“Moving with crops?”
“If the crops can be stored for a long time like sugar-coated peanuts, it’s possible. In my judgment, they didn’t seem to stay in one place for a long time, like the people who settle down.”
“How do you know that?”
“Let’s call it a merchant’s instinct. Besides that, there is no other way to explain.”
“Do you know their names?”
Ian felt as if he had committed a crime and was undergoing an interrogation. But in front of aristocrats like them, a mere merchant’s feelings were worse than insects.
“They said Rudina. But I don’t know the name of the other person.”
Ian deliberately did not mention Daelen’s name, knowing that Princess Stella was using the fake name Rudina.
It was delightful and satisfying to see the nobles, who couldn’t find the sugar-coated peanut cultivators they were desperately looking for, even with them right in front of their eyes.
“Rudina. Is there a chance they will come to Conpayo again?”
“I don’t know. What’s important is that I’ve bought all the sugar-coated peanuts they cultivated, so there is no other place for them to sell.”
“Do you happen to have more?”
With the question, all the gazes in the meeting room focused on Ian. Ian enjoyed the attention for a moment, maintaining silence before slowly opening his mouth.
“I have…”
“There is nothing left now.”
The tense air suddenly became loose as if the wind had escaped, and sighs of disappointment emanated from the disappointed nobles here and there.
“Still, there is hope. If we investigate the impression of the woman called ‘Rudina’ and inquire, we can quickly find her. Ian must have grasped their appearance since he traded with them. Isn’t that right?”
A relatively young-looking noble among those sitting down spoke as if unwilling to give up hope. The final question was directed at Ian.
Ian became slightly curious. Will they be able to find Princess Stella right in front of them, or will they be captured by severe prejudice and arrogance, making it impossible to find her?
“Yes, absolutely.”
As Ian answered confidently, the face of the noble who had asked the question brightened. It seemed as if they had finally found a solution.
Kai watched the conversation between the nobles and Ian Blake, feeling that he was missing something very important.
‘What is it? What am I missing?’
However, no matter how much he contemplated, it felt elusive, slipping through his fingers like smoke. It was a similar feeling to when you dreamt a nightmare, and the contents of the dream couldn’t be remembered afterward.
“What does this woman Rudina look like?”
The Emperor, who had not uttered a word throughout the meeting, asked the first question.
Ian, who was secretly enjoying manipulating the nobles as if they were in the palm of his hand, felt a chill down his spine at the sudden voice of the Emperor.
There was no way he would actually do it, but if he were to throw even a tiny clue, he felt as though he would swiftly collect it and rush straight to Princess Stella.
“Isn’t the Emperor asking a question? Why are you keeping your mouth shut!”
As Ian kept his mouth shut, only looking at the Emperor, the nobles around him scolded him heatedly. Only then did Ian realize that he had dared to look directly at the Emperor’s face. In a hurry, he quickly bowed his head.
“I didn’t think His Majesty would ask a question directly, so I was momentarily surprised and made a mistake. Please forgive me.”
“What does she look like?”
The Emperor, seemingly uninterested in any excuses, repeated the same question in a heavy tone.
Ian was in deep thought. Until a moment ago, he had thought of describing Stella’s appearance exactly as it was, with the intention of mocking the nobles. However, for some reason, he felt that it was absolutely not the right thing to do in front of the Emperor.
But on the other hand, he was engulfed in fear that any bit of falsehood might lead to an immediate and dire consequence.
In the end, Ian chose his life over amusement. No matter how much interest he had in Princess Stella, he wasn’t willing to stake his life on it. At least not yet.
“She has a slender body, fair skin, light blonde hair, and eyes with a mysterious color.”
“A mysterious color?”
“Yes, her eyes were a greenish-brown color mixed with brown.”
From Ian’s description, she seemed to be a great beauty. A farmer’s wife with blonde hair, fair skin, and greenish-brown eyes would catch anyone’s eye wherever she went. Perhaps that’s why she couldn’t stay in one place and roamed around.
The nobles sitting there began to unfold wings of imagination about the mysterious woman. By this point, they were more curious about the woman named Rudina than the sugar peanuts.
As the nobles chattered about the appearance they heard from Ian, Kai became extremely perplexed by the vivid face that came to his mind.
It was clear that the person Ian Blake was talking about was Stella.
He knew she worked in the garden, and he knew the crops she grew there were extraordinary.

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
