"If I say I'm not afraid, then I'm not afraid"

Madam Guan, "There is still one more level to go."

"What?" Miss Sun asked

Madam Guan raised her eyebrows and said, "Your father!"

Sun Yun breathed a sigh of relief. "Father is not easy to deal with. I'll take care of it." Sun Yun patted his chest and promised.

"Okay, we plan to leave for the capital at noon tomorrow. Can you make it in time?"

"It's still in time." Sun Yun responded quickly, fearing that she would leave her behind.

"Okay, I've said everything I need to say. I also need to go back and prepare." After saying that, Gu Niannian stood up.

Gu and Li returned to Li's house. Li Jing took out the clothes he had just bought from the cloth bag and went to the well.

Gu Niannian was confused and asked, "What are you doing?"

"These are new clothes that have been touched by many people. They are not clean. Let me rinse them for you." Li Jing said with a smile.

"If you wash it now, while the sun is still strong, it will be dried in the evening." Li Jing added, fearing that Gu Niannian would worry that it wouldn't dry well.

……

Second day

Sun Yun appeared at the door of Li Jing's house in a carriage. Seeing a carriage parked nearby, she thought, "Teacher Gu is really early. He rushed over from the herbal medicine shop."

Gu Niannian, who was walking slowly at this time, was not anxious at all.

Sun Yun got out of the car and knocked on the door

The person who opened the door was not Gu Niannian. She also knew this person. He was Xie Feixing, the third son of the Xie family. He was the person whose name she heard women talk about the most when they were selling clothes in the garment shop.

Xie Feixing saw the little girl at the door. She had a round face and looked very young, but he didn't recognize her. He asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Sun Yun was stunned for a moment, then replied, "Looking for Teacher Gu!"

She didn't dare tell him that she was looking for Li Jing, because she didn't dare to offend him with that dark face.

"Teacher Gu?" Xie Feixing touched his chin with interest.

Gu Niannian, who was almost at the door, saw the two people standing there. "What? What are you doing standing there? Do you feel like old friends? Reminiscing about the past?"

After saying that, Xie Feixing coughed lightly and moved away embarrassedly, "I am sorry for being abrupt, please come in, young lady."

However, Sun Yun still waited for Gu Niannian to go in first and followed closely behind.

Several people came to the square table in the yard, and Li Jing spread out a map and introduced the route of this trip.

Sun Yun couldn't help but ask, "Thank you... thank you, Master, for joining us on this trip?"

Gu Niannian nodded, "Yes, the four of us, together."

Xie Feixing didn't care. It would be more lively with more people, so he wouldn't be the only one being a light bulb and get burned out.

I just think that this girl is too bold. She looks only about fourteen or fifteen years old, but she dares to go out and play with others. Do her parents agree?

As I thought about it, my eyes couldn't help but look at Sun Yun, and I thought to myself, this girl looks weak and doesn't seem like a brave person!

Xie Feixing himself didn't feel anything, but Sun Yun's cheeks felt hot under his gaze, but she was too embarrassed to speak.

Even Gu Niannian couldn't stand it anymore. She coughed lightly and said, "Master Xie, isn't it rude to stare at a girl?"

"Ah?" Xie Feixing realized his own rudeness and scratched his head, "I just lost my mind."

Gu Niannian's lips curled up slightly, "Do you know the general route?"

Several people nodded.

"Each of you has brought a carriage. This time we're traveling light, so too many carriages would be inconvenient. So, two carriages, one for Yun'er and me, and one for Lord Li and Young Master Li, would be fine."

Another round of chicks pecking at rice.

"What dry food did you bring? Even though the journey isn't long, it still takes five days. Not every place has an inn for us to rest..."

When it comes to "sleeping in the open air," Xie Feixing is the best at it. He immediately raised his hand and replied, "Teacher Gu, I brought some raw rice, bacon, and some cakes."

"This classmate is indeed a veteran and does a good job." Gu Niannian responded to his words.

Sun Yun hid her smile aside.

Seeing her laughing so happily, Xie Feixing said seriously, "Hey, classmate who's laughing secretly, where's the food you brought? Teacher Gu needs to check it!"

After saying that, he looked at Gu Niannian and said flatteringly, "I'm right, right? Teacher Gu!"

Sun Yun's expression, which was originally trying to hide her smile, froze. It was true that she brought some food, but it was just some cakes and snacks. She really didn't bring any main course.

She thought that there should be no shortage of restaurants, post stations and the like along the way, so there was no way they would starve.

The main problem was that she had never traveled far and was not well prepared for this.

Gu Niannian knew what was going on from her expression and covered it up for her, "Since everyone is ready, Yun'er and I can take one carriage, and the two of you can take another. Is that okay?"

The two grown men looked at each other, and Li Jing raised his hand first, "I'd like to apply for a horseback ride."

Xie Feixing snorted, clasping his hands over his chest. "I don't even want to sit with you!"

Seeing the two of them on edge, Gu Niannian said nonchalantly, "Either you two can ride on the same horse, or you can ride in the same carriage. It's your choice."

"The horse needs to eat feed. With one person riding and the other in the car, it's hard to find food for the horse."

In the end, the two of them sat obediently in the carriage, but one of them leaned towards the inside while the other was almost stuck to the door curtain, and neither of them looked down on the other.

The two carriages looked the same from the outside, but once they were opened, the interiors were completely different. Inside one, people were chatting animatedly, while inside the other, they were like two enemies, wishing they were a million miles apart.

Finally, Xie Feixing, who was sitting inside, couldn't help but speak first, "Um, are you comfortable sitting there?" He touched the tip of his nose. "How about sitting in..."

Before Xie Feixing could finish his words, the wheel of the car ran over a large rock with a clang. Li Jing, who was already squatting weakly at the door curtain, rushed directly to Xie Feixing. If Li Jing's hand had not supported him in time, the two of them might have already had an intimate kiss at this moment.

Xie Feixing looked at the face that was so close to him, and felt a wave of fear in his heart. "I...I told you to sit closer, but...you don't have to be this close!"

Li Jing closed his eyes, unwilling to look at the scene before him, and said impatiently, "Move aside."

Xie Feixing obediently slipped under his armpit while muttering, "You were the one who threw yourself at me. If you want to be disgusted, it should be me who is disgusted with you!"

When Li Jing saw him leave, he turned around, sat in his seat, and closed his eyes as if to rest.

Xie Feixing was a chatterbox to begin with, and holding back for so long was the limit of his patience. He didn't care what the other person was saying, and continued to speak, "I really can't understand what Miss Gu sees in you. You're not even as pretty as me, and you can't even say a word for such a long time."

Li Jing opened his eyes, "I don't need a reason to like you."

Xie Feixing saw that his provocation was effective, so he pressed on, "What if I had met her earlier?"

Xie Feixing pointed in the direction of the curtain with his mouth, "Do you have no chance?"

Li Jing rolled his eyes at him and said, "No way."

"Why are you guys thinking of going to the capital this time? Don't tell me that this place is prosperous, but I've never been there before. Let's go and have some fun this time."
