Chapter 111 - 111 Harboring Love
111 Harboring Love
“Young Master, Miss Su is here.”
Chang Ping reported from outside the door.
Ever since Su Xiaoxiao complained about him, he didn’t dare to disrespect Su Xiaoxiao in front of Young Master. Therefore, when he heard that Su Xiaoxiao was here, he immediately came over to inform Young Master.
Jing Yi was slightly stunned and looked at his cousin. “You asked her to come?”
Young Master Xiang smiled and said, “If I don’t invite her, won’t you be able to give away your gift?”
Jing Yi frowned.
Young Master Xiang sighed. “It’s a pity that she has a husband.”
Jing Yi said, “It’s just a thank-you gift. Cousin, are you thinking too much?”
“Alright, I’m thinking too much.” Young Master Xiang smiled at Jing Yi and turned to the long man. “Why are you standing there? Hurry up and invite Miss Su in.”
Chang Ping hurriedly turned around and left the courtyard.
Liu Ping also followed the two of them in. In the future, he would be in charge of the academy’s business.
Liu Ping’s mood today was like a swing—business was booming and he was happy! He was threatened by Jin Ji and was disappointed! Did they have business with the academy too? How shocking!
To ordinary people, the academy was much more sacred than Jin Ji. It was filled with scholars. People could not enter just because they were rich.
What was the saying?
All things were inferior except for reading. It could be seen how respected scholars were.
“Miss Su, please,” Chang Ping said.
Su Xiaoxiao followed Chang Ping to Young Master Xiang’s room. Liu Ping and Su Ergou stayed in the small study.
Su Ergou had probably come here to catch up on his sleep. The moment he entered the house, he started to feel sleepy.
He touched his pouch.
Eh? Where was his Ergou Pancake?
Oh, he remembered. The last pancake had been robbed by the old man at the back door.
Su Ergou smacked his lips and lay down on the chair to sleep!
Liu Ping was a little uneasy. He sat upright for a moment and felt strange. He couldn’t help but stand up and walk away.
He looked at this vase and then at the calligraphy painting.
It was unbelievable that he could enter the academy in his lifetime!
“You’re Brother Liu, right?”
A pageboy walked in with a smile.
“Ah, I am!” Liu Ping immediately tensed up as if he had been caught red-handed.
The servant entered with a cup of tea. “Brother Liu, have some tea.”
Liu Ping hurriedly said, “Ah, no, you don’t have to be so polite.”
The servant said amiably, “Brother Liu, you don’t have to be polite with me. My young master said that we have to treat the person Miss Su brought over well. The dean has the same intention.”
Liu Ping had just sat down when he heard this and stood up in shock. “Dean?”
The servant smiled and said, “That’s right. This is the dean’s courtyard. He’s teaching students now.”
Liu Ping’s legs went weak!
Damn!
He had entered the dean’s residence!
The servant said politely, “Miss Su just told me that you will be the one to deliver the goods in the future. My young master is about to go to the prefecture to study. You can look for me for business. My name is Zhou Xing.”
“Hey!” Liu Ping said, “Little Brother Zhou.”
Zhou Xing smiled and said, “Brother Liu, don’t be so polite. If my young master hears this, he will punish me. Brother Liu, sit for a while. I’ll go check the list.”
Zhou Xing left.
Liu Ping could not calm down for a long time.
It was one thing to hear that Daya had a relationship with Young Master Shen, but it was another to feel it personally.
He was just a farmer. Even if the other party was a servant, he was still the dean’s trusted aide. Why was he being polite to him?
Wasn’t it all because of her?
Daya was amazing!
He had followed the right person!
….
“Your pulse is gentle and strong. It’s neither floating nor sinking. Your rhythm is neat. You’re recovering well. You don’t have to take any more medicine.”
Su Xiaoxiao retracted her hand.
Young Master Xiang sat on the chair and lowered his elegant and exquisite cuffs with a smile. He said to Su Xiaoxiao, “Miss Su’s medical skills are brilliant. You must have had an extremely good year.”
“Huh?” Su Xiaoxiao didn’t understand why he said that.
Young Master Xiang smiled warmly. “You look good.”
Su Xiaoxiao thought he could just praise her for becoming beautiful!
Su Xiaoxiao looked around. “Eh? Why don’t I see Jing Yi?”
Young Master Xiang glanced at the door from the corner of his eye and couldn’t help but laugh. “Yes, he had been staying here all morning. When he heard that you were coming… ”
“Cousin!” Jing Yi walked in expressionlessly and glanced at Su Xiaoxiao, who was sitting beside Young Master Xiang. “Miss Su.”
“Oh, Jing Yi, you’ve grown taller!” Su Xiaoxiao’s sharp eyes noticed the change in him.
Jing Yi’s eyes flickered.
“In the past, you only came up here.” Su Xiaoxiao pointed at a small pattern on the door frame. “Now you’ve grown taller.”
