"A bet?" Jiang Fuyue raised her eyebrows, "What are you betting on?"

Shen Chuan thought for a while, and the smile in his eyes deepened: "I bet that old lady won't come. If she really doesn't come, how about coming to my place for dinner tonight?"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the courtyard looked wary.

Why did he ask Jiang Fuyue to come to his place so late at night?

Seeing this, Shen Chuan also knew that they had misunderstood, so he explained: "Bai Yujing's cooking skills are very good. I heard that you only had some tea and no dinner last time, so I thought I would let you try it. "

Hearing this, Jiang Fuyue breathed a sigh of relief: "But you clearly won, but you still have to send someone to ask me to come over for dinner. What's the point of this?"

"There may not always be a reason for doing things," said Shen Chuan. "If I have to find a reason... it's probably because I like it."

Jiang Fuyue looked at him for a while, then nodded: "Okay, then if I win..."

Jiang Fuyue suddenly felt distressed.

The situation today is a bit strange.

Those who win will have to contribute money and effort. If you can pass on your identity, you must have everything.

Even if he doesn't have something, he will definitely use his means to get it.

In this case, it seems that she has nothing to give.

"Then let's pay it first," Shen Chuan took over the words on his own, "If you win, no matter what you ask me to do in the future, I will do my best."

After saying that, Shen Chuan stood up and left.

Jiang Fuyue blinked and didn't recover for a long time.

Why is this bet so wrong?

"Is this Mr. Shen actually a kind person?" Jingzhe on the side asked in confusion, "He lost, he owes a favor, he won, and he still wants to treat him to dinner?"

Guyu also wondered: "Could it be that the people in the capital misunderstood Master Shen?"

Jingzhe thought about it carefully and felt that the possibility was not high.

If there is really a misunderstanding, just one or two misunderstandings, how can the whole capital misunderstand it together?

Then...there is only one possibility left.

Jingzhe Guyu looked at each other, then looked at Jiang Fuyue: "Girl..."

Jiang Fuyue lowered her eyebrows and said nothing.

Jingzhe Guyu looked at each other again, shook his head helplessly, and said nothing more.

In that compartment, Shen Chuan left Tianshui Lane and took Wei Ze and Wei Ming directly to the Anyuan Hou Mansion.

The two of them still didn't know what happened in the house just now, so they couldn't help but wonder on the way: "Master, why are we going to the Anyuan Marquis' Mansion?"

Shen Chuan glanced at him and said: "Old Madam's dust-cleaning banquet today is for Fu Yue. Fu Yue doesn't plan to go. Old Madam feels she has lost face, so naturally there will be a scene."

Wei Ze couldn't help but sigh: "Then I can just come over and handle it myself. Why do you need to make a trip?"

As soon as he said these words, Shen Chuan turned to glance at him again.

Thinking of the letter he had impulsively sent, which made Shen Chuan work sleepless for several days and nights, Wei Ze couldn't help but shrink his neck and didn't dare to say more.

Wei Ming on the side shook his head helplessly.

The three masters and servants quickly arrived at Anyuanhou Mansion.

Just as Bai Lu said, the road in front of the door was crowded with carriages, so the master and servant simply got off their horses and walked over.

"Young Master, I still don't understand. Don't worry about Wei Ze. It's the same as asking your subordinates to come over. Why go there in person?" Wei Ming said, "This old lady is hosting a banquet, and she must have invited women. You Such an identity..."

Shen Chuan didn't even attend official gatherings, but now he came to attend women's gatherings. If word spread, there's a high chance that people will laugh at him behind his back.

Shen Chuan didn't speak, and his steps didn't stop. He obviously didn't care.

The emperor's imperial edict and reward were favors, but they also pushed Jiang Fuyue to the forefront.

Especially for Jiang Fuyue, who is a woman and does not enter the court, it will do more harm than good.

If it weren't for the purpose of getting Chen Huiyin out, Jiang Fuyue had no intention of exposing herself to others.

What's more, Jiang Fuyue doesn't like to be liked by others. Instead of making things difficult for her in the future, it would be better for him to come over today and tell those people to be careful.

By the way...some things just happened to be done together.

Wei Ming couldn't help but sigh: "Sir, why are you doing this?"

Even before he got the person, he was already rushing to do things for him.

Shen Chuan glanced at him: "You don't even have anyone you like, so of course you don't understand."

There was an obvious dislike in his tone.

Wei Ze on the side burst into laughter.

Wei Ming couldn't help but lose his face: "Sir, it's boring for you to say that."

While talking, the master and servants had already arrived in front of the Hou Mansion.

The concierge didn't dare to stop him, and didn't even dare to go and inform him first. He just stood there blankly and watched the two people go in.

It was now time to eat. Although everyone had taken their seats, their minds were not on the food. Instead, they stretched their necks to look in the direction of the door.

The old lady was sitting in the front seat with a very ugly expression on her face.

Just when everyone was waiting eagerly, someone finally came in.

But he is a man.

The man's steps were steady as he walked, with a slight sense of oppression.

When everyone saw the man's appearance clearly, they couldn't help but exclaimed and quickly put down the chopsticks in their hands.

"It's Master Shen!"

"Why did Mr. Shen come here suddenly?"

While everyone was talking, Shen Chuan had already walked up to the old lady.

He stood not far away from the old lady and said, "Fuyue is feeling unwell today and can't come. I came here specially to tell you."

The old lady snorted coldly and said, "She obviously broke her promise first. Why, why can't you even come over and explain to me in person?"

"Besides, what's your relationship with her? How come it's your turn to apologize for her?"

The old lady said this without mercy, and everyone gasped.

But Shen Chuan didn't look angry at all: "Since I'm here, it's my turn."

The moment Shen Chuan showed up, Jiang Fuyao's expression turned ferocious.

This is the person!

This is the person who kept her mother in jail in the palace without even a hint of news coming out!

Although her gaze was intense and filled with terrifying resentment, Shen Chuan's gaze still only glanced across her face without even a moment's pause.

Shen Chuan's eyes slowly swept across the field, and then he spoke slowly: "I'm here today, and there is one more thing I want to tell you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the ladies and girls in the room stood up one after another.

"Although Miss Jiang has received an imperial edict and a reward from His Majesty, she has always liked peace and quiet. I hope you will not send people to block the entrance of Tianshui Lane as you did before, causing trouble to others."

"Miss Jiang's worries are my worries. My temper has never been very good, so I hope you can forgive me and be tolerant."

"Her troubles are your troubles!" A shout suddenly sounded, "There really is something fishy between you two!"
