Everyone was stunned by Fu Hanlai's words, completely unexpected that he would say such a thing. The mute nanny who was gesturing was also stunned, looking at Jiang Xuelin and then at Fu Hanlai, not knowing what to do for a moment.
The servants all lowered their heads and dared not speak, for fear of attracting Fu Hanlai's attention.
Fu Hanlai realized what he had said only after he finished speaking, and immediately felt embarrassed. "...No, no, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that, that..."
He was at a loss for words.
Jiang Xuelin looked at him silently, not wanting to say anything at all. Then, with a headache, she turned around and waved her hand, signaling the mute nanny to quickly take his pulse and see if he still needed recuperation.
"...I'm perfectly fine, there's really no need for this." Her voice instantly dropped eight hundred degrees from its previous high pitch, clearly showing a hint of unease.
Jiang Xuelin was getting impatient. She felt that Fu Hanlai was being too slow, so she simply stepped forward and pressed him down, then signaled the mute nanny to come over and take his pulse.
Upon seeing this, the mute nanny quickly stepped forward and began to examine Fu Hanlai, ignoring his shouts.
She was also a little worried. She had heard that the young master had been weak since childhood. She was afraid that there might really be something wrong with him. After all, being weak could indeed have some impact on certain aspects of life. The mute nanny did not want her daughter's husband to be like that.
Wouldn't that be like living the life of a widow?
Fortunately, the final pulse diagnosis proved that her worries were unnecessary.
"Ah ah."
After taking a step back, the mute nanny began to gesture at Jiang Xuelin. The two had known each other for many years, and Jiang Xuelin understood the mute nanny very well. She quickly understood her gestures and breathed a sigh of relief knowing that Fu Hanlai was alright and there was no need to worry.
"It's good that you're alright. Thank you for your trouble, Granny."
The mute old woman shook her head and quickly left.
It seemed that Fu Hanlai was in a bad mood because of this misunderstanding, and he kept a sour face. If it were someone else, they might have been worried sick, but Jiang Xuelin was not the kind of person who would take Fu Hanlai's expression to heart, and just went about her business.
That night, Fu Hanlai behaved himself, with no thoughts in his mind. In fact, to prevent Jiang Xuelin from making a move, he wrapped himself in a quilt and rolled into the corner of the canopy bed, wishing there was another wall between them.
Jiang Xuelin: "..."
I don't really understand what she's thinking. She doesn't seem that fierce, does she? She looks like a respectable young woman who has been violated by thugs... no, like a respectable young husband.
Feeling that people were being unreasonable, Jiang Xuelin didn't want to say anything and went to bed to sleep.
When she woke up the next morning, she found that the person next to her had left.
As the servants entered one after another, Jiang Xuelin realized that Fu Hanlai had gotten up half an hour earlier than yesterday. Thinking back to how he used to need to be called before he would get up to go to the training ground to stretch his limbs, Jiang Xuelin couldn't help but wonder what was going on.
Fortunately, when Jiang Xue arrived at the martial arts arena, Fu Hanlai did not leave first. Instead, he was still there, sweating profusely, with his martial arts master accompanying him.
After reading it, Jiang Xuelin didn't disturb him. She planned to wait until the event was over before asking Fu Hanlai what he had been up to these past two days.
Today she has chosen a long spear.
Upon noticing the weapon Jiang Xuelin had chosen today, Master Wu couldn't help but pay attention.
Over the days, he also discovered that Jiang Xuelin almost never used the same weapon two days in a row, but rather used it randomly, with each day being different.
Fu Hanlai looked at Jiang Xuelin, who was a full half hour late, and felt a little smug—that's right! That's exactly it!
In the future, he will be more diligent and hardworking than Jiang Xuelin, practicing for one or two hours more every day. One day he will be able to beat Jiang Xuelin, and at that time he will definitely make Jiang Xuelin realize his mistakes!
Master Wu withdrew his gaze from Jiang Xuelin and, looking at Fu Hanlai's enthusiastic expression, couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.
The Crown Prince didn't say anything yesterday, but this morning he came over and asked him when he could suppress the Crown Princess and make her unable to continue being arrogant if he trained for one or two more hours than the Crown Princess every day.
Master Wu fell silent upon hearing this question.
when?
It's probably impossible in this lifetime, right?
The Crown Princess's strength is unmatched even by those of them who have undergone rigorous training since childhood, let alone someone like the Crown Prince.
Among others, the young master is already considered to be both scholarly and martial... no, he's already considered to be good at martial arts. But people are not afraid of anything else but comparison. He doesn't understand why the young master has to be compared to the young lady.
If the Crown Princess weren't a woman, she would definitely not be here now; she would already be brimming with merit.
However, seeing Fu Hanlai's expectant and questioning gaze, Master Wu couldn't tell the truth, so he went a little further.
"I think that if Your Highness can persevere and work hard regardless of the weather, you might succeed one day. However, such things are a matter of fate, and Your Highness need not force it."
Don't force it, you can't do it!
You're not cut out for this!
The Crown Princess's natural talent and aptitude are the envy of many, but these are gifts from her parents and cannot be obtained through mere envy.
Master Wu felt that adding an extra hour or two a day or two might not be a problem, but as time went on, given Fu Hanlai's personality, it was hard to say when he would be able to keep going. In the dead of winter, when water freezes instantly, Fu Hanlai couldn't possibly be like that.
Unfortunately, Master Wu was unaware that he was being too naive in this matter.
