Chapter 124: Chapter 110, Not Fussy_1
Xiao Yeyang, leading a group of people, had just stepped out of the restaurant when passersby on the street took notice and, seeing them heading towards the location of the student brawl, instinctively stepped aside to make way.
“This…”
Within the crowd, Wu Hongda was somewhat surprised as he pulled Zhou Chengye aside and whispered, “Could the Little Prince be here because of the Yan brothers?”
Zhou Chengye nodded, “Definitely.”
Hearing this, Wu Hongda’s face took on an incredulous expression, “The Little Prince isn’t someone who likes to meddle in others’ affairs. What on earth do the Yan brothers have, to catch his eye?”
His grandfather was the Court Physician, and the Little Prince was a lively and boisterous child. His grandfather had treated him countless times, but even so, he had never won the prince’s favor.
Zhou Chengye didn’t reply, but he thought of the Yan Family’s eldest daughter, who was very familiar with the Little Prince. He could sense that the Little Prince felt differently about her.
Grandfather had inquired and it seemed that it was because the Yan Family’s eldest daughter had once saved the Little Prince.
“Just watch!”
The Little Prince’s attitude toward the Yan Family could perhaps be inferred from this incident.
“Yan Wenkai, you’re done for. Just you wait, I’ll make sure you’re expelled from the Academy!”
As Xiao Yeyang arrived with a large group of people, they just happened to catch Dong Xiangrong’s arrogant shout.
The people around stepped aside of their own accord, making way for Xiao Yeyang who, fanning himself, walked in and silently observed Yan Wenkai and the others, still locked in combat.
Dong Xiangrong was about to threaten again, but suddenly, he noticed the surrounding area had quieted down, and, puzzled, he turned to look back. What he saw scared him out of his wits.
The hands that had been grabbing Yan Wenkai’s arm let go instantly. Without the restraints, Yan Wenkai landed a punch on Dong Xiangrong’s face, sending him to the ground.
At that moment, everyone else also realized something was off. Seeing Xiao Yeyang standing by composedly watching them, they couldn’t help but shudder, then one by one they ceased fighting and stood to the side with their heads bowed.
Dong Xiangrong, who had been punched in the face, didn’t dare to make a sound either. After climbing up from the ground, he stood silently with the others, like a child who had done something wrong, waiting for an adult’s reprimand.
Seeing Xiao Yeyang, Yan Wenkai and Wentao also retreated a bit involuntarily.
Xiao Yeyang first looked towards Wentao and spoke with a smile, “Keep going, why stop? I found your fighting quite good.”
Then, turning his head to Dong Xiangrong, he said, “Keep on shouting, so I can understand just how mighty you are to dictate who stays and who leaves the Academy.”
“Little Prince, I was wrong. I spoke in haste and without thinking,” Dong Xiangrong’s forehead broke out in cold sweat, and inwardly he wailed, why did it always have to be the Little Prince who witnessed him and Yan Wenkai’s brawls?
The previous time was at the post station, and now on the street, could his luck get any worse?
Xiao Yeyang paid no attention to Dong Xiangrong and turned to Yan Wenkai and Wentao asking, “What exactly happened? Why did you all start fighting here on the street?”
Yan Wenkai was going to tell the unvarnished truth, but seeing Zhou Chengye in the crowd desperately shaking his head, after a brief consideration, he grinned and replied, “Your Highness, we were practicing our martial arts skills with classmates.”
The Academy had explicit rules forbidding fighting, and although their brawl occurred outside, if the Academy chose to pursue the matter, they would still face punishment. It would be better to call it a martial arts practice to avoid all trouble.
Upon hearing Yan Wenkai’s response, Zhou Chengye and Dong Yuanxuan both sighed in relief in unison.
Now that the Little Prince was involved, a trivial matter could escalate into a major one, and it seemed that the Little Prince might be inclined to take a stand for the Yan brothers.
If the Yan brothers insisted and actually caused Dong Xiangrong and the others to be punished, it might provide some satisfaction, but that would surely offend the powerful families behind these students.
Dong Xiangrong and the others also silently breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, all of them deeply regretted their actions. Had they known they would encounter the Little Prince, they would have definitely steered clear of the Yan brothers.
“Practicing?”
Xiao Yeyang chuckled, walked over to Yan Wenkai, and with a gesture, his folding fan snapped shut and he patted Wenkai’s body playfully.
“Ah!”
Yan Wenkai immediately rubbed his arm and grimaced in pain, exclaiming, “Little Prince, why did you hit me?”
Xiao Yeyang said indifferently, “I just saw you fighting so fiercely, I thought you wouldn’t be afraid of pain.”
Yan Wenkai made a bitter face, “I’m made of flesh, of course it hurts.”
Xiao Yeyang didn’t pay him any more attention, glanced at Yan Wentao, who also had quite a few injuries on his face, and asked, “Is the wine on the ground yours?”
Yan Wentao nodded, “Mm, Daohua personally brewed it.”
Xiao Yeyang’s eyes lit up, he fanned himself quickly a couple of times, sniffed the aroma of wine lingering in the air, and then pretended not to care much, “It smells…quite good.”
“It tastes even better,” Yan Wenkai immediately began praising how sweet, fragrant, and lingering the grape wine was.
Xiao Yeyang’s expression shifted slightly, and he asked faintly, “You brought the wine to the Academy for…?”
Yan Wentao, who couldn’t lie, immediately said, “To present to Instructor Fang.”
Upon hearing this, Dong Yuanxuan and others nearby who were relatively close all wore a speechless look.
Zhou Chengye, who had squeezed through the crowd, couldn’t help but want to facepalm.
Couldn’t this Yan Wentao have a bit of tact? Couldn’t he just say it was for the Little Prince?
Sure enough, upon hearing that the wine wasn’t for him, Xiao Yeyang’s expression turned indifferent.
Fortunately, Yan Wenkai was quick-witted and felt that Xiao Yeyang was getting upset, so he quickly said, “Daohua has stored the best barrels in the cellar, not to be drunk by anyone, saying she would uncork them when you visit in the future.”
“Really?”
Seeing Yan Wenkai and Yan Wentao both nodding, Xiao Yeyang’s expression improved slightly, his lips curled into a faint smile, then he straightened his face again and asked, “So why are you carrying a wine jar around?”
“Don’t even get me started; it’s all because of Daohua,” Yan Wenkai complained straight away. “The jars she used to store the wine are so poor; they don’t match with the grape wine at all. We just wanted to get a better one.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yeyang laughed, and even Dong Yuanxuan beside him could not help but smile.
Thinking of the Hundred-Year Ginseng wrapped carelessly in cotton, both of them shook their heads involuntarily.
“That Daohua, really not particular!” Xiao Yeyang mockingly scolded, before turning to leave.
He still remembered how pained the Imperial Physician looked when he handed over the ginseng, decrying the ginseng picker as a spendthrift ignorant of its true value.
“Hurry up and follow!”
Seeing the Little Prince walking several meters ahead, and Yan Wenkai and Yan Wentao still foolishly standing there, Zhou Chengye had to step out and remind them.
Yan Wenkai scratched his head, “Should we follow? The Little Prince didn’t call for us, did he?”
Zhou Chengye was exasperated. Waiting for the Little Prince to call personally, how thick could their faces get?
If any of them had a chance to interact with the Little Prince, as long as he didn’t shoo them away, they would shamelessly stick with him to the very end.
Unfortunately, such thoughts were hard to express. Luckily, Dong Yuanxuan stepped in to help.
“Aren’t you going to follow?”
Dong Yuanxuan turned to look at the Yan brothers and, seeing Zhou Chengye beside them, said with a smile, “Zhou brother is here too. The Little Prince is going for a stroll; let’s join him!”
Zhou Chengye was pleased and immediately pushed the Wen brothers to catch up while also not forgetting to pull along his good friend Wu Hongda.
As for Dong Xiangrong and others who were ignored, they exchanged glances and dared not follow.
