Chapter 75: The Waves Are Not Over
As soon as Cheng Weiyao saw Chen Er's expression, she immediately started to attack him: "You can watch if you want. But first of all, I have to get married..."
"Falling in love with you? What bullshit! I just saw you acting suspiciously and came here to supervise you. Just do what you're supposed to do..."
Chen Er snorted coldly, turned around and wanted to leave, but he turned back after taking only two steps, his eyes still fixed on the basket in Cheng Weiyao's hand.
I almost got the upper hand because of this woman's provocation. She is indeed a sinister and cunning woman!
Because Chen Er stared with big eyes, it was difficult to take the ingredients out of the small basket, so Cheng Weiyao had to pretend to look for ingredients for cooking in the kitchen.
Fortunately, the women were wearing clothes with wide cuffs. As soon as the cabinet door was opened, Cheng Weiyao took the ingredients from the warehouse of QQ Farm, and then used her body to block Chen Er's sight, pretending to have found them from the cabinet.
In order to avoid being exposed, she didn't dare to take too much each time. However, Chen Er still became suspicious. He frowned and walked forward to open the cabinet door first. Of course, the cabinet was empty.
There was some dust in the cabinet, and it didn't look like it was used to store food. Chen Er's intuition made him even more certain that this woman must be hiding something.
He quickly walked over and clamped Cheng Weiyao's wrist. "The cabinet clearly doesn't look like a place to store food. You must have other means. Where are the supplies hidden..."
Cheng Weiyao simply switched hands and continued stirring the rice porridge in the pot while saying, "Officer, there are differences between men and women. Holding my hand like this will give people misunderstandings. Besides, where did the ingredients come from? Didn't you see it clearly? No matter how powerful I am, I can't create something out of nothing, right?"
Cheng Weiyao spoke at a moderate speed and with a calm demeanor. She herself did not believe in the existence of plug-ins like QQ Farm before she traveled through time, let alone the pedantic ancients.
"You're lying to me."
Chen Er narrowed his eyes. This woman was lying! Although he couldn't see through what tricks this woman was playing, he absolutely believed in his intuition and judgment.
"If the officer insists on doing this, I have no choice. I can't let you search me, can I? If you hold my hand, I could just scream molest..."
Cheng Weiyao pretended to be calm and looked at Chen Er. She didn't believe that Chen Er would attack her. After all, Wen Chengyun was still alive and well, and she was the Princess of Qingping after all.
Chen Er was full of suspicion, but he still let go of his hand reluctantly, staring at the door like a lingering poisonous snake.
Cheng Weiyao noticed Chen Er's movements and silently pursed her lips, busying herself preparing some side dishes. She had long known that Chen Er was so difficult to deal with. Fortunately, it would be much easier if the simple-minded Li Kui was here to monitor him...
Rice porridge and side dishes were soon served on the table, and the tempting aroma drifted through the inn. The exiles who were eating dry food and biscuits were drooling with greed. Just as the people from Prince Qingping's Mansion sat down, an ominous sound was heard the next second.
"Everyone is almost ready, right? I just looked at the map and the weather today. In order to reach our next destination as soon as possible, we need to set off early..."
Wang Gang stood up and coughed softly, signaling everyone to focus their attention. The officers had a map spread out on their desks. They had indeed been observing the route and determining their destination before Cheng Weiyao came out. The early departure time was a spur-of-the-moment decision.
Everyone didn't have any objections. After all, they were just eating dry biscuits, which were tasteless. But the people in Prince Qingping's Mansion had just prepared breakfast... This was a blatant targeting!
Cheng Wei Yao sighed softly. It seemed that she would not be able to have breakfast today. It was so difficult to prepare it, and now when it was finally served on the table, an obstacle appeared.
It doesn't matter to people like me and Wen Chengyun, but Wen Chengming is a growing child, the imperial concubine is old and weak, and Wen Liyu has a delicate physique. How can they set off on the journey without having breakfast?
I couldn't walk for long before my blood sugar and blood pressure started to rise. Drinking porridge while walking was obviously unrealistic. In the end, I could only eat some dry food and biscuits to fill my stomach. I felt that my efforts were in vain...
"This is bullying! He woke us up early and now he's leaving without even notifying me. He waits until my sister-in-law finishes her work before speaking..."
Wen Liyu's face was filled with dissatisfaction. She could only grumble quietly. After all, she had an injury on her foot. If the police brought this up again, she would be in big trouble...
"It's okay, Wei Yao, you've worked hard. We'll just pack up the porridge and take it with us on the road. It's all a thoughtful gesture, so we can't let it go to waste..."
The Imperial Concubine stood up and planned to find a container to pack the porridge, but before she could leave the table, her wrist was grabbed by Wen Chengyun.
"Mother, please sit down. It's not too late to continue your journey after eating..."
There was a hint of gloom and hostility in Wen Chengyun's eyes. It would be fine if the people above wanted to deal with him, but they wanted to prevent the disaster from reaching his relatives. If they couldn't deal with him, he would take revenge on his family members. Did they really think that his temper was soft and easy to control?
Upon hearing this, Wang Gang cast a surprised look at him. Wen Chengyun had been keeping a low profile all the way, especially after he injured his shoulder, he had been even more timid. It was just a trivial matter like ruining breakfast, so why did he suddenly become so tough?
Li Kui was a simple-minded man. Since Big Brother had spoken, they had to march. Wen Chengyun's jumping out at this time was just blatantly looking for trouble and embarrassing Big Brother! He slammed the table, stood up, and walked in front of Wen Chengyun: "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Didn't you hear Big Brother say to march early? Understand your position clearly!"
Wen Liyu was a little afraid of Li Kui. Because of his tall stature and the losses he had suffered in the past few times, she subconsciously shrank back and stayed close to Cheng Weiyao.
Cheng Weiyao's hand, hidden under her sleeve, gently wrapped around Wen Liyu's small hand. It was rare that her cheap husband couldn't stand it anymore and was ready to take action. She absolutely agreed with Wen Chengyun's tough stance.
The team still had an hour to go, yet they suddenly moved up their schedule at this crucial moment. Their purpose was too obvious. Although this was just a small matter, it reflected the larger issue. If we don't resist now, the road ahead will only become increasingly difficult...
"Who are you to talk to me? I told you to finish eating before you leave."
Wen Chengyun's long eyebrows were slightly frowned, and his slender and well-proportioned fingertips gently turned to place the chopsticks on the bowl. When he raised his eyes, a trace of undisguised murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"If you're not convinced, you can try and see if I can handle you with just one hand..."
