After abusing the mad king, he cried and begged me to hug him

Chapter 10

Since the day of the poetry meeting, Xu Fengnian didn't know which nerve was wrong, and launched an offensive against Ling Wan in a high-profile and presumptuous manner.

Now everyone in the capital knows that everyone in the capital knows that Prince Pingyang's deep-rooted affection for Ling Dashi's family has become an anecdote that everyone from the royal palace to the nobles down to the common people talk about.

But Ling Wan only felt that every day when she woke up and opened her eyes, the countdown to her own death was written on the ceiling.

The system comforted thoughtfully: "Don't worry about the host, as long as you complete the task, you can save your life. At most, you will be [beep--] first and then [beep--], and you will have no problem following me!"

"Thank you, I was not comforted."

Ling Wan replied dryly, and buried her face in the quilt.

"Miss, Master is looking for you."

The maid called outside the door, Ling Wan sighed, got up and changed clothes resignedly.

In the lobby, Ling Xiuyuan was sitting upright on the seat, sipping tea leisurely.

It was the first time for Ling Wan to see such a cheap father since she traveled here.

"Father."

Ling Xiuyuan glanced slightly: "Sit down."

Ling Wan sat at the side with some anxiety, when she heard Ling Xiuyuan's cold voice again: "I heard that you won the head of the Royal Poetry Society?"

"Yes."

Ling Wan replied in a low voice, "My daughter won by luck."

"Humph."

A cold snort sounded, and Lingxiu's voice became a little more serious, "You know it's a fluke, and you should practice hard in the future. Don't be arrogant and embarrass me!"

Ling Wan lowered her eyes in response, Ling Xiuyuan gave her a meaningful look, then flung her sleeves away.

"This father is really, he hits people as soon as he comes!"

The system was indignant, "The host should ignore him!"

Ling Wan rubbed her forehead, she had a better understanding of Yuan's unlucky status.

Now in her task list, there is another item to get out of Ling's house quickly.

Just as she was thinking about it, she just called her servant girl to bring over a bowl of noodles tremblingly.

Ling Wan was a little surprised: "Noodles for lunch today? It's too early."

The maid said in a deep voice: "Miss, have you forgotten? Today is your birthday, and the master ordered me to do it."

Ling Wan was slightly taken aback, feeling inexplicably sour in her heart.

After eating a whole stick of longevity noodles, Ling Wan inexplicably felt a little empty.

"Tong, you said birthday is such an important day, just give me a bowl of white water noodles, don't say anything about noodles, at least some more snacks!"

The system is still pouring cold water: "Since Xu Fengnian started chasing you, Mrs. Ling can't wait to make soup with you, and she wants to eat. It would be nice to have noodles!"

Ling Wan curled her lips, ready to go back to her room and read a book.

But a maid who was not familiar with her came in hastily: "Miss, just now the lady of Cui Shangshu's family invited you to enjoy the peach blossoms."

Ling Wan frowned.It's already May, where did the peach blossoms come from?

But as an official lady, these entertainments are always inevitable.

"I pack up and go."

Ling Wan simply put on her makeup, and a luxurious carriage was already waiting outside the door.

The servant girl said respectfully: "Miss Ling, please."

Why is this so inviting to you!

Ling Wan glanced suspiciously at the text frame above her head, and got into the car anyway.

I can't see the problem for the time being, anyway, she still has the ability to change a sentence, which is enough to protect herself.

The carriage bumped for a while, and finally stopped in a peach grove on the outskirts of the city.

Ling Wan looked at the peach tree which was full of leaves now, and frowned even tighter.

It doesn't look like it's blooming, but between the leaves, some cloth wraps are faintly dotted, I don't know what the meaning is.

Did these ladies come up with some extravagant way of enjoying themselves?

Ling Wan got out of the car, but she didn't see Miss Cui.

She slowly walked towards the small table above the open space, which was already filled with various pastries.

Ling Wan's eyes lit up.

It's all her favorite food!

The system also understood most of it: "Host, I guess this is to celebrate your birthday!"

She did have a good relationship with Miss Cui in the school, but she didn't expect that she would come up with such a thing!
Ling Wan was about to be touched when she heard a crisp snap.

The shadow guard hiding among the bushes pulled the silk, and the peach petals wrapped in the cloth shawl instantly scattered.

The peach blossoms carefully preserved in the icehouse are scattered like a brilliant spring rain, fluttering gently with the breeze.

It was as if a layer of powder snow had fallen on the ground, and the falling flowers were flying, unlike the scene in the world.

Ling Wan looked at this fairyland-like scene in amazement, and a warm feeling crossed her heart.

She did say that her favorite flower is peach blossoms, but she did not expect that someone would remember her unintentional words.

She was an orphan since she was a child, and she spends this time of year by herself. When has she been treated so carefully by others?

The system's weak voice sounded: "Host, you won't cry, will you?"

Ling Wan quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said stiffly, "Nonsense! It's because the wind is too strong and blinded my eyes!"

She shook off the petals on her body, and looked at the looming figure with a smile on her face.

"Miss Cui, come out quickly."

The figure moved slightly and walked out slowly.

After she saw clearly the handsome figure in white clothes, Ling Wan's smile froze on her face.

She knows it!

Seeing her rapidly turning cold face, Xu Fengnian felt as excited when he saw her from afar just now, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on his head.

His fingertips holding the folding fan tightened abruptly, complex emotions glowing in his eyes.

"Why does Miss Ling hate Xu so much?"

Ling Wan was brought back to her senses by this sad question, and she was facing a pair of eyes full of sorrow.

For some reason, Ling Wan suddenly felt her heart tighten.

She lowered her head in a panic, not daring to look at those eyes that were as deep as a deep pool.

"I'm sorry, Shizi, it's not that I don't look down on Shizi, but... I have my own heart."

Of course it belongs to my little life!
Xu Fengnian looked at her evasive expression, and thought of her confident and calm expression when she praised Xiao He that day.

"Ah."

Xu Fengnian sighed, and looked at Ling Wan with a gloomy gaze, "It seems that I'm bothering you."

After saying that, he turned around and strode away.

Ling Wan stood there with her hands down for a while, until the system called her several times before she came back to her senses.

"Host, host, are you okay!"

Ling Wan forced a smile: "It's okay, it's just right that he left, all the dim sum is mine alone!"

She sat down suddenly, the petals on her body fell slowly, and landed on the table full of delicate desserts.

Lingwan nonchalantly twitched a piece of her favorite mung bean cake, but felt like she was chewing sand, tasteless.

Once back home, Ling Wan sat in her small courtyard in a daze.

"Tong, I feel that I still study too little!"

Ling Wan shook her slender calf and slammed the table hard, "No way! Give me another high-level task!"

Before the system could speak, a flustered servant ran into the yard.

"Miss Ling!"

The little servant knelt down in front of Ling Wan with a plop.

Ling Wan was taken aback, and quickly helped her up: "You are..."

The little servant staggered to his feet, and said in a mournful voice: "Miss, I am a servant of Pingyang Palace, please... please persuade our son!"
