Chapter 349 - 349:1 Seemed to Have Accepted a Beautiful Young Disciple With a Frozen Face
“Tomorrow…” Liu Shimei was about to explain that she could not go anytime soon, as she had many things waiting for her.
However, Huangfu Lingyao interrupted her train of thought. ‘Wife, I promise you won’t regret going tomorrow.’
“Oh?” His words piqued Liu Shimei’s interest.
Huangfu Lingyao teasingly added, “You’ll find out when we go tomorrow!”
Liu Shimei blinked, then reached over and ruffled his hair. “Alright, it’s your call.”
It was a habitual indulgence.
Because he sat lower in the car seat, he finally managed to ruffle her head, giving him a sense of satisfaction.
Grateful for his wife’s approval, Huangfu Lingyao leaned closer and planted a firm kiss on her cheek. “Wife, you’re too good to me.”
Liu Shimei was speechless.
Unbelievable. Could kisses now be given without prior consent? But, upon reflection, hadn’t she allowed this herself?
The next day.
After returning home, Shu Jun spent the entire night organizing all the information he could gather about the Jiang and Wu families.
Bright and early, he delivered the materials to the Grand Chancellor’s Residence. His efficiency was unparalleled.
By now, the people in the Grand Chancellor’s Residence were no longer surprised when men came looking for their Eldest Young Miss every now and then. Not to mention the servants, even Liu Fuyun and Madam Zhang did not make much of a fuss about it.
Why make a fuss? Were they so bored that they wanted her to scold them?
Liu Shimei was acting quite arrogantly now; they could not provoke her until they were absolutely certain!
But if Yan’er could become the Crown Princess, then it would be their chance to turn things around!
When Huangfu Lingyao arrived, Liu Shimei had just finished reviewing the information compiled by Shu Jun.
As soon as he entered, he was still the same, like an energetic Siberian Husky just let out of its cage.
“Wife, I’m here! Let’s get going, shall we? I came here today in a carriage too!”
Without waiting for Liu Shimei to respond, he added, “The medicine you gave me yesterday, I’ve already used it. My butt doesn’t hurt anymore today. We can have a great time now!”
Facing this foolish and excited King Dun Yu, Shu Jun remained calm and composed, bowing respectfully. “Greetings, King Dun Yu.”
Liu Shimei was impressed: Did I just acquire a beautiful disciple with a frozen face?
She turned to Huangfu Lingyao and asked, “Where are we going exactly, and will it take the whole day?”
The excited look on the Silly Second Prince’s face immediately froze. “Wife, have you changed your mind?”
After asking, he looked vigilantly at Shu Jun, his body leaning slightly toward Liu Shimei. “You didn’t make a secret arrangement with him to stand me up, did you?”
Liu Shimei explained, “If the place we’re going to doesn’t take up the whole day and we have spare time, we can take a look at medicinal herbs. Shu Jun is quite skilled in this area, and I do plan to take him along.”
Huangfu Lingyao’s expression immediately turned forlorn, as if he were sensing that ‘Wife doesn’t love me anymore’, ‘Wife has found another dog’, or ‘Wife wants to have two lovers’ vibes.
Whenever he displayed such a pitiful look, Liu Shimei could not help but consider changing her stance to accommodate him, a subconscious desire that seemed to emanate from the depths of her soul!
She furrowed her brow and said, “Why not… we can go play first and look at the herbs tomorrow.”
Unexpectedly, her silly puppy said very obediently, “Then bring him along! Didn’t he say that a disciple should respect his master? Today, we’ll take him and let him serve us!”
Liu Shimei was speechless.
This guy just goes with the flow.
But-
She reached out and pinched her silly son’s cheek, complimenting with a playful smile, “My dear Lingyao, why are you so cute?”
Huangfu Lingyao looked utterly miserable inside.
The two set out together, leaving behind Mo’er and the others, and only taking Zhang Lang and Shu Jun. In addition, they had Huangfu Lingyao’s coachman, Li Xin.
Off they went!
