Zhi Lingyang became even more embarrassed after hearing what she said.
"Since General Zhi cares so much about the Senior Madam, it would be better to let Senior Madam Zhi stay in Jianan City in the future and not accompany him on the battlefield. This time I happened to come to her rescue, but we may not have such good fortune next time."
Just when he was feeling awkward, Lin Caisang spoke again.
"Are you planning to leave Jianan City, Miss Lin?" Jin An’an turned to Lin Caisang and asked.
She doesn’t blame Zhi Lingyang, no matter what he did, no matter how much he overstepped the boundaries, because everything he did was for her.
However, after listening to Lin Caisang, she realized that Lin Caisang is preparing to leave Jianan City?
"I’ve been away from home for long enough now, it’s time to go back," Lin Caisang replied nonchalantly.
"Does Miss Lin have no plans to live in Jianan City?" Jin An’an asked again.
She thought that by now Lin Caisang, who was greatly regarded by the Elder Princess and was a friend to the Eldest Prince, and who also owned her own shop in Jianan City as well as vast farmland, should stay in the city.
What she did not expect was that Lin Caisang was planning to leave.
"Why should I stay in Jianan City?"
Lin Caisang asked her in return, staring at Jin An’an with probing eyes.
Jin An’an was always a quiet person in front of her, but today she talked more than usual, and every word she said was about Lin’s departure, which surprised her since even the knowledgeable Elder Princess did not ask about such things.
Jin An’an was stunned by Lin Caisang’s question. She touched her wound somewhat guiltily and looked towards her husband for support.
"Miss Lin, An’an meant no offense and didn’t intend to pry into your business," Zhi Lingyang immediately stepped in to explain for his wife.
Before he explained, things were okay. But after his explanation, it implied that Jin An’an’s previous questions were a bit too specific. It made both of them look even more awkward.
Lin Caisang simply nodded without expression.
"My trip to Jianan was originally triggered by the sickness of the Elder Princess. The other incidents such as the people I saved or the properties I acquired were incidental and not worth mentioning. Now that the Elder Princess is gradually recovering and given that my family must be missing me, it’s time for me to go home."
She was awarded thousands of acres of good farmland outside Jianan City by the Emperor, and obtained a Death Exemption Token, countless treasures and even two very profitable shops. She also received the attention of the usually indifferent Elder Princess.
Is Miss Lin sure that all of these are not worth mentioning?
If so, then what would be worth mentioning? There doesn’t seem to be anything else left, right?
"Hehe, Miss Lin makes a good point," he responded awkwardly, unable to articulate any other response.
After chatting casually with Zhi Lingyang and his wife for a while, it wasn’t until Lin Caisang started hinting for them to leave, that Zhi Lingyang and Jin An’an finally excused themselves.
"Miss Lin, rest assured about the affairs in Jianan City. Although I may lack authority, the people in Jianan City still give me some respect. They won’t cause you any trouble."
Only after the couple had left did the Elder Princess start speaking to Lin Caisang.
"Thank you very much for your kindness, Elder Princess," Lin Caisang replied, without any pretense.
"Princess, for the next six months, you should stick to a bland diet. Don’t eat anything too oily. If you want to eat fruit, it would be best to have Nanny Bai soak it first in hot water."
