Chapter 519: Chapter 519: Aren’t You Hinting to …_1 Chapter 519: Chapter 519: Aren’t You Hinting to …_1 Wang Youbao shook his head, feeling quite helpless, “I didn’t provoke her. I was just getting ready to accompany Miss Xing to buy a birthday gift for her brother when she suddenly shouted from behind . By the ti I turned around, she was already riding off on her horse. I didn’t even speak to her, so how could I have provoked her?”
By this point, An Jing understood more of what had happened, but she still inquired for her disciple, “Miss Xing?”
“It’s Scholar Sir’s daughter,” Wang Youbao spoke truthfully. “Scholar Sir is a well-known scholar from Sixteen Town. I t her by chance, and then I visited Scholar Sir’s ho as a guest. That’s when I t Miss Xing. She ca to my mansion today with her maidservant, saying that her brother’s birthday was coming up and asked to help her think of a good birthday gift for him. Since she ca all the way to my mansion to find , I couldn’t refuse, so I agreed.”
After listening to him, An Jing finally understood everything, but before she could say anything, the door to the hall suddenly burst open, and Li Wuyu charged out, brimming with excitent.
Even more so, Li Wuyu was calling out to Wang Youbao with joy: “Youbao! Youbao!”
An Jing nearly laughed out loud. Her disciple, ah, flared up quickly, but also cald down just as swiftly.
Watching soone who had turned her face away from him earlier, now flashing smiles at him as if nothing had happened, Wang Youbao was speechless.
Li Wuyu had overheard everything and knew there was really nothing between Wang Youbao and Miss Xing, so naturally, she was very happy.
However, when Li Wuyu ran over to Wang Youbao’s side, she was surprised to find: “Youbao, you’ve grown taller?!”
After more than half a year of not seeing each other, they used to be the sa height, but now she only reached up to Wang Youbao’s eyes.
Wang Youbao felt proud inside. Indeed, you haven’t grown at all, see, I’m taller than you now.
Still, he greeted her politely with a bow: “Miss Li.”
Li Wuyu was slightly disappointed: “I even brought the high-soled embroidered shoes that my dad bought for , thinking that wearing them would make taller than you, but in the end…”
Wang Youbao didn’t even know how to respond to that.
It was An Jing, hearing Li Wuyu’s words, who began to understand why Wang Youbao was so eager to grow taller. Hence, the smile on An Jing’s face beca even more aningful.
Li Wuyu was disappointed for only a mont before she cheerfully said, “Youbao, the four bottles of honey you gave , I’ve eaten them, and they’re so sweet!”
An Jing glanced sideways: “What ‘gave,’ you clearly asked Youbao for it.”
Li Wuyu imdiately wore a wronged expression, protesting excitedly, “When did I ask him for it?!”
Upon seeing Li Wuyu like this, An Jing beca puzzled and looked at Wang Youbao, her eyes clearly conveying the ssage: Didn’t you say she asked you for it?
Wang Youbao was also confused, pondering, “In the letter, you said An Jing gave you a bottle of honey that was very sweet, and you liked it a lot. You also said that since there was only one bottle, you were reluctant to eat it, taking only a little bit each ti… Aren’t you implying that you wanted to buy you honey?”
Li Wuyu felt even more aggrieved, loudly defending herself, “Not at all! I was just casually ntioning it to you! Can’t one chat about such things in letters?!”
Wang Youbao: “…”
An Jing almost burst into laughter, nearly injuring herself internally. A misunderstanding had cost several ten thousand taels of silver.
Li Wuyu imdiately realized that Wang Youbao had misunderstood and beca anxious: “Youbao, you’re not going to ask for the money for the honey, are you? I don’t have that much money, please don’t ask for it.”
