I Gave Birth to a Cub without Telling the Head Assistant - Chapter 15.1

Chapter 15.1

‘Wow, the first name is Wang Chulin. Prince Wang is very attractive, but he is useless!

How can I have a child with him when he is suffering from a hidden illness and unable to do his best?’

Ruan Longling sighed a little and looked down, and she saw Yu Zeqi’s name written clearly in the second column.

‘The women in Yangzhou have very intense eyes.’

Wang Chulin was good-looking, had a strong presence, and had a cool attitude. This special personality made him stand out and made others like him right away, making him one of a kind and very special in the world.

Yu Zeqi was also a good-looking young man; however, he didn’t care about being famous or rich; he was kind and polite, and he had a friendly and approachable personality. 

‘Actually, if I want to keep the son and not the father, Yu Zeqi is a great choice because he has good looks, talents, and a good character. But the problem is that Yu Zeqi and I know each other too well.’

Mr. Zhou Ge brought Yu Zeqi to Yangzhou three years ago, and they became friends.

He treated her in a special way other than other women, but due to the marriage agreement with Liu Chengji, he didn’t cross the line, and she also behaved politely and respectfully.

So far, Ruan Longling only saw Yu Zeqi as a good friend and had no plans to use him in any way for her own happiness. 

Ruan Longling was feeling confused and didn’t want to think about these small things for the moment, so she took a deep breath and said to her maid, “That’s it; it’s almost time to eat. Check the small kitchen to see if the soup is ready. Then let’s visit Xinghui Pavilion.”

Xinghui Pavilion.

In the study room, the smoke of the incense sticks went up in the air slowly, leaving a light smell of sandalwood.

The sunlight came through the gaps in the window sills and shone on the man in silver sitting at the desk, writing quietly. The big white hydrangea in the Rukiln vase on the desk moved a little in the wind, and everything appeared calm and serene.

‘What a perfect picture!’

Ruan Longling came to Xinghui Pavilion to deliver food and couldn’t resist stopping to look around a bit more.

All of a sudden, she heard a familiar voice.

“What are you staring at? So fascinated”

Ruan Longling looked and saw Yu Zeqi standing under a tree, smiling at her.

There was nothing that needed to be kept secret. She lifted her head, pointed to the study, and asked unsurely, “Anyone couldn’t go to the Xinghui Pavilion as they wish, and the study says, Does that prince have any relationship with Mr. Zhou?”

Yu Zeqi walked up to her and said with a smile, “It’s not just about where it comes from. That person learned from the Elder and got at learning. He is Mr. Zhou’s favourite student.”

“Really?” Ruan Longling didn’t really believe it.

Mr. Zhou Ge had been going to the court for many years. He was very serious and strict, and he loved to learn. Even though he was very successful, he acted very strangely. While teaching, if he came across someone who didn’t understand, he would help them in front of everyone, and he would also use bad words without holding back to scold them in front of everyone.

‘What talent and ambition does he need to become Mr Zhou Ge’s favourite student?’ Thinking that, Ruan Longling asked again, “Does he know a lot? How is he better than Liu Chengji?”

“Why do you keep thinking about Liu Chengji?” Yu Zeqi frowned a little and waved the folding fan in his hand. “I’m telling you, the knowledge Liu Chengji has is not much, like a weak firefly. The person in the study has much more talent, like the sun and moon shining brightly.”

Ruan Longling touched her nose and then asked with curiosity,

“Do you want to compare with him? Others have been praising your recent articles a lot. Is it possible that he knows more than you do?

“Yes, he is better than I am.” Yu Zeqi was not arrogant, and he admitted generously, “We were studying together at the Imperial College. I was still thinking about how to be naughty and skip classes every day, while he was already helping the teacher gather historical information.”

Ruan Longling still didn’t believe it.

“Why hasn’t he won any top prizes if he’s so talented? Why is he still here instead of moving on?”

‘What’s the use of being the best? That person was sitting at the Jinluan Palace and was the one who asked the questions to the top scholar in the palace exam.’

Yu Zeqi knew who was in the study, but it was hard to tell Ruan Longling.

After all, the chief assistant went to Yangzhou under the pseudonym Wang Chulin. He must have important things to do, and his identity could not be revealed easily.

Have a nice day!
