Yin Qiao dragged the distressed looking Jing Yue and helped her to put her clothes on before she hurriedly pushed Jing Yue out of the fu’s door. Xing Er, who was sitting on the carriage’s driver seat, stole a glance at Jing Yue’s face. When he saw that Jing Yue didn’t seem any different than usual, he was finally able to breathe easy.

When Xing Er watched Jing Yue go down from the carriage and was walking towards the school, he slightly bowed and said, “Huang Fei, this subordinate will pick you back to the fu from here.”

“I know.” Jing Yue duly waved her hand to show that she understood before taking a step into the school.

“Jing Yue! You’ve finally come!” Once Jing Yue came, ShangGuan LingLan and Ning XiangYuan hastily went to meet her. They pulled and scrutinized her up and down before saying, “We wanted to go to w.a.n.gfu and see you, in the end when we arrived, we were driven away at the gate.”

Ning XiangYuan stared at Jing Yue with a face filled with grievances and said, “w.a.n.gfu’sguards were really fierce, really can scare people.”

“Ah? There is such an incident? See if I don’t give those people a good lesson when I get home!” Hearing what they’d said, Jing Yue instantly became angry. It wasn’t easy for her friends to come looking for her, yet they were actually stopped and weren’t allowed to enter?

“Jing Yue, did you have any problems after you went back ah? You didn’t get any internal injuries or something like that, right?” ShangGuan LingLan asked, pulling Jing Yue’s hand.

“No problem at all, I’m as lively as a dragon and as active as a tiger!” As Jing Yue spoke, she confidently brandished her arms to show that she was really without the slightest bit of a problem.

“Jing Yue, come with me.” ShangGuan LingLan spoke and pulled Jing Yue to the side, staring at Jing Yue up and down with her burning gaze before saying, “That day at the Eldest Princess’ residence, in the end, how did you do that? I saw very clearly, you absolutely didn’t have the power to subdue that tiger, but why did that rampaging tiger suddenly calm down?”

“This…… It was very possible that the tiger got tired.” Jing Yue spoke in a deadpan manner and stared at ShangGuan LingLan.

“Jing Yue! I’m being serious.” Resentment appeared in ShangGuan LingLan’s eyes. She glared at Jing Yue and said, “Everyone else said that it was Jing Lang who subdued the tiger but I saw very clearly, it was you who tamed the tiger! You…… Did you perhaps use some kind of drugs to make the animals listen to your words?”

“Ke ke(cough)…… you have to keep this between us.” Jing Yue said, coughing a few times before she stared at ShangGuan LingLan.

Hearing Jing Yue’s words, ShangGuan LingLan’s whole body suddenly became alert. She watched the surrounding area with vigilance and then leaned her body towards Jing Yue and said, “All right, say it.”

“In fact…… I……”

“En?” ShangGuan LiangLan blinked as she stared at Jing Yue.

“In fact, I didn’t grow up just by drinking wolf’s milk, I also drank tiger’s milk. Therefore, that tiger must have mistaken me as one of its own.” Jing Yue fluently recited these words out. Her eyes were staring fixedly at ShangGuan LingLan with an ‘It’s exactly like this’ expression on her face.

ShangGuan LingLan, who was a bit dumbfounded, stared at Jing Yue and asked, “…… Is that it?”

“That’s it!” Jing Yue said, firmly nodding her head.

“…… If you say it like that, it seems like there is nothing wrong.” ShangGuan LingLan frowned in confusion and seemed to be pondering. Seeing ShangGuan LingLan mull over it, Jing Yue stuck her tongue out and silently moved her feet, leaving stealthily. Until when did she have to wait if she didn’t leave now?

“But I think there is still something wrong…… ei? Where is the person?” ShangGuan LingLan turned around, she had wanted to continue talking yet she found that Jing Yue, who stood behind her before, had already ran far away. Helplessness instantly flashed in her eyes.

“Why are you going so quick? I haven’t finished my words!” ShangGuan LingLan hastily ran after Jing Yue.
