Chapter 175 Could it be that he has fallen in love with her?
"It's okay, it's okay. My life out there is pretty rough anyway."
Qi Chu has been wandering around the world for several years, so it is naturally impossible for him to live a life of luxury as before.
Since she said this, everyone naturally had no objection, and after dinner, everyone returned to their rooms.
Jiang Wan couldn't sleep tonight. The thought of Hua Xiao making weapons kept coming back to her mind, so she simply sat up from the bed.
"What's wrong?"
Song Jiuyuan, who was sleeping in the outer room, was also awake, so he naturally saw her every move.
Jiang Wan put on her coat and got out of bed, "You go to sleep first. I always feel uneasy."
She had to see with her own eyes whether Hua Xiao was crazy and whether he had made gunpowder or something like that.
"I'll accompany you."
Song Jiuyuan had already guessed what Jiang Wan was thinking. To be honest, he was also very curious.
So the couple put on their coats and quietly went up to the roof. The winter wind was a bit biting.
Jiang Wan quickly blew into her palms and walked lightly to the top of Hua Xiao's room.
"Very cold?"
Song Jiuyuan suddenly took her hand and rubbed it gently, transferring the warmth from his palm to her hand.
In the darkness, Jiang Wan was confused. What was wrong with Song Jiuyuan? Why did he always do such strange things recently?
Could it be that he has fallen in love with her?
Jiang Wan shrank her neck. It was an illusion, it must be an illusion. If he really loved her, he would not agree to divorce her.
"Better?"
Song Jiuyuan is very gentle, even he himself could not imagine that one day he would be so considerate.
Jiang Wan gently retracted her hand, "Thank you, I feel much better now."
She tried to control her heart and quickly diverted her attention.
Hua Xiao in the room was not asleep. She was still sitting by the candlelight, fiddling with something and muttering to herself.
"Once I make the weapon, the Sixth Prince will definitely look at me with new eyes. Then, won't the position of the Sixth Prince's Consort be easy to obtain?"
Jiang Wan on the roof: ...
Hua Xiao is really a fanciful person. Apart from anything else, it would not be easy for a peasant girl like her to rise to power in ancient times.
Even if the Sixth Prince didn't care, his mother would not let him marry a peasant girl.
Perhaps it was because her expression was too obvious, Song Jiuyuan could see it clearly in the dark.
"The Sixth Prince's mother has already chosen a princess for him. She is the daughter of the Prime Minister."
"So she is just daydreaming."
Jiang Wan shook her head. Hua Xiao was a modern person, but she didn't expect him to be assimilated so easily. It was really sad.
It was quite far away, so she couldn't see clearly what Hua Xiao was fiddling with, so she could only squat on the roof and wait.
When Hua Xiao rested, the wind was too strong at night and it hurt Jiang Wan's face. She could only rub her hands and blow out hot air.
"Wear my clothes."
Song Jiuyuan took off his coat and put it on Jiang Wan, but Jiang Wan quickly refused.
"No, I have my coat. You'll get sick."
Although she felt warm in her heart, Jiang Wan didn't want him to catch a cold. After all, it wouldn't be a big deal if his hands and face were frozen for a while.
"I have inner strength to protect me."
Song Jiuyuan gently held Jiang Wan's hand as she took off her coat. When their fingertips touched, it felt like an electric current was running through their bodies.
The softness of his palm made Song Jiuyuan feel extremely satisfied, but Jiang Wan hurriedly took a few steps forward.
"Then you stay cold!"
As she spoke angrily, she put on her coat. She lowered her eyes and held the coat tightly, as if she could still smell the unique scent of Song Jiuyuan.
"Hua Xiao is asleep."
Song Jiuyuan's voice interrupted Jiang Wan's wandering thoughts, and she quickly came back to her senses.
"Let's wait a little longer."
He was probably not asleep yet, so Song Jiuyuan naturally had no objection, but the temperature of the air in the cold wind rose a little.
Jiang Wan asked the system uncomfortably, "Tongzi, have you noticed that Song Jiuyuan is a little bit abnormal recently?"
“Ding ding ding…”
The system beeped in my ears, and soon the system said, "Master, no abnormality was found."
Jiang Wan: ...
It is indeed difficult to fall in love with a system.
Fortunately, Hua Xiao's continuous breathing sound was soon heard in the room. Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan looked at each other, and then they went into the room through the window.
Jiang Wan had just specially observed where Hua Xiao put the things. She walked straight over and opened Hua Xiao's "secret weapon".
When I saw the secret weapon clearly, I was speechless!
"What's this?"
Song Jiuyuan looked at the weird wooden spear in Jiang Wan's hand with confusion, his eyes full of puzzlement.
Jiang Wan suppressed her smile and said, "I don't know either. Let's take it away and study it."
She could probably guess that Hua Xiao in her previous life was definitely not a scientific researcher. This wooden gun was not even as good as a toy gun.
It seemed that she was worrying too much. With Hua Xiao's intelligence, she couldn't make something as advanced as gunpowder.
"OK."
Song Jiuyuan agreed, and the two of them tiptoed out of Hua Xiao's house and returned to the room. Jiang Wan carefully played with the wooden spear in his hand again.
Hua Xiao had a good idea, but her implementation was so weird that it seemed like she had never touched a gun in her previous life.
After studying it for a while, she simply handed it to Song Jiuyuan, "I don't think it has much killing power. You study it. I'll take a rest first."
"good."
Song Jiuyuan looked very serious and probably wouldn't rest until he figured things out. Jiang Wan returned his coat to him and decided to rest first.
Song Jiuyuan didn't sleep all night, and it was not convenient for Jiang Wan to enter the space, so she simply had a good sleep.
When he woke up the next morning, he found that Song Jiuyuan's eyes were red and he was still studying the "weapon".
Jiang Wan wanted to go up and persuade him, "What do you think? I think this thing is useless."
"Since the Sixth Prince is moved, it means there must be something that can impress him."
Song Jiuyuan is a serious person, and this is related to the Sixth Prince's future combat effectiveness.
"Then you can study it slowly. I'm going to have breakfast first, pack up and leave."
In fact, Jiang Wan already had some guesses in her mind. It was probably because Hua Xiao put forward a lot of theories that made the Sixth Prince crazy excited.
But the finished product is really not that good.
After everyone had breakfast together, Jiang Wan left a portion for Song Jiuyuan, but before they set off, they ran into trouble.
I saw Qingshan and Lushui being entangled by a middle-aged couple. The man pulled Qingshan and said angrily:
"You heartless bastard, I am your father!"
"You are not!"
Qingshan hugged Lushui tightly, glanced coldly at the couple in front of him, and raised his eyes to meet Jiang Wan's.
"master!"
Qingshan took a few steps to Jiang Wan, but Lushui was still hiding timidly.
"Sure enough, you were sold to a wealthy family!"
Boss Zhang had an expression that said "as expected" on his face and walked a few steps to Jiang Wan.
"I am Qingshan's father. Since you bought them, you have to give me money."
"Yes, yes, it's not easy for us to raise these two children."
Madam Zhang stared at Jiang Wan with shining eyes. Her intuition told her that this noble man was very rich.
"master."
Qingshan explained with a stern face, "I have no relationship with them anymore, you don't have to pay attention to them."
