Chapter 256 Why does she look so much like Lan Xing?

With the Empress's arrival, Consort Zhang dared not touch Chu Yan for the time being.

Chu Yan and Che Yi made a point of thanking the Empress before leaving the palace.

“Let’s go find Luo’er now. I’m still a little uneasy. Consort Zhang was suppressed by the Empress today, and she might be quiet for a few days, but she will definitely come after me again after a while.”

After leaving the palace gates, Chu Yan said with concern.

"Um."

Che Yi nodded, sharing the same view as Chu Yan on this point.

The two quickly took a carriage to the Crown Prince's residence, but Su Liluo was not there; instead, she went to inspect her own restaurant.

So they went to a restaurant instead.

*

At noon, the streets were bustling with people, like a gentle river, with a constant stream of people coming and going in front of the restaurants.

After reviewing the restaurant's accounts for the past month from the second floor, Su Liluo was in a very good mood. Ever since she removed all of Jiang Qinshu's confidants, the restaurant had made her a fortune.

Today, it is one of the most profitable of her many businesses.

"The sun is so strong outside, it must be noon. Let's have our meal at this restaurant today!"

Su Liluo walked to the door, looked up at the blazing sun high in the sky, and decided to stay for a meal today.

"I heard that some dishes at this restaurant have been selling particularly well lately. Your Highness, shall we try them later?"

When Ranmei heard Su Liluo say that she wanted to stay for a meal, she couldn't help but be delighted.

The Crown Princess treated them very well, which made them less timid in her presence, and sometimes they would even dare to ask her about things they liked.

"Okay, then you guys can have a separate table and order yourselves later."

Su Liluo was in a good mood and said with a smile.

Today she went out with two maids and two servants, which was just enough for them to sit at one table.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Ranmei and the others bowed respectfully in gratitude.

Soon after, they set up two tables in the hall.

Su Liluo sat alone by the window, sipping tea and enjoying the view of the street.

She reflected on the events of the past year and pondered what she should do next.

Now, the second branch of the Su family has been rendered powerless by her. Jiang Qinshu is dead, and although Su Wanshi is alive, her current situation is very bad.

Of course, she wouldn't let Su Wanshi go, but she had too many enemies to deal with right now, so she could only wait for the right opportunity to deal with Su Wanshi.

Neither the King of Chu nor the King of Xiao were simple.

And Xinglan, whom she still hasn't found out, who exactly is behind him?

What is his relationship with his mother, Jiang Ruan?

Is the space that Qin Shuang and Yi Lan have been searching for the one they possess?

Until that mysterious person is found, Su Liluo feels that she will always live in a state of unknown fear.

Just as she was lost in thought, she suddenly noticed a pair of bright eyes looking at her in shock downstairs.

Who is this person?

Why that expression?

Su Liluo frowned slightly, wondering.

The man was a handsome middle-aged man, dressed in fine clothes, with a serious demeanor. He didn't seem like the kind of lecherous playboy, but the way he looked at Su Liluo was too intense.

It made her uncomfortable.

So Su Liluo turned her head away and stopped looking in that direction.

The man downstairs was utterly shocked. He hadn't even had time to react when he saw Su Liluo turn her face away.

How could that be?

Did he see it wrong?

Didn't they say Earth is dead?

Why did he seem to see the blue planet just now?

Gao Changhong stood frozen in place, a middle-aged man with a majestic and handsome appearance, his expression now resembling that of a child who had witnessed something strange.

He rubbed his dazed head. No, he had to figure this out!

So Gao Changhong strode into the restaurant and headed straight for the direction where he had just seen Su Liluo.

"Who...who are you?"

Gao Changhong quickly walked up to Su Liluo, looked at her in shock, and questioned her.

This time he looked closely and realized that the person in front of him did indeed look about 80% like his Blue Star, the only difference being their demeanor.

His blue-skinned temperament was more gentle and refined, while the woman before him had a more heroic air.

But this face is the one that looks most like Earth that he has seen in the past ten years.

"Who I am is none of your business. Isn't it inappropriate for this uncle to come up and speak to me so abruptly?"

Su Liluo frowned as she looked at Gao Changhong.

Although she didn't see the lewdness in Gao Changhong's eyes, being questioned like that still made her feel uncomfortable.

"I'm asking you who you are, what your name is, where you live, and who your parents are?"

Gao Changhong didn't care about Su Liluo's attitude. At this moment, he was slightly excited. He just wanted to know if the person in front of him had any connection with Blue Star.

Otherwise, why do they look so alike?

Looking at the stubborn look on the person in front of her, Su Liluo wondered if this person was sick.

Even though she had never met him before, he came over and questioned her like this. If he wasn't sick, then who sent him to do something?

Because of the increased number of assassinations and enemies she encountered, Su Liluo subconsciously began to think about conspiracies and schemes.

There are many people here now, and it wouldn't be good to get into an argument with him, so Su Liluo decided to ignore this strange middle-aged man.

She didn't answer his question, but instead got off her seat.

"Stop right there! You haven't answered my question yet! Guards, stop her and don't let her leave!"

Seeing that she was about to leave, Gao Changhong immediately ordered his men to stop Su Liluo.

"It seems something has happened to the Crown Princess!"

Just then, Chu Yan and Che Yi walked in through the door. Che Yi looked up and saw Su Liluo about to be surrounded.

"Che Yi, hurry and save Luo'er!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Yan quickly sent Che Yi to rescue Su Liluo.

"Okay! Then you wait for me down here!"

Che Yi nodded, then lightly leaped over the railing and flew up to the second floor.

"Your Highness, I'm here to help you!"

Che Yi flew to Su Liluo's side and said loudly.

"The Crown Princess? You're the Crown Princess?"

Upon hearing Che Yi's words, Gao Changhong's tone changed, and he asked in surprise.

"Now that you know who I am, why don't you tell your men to get out of the way!"

Su Liluo didn't bother to hide anything and said coldly.

Gao Changhong recalled what Su Wanshi had said: that her mother was killed by the Crown Princess, which meant that she was killed by this young girl in front of him.

But this Crown Princess looks to be only a teenager, and she looks so much like Lan Xing. Why would she want to kill Lan Xing?

For a moment, Gao Changhong felt that something was wrong.

Why did you kill Madam Su?

After hesitating for a while, Gao Changhong decided to ask for clarification first.

Madam Su?

Su Liluo subconsciously thought of Jiang Qinshu, who was an old friend of Jiang Qinshu.

So, was he stopping me because he wanted to avenge Jiang Qinshu?
