Chapter 1131: Ancient Academy Records, So Much Fun, Again and Again 18
Xie Yuancheng hurried to the pear tree, saw Jin Chen half-leaning on it drinking, and suddenly this glance left him dazed, stunned for a few seconds.
Jin Chen held the wine cup, gazing down; his plain white brocade robe brushed his shoulders like fresh snow, his face hidden among the green branches clear, gentle, and soft, his eyes warm and clear.
Soon after, Xie Yuancheng clearly heard a light laugh from above, his arm pulled by Jin Chen, he leveraged it to sit up too, and the two sat extremely close.
"What are you looking at, Little Crown Prince, so absorbed?"
Jin Chen's eyes were teasing, the corner of his mouth holding a faint smile, making him look extremely wicked.
"I... wasn't looking at anything."
Xie Yuancheng wouldn't admit he'd been staring, he patted his slightly flushed face and muttered, "Your hand has a scrape; shouldn't you apply medicine?"
"Here."
Jin Chen wasn't polite about it, immediately stuffing the small medicine bottle into his palm, pulling up his sleeve to reveal the scraped tiger's mouth.
Xie Yuancheng: "……"
"You're not being polite either, and you dare to order me around."
He muttered, carefully applying medicine to the wound, it was obvious he'd never done this before, his movements clumsy.
"Just now you didn't reveal your identity because you suspected General Song?" Xie Yuancheng asked, raising his eyes.
Jin Chen didn't deny it, "He's long not stationed in the border city."
After that, Xie Yuancheng didn't think much, applied the medicine and returned the medicine bottle to Jin Chen.
"The Old Master certainly doesn't know either, otherwise he wouldn't have let him into the academy."
"Once Father Emperor replies, I'll have to think of a way to punish him."
Xie Yuancheng sat on the tree trunk, his legs swinging, his lively eyes twinkling as he thought of nasty ideas.
"Don't startle the snake for now," Jin Chen said, smiling as he lightly tapped his forehead, "Better to draw out the bigger snake behind it."
"I know, I'm very clever."
Xie Yuancheng snatched the jade flask from Jin Chen's hand and took a sip; the plum wine tasted refreshing and sweet-tart.
"You said before you'd teach me a cultivation method," he poked Jin Chen's arm, full of anticipation, "The competition is still two months away; when do you plan to teach?"
"In a while," Jin Chen said.
"Why, can't it be today?"
Xie Yuancheng really felt that the supreme skills in the martial world were incredibly powerful, completely different from those in the palace.
"Supreme skills learned halfway always rely on magical treasures and tools; I've had the people in the pavilion custom-make them for you, which will take some time."
Jin Chen patiently explained, "Once the magical treasures arrive, I can teach you."
"Good!"
Xie Yuancheng filled with joy again, he extended his hand to bump fists with Jin Chen, "Considering you're still a decent person, I won't bully you from now on."
Although he had never succeeded in bullying before.
Jin Chen heard that, the corner of his mouth curving, he leaned in intrigued, "Little Crown Prince, are you serious?"
"Indeed! Once my word is out, even four horses can't pull it back… hard… hard… hard… oh!"
Xie Yuancheng was caught off guard, grabbed at the waist, almost thinking he'd fall, instinctively clutching Jin Chen's chest clothing, and ended up falling together with the jade flask into Jin Chen's embrace, face-to-face in a full hold.
He was frightened, his small face tensed, "Jin Chen! You did that on purpose!"
"I didn't, I just noticed the branch the Little Crown Prince is sitting on isn't very stable."
Jin Chen rested his chin on Xie Yuancheng's shoulder, responding lazily, he steadied the person, then teasingly lowered his head to glance at the torn clothing, "Your Highness, Crown Prince, this really leaves me nowhere to hide."
Xie Yuancheng blinked, embarrassingly blushing again.
What's with this person!!
He fumbled to straighten Jin Chen's front clothing, Jin Chen didn't resist, just leaned back, exuding a lazy, wanton air as if inviting plucking.
The Emperor's strict supervision meant the Little Crown Prince had never seen such a scene; he genuinely began to blush and his heart raced, the monster women from the tales his mother Empress read seeming to take real form.
However, the monsters that seduce are usually scholars; this monster is different, he dares to seduce the Crown Prince!
"Easy… I'm about to be strangled to death by you." Jin Chen lightly tapped Xie Yuancheng's arm, seeing his face flush, he teased further with a smile, "But if Your Highness enjoys playing like this…"
"What nonsense!" Xie Yuancheng's head buzzed nonstop, he simply reached to cover Jin Chen's mouth, "Don't spread rumors, I certainly don't like that!"
【Detected Villain Heartthrob Value +10, total 25!】
【Oh~ the hypocritical Main God.】0731 precise retort.
Jin Chen teased enough, sat upright, straightened his clothes, in high spirits he embraced the hypocritical person and shared a pot of wine.
Xie Yuancheng also didn't know if he was still immersed in the earlier shock, he obediently stayed still, not moving, sipping the remaining plum wine in small mouthfuls.
"Hey—what are the two of you up there chatting about!"
Lan Wuyang lifted his head to look at them, his cheeks already flushed with two patches of red, his steps unsteady.
Xie Yuancheng looked at him in surprise, "You're still drunk! When the Old Master finds out he'll scold you!"
Lan Wuyang: "I haven't drunk!"
Xie Yuancheng: "……Then why don't you turn around? I'm on this tree next to you."
"Oh! Here I am."
Lan Wuyang turned around, suddenly exclaimed, "You're also drinking up there! Come down quickly to join……"
As he walked forward, his forehead slammed tightly into the tree, he fell flat on his back, a shoe even flying off.
Xie Yuancheng frowned, smiling outright, watching made his face hurt.
Tingyang laughed sprawled, stepped forward a few steps to pull, ended up tripping over Lan Wuyang's flying shoe, slipped and fell as well; poor Lan Wuyang, just getting up, was pressed down again, trembling as he pushed Tingyang, "Your grandpa!!"
As a result, the two flailed about, nearly kissing mouth to mouth.
"No good, no good… sigh, you're really impatient."
Ye Susu, who had accompanied Jiang Yao to change clothes, hurried back to the courtyard; the words she wanted to say were blocked by the two people piled on the ground, and she slowly revealed a meaningful smile.
Jin Chen and Xie Yuancheng jumped down at the same time; looking closely, Xie Yuancheng's face was still somewhat flushed, but it was the more explosively radiant Tingyang and Lan Wuyang who drew their attention, so no one noticed.
Lan Wuyang finally stood up, covering her mouth, looking like a wronged young maiden, "Tingyang!! We just became sworn brothers of different surnames!"
"You're sick! I just didn't mean to!"
Tingyang roared angrily.
Jin Chen glanced at Ye Susu, "What did you just want to say?"
"Oh! I and Jiang Yao saw someone sneaking in, and they were loitering around our dormitory courtyard!"
Ye Susu then remembered the matter, "Jiang Yao has already followed them over; I came back to tell you the news."
