Si Jin's eyes flickered, knowing that someone had once again brought trouble upon themselves.
Using the action from earlier, it carefully smoothed the bristling fur on its tail.
Then, it slowly perked up its ears and bared its teeth at Wei Linyuan.
With a fierce yet endearing expression, she threatened, "Stay away, don't disturb my meditation!"
At this point, the nose started bleeding profusely.
To avoid embarrassment, Wei Linyuan quickly turned around and wiped himself with a handkerchief.
When you tease someone as reserved as her, will she meow or whine?
Do your ears turn red when you cry?
Will its tail also get all puffed up?
Wei Linyuan couldn't bear to think about it any longer, so he quickly cut off his thoughts and silently pondered what interesting things he should do with the Transformation Talisman after Jinjin recovered.
A moment later, there was a knock on the door. Wei Linyuan got up, took the tea and ice cream brought by the guard, and was about to turn around and go inside.
The guard, concerned about the large amount of iced drinks, quickly reminded him, "Your Highness, please be careful. It's late autumn now; drinking these things can easily harm your health."
Wei Linyuan laughed and replied, "It's alright, I just have a short temper."
After saying that, he closed the door.
With a weary sigh, I think: "My dear, I hope you get well soon."
Otherwise, even this herbal tea and ice cream wouldn't be able to save him.
… …
Around noon, Wei Linyuan went out to cook. When he returned, he saw the smug cat climbing onto the low table, seemingly wanting some water.
But even the smallest cup was half the size of his body.
Little Si Jin stared at the water glass as if it were a huge vat, unable to drink the water. She rested her chin on her hand, lost in thought.
Wei Linyuan's heart skipped a beat. He quickly walked a few steps, put down the food, poked Si Jin's fluffy tail, and maliciously interrupted his thoughts.
"Hmm..."
Si Jin was startled for a moment, her tail bristled again, and the tips of her ears turned slightly red. She turned her head and glared fiercely at Wei Linyuan.
Wei Linyuan was completely charmed and quickly admitted defeat: "Jinjin is so fierce, I'm so scared. I know I was wrong, I'll go get you a super small straw right away, just a moment."
After saying that, he made a move to turn around.
Although they did this, they did not actually leave.
Wei Linyuan secretly observed Si Jin's changes, and when he relaxed his guard, he quickly turned around and tugged at his tail.
"Meow!!"
He only rushed out of the room when he realized his wife was angry.
Si Jin took a deep breath, suppressing her anger, and picked up her tail and stroked it twice.
The little girl gently wiped away the tears that had accidentally spilled from the corner of her eye.
He turned around, dipped his fingers in water, and painstakingly drew a reconstructed array on the table beneath him.
He had just observed how Wei Linyuan drew the Spirit Binding Array, and with a simple check by Xiao Yao, he would know how to break it.
As her body gradually recovered, Si Jin quickly jumped down from the low table. After her body had completely returned to normal, she looked down at the steaming hot food.
He took a few steps forward and ruthlessly locked the door.
Little Yao's ears perked up high: "My lord, Little Heavenly Lord hasn't returned yet."
Yes. Si Jin's words made perfect sense: Since he's not back, does this delicious food belong to the two of us?
Xiao Yao clapped her hands: [That's right! Then let's lock the door tighter! Xiao Yao wants to do it more often ψ(｀′)ψ]
Thus, the thirty-two-year-old most powerful minister of the Southern Liang Dynasty pitifully missed lunch and could only stand by the lake against the wind, waiting for his wife, who was a full twelve years younger than him, to calm down.
… …
In the afternoon, Si Jin was required to teach the wealthy students of Xuan Yuan Academy, as per regulations.
However, the dean changed the content of the lecture.
The original "Explanation of the Laws of Beast Taming" has been changed to "Trial in the Mysterious Forest".
In the orderly and quiet dean's office, Si Jin glanced at her altered lecture notes and suddenly turned her gaze to the dean opposite her, a faint chill in her eyes.
Before she could even voice her question, Mu Siyu, dressed in a dark purple dress, approached the dean and pretended to be friendly: "Dean, you don't know, do you? My younger brother is quite capable."
“Back in our Northern Qi, he was a genius at taming beasts. He even managed to bring the only ancient auspicious beast, the Qilin, under his command.”
"His Majesty attaches great importance to him and specially invited me to participate in this trial to broaden my horizons. I believe that Jinjin will definitely be able to open everyone's eyes to a whole new level."
While saying this, what she really thought was: Jinjin will definitely be devoured by the black snake, leaving not even a trace.
