Chapter 167 He'll be alright
After listening to the silence in the room for a while, Canghai arranged for Yu Qiao to wait in the main hall.
Then he leaned against the outside and chatted casually with Chun Tao.
"Sir, really, it's not even dark yet..."
Normally, Chun Tao would have scolded him for talking about his masters so improperly, but today, Chun Tao seemed somewhat distant towards him.
"Chuntao, is something on your mind? Would you like me to be your confidante?"
Chuntao rolled her eyes at Canghai, turned her head away without saying a word, and continued to wait for her task.
Canghai also turned around and took out a hairpin wrapped in silk from his bosom. It was a simple white magnolia, which was not flashy but very delicate when worn on the head.
"Don't be upset. This is for you. It doesn't look good to have a long face. Smile, okay?"
Chun Tao looked at the hairpin with flowers in it, her heart filled with turmoil.
Thinking to himself, "This person is really something. Will he give away anything just to please someone?" He became even more annoyed and muttered to himself.
“I’m not your pet that you can just wag your tail for a bone. This hairpin with flowers and mulberry leaves suits me better. You can give it to her.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened, and Chunyu Han walked out of the room with a sullen face, his pale face clearly showing his unsatisfied desires.
But it just so happened that it was Yu Nian's brother who came, so he had no choice but to endure it.
Chuntao lowered her head and went into the room, ignoring Canghai.
Petals were scattered all over the small couch in the room, and Yu Nian's face still had a lingering blush.
Chun Tao restyled Yu Nian's hair and helped her change her clothes. Yu Nian looked at Chun Tao in the mirror and seemed to be preoccupied with something.
"Chuntao, what's wrong?"
Chun Tao didn't say anything, but shook her head again and carefully combed Yu Nian's hair.
"Miss, I'll go and invite the second young master over."
Watching Chun Tao's departing figure, Yu Nian sighed softly, "The one who tied the knot must untie it."
Canghai doesn't seem like a clueless blockhead, so how did he end up like this?
"Meow~"
A short while later, two figures, one in black and one in white, ran in through the door.
Jingzhe nimbly jumped onto Yu Nian's lap, curling up in her palm and acting coquettishly.
Behind Jingzhe was a small, fluffy white tiger cub.
The animals grew very quickly; in just ten days, they were already much more energetic.
"Xiao Wu, are you alright?"
Yu Qiao removed his veil, revealing his handsome face and slightly curly hair.
When he first came to Yu Nian's place, his every move was visibly awkward.
"I'm fine, just a little weak. I'm sorry to have worried you, coming all this way. How's the blind box business?"
While teasing the cat, Yu Nian also scooped up the little tiger cub.
When Jingzhe saw the tiger cubs come up, she grumbled unhappily and pushed the cubs' round heads with her paw.
"It's all good... I know you secretly hired servants for me, thank you."
Yu Qiao is now living peacefully on Dongming Street, and no one bothers him for no reason anymore. As for the Black Panther Gang, I heard that their hideout was raided by the Imperial Guards some time ago, and the whole gang was arrested and imprisoned.
"Second brother, you don't need to be so polite with me. You even took care of it for me. Look how well you've raised it."
While Yu Nian and Yu Qiao were talking, Jingzhe jumped off Yu Nian and hid behind Yu Qiao.
“I came here to talk about this too. I probably can’t raise your tiger cubs anymore. Jingzhe is a bit selfish and always bullies the cubs.”
Jingzhe always steals the tiger cubs' food. He told him many times, but Jingzhe wouldn't listen. When Jingzhe acted cute, Yu Qiao would soften and couldn't bear to hit it.
"Haha, is that all? It's nothing. I was going to keep it anyway."
Yu Nian picked up the little tiger cub, held it above her head, and shook it affectionately.
"Don't rush, wait until you grow up before you settle accounts with Jingzhe."
The second brother smiled slightly, saying that when it grows up, Jingzhe will probably stay in the tree all day and won't dare to come down.
What is it called?
When Yu Qiao asked this, Yu Nian realized that she hadn't given the little tiger cub a name yet.
"Hmm, how about you call yourself... Little... Little Steamed Bun? Or Little Flower Roll?"
Yu Nian recited the names of more than a dozen kinds of food, but the little tiger cub didn't react at all.
"How about we call it Frost's Descent?"
Yu Qiao looked up, her clear eyes like spring water in a pool, clean and pure.
"Frost's Descent?"
Yu Nian called out, and the little tiger cub finally responded with a howl.
"Haha, you're quite picky. Second brother is better at naming things."
Yu Nian smiled and put Shuangjiang on the ground to play. Sure enough, in no time, it went over to Jingzhe and started fighting with it.
"It's rare for Second Brother to come all this way. If Fourth Brother hadn't left, that would have been great. I heard Fourth Sister-in-law is pregnant, but the pregnancy isn't very stable yet. As soon as I woke up, he rushed back. Otherwise, we could have had a meal together."
Yu Nian felt a little regretful; it would have been better if her older brother were here too.
"I'm afraid we won't be able to get any..."
Yu Qiao said calmly, "I heard that my third brother was slapped by Father and locked up."
"Um?"
Yu Nian raised an eyebrow. If even Yu Qiao could hear about it, then it must be no small matter.
Moreover, Yu Nian had a better idea of why her father had hit Yu Sheng.
After seeing Yu Qiao off, Yu Nian planned to go back to the Prime Minister's residence for a visit.
Before leaving, she glanced at the value of her merit points.
To save Chunyu Han, she spent a fortune, turning a six-figure sum into a five-figure sum in an instant. Luckily, she earned merit points for delivering the white tiger's baby, otherwise she would have been back to square one.
[See? Sixth Master's method works, doesn't it!]
The system spoke with a smug air, saying, "Young people, if you're more direct and less roundabout, many things will be much easier to solve."
"Hey, you weren't peeking, were you..."
Yu Nian's pretty face flushed slightly, but she was still very grateful to Lao Liu, who had at least not tricked her this time.
Am I such an unscrupulous system? I'm too old for anything too stimulating.
"I'm not joking with Lao Liu anymore," Yu Nian said seriously.
"Sixth Brother, can I take Chunyu Han back with me?"
In the original owner's memory, a year later, Chunyu Han would inevitably raise an army, which would end in failure.
As for the reason, the original owner didn't know either, after all, she was in dire straits at the time.
"Of course...no. He's a character in the book; once he leaves this place, his luck will be gone. I think you'd be better off thinking about how to save Chunyu Han's life a year from now; that would be more realistic."
Now, Chunyu Han only has political power, not military power. He appears so calm, but he is secretly plotting something.
Yu Nian remembered what he had said; he also had secrets.
He'll be alright, he'll definitely be alright.
Yu Nian stood up, looked at herself in the mirror, and adjusted her emotions. Some things cannot be rushed and need to be considered further.
