Picked Up A Husband For Farming - Chapter 284
284 Traveling
“Yes.” Qiao Yanhui was teaching the three children how to write. Seeing that the children’s handwriting was getting more and more beautiful, Qiao Yanhui looked satisfied and proud.
When Xu Qing saw this, she smiled slightly. Just as she was feeling warm and fuzzy, she heard Qiao Yanhui suddenly say, “Since you’re here, why are you still hiding?”
At this moment, Liu Gexu walked out from the darkness, still looking as aloof as ever.
However, Xu Qing suspected this person. Although he said that he had no hopes or desires, it was only on the surface. His feelings for Ying Zhiyao made it impossible for him to have no desires.
!!
Liu Gexu’s blue eyes flickered. He knew that Qiao Yanhui was waiting for him! But why couldn’t he control himself? Liu Gexu pursed his lips slightly, his body exuding aloofness.
“The hundred-year-old dragon robe is our country’s national treasure. If you want it, it’s not something you can get with just a verbal promise,” Liu Gexu said calmly.
Qiao Yanhui didn’t reply. Instead, he said to Xue’er, “You have to focus on practicing calligraphy.”
“Sorry.” Xue’er hurriedly shifted her gaze away from Liu Gexu. She just wanted to see Liu Gexu’s beautiful eyes.
“Do you think this is a difficult task, State Master?” Qiao Yanhui chuckled. Even if Leng Tongze wanted the hundred-year-old dragon robe, he might not be able to touch it. However, it was easy for Liu Gexu.
Liu Gexu lowered his eyes. As expected, the War God lived up to his reputation. Qiao Yanhui was determined to get the hundred-year-old dragon robe. Even if he didn’t come today, he believed that Qiao Yanhui would be able to get the hundred-year-old dragon robe. It would just take him some more time.
“You know her?” Liu Gexu looked up at Xu Qing.
Xu Qing raised her eyebrows. “Who is she?” He still wanted to maintain hid aloof demeanor at this time? She wasn’t going to give him the information he wanted.
Displeasure flashed in Liu Gexu’s eyes. He didn’t like this feeling. He felt as if she had seen through him. However, after a long silence, he said, “Ying Zhiyao!”
“Oh.” Xu Qing acted enlightened.
This made Liu Gexu feel a little embarrassed. There was anger in his eyes and he clenched his fists.
Xu Qing felt that he was a socially awkward person who always acted self-important. It was no wonder Ying Zhiyao chose Yi Chulin over him. Who would like a person who acted high and mighty even when in love? They were all adults. Who had the time to wait for him to grow up? Xu Qing sneered. Since he got angered so easily, he deserved to be single.
“I’ll tell you about Ying Zhiyao when I see the hundred-year-old dragon robe.” Xu Qing was very dissatisfied with Liu Gexu’s attitude. Now, he was the one who wanted to learn information about Ying Zhiyao from them, yet with his cocky attitude, those who didn’t know better would think that they owed him.
Liu Gexu’s expression stiffened. Then, he flicked his sleeve and left.
Qiao Yanhui looked at Xu Qing helplessly.
“I’m just helping him. With his attitude, he definitely won’t be able to find a wife in the future.” Xu Qing rolled her eyes.
Qiao Yanhui pulled Xu Qing dotingly. “What does him getting a wife have to do with you?” Qiao Yanhui knew that Xu Qing didn’t like Liu Gexu’s attitude.
“Of course it has nothing to do with me. I just don’t like him,” Xu Qing said with a pout.
“Don’t worry, in the next two days, Liu Gexu will bring the hundred-year-old dragon robe over.” Qiao Yanhui looked ahead, his eyes filled with confidence. He originally thought that it would take some time, but he didn’t expect such a surprise. Liu Gexu actually liked Ying Zhiyao.
Therefore, during this period, Xu Qing and Qiao Yanhui brought the children out to play.
Leng Tongze even sent people to protect them. After all, if anything happened to Qiao Yanhui in his country, the consequences would be unimaginable. Although Ao Heng didn’t pay much attention to Qiao Yanhui, the citizens of the Ancient Kingdom supported him very much. In addition, Qiao Yanhui’s friends were all powerful and influential, and one of them was even the heir to the throne!
If the Ancient Kingdom really wanted to start a war, Ao Heng probably couldn’t stop them at all! Although the Green Mountain Nation was one of the five powerful countries, in terms of military strength, they were only at the bottom.
Xu Qing and her family tried to keep a low profile, but the three children were beautiful triplets, so they couldn’t keep a low profile at all.
Xu Qing was a little helpless. “Babies, I have to disguise you guys next time we go out.”
Xue’er held a candied hawthorn in one hand and the sugar figurine in the other. As she licked and bit it, and her face became covered in sugar. Then, she smiled sweetly. “Mommy, you wronged us this time. You should disguise Daddy. Daddy is clearly the most eye-catching one. They’re all after Daddy.”
“Little Hui…” Xu Qing smiled at Qiao Yanhui.
