The three-day holiday flew by.

Jiang Zhixia spent three days snuggling with her large wolfhound, whom she hadn't seen for a long time. Of course, she didn't just stay at home; she also went out shopping several times.

So when Lu Jue was recalled by the military, he was carrying large and small bags with him.

Jiang Zhixia saw him off to the entrance of the military compound, then asked expectantly, "When is the next holiday?"

Looking into the princess's expectant yet reluctant eyes, Lu Jue's heart swelled with tenderness. "Starting next week, you'll have one day off a week. I'll tell the princess as soon as I confirm."

He looked down and tapped the personal terminal on his wrist.

This is a new gift the princess bought for him. Although he is still a slave, many restrictions have been lifted after he received the first-class merit.

He was no longer a slave without status, so wearing a quantum computer was only natural.

Jiang Zhixia nodded and watched him turn and walk inside.

The military headquarters gate slowly closed, and she turned a corner, flying towards the military council area.

She hadn't seen Su Chen for three days.

Lu Jue met Su Chen briefly on the day he returned, and then disappeared.

She initially thought he was busy with research, but when she messaged him to ask, she found out he was in the military council district.

She was terrified, thinking that Su Tongwei's affair had been exposed and that he had been imprisoned.

But Su Chen messaged her to say that it wasn't imprisonment, but rather that there was something very important to discuss, and the specifics would have to wait for the Crown Prince to make a decision.

She wanted to go and see, but Jiang Ting stopped her with a phone call.

On the screen, even the man's usually calm face showed obvious displeasure.

"Isn't Lu Jue enough for you to play with?"

"Su Chen's entry into the council district has nothing to do with Su Tongwei."

Jiang Zhixia blushed deeply.

That's a very ambiguous statement.

However, she was also puzzled as to why her older brother was detaining people in the military council area for no apparent reason.

She saw Lu Jue off today, so she has to come and ask him about it.

Upon entering the military council area, I was respectfully led inside by the guards.

After walking through several corridors, we finally stopped in front of a metal door.

The door opened, and Jiang Zhixia immediately saw the man standing in front of the control panel.

He had his back to her, his dark blue general's uniform outlining his broad shoulders and lean waist. His profile was cold and hard, his eyes lowered, as he looked at some data.

Jiang Zhixia silently exclaimed "Wow!" in her heart.

No matter how many times she sees it, she's always struck by how handsome Jiang Ting looks in his military uniform.

Jiang Ting turned his head to look at him.

The female stood at the doorway, her eyes sparkling as she stared at him, her admiration undisguised.

He frowned slightly.

Weren't you terrified of this outfit before?

Why do I think it looks good now?

He couldn't understand it, so he didn't ask any more questions. He turned off the control panel and turned to look at her.

"So you're in such a hurry to get them back?"

Jiang Zhixia: "..." Who told you to keep detaining people?

She didn't dare to say anything, just smiled and obediently sat down in the chair opposite him. "No, I'm just curious why you called Su Chen over, brother."

Jiang Ting raised his eyelids and uttered two words indifferently: "Pay back the debt."

Jiang Zhixia was taken aback: "...Huh?"

A moment later, she stared at the screen in front of her, completely shocked.

The entire virtual screen was densely covered with information about various medicines, from their names and ingredients to their efficacy and experimental data, each piece of information was crystal clear.

Besides normal therapeutic drugs, a significant portion also involves illegal and destructive drugs.

Most importantly, the records from the last two weeks.

An enhancement agent that boosts male aggression, an improved physical enhancement agent, and an inhibitor that reduces male manic behavior and stabilizes mental state—the effects are more than twice as good as what the military currently uses…

Jiang Zhixia opened her mouth into an "O" shape.

"This was all researched by Su Chen over the past two weeks?!"

Half a month!

Su Chen has been busy taking over the Su family's business and secretly dealing with Su Tongwei for the past two weeks, yet he still has time to research so many things?!

Bravo!

Jiang Ting put away the light screen, looked at her stunned expression, and said in a calm tone: "These drugs will have a lot of potential for use by the military. I brought him here to discuss long-term cooperation with the military."

He paused for a moment, then added quietly, "It's a way of making him pay for what he did. I'm helping him get rid of the crime of poisoning females."

Jiang Zhixia was completely dazed after hearing this.

Su Chen's fate was completely changed.

He wasn't disfigured or depressed. The Su family fell, but a new Su family belonging to Su Chen is being established. Now, it has been officially absorbed by the military and is no longer "controlled and incorporated by the royal family," but rather "cooperating" with them!

"Very good!"

Jiang Zhixia cheered excitedly.

Then I met my older brother's ambiguous gaze.

She shut her mouth awkwardly, gave him an embarrassed smile, and said, "Brother, thank you for giving him this opportunity."

Jiang Ting looked at her like this, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly.

He couldn't help himself when the female showed that obedient and docile expression.

I felt I could go even further and ask for something more.

He reached out and pulled the person over.

Jiang Zhixia had no chance to struggle and was speechless as he pulled her into his arms again.

The man's lips curled slightly as he looked down at her lips.

"He paid off his debt, what about yours?"

A cold, stern face approached.

Jiang Zhixia reacted quickly and covered his mouth.

Jiang Ting paused in his movements.

He lowered his eyes, and the temperature in his eyes quickly cooled.

What does that mean?

Once that wolf cub returned, all his efforts were in vain.

Jiang Zhixia noticed that her older brother's eyes had changed, so she quickly waved her hand and stammered.

"Big brother, could you... let me go hungry for a few days?"

Jiang Ting: "...?"

She tugged at her older brother's sleeve and explained in a soft voice, "Brother, actually, I have a spiritual body."

"But my spiritual body is a bit special. It can't be solidified. It's always inside me and I can't control it. I suspect that Su Chen's spiritual power showed signs of repair before, which is related to my spiritual body. I want him to feed my spiritual body once and see."

Now that she wasn't afraid Jiang Ting would switch sides and side with the female lead, she honestly confessed the matter.

What if they don't tell us? Little White Flower is almost stuffed by him and Lu Jue, and she's not showing any signs of hunger!

Jiang Ting was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly gave a faint smile.

The frost in his eyes seemed to melt away quietly by a spring breeze, revealing a rare tenderness in his hard features.

He did it.

The female took the initiative to speak and told him what she had been hiding.

Jiang Zhixia was captivated by that smile and was completely mesmerized.

The next second, the man leaned close to her ear, his voice low, husky, and lingering, as if rolling from his chest.

"Okay, go do it."

Jiang Zhixia was dizzy as he held her in his arms.

Jiang Ting suppressed the urge to release his spiritual power and held the person for a long time before finally letting go with satisfaction.

Jiang Zhixia jumped down from her older brother's arms, ready to go see Su Chen.

Then he was told that the project Su Chen was currently involved in was a military secret and he could not be seen by anyone for the time being.

Unable to find anyone, she had no choice but to turn a corner and head towards the main hall of the palace.

Go see your father and mother.

Whether it was due to blood ties or not, she felt an inexplicable sense of closeness to the Empress and His Majesty from the very first moment she saw them.

She had always lived in the shadow of being a "fake princess," and was always on tenterhooks every time they met, fearing that she would be exposed one day. Now that she knows she is a real princess, that feeling of guilt has completely disappeared, and she has even developed a sense of dependence on her.

She herself found it funny.

A person in their mid-twenties across two generations has actually started wanting to snuggle into their parents' arms.

Just as Jiang Zhixia was about to push open the door at the entrance of the main hall, she heard a smug voice come out.

"Sister, these past two days the princess has been spending all her time with that sinner, even openly taking him shopping. Lots of people have seen it, and it's all over the news..."

Jiang Xue's voice sounded worried, "Although the princess is young, her status is still there. If things continue like this, it won't be good for her reputation."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhixia got an erection.

The fist hardened.

This person talks badly about people behind their backs?!

Just as she was about to push the door open, she heard the Queen say casually.

"Hasn't my daughter always had a bad reputation?"

Jiang Zhixia: "...?"

No, Mother, you...

Jiang Xue was clearly taken aback, and chuckled dryly, "The princess was ignorant before, but isn't she much better now? Sister, you should keep a close eye on her and stop the princess from being talked about."

Jiang Lin clicked her tongue impatiently, "Xiaxia has such a fiancé. Her mental strength was damaged before the ceremony, and she just broke off the engagement. She's in a bad mood right now. Let her have her fun. Why bother with so much?"

Jiang Lin didn't care about that slave at all. Which noblewoman didn't have a large group of slaves around her? Her daughter only had one, and she still felt that wasn't enough for her.

Moreover, she had also seen the news online.

Although it's true that being intimate with a slave is not good, most people say that the daughter dotes on her beast husband and treats the slaves well, personally taking them shopping.

I've recently received several invitations from nobles who want to send their sons over to let their daughters see them, clearly eyeing the newly vacant position of the principal husband.

But she didn't say these words out loud. After all, it was a family matter. What was the point of talking to this unfamiliar younger sister?

Jiang Xue's lips twitched from the blatant protection.

He opened his mouth as if to say something, but the door was suddenly pushed open with a bang.

Jiang Zhixia stood at the door, tilted her chin up, and rolled her eyes at her fiercely.

"Lord Jiang Xue, speaking ill of others behind their backs will bring retribution."

Jiang Xue's smile froze for a moment, then quickly returned to its usual shape: "Your Highness is too kind. I was just concerned about you..."

"Who needs your concern?"

Jiang Zhixia was too lazy to waste words with her, so she went straight to the Queen and threw herself into her arms.

"Mother~"

The queen naturally embraced her, her voice instantly filled with laughter: "Why did you suddenly come without saying a word?"

Jiang Zhixia said in a muffled voice, "No, I just miss you, Mother. When are we going to the Aier Star Region?"

The queen looked down at her, her eyes gentle: "The day after tomorrow, what's wrong?"

Jiang Zhixia nodded, pondering in her mind.

There are two days left.

The Dark Street sent her a message yesterday, saying that some of their businesses require royal status to be laundered, and asked her to make a trip there in the next couple of days.

She was worried that there wouldn't be enough time, but now it's just right.

I'll finish getting things done in the next couple of days, and then head off on my trip the day after tomorrow. Perfect!
