Fu Hanlai: "..."
"...I said, why don't you beg me? Maybe I'll agree."
"don't want!"
Fu Hanlai: "..."
After a while, seeing that Jiang Xuelin was almost asleep, Fu Hanlai was now scratching his head in frustration. So he spoke again, "This young master is magnanimous. If you say something nice, I will agree to your request. How about it?"
Jiang Xuelin: "Get lost."
Fu Hanlai: "..."
He was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
What an ungrateful girl! He's already said that!
Pooh!
Green Ivy, who had been watching the two's conversation the whole time: "..."
Why am I inside the carriage instead of outside like Kangtai?
Fu Hanlai, having been rebuffed, stopped talking and, like Jiang Xuelin, closed his eyes to rest.
Seeing that Jiang Xuelin had fallen asleep, Green Ivy covered her with the blanket she had prepared beforehand, and then quietly waited by her side.
The carriage slowly returned to the gate of the villa. The guards checked the carriage and, having received a reminder from above, let the people in without disturbing them further.
"Young Master, we've arrived at the courtyard." Green Ivy gently woke Fu Hanlai as they reached the entrance.
She didn't wake Jiang Xuelin, who was still sleeping next to her.
Fu Hanlai opened his eyes and quickly became awake. He then noticed that Jiang Xuelin was still asleep, and looked at Green Ivy: "..."
Green Ivy looked at Fu Hanlai with a forced smile: "..."
"Tch, your master doesn't need me to go to all this trouble, why should I? Hurry up and tell your master to get up." After a moment of silence, Fu Hanlai said irritably, then lifted the curtain and jumped off the carriage.
Seeing that Fu Hanlai had already left, Green Luo hesitated whether to wake Jiang Xuelin.
Green Ivy felt sorry for them, knowing they had been traveling so long and tiring. Even if the girls were healthy, they shouldn't have gone through all this trouble; they were clearly exhausted these past two days.
But she wasn't strong enough to carry or hold the girl, and the young master had already left, unless she went to call Hongluo out.
Fu Hanlai was already waiting under the carriage. After standing there for a moment, he lifted the carriage curtain again under Kang Tai's questioning gaze.
"..."
He knew that Green Ivy, this loyal maid, wouldn't wake her mistress.
Tsk!
Seeing Fu Han return, Green Ivy's eyes immediately lit up.
With a stern face, Fu Hanlai climbed into the carriage, put one arm around Jiang Xuelin's knees, and the other arm around her back. Then, he used both arms to lift Jiang Xuelin, who was sleeping like a little pig.
To be fair, Jiang Xuelin is really not heavy.
Green Ivy had already gotten off the carriage, still holding the blanket that Jiang Xuelin had been covering herself with in her hand, and pulling on the carriage curtain with her other hand so that Fu Han could carry Jiang Xuelin out.
Fu Hanlai glared at Luoluo, then carried Jiang Xuelin off the carriage. As soon as they landed, Luoluo draped the blanket over Jiang Xuelin again, seemingly worried that the night was late and the dew was heavy, and that Jiang Xuelin might catch a chill.
“When your master wakes up, you’ll have to testify for me that I’m not as useless as she thinks.”
Holding someone in his arms, Fu Hanlai lowered his voice, glanced at Green Ivy, and then walked into the yard.
"Yes, yes, yes, when the Princess Consort wakes up, this servant will definitely testify for the Prince."
Putting everything else aside, as long as we don't wake the girl up and let her rest well, that's fine.
Fu Hanlai was full of resentment and wanted to shake the person sleeping soundly in his arms awake, but after looking down at him, he gave up the idea.
"...You got off easy! This young master is magnanimous and won't hold it against you!"
Red Luo in the yard had been waiting for a while. She was startled when she saw Jiang Xuelin being carried back by Fu Hanlai. She was pulled back by Green Luo and then realized what was going on. She immediately followed them into the house to tidy up.
Even after her outer garment was removed and the jewelry on her head was taken off, Jiang Xuelin only turned over and did not wake up, clearly exhausted.
Hongluo covered Jiang Xuelin with the blanket before tiptoeing out the door.
"What's wrong with you today, young lady? Why are you sleeping so soundly?"
"I didn't sleep well last night, and I haven't been able to rest all day today, so I'm exhausted. It hasn't been easy getting here." Green Ivy said in a low voice, sounding tired herself.
Hongluo initially found it strange, but after Luoluo's explanation, she felt it made sense. She then told them about what the Marquis of Jing'an and the Princess Consort of Ping had told them that day, and that she would inform Jiang Xuelin and Fu Han when they woke up.
Fu Hanlai quickly washed up and lay down.
He had just lain down when the person sleeping soundly next to him moved closer, their warm body pressed against him, and their arm draped over him.
"...Tsk, when you wake up tomorrow, you'll have to thank me. Don't be the heartless one."
After muttering to himself, Fu Hanlai quickly went to sleep.
He's tired too!
As a result, he felt as if he had just closed his eyes when Jiang Xuelin next to him woke him up.
…………
Jiang Xuelin slept very well, but unfortunately, because she was worried about eating too much at night, she ate a little less and got hungry in the middle of the night. When she opened her eyes and found herself lying in bed, she immediately understood what had happened.
At this moment, Fu Hanlai was unaware that the other person on the bed had already woken up.
I'm so hungry.
I'm craving something with a strong flavor, like sweet, sour, spicy, or numbing.
Thinking of the Mapo Tofu she ate last night, Jiang Xuelin couldn't help but swallow.
No, it's getting late. If I go out now, I don't know when I'll be able to eat. She's very hungry right now and just wants to eat something to fill her stomach.
