglan approaching, and those who had helped her destroy the Pavilion of Assassins could not help but look at her admiringly. After all, they had witnessed her formidable skills and overwhelming attacks.
The Shadow Guards felt it was too satisfying to see her destroy the enemies. Most importantly, they suspected Su Binglan was Princess Lan Ruobing because the latter was the only one who could play the flute and coordinate them well.
Lan Ruozhu was still sleeping when Su Binglan entered the room. Blue Eagle stood respectfully by her side and greeted the young lady with a bow, “Miss Su.”
Blue Eagle had always called her “Princess Lan” in the past. However, he changed his form of address after Su Binglan corrected him.
Su Binglan nodded and quietly approached the bed to check Lan Ruozhu’s pulse. After confirming he was much better, she felt relieved. “Go to the main hall and have something to eat, Blue Eagle. I’ve prepared instant noodles and soy sauce noodles.”
“That’s okay, Miss Su. I’ll stay here.”
“That’s an order. Go and eat while I stay here and watch over Ruozhu.” Su Binglan did not treat Blue Eagle as a mere subordinate because she had grown up with him and Lan Ruozhu when she lived as Lan Ruobing. She treated Blue
Eagle as her own.
Blue Eagle heard Su Binglan’s stern yet caring words and went to eat.
Soon after, Su Binglan took a silver needle and performed another round of acupuncture for her brother. Lan Ruozhu slept more comfortably, and the sky was already dark when he woke up.
He had slept well after soaking in his medicinal bath. He felt like he had made up for all the sleep he had lost in the past while staying at the Su family’s house.
Lan Ruozhu’s entire body felt relaxed when he woke up. However, he immediately thought of something serious when he saw Su Binglan. “Sister, when are you going to the border?”
Su Binglan said, “l wanted to leave tonight, but I must go to town tomorrow and prepare some things.”
Although Lan Ruozhu was not at ease, he knew his sister was stubborn and would not change her mind once she decided something, not to mention such an important matter.
“Are you looking for Jin’an?”
When Lan Ruozhu first arrived in Teng County, he had tasked someone to gather information on Su Binglan. From there, he discovered MJei Jin’an had changed his name to Luo Jin’an and became Su Binglan’s husband.
He had mixed feelings about it, as he did not expect Wei Jin’an to become his brother-in-law.
Su Binglan thought of Luo Jin’an, and tears covered her beautiful eyes. She said softly, “Yes, I want to look for him. I’m worried, Rouzhu.”
She was more than just worried—her heart longed for him. She was fine during the day because of how busy she was. However, she would always overthink when she went to sleep at night. She also often dreamed of Luo Jin’an.
Lan Ruozhu rarely saw his sister with such an expression. He knew he could only support her regarding Luo Jin’an. “Okay, I’ll arrange for Blue Eagle and the Shadow Guards to protect you.”
Su Binglan shook her head. “No need, Brother. I can protect myself.”
“You need extra protection.”
The siblings were persistent, but Su Binglan ultimately compromised and agreed to bring Blue Two and Blue Three to the Great Desolate Region. However, she insisted that Blue Eagle, Blue One, and the other Shadow Guards stay by Lan Ruozhu!s side.
After Lan Ruozhu woke up, Su Binglan made him some instant noodles. She also added medicinal herb water to everything she made for him to make them more beneficial to his health.
Su Binglan continued working until midnight. She woke up early the following day to make more preparations and went to town. She overheard a discussion as she passed the town’s bustling area.
“Have you heard? Someone destroyed the Pavilion of Assassins, even though they had just risen in the martial world.”
“R-Really? The Pavilion of Assassins was a mighty force in the martial arts world. Did someone destroy them just like that? That person must be formidable.’
“It’s true. A friend of mine said the Pavilion of Assassins disappeared overnight. No one knows who did it..”
