Chapter 434: Housewarming Banquet (1)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Squeak!

In the alley behind the new residence, Luo Ning left through the back door and walked along the alley toward the Pei residence.

For convenience’s sake, the two residences were less than 200 meters apart, and most of the maidservants and servants could move back and forth.

Luo Ning entered the Pei residence’s back door familiarly. She wanted to go to the stable to get a horse and run to the Black Office to ask about the little thief’s whereabouts. But when she arrived at the stable, she found the big black horse standing in the stable chewing grass. When it saw her, it even snorted to greet her. “Pfft!”

Luo Ning was stunned. She looked around and found a maidservant passing by. “Is Ye Jingtang back?”

“Miss Luo, Young Master Ye is back. He’s in Third Lady’s courtyard.”

“Oh…” Luo Ning was slightly puzzled. Judging from the horse’s condition, the little thief must have been back for a while. There was no one in Third Lady’s courtyard, so did he go to burn incense again?

While her thoughts were running wild, Luo Ning passed through the festoon gate and walked toward the courtyard where Third Lady lived. Just as she turned the corner of the corridor, she heard a faint conversation.

“You learn fast.”

“Hehe~ Of course. Am I much smarter than the princess?”

“Huh? How do you know this?”

“I’m not a little girl. I’m already sixteen years old. You, an eighteen-year-old man, hang around the princess all day. How can 1 not guess what you’re thinking?”

“Sigh, I’m asking you how you know that the princess is a slow learner.”

“I didn’t say it. I’m just asking. Is the princess really not as smart as me?”

“You can’t say that. The Prince of Jing knows everything about zither, Go, calligraphy, and painting. The people in her painting look like real people. Even if you practice for ten years, you won’t be able to catch up…”

“Tsk, I’m a woman from Jianghu. What’s the use of good-looking writing? Brother Jingtang, are you biased and protective of her shortcomings?”

“Hehe…”

Luo Ning looked at the closed door and tilted her head slightly. There was a strange look in her eyes. The little thief is quite normal. Why does Yunli… Why does she look like she’s flirting and poaching from the princess?

Luo Ning took a deep breath, causing the little watermelons to bulge. She was about to go in and spank Yunli’s butt, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was wrong. What right do 1 have to deal with Yunli? Yunli is already sixteen and about the sage as the little thief One is the Saber Chief, and the other is the direct disciple of the Pacifying Heaven Cult Master. They are well-matched. As long as 1, her martial mistress, am a normal person, 1 should think of a way to matchmake them. Its illogical forto stop them…

Luo Ning’s mind was spinning rapidly. Before she could figure out what to do, the door opened.

Creak-

Ye Jingtang appeared at the door and looked at the corridor. He said in surprise, “Heroine Luo, why are you here?”

In the room, Zhe Yunli held the five-foot-long saber with both hands and practiced seriously, putting on a posture of thrusting the saber. When she saw her martial mistress’s strange gaze outside, perhaps afraid of being misunderstood, she hurriedly put away the saber and stood up straight. “Martial Mistress, Brother Jingtang and I are practicing a saber technique.”

Luo Ning folded her hands at her waist and slowly walked to the door like a cold and dignified single mother. She looked around casually. “Why are you practicing with the door closed?”

“I’m afraid someone will steal my technique.” Zhe Yunli held Muqing Saber and put on a beautiful posture. “Brother Jingtang just taughta saber technique. It’s very powerful…”

Luo Ning didn’t probe further and only reminded, “Since it’s powerful, practice well. In a few days, I’ll get your Brother Jingtang to test you. If you don’t pass, 1 will still spank you. Don’t think that I won’t care about you just because you’re sixteen.”

“Huh?”

“Alright, continue practicing. Ye Jingtang, chere.” Luo Ning walked out the door and entered the corridor.

Ye Jingtang couldn’t talk nonsense in front of Yunli. He followed Luo Ning into the corridor. After turning the corner, he placed his hand on the round blue moon and pinched it gently. His fingers sank into the softness.

Luo Ning was still maintaining the posture that a martial mistress should have. When she was suddenly taken advantage of, her shoulders shrank slightly. Then she turned around and hammered Ye Jingtang’s shoulder with her small fist. “Do you want to die?”

Ye Jingtang didn’t let go. Instead, he pulled Luo Ning over and scratched her annoyed face. “No one saw us. I haven’t seen you for a few days. I miss you.” “You’re thinking about me? You’re clearly thinking about recuperating…” Luo Ning couldn’t break free, so she stopped struggling and brought Ye Jingtang to the corner of the corridor. She raised her face and said solemnly, “Why were you alone with Yunli?”

“Uhh?” Ye Jingtang put his arms around Ning’er’s waist and looked down at her beautiful but cold face, a little puzzled. “I met her when I cback, so I took the opportunity to teach her a saber technique… Is there a problem with this?”

Luo Ning pursed her lips. “There’s no problem, but it’s better to be safe than sorry. Our relationship can’t be made public, and Yunli doesn’t know about it. In Yunli’s eyes, you’re a man of the sage as her who belongs to the Pacifying Heaven Cult like her. You’re handsand skilled in martial arts, and you both like the saber. When a girl is fifteen or sixteen, she will usually fall in love for the first time. If Yunli treats you like that… there won’t be a big problem.”

Ye Jingtang regarded Yunli as a little girl and had never thought of this. He pondered for a moment. “Then, should I stay away from Yunli in the future?”

Luo Ning’s eyes were a little hesitant. “Yunli will definitely look for a husband. It’s not easy for a woman to meet a man she likes in her life. As her martial mistress, I got there first. If I still stop her, I’ll feel…”

“Ning’er, don’t tellyou’re preparing…”

“Ptui!” Luo Ning knew what Ye Jingtang was thinking. Her expression turned cold as she reminded him sternly, “Little thief, if you continue to let your imagination run wild, don’t blme for being heartless. 1 don’t care what Yunli thinks. In any case, you can’t have any crooked thoughts.. If she really has any thoughts in the future, I’ll cut ties with you and be your mother-in-law from then on…”
