You must be tired.""Voting begins!"Old Wang rushed forward in a few steps, standing between the two. Although it was three out of two wins, they hadn't even voted yet for the third round.Needless to s...[]

"What are you doing, leaning so close"

It's too close, so close that she can see her reflection in Beichen Yi's eyes.

Yun An'an wanted to step back, maintaining a safe distance from someone.

Beichen Yi, who had been prepared, gently dragged Yun An'an's head, leaving her no way to dodge.

The distance between the two of them had closed just a little more.

A gust of wind blew by, and the flickering candlelight further heightened the already hazy atmosphere.

"An'er."

"What's up"

"As a husband, I want to have a child."

Beichen Yi expressed his desire to keep Yun An'an and build a beautiful family with her without any reservation.

Who knew...

"Who are you going to have children with It's not something someone else can give you."

Yun An'an dodged Bei Chen Yi's gaze and deliberately changed the subject.

"My husband wants to have a child that belongs to us together."

"If you and I want it, others can't give the child to you either. Taking a child away is against the law, we can't do that!"

Continuing to make things up, she knew exactly what Beichen Yi meant.

Their relationship can only be based on a contract.

Once the love poison and toxins are cleared from his body, she will eventually have to leave Yiwu Palace.

Yes, this guy has a great figure, high looks, wealth and power. He's totally the male protagonist in ancient romance novels.

But she didn't want to be bound. Once she had ties, it would be difficult to leave later.

Besides, attraction and love are two different things.

"As intelligent as An'er, she clearly understands my meaning. Why would she beat around the bush"

His thin lips, pursed into a line, came close to Yun An'an. Just a sliver of distance separated them from a kiss.

Yun'an an, however, reached out with both hands and forcefully pushed away Beichen Yi. She turned around and left the study, squatting beside a tree stump in the courtyard and vomiting.

"Ugh~~~"

I threw up most of what I ate tonight.

When stomach acid backs up into your esophagus, that feeling can be killer.

"Is it better now"

Standing beside Yun An'an, Bei Chen Yi lightly patted her back, wiping the smudges on her lips with a handkerchief.

"Is the poison from Wang Hai Chuan so potent"

During the day, I was only a little uncomfortable, but who would have thought that the reaction would be so severe at night.

It's a good thing that I used a lot of water to induce vomiting at the time, otherwise the consequences would have been worse.

"For her husband, An'er has suffered."

Holding Yun'an in his embrace, Bei Chenyi's eyes were filled with self-blame.

That was my oversight at the time.

She felt completely drained and powerless. Yun An'an slumped limply on the bed, too exhausted even to acknowledge Bei Chen Yi lying beside her.

"Sleep now, my love. I'll be here beside you."

"Hmm~"

Sleepiness gradually came over her, and not long after, the even breathing sound rose, Yun An'an clutched Beichen Yi's clothes tightly and fell asleep.

"My lord."

Bai Shiqi stood by the door again, glancing at Yun An'an who was asleep. A strange look flashed in his eyes, but it disappeared quickly.

"What is it"

The prince of Xiling has arrived.

"Acknowledged. This king will go to the banquet once An'er is fast asleep."

"Yes."

……

The next day.

After a good sleep, Yun An'an stretched lazily, but there was no Bei Chen Yi beside her.

For some reason, a faint sense of loss crept into her heart.

What's the matter with you Get to work!

It had already been an hour since leaving Yiwu Mansion to arrive at Yingtian Academy.

Under the leadership of Yuwen Xiu, the students of Class Jia Ding Beng were conducting a weighted run. However, Xue Qiancheng and Xue Muceng were missing from the squad.

What about the two of them

What about it

Qiming puckered his lips and gestured for Yun'an to look to the left.

Xue Qiancheng and Xue Muceng, each carrying double the weight, almost ran side by side, vying with each other for speed, afraid of falling behind.

"How many laps"

"It's been ten rounds."

"Let's go eat breakfast, don't worry about them."

Okay, let's go have a meal.

Yun An'an and Yu Wenxiu Qi Ming and the others left the A-grade Dingban Academy district and headed straight for Uncle Ming's small restaurant.

Only Xue Qiancheng and Xue Mucun were left in the yard, vying for first place.

Ming Shu knows that Jia and the others in Ding Class have been training hard recently, so he specially prepared a rich and nutritious breakfast.

"Come come come, this is Ming Shu specially made braised pig trotters for you all. One for each person, Yun Wuzhi, you have one too, it's not greasy."

"That smells so good!"

Holding a plate, the braised pork hooves inside were alluring in color. A bite revealed them to be incredibly tender and juicy, melting in your mouth.

"Delicious~~"

Everyone attested to the delicious taste of Shu's braised pork trotters through their actual experience.

Yun An'an was eating when Ming Shu walked over with a letter. There were no words on the envelope.

"When one gets old, you see, my memory isn't what it used to be. This morning someone asked me to deliver this letter to you and even gave me a good sum of money."

Ming Shu held a bag of money, inside was glittering gold.

“The man said to let you go to Tianxiang Building after reading the letter and find him. By the way, Master Yun, please return these coins for me. It’s unsettling to keep them.”

Although he was just an ordinary man who had run a small eatery his whole life and hadn't achieved much, he also knew that unexpected wealth shouldn't be taken for granted, especially when it was so much gold.

"A letter"

Opening the letter, there were only a few short sentences in black ink on the white paper.

But the arrogance and pride that seeped through his words made people frown.

"Uncle Ming, take the money. Nothing will happen. Besides, Little Jade, don't get married for a while. Use this money to prepare some good dowry."

Ming Shu has a daughter who couldn't find a good husband because she was blind.

Yunan An also checked Xiaoyu'er's eyes, finding that she was congenitally blind. There was nothing she could do about it.

Even with twenty-first century medical equipment and skilled techniques, replacing an artificial eye can only restore vision to about fifty percent.

"This won't do, I can't possibly be at ease with so much gold."

Ming Shu said not to take anything, but insisted that Yun An An return the moneybag full of gold.

Unwillingly, Yun An'an could only agree.

After everyone finished breakfast and returned to the Jia Ding class, Xue Qiancheng and Xue Muceng collapsed on the ground, panting heavily.

"Braised pork hooves are really delicious, wow wow wow~~"

"Didn't you bring one back for young master"

Xue Qiangcheng sprang to his feet, but Cai Ming's hands were empty. He didn't even have a single scrap of braised pig trotters.

"Little master bites you to death, you really didn't bring it!!"

A vicious dog lunged, Xue Qiancheng suddenly pounced on Qiming.

"Come on, come on, don't you really bite me, you dog! Oh!"

If Wen Xiu hadn't taken out the salted pork from his hiding place, Qi Ming would have had to lose a piece of meat.

"Delicious, Uncle Ming's cooking skills are amazing."

A bite of steamed bun, a bite of meat. He's clearly a prince of this country, yet he eats like a savage beggar on the street.

"Have a bite."

As Yun An'an walked up to Xue Mu City, she handed him a plate of braised trotters and two hot steamed buns.

Thank you.

Thanked him, Xue Mu Cheng took the food.

"Since you're all in the esteemed Class A, Ding, you've been living like well-behaved ladies. You eat like a pampered young miss from a wealthy family. If it weren't for Master Yun bringing you food, you wouldn't even be able to get your share."

Compared to Xue Qichen's way of eating, Xue Mucun is much more civilized. Every mouthful has to be chewed dozens of times.

"Who cares, she's been spoiled her whole life. We're not as delicate as her."

Hmphing, Xue Qiancheng had already finished the hoofed pastries in her hands. Her gaze slanted and landed on the food in Xue Mucheng's hands.

Seizing the opportunity when Xue Mu Cheng wasn't paying attention, Xue Qian Cheng darted forward and snatched the horse shoe from his hand. Then, she took off running with all her might.

And Xue Mu City, holding two steamed buns that were still steaming hot in his hands, watched helplessly as the barely touched trotters flew away.

"Xue Qiancheng... Are you a bandit!"od box, wanted to say something but dared not. He could only limp away, his heart silently praying that the Princess Consort of Yi wouldn't get into trouble, or he wouldn't have ten lives enough to at...
