NovelEnglishChapter 209: A Cute Thing
Ling Yichen looked at Ling Chuxi and saw that the dark cloud around her seemed to be gone. His heart felt delighted at the sight of this. Finally, he could see the Ling Chuxi who was full of life once more. He really did not know what to do with the version of Ling Chuxi who seemed to have lost her soul.
In the evening, Fu Chengyu, Ling Yichen and Ling Chuxi went to the Thousand Storey Restaurant and ordered a whole roasted goat. Ling Chuxi ate till she was satisfied and her tummy was round before wiping her mouth and smiling in an embarrassed manner. “I have made you guys worry for the past few days. I’m sorry. I’m fine now.” For the past few days, the two of them had been finding ways to make her happy, but none brought about any effect. Ling Chuxi had noticed all of their efforts and remembered them in her heart.
“It is good that you are fine now,” replied both Ling Yichen and Fu Chengyu with a smile. It was just that the two of them were so sync, they did not even make mention of the little fox just in case.
Ling Chuxi laughed awkwardly, feeling a little embarrassed and decided to no longer continue on with this topic.

Someone none other than the baby-faced Chu Jianyi. The moment Chu Jianyi saw Ling Chuxi, his eyes lit up and he rushed over to her.
“Ling Chuxi, good evening! Come, let’s have a match. Your condition is very good now!” said Chu Jianyi excitedly.
Ling Yichen who was standing by the side was left speechless. This martial-arts-crazed idiot was actually so crazy to even such an extent! The moment he saw Ling Chuxi, all he could think of was to spar. It’d be weird if Chuxi agreed!
However, Ling Chuxi’s answer was out of Ling Yichen’s expectations as she easily agreed. “Sure!” she said excitedly as she pulled her sword out and was just about to start fighting.
“Wait! We’re on the main street! Chuxi, he is messing around and being unreasonable right now. How is it that you are also going along with this?” asked Ling Yichen incredulously, feeling a little headache coming on.
“Oh, that’s true. Oh, well. Another day then,” said Ling Chuxi as she kept her sword away and smiled.
“All right. You must maintain this good condition! I’ll see you at the academy tomorrow!” replied Chu Jianyi happily as he also kept away his sword. Chu Jianyi smiled so widely that his two canine teeth could be seen. He looked extraordinarily adorable. The moment he finished speaking, Chu Jianyi was ready to take his leave.
“Wait. Where are you going this late?” asked Ling Chuxi casually. She was feeling quite happy, so she made conversation.
“Ah? I am going to buy some spiced melon seeds,” replied Chu Jianyi awkwardly as he scratched his head. He was indeed feeling a little embarrassed about this. He was already so grown, yet he still loved eating this kind of stuff. Although he had been scolded by his master to not always buy such snacks that mostly girls liked to eat, he still could not withstand it and secretly went out to buy them behind his master’s back. He also did not know how to lie, so when Ling Chuxi asked, he just answered very honestly. He was waiting for Ling Chuxi to tease him, but he did not expect her actual reply, which caused his eyes to widen.

I am very familiar with where to buy snacks.” The moment Ling Chuxi heard Chu Jianyi’s reply, she got excited and rushed forward with an offer to be his guide. Ling Chuxi still felt quite positively toward the adorable Chu Jianyi. This guy who had a baby face and a set of small canine teeth was so innocent that he did not know how to lie. He was obviously a cute little thing.
Ling Yichen helplessly put his palm to his face. Why on earth was Chuxi leading the way? It was obvious that it was because she herself wanted to eat spiced melon seeds!
“Rea—really?” said Chu Jianyi as his eyes widened and he looked at Ling Chuxi in surprise.
“Really. Let’s go. It’s right over there,” said Ling Chuxi as she led the way. Chu Jianyi immediately followed after her. Ling Yichen and Fu Chengyu exchanged glances, smiled helplessly and followed after the two of them.
Ling Chuxi brought Chu Jianyi to the snack shop with the ease of great familiarity. Then she bought a pack of spiced melon seeds for herself. Ling Chuxi was eating them when she found that Chu Jianyi was counting the money he had in his money bag.
“The melon seeds are worth ten copper coins. The boss said that if two people bought them then it would be two copper coins less. I previously had twenty-seven copper coins in my bag. So, twenty-seven minus nine, equals, equals...” Chu Jianyi muttered and muttered, but even after a while he did not complete his sentence and trailed off.
