[That bug was so scary. I walked around the village in the afternoon but didn’t learn anything.]

[There is a feeling that the food is at your lips but you can’t swallow it. ]

Hearing Xiao Ruyu's soft sigh, Doctor Yang smiled faintly and casually picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it in her bowl.

"If the little princess doesn't dare to learn, you can let Eleven learn from you."

"That way I can protect myself."

Xiao Ruyu looked at Doctor Yang expectantly, and was delighted to see that he agreed.

She put down her bowl and chopsticks, walked forward, grabbed his arm, and shook her hands.

[Master has promised me that he can teach Eleven?! ]

Although she originally wanted to teach Eleven, Doctor Yang had always refused in the past, fearing that the same mistake would happen again.

But I didn't expect that he would give in now!

Doctor Yang nodded slightly, with a hint of smile on his face.

[That's great! Eleven! I can teach you! ]

She looked at Eleven, her eyes filled with unstoppable joy.

Eleven, however, just focused on eating the rice in his bowl without saying a word.

Doctor Yang and Xiao Ruyu looked at each other in confusion, somewhat bewildered.

After dinner, Doctor Yang returned to his room.

Xiao Ruyu threw herself into Eleven's arms, thinking that he was distracted just now, and asked him with her head tilted.

[Eleven, I just said I wanted to teach you how to use poisonous insects, why didn't you say anything?]

Eleven pursed his lips and said tactfully, "I think Eleven is not suitable for learning these."

"Master was here just now, and it would be awkward for Eleven to offend him."

Now it was Xiao Ruyu's turn to be confused, and she was stunned for a moment.

[Eleven, are you unwilling to learn from me? ]

"Of course not!" Seeing that she misunderstood, Eleven quickly picked her up and frowned.

【Why is that? 】

"Because..."

Eleven's eyes flickered with hesitation, "The little princess is afraid of insects. Eleven is afraid that if she learns this skill in the future, she will have to carry insects on her body every day, and the little princess will also be afraid of Eleven."

So that's how it is!

Xiao Ruyu felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She rubbed his chest and blinked slightly.

[Eleven, you worry too much. How could I be afraid of you? ]

She leaned closer to Eleven's arms and spoke softly.

[I was thinking that if there is danger in the future, you will have a skill to protect yourself.]

Eleven's frown finally relaxed a little, and he rubbed her face with relief.

"ah--"

Doctor Yang's screams came from the next room.

Is there danger?!

Xiao Ruyu and Eleven immediately exchanged nervous glances.

[What happened to Master? Go check it out! ]

When I arrived at Doctor Yang's room, I ran into an acquaintance.

I saw Miss Liu forcibly pulling Doctor Yang's sleeve, with a stern face and shouting in a loud voice.

"I've already fallen for you! You promised to marry me that day, why are you turning your back on me today?"

Doctor Yang wanted to hide from Miss Liu with tears in his eyes, but was blocked by her big body.

Xiao Ruyu and Shiyi looked at this scene and looked at each other in surprise.

She almost laughed out loud and swayed her body while hugging Eleven's neck.

[Master was forced to marry? ]

[I never thought that Master would fall into the hands of a woman one day. ]

Xiao Ruyu's baby voice entered Doctor Yang's ears, and he immediately looked outside the door, trying to ask for help.

Seeing that he was always looking towards the door, Miss Liu grabbed him by the collar and rolled up her sleeves, looking extremely fierce.

"What are you looking at? I'm waiting for your reply!"

[Hahahaha, is this what the village master meant by gentle and generous? ]

Xiao Ruyu couldn't stop laughing. She hid at the door to watch the fun and refused to show up to save Doctor Yang.

"There's no one at the door," Miss Liu turned her head and did not see Xiao Ruyu, so she exerted more force with her hands.

"As a man, you should stick to your word. Why don't you admit it now?"

Doctor Yang was quite helpless and sighed deeply, trying to persuade Miss Liu.

"You and I don't get along. What happened that day was a misunderstanding. Can I apologize to the girl for my words and actions that day?"

He looked at Miss Liu with pleading eyes, trying to get her to let him go.

Miss Liu snorted coldly, "Humph, once you make a promise, you must fulfill it!"

"You must marry me!"

Seeing that the tough Miss Liu's demeanor was completely different from that day, Doctor Yang's head was about to explode.

He forced a smile and had no choice but to lie.

"I'm sorry that I can't marry you, but I already have a crush on someone."

As soon as these words were spoken, Xiao Ruyu's little ears at the door immediately pricked up.

[Master has a lover? How come I never knew? ]

Miss Liu was obviously stunned and her grip on his collar loosened.

"really?"

"Are you serious?" There was some sadness in her eyes and her hands drooped at both sides.

In order to make the lie sound more convincing, Doctor Yang added two more sentences.

"She and I have known each other since we were young. We are childhood sweethearts."

"I hope Miss Liu can help me and not embarrass me."

He bowed to Miss Liu, stretched out his hand towards the door, and made a "please" gesture.

Miss Liu broke down and cried, and left sadly. She covered her cheeks and cried when she left, and did not notice that there were two "little ghosts" eavesdropping at the door.

However, as Xiao Ruyu listened to Doctor Yang's description, she felt more and more that something was wrong.

Isn't this referring to her mother?

[Master, something is wrong with you. Why did you end up bringing up my mother?]

She poked her head out of the door and looked at Doctor Yang with a smile.

Doctor Yang flicked his sleeves, straightened his collar, and glared at her.

"Master has only come into contact with a few women. Who else has he met besides the Empress?"

[And there was the prostitute who almost undressed Master that day. ]

Xiao Ruyu added fuel to the fire and recalled the events of that day for him.

[The master didn't take responsibility that day, which shows that the master is a bit heartless. ]

Her words were full of sarcasm, and she looked at Doctor Yang playfully.

After being glared at, Xiao Ruyu sensed the murderous intent in his eyes and retracted her head in disappointment.

【Master is still angry.】

"Don't let the master catch you." Doctor Yang pretended to walk towards the door and tried to pick up Xiao Ruyu.

Seeing that he was serious, Xiao Ruyu ran away laughing, still shouting.

"You hit a child!"

Doctor Yang stopped at the door, looked at Xiao Ruyu with loving eyes, and gave Eleven a look.

"Keep an eye on the little princess, don't let her fall down while playing."

Eleven nodded and hurriedly followed.

As soon as she ran to the gate of the yard, Xiao Ruyu smelled a fragrance with her sensitive nose and stopped immediately.

She stretched her neck and sniffed the smell in front of her, looking a little funny.

Eleven, who had just arrived, couldn't help laughing when he saw her like this.

"What is the little princess doing?"

Xiao Ruyu confirmed the source of the fragrance and her eyes lit up.

[Eleven, what a nice smell of wine! ]
