Ahri turned to look at the gray rabbit running on the ground, but it wasn't an ordinary rabbit.
Seeing that Ah Li neither accepted nor refused, Li Haihuai felt very uncomfortable. He hugged the rabbit and lowered his eyes slightly. "Sorry, I just remembered that I have something to do. I'll go first."
Li Haihuai seemed to be fleeing in panic, or perhaps angry with himself for acting too strangely today.
Ahri looked at the vegetable basket, which contained carrots and some fresh leafy greens. This person was interested in her.
To her, Li Haihuai was like a martial arts teacher at the academy. Every time she attended his class, she followed the rules and did not do anything out of line, but he always paid more attention to her than to others.
Sometimes, he would pass by when she was taking her piano lesson.
If someone goes to the back mountain to play the piano, or finds a place where they won't disturb others to practice, this person will coincidentally appear.
Over time, the two became acquainted.
Li Haihuai once bluntly stated, "I like your piano playing."
There are so many people in the world who can play the piano, but he only feels the touch of her music.
When he said this, Ahri immediately noticed his bright eyes, long eyelashes, and the light pink tint at the corners of his eyes, which made her heart flutter for a moment.
He also has a pair of peach blossom eyes that look at dogs with deep affection.
The little gray rabbit came over, drawn by the smell of fresh vegetable leaves. Ahri stroked its soft fur, thinking, "Let's talk about other things when the rabbit turns white."
?
The results were released three days later.
The top scholar in the imperial examination was Xiao Wanli, and her articles were posted on the bulletin board.
Wu Ningde noticed the words immediately. He also heard someone shout to the female student standing at the back of the crowd, holding a gray rabbit: "Xiao Wanli, you're number one! You're amazing!"
It was her, Xiao Wanli.
He recognized her handwriting.
The little gray rabbit's fur had lightened a bit; at that time, she was only in the top ten, not at the top.
Now, she has helped her achieve it.
Yang Cuie froze. Her ranking was at the very bottom, and her heart began to race uncontrollably. She looked at Wu Ningde, who recognized her handwriting and knew her name. Did everything she had done during this time still have any meaning?
Ah Li thanked everyone who offered their congratulations. She looked towards Wu Ningde, whose ranking was second, the runner-up.
All those who passed the examination this time were eligible to participate in the imperial examination to be held in the capital the following year.
This is something everyone knows perfectly well.
When Wu Ningde saw Ah Li turn and leave, he quickly followed.
However, when he caught up with them, he saw Li Haihuai carrying a medicine bag and walking with Ali. The two were talking about something, Li Haihuai looked worried, and Xiao Wanli looked like she wanted to say something but couldn't.
He knew Li Haihuai; he was the young marquis of the Li family who had been away from home for many years.
Wu Ningde stopped in his tracks; it wasn't a good time to go up now.
Furthermore, he wanted to find all their previous letters and give her a surprise.
I wonder how she will react when she finds out that her pen pal all these years is him, and that he is also a prince. Will she be overjoyed and love him madly?
Wu Ningde left with beautiful dreams for the future.
?
Ah Li, holding the little gray rabbit, looked at Li Haihuai speechlessly.
Li Haihuai continued, "I asked the doctor, and he said that it's normal for rabbits to shed fur, but if the color of the fur changes from black to gray, it might be sick or old. I also asked him to prescribe some medicine."
Ali said with a forced smile, "My rabbit is fine, thank you for your concern, Mr. Li."
Li Haihuai's gaze involuntarily fell on the rabbit in Ali's arms. The rabbit's fur seemed to have become even lighter in color, which was really strange.
At this moment, the rabbit stood up with its two front paws on Ahri's chest and sniffed Ahri's chin.
Her area wasn't dented; on the contrary, its shape was even more pronounced.
So beautiful... no!
Do not look at what is improper!
Li Haihuai hurriedly looked away and said, "I'm sorry."
But the scene from just now seemed to still be in his mind's eye: a faint red tinge was visible beneath the blue student's robes.
The item was a woman's undergarment.
Li Haihuai hurriedly left again with the medicine bag. He couldn't stay any longer because his mind was no longer pure.
Ahri hugged the rabbit back to her chest and whispered, "That person didn't bring you any fresh vegetables today, but they did bring you medicine. Do you want some?"
Rabbits rarely make noise, but now they've started squeaking, which she finds offensive.
Ahri patted the rabbit's head and took it back.
When they returned, Ah Li saw Yang Cuie burning something, which looked like a few pieces of waste paper.
Yang Cuie's eyes were very red, whether from the smoke or something else.
She noticed that Ah Li had returned. She threw all the scraps of paper in her hand into the brazier and said sarcastically, "Xiao Wanli, you've been hiding your strength all this time, just waiting to make a name for yourself today."
Ahri put the rabbit down, looked at the burning firelight, and replied, "Yes, we've been waiting for this day to make a name for ourselves."
The female students in the same study room peeked out, sensing that the two people in front of them seemed to be up to something.
Ah Li withdrew her gaze, because Yang Cuie had now shrunk back again, and was saying perfunctorily, "Then congratulations."
Yang Cuie stared at the brazier in front of her, feeling increasingly aggrieved and frustrated. She had practiced her calligraphy for so long, and was about to make it resemble Xiao Wanli's, but in the end, it was all for naught.
That person must have already guessed and knew that she was their pen pal all these years.
The thought that Wu Ningde had left with Xiao Wanli made Yang Cuie's heart ache terribly.
