Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

By the time Zhao Chuchu came back from Xie Heng’s place, it was almost noon.

Xie Heng made her stay and lay in bed with him for almost the entire morning. They didn’t do anything except for lying under the blanket and chat.

Xie Heng was very knowledgeable about a lot of things. He could carry the conversation regardless of what Zhao Chuchu spoke about. The conversation was so easy that Zhao Chuchu lost track of time.

Yuan Hui had been waiting in Zhao Chuchu’s room for her to return.

“Was the injury very severe? You needed an entire night and the morning?”

Yuan Hui walked forward hurriedly when she saw Zhao Chuchu. She asked, “Are you exhausted now? Do you need me to get people to prepare some hot water for your so you can shower? How about a massage?”

“It’s fine; I was just really tired last time. I didn’t want to come back late at night and disturb you guys, so I stayed the night at an inn outside. The mother and daughter of the Kang clan are both not in any mortal danger anymore. They just need to learn to protect themselves.” Zhao Chuchu found an excuse for herself and explained.

Yuan Hui believed her. She said, “That’s great. Yesterday, Kang Xiuwan’s injury seemed quite severe. She is the daughter of the Kang clan’s first lady. How could they treat her like that?”

“Not every family is like the Yuan clan, and not every man is responsible like your father. There are no test or license requirements for parents, which is why there are all sorts of parents out there. Kang Xiuwan was simply too unlucky! ”

“Sigh, I hope she’ll be fine. Kang Xiuwan is one of the few girls in Guangqing Province that I like. I hope nothing bad happens to her and everything goes well. Chuchu, did you tell her that she can come to look for me if she needs help? Although I don’t have that much power, I can still help her with certain things. ”

Zhao Chuchu laughed and said, “We really do think alike. I told her that she could ask you for help if she needed it. She told me that she will. But Huihui, you need to be careful during this period as well. I’m planning to return to Yuanjiang County tomorrow.”

“So sudden?”

“Yup, I’ve been out for more than a month now. I really miss Da Lang and Junjun. There are also some crops on our farm that need to be tended to. You’re still finalizing your engagement, so you should stay in Guangqing Province. With Duke Ding’s men here, no one would dare to hurt you.”

“But I don’t want you to go.”

Atter a month together with Zhao Chuchu, Yuan Hui thought ot Zhao Chuchu as her sister.

She learned a lot of things from Zhao CHuchu that no one else had taught her before. She also found out about many new, novel ideas and concepts from Zhao Chuchu.

Yuan Hui really didn’t want Zhao Chuchu to go back. She even thought about getting Xie Heng and Xie Jun to come to Guangqing Province as well. That way, she would be able to meet Zhao Chuchu often.

Yuan Hui had never tried to rely on a girl that was younger than her, but Zhao Chuchu had become an exception.

“Don’t worry. We’re going to meet again soon. When you get married and move to the Imperial City, Da Lang might just become a Number One Scholar and move to the Imperial City as a new government official! We’re all be at Imperial City when that happens, isn’t it?” Zhao Chuchu consoled Yuan Hui, “We’re separating now so we can have a better reunion in the future.”

“Can I go to Yuanjiang County together with you? If I tell my grandmother, she’ll definitely agree.”

“Let’s wait for half a year. Ignoring the other things, since you really like the heir, you should finalize the engagement first. Everything else can be arranged after that.

“But going to Yuanjiang County wouldn’t affect the engagement.”

“That would be disrespectful toward the heir. He is the son of Duke Ding. Even if he doesn’t mind it, if the news gets back to the Imperial City somehow, I don’t know what implications that might have. Huihui, you need to be more generous and daring toward the man whom you love, don’t create misunderstandings just because you want to appear reserved.”

Yuan Hui blushed and mumbled softly, “I didn’t create misunderstandings…”

Zhao Chuchu asked, “You’re discussing engagement with him, yet you want to go to another county suddenly? What do you think other people will think about it? They’ll think that you don’t like this engagement and run away on purpose to hide from it. The real meaning of information and news changes when people pass it around. Don’t ruin your relationship because of an unintentional decision.”

Yuan Hui had never thought about that.

Now that Zhao Chuchu explained it to her, she also felt that her actions might be inappropriate.

“Okay, I got it. Thank you for the reminder. Otherwise, I might have done things that people will misunderstand.”

“Yeah, we can meet any time, right? The person you like is the heir of a noble family. If you lose the engagement because of something like this, aren’t you going to regret it? Huihui, the most important thing in this world is to make yourself happy when you have the choice.”

Yuan Hui nodded earnestly.

Zhao Chuchu continued, “Before I live, I’ll craft some small trinkets to protect you. Bring them with you when you go out. Even though you’re discussing engagement with Heir Qiao right now, you shouldn’t let down your guard.” Women are held to unreasonable standards in this era.

Even if the woman is the victim, she would still be blamed for it, and people would still think she deserved punishment.

Even if a woman got raped, her family would force her to marry the man who hurt her for the sake of their reputation.

The Yuan clan is a juicy slab of meat in the eyes of many people, and Yuan Hui is the most tender part of that meat.

Qiao Heting came to propose to her in such a high-profile manner, but that would only be able to scare away some people. There would still be some who are willing to use detestable methods to get what they want. “I think no one will dare to touch me.”

“You’re wrong. Only some people won’t dare to touch you.”

Some men dare to lay their hands on the country’s princess to get what they want. The daughter of the Yuan clan was nothing in comparison.

When there was a chance of obtaining millions of dollars worth of wealth, many men would be willing to take the gamble.

After all, who wouldn’t want to own fertile land, luxurious mansions, and countless gorgeous wives?

Yuan Hui was shocked. She asked, “Are they going to go against Duke Ding?”

“Huihui, money is the root of all evil. People can throw away all of their morals and principles for money. Don’t think that you’re safe now. You must remain vigilant!”

“Okay, I got it. Chuchu, you’ve been busy the whole night. Do you want to take a break first?”

“I’m fine. I just wanted to make some protective trinkets for you. But the process of making these things might be a little dangerous. It could hurt other people…”

“Okay, I understand,” Yuan Hui said before ZHao Chuchu even finished her sentence, “I’m going to visit my grandmother. I’ll leave for a while. Take care.”

Zhao Chuchu nodded.

Yuan Hui left afterward.

Zhao Chuchu described it as a “small protective trinket.”

But it’s actually a mechanism that contained knockout drugs. Once it’s triggered, even a fully grown bull wouldn’t be able to stay conscious.

Other than that, Zhao Chuchu also had pepper sprays and electric batons, but these things were too technologically advanced and would attract too much attention. Zhao Chuchu didn’t want to give them to Yuan Hui, lest it might cause unnecessary trouble for her.

That said, Zhao Chuchu wanted to make some poisons for Yuan Hui that could save her life at crucial moments.

Zhao Chuchu spent the afternoon making those things, and Yuan Hui didn’t come to disturb her.

She packed up the items and prepared to deliver them to Yuan Hui when it was time for dinner.

After that, she kept the previously bought things in her carry-on space so she could travel light on the way home..
