Chapter 103
Qin Zhao finished watching the scene between the two, her face did not show any emotional fluctuations.
502 said, "Judging by how things are developing, coupled with the protagonist's halo, it's very likely that they will develop feelings for each other. Host, aren't you going to break them apart?"
Qin Zhao: "They are a match made in heaven, how can I, an outsider, interfere."
502: "Host, you're so sour!"
In the next few days, Huo Chengjin came every day to wait outside Qi Yan Su Luo's yard.
When she went out to buy groceries, he followed along to protect her.
When she didn't go out, he would wait until nightfall before going home.
But Qi Yan Su Luo didn't say a single word to him.
Blocked outside the yard once again, Huo Chengjin muttered to the door: "Qi Yan Su Luo, one day, I will let you see my true heart.
You will definitely become my woman!"
At night, after having dinner and bathing, Qi Yan Su Luo lay in bed.
Recently, she had been suffering from insomnia, only able to fall asleep very late.
It started to rain outside, the wind blew the wooden windows making clattering sounds.
With the help of white noise, Qi Yan Su Luo's eyelids gradually became heavy.
In the middle of the night, she was suddenly awakened by the sound of breaking porcelain!
She opened her eyes with difficulty, her gaze hidden in the dark, and thought: it must be the wind blowing down the bowl, just clean it up tomorrow.
So she turned over, ready to continue sleeping, but her foot touched something warm!
Qi Yan Su Luo let out a low cry, hurriedly got up to check, but unable to see anything clearly, she knocked over the items by the bed, making all kinds of falling sounds.
"Why are you in such a hurry, you've turned this small room into a symphony."
Qin Zhao's voice made Qi Yan Su Luo freeze in place. After calming down for a moment, she groped her way to the window sill and opened the window to let the moonlight in.
She saw Qin Zhao sitting at the edge of the bed, looking at her.
Qi Yan Su Luo went back to bed and asked, "What are you here for? It's so late, go back to sleep."
Qin Zhao said, "You can sneak into my bed in the middle of the night, but I can't come over and sit for a while?"
Qi Yan Su Luo said, "I didn't say you can't, it's just, it's late, you should go back."
"You dislike me this much? Just a few sentences and you want me to leave?"
"Too lazy to tangle with you, whatever business you have, say it quickly then leave immediately."
"I refuse to leave!"
Qi Yan Su Luo was helpless against Qin Zhao, so she could only continue sleeping.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard Qin Zhao ask, "What's the deal with Huo Chengjin? Why does he come to harass you every day?"
Qi Yan Su Luo suddenly opened her eyes, her voice as cold as frost, questioning: "Did you send people to monitor me?"
Qin Zhao casually admitted, "Yes."
Immediately after, her face was punched!
Hitting the corner of her mouth on the left side near the lips. She could even taste the blood!
It showed how heavy Qi Yan Su Luo's hand was!
Qin Zhao's anger surged in an instant. As Qi Yan Su Luo was about to hit her again, she grabbed her fist!
Pushing her down with one hand, she jumped on the bed, straddling Qi Yan Su Luo, and gave her a taste of her own medicine!
Qi Yan Su Luo was no pushover either. The two punched each other fiercely until they were too tired to lift their hands before stopping.
The two glared at each other in the dark, neither willing to back down!
Who knows how long they stared. Qin Zhao felt her eyes hurt, and fell asleep just like that.
The next day, Qin Zhao was woken up by the cold!
In the middle of the night, they had fought over the quilt and ended up splitting it evenly, one half each.
But the scene in the morning was, Qi Yan Su Luo wrapped up like a zongzi, while she shivered next to her!
Qin Zhao was so angry she kicked Qi Yan Su Luo!
Qi Yan Su Luo slowly woke up, took one look at Qin Zhao, glared at her, then lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
Qin Zhao took over the quilt and covered herself, her body gradually warming up.
Not long after, the aroma of porridge drifted into her nose!
Qi Yan Su Luo must be making breakfast.
Qin Zhao fully expected Qi Yan Su Luo to call her for breakfast.
She waited and waited until the sun shone through the window into the room, yet Qi Yan Su Luo still hadn't called her!
Qin Zhao angrily got up and went out. She saw Qi Yan Su Luo sitting in the yard reading a book.
She walked over to Qi Yan Su Luo and questioned, "Why didn't you call me for breakfast?"
Qi Yan Su Luo didn't even lift her eyelids, saying, "Never seen someone with skin as thick as you, not only freeloading in someone else's house refusing to leave, you even want to mooch food?
Too bad I'm from a poor family, no extra food at home, I only made enough breakfast for myself."
Qin Zhao was furious, "Humph, I'll go back and eat exotic delicacies, I won't miss your bowl of porridge!"
She stomped away, afraid Qi Yan Su Luo couldn't hear her fading footsteps.
After Qin Zhao left, Qi Yan Su Luo put down her book and went into the kitchen.
She lifted the pot lid, took out the bowl of porridge that was being kept warm in the pot, and poured it into the sewage bucket...
Qin Zhao returned to the Princess's residence. Ling Long saw her injured face and wanted to ask but was too intimidated by her bad mood to speak up.
It was Cong Han who voiced the question, "Your Highness, which wall did you bump into?"
Qin Zhao grumpily said, "None of your business."
She then instructed Ling Long, "Go prepare the most sumptuous breakfast, I'm hungry."
"Yes ma'am!"
Ling Long ran off as if flying, worried that being one step late would make her mistress hungry enough to fall ill.
In less than half an hour, a breakfast covering food from land, sea and air was placed before Qin Zhao.
Ling Long, Cong Han, Shen Xue stood by her side to serve her meal.
Qin Zhao picked up her chopsticks and stirred the seafood porridge for a while, licked the tip of the chopsticks.
Then she picked up a vegetable leaf and slowly chewed it.
Half a stick of incense time passed, the dishes on the table were still intact.
The three of them anxiously watched, silently praying for Qin Zhao to eat faster, their waists were tired from standing.
But they saw Qin Zhao swallow the last vegetable leaf, put down her chopsticks, and said, "I'm full."
They took a deep breath in unison and said, "Your Highness, you only ate one vegetable leaf!"
Qin Zhao pursed her lips, "I'm full means I'm full.
Don't waste the remaining food, throw away what I've eaten.
If you want to eat the rest that's still clean, go ahead.
If you don't want to, share it with the servants."
After arranging that, Qin Zhao returned to her own courtyard.
The three of them sat at the table, eating while discussing Her Highness's condition...
Qin Zhao lay in bed, intending to take a nap, but her heart was suffocating, she couldn't fall asleep no matter what.
502 couldn't stand watching anymore, and said, "Host, actually the female lead prepared a portion for you, it was being kept warm in the pot.
She was probably worried you would look down on the simple breakfast she made, so she didn't take it out."
Hearing this, Qin Zhao finally felt her anger subside. She mumbled, "How could I look down on her?"
Then she fell asleep with a smile.
In the next few days, due to her facial injury, Qin Zhao didn't go out.
On the fifth day, when the wound had healed,
Qin Zhao gave Ling Long a prescription and said, "Get me the materials written here.
Remember, buy only the best, most expensive, freshest ones."
Ling Long nodded, "Yes ma'am, leave it to me, I will get it done!"
There were only half a month left until the Emperor's birthday on the twenty-seventh day of the third month. Time to go visit Her Majesty the Empress Dowager!
