Chapter 10: A Meal at Cuixiang Building

This ‘Miss Wen’ frightened Wen Yantong quite a bit.

She hurriedly stretched her neck to look left and right. After she confirmed that there was no one around except the two maids guarding the gate, Wen Yantong lowered her voice and said to Fu Tanghuan, "Do you want to kill me?!"

"Don't be afraid, no one will come here at the moment." Fu Tang smiled happily. Even at the young age of sixteen, she was a budding beauty.

Other sixteen-year-olds wore beautiful clothes, with good food and clothing provided to them, they were white and tender. However, the sixteen-year-old Wen Yantong was full of misfortune. After walking for two days with good luck, she immediately became crippled after going out.

She really wanted to shed some bitter tears. pure tl . com is the original tler / don’t re-post

But remembering that Fu Tanghuan was the heroine of this book, Wen Yantong felt better, after all, she had the protagonist’s halo.

"I would like to thank Young Lady San for sending me to the hospital, and it must have cost Young Lady San a lot of money. Please allow me to pay you back." Wen Yantong said very humbly, "Also, please don't tell others about my secret, Young Lady San."

Wen Yantong wasn’t worried that her secret was discovered by her. After all, Fu Tanghuan was a kind child and would not use it to coerce her.

The best way to deal with such a heavyweight protagonist was to not get involved. However, Wen Yantong liked Fu Tanghuan very much when she read this book. Although she was the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's Residence, she had never received the Prime Minister’s love. There was no shortage of food or daily necessities, but she remained a tool in her father’s eyes.

But Fu Tanghuan was a smart girl, and she often relies on her own brain to solve dilemmas, unlike many other heroines who rely on male leads to help them. translate(d) by puretl . com / do not steal / re po/st

Wen Yantong liked smart people, on the premise that their intelligence was not used against her.

"Why are you being polite? I wanted to thank you, if you hadn't blocked it with your legs, the carriage would have hit the wall." Fu Tanghuan patted her chest with lingering fear, "Fortunately, you hid your bag there."

No wonder why everyone kept saying that she saved Fu Tanghuan, so it was this kind of rescue method? !

Wen Yantong sullenly said, "To say fortunately...aren’t you a bit too much?"

Fu Tang said proudly, "Don't worry, since you were hurt because of me, I will naturally repay you. From today onwards, you can live in this place for as long as you want. I also stopped you from the punishment from the academy, so don't worry."

"But I still have to write a self-reflection letter." Wen Yantong said.

"I'll find someone to write it for you." Fu Tanghuan winked.

Wen Yantong was elated. She had always wanted to leave before Fu Tanghuan entered the academy, and the farther the better, but now, after a few words of exchange, she felt that Fu Tanghuan was quite pleasing.

Wen Yantong smiled, "I have troubled Young Lady San."

She waved her hand and said, "Come, I'll take you out."

"To do what?" Wen Yantong asked. translate(d) by puretl . com / do not steal / re po/st

"You have a leg injury and can't move well. I'll take you to help you order some crutches and take you to eat something delicious. I heard that you wanted to escape from the academy because you were hungry." Fu Tanghuan said, "My carriage is already waiting outside."

...You're really well-informed…

Wen Yantong originally wanted to refuse, but thinking that she really needed crutches, and that she injured her leg because of Fu Tanghuan, it was only right for her to be treated to a meal.

The Shaojing Dynasty was more lax in terms of the distance between men and women. There were a bunch of guards and maids around, so it was not seen as a taboo.

So Wen Yantong agreed. pure tl . com is the original tler / don’t re-post

However, they still sat in their respective carriages. Wen Yantong was carried out of Songhai Academy and followed Fu Tanghuan. They went to the very famous woodwork building in the city, and ordered a pair of custom crutches.

Unfortunately, at the door of the wooden building, she met Cheng Xiao, who came to order some bow and arrows.

The young man had long hair and a small white jade crown, and his eyes lit up when he saw Fu Tanghuan.

Wen Yantong thought she saw a husky.

But when she turned her head to look the other way, she saw Fu Tanghuan had the same look. She greeted to Cheng Xiao, "Xiao gege[1]!"

When Cheng Xiao walked over a few steps, Wen Yantong still had to salute him, "Paying respect to the Seventh Highness."

Cheng Xiaofei quickly waived her bow and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"Ordering crutches for Wen Yantong so that he can move more easily." Fu Tanghuan was very happy when she saw Cheng Xiao, and her tone was very familiar, "What is Xiao gege doing here? For your equipment?"

Cheng Xiao's face was also full of smiles, "The academy is about to start classes, so it's naturally time to order a new bow."

Wen Yantong felt this was a scene where two huskies met. They seemed so happy as if their tails were way up in the sky.

He is usually in Chaoge City, and didn't they just meet during the carriage accident? ?

Cheng Xiao didn't hear Wen Yantong's internal remark, and turned to ask her, "Has comrade Wen ordered a new bow? If not, I'll order one for you."

Wen Yantong was surprised, "...The academy provides bow and arrows..."

"The ones the academy provides are not as smooth, so it is better to order your own." Cheng Xiao replied.

Smooth? How can a person who can't shoot consecutive arrows have the right to be picky about whether the bow is smooth or not?

Comrade Wen doesn't need a new bow. Comrade Wen doesn't even know how to use a bow. pure tl . com is the original tler / don’t re-post

Wen Yantong smiled and refused, "How dare I make the Seventh Highness spend money, I will do it myself when I have the time."

Cheng Xiao no longer pushed the topic and asked Fu Tanghuan, "Are you guys busy with other affairs?"

Fu Tanghuan replied, "I’m going to head home for lunch, Wen Yantong will be going to Cuixiang Building."

The enthusiastic guy came uninvited, smiled, and said to Wen Yantong, "It just so happened that I also made an appointment at Cuixiang Lou, let's go together."

Fu Tanghuan turned to look at Wen Yantong, as if asking for her opinion. However, Wen Yantong had no right to refuse, but she still said, "How could this commoner dare to share the table with the Seventh Highness?"

"We are all classmates from Songhai Academy." Cheng Xiao said, "It's only a meal. I heard that you wanted to escape from the academy because you were too hungry. Eat your fill this time."

Wen Yantong was shocked, why are you also so well-informed?

Before she could say her second refusal, Cheng Xiao beckoned them to go to Cuixiang Lou, and she was fortunate enough to share a car with His Highness the Seventh.

Fu Tanghuan bid her goodbye and got on the carriage back to the prime minister's mansion.

After arriving at Cuixiang Lou, she was stopped by the shop assistant before entering the door. He held a wooden box and asked everyone to take a wooden ticket from it.

The shop assistant was mysterious and didn't say what the wooden ticket was for.

Wen Yantong glanced at it and found each wooden ticket had a different number engraved on it; her number was ninety-nine.

Just when she was standing at the door in a daze, Cheng Xiao had already gone in to greet the person he had made an appointment with. Surprisingly, in addition to that person, Cheng Xiao met many people in the academy who had some friendship with him.

Cheng Xiao was enthusiastic and loved to make friends. When he saw this situation, he invited them to get together. The conversation basically went as followed: pure tl . com is the original tler / don’t re-post

Cheng Xiao: "Are you eating here too?"

Friend: "Yeah! Is His Seventh Highness dining here too?!"

Cheng Xiao: "What a coincidence, let's eat at the same table. The livelier the better!"

In a short period of time, Cheng Xiao recruited a sizable number of people by virtue of his personal connections, reaching the point where they couldn’t fit in a private room and were seated in the lobby.

"This..." Wen Yantong was speechless.

When Cheng Xiao finished his greetings, he instructed someone to carry Wen Yantong to the two-person-wide table.

After those people saw Wen Yantong, they all said, "Are you the famished one who wanted to escape from the academy?"

How are you all so well informed? ? !

Wen Yantong smiled and cried in her heart.

Although it was a little embarrassing, she laughed it off and hoped to finish the meal soon.

Who would have thought that Cheng Xiao would attract so many people? None of the people at this round table were familiar to her.

But the more unexpected had yet to come.

Before anyone could make an order, the shop assistant called at the door, "Hello, Fifth Highness, Young Marquis, Young Master Mu, please come in—!"

Wen Yantong froze and subconsciously turned her head. She saw Cheng Xin in an almond-colored robe stepping in, followed by a smiling Chi Jingxi.

It was the first time she saw Chi Jingxi with a smile on his face. His clear eyes seemed to melt the white snow, it seemed to radiate warmth. Wen Yantong was stunned for a while.

Cheng Xiao stood up all of a sudden, and displayed his friendly personality to the max, "Fifth brother, are you here to eat too?"

This familiar opening remark, the next sentence should be-

"Why don't we eat together? The order hasn’t been made yet!"

Wen Yantong: ? ? ? pure tl . com is the original tler / don’t re-post

How many people did Cheng Xiao want to invite?

Can she not eat this meal?

Is there still time to be excused from here?

The author has something to say: 

Cheng Xiao: Come one, come all! It’s my treat!
