He Yunxiao felt a little regretful.
When he left the Fan residence yesterday, he forgot to ask Fan Ziruo which class she would have tomorrow.
Later, when he and Li Jin were eating plain noodles together, he was so engrossed in the meal that he forgot to ask Li Jin which period Mr. Yuhe's class was the next day.
I regret it now, I regret it so much.
If I had asked earlier, I wouldn't have had to get up so early, and I could have slept in.
Last night, He Yunxiao was reading martial arts novels very diligently!
This isn't what he wanted to see; it's all for the sake of the strategy! It's all for the greater good! It's all to save Fan Ziruo from Chu Xiaoxiao's clutches!
Even though, due to the era, the formulas of martial arts novels from the Qi Kingdom were quite rudimentary. Basically, He Yunxiao could predict the ending just by reading the beginning.
However, since there were really no other entertainment options besides martial arts novels, He Yunxiao had no choice but to grit his teeth and read them.
Later, he discovered that it was quite interesting to see how authors wrote about their flaws.
As long as my perspective is flexible enough, I can enjoy any kind of annoying plot point!
Staying up late and waking up early inevitably makes you a little groggy.
It wasn't until He Yunxiao realized he was almost late that he hurriedly got up, quickly washed up, and ran to catch the carriage.
Halfway there, He Yunxiao suddenly remembered that he hadn't brought the martial arts novel he had read last night to Fan Ziruo. He quickly turned back, went to his room, and grabbed the martial arts novel and martial arts manual.
Fortunately, the coachman was skilled enough to drive fast and managed to get He Yunxiao to the academy just as class was starting.
As soon as He Yunxiao entered the classroom, he suddenly realized that the first period was not Fan Ziruo's class.
Cao, you miscalculated.
I should have slept a little longer.
Taking advantage of the fact that not many people in the classroom were paying attention to him, He Yunxiao decided to sneak away quietly.
Li Jin, who had sat down early to prepare for studying, noticed He Yunxiao's lateness and waved to him.
"Brother He, this is a seat I've saved for you."
The scene immediately became awkward.
Everyone looked at He Yunxiao.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, He Yunxiao found himself in a dilemma.
Li Jin, you really don't do anything right!
He Yunxiao could criticize Li Jin, but he couldn't really get angry with Li Jin.
After all, who can blame a fool?
He Yunxiao abruptly asked, "Brother Li, have you eaten breakfast?"
Li Jin was a little confused by the question, and replied, "I ate."
What did you eat?
"Porridge."
Did they provide steamed buns?
"No."
He Yunxiao angrily retorted, "How can you eat porridge without steamed buns!"
Li Jin was taken aback by the question, but after thinking about it, he realized that it made sense. How could you eat porridge without steamed buns?
He Yunxiao said sternly, "Brother Li, wait here, I'll go buy you some steamed buns."
Upon hearing that there were steamed buns to eat, Li Jin exclaimed with delight, "Brother He is so generous!"
He Yunxiao said, "It's settled."
Then he turned around and left the classroom, disappearing without a trace.
Meng Yan couldn't stand it any longer and reminded Li Jin, "Li Jin, He Yunxiao didn't go to buy steamed buns; he skipped class."
Li Jin angrily retorted, "Meng Yan, what right do you have to slander my brother?"
Meng Yan: This kid is hopeless.
Meng Yan: Wait a minute, why would I think he was once saved?
...
After sneaking out of the classroom, He Yunxiao suddenly realized that he had another tricky problem.
I took too many books.
He was in a rush when he left home this morning, and he also took a few martial arts novels that he shouldn't have.
Ziruo mustn't see this!
What if she misunderstands and thinks I'm not serious?
Wouldn't the favorability rating drop like rain?
He Yunxiao walked along the road from the academy classroom to the Fan residence. After walking halfway, he thought for a moment, then took a slightly longer route and ventured into the quiet garden of the academy.
Even though He Yunxiao is now a regular at the academy, the gardens within the academy are still quite a challenging maze for him.
After going around in circles, He Yunxiao finally managed to reach the place where he had met the girl who had been seeking medicine, thanks to his speed and the distance he had covered last time.
This place is secluded, with iconic fruit trees, making it a hard-to-find, hidden, yet landmark location.
In short, it's excellent for hiding things.
He Yunxiao came to the fruit tree, but instead of touching the one where the antidote girl had buried the bad fruit, he found another one, the one where the antidote girl had shaken the fruit.
He took out three novels that Ziruo couldn't read, wrapped them tightly in two handkerchiefs, dug a hole under a tree, and buried the books.
Both of these are new handkerchiefs.
As for the handkerchiefs used by Sister Du and the antidote girl, He Yunxiao had already found a box for them, put them away separately, and kept them as a keepsake.
They even wrote down the usage and origin on a piece of paper, just in case they forgot it later.
Just kidding, this is a precious record of the progress of our relationship.
For the girl who needed the antidote, the handkerchief had another purpose: it was something she could use to tease and see her blush with shyness.
The more He Yunxiao used it, the more he realized that the handkerchief was actually quite practical.
Putting everything else aside, just considering these two measures taken to wrap the book today, they both protected the novel and salvaged his public image.
Under normal circumstances, He Yunxiao would choose to bring a handkerchief with good absorbency.
Practicality is the primary consideration; style is secondary.
Because no one else has the chance to see this except myself.
Besides, the essence of a handkerchief lies not in the handkerchief itself, but in what is attached to it.
The handkerchief master is one of them.
After burying the novel, He Yunxiao stood up, patted the dirt off his hands, picked up the remaining books, carried the book box, and set off again for the study in the Fan family mansion.
After He Yunxiao had completely gone far away, Princess Xiaoyue's personal bodyguard, Jian Ling, a female swordswoman with the strength of the ninth rank peak, jumped down from a lush tree with thick branches not far away.
