by MarineTLChapter 197: The Successor Wife – 19
Qiao Wuenci had been feeling quite troubled lately. He had discovered that the family was planning a trip, yet no one had notified him. His father hadn’t even mentioned requesting a leave of absence from his academy. It felt as though the family had forgotten him entirely.
Qiao Ce planned to take the whole family to Jiangnan this time. Under the guise of a private tour, he was actually helping the Emperor investigate certain matters.
On the night before their departure, Qiao Wuenci was still sulking, keeping his head down as he ate.
Ren Xin noticed the boy’s mood was off and asked directly, “What’s wrong? Is someone bullying you at the academy? Tell me, and I’ll have your father use the Duke of Zhen1’s title to pressure them.”
Qiao Wuenci shook his head, remaining silent as he continued to eat with his head bowed.
Ren Xin glanced at Qiao Ce, asking him with her eyes: What’s wrong with the kid?
Qiao Ce didn’t know either, so he could only speak up. “Wuenci, if something is bothering you, just say it.”
After what seemed like a long internal struggle, Wuenci finally asked slowly, “You’re all going out to have fun… are you planning to leave me behind?”
Ren Xin found it amusing and patted Wuenci’s head, coaxing him in a low voice, “Of course we’re taking you. You’re a member of this family. How could we leave you behind when the whole family is traveling? Jiaojiao and I have been in the kitchen every day lately supervising the cooks making snacks, so we just forgot to mention it to you. But your luggage has already been packed. You just didn’t notice. Are you happy now?”
Jiaojiao teased, “Big Brother is a dummy!”
Wuenci finally brightened up, his eyes sparkling. “Is it true? But what about my studies…”
Ren Xin said nonchalantly, “It doesn’t matter. You still have to do every bit of your homework. Just consider this a study tour. Two birds with one stone!”
Now the whole family was happy.
Qiao Ce couldn’t help himself and rubbed Wuenci’s head as well.
“In the future, if you have something on your mind, just ask. Don’t keep it bottled up. You aren’t that bright to begin with.”
Wuenci had been feeling touched at first, but then his father actually called him dim-witted!
The love was gone. It was truly gone!
The family set off on their journey. Along the way, Ren Xin ate constantly. Jiaojiao had also turned into a little foodie, her face growing rounder from all the eating.
Occasionally, Qiao Ce would take Wuenci riding with him and give him lessons, teaching him things that weren’t found in books.
In every town they reached, Ren Xin and her eating companion would go out to taste the local specialties. Jiaojiao felt like she was flying with joy.
She swore that she loved Mother the most, Father second, and then her brother!
Qiao Wuenci: “???” That’s not what you said before. Didn’t you say you and Big Brother were the absolute best of friends?
Qiao Jiaojiao, showing her heartless side, signaled that it had all been for show!
Ren Xin never had a chance to act alone. She said disdainfully to Book Spirit Number One, “It would be so great if you could manifest a physical body so you could help me. Can we go to a sci-fi world in the future? I want to get a nanny robot—the kind that can shapeshift. Collecting resources would be so easy then.”
Book Spirit Number One: “Host, please have some self-respect. You can’t have your cake and eat it too!”
Ren Xin curled her lip. If it didn’t have the ability, it should just say so instead of trying to gaslight her.
“Where’s Huhu? Why haven’t I heard from her lately?”
Book Spirit Number One said with disgust, “she just eats and sleeps. She rarely comes online. She’s nearly 500 kilograms now. I’m keeping track every day, just waiting for you to give the word so we can kill her for meat.”
That was going a bit far; they had developed a bond, after all.
The family was having the time of their lives, nearly forgetting their home in their enjoyment. The beautiful scenery of Jiangnan also greatly increased Qiao Ce’s “appetite.”
Every day, he tossed and turned Ren Xin like he was flipping pancakes!
Seriously, couldn’t he learn from those refined scholars and write some poetry about the mountains and rivers? Maybe it would be passed down to future generations and trouble a few more batches of students!
But what did this man do?
Book Spirit Number One: “He just ‘did’ you.”
Ren Xin: “……….”
