The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities

Chapter 90: Chapter 90: Paying Respects

After this incident, the emotional bond between the mother and daughter warmed once again, and Su Yaogeng decided to stay overnight, sleeping alongside Han Jing.

Poor Su Xingyan had sent people to wait for Han Jing, enduring the cold wind all night without seeing Han Jing appear, nor even any of the little girls by her side.

Having stayed up most of the night waiting for news, Su Xingyan finally received a report from his subordinates, and in frustration, he smashed the cup in his hand.

Does this woman even have a heart? Could such news not lure her out? Even if she suspects the other party has ulterior motives, she should at least send someone out to take a look! That way, he could have a breakthrough, but instead, the paper ball seemed to sink into the sea, with no news at all.

Either Han Jing didn’t see the paper ball, or this woman is heartless, or perhaps she simply has no heart at all! Otherwise, how could she remain indifferent?

Su Xingyan was so angry that he had a headache, and he couldn’t sleep the entire night, with dark circles under his eyes the next day.

This time he failed, and he has to think of another way, but with someone as skilled as Su Yaogeng around, it’s really hard to devise a plan to trick Han Jing into Liangshan Snow Forest!

The third day was the start of the hunt, while the second day was meant for a gathering, a time for relaxation.

Early in the morning, Su Xingyan, with dark circles under his eyes, went to greet the Emperor, who was surprised: ”What happened? Did Yan’er not sleep well last night?”

”Thank you, Father, for your concern. I am fine,” Su Xingyan replied, glancing at Su Yaogeng and Han Jing who were walking to the door, just feeling an ache in his molars. He certainly couldn’t say that he had spent the entire night pondering how to deal with Han Jing!

”Greetings to Brother.” ”Greetings to the Emperor.” Su Yaogeng and Han Jing saluted the Emperor.

It had been some time since the Emperor last saw Han Jing, and now she seemed to be quite different from before.

The previous Han Jing, though headstrong, was always somewhat insecure in front of others, rarely attending palace banquets, and seldom accompanying Su Yaogeng to stroll around the palace. Even when she appeared, she would use her hair to cover her face or lower her head slightly. But today, Han Jing calmly followed beside Su Yaogeng, her gaze clear, seemingly not caring about anyone’s opinion. It gave an inexplicable comfortable feeling, causing people to inadvertently ignore her appearance.

The Emperor couldn’t help but feel somewhat satisfied, seeing a bit of the demeanor Zheng’er had in those years.

Zheng’er’s years of attentive upbringing didn’t go to waste. However, he also did not understand why, knowing she’s not going to have children in this life and would one day adopt a child in the future, she didn’t choose to raise the Marquis Qing’an’s child. Why not adopt a normal child rather than one like Han Jing, who has flaws, and who knows who it brings suffering to?

The Emperor kindly beckoned to Han Jing, ”Come, Jing’er, it’s been a long time since you greeted your uncle, come over and let uncle see if you’ve grown taller!”

Han Jing initially just followed Su Yaogeng to be a bystander, not expecting the Emperor to call her.

But Han Jing was always fearless, so she walked over straightforwardly.

She looked up at the Emperor, somewhat surprised. This Emperor seemed to be a very gentle and kind person, though of course, this could just be on the surface, but at least he didn’t give off an annoying feeling. Han Jing thought, since he could have a son like Su Xingyan, the father couldn’t be much better!
