Chapter 50: Sucking Snake Venom, the Young Lady's Heart Flutters...
Chi Zhao had been wanting to find an opportunity to see Shen Yan'an's feet, but unfortunately, he could never find a suitable opportunity that wouldn't get him beheaded. He could only put the matter aside for the time being and spent a month in this world.
Although she saved Shen Yan'an once, in Xiao Junzi's eyes it was something she should do, so her attitude wasn't much better, and she started to cause trouble for him again.
If someone wants pastries from East Street today and food from West Street tomorrow, they specifically ask this stable girl to buy them.
Others envied her for winning the favor of the princess, but Chi Zhao didn't want that favor at all.
It's exhausting, and there's no reward at all!
Another day passed, the rain stopped and the sky cleared. The little girl immediately wanted to go out to play. The weather had turned a bit cooler, so she wore an extra layer of clothing, but she still looked light and slender, which was very pleasing to the eye.
Chi Zhao waited obediently outside the mansion. Shen Yan'an came out skipping and hopping. Seeing that she was expressionless, he raised his chin. Chi Zhao immediately curled her lips into a forced smile.
Only then did the young princess nod in satisfaction and obediently get into the carriage.
Chi Zhao took a deep breath outside the carriage, trying to calm himself down.
The system was genuinely afraid its host would give up, so it kept reassuring her, "Host, host, don't be angry. The male supporting character is still young. Let's be more forgiving, okay?"
Xiao Zhou is about the same age as him, and she's never done anything like this before.
The system choked, thinking, "What kind of life did the mission subjects in the first world live, and what kind of life do they live in this world? How can they be the same?"
[The male supporting character has a bit of a temper, but I 99% guarantee that once he falls in love with the host, he'll be very obedient and well-behaved!]
Chi Zhao didn't believe it and scoffed, "Isn't he in love with Lu Mingwei? You think he's so obedient and well-behaved?"
No, even when facing his sweetheart, he was still as spoiled and bossy as ever, so she didn't think the male supporting character would become any more obedient because of her.
If she were to take a look at Shen Yan'an's feet now and discover that he was indeed Yan Zhou, she wouldn't be too happy.
After all, this proves that the real hard times have begun.
If it weren't for Yan Zhou, she wouldn't care what happened to the male supporting character; she would just finish the mission. But if it were Yan Zhou, she obviously couldn't just abandon him.
The thought of being tormented like this for the rest of her life made her want to give up on life.
The system recalled how the mission target had treated the female protagonist, and its blue-glowing body trembled involuntarily, no longer daring to speak.
The carriage moved slowly, and the young master was indeed not one to stay still. Before long, he raised an objection, "Chi Zhao, I want to eat candied hawthorns, go and buy them for me!"
All she does is eat. Now she wants to eat everything, but when it's mealtime, she won't eat this or that. If she accidentally eats too much, she'll blame us. What a mess!
Chi Zhao could not disobey the princess's orders, so he jumped off the carriage, walked to the old man not far away, took out his money and bought a string of candied hawthorns coated with sugar and made them crystal clear. He then went back and lifted the curtain to hand them to the princess inside.
Even with food in her mouth, Xiao Junzi couldn't stay still. After eating a few pieces, she stopped and stared at the sugar paintings not far away, shouting that she wanted to go over and have one drawn.
The carriage had no choice but to stop again, waiting for Shen Yan'an to ask for a sugar painting of a little rabbit.
As they walked, they came to a lake. The young prince wanted to go boating, so Chi Zhao brought him there.
Unfortunately, the young girl, who hadn't been able to find out where Lu Mingwei was recently, actually ran into Lu Mingwei and her group here.
Several young ladies and gentlemen strolled along the lakeside, their laughter and chatter filling the air with joy.
Shen Yan'an stared wide-eyed; Lu Mingwei had never smiled at him like that before!
So the young princess angrily rolled up her sleeves, jumped off the carriage, and walked towards Lu Mingwei and the others, unstoppable.
Chi Zhao had a bad feeling about it.
Sure enough, it all started with Xiaojunzi righteously accusing them of why they were together, and ended with Xiaojunzi running back in tears.
...
That's terrifying, that's terrifying.
Being love-struck is terrifying.
Lu Mingwei was already speechless at Junzi. Seeing him leave in tears, she naturally felt no pity. Instead, feeling unlucky, she and her other friends walked away to the other side, far away from them.
The people who looked at them, whether openly or secretly, were full of mockery. A noble lady chasing after a woman and ending up like this, it was indeed quite laughable.
Chi Zhao rubbed his temples and obeyed the prince's request to take him to the outskirts of town for a walk.
Xiao Junzi was in a bad mood, and only the breeze in the suburbs could make her feel a little better. The redness at the corners of her eyes gradually faded. Apart from being too angry when Lu Mingwei scolded her at the beginning, she didn't have any extra emotions now. She didn't stay in the car for long before running off to play around.
Autumn is the season when everything withers, and there's really nothing to see there. But Shen Yan'an doesn't come out often, so he's particularly interested and runs into the woods.
The autumn woods still had some green, and Chi Zhao followed slowly behind.
The two servants stayed close by the whole time, listening to their master muttering things like Lu Mingwei being a bastard, Lu Mingwei having no taste, and Lu Mingwei being blind.
They were tired of hearing these kinds of words; after all, they were personal servants and occasionally had to agree with their masters.
Chi Zhao followed the three and felt increasingly uneasy. Suddenly, he spoke up, "Junzi, we've gone too deep. If we go any further, there might be wild animals. Let's go back."
Shen Yan'an was always arrogant and could not tolerate others expressing different opinions. Upon hearing this, she immediately turned her head, put her hands on her hips, and said, "It's cold, what wild animals could there be? The schoolteacher said that wild animals sleep in winter. Humph, a horse woman is just a horse woman. She has never been to school and knows nothing."
Chi Zhao's face darkened, but he still patiently reminded her, "But it's autumn now, Princess."
No, where did this idiot come from? He's incredibly stupid.
Shen Yan'an was stunned. Autumn? Wild animals don't seem to sleep in autumn.
No, no, "What kind of wild animals could be in this kind of forest? I don't believe it! You just want to be lazy and don't want to play with me!"
I?
Want to slack off?
She laughed so hard. If WeChat had a step counter in ancient times, she felt like she could be among the top in her WeChat Moments every day. What was she doing slacking off?
Chi Zhao didn't speak, and Shen Yan'an took it as her having no way to refute it. He snorted proudly again and strode further inside.
He originally didn't care whether he went inside or not, but now it's more like he's being stubborn and going against the grain. If you don't want me to go, then I'll go anyway.
Shen Yan'an carried a handkerchief in his hand, wiping his hands from time to time. His eyes occasionally wandered around, clearly showing that he was not interested in the forest, but he just didn't want to leave.
Chi Zhao had a growing sense of foreboding. He felt that it wouldn't be good to go any further in. In autumn, some wild animals would come out to hunt for food because they couldn't find enough. What if he encountered one?
She wasn't sure she could protect people's safety.
"ah--"
Just then, a cry of pain from not far away startled Chi Zhao. Chi Zhao frowned, knowing something was wrong, and immediately looked up and took a few quick steps, "What happened?"
She heard the rustling sound of dry branches being crushed, and saw Shen Yan'an fall to the ground in fright. She guessed that he had been frightened or bitten by something. Her fingertips flashed with electricity, and the next second she pulled out a dagger from her waist. Following the sound of the wriggling dry branches, she stabbed him with lightning speed.
The servant exclaimed in surprise, and saw Chi Zhao walk over quickly, squat down and ask in a low voice, "Bitened by a snake?"
The young girl's face had already turned pale. She nodded hastily, filled with regret. She should have listened to the stable girl and gone out. Now, what should she do?
The servants were also in a panic. Failing to take good care of the princess was a serious crime for them. At best, they would be made to do some hard labor; at worst, they could lose their lives, especially since the princess was so favored...
Thinking about it this way, the servants were terrified.
"Where are you injured?"
Among the group, only Chi Zhao was able to calm down, and he helped the person ask.
Perhaps because the other party seemed too reliable, Shen Yan'an finally calmed down a little, but only a little.
He moved his leg, which was in excruciating pain, revealing a bloody hole in his sock. His thick eyelashes trembled violently, and he was terrified. "Ugh, it bit me here! What should I do? What should I do? Am I going to die? Chi Zhao, I don't want to die! Waaaaah! I haven't even gotten married yet! How can I die!"
Chi Zhao couldn't be bothered with this love-struck idiot. In this emergency, she didn't care about the usual male-female distance. She carefully lifted her sock and caught a glimpse of the pale mole. She felt a sense of relief, as if she had just known it would happen. Then she looked at the two small, dark blood holes.
The servant nearly fainted upon seeing the color; his fingers trembled. "It's...it's poisonous..."
"I want to do drugs."
The system said something, and Chi Zhao repeated it with a sullen face. At this moment, she really wanted to beat up her disobedient husband.
I told you to go out but you wouldn't, causing all this trouble. But I can't fight you because of my status, so I can only ask the system in my mind with a sullen face if there's any antidote.
When Shen Yan'an, who was leaning against the tree trunk, heard that he was going to take drugs, his face turned pale. He subconsciously glanced at the two servants, but they both backed away.
Drug use? Isn't drug use just trading one's life for another? The young lady has a bad temper and likes to cause trouble, so the servants just can't bring themselves to take such a risk for her.
When Shen Yan'an saw this, his heart sank, his eyes reddened, and he sniffled pitifully, thinking he was doomed. But then he felt a warmth on his ankle, and two warm, slightly moist lips pressed against his. The little girl was stunned.
His beautiful, moist eyes were filled with disbelief. His ankle ached from the sucking, but he ignored it, his only thought was, "Is she...is she doing drugs for me? I always oppose her like that, and now, she's the only one willing to save me..."
