Chapter 65 The Hypocritical and Greedy Childhood Sweetheart 03

He glanced silently at Liu Qingce, then angrily picked up his book and sat down at the desk. The forceful motion of sitting down changed to a gentle one when he saw his older brother.

Then, he picked up a book and, using it as cover, gave Liu Qingce another sharp look.

You read it every day, you read it every day. Why don't you just let yourself go with the book instead of dragging him into this mess?

Wu Tongxue had no desire to take the imperial examinations, and her family had already given up on it, but then that annoying Liu Qingce showed up.

He was so annoying that Wu Tongxue's guilt over teasing him disappeared.

Some people just deserve it.

Liu Qingce calmly sat down and began to review his lessons.

Liu Xian habitually ignored the lawsuit between the two, and since someone else was playing the good cop, it made it easier for him to play the bad cop.

After finally waiting for her older brother to go to the restroom, Wu Tongxue ran to Liu Qingce's side and immediately put down her homework.

She blinked at him, looking at him with a matter-of-fact expression, and said, "You write it for me."

Liu Qingce nodded, "The usual."

"Okay, okay." It's just reading through everything he wrote. "Where did I put my book?"

Wu Tongxue looked around but couldn't see it. It was the sketchbook he had secretly brought in, which he had left behind last time.

If my brother saw it, he would definitely pretend he didn't, and the book would definitely still be in the same place next time he comes.

It was Liu Qingce who could help him put the books away. His parents would sometimes come into the study to check on them and bring them food, so Wu Tongxue wasn't angry that Liu Qingce helped her put the books away.

Liu Qingce didn't even raise his hand, and scribbled his homework in the exact same handwriting as Wu Tongxue.

The skill of imitating handwriting was honed thanks to Wu Tongxue. He was most familiar with Wu Tongxue's handwriting, and the characters were exactly the same, to the point that even the person imitating him could hardly tell the difference.

"The third row of bookshelves, far right."

Wu Tongxue ran to pull out the book and disguised herself before her older brother returned.

After studying "very hard" all night, Wu Tongxue yawned and went to wash up.

Liu Hui habitually checked the area around the house and the door locks before turning off the lights. By then, Wu Tongxue was almost asleep.

A dreamless night.

-

Shen Yu had a dream all night, with various fragments interspersed. When she woke up, she forgot all the dream, but her head was throbbing.

He saw a bamboo house with simple furnishings. He got up and looked out the window, where the sun was shining brightly.

The young apprentice was pounding herbs in the courtyard when he noticed him. He immediately dropped what he was doing and ran inside, shouting as he ran, "Master, Master, the person has woken up!"

"Where is this?" Shen Yu asked calmly.

The young apprentice was stunned by his imposing manner, patted his head, turned around and shouted, "Master, Master, come quickly!"

He remembered his master saying to keep it a secret. How was he supposed to answer that? Oh well, he'd better call his master over.

"Master, Master."

With a creak, the door of the house across the street opened, and the master came out with a stern face.

"coming."

"Master, hurry, hurry, he asked me a question."

The master took a deep breath and quickened his pace.

"Did you save me?" Shen Yu could smell the strong scent of herbs in the air.

Dr. Liu looked him over and said, "You seem to be recovering well, but you still need to take the medicine for three more days."

The young apprentice eagerly spoke up: "Master, he asked us where this is?"

Shen Yu looked at the old doctor in front of him, who had an air of otherworldly wisdom and seemed to be a hermit.

"Thank you so much for saving my life, sir."

Dr. Liu waved his hand, "It's a doctor's duty."

Doctor Liu flicked his young apprentice on the back of the head, "Go back and grind the herbs. If you don't finish this morning, you won't get any meat for lunch."

"Ah, oh." The young apprentice ran back to the yard.

The young apprentice didn't know what his master had said to the patient, but the patient stayed temporarily and even offered to collect herbs to offset the cost of the medicine.

His clothes and accessories were marked as fake, and his purse had disappeared. Despite his glamorous appearance, he actually had no money on him.

The kind-hearted apprentice lent him a set of ugly clothes that were too big for him.

When Shen Yu put the clothes on, the young apprentice felt a little regretful; it seemed the clothes weren't so bad after all.

Even in coarse linen clothes, Shen Yu was different from others, possessing an air of noble elegance that made people hesitant to act presumptuously.

When he went up the mountain to collect herbs with him, the young apprentices became much more polite, always using "you" and "please" in their mouths.

The herb-gathering efficiency has improved, but the young apprentice still misses the days when he and his good friend Xiaoxue gathered herbs together.

This patient doesn't talk much.

If Xiaoxue were here, she would think the same way.

Wu Tongxue likes to collect herbs to earn pocket money, but she doesn't have the perseverance to go often, so she only goes occasionally.

Having not received any income for several days and having spent some of her savings, Wu Tongxue immediately went to find her junior apprentice with renewed energy.

"Little Liu!" Wu Tongxue called out.

The young apprentice's eyes lit up, and he waved in response, "Xiaoxue."

"I am here."

The young apprentice was completely unaware that the patient next to him had also suddenly turned around, his gaze fixed on his best friend.

"I brought osmanthus cake." Wu Tongxue shared snacks with him, and the young apprentice gratefully took out some dried meat.

"Huh?" Wu Tongxue looked surprised, not expecting to see him again.

That kind person who contributed to his secret stash.

Shen Yu's action was subconscious. Before he could even think about why he reacted that way, a face as beautiful as jade and as ethereal as a fairy came into view.

His thoughts connected, and he recognized the person he had seen that day at a glance.

Xiaoxue?

A very nice name.

Wu Tongxue felt guilty for a second, then cheerfully waved at him, "What's your name?"

Shen Yu smiled faintly and walked over, "Shen Yu."

Apprentice: "?"

Aren't you called Zhao Yi?
