Chapter 122 Liang Zhu 13
Ma Wencai glanced at Zhu Yingtai, who was clapping along, and silently lowered his hand, which he had prepared to raise.
His actions were seen by Su Yuanyuan, who scoffed and thought he was something special, but he was obviously a henpecked husband.
The subsequent classes went relatively smoothly. On the way back, the students gathered in twos and threes, and the most talked about topic was Xie Daoyun.
When they returned to the dormitory that evening, before they could even sit down, Wang Lantian came looking for them.
Su Yuanyuan opened the door, and Ma Wencai was outside. "What are you doing?"
Wang Lantian said matter-of-factly, "Starting tomorrow, none of us will attend Xie Daoyun's classes. Let her leave on her own."
Su Yuanyuan looked at him as if he were an idiot. "Why should I listen to you? I'm here to learn, not to go against the teacher."
"boring."
Ma Wencai was even more decisive; he turned around and walked straight into the room without even glancing at Wang Lantian.
Unable to do anything to Ma Wencai, Wang Lantian resorted to threatening her.
"You'd better do as I say, or I'll have my dad deal with you."
Su Yuanyuan rolled her eyes. "Aren't you still breastfeeding? You're always talking about your dad."
"Pfft!"
Laughter came from behind Su Yuanyuan. It turned out that Zhu Yingtai had come over to check on her since she hadn't gone back inside for a while. He happened to hear her mention Wang Lantian and couldn't help but laugh.
"You...you all, you just wait."
After uttering a harsh remark, Wang Lantian slunk away.
Su Yuanyuan scoffed, "Coward."
"What is he here for?"
Zhu Yingtai watched him walk out of the courtyard before turning to look at her.
"Don't worry about it, they're just looking for trouble."
Su Yuanyuan waved her hand dismissively. He couldn't cause any trouble; the dean and teachers wouldn't let him run amok.
She closed the door and rubbed her stomach. "I'm hungry. How about you?"
The dinner consisted of vegetarian dishes, and Su Yuanyuan only ate a little before putting the rest down. She was hungry again not long after.
Zhu Yingtai frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.
"Then eat a little less."
Su Yuanyuan rolled her eyes. "Why don't you just stop eating? You don't exercise all day, you'll easily gain weight."
Zhu Yingtai quickly shook her head, grabbed her hand to stop her from leaving, and said, "I can eat a little less, really."
"Wait."
Su Yuanyuan chuckled, went around to the back of the mountain, and took out two roasted chickens from her spatial storage.
When she returned to the room, she found Ma Wencai and Zhu Yingtai sitting inside.
Ma Wencai smiled at her when he saw her come in, but Su Yuanyuan shot a sharp look at Zhu Yingtai, who avoided looking at her.
"Why are you here?"
"I needed to talk to Yingtai about something, and you came back as soon as I sat down."
His smile was gentle, but it sent a shiver down Su Yuanyuan's spine. Lately, he had been in this state for some reason, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
However, since he had seen it, she couldn't just kick him out and eat it herself, so she waved the roast chicken in her hand.
"Want some roast chicken?"
"Then I shall respectfully comply. I have a pot of wine there; I'll go and fetch it."
Ma Wencai nodded, stood up, and walked out.
"Drinking is not allowed at the academy."
Su Yuanyuan tried to stop him, saying that Zhu Yingtai was a lightweight and had to drink more than one cup of alcohol, and since he had class the next day, it was best for him not to drink.
"It's nothing, it's just fruit wine, it won't make you drunk."
Seeing that he had already left, Su Yuanyuan gave up trying to stop him.
"Ninth Brother, you'd better not drink anything later. Even fruit wine can make you drunk."
Zhu Yingtai was somewhat unwilling; she was forbidden from drinking at home, and even outside she wasn't allowed to touch alcohol.
"I'll just have a few drinks, okay? I promise, if I feel even a little dizzy, I'll stop drinking immediately."
Su Yuanyuan looked at her speechlessly. How come she never noticed before that Zhu Yingtai was a good drinker?
"You can only have one drink."
"Ok."
When Ma Wencai entered, he saw Zhu Yingtai smiling radiantly. He was stunned for a moment, and it was only when Zhu Yingtai called out to him that he came back to his senses.
He coughed lightly to cover it up, put the wine in his hand on the table, and also brought over three wine glasses.
"There's still half a pot left, let's just have a small sip."
Su Yuanyuan nodded. Of course, the less the better. She opened the paper package, and the aroma of roast chicken immediately wafted out.
"Try my roasted chicken."
Zhu Yingtai couldn't wait to tear off a chicken leg and hand it to Ma Wencai. Su Yuanyuan's outstretched hand paused slightly, and she tore off the other chicken leg.
She now understands why fathers with daughters often dislike their sons-in-law.
Zhu Yingtai hasn't even figured things out yet, and he's already taking care of her. Su Yuanyuan secretly shook her head. Ma Wencai deserves to die!
She took a sip of the fruit wine, which tasted sweet and sour to her, just like drinking a beverage. She never expected that Ma Wencai would drink this kind of wine.
As if he knew what she was thinking, Ma Wencai glanced at her with his eyes.
"Drinking alcohol is not allowed at the academy. We can only drink some fruit wine, which will not affect our classes the next day."
Su Yuanyuan nodded repeatedly, indicating that she understood. Ma Wencai's face darkened, and he drank the fruit wine in his hand in one gulp.
She took another sip of her drink, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw Zhu Yingtai's head starting to sway.
Su Yuanyuan stood up and walked over, just about to carry her to the bed, when Ma Wencai beat her to it and picked Zhu Yingtai up in a princess carry.
Su Yuanyuan stared with dead fish eyes, her hand trembling slightly as she looked down at him, as if she really wanted to hit him.
This is too blatant. You should at least pretend.
Watching him put Zhu Yingtai on the bed, Su Yuanyuan didn't want him to stay any longer.
"It's getting late, you should go back and rest."
Ma Wencai smiled, glanced at Zhu Yingtai again, and then left.
"Okay, then you should all get some rest too."
The next day, while eating in the cafeteria, Xie Daoyun came over and said that she would rest in the morning because she was new to the academy and didn't know much about it. She would spend the morning with the dean to familiarize herself with the environment.
Let them read the book on their own first, and then play chess with everyone in the afternoon.
The students were overjoyed to hear they could rest, and the cafeteria was empty in no time.
Su Yuanyuan was also very happy. She had no plans to leave the academy and hadn't practiced riding and archery for several days. She wanted to go horseback riding now.
"Ninth Brother, shall we go horseback riding?"
She looked at Zhu Yingtai, who was having dinner with Ma Wencai at the table next to her. Upon hearing this, she looked at her apologetically.
"I'm sorry, Xiao Shi, I just promised Brother Wencai that I would accompany him down the mountain to buy things."
Su Yuanyuan glared at Ma Wencai. When did this happen? How come she didn't hear them talking just now?
"Brother Jingxian, would you like to come along?"
Ma Wencai looked up at her, asking with a smile in his eyes.
"No, I'm not going."
Her answer was firm and resolute; Su Yuanyuan had no intention of going out with them.
After they parted, she went straight to the training ground and led a black horse out of the stable.
There was no one on the training ground at this moment, and Su Yuanyuan had such a large space to herself, so she could finally run to her heart's content.
Before she had gone far, Yin Xin came anxiously looking for her.
"Tenth Young Master, you should go back and check on her. My young master has been brought back by Young Master Ma. She is alone in her dormitory and won't let anyone in."
"Tie the horse up."
Su Yuanyuan tossed the reins to Yin Xin and used her lightness skill to run back.
