She figured that if they hadn't finished their task and copied the book in three days, they wouldn't dare to cause trouble in front of her. As for when they would finish copying, that was up to them.
This was Princess Ping's idea.
But what she didn't expect was that even when they were copying books, they weren't really stopping. They were really competing with each other, and for the past two nights they were studying so hard that they finished the punishment given by Princess Ping in less than three days.
Of course, this comes at a price.
The two of them barely slept for the past two days, staying up extremely late at night. The dark circles around their eyes became increasingly pronounced, and by the morning of the third day, even pearl powder couldn't cover them up.
Jiang Xuelin almost couldn't get up in the morning, which was quite rare. She struggled for a while before dragging her sleepy body out of bed.
She couldn't rest today. She had to do things as usual and not let Fu Han find out anything was wrong. She waited until all her tasks were completed before she went to rest last night, so after breakfast, she could just send the copied book to Princess Ping.
Of course, this should be sent secretly, so there's no need to tell Fu Han.
Fu Hanlai was also very tired.
His task was even more demanding than Jiang Xuelin's. Looking at Jiang Xuelin's expression and thinking about how he had been sleeping even later than Jiang Xuelin these past few days, he was certain that he would do a better job than Jiang Xuelin. He felt a little smug.
During the meal, he even gave Jiang Xuelin a subtle yet smug look.
Just wait and see.
He definitely won this round.
After finishing her meal, Jiang Xuelin quickly left, citing the need to check on her dowry, leaving Fu Hanlai alone.
Fu Hanlai had originally wanted to find some excuse, but now that Jiang Xuelin had left, it was just right. He hastily finished the bird's nest porridge in his bowl, got up and went to the study excitedly. He put the copied book into a box, which Kang Tai carried, and they headed towards the main courtyard.
Then, at the main gate, he saw Jiang Xuelin leading Green Ivy.
Green Ivy was also holding a wooden box in her hands.
The wooden box wasn't very big, but it could still fit two books.
Jiang Xuelin: "..."
Fu Hanlai: "..."
Princess Ping, who was inside and heard that the two had come again, was speechless.
well.
