Chapter 512 Extra - I am terrified
Chen Ci didn't even lift his eyelids: "Talking in your sleep."
Shu Tong: "..."
He's talking nonsense.
Who talks in their sleep with dialogue?!
This clearly shows he doesn't want to talk to her.
snort.
Shu Tong sullenly leaned back in her chair and then closed her eyes.
Can't someone take a nap?
After waiting for a long time without hearing Shu Tong speak, Chen Ci opened his eyes and saw Shu Tong resting with her eyes closed, which left him speechless for a moment.
However, from his angle, he could see her rather thick eyebrows and eyelashes, just like he had seen her that day when she was sleeping on the table under the swing set.
Long, thick, and beautifully tight.
Chen Ci didn't know if Shu Tong was asleep or thinking about something happy, but he saw that the corner of her lips twitched slightly, and her face instantly brightened up.
Chen Ci raised an eyebrow slightly, then closed his eyes again.
...
The carriage entered the Crown Prince's residence. Shu Tong and Haitang returned to Wutong Residence, while Chen Ci and Tang Ming went directly to Chengqian Palace.
"Draft a notice and read it aloud in each courtyard. The opening ceremony of the sports meet at the Ling Prince's mansion has not yet been determined. Anyone who can provide the ceremony will be rewarded with money. If it catches the eye of the Ling Prince, he will be rewarded with two hundred gold coins."
"Two hundred gold coins?" Tang Ming was shocked. "That's too much, Your Highness."
Chen Ci gave him a look that said, "You're teaching me how to do things," and Tang Ming quickly agreed, "Okay, I'll get on it right away."
Chen Ci nodded: "No rush, it can be read out first thing tomorrow morning."
He was giving Shu Tong some time to see if she would come to him during this period to volunteer or inquire whether he had taken on the job.
Unexpectedly, Shu Tong never came.
It wasn't that Shu Tong didn't want to come; it was just that she didn't want His Highness the Crown Prince to notice her unusual behavior.
So she kept it to herself until the next morning, when she heard the announcement being read out while she was having breakfast. She was so shocked that she almost dropped the bowl of porridge in her hand.
"Two hundred gold coins?" Shu Tong asked to confirm, "Are you really going to give it to me?"
Tang Ming smiled and replied, "Of course, His Highness the Crown Prince personally agreed."
Shu Tong happily agreed: "Okay, I understand."
Two hundred gold coins is no small sum. Even if only one hundred gold coins were left for Haitang, she could live a life of comfort and ease in this world for a while.
It seems she doesn't need to think about any more ways to make money. As long as she gets these two hundred gold coins, she can focus on figuring out how to divorce His Highness the Crown Prince.
Thinking of this, she couldn't sit still any longer. She hurriedly ate a few mouthfuls of rice, and then spent another hour in the study reading through the outline of rituals that she had prepared beforehand.
Only then did they call Haitang and set off for Chengqian Palace.
When she arrived, the Crown Prince was practicing calligraphy in his study, so he invited her directly into the study, while Haitang and Tang Ming waited outside.
Chen Ci's pen didn't stop: "Did Liangyuan come here for something?"
Shu Tong curtsied and then said with a rather helpless tone, "Today, Tang Ming came to Wutong Residence to read out the proclamation issued by His Highness. I am truly terrified."
"Oh?" Chen Ci put his pen down on the shelf. "Why are you so apprehensive?"
Shu Tong said sincerely, "If Your Highness hadn't saved me that day, you wouldn't have missed Uncle Ling's banquet, and you wouldn't have had to take on the opening ceremony etiquette for the sports meet, and you wouldn't have had to go through all this trouble to write this notice."
Chen Ci thought for a moment and actually nodded: "That is indeed the case."
Shu Tong was speechless for a moment.
She had thought that His Highness the Crown Prince would at least offer her some words of comfort.
have to.
She's being naive again.
Before she could react, Chen Ci asked again, "So?"
