Chapter 897: A Cunning Mind

　　Su Shenfan snorted. “Who do you think I am? I’m a businessman, and trust is the most important. Su Lian, stop trying to help outsiders.”

　　Bu Yaolian shook her head. “I’m just the messenger. Shao Zun, I’ll support your decision, whatever it is. I just want what’s best for you.”

　　Su Shenfan narrowed his eyes. What did Gu Bailu mean?

　　She could’ve asked Prince Zi to talk to him, but had gotten Su Lian to do so instead.

　　Was she trying to tell him that Su Lian was his from now on, and Gu Bailu wouldn’t use her anymore?

　　“If you want what’s good for me, I want her to return my Sky Splitting Mirror to me. Aren’t you sisters?” Su Shenfan sneered.

　　Bu Yaolian was stunned. She hadn’t expected him to say that.

　　Actually, Su Shenfan and Xiao Jingyun both knew who had stolen the things from the underground palace.

　　However, they couldn’t find any evidence or dirt to use on them, so they could only detain her in the palace.

　　If Bu Yaolian denied it, that would mean she and Gu Bailu weren’t close. Gu Bailu had stolen something, but hadn’t told this person, who was on her side.

　　She was just using Bu Yaolian.

　　Su Shenfan would probably look down on Bu Yaolian.

　　But what should she say?

　　Gu Bailu wouldn’t return the Sky Splitting Mirror now. It still had use to her.

　　Bu Yaolian gritted her teeth. “Well… Actually… I sounded her out yesterday. Princess Zi said that she only wanted to borrow the Sky Splitting Mirror, and would return it to Shao Zun after she was done with it. I tried my best…”

　　Princess Zi told me about it, and I was thinking of you when I asked her to return it, but she refused.

　　And even if she doesn’t return it now, she will in the future.

　　Su Shenfan: “Heh…”

　　Bu Yaolian looked at him in confusion. What did that mean?

　　In any case, she had already told him the truth.

　　“If you admit this, aren’t you afraid that they won’t be able to leave the imperial palace?” Su Shenfan didn’t expect her to admit it.

　　She was indeed stupid.

　　“Ah… Shao Zun, what are you talking about? What did I admit? I belong to you.”

　　Su Shenfan wanted to strangle her.

　　Yes, she was his woman, and she was so loyal to him.

　　So what was the point of her admitting it? It couldn’t be used as a testimony at all.

　　Even if he brought her to directly confront Prince and Princess Zi, it would be no use.

　　Su Shenfan said again, “Heh…”

　　This stupid woman in fact had a cunning heart.

　　“Shao Zun, you must be exhausted after last night. Look, there are green shadows under your eyes. Go get some sleep. Don’t tire yourself out over this.” Bu Yaolian continued to care for him.

　　Su Shenfan glanced at her in disdain. “Why do you keep emphasizing that I’m tired from last night? However tired I am, can it be as exhausting as playing with you?”

　　“Hehe… No matter how good I am, I’m only one person.”

　　There were three of them.

　　If they played with him together, wouldn’t he be constantly floating on air, with no sense of time passing?

　　Especially since Shao Zun’s demands in that respect were so high.

　　“You don’t have to worry about me. I can take it no matter how tired I am.” Su Shenfan stood up. “Rest well now that your period is here.”

　　Su Shenfan left after saying that.

　　Bu Yaolian pouted.

　　Su Shenfan didn’t come back after he left. She heard that he was resting with the Three Golden Flowers.

　　Bu Yaolian was on her period and her body was sore, so she stayed in her room.

　　Instead, she saw the three sisters from the window.
