Chapter 10 Why be an animal? Isn’t it better to be a human?
Lin Ruoli was filled with hatred, but she quickly apologized to Chu Huaixu, "Brother Crown Prince, don't be angry. Yu Youning had just been taken back to the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion. She had never learned the rules and didn't know anything. She didn't mean to offend."
This sounded like he was explaining for Yu Youning, but in fact, he was telling everyone present that Yu Youning was just a fool who knew nothing.
Although the people in this room are not very old, due to their background and growing environment, they are all little adults and naturally have a lot to think about.
After hearing what Lin Ruoli said, there was nothing they couldn't understand. Many people covered their mouths and laughed secretly, and some even looked at Yu Youning with a gloating look.
Among them, Zhai Heming laughed the most happily, and the look he gave Yu Youning was full of malice.
He actually dared to question the prince in person. Yu Youning is dead this time!
Although the prince was only eight years old, he was named the prince at birth.
Although they were sitting together studying, the prince was the crown prince and they were his subjects, so they absolutely did not dare to offend him casually.
Now Yu Youning has offended the prince. If the prince gets angry soon, Yu Youning's butt will be beaten to pieces!
Just when everyone was thinking different things, Chu Huaixu nodded.
There was still no expression on Chu Huaixu's face, but he answered Yu Youning's question.
"Yes, I am looking at you."
All the students, including Lin Ruoli, looked at Chu Huaixu in astonishment.
In addition to being surprised, Lin Ruoli also felt a little flustered and angry.
Why wasn't the prince angry just now? Why did he answer Yu Youning's question?
After hearing Chu Huaixu's answer, Yu Youning's face was filled with pride, and she said with great joy, "See! I told you he was staring at me the whole time! Why are you staring at me the whole time? Do you think I'm cute?"
Chu Huaixu twirled his fingers again, resisting the urge to reach out, and nodded seriously, "Yes, you are indeed very cute. What's your name?"
"Yu Youning! My name is Youning, what's your name?"
"My surname is Chu, and my name is Huaixu."
"Oh!" Yu Youning responded, turned around without saying anything else.
Is class about to start?
What do you learn in class?
Is it medical skills or poison skills? Is it martial arts training or military training?
Chu Huaixu looked at the small figure with her back to him, looked at the back of her round head, and fell into deep thought for a moment.
Why did she just say "oh" and turn around?
Lin Ruoli looked at Chu Huaixu with her eyes, her fingers pinching into her palms.
The prince was actually staring at this little village girl!
Why? !
The prince has never stared at her like this before!
It is obvious that she is the girl of destiny and the destined princess!
Lin Ruoli's breathing gradually became rapid, and her expression almost distorted.
Fortunately, at the last moment, she adjusted herself and slowly turned around.
Although there was no expression on her face, Lin Ruoli had only one thought in her mind at this moment: no one could compete with her for the Crown Prince. She was the girl of destiny, and she must drive Yu Youning out of the Imperial College!
No! They wanted Yu Youning and her mother to be driven out of the mansion and sent back to the countryside!
Lin Ruoli was just thinking when Zhu Xuezhen walked in with a book.
When they saw Zhu Xuezhen, everyone stood up and greeted him in unison.
Zhu Xuezheng was about thirty years old, with an elegant appearance and a kind and gentle smile on his face. He nodded slightly and said, "Friends, please sit down! Open the book. Today we will continue to study "The Great Learning". Turn to..."
Zhu Xuezhen's voice was just like him, very gentle and calm.
He didn't read the book, but sat upright, reciting the contents of the book without thinking.
Those boring words and sentences, when spoken from his mouth, seemed to become stories, making people unconsciously calm down and listen to his narration.
Yu Youning had never attended a class like this before, and for a moment he was completely engrossed in the lecture.
At the beginning, his eyes were wide open, staring at Zhu Xuezhen without blinking.
But gradually, Zhu Xuezhen's words entered Yu Youning's ears and turned into a tune to coax her to sleep, making her eyelids start to twitch.
Bang!
The sound was not loud, but it instantly attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Yu Youning sitting up straight with his hands covering his forehead.
Her skin is porcelain white, so the redness from the bump is particularly obvious.
Zhu Xuezhen had never seen a student fall asleep in his class before, and he was a little surprised and a little amused.
But looking at Yu Youning's red forehead and the little hands that kept rubbing her forehead, Zhu Xuezheng still asked with concern, "Is it hurt?"
Yu Youning shook her head repeatedly, "No, no! Youning is not asleep!"
Zhu Xuezhen was stunned at first, then he laughed out loud.
This little girl is so innocent and cute.
Although there are several children of her age in this room, they have all been taught rules since childhood. Their every move and every word seems to be measured. It is impossible for them to fall asleep, let alone say such words.
Zhu Xuezheng didn't get angry, he just smiled and nodded, "It's good that you didn't fall asleep, just listen to the class carefully!"
Yu Youning quickly straightened his back, sat upright, and answered crisply, "Youning knows!"
Zhu Xuezhen started teaching again, but this time, his eyes always involuntarily looked at Yu Youning.
Every time Yu Youning felt that her eyelids were about to stick together, Zhu Xuezheng would look over, scaring Yu Youning so much that she would open her eyes wide.
After repeating this countless times, Zhu Xuezheng finally stopped and said, "Okay, that's all for today's class. Let's take a quarter-hour break before continuing with the large-character lesson. You must be able to write and memorize what you learned today. I'll be checking your performance tomorrow."
Lin Ruoli turned to look at Yu Youning, "Do you know what you have to memorize? You actually fell asleep in class just now. You really brought shame to the Yong'an Marquisate!
"Neither your grandparents nor your uncle would want to see you being so naughty and unwilling to make progress. You've really disappointed them!"
Zhai Heming sneered, "So what if he's the bloodline of the Yong'an Marquisate? He's already wandering around like a wild chicken, so he can never fly back to the treetops and become a phoenix!"
"Pheasant? Phoenix?" Yu Youning repeated the two words, his face full of surprise. "Why do you want to be an animal? Isn't it better to be a human?"
Lin Ruoli's face instantly turned red with anger, "Are you calling me a beast?"
"I didn't!" Yu Youning pointed at Zhai Heming with an innocent look on her face. "He clearly said that!"
Zhai Heming hurriedly looked at Lin Ruoli and waved his hands to explain, "Li'er, that's not what I meant... You are a phoenix, not a beast... No... I mean..."
The more anxious Zhai Heming tried to explain, the less clear it became.
Seeing that Lin Ruoli's face was becoming more and more ugly, Zhai Heming stretched out his hand towards Yu Youning and was about to hit Yu Youning in the face.
But as soon as his hand reached mid-air, someone grabbed his wrist.
Zhai Heming tried hard to break free, but his arms didn't move at all.
This made Zhai Heming feel embarrassed and annoyed, "Who is it? Who dares to catch this prince?"
"It's me! What do you think?"
The voice was extremely arrogant, yet also a bit casual.
Zhai Heming knew who this person was just by the voice, and he was furious, "Huo Qingchen, let me go!"
"Let you go?" Huo Qingchen raised his voice and sneered, "And then let you beat up a five-year-old girl? Zhai Heming, you are the heir of Chengyi Marquis's mansion, and you actually want to beat up a little girl? You have brought shame upon the Chengyi Marquis's mansion!"
Zhai Heming's face flushed red. "You know shit! Just now outside the Imperial College, she pinned me to the ground and punched and kicked me!"
"You were pinned to the ground and beaten by a five-year-old girl, and you still have the nerve to say that? If I were you, I would just find a crack in the ground and crawl into it!"
Zhai Heming wanted to refute, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.
At this moment, Huo Qingchen let go of Zhai Heming's hand and pushed Zhai Heming back.
Zhai Heming took several steps back until his back hit the table, and then he stopped.
Yu Youning was immediately interested in this scene, and looked at Huo Qingchen with sparkling eyes, "Wow! You are so strong!"
Huo Qingchen raised his chin proudly, "Of course! I was born with supernatural powers! When I grow up, I will definitely be a peerless general! Invincible, sweeping across countless armies!"
