Song Zhiyu and Si Xi were trembling with fear, their small fingers pointing at Yuan Yi, shivering as they said, "Th-that, um, I’m saying, so many people saw us come in together. If you cut me down, you won’t get away either!"
Yuan Yi took a small bottle from his pocket: "What are you afraid of, I have corpse dissolving liquid here, it’ll dissolve you instantly, and no one will find out."
Song Zhiyu’s eyes widened, his handsome face turning pale.
Co-corpse dissolving liquid?
This is a demon, carrying corpse dissolving liquid around, truly a harbinger of death, how terrifying.
Niu Pan’er saw Song Zhiyu’s face turn white and laughed, "Alright, why are you scaring him like that, he’s just a kid."
Yuan Yi snorted: "He insulted the Commandery Princess."
"I didn’t, I absolutely didn’t, I’m being wronged!" Song Zhiyu immediately defended himself, "When did I insult her, you’re spitting lies, accusing me falsely!"
Yuan Yi replied, not even blushing, "You didn’t say it out loud, you said it in your heart."
Song Zhiyu let out a cold chuckle, "Today I’ve learned, no matter how high the mountain, there’s always another higher one. When it comes to shamelessness, Yuan guard surpasses me, boo hoo hoo."
Si Xi covered his mouth, smiling apologetically at Yuan Yi: "Yuan guard, Commandery Princess, my fourth master got rejected for marriage, he’s in a bad mood, he wasn’t serious, just talking nonsense, he’s delirious!"
Oh dear, please stop talking, swords don’t have eyes, if you’re not afraid of them slitting your throat, you should be afraid they’ll slit your throat out of impulsiveness.
Yuan Yi rolled his eyes disdainfully, and sheathed his sword.
Niu Pan’er said, "Let him go, Yuan Yi was just teasing you guys, he likes teasing kids!"
After sitting back down, Niu Pan’er handed over a cup of tea, which Song Zhiyu took and stuck his tongue out at Yuan Yi.
To hell with teasing kids, what kind of kid when you’re soon to get married? This is a brat!
Song Zhiyu drank the tea, and said, "Well, I didn’t mean anything by it, you’re a grand Commandery Princess of first rank, just like a Princess, you’ll surely have no trouble finding a husband."
"That’s right. And you, Yu Lang, with your charm, won’t have trouble either." Niu Pan’er said with a smile.
Song Zhiyu nodded, "I certainly won’t have trouble, there are plenty of women in the world, I’m handsome and come from a good family, why worry about not having a wife! My engagement with that girl didn’t work out, it must be that I wasn’t her destined one from a past life, just passing by to lend her a cloak, so meeting again in this life is to repay a past kindness."
"Destined one for burial? Yu Lang, that’s a novel way to put it." Niu Pan’er was a bit surprised.
Song Zhiyu smiled and said, "That’s what my mother said, it’s a Buddhist story."
He recounted the story of a couple fulfilling their predestined relationship.
"Madam sees things very clearly." Niu Pan’er said sincerely.
Song Zhiyu, rarely showing a serious expression, nodded in agreement, "My mother is the best in the world, although she’s not literate, she understands everything. Actually, she didn’t need to use these scripts to persuade me, what’s so bad about a broken engagement, I didn’t really want to get married. I fought with Zhang Dadan just because I didn’t want to hear his exaggerated and irresponsible remarks."
"My mother’s words, of course, I have to listen to, so you don’t have to worry either, you’ll definitely meet your destined one from a past life; just wait for it."
"But if I didn’t act sad in front of my mother, I wouldn’t have an excuse to get some silver out of her to go play!" Song Zhiyu said with a mischievous smile, patting his money pouch at his waist: "Considering you accompanied me to apply medicine today, I’ll cover the tea expense, oh dear, Shuiyunjian is so expensive!"
Yuan Yi and Niu Pan’er: "..."
Feeling touched, it’s all just illusionary, lasts for only a few breaths.
