Mythical Three Kingdoms-Chapter 1342 - 1294: Maiden in Qio

"Do well in the exam." Lub Su stroked his beard and said, then glanced at the westward sun, and looking up, added, "If you can’t find your relatives, if Miss Xu trusts me, I can arrange a place for you to stay."

"Well..." Xu Ning showed a hint of hesitation, but did not reply to Lub Su.

Just then, Huang Yueying’s carriage passed by, seeing the two standing by the roadside. Lub Su saw them often, the other one seemed to be her cousin if he wasn’t mistaken.

Lub Su’s peripheral vision noticed Xu Ning, he could see her hesitation. Such a straightforward girl he hasn’t met before, so Lub Su indeed had a thought to help casually.

"Xu Ning~" Huang Yueying got off the carriage and waved at Xu Ning. They hadn’t met for years, yet thanks to Huang Yueying’s excellent memory.

"Uh?" Xu Ning looked around, then saw Huang Yueying who had already come down by the carriage, slightly dazed, and finally recognized who she was, "Cousin Yueying~"

"What brings you to Ye City?" Huang Yueying asked with slight curiosity, and at this moment Lub Su knew he should take his leave, "Miss Huang, Miss Xu has found her relative, Su won’t linger longer." After saying that, he ordered a guard to stay here waiting for Xu Family’s carriage and left with his men.

"Administrator Lub, take care." Huang Yueying bowed slightly and then turned her head to look at Xu Ning, "What brings you to Ye City?"

"Can’t I come?" Xu Ning pouted and said.

"You can." Huang Yueying supported Xu Ning, familiar with this girl’s mischievous nature, "How did you encounter Administrator Lub?"

"Is he Lub Zijing?" Xu Ning raised an eyebrow and asked.

"I saw you standing with him, thought you might know him." Huang Yueying shook her head and said.

"I just wanted to find a place to stay." Xu Ning said discontentedly, "Who knew he was Lub Zijing, but he seemed quite honest."

Huang Yueying looked Xu Ning up and down then released Xu Ning’s arm, "You lucky fellow, just happened to meet Lub Zijing, if it were someone else you would have been eaten up."

"Hey, I sprained my foot." Xu Ning protested looking at Huang Yueying.

"You think I would believe that?" Huang Yueying, knowing Xu Ning well from childhood, understood this girl was not that simple.

"Tch." Xu Ning made a face and then lunged at Huang Yueying, hugging her arm, "Sister, Ning’er has no place to live, let Ning’er stay at Sister’s home, Ning’er doesn’t want to sleep on the streets."

Huang Yueying was somewhat annoyed and stared at Xu Ning, "Kongming is not home, you can stay with me."

"Sister is the best." Xu Ning said, embracing Huang Yueying’s arm, "By the way, I’m here for tomorrow’s exam, is Sister attending?"

"I’m just taking the engineering test, not interested in others." Huang Yueying replied helplessly, thinking of herself being coaxed by Wang Yi. If she had known sooner, she wouldn’t have participated.

"Sister is so smart, why not take all subjects?" Xu Ning asked curiously, acknowledging Huang Yueying’s wisdom. Although Xu Ning herself was very clever, Huang Yueying was even smarter.

"Because there’s no need, the other subjects are not very important to me, while I really like engineering, and my husband supports me." Huang Yueying said calmly.

"Uh..." Xu Ning raised an eyebrow, "You mentioned your husband? Sister is married?"

"Aren’t you engaged yet?" Huang Yueying asked curiously, noting that she and Xu Ning were of the same age, already fifteen years old. Not to mention marriage, at least engaged by now.

"Hehehe..." Xu Ning looked awkwardly at Huang Yueying, somewhat reluctant to speak.

"You didn’t run away from an engagement, did you?" Huang Yueying asked helplessly, looking at Xu Ning.

"Sister, wouldn’t you take me in?" Xu Ning tearfully looked at Huang Yueying, crying instantly also was a skill.

"Stay at my place for now." Huang Yueying said puzzled, looking at Xu Ning. She couldn’t quite understand fleeing from marriage, marriage seemed so good.

Then Huang Yueying took Xu Ning back to the Zhuge Family residence, as Ye City’s Zhuge Family practically consisted of only Zhuge Liang.

With Zhuge Liang out, no one was at home, so Huang Yueying stayed temporarily within. This was not embarrassing for her, as she lived here even when Zhuge Liang was home, nothing uncomfortable about it.

"Stay here then, if you want to study arithmetic, I’ll find some books for you to read at night." Huang Yueying ordered the bedding to be prepared for Xu Ning and after giving some instructions, left.

"Thank you, Sister~" Xu Ning said excitedly.

Elsewhere, Cai Yan and her sister were also reading books; both chose arithmetic, then one selected politics, the other law. Originally thinking she wouldn’t meet her sister, Cai Zhenji was now quite helpless.

"I don’t even know what will be tested tomorrow, if it’s Nine Chapters on Mathematical Art, we have memorized all the questions. Even if there’s some variation, it doesn’t matter. Taking politics and law together is really troublesome." Cai Zhenji closed the book and looked at her sister.

"What is tested is actually not important." Cai Zhaoji sighed and said, "If really aiming for high marks, poetry and songs are the most suitable."

Cai Zhenji was really unsure how to respond to her sister, "Let’s just see tomorrow’s exam questions, the first few should not be too difficult, I’m not doing it for full marks." Cai Zhenji comforted herself.

"Sister, are you sure you want to take the exam?" Chen Lan asked, holding her daughter, looking at Fan Jian, confusedly, "What’s the point of you taking the exam?"

"I want to take it; arithmetic is my strong suit after all. If I don’t take it once, I’ll feel unsatisfied. I need to take the exam." Fan Jian said angrily, meanwhile Chen Qian was awakened by the noise and was comforted by Chen Lan.

"Don’t stress my little husband." Mi Zhen teased, crouching slightly as she looked at Lul Xun, "Tomorrow is the arithmetic exam, do well. As long as you’re not worse than me, I’ll be delighted."

Lul Xun’s forehead beaded with sweat, Mi Zhen was indeed beautiful but incredibly annoying; it’s not like being better at arithmetic helps to eat.

"Study well, if you’re not worse than me in the exam, I wouldn’t mind spoiling my husband once." Mi Zhen playfully teased Lul Xun. Ever since exchanging Four Pillars of Destiny with Lul Xun, teasing him became one of her daily activities.

A vein popped on Lul Xun’s forehead, ever since he realized he couldn’t beat Mi Zhen, he began training in martial arts, but martial skills can’t be mastered overnight; he’s still growing while Mi Zhen was already in her perfect form...

Moreover, Mi Zhen seemed to really enjoy teasing Lul Xun. Lul Xun hired a martial master to learn swordsmanship, while she joined in, claiming to share interests with her husband, though her intentions were clearly written on her face.
