The Villainous Classmate is My Lucky StarChapter 157 Departing Chaoge (2)Her plan had succeeded, Wen Yantong successfully managed to stay in Chi Jingxi's carriage.Wen Yantong sat opposite Chi Jingxi, drinking a cup of hot tea contentedly.Chi Jingxi expressionlessly watched her taste every pastry on the table, and then asked, "You got into my carriage just to eat?"Wen Yantong immediately denied, "How is that possible? I also have food in the carriage! I just wanted to talk to you, it’s too boring to be sitting in a carriage by myself."Chi Jingxi said, "Then you didn't have to destroy that carriage."Wen Yantong retorted, "You wouldn’t let me on, so I have no choice but to pull out my bag of tricks."Chi Jingxi laughed out of anger. "Bag of tricks?"She nodded seriously. Although the trick cost her, as long as it was effective.Chi Jingxi didn't bother to talk to her any more. Her mind had always been different from most, it's not surprising that she would do such a thing.Seeing that he was not pursuing her on this matter, Wen Yantong snickered and continued to poke at him, "Little Marquis, bet you didn't expect me to do such a thing, did you?"Chi Jingxi raised his eyes slightly, his gaze fell on her smiling face, and suddenly chuckled, "Since you said you are bored, I'll find something for you to do."Wen Yantong stiffened, feeling an impending doom.Then Chi Jingxi took out a book and threw it on the table. "If you can memorize the contents of the first three chapters, I will allow you to stay in this carriage."Wen Yantong looked at the book cover, but didn't dare to reach out to take it. She asked hesitantly, "What if I can't memorize it?""Then I'll tie you to the roof of the carriage until we reach Chang'an. What do you think of this idea?" Chi Jingxi asked gently."That doesn’t seem very good." Wen Yantong wrapped the padded jacket around her body tightly."When you ruined your carriage, why didn't you feel it was a bad idea then?" Chi Jingxi asked ruthlessly, "You are to recite it to me before entering the next town at night."Wen Yantong let out an ‘ah’, and was about to defend herself when Chi Jingxi closed his eyes, as if he was about to fall asleep again.She had no choice but to pick up the book. As soon as she opened it, she found that the first three chapters did not refer to the first three pages. A chapter had about four or five pages of content. Although this book was not the kind that had small text filling up each page, just looking at one page was enough to make Wen Yantong's head hurt.Wen Yantong managed to force herself through a few pages, but found that the content was obscure and difficult to understand. She struggled to memorize a single line, let alone three chapters. After reading it for a while, she felt drowsy. Without much resistance, Wen Yantong quietly leaned on one end of the couch; still holding the book, she began to doze off.When he heard her steady breathing, Chi Jingxi opened his eyes and saw that she had fallen asleep.He studied Wen Yantong's face; only when she was asleep would it be peaceful with her around. The corners of Chi Jingxi’s mouth subconsciously curved up, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes.In addition to the sound of breathing in the carriage, there was also the sound of wheels rolling and horseshoes stepping on the ground, but Chi Jingxi inexplicably felt this moment’s tranquility. He stared at Wen Yantong's face and could vaguely make out the innocence and delicacy that could only belong to the fairer sex.Anyone who interacted with her could feel that she stood out from the masses.In the past, Chi Jingxi had never felt that there was anything wrong with his life, but since he met Wen Yantong, he had a vague feeling that everyone around him was bound by shackles. Whilst, Wen Yantong wasn’t chained by these invisible restrictions.This kind of freedom was a fatal attraction. Then, beyond human eyes, it spread to the people around her.Chi Jingxi's eyes remained fixated on her. He remained unfazed even when he saw Wen Yantong's saliva slowly flowing down her mouth.She was such a person. Chi Jingxi thought.He stared at her until his eyes became a little sore. After blinking his eyes, Chi Jingxi then slowly moved his gaze elsewhere.Chi Jingxi has traveled between the roads of Chaoge to Chang'an for more than ten years. He found the long journey boring and redundant, to speed the trip up, he took as few detours and stops as possible, but this time was a little different.This time, Chi Jingxi wanted to take their time.When Wen Yantong woke up, she found a cotton blanket on top of her. She rubbed her eyes and realized that it was the same one that Chi Jingxi had snatched away from her.Chi Jingxi was sitting across from her, reading a book. Except for the occasional sound of him leafing through the pages, he was basically still.Wen Yantong yawned and sat up, feeling refreshed and reenergized. She couldn't help but blurted out, "Little Marquis, this couch is so comfortable to sleep on."Chi Jingxi responded lightly, "And your snoring scared the horse so much that they stopped moving."Wen Yantong turned pale with shock. "What!" She snored? And that loudly too?Of course Chi Jingxi was joking, but Wen Yantong's startled appearance was quite amusing, so he didn't clarify, allowing her to further misunderstand.Wen Yantong scratched her head, but quickly appeased herself by acknowledging that snoring was not uncommon and was mostly hereditary. "If it happens again, Little Marquis, just wake me up."Chi Jingxi gave her another look, chuckled, and scolded her quietly, "Idiot."Wen Yantong was overjoyed. With this single word from Chi Jingxi, she will be blessed with another day of good luck.After she woke up, Chi Jingxi no longer made much progress on his reading. Wen Yantong spent all her time talking to him, although Chi Jingxi didn't say much, he answered every question. He gave her most of his attention and just listened to whatever she had to say.Wen Yantong was a natural chatterbox, the kind who couldn't stop once she started talking, and could expand on any topic. Even so, Chi Jingxi listened carefully without any hint of impatience on his face, and he would take the initiative to ask questions that he didn't understand some of the modern phrases she would use.This conversation went on until dark.There was no need to travel at night, so they found a nearby place to rest for a while.The area they stopped by was Huayang City, one of the more reputable and prosperous cities of the Shao Jing Dynasty. At night, the lights on all the streets would be lit up, a brilliant sight to behold.When their large entourage entered the city, it attracted the attention of many people. In order to prevent any trouble, Chi Jingxi ordered his servants to send the horses in the stables, and all the luggage carrying carriages were to be parked in a location with constant supervision, leaving only one carriage used for traveling in the city.The first thing to do after entering a city was to naturally fill one’s stomach. The customs in Huayang City were quite different from those of Chaoge City; the women here seemed to be more liberal. It was already night time, yet young girls could be seen walking around everywhere. Although it was near the end of winter, they were dressed rather thinly.Wen Yantong already felt cold just looking at them.Her expression was like an aunt seeing a youth striding in the streets with his bare ankles out during winter.
