Meng Yingying interrupted Xiao He sharply, "Don't speak, or I'll betray you!"

Xiaohe's face turned pale, and she froze on the spot.

"Walk."

Meng Yingying turned back and glared hatefully at the private room before quickly leaving.

Guo Zhong then leisurely adjusted his belt and came out of the private room.

The servant looked on with envy at Meng Yingying's retreating figure. When he saw Guo Zhong come out, he hurriedly went up to flatter him, "Young Master, congratulations on finally getting what you wanted."

"You're quite clever, kid." Guo Zhong patted the servant's shoulder with satisfaction.

If it weren't for this tactic of retreating to advance, he might not have succeeded.

Then, looking at Meng Yingying's retreating figure, he sneered, "Miss Guan is nothing special."

"Then young master, you must go to the Meng family to propose marriage. If Miss Meng marries into the family, her maid Xiao He..." The servant has taken a liking to Xiao He.

Although that girl wasn't particularly good-looking and wasn't very tall, she had a very large chest.

Now that the young master has taken advantage of the young lady, the maidservant must be his now, right?

Guo Zhong smiled and said, "What's the rush? This time it's not me begging the Meng family, it's the Meng family begging me. Otherwise, who else would want Meng Yingying besides marrying me?"

"Young Master is brilliant, truly brilliant."

The servant flattered them, and the two men left with lewd smiles on their faces.

When Meng Yingying got home, she locked herself in her room, slapped Xiao He several times, and warned her not to reveal a single word about what happened that day.

Xiaohe was beaten and knelt on the ground, looking completely bewildered. She thought that young ladies these days were terrifying.

After warning Xiaohe, Meng Yingying told her to prepare a hot bath.

Every time she closed her eyes, she saw Guo Zhong's disgusting face on her body, which made her grit her teeth in hatred.

She remembered the grudges against Guo Zhong, Jiang Changtian, and Lin Shuyun.

……

……

"Ah! Ahh!"

"Who's talking badly about me behind my back?"

Lin Shuyun was watching ants move house under a tree when she sneezed several times and rubbed her nose.

Jiang Changtian went to the academy to borrow books. Since women weren't allowed to enter, she waited at the entrance.

"Young lady, it's you again? What a coincidence, we meet again."

Hearing the sound, Lin Shuyun looked up and saw people coming out of the gate.

Wearing a scholar's robe, she was the one I saw while lying in the tree last time.

"It's you. What a coincidence." Lin Shuyun said, then looked down at the ants again.

Xian'an, however, took the initiative to approach, "I am Xian'an, greetings. Are you looking at ants?"

"What do you need?" Lin Shuyun raised an eyebrow.

"It's nothing, I just have a deep impression of you, young lady, especially your scent... it's intoxicating." Xian'an revealed what he thought was a dashing smile.

That young lady really hit hard last time; his arm ached for a whole day.

He was so impressed by her that he couldn't help but come up and strike up a conversation when he saw her now.

Lin Shuyun smiled even more upon hearing this, "Come on, come closer and smell it more."

Xian An paused for a moment, then broke into a wide smile, "This... isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

This young lady is really something else. A normal person would be angry or embarrassed to hear him speak like that.

She went straight to him, leaving him speechless.

Lin Shuyun smiled innocently, "Is there anything wrong? Come here!"

Xian'an hesitated for a moment and took two steps forward before his ear was grabbed.

"You little brat, with two balls under your eyebrows, all you can do is vent your anger and not know how to look, huh? I'm not someone you can mess with!"

I learned this trick from Qin Niangzi, and I must say, it feels pretty good to pull someone's ear.

Xian An winced in pain, "I'm innocent! I didn't flirt with you! You're the one who told me to come over and smell you!"

How could he forget that this flower has thorns and can prick your hands?

"You come here when I tell you to, or you eat shit when I tell you to?"

Lin Shuyun twisted her ear 360 degrees, "Xian'an, huh? I think you're just bored!"

"I was wrong, I was wrong, my ears are going to fall off!" Xian'an cried out, not daring to shout loudly.

"Then next time you see me, remember to speak nicely."

The next second, Lin Shuyun released Xian An and kicked him in the butt.

Xian'an was kicked and ran forward several steps, almost falling flat on his face.

"My lord, you're out! Did you manage to borrow the book?"

Lin Shuyun greeted Jiang Changtian with a smile.

"Got it." Jiang Changtian came out of the door and smiled at Lin Shuyun.

Then he noticed Xian'an, "He..."

Lin Shuyun took Jiang Changtian's arm. "I don't know him. Let's go back quickly. I want to eat the pastries my aunt makes."

How could we let Jiang Changtian see us hitting someone? What if he gets scared away?

"Okay." Jiang Changtian's face flushed slightly.

Yu Guangyou glanced at Xian'an.

I just overheard it from the headmaster's office. How come the nephew of Consort Xian is here at Mishan Academy?

What exactly is it about Wuyun County that has caught the attention of higher authorities?

Jiang Changtian's eyes darkened.

Xian An covered his buttocks, watching Lin Shuyun's face change in an instant, his expression quite interesting.

That's an incredibly fast change of expression.

One second she was a shrew in front of him, the next she became a well-behaved and gentle young woman. He had never seen a woman like this before.

Shi Luo ran out and saw the person, then went berserk, "The dean told you to get the book, and I've been looking for you for ages! What are you doing here! Can't you just wander around a bit more?"

Xian An touched his burning ears and clicked his tongue in the direction Lin Shuyun had left.

"The women in this small town are really feisty; it's quite an eye-opener."

"Where did this girl come from in the academy? Stop being so flirtatious and leave now!" Shi Luo was not wrong about him; Xian An clearly had a look of lust on his face.

Seeing a footprint on Xian'an's buttocks as he turned around, he asked curiously, "Why is there such a big footprint on your butt? Did someone hit you?"

"Don't ask, this is a gift from a beauty." Xian'an smiled, in a good mood, after all, he had discovered an interesting person.

Shi Luo cursed, "You're sick."

……

……

The two returned side by side, each carrying a book, and Qin Niangzi, who was standing at the restaurant entrance, saw them and teased them.

"They're such young people, their relationship is so sweet it's almost saccharine. It's just two books, and they insist on going together."

Lin Shuyun chuckled upon hearing this, "Auntie is also very young, she looks about the same age as me."

Qin Niangzi laughed upon hearing this, "My niece is so good with words, her little mouth is as sweet as honey."

"Aunt, are the fermented rice pastries ready?" Lin Shuyun was eagerly waiting to eat them.

She'd tried chocolate-filled liqueurs before, but never any fermented bean curd desserts, and wanted to see if they tasted the same.

"Uh……"

When asked about this, Madam Qin was a little embarrassed. "I failed. Next time, I'm sure I'll succeed next time."

The heat wasn't controlled properly, and they all turned into charcoal; none of the pastries are edible now.

Xiaoqing scoffed, "I don't think he knows how to make it at all. He's just trying to scare people. How can you eat a pastry with wine inside?"

"You're not going to eat." Qin Niangzi didn't even glance at him.

Xiaoqing sneered, "What do you mean by helping in the kitchen? Apart from making noodles on the first day, I haven't seen you cook anything edible. I don't think you can cook at all."

Qin Niangzi picked at her ear. "You're not going to eat it?"

"you……"

Xiaoqing wanted to say something more, but a scholar came to the restaurant entrance.

Is Jiang Changtian here?
