Want some?\" Xingxing mumbled unclearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin turned her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red fruit glistened invitingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She reached out and took one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After popping it into her mouth, she casually asked, \"How much longer until we arrive?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xingxing shook her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Receiving no reply, she lifted the curtain and asked the driver, \"My lady is asking you a question.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The driver, looking exasperated, said, \"I don’t know either.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xingxing, \"....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin, \"....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the curtain, Su Jin saw Xie Jingchen sitting straight on his horse, like an ancient sword embedded atop a mountain, brimming with poised elegance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xingxing let the curtain fall, cutting off Su Jin’s view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xingxing came over to continue munching on sour fruit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quite satisfactorily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin teased her, \"Aren’t you worried we might get sold off?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sold us?\" Xingxing looked bewildered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss, don’t worry, no one would buy us,\" Xingxing said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin, \"....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The driver, \"....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin raised a hand to her forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xingxing saw this and said, \"When my lady wanted to go down the mountain before, Madam always used that to scare her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Eldest Young Master assured Madam that with a temper like hers, they’d have to offer a high price to sell her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Young Master has no money, and the driver has even less,\" Xingxing said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The driver’s mouth twitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not denying that the maid had a point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone as fierce as the Eldest Young Madam, with a domineering father like the Marquis Dongxiang, anyone aware of her status wouldn’t dare to risk taking her far away to sell her without an enticing price.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The driver, lost in thought, didn’t notice that the leading Xie Jingchen had stopped ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He nearly crashed into him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hurriedly pulled the reins, feeling a lingering fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xingxing lifted the curtain, exclaiming, \"Miss, this place is beautiful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She jumped out of the carriage directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Jingchen dismounted and helped Su Jin down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, it was a beautiful place with mountains and rivers, few people, and breathtaking scenery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking from afar, the mountains were covered in lush pine and bamboo, swaying in waves of emerald green.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The water was very green.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Green like a flawless piece of jade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rays of sunlight pierced through the clouds, dancing on the water’s surface, reflecting with the mountains, like a celestial realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s as beautiful as our Qingyun Mountain,\" Xingxing said gleefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A long wooden bridge spanned the river, with the current roaring below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walking on the bridge, the wind blew in, fresh and elegant, peaceful and quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin loved it here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such beauty cleared away troubles, opening one’s heart and mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her brows showed a hint of the beauty of spring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin admired the scenery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Jingchen admired her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mountains were beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The water was beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was even more beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Jingchen’s face darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin wandered around and sat down on the bridge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took off her shoes and socks, exposing her fair feet, soaking them in the water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was utterly refreshing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She propped herself on the bridge and tilted her head slightly to gaze at the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A shadow loomed over her—it was the face of Xie Jingchen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin furrowed her brows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stand a bit to the side,\" Su Jin said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Put your shoes and socks back on,\" Xie Jingchen said, a flicker of fire in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s wrong with soaking my feet?\" Su Jin said indifferently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mind your image!\" Xie Jingchen said through gritted teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin let out a chuckle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What image does a bandit need?\" Su Jin asked with a calm smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Besides, there’s no one else here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Xie Jingchen’s face darkened as if ready to pull her up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin said, \"I’ve already taken off my shoes and socks, let me soak a little longer.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xingxing, sitting nearby, said, \"Master, my lady used to soak her feet like this all the time on Qingyun Mountain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Jingchen’s face turned three shades darker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Heir of Duke Chong and a few companions came to enjoy the view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thirsty, they drank from the river, finding it deliciously sweet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After drinking and wiping the water off their mouths, one of them said, \"There’s someone on the bridge.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It should be the Heir of Prince Yun and Princess Fu Yun,\" another said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s go take a look.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From afar, they saw the feet of Su Jin and Xingxing splashing in the water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their fair skin was dazzling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Heir of Duke Chong and his companions’ faces went dark instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then they saw it was Xie Jingchen and Su Jin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their faces turned pitch black.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were drinking water under the bridge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While they soaked their feet above!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The servant, seeing this, shouted angrily, \"My young master is drinking water below, how can you wash your feet above!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he finished speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The servant got a heavy blow on the forehead with a folded fan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His head was left dazed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Heir of Duke Chong almost exploded with anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such an embarrassing situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t cover it up fast enough, and here it was being exposed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is drinking foot-soaked water something to brag about?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially when it’s the foot-washing water of bandits from Qingyun Mountain!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin stood up from the water, her skirt falling to cover her feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A simple foot soak and running into such a mood-spoiler.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This place was lovely, but the timing was poor,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Heir of Duke Chong clenched his folded fan tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of how Su Chong had schemed against him, losing Duke Chong’s Mansion, becoming the laughingstock of the Capital City, anger swelled in his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Su Jin, a wicked thought crossed his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Running into me today is your bad luck!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He left this comment, stomped on the wooden bridge, and charged forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Jingchen sidestepped, lifted a foot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a splash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Heir of Duke Chong was kicked into the water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Water splashed everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The splashing water reflected the sunlight, dazzling brightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The few standing with their arms crossed, ready to watch the show, were dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just one move, and he was defeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They looked at each other, incredulous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t the eldest young master of Duke Zhen poisoned, unable to fight?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But recalling that on the street, Xie Jingchen had crossed hands with Su Chong, he wasn’t unable to fight; he just couldn’t go a few rounds without his blood and energy surging, causing the poison within to erupt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Heir of Duke Chong, falling into the water, struggled a few times before standing up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All of you, attack at once!\" the Heir of Duke Chong said viciously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you kill him, it’s on me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice carried a sinister tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three men clenched their fists and charged at Xie Jingchen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bridge was narrow, so they charged in single file.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And were kicked into the water in single file.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Jingchen didn’t even use his hands; a single foot sent them off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Firstly, he was quick, and they underestimated him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In their minds, they hadn’t taken Xie Jingchen seriously; he was just a wretched patient who could succumb to poison at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing on the bridge, watching the Heir of Duke Chong and his companions in the water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xingxing stood with hands on her hips, threw back the words they had said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Running into us, today is your bad luck!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1342,"2026-06-06T02:19:46.083Z",1,"novelbin.me","a36f4e5b98d47e60ccf62eec56b18a9ec1f3a5048a9fcb1cc1f95cabb5692c7d","after-transmigration-i-snag-a-stunning-bigwig-as-chapter-255","after-transmigration-i-snag-a-stunning-bigwig-as-chapter-223",1103,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fafter-transmigration-i-snag-a-stunning-bigwig-as-cover.jpg"]
