The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1307

Chapter 1307: 636 Jiaojiao came.

Gu Jiao took a seat in Su Xue’s carriage.

Su Xue’s coachman, upon noticing his young mistress bring an unfamiliar man onto the carriage, couldn’t help but whisper a reminder, "Miss, this isn’t proper, is it? Men and women should not touch hands when giving or receiving objects. If the master and madam find out, they will punish you."

Su Xue huffed coldly, "If you don’t tell and I don’t tell, how would my parents know? Or are you planning to betray me, sneak off to inform on me to my parents? I warn you! If you dare stab me in the back, I’ll make sure you can’t stay in the Su Residence!"

The coachman quickly responded, "I wouldn’t dare, I wouldn’t dare. Miss, rest assured, I will keep my lips sealed."

"That’s more like it." Su Xue was somewhat satisfied as she raised an eyebrow, looked at the closed curtains, and smiled knowingly before lifting her skirt and stepping into the carriage.

She sat down on the long bench beside Gu Jiao, dressed in a pink and white waist-skimming Luo skirt, her figure graceful, her slender waist a handful, her eyes sparkling behind a veil despite being covered, exceedingly beautiful.

Indeed, by the looks of Mu Qingchen, one could guess that Su Xue’s own appearance would not be lacking.

However, Gu Jiao was not a true man after all and did not lust after Su Xue’s beauty.

Her gaze was clear, without a hint of disrespect, and Su Xue’s cheeks grew even redder.

A truly rare gentleman, to share a room with her without a trace of improper thoughts arising.

The carriage traveled along the spacious streets, with an endless stream of pedestrians beside them, and the sound of hawkers overlapping, presenting a bustling scene of Shengdu.

"Miss Su, could we speed up a bit?" Gu Jiao asked.

Walking too slowly, and soon the sky would be dim; she was afraid she wouldn’t make it out of the city in time.

Yet Su Xue wished she could go even slower, but since Xiao Liulang had so requested, she could but comply, "Oh, Afu, a little faster, please."

"Yes, Miss!"

The coachman, known as Afu, drove the horses into a swift gallop with a single crack of his whip.

Su Xue’s face turned dark, she meant for you to speed up a bit, not this much! She’ll deduct from your monthly pay for this!

The Canglan Women’s Academy was located in the southeast of Shengdu’s inner city, one of the four prime areas, and the only women’s academy in Shengdu.

It wasn’t that there were no female students elsewhere, but they were mostly small private schools that had separate classes for women.

Su Xue lifted the curtain and exclaimed in surprise, "Father!"

Coming head-on was a carriage from the Su Residence that almost stopped simultaneously with Su Xue’s, and the person inside the carriage lifted the curtain to reveal a stern and handsome middle-aged face.

It was Su Xue and Mu Qingchen’s father, Su Yuan, styled Rongchuan.

His piercing gaze swept past the guilty coachman and Su Xue. Su Xue’s heart skipped a beat, and she quickly stepped out of the carriage, tightly closing the curtain behind her, and stood on the outer step of the carriage, facing Su Yuan, she said, "Father, what a coincidence! Weren’t you going out of town on business with my fourth brother? You’ve returned so soon? Where is fourth brother? Is he in your carriage?"

Su Yuan did not answer Su Xue’s questions, and indeed, there was no need to answer. If Qingchen were in the carriage, he would have already come out to help Su Xue alleviate the awkward situation.

Su Yuan’s eyes were fixed on the curtain behind Su Xue.

Su Xue subtly shifted her position, attempting to use her body to cover the curtain.

That was truly a case of "protesting too much."

"Who is in there?" Su Yuan asked sternly.

"No, there’s no one," Su Xue hurriedly waved her hands.
