Chapter 59: Happy Over Another’s Misery
Why, he was a shy guy after all!
Ling Yichen was startled.
She never thought the expressionless Ling Yichen would say something like that.
Obviously, Aunt Wang had grabbed onto a fail-safe lifeline here.
Reality was indeed cruel.
But in the end, he said something so unlike himself instead.
Furthermore, since his gut feeling told him that Ling Chunxi might not even have knowledge on the matter, he thought to run the facts by her before he drew any conclusions.
She looked at Ling Yichen and held his gaze, then she beamed a big, sincere smile at him and made sure to speak clearly.
“What?!” Ling Chuxi turned to look at Ling Yichen in surprise.
Little White was carried onboard safely in Ling Chunxi’s arms and Ling Yichen entered the carriage after her.
“Master Yichen has bought Miss some meat buns, steamed dumplings and Siu Mai1!” yelled Aunt Wang from outside her door.
Once she was done with breakfast, Ling Chunxi entered into the carriage prepared by the Ling family to send her and Ling Yichen off to White Stone City.
If she had been awakened from a deep slumber, her grumpiness would have exploded.
The question is, who?
“Yes.” Ling Yichen nodded calmly, then slowly said without expression, “I think she deserved it.”
She hurriedly got dressed, put on her shoes and grabbed Little White before dashing out the door.
“There was an incident at the Qin Manor last night.
Why did she scratch up her own face to the point of disfigurement?
“Chuxi, do you know what happened last night?” he asked simply.
Truly, thank you.” From this moment on, Ling Chunxi considered Ling Yichen a friend.
Still, the matter of Qin Xiruo’s trauma lingered on her mind.
The fox’s ears drooped against its tiny head which bobbed up and down as it nodded off.
Therefore, her circumstances now are well deserved.” Ling Yichen communicated his thoughts while looking directly at Ling Chunxi.
“What’s that?” A corner of Ling Chuxi’s lips twitched.
It was a legitimate worry that Ling Chunxi might be tricked or cheated due to a generous serving of delicious food one day!
After a period of time passed, Ling Yichen opened his mouth to speak.
What happened?” Ling Chuxi asked distractedly.
Qin Xiruo seems to have been traumatized by it.
Her first in this unfamiliar world.
Its rays were accompanied by a deep autumn chill.
The sun had risen, radiant and warm.
Ling Chuxi was stunned.
The carriage started its slow journey with a lurch, leaving Shi Qu Town behind little by little.
Ling Yichen remained silent.
“Why is it that your blank face somehow seems to be connoting a sense of you being happy over someone else’s misery?
The Phantom Mushroom powder would not have had such a lasting effect on her.
From food to clothing and daily necessities, everything had been completely set up for her.
She keeps saying there was a ghost.
This was as swift as anything could be!
Ling Chunxi was glad she didn’t have to bring anything along with her as the Ling clan had already prepared everything for her over there.
What was going on?
He knew very well about the matter of Qin Xiruo causing Ling Chunxi much suffering.
Her reaction would have shattered earth.
How it is that the cool, proud and dignified Ling Yichen would harbour such an emotion?”
However, despite this knowledge, Ling Yichen did not think Ling Chunxi had harmed Qin Xiruo in such a manner.
“She tormented you for many years, did she not?
His handsome face never betrayed any expression of emotion.
No, I don’t.
“She disfigured her own face?
Mornings were meant for lazing about, no?

Ling Chunxi found this amusing. fre\e(w)ebn ov.e l\. co.m
Somebody else did this to Qin Xiruo for sure.
This was the difference between the those who passed the assessment and those who did not.
She was still engrossed with the scenery outside the window.
Little White turned to look at Ling Chunxi in silent judgement.
Ling Chunxi did not take kindly to any disruptions to her eating and sleeping activities.
For real though.
“Yeah, I got it!” Ling Chunxi mumbled impatiently.
She was already somewhat awake, so this was fine.
Ling Chunxi immediately perked up.
Excitement rose in Ling Chunxi as she pulled back the curtains to look at the changing scenery.
Now, this was speed!
“Thank you, Ling Yichen.
Siu Mai is a type of Chinese dumpling usually eaten during a dimsum meal.
As he was looking into Ling Chunxi’s clear, bright eyes, Ling Yichen suddenly turned away without a word.
Scratched it up?”
They discovered her this morning with her face all disfigured because she had scratched her own face up with her nails.” Ling Yichen presented the facts succinctly and gently.
In fact, she thought he might have asked if she had anything to do with it.
Little White was falling asleep in her lap.
“Yesterday night?
It is usually filled with minced pork meat
