Chapter 1479: I Don’t Have Time for You Today!

Bai Zhi’er was surprised.

"I heard about it on my way here, but Sister Youzhen is skilled in martial arts, she shouldn’t be easily overpowered by thieves."

After all, Fang Youzhen is someone who has been on the battlefield with General Fang.

Fang Wushen waved his hand: "Ha! That’s what I told my dad, but he thinks two fists can’t fight four hands, so he simply kept my sister at home."

"But Your Highness, in such dangerous times, how come you only brought four guards? What if you encounter trouble? After class today, I’ll escort the Princess back to the palace!"

Bai Zhi’er was about to speak, but the unruly voice of Xie Yu came from behind them—

"No need for your kindness, I’ll escort her myself."

Fang Wushen and Bai Zhi’er turned their heads simultaneously.

Bai Zhi’er frowned.

Fang Wushen sized up Xie Yu: "Who are you?"

Just when Feng Fuce is not around, another one comes?!

Today, Xie Yu wore a dark purple robe, with a gold crown on his head, matched with his cool and handsome face, giving him an even more noble aura.

He smiled at Bai Zhi’er before saying to Fang Wushen, "I am her senior brother, the third disciple of the respected teacher, pleased to meet you."

Fang Wushen, suspicious, cupped his hand: "Pleased to meet you... Little Sister Zhi’er, is he really your senior brother?"

Bai Zhi’er rolled her eyes and turned to enter the academy.

"You could say that."

"Really envy..."

"Envy? Envy this so-called senior brother for taking you away." Bai Zhi’er said.

Fang Wushen was taken aback: "I wasn’t talking about envying you."

At this moment, a teacher called out with a wave: "Second Young Master Fang, come here!"

Fang Wushen had no choice but to excuse himself and leave.

Bai Zhi’er walked along the corridor, Xie Yu followed closely behind her.

"Little Sister Zhi’er?" He quickly walked up to her, trying to walk side by side.

Bai Zhi’er gave him a sideways glare: "Stop calling me that, I’m older than you!"

Xie Yu chuckled: "Should I call you sister then? I can, but you have to promise to respond if I do."

Bai Zhi’er spat: "Childish! Don’t follow me, I haven’t been to class in a long time, today’s workload is heavy. If you’re free, go patrol the streets, do some good for our Great Chu."

"Who said I’m free today?" Xie Yu chased her into the classroom: "Teacher said, my knowledge is inadequate lately, I fail all his questions, so he’s ordered me to attend class today, learn from you, and also listen to his lectures."

Bai Zhi’er widened her round eyes.

Xie Yu, on the other hand, wore a smile, looking charming and bright.

He particularly enjoyed seeing the expressions on Bai Zhi’er’s face.

When he annoyed her, she’d puff up like a cat whose tail got stepped on.

Like this, she was even more enchanting.

Much better than when she had the Fairy persona, looking coldly at him as if a benevolent God, aloof from the world.

At least, now not so high and unreachable.

"I have no time to deal with you today!"

"It’s fine, I can wait, let’s go together after class. After all, I heard the situation of missing women is serious lately, Marquis Wan is probably too occupied to come for you."

Bai Zhi’er pretended to hit him: "I don’t need you to care!"

She sat at her desk, sulking.

Xie Yu, being considerate, found a seat at the back where no one was sitting.

Bai Zhi’er, while arranging pens, ink, and inkstone on the table, thought of Feng Fuce.

Finding people should be no problem for him.

But why didn’t he come to take her to school this morning?

Before, whenever she came to the academy, Feng Fuce would wait at the gates of Ruizhu Palace early.

She vaguely suspected that something tricky was happening, and that’s why Feng Fuce couldn’t come.

Otherwise, notices wouldn’t be everywhere on the streets and alleys.

Suddenly.

Fang Youzhen’s figure appeared at the classroom door.

Bai Zhi’er was surprised: "Sister Youzhen? Why have you come! Didn’t Brother Wuxi say you were being watched over by General Fang?"
