Chapter 181 - Snack Time
Standing there, General Lin felt that it was strange that Hei Yao would be angry. ‘If I don’t address her as princess consort, then how should I address her? Since the Emperor has already made a decree, how else should I address her?
What’s more, she seems like a capable woman. She can most definitely be a good match for His Highness Li Prince.
Although her face is ruined, with a few beautifying pills her beauty would surely be restored.’
Unable to figure out why Hei Yao was mad, General Lin went back to the barracks to take care of matters.
As Hei Yao still simmered in his thoughts, Xiao Jiuyuan and Yun Qianyu were well on their way to Galan Academy.
The reason why Xiao Jiuyuan wanted to bring Yun Qianyu to Galan Academy was because there was equipment there that could examine a person’s spirit energy level. Although Yun Qianyu had innate spirit energy, she didn’t know what grade her innate spirit energy was. Only after measuring the grade of her innate spirit energy could she choose a corresponding spirit energy evoking manual.
Xiao Jiuyuan looked at Yun Qianyu and said, “When we arrive at the gates of the academy, don’t speak.”
The Galan Academy was very strict with its ban on women entering the academy. Although Xiao Jiuyuan was royalty and very powerful, it would still tarnish his image if people saw him bringing a woman into the academy.
Yun Qianyu nodded obediently without saying anything.
Out of nowhere, Yun Qianyu’s stomach suddenly rumbled audibly. The fact was that she hadn’t eaten anything the whole day.
Feeling extremely ashamed, Yun Qianyu wanted to immediately hide somewhere. ‘Why would my stomach rumble at such a time, especially when I’m sitting beside this sarcastic as*hole!’
Thinking about this, Yun Qianyu didn’t dare look toward Xiao Jiuyuan, and only waited for his sarcastic remarks.
However, after riding for a while in silence without hearing anything from him, curiosity got the better of Yun Qianyu and she couldn’t help but look up. She then saw that Xiao Jiuyuan had taken out some snacks from a drawer and, after placing them on a plate, he offered them to her saying “Hungry? Have some snacks.”
Dumbfounded by his offer, Yun Qianyu thought, ‘This man is so capricious. Sometimes when I think he will be angry and sarcastic, he turns around and becomes very kind. Sometimes for no obvious reason, he will become cold and furious. This man really is unpredictable.’
However, when she saw the plate of food, she became even hungrier. Looking toward Xiao Jiuyuan, Yun Qianyu saw that he was just reading a book and didn’t pay her any attention.
Feeling at ease, she reached out for a snack and began to eat it. Slowly, she calmed down and began looking at the interior of the carriage while eating.
‘This carriage really has Xiao Jiuyuan written all over it.’ Even though the exterior of the carriage looked quite normal, the interior was extremely luxurious. The body of the carriage was made of precious red sandalwood giving off a faint fragrance. The four corners of the ceiling were inlaid with luminous pearls, which radiated a bright light. Aside from the decorations, the carriage was also packed with books and some snacks.
‘This guy really knows how to enjoy life.’ While thinking about it, Yun Qianyu gently lifted the veil covering her face to be able to eat. Although her movements were elegant, having a veil was a hindrance when she was eating.
Even though it was bothersome, she did not remove her veil.
Sitting across from her, Xiao Jiuyuan became a little annoyed by her actions, “Isn’t it inconvenient for you to eat that way?”
