Shangguan Lin and Su Xinyu chatted for a long time, of course most of them were just eating. Su Xinyu did not conceal her intentions. However, when Shangguan Lin finished listening to Su Xinyu's thoughts and said that she wanted to open a restaurant, he was moved. In the past few days, he had also thought that since Xinyu was special to him, and was fortunate like this as well, he might as well leave his by his side after the Fourth Brother is done with it. However, after hearing what the little girl said, he suddenly hesitated.

If she accepted it from him, she wouldn't be able to be his advisor or follower. He couldn't bear to have Zhou Xinyu as his servant. However, regardless of whether it was his wife or concubine, once they entered his mansion, he would no longer be able to show his face. That was equivalent to destroying all of the little girl's dreams. He knew that even if the little girl fell in love with him, she would not be happy when she couldn't do what she liked.

Wen Ling was stunned and did not say anything for a long while. Su Xinyu put down the teacup, "What? You think I'm dreaming? I know you men despise women. I think women can't do big things. At most, I'll just pretend to be a man. " Actually, this was the method that she had thought of recently when she was recuperating in bed. Although this could be considered lowering her head to the secular world, what could she do if she didn't have enough strength to do so? He really didn't have any thoughts on getting married. If he disguised himself as a man, it would be the same if he adopted a few orphans as well. As long as one concentrated on doing business in chef and did not touch any love, one would not necessarily be discovered. So she wasn't joking.

If it was anyone else, they would definitely think that this little girl was speaking nonsense. But Shangguan Lin didn't think so. He was very clear about Zhou Xinyu's personality. "This little girl really can do it just like that." What about your parents? "

Su Xinyu was speechless, "Of course I want to take my mother with me. But don't tell anyone. That dad of mine, in her heart she only had my mother and me. I've seen him only a limited number of times in my life. How many years have I not seen him for? In short, he didn't think much of my mother's background. If he really became an official, then my mother's position would be in peril. I don't think he'll protect us. I might as well leave as soon as possible. "

Shangguan Lin had no way of agreeing to this. Even if he had three wives and four concubines, as an official, he could not give up. The identity of your first daughter will never change. Furthermore, how can someone bully your temper? "

Su Xinyu raised her eyebrows: "Who likes it? He was supported by my grandparents and my uncle. Now, I'm depending on my grandparents, my mother, and even me to support them. I'd rather not have a father like that. " After saying this, she felt that she had spoken wrongly, but the words she said out couldn't be taken back. Thus, she asked, "Do you feel that I'm particularly unfilial?"

Unfilial? If anyone else had answered, they would have answered in such a way. But to Shangguan Lin, if a father was not benevolent, then where did the son come from? If the father was not kind enough to not care about the life and death of his children, even to the point of being the accomplice to the death of his children, then there was no wrong in having such a father. Just like His Majesty right now, why would he want to come to the Royal Father who was poisoned but still trusted the Lou Empress and the Lou Clan? So after so many years, wasn't he doing his best to bring down this father? Therefore, compared to Su Xinyu, his actions were probably even more unfilial in the eyes of the people. As long as you have a clear conscience, I support all of your decisions. "

Su Xinyu laughed. I knew that the Ling Ge was different from others. Foolish filial piety is really something to be reckoned with. "

"Yeah. However, we can just whisper these words to each other. Don't tell anyone else. There will be danger. "

Su Xinyu nodded, "That's true. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have said those words. "

Shangguan Lin's heart warmed. Actually, as long as he could protect this little girl, he could be a true bosom friend without caring about his gender. Watching her do what he wanted to do might be a way to fulfill his dream.

Su Xinyu wasn't sure either. As long as she saw Wen Ling, she would feel at ease. Even if she guessed that this person was at least the son of an official in the imperial court, she was still afraid. It was probably because he agreed with whatever Wen Ling said. It was not easy to have someone in this world who was not pedantic and who could listen to the nonsense of a child of his age.

Since the day she came back from Wen Family Great House. Mr. Li came over the next day to continue teaching. Su Xinyu also returned to her busy life, naturally she did not have the time to go up the mountain, and did not have the chance to see Wen Ling.

However, all of this did not change much for Su Xinyu. Right now, she only wanted to enrich herself more and more so that she could live better. As Zhou Sanlang's exam date neared, along with the arrival of the autumn wind, the atmosphere of the entire Zhou Family began to change.

Big Yan's examination was held in the autumn, when the season of high autumn was cool and refreshing. The children could also have their eyes lit up, and they would be able to show good intentions during the harvest season.

His Madam Su had been extremely tense recently as well. She went to the temple five times a month to pray, causing Su Xinyu to become restless. However, her anxiety was completely different from her mother's. Because she was getting closer and closer to getting out of here. However, she did not know how to leave. Moreover, the most crucial point was her mother. If her mother couldn't let go of that trash of a father, then there was nothing she could do about it. But if mother was willing to leave, as long as Zhou Sanlang passed the exam, no matter if he was released to be an official or stayed in the capital to work, the mother and son pair would still look for Zhou Sanlang. At that time, she would ask Wen Ling to find someone to disguise as the thief. As long as they pretended to be robbed, they could change their appearances and live in another place with an unknown name. She absolutely did not believe that Zhou Sanlang would go out of his way to search for them.

However, even if the test was to end, there would still be a month of preparation time. In the test, the High Scholar's son would participate in the Hall Competition, and the Emperor would personally select the final top scorer to see the flowers. So when the Zhou Family was calculating the time, Su Xinyu was also calculating the time. And while there was one day when Mr Li's family was not home, she secretly ran to Wen Family Great House by herself.

"Seeing Su Xinyu, Xiao Tong was shocked. Aiyo, my great-aunt. You came alone? Did you climb the mountain to come here? "

Su Xinyu looked at the dead leaves on her body, and it was no wonder that Xiao Tong could guess what it was. Is Ling Ge home? "

Xiao Tong hurriedly nodded. "I'm here. I'll take you to him. Do you want to wash up first? "

Su Xinyu quickly waved his hands. No matter how familiar they were, she couldn't bathe in someone else's home. Besides, even the servants in this house were men. Where would she find a girl to change her clothes? "It would be better to just leave it at that." No need. "I have something to do."

"Seeing Su Xinyu's appearance, Shangguan Lin was also shocked. What happened? " He waved his hand. Xiao Tong understood and immediately left the room, closing the door tightly.

Su Xinyu sighed: "Nothing happened. But I want to ask you a favor. It's a great deal of work, you can say no, but don't tell anyone else. I beg of you. "

Shangguan Lin became even more serious. "To be able to get Xinyu to talk about such a serious matter, it must be something important." Say it. I'll do anything I can for you. "

"Su Xinyu then told Wen Ling his thoughts. I know my thoughts are childish, but this is the only way I can leave the Zhou Family. I don't like this family. I don't want to live at the mercy of others. I didn't want to see my mother at home wiping away her tears. I didn't want to marry someone I didn't even know, who might even be an old man, one day, in order to take advantage of him. I have my own life to live, and although it's hard, I want to be free! "

Freedom … What a beautiful phrase. Shangguan Lin looked at Su Xinyu's shining eyes and nodded, "Okay. Actually, even if your mother wasn't willing to leave, if you wanted to leave by yourself … I can help you, too. At that time, I will arrange for people to take care of you until you reach adulthood. Then, if you want to dress up as a woman, I can also work with you in the business. If you don't want to marry, then don't. If you want to adopt a child, then adopt. No matter what you want to do, I will support you and I will help you. "

Su Xinyu was stunned. You... Why is this happening? " She had originally thought that since Wen Ling had not finished repaying him for saving his life, even if he helped his, it would be to repay the debt of gratitude. However, this was not the way to repay someone's gratitude. As a result, the moment Wen Ling finished speaking, she was stupefied.

Shangguan Lin laughed: "It's probably because I want to be free myself, and do what I want to do, but it's impossible to achieve it in all of eternity. So I hope you can do what you want to do and live the life you want to live. It's also good to see you do what you want. "

Su Xinyu felt her heart ache. She could not be clearer about the sadness in Shangguan Lin's smile. Ling Ge, you actually can do it too. "

"Abandoning wealth and status and leaving?" Shangguan Lin laughed bitterly. No way. You will know in the future. "But don't worry, I'll definitely do what I promised you." If he wasn't a prince, even if he was the son of a prince, he would abandon everything and leave. However, he was the Emperor's son, and would be the Emperor's younger brother in the future. Whoever inherited the throne. Either he would die, or he would stay in the capital forever and not let the new emperor suspect him. To him, freedom was even more extravagant than it was to Xinyu.

At this moment, Su Xinyu really wanted to ask Wen Ling what his identity was. But she resisted. If it could be said that Wen Ling would not hide it, then since he did not say it, it was him who did not wish to know. "I believe that there is nothing in this world that cannot be solved. If I can't do it now, I will definitely be able to solve it in the future."

Shangguan Lin laughed, "That's right. I hope so in the future. "When the time comes, I'll go and rely on you."

Su Xinyu smiled bitterly: "I can't abandon my mother. She's too soft, if she doesn't leave with me. It doesn't matter if my father is or not, life won't be easy. I have to protect her. "

Shangguan Lin sighed, "I hope everything goes well for you. That's right. Just wait a moment. " After saying that, Shangguan Lin got up and ran towards the study room. He would arrive very soon with a small box in his hand. There are three signals here. If you are in danger, or if you need my help, just crush this white area behind you and it will explode into smithereens. My people will naturally see it. "

Su Xinyu took the box, opened it once, looked at it, and closed it. Thank you, Ling Ge. "

Shangguan Lin shook his head: "No need to thank me. "Even though our ages are quite different, I still treat you as a close friend."

Su Xinyu thought to herself, I'm already more than ten years older than you in terms of mental age, and I can even treat you as a friend. If you have the chance to cooperate in the future, I guarantee that you will make a lot of money! "

Shangguan Lin laughed: "Sure. I'm waiting for this day. Go back and tell your mother. I believe that you will always be the one to feel the most pain in her heart. "
