“Xiao Chen……” Jing Yue rushed towards Xiao Chen’s side. She blinked her eyes and stared at him.
“En?” Xiao Chen answered softly while lowering his head to continue reading the document.
“I want to ask you about something very, very serious!” Jing Yue said earnestly with her eyes still focusing at Xiao Chen.
“Speak.” Xiao Chen answered indifferently like he completely was not about to hear something very important.
“If…… Imperial Consort Fu, that childhood lover of yours wants to kill me, who will you help? Her or me?” Jing Yue said in a deadpanned manner while staring at Xiao Chen. His hand, which was holding a writing brush, suddenly froze. That pitch-black ink dripped onto the document.
Xiao Chen slowly placed the brush in his hand down. He leaned his head, staring at Jing Yue, his gaze was extremely terrifying. Being stared by Xiao Chen with that kind of gaze, Jing Yue had chills ran down her spine. She swallowed her saliva and gave a forced laugh before saying, “I was just saying some nonsense, don’t take it seriously…… haha……”
“I will never let this kind of thing happen.” Just as Jing Yue was ready to turn around and leave, Xiao Chen suddenly said those words. Jing Yue’s footsteps paused, the corners of her mouth rose into a beautiful smile as she raised her hand to grab the chest on the table.
“Xiao Chen, I’m not the sort of person who would be scolded without retorting back and get beaten without hitting back ah.” Jing Yue softly said before turning around to leave.
“I understand.” Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows and stared at Jing Yue’s back as she left. His eyes seemed to be pondering.
Jin Yue smiled. She left the study room and walked towards Lian Yuan, swinging her arms. The retaliation that Jing Yue expected didn’t come. The breeze was still and the waves were quiet. At one time, Jing Yue even wondered, was it be possible that in fact, she hadn’t offended Princess LeYang at all and it was Princess LeYang that actually had offended her?

The days inside the school passed just like before. It was just that Yun momo became happy nowadays. It was because Jing Yue and ShangGuan LingLan, who both originally didn’t like to study, were actually exerting a lot more effort in studying. This fact had made Yun momo extremely relieved. This time’s examination, there should be no occurrence of someone failing.
However, Jing Yue was about to do a huge, earthshaking thing today!
In fact, from the moment she stepped out of the school, she directly ran away and vanished. Even Xing Er, who was waiting outside, was also dumped behind by Jing Yue. While Jing Yue herself, at this moment, she was blindly wandering around in a certain narrow nameless alley. She was looking at all of these similar looking buildings in front of her. An expression of doubt showed on her face.
“Strange…… in the end, into which courtyard did I run last time?” Jing Yue mumbled as she bounced into a certain courtyard, taking a look. After Jing Yue went into that courtyard by mistake and saw that man back then, she had always been thinking about it. She didn’t know what prompt her to do so, but Jing Yue finally decided to go and take a look one more time.
Last time she had run away too soon and completely hadn’t seen that man’s face clearly.
“I remember…… seems… it’s this place ah……” Jing Yue cautiously went towards a shabby courtyard’s gate. This time, that courtyard gate was tightly closed. Jing Yue moved forward and tried to push the gate. She found that it wasn’t locked and carefully pushed the gate open, peeking at the courtyard inside from the crack between the gate.
She saw a shabby house inside. It was covered with weeds. Jing Yue instantly knew, she had found the right courtyard. A chill suddenly ran all over her body. Jing Yue softened her breath. One small step after another, she walked cautiously inside according to the path in her memory.
The sight of familiar bamboo forest went into her eyes. Jing Yue suddenly lost her courage. That man’s face kept appearing so clearly in her brain just like it was a curse. Jing Yue’s heart couldn’t help but tremble, thinking that she shouldn’t do something like this.
