"You little fatso, how dare you mock this princess? This princess will exterminate your entire family!" Ye Jingshu glared angrily at Yun Shu with her hands on her hips.
"Royal sister!" Ye Jingchen called out loudly.
“I can try to persuade Father to allow you to study at Wenhua Hall, but I have one condition,” Ye Jingchen said to her.
"What are your requirements?" Ye Jingshu asked.
“You can’t bully people just because you’re a princess. If you can’t do that, I’ll ask my father to send a female tutor to your palace to teach you,” Ye Jingchen said.
"Did I bully him? I was just stating a fact. Isn't he fat?" Ye Jingshu asked indignantly.
"Although Yun Shu is a bit chubby now, but—I don't know if you've ever heard the saying, 'Every fat person is a potential stock,' if Yun Shu loses weight, she will definitely amaze you!" Ye Jingchen said seriously.
In the novel, Yun Shu is far more popular among the noble ladies in the capital than Xie Chang'an, the male protagonist, and Gu Beichen, the young genius.
"Him? Tch—" Ye Jingshu said with a look of disdain.
"Stop looking down on me!" Yun Shu glared at Ye Jing Shu.
If it weren't for the fact that this body of his is still very useful, he would definitely lose weight to show this annoying princess!
She looks so pretty, but I never expected her to have such a sharp tongue and such a wicked heart. She's nothing like His Highness the Crown Prince!
"Royal sister, can you do it?" Ye Jingchen asked.
Ye Jingshu stared at him for a long time before giving in.
"As long as no one provokes me, I won't bother with them!" Ye Jingshu said angrily.
“Since you’re here to study, you should naturally focus on your studies. If you want to prove that women are no less capable than men, then you need to keep up with your studies!” Ye Jingchen subtly provoked her.
Ye Jingshu is a spoiled princess with the common problems that most princesses have, and her symptoms are quite severe.
It's a good thing that she's willing to study at Wenhua Hall, but her princess syndrome is a ticking time bomb. Ye Jingchen is determined to teach her a lesson, but the process of treating her can't be rushed and needs to be done gradually, otherwise it could easily backfire.
During this time, to prevent her from causing trouble and disrupting unity, Ye Jingchen felt it necessary to provoke her and get her to focus more on her studies.
"Who do you look down on?!" Ye Jingshu glared angrily at Ye Jingchen. "This princess is doing very well in her studies, but unlike that other person, I don't go around showing off just because I can recite the Three Character Classic!"
It goes without saying who 'that person' is.
As she said this, she glanced at Ye Jinghe.
That glance was filled with hostility and condescending disdain, as if in her eyes Ye Jinghe was nothing more than an insignificant ant.
Ye Jinghe loathed such looks; they fueled his resentment.
A red glint flashed in his eyes, and he lowered his head.
His bowed head was seen by Ye Jingshu as a sign of weakness and surrender, which made her even more smug.
“Jinghe didn’t show off. I wanted to show off for him. Jinghe is so smart, can’t he show off?” Ye Jingchen didn’t notice the eye contact between the two and looked proud.
His mentality is no different from that of millions of ordinary parents: when their child is successful, they want the whole world to know!
"What does it matter to you whether he's smart or not? What good will it do you to make him famous? You stupid idiot!" Ye Jingshu had just thought she had won against Ye Jinghe when she was angered by Ye Jingchen's words and scolded him with disappointment.
Ye Jingchen thought to himself, "There are so many benefits!"
But these benefits are something that cannot be told to Ye Jingshu.
After all, she was attracted to Ye Jinghe because of his intelligence.
However, while he and Ye Jingshu were arguing, why was Ye Jinghe, as the person involved, so quiet?
Ye Jingchen went to look at Ye Jinghe and found him still sitting at his desk, head down, motionless.
If Ye Jingchen didn't know that Ye Jinghe was very well-behaved and wouldn't do something like dozing off in class, he would have thought that Ye Jinghe was asleep.
He walked over to Ye Jinghe, reached out and patted his little head, and said gently, "Jinghe, it's time for your break. Take a rest."
Ye Jinghe did not react, but his body seemed to tremble slightly.
Ye Jingchen sensed something was wrong, bent down to look at Ye Jinghe, and met a pair of blood-red eyes.
Ye Jingchen hadn't seen Ye Jinghe's eyes for several days, and after a moment of stunned silence, he realized that Ye Jinghe had lost control again.
He quickly took out the perfume from the sachet at Ye Jinghe's waist, opened it, and brought it to Ye Jinghe's nose.
"Jinghe, quickly smell this."
"Relax, don't be afraid..." He held the balm in one hand and gently patted Ye Jinghe's back with the other to comfort him.
"Jinghe, relax, your brother is here..." he coaxed softly.
"Little Ye Jinghe, what kind of trouble are you causing now?" Ye Jingshu grumbled unhappily, and walked over to Ye Jinghe's side, imitating Ye Jingchen's behavior, bending down to look at Ye Jinghe's face.
Upon seeing this, she was so frightened that she took several steps back.
"He's going crazy! Royal brother, get away from him!" Ye Jingshu screamed.
Her scream seemed to provoke Ye Jinghe, who suddenly looked up at Ye Jingshu.
The blood-red eyes, seemingly gleaming with a bloodthirsty light, instantly turned Ye Jingshu's face deathly pale.
The others also clearly saw Ye Jinghe's unusual behavior and gasped in shock.
The balm, which was not mixed with love flowers, had limited calming effect. Ye Jingchen was worried that Ye Jinghe would be agitated again, so he had to put down the balm and hug Ye Jinghe tightly.
