Chapter 2342: Something's Definitely Not Right with These Two

Shu Yu smiled and replied, "No, we have other matters to attend to."

"County Princess, are you here in the southwest for some business?" Kang Shuxian asked, then seemed to have an insight and said, "Is it about the letter we sent to Miss Qiao Rou before the New Year? So there's a black... I mean, someone here as well?"

Shu Yu's eyes flickered when she heard Kang Shuxian bring up the letter, but she shook her head and said, "No, we came here to find my master. It's just a coincidence."

"I see." Kang Shuxian nodded.

Before she could say more, He Fang had already walked over to them.

She hurriedly greeted Shu Yu with a bow, "Greetings, County Princess. I didn't expect to see County Princess here."

Shu Yu nodded and replied, "You all look well."

He Fang nodded repeatedly, "We owe our well-being to County Princess. By the way, we live nearby. County Princess, would you like to visit our home? Our sisters would be thrilled to see County Princess."

Before Shu Yu could respond, Kang Shuxian said, "County Princess has other matters to attend to. We shouldn't disturb her."

He Fang furrowed her brows, "But since County Princess is already here, and she's our benefactor, it wouldn't be right not to offer her some hospitality."

"But these local products won't be of much use. County Princess has surely had them before."

The three of them discussed back and forth, and Shu Yu couldn't help but smile. After listening for a while, she finally spoke, "Thank you for your kind intentions, but I really must leave now. Perhaps we'll meet again in the future."

Kang Shuxian reached into her pocket and took out a purse, "County Princess, since you have other matters, we won't detain you. However, we will never forget County Princess's kindness. I don't have much on me, but I handmade this purse. Please accept it."

Shu Yu accepted the purse and said, "Thank you."

He Fang felt a bit embarrassed, "County Princess, I don't have anything with me... but if there's anywhere County Princess needs help, please don't hesitate to ask. As Kang Shuxian mentioned, we've been in Qingxuan County for a year now. We might have seen something that can assist County Princess. Feel free to tell us."

Kang Shuxian brightened up and nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, yes."

However, Shu Yu shook her head, "No need. My master left me an address, so instead of searching blindly, I'll wait for her to return."

"But..."

Shu Yu waved her hand, "Let's leave it at that. Goodbye."

She immediately got back into the carriage. Although He Fang wanted to say something more, Kang Shuxian, who was beside her, had already waved and bid her farewell, "Safe travels, County Princess. If you have the chance to come back, we will definitely welcome you warmly."

Shu Yu nodded and closed the curtain of the carriage. They continued their journey, leaving Kang Shuxian and He Fang watching from a distance.

Shu Yu handed the purse she received to Zhao Xi, who smelled it and shook his head, "It seems fine, but I'd still advise against carrying it on you."

The appearance of those two individuals was just too suspicious and coincidental. While they couldn't be sure if both of them were problematic, there was definitely something off about one of them.

The three of them didn't discuss this matter further inside the carriage; instead, they opened the suitcase to allow Wei Qin to breathe.
