Yu Tanqi was decisive and happy when he made up his mind, but when he was woken up by Linlang before dawn the next morning, he was completely confused.
She stared blankly at the window, her consciousness still hazy. "It's not even daybreak yet, why are you waking me up..."
Linlang was also very sleepy. She yawned and said, "Dawns come late in winter. It's already 4:45 in the morning. Miss, didn't you say that starting today, you would get up early for morning exercises with the prince?"
"It's only the morning of the 11th... Don't worry, get up later..." Yu Tanqi closed his eyes and was about to fall asleep.
Linlang was a maid who obeyed her master very well. She had always remembered Yu Tanqi's instructions before he fell asleep yesterday, and whispered in her ear: "Miss, you told the prince yesterday that if he didn't wait for you before noon, he would not let you eat sweets for a month."
Yu Tanqi opened his eyes immediately.
"no!"
There isn't much she can eat now, and if she can't eat sweets anymore, what's the point of living?
"Help me get dressed and wash up."
There are eight quarters in an hour. Yu Tanqi finally struggled to get up at five quarters of an hour. He spent three quarters of an hour getting dressed, washing, and combing his hair. He barely arrived at the gate of Luqi Courtyard before noon to meet Jiang Shi.
It was quiet in the early morning after the snow.
Everything in the world was a crystal white, and clear icicles hung on the branches, which was very beautiful.
The servants of the Marquis' Mansion were clearing the ice and snow on the ground early yesterday morning, and had cleared the path that the master often walked.
Jiang Shi was still wearing a long green robe, his back straight, like a lone pine tree standing tall and green in the cold wind.
Yu Tanqi wished he could wrap himself up like a dumpling, holding a hot water bottle in his hand.
She trotted up to Jiang Shi and her first words were, "I arrived before Chenshi." I wasn't late, so they couldn't stop me from having sweets.
Jiang Shi looked at her rosy little face and curled his lips. "The ground is slippery. You don't have to rush over here."
Yu Tanqi blinked her eyes. How could she not be anxious? Most snacks in ancient times were sweet, and she had to keep the only sweet thing she could eat.
"Let's go for morning exercise."
This was Yu Tanqi's first time coming to the training ground of Wu'an Marquis Mansion.
The venue is very large, and most of it is open air.
There is a large platform in the middle, on which are placed two rows of weapons. Whether it is swords, guns or bows and arrows, they all have different degrees of oldness, and it can be seen at a glance that they are often used.
Who would have thought that although Jiang Shi looked thin and weak, he could actually use any weapon, and his archery skills had been practiced to the point where he could hit the target every time.
Yu Tanqi glanced at it for a few seconds before looking away, focusing on the track. "How long will we run?"
Jiang Shi looked at her pink little face and said, "This is your first morning exercise, so let's take it slow. Let's run for half an hour today."
"Isn't half a quarter of an hour too short?" Yu Tanqi remembered that when he was in school, he had to run 800 meters every day, which took him at least ten minutes to finish.
She was weak and was out of breath when she ran the first lap. After running two laps with great difficulty, she was exhausted.
It is not good to have a too delicate body. Once you encounter any danger, you won’t be able to escape.
Jiang Shi also knew that Yu Tanqi was too fragile and had thought about helping her exercise, but he felt sorry for her as she had been seriously injured not long ago. If he rashly started practicing martial arts, he was afraid that the wound would split open and leave her with an incurable hidden disease.
But since Yu Tanqi took the initiative to suggest exercising, he naturally wouldn't refuse her.
He went to sleep yesterday after carefully planning how to help her exercise.
"Your shoulder wound hasn't healed completely yet, so take your time. Once you feel running for half a quarter of an hour won't tire you out, then it won't be too late to add another half a quarter of an hour."
Yu Tanqi had been living so comfortably these days that he almost forgot that his shoulder was injured.
"Okay then, I'll run for half an hour first."
Yu Tanqi ran for half a quarter of an hour, and Jiang Shi also ran with her for half a quarter of an hour.
She walked very slowly, and Jiang Shi stayed by her side without rushing her.
Danqing and the others watched from the side and could not help but say: "Miss Yu's speed, even if I walk a little faster, I will still be faster than her."
The master doesn't usually run this slowly.
Dan Hua said coldly, "Do you think everyone is like you, walking as fast as if there's a dog chasing you?"
Danqing snorted: "I'm so fast because you're chasing me."
Dan Hua glared at him: "What do you mean by that? Are you calling me a dog?"
Danqing felt something was wrong and quickly moved away from her: "I didn't say that, you said it yourself."
"Heh." Dan Hua sneered and immediately caught up with him.
Linlang was stunned and said hesitantly, "Don't fight..."
"Don't worry, I just haven't practiced with him for a long time, and now I want to have a good practice with him." Dan Hua said.
Linlang looked at them half-believingly and found that Danqing was running very fast. When Danhua was about to touch him, his figure flashed and suddenly appeared somewhere else.
The two of them were interacting with each other, neither of them giving in.
Linlang was amazed. "Is this the legendary martial arts? So powerful."
She was a little envious.
After confirming that the brother and sister were really sparring and not fighting, Linlang looked at Yu Tanqi and Jiang Shi again.
Different from the tense atmosphere between Danqing and Danhua, Yu Tanqi and Jiang Shi were jogging side by side. Jiang Shi controlled his speed, without blushing or panting, and looked contented.
Yu Tanqi started to pant after running for a while, and her fair cheeks soon turned red.
This body is really fragile.
Yu Tanqi instantly regretted his bold promise to do morning exercises to lose weight and keep fit.
She still prefers to lie down comfortably and enjoy herself.
Yu Tanqi gritted his teeth slightly and turned to look at Jiang Shi beside him.
The boy's face was as white as jade, his back was still straight, he was as calm and composed as if he was strolling in the garden, without a trace of fatigue.
Feeling her gaze, Jiang Shi tilted his head slightly, his eyes falling on her slightly parted soft red lips. His eyes were startled for a moment, then he curved his lips and said gently with concern: "Tan Qi, do you want to stop and rest for a while?"
Yu Tanqi gritted his teeth and turned his head away, "No, I can still run."
For the sake of beauty, she must persevere.
She didn't want Jiang Shi to still be as tall and handsome as a bamboo next summer, while she would really become as plump and beautiful as a jade. If the two of them stood together, no one would say that they were a perfect match.
Round and smooth is naturally a good word, and which girl doesn't like to look more beautiful?
Yu Tanqi slightly opened her red lips and gasped uncontrollably. Occasionally, she extended her pink tongue and gently licked her lips, making them more moist and red.
Jiang Shi looked at her, his eyes uncontrollably falling on her pink red lips.
The girl's tongue is small and as delicate as a flower stamen.
His throat rolled and his black eyes darkened.
