Linlin was worried and reminded her, "Never go into danger alone."
The only answer he received was Yanran's voice, already fading into the distance. "I know!"
Although her skills were exceptional and she was daring, her life was still very precious.
Yanran went to the teahouse again, intending to inquire about the waiter's address, but unexpectedly ran into Yuan Han, who had skipped school to drink tea.
As a result, Yuan Han went with her to investigate the matter.
That evening, Yanran took the wheat seeds she had bought home and consulted Tang Mingfan, who had grown up in the village. She soaked the seeds in warm water and placed them in a warm place to see if they would sprout.
The next day, nothing happened; the wheat stalks only swelled slightly, and some showed a tiny white tip.
By the third day, only about one-third of the wheat had sprouted.
That's really not right.
Yanran went to find Prince of Jin.
The Prince of Jin also discovered this and was about to send people to seize the batch of wheat seeds and then conduct a further investigation.
Seeing Yanran, Yanran volunteered to go as well.
After thinking for a moment, the Prince of Jin asked Linlin to take her to see him.
Yanran said, "Brother has already gone to the Imperial Academy. I'll go find him and say a few words to Cui Xiaoqiu. He's taking the exam tomorrow, and I'm afraid I'll be too late to talk to him."
Cui Xiaoqiu was definitely going to rest early today, so she didn't want to disturb her.
The Prince of Jin's expression was somewhat complicated, but he still agreed.
Yanran went to the Imperial Academy and told Cui Xiaoqiu about it. She patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "You'd better do well on the exam. If I have time tomorrow, I'll take you there; if not, I'll definitely pick you up after you finish the exam!"
Cui Xiaoqiu smiled and nodded.
Sitting on his horse, Yuan Han urged, "Hurry up, hurry up! If we're late, everyone will be gone!"
Yanran waved to Cui Xiaoqiu, mounted her horse, gripped the reins, spurred the horse forward, and the golden bow on her back gleamed in the sunlight.
Cui Xiaoqiu stood there until she could no longer see her back before turning around and slowly walking into the Imperial Academy.
Meanwhile, in Prince of Min's Residence, the habitually lazy Ren Yingying had not yet gotten out of bed.
There was nothing I could do. I was drawing handsome men until the wee hours last night, constantly muttering about Qu Nian that bastard was worse than a dog... and then I couldn't sleep and went to bed even later, so I couldn't get out of bed this morning.
Their relationship was just one step away from completion.
Everyone says that without being a beast, one is not a man, but Qu Nian is worse than a beast.
Should we force her to take the initiative?
Fine, I'll take the initiative. Who can't take the initiative?
So what if he talks about it later? Humph!
Having been a giant in words but a dwarf in deeds in both lives, Ren Yingying decides to stand up.
Yes, stand up tonight.
She tried to cheer herself up in bed.
But after getting up and eating breakfast, all the courage I had mustered up was swallowed up and vanished.
Ren Yingying could only "torture" Dog Meat.
She rubbed Dog Meat's head hard. "Dog Meat, can't you have some self-respect and tie up a dad for yourself?"
Dog Meat: Am I crazy?! I'm finding myself a dad!
Especially this father, who can possess other people's bodies at any time, how terrifying.
Ren Yingying wasn't really counting on Dog Meat. After thinking for a moment, she said, "How about we have a trap?"
Then, if you get Qu Nian a little wine, she'll be all smiles and affectionate, and things will naturally progress. Maybe they'll even end up in bed together, solidifying their marital relationship.
Without confirmation, I always feel like that dog could run off with someone else.
I hadn't realized how good Qu Nian was before, but now that I have, it's heartbreaking to see this good fortune flowing to outsiders.
The Dog Meat meat was expressionless.
--Your business is none of the dog's concern.
It's still a heartbroken dog, stop abusing it.
Once upon a time, a Xiaobai from the north stood before it, but it did not cherish it—mainly because it was no match for it, its strength did not allow it, and then it lost it forever.
Look at all the ugly stuff Qu Nian found for it, can't it just be a human being?
He even wants to be its father, huh?!
It and Qu Nian are like Ergou that can't share the same house!
Ren Yingying: "Okay, it's settled then!"
The main reason is that she's getting older and wants to have a baby; she also wants to become in-laws with Tangbao!
However, Tang Zhuyun has made it clear that she will "Wuji Wuji illness," meaning she will be the last one and will not have any more children.
If she doesn't step up her game, she'll end up letting Wuji eat some really tender grass.
That scoundrel, no way!
As she was muttering to herself, she heard a maid outside greeting Qu Nian.
Speak of the devil, and he appears.
Ren Yingying pretended to eat her meal in a serious manner.
Qu Nian seemed to be in a very good mood today. He came in beaming and waved to Dog Meat, saying, "Come on, Dog Meat, I've got a big gift for you today."
He realized that as long as he got the Dog Meat, Ren Yingying wouldn't be far away!
Success or failure hinges on this moment; tonight he will be consummating his marriage.
I was unmoved by the Dog Meat; in fact, I felt a little nauseous.
It's definitely another ugly dog, I refuse!
It harbors a dream of a white princess, and its other half must be as pure and flawless as a snowflake...
These foolish humans, let them stay quietly by themselves.
Ren Yingying: No, love really does have a fading period.
Qu Nian won't even look at her now, not even when he's looking at a dog.
Sure enough, taking action to subdue this person was urgent.
The two people and the dog each had their own thoughts.
Qu Nian couldn't wait to take the Dog Meat out.
Ren Yingying said, "You're not going to sell the Dog Meat, are you?"
Dog Meat: Mom, save me!
Qu Nian: "Of course not. Don't come along, it's not appropriate. This is a man's matter."
Ren Yingying chuckled, "It's a matter between men and dogs."
Qu Nian: "..."
Never mind, let her say whatever she wants, getting things done is the priority.
Dog Meat: Mom, I'm doomed! I have this feeling he's going to castrate me, and my groin is freezing...
But when Qu Nian carried Dog Meat to the outer courtyard and saw the row of Xiaobai dogs on the ground, his expression changed instantly.
There's nothing better than a father in this world; a child with a father is a treasure.
Dad, I can do it!
Its white moonlight had a whole row of them, and suddenly the Xiaobai didn't smell so good anymore.
After all, wolves are really fierce, and being bitten really hurts.
Once the Dog Meat was satisfied, Qu Nian stroked its back and said, "Look how smug you are now. Shouldn't you help me out? Otherwise, you won't be so carefree tomorrow."
Dog Meat: "..."
Okay.
It wasn't that he lacked willpower, but rather that his mother also missed him dearly.
It seems like it's not a loss for them to do a good deed and receive two favors in return.
Qu Nian added, "We had an agreement, so tonight's performance will be crucial for your future. You'd better do your best."
The Dog Meat seemed to say, "I've done my job. I'm such a brave dog!"
And you?
Let's see tonight if it's a useless dog.
Mom, I've brought the person to you.
