I Knew You Won’t Be Able To Guess

“Wei wei wei…… How can just you leave me like this……”
“Get lost.”
With one hand carrying a chest while the other hand pulling ShangGuan LingLan, Jing Yue ran towards Jing Yan Lou’s back door. Only when she had reached her carriage did she take a breather and patted her ‘putong-putong’ (ba-dum ba-dum) bouncing little heart. She gloomily sighed in her heart, ‘She could be considered as someone who had managed to dodge a calamity’.
“Jing Yue, you better be honest and explain it to me, is there some kind of a hidden secret between you and Jing Lang? Why did you run just because you heard his name?” ShangGuan LingLan steadied her tone when she spoke while glaring at Jing Yue.
“Ai (sigh)…… It’s a long story.” Jing Yue let out a dejected sigh and said, “I’ll tell you next time, anyway, remember! If you see any person that has a relation with Jing Lang’s family, both father and son, you have to warn me beforehand! I’ll be prepared to run at any time!”
“E……” ShangGuan LingLan was a bit dumbfounded. She stared at Jing Yue frowningly and said, “Do you owe them, both father and son, money?”
“Go away! Go away! Go Away! Do I look like someone that would owe money to someone else and wouldn’t pay it back?” Jing Yue glaringly asked ShangGuan LingLan in a despising manner.
“Yes.” ShangGuan LingLan earnestly answered.
“I…….” Jing Yue had raised her fist wanting to hit ShangGuan LingLan yet her movement was stopped by a call that came from behind, “Huang Fei, Ninth Huang Shu had let this subordinate come to pick you up back to the fu.”
Jing Yue was startled. She turned around to look. “When did you come?” she loudly cried.
“This subordinate has been standing here all along……” Xing Er quietly drooped his head.
“E…… I completely didn’t realize……” Jing Yue ‘he he’ laughed and patted ShangGuan LingLan’s shoulder before saying, “I’ll see you tomorrow, I’ll go back first.”
“En, remember, next time, you have to tell me why!” ShangGuan LingLan said as she watched Jing Yue getting onto the carriage.
“Got it!” Jing Yue answered before turning around and entering the carriage, going towards the wangfu’s direction.

As soon as Jing Yue arrived in the wangfu, she went directly towards Xiao Chen’s study room, almost without any rest. The person hadn’t made it to the room yet but her voice had already reached there in advance. The hidden guards around Xiao Chen had already ******** because of her ear-popping shout.
Xiao Chen silently raised his head from behind the pile of documents and saw Jing Yue jubilantly rushing into his study. She brought something rectangular and directly ‘kuang’ (clang) banged it on his desk. With a face of someone who was excitedly showing off her treasure, she said to Xiao Chen, “Guess what this thing has inside!”
Xiao Chen stared expressionlessly at Jing Yue and said, “Money.”
“HAHAHA…… I knew you won’t be able to guess…… Hold on! You’ve actually just said money!” the smile on Jing Yue’s face suddenly froze, she stared at Xiao Chen in astonishment. Xiao Chen silently nodded his head with a completely bored look.
“You…… How did you know?” Jing Yue blinked and stared at Xiao Chen. She instantly felt aggrieved, ‘he could actually guess it, really boring.’
“Not only do I know it’s money, I also know it was Princess LeYang’s money.” Xiao Chen spoke indifferently and stared at Jing Yue.
“How do you know? Don’t tell me…… You… very good ah! You’ve sent someone to follow me!” Jing Yue’s eyebrows directly rose in anger and she glared furiously at Xiao Chen.
“If I want you followed, it will be done out in the open.” Xiao Chen opened the chest Jing Yue had placed on the table before saying, “Your deed has spread around the entire Imperial City, you think there’s still something to be said?”
“Ah?” Jing Yue was instantly filled with horror, ‘sure enough, the power of mass people is formidable! It has only been a short time ah, yet the entire Imperial City now knows about this! Does this mean that even those people inside the Imperial palace already know?’ Panic seized her at the thought.
