Chapter 173 The Confused Ashou



Absolutely not excessive.

so……

She reached out and pinched Fu Hanlai's nose.

Fu Hanlai, who was sleeping soundly, couldn't breathe through his nose. Even in his sleep, he couldn't help but frown and shake his head, trying to shake off the thing blocking his nose, but unfortunately, he couldn't.

How could Jiang Xuelin possibly let him succeed!

Unable to breathe through his nose, Fu Hanlai's tightly closed eyes twitched, as if he were about to wake up. But the next moment, he opened his mouth and breathed softly through it.

Jiang Xuelin: "..."

Tsk.

no.

Seeing that this tactic was ineffective, Jiang Xuelin simply withdrew her hand from pinching Fu Hanlai's nose and instead pushed him.

Jiang Xuelin nudged Fu Hanlai through the brocade quilt, but the soundly sleeping man didn't move at all. Jiang Xuelin continued to push him tirelessly, shaking him occasionally, until she finally woke him up.

Unfortunately, Fu Hanlai is different from Jiang Xuelin. Jiang Xuelin reacts too quickly; she is fully conscious the moment she opens her eyes, but Fu Hanlai is not.

When he first opened his eyes, his consciousness was in a hazy, confused state.

So he just opened his hazy eyes and looked at Jiang Xuelin, which made him look a little silly.

"Hey Fu Ashou, is there something else you haven't done?"

Fu Hanlai didn't know what was going on, but suddenly felt that this scene was somewhat familiar, as if it had just happened not long ago. His body acted faster than his brain. Since the same situation had happened before, his body would naturally follow the previous experience and continue to do so.

Jiang Xuelin had a mischievous smile on her face. She was about to say that she had been sleeping soundly during the day but was woken up by Fu Hanlai. Now that Fu Hanlai was sleeping soundly, she naturally had to wake him up as well.

She was prepared for Fu Han to lose his temper, and she had already thought of what to say back.

As a result, Fu Hanlai just slowly leaned over and gave Jiang Xuelin a sticky kiss on the face.

And it seemed that because he was still half asleep, he wanted to kiss Jiang Xuelin on the face, but his consciousness was a little hazy, so the kiss ended up landing directly on the corner of Jiang Xuelin's mouth.

After kissing her, Fu Hanlai still didn't realize what he had done. He obediently wrapped himself back in the blanket, closed his eyes, and lay down, leaving Jiang Xuelin staring at him with open eyes.

Jiang Xuelin: "..."

I wanted to wake him up again.

But looking at Fu Hanlai's sleeping face, she sat up straight, feeling a little bored. She didn't stay there any longer, touched the corner of her mouth that had been kissed, and then lay down as well.

...Never mind, she won't hold it against him. She's not as petty as him; she doesn't have to wake him up.

The next morning, Jiang Xuelin got up early as usual. Thinking that she hadn't trained the day before, she got out of bed, changed into her workout clothes, and simply tied her hair up before heading to the training ground.

The commotion woke Fu Hanlai. He now gets up on time almost every day, sometimes even earlier than Jiang Xuelin, just to have more time to practice and defeat Jiang Xuelin in his area of ​​expertise as soon as possible. So he tends to wake up around the same time.

Yesterday doesn't count; that was a special case.

Seeing that he had also gotten up, Jiang Xuelin didn't rush to leave, but stood by with her arms crossed, waiting.

Fu Hanlai had no recollection of what he had done after falling asleep. After getting dressed, he excitedly followed Jiang Xue out the door.

Jiang Xuelin excels at this, and he must defeat him!

Constant dripping wears away a stone; he can definitely do it!

...

Princess Ping is especially busy at the end of the year, with social obligations to various families and meetings with managers and shopkeepers outside. These things happen every year. It wasn't until now, with only one day left until the New Year, that she finally had some free time and could finally enjoy a proper New Year.

This is the first year of a new addition to their Prince Ping's household, so naturally it should be a grand celebration. However, since they are going to the palace tomorrow, the family banquet will be held in the evening. She was somewhat surprised to hear that Fu Hanlai and Jiang Xuelin were coming hand in hand.

I didn't think they would come today.

Anyway, Princess Ping gave these two troublemakers plenty of freedom. It didn't matter if the couple didn't come to pay their respects, and she could have some peace and quiet.

Of course, it'll be lively here too.

Unlike other mothers-in-law who try to establish rules for their daughters-in-law every day to solidify their own position in the household, she was content as long as the couple lived their lives peacefully and didn't cause her any trouble.

"I heard you didn't come out yesterday?"

Previously, Princess Ping had a good grasp of Qiutang Courtyard, but ever since Fu Hanlai and Jiang Xuelin got married, she took the initiative to withdraw everyone and handed the small courtyard over to the young couple to manage, clearly indicating that she would not interfere.

This also meant that all she knew was that the two of them hadn't left Qiutang Courtyard all day yesterday, but she had no idea what they were doing.

"...Cough, it's nothing. It's just that it's the end of the year and there's not much to do. It's a bit cold, so my son doesn't want to go out and wants to take a rare afternoon nap."

This sounded perfectly reasonable, but Princess Ping felt something was off about it, though she didn't press the matter further.

As I said before, the only requirement for this couple is that they don't cause trouble.

That's all.

"You haven't gotten sick at all this winter, but be careful these next few days and don't catch a chill."

The three talked for a while. Princess Ping kept Jiang Xuelin behind and told Fu Hanlai to go back first. She talked to Jiang Xuelin for a while about the taboos of entering the palace the next day before letting her go.
