Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss

Just as Ling Chuxi was about to beat up Lan Xinyu, Aunt Wang shouted with a loud voice that could overturn the rooftop, “Miss! How could you fight with a guest over food? There is still more food here! Why are you so disobedient? You’re not a child anymore! How could you be so protective of your food? This is just too ill-mannered…”

Her voice was so sharp that it almost shattered Ling Chuxi’s eardrums. Turning around, she saw Aunt Wang standing with her arms crossed. She was looking at Ling Chuxi angrily and lamenting how immature she was. Aunt Wang’s posture even indicated that she was about to continue nagging.

Ling Chuxi immediately raised her hand to stop Aunt Wang from using her vocal attack. She only quieted down when she was sure that Ling Chuxi would not fight with Lan Xinyu for the bun.

“I will beat you up later,” said Ling Chuxi, her voice dripping with hatred. She moved her chopsticks towards another bun on the plate.

“Who’s afraid of you?” replied Lan Xinyu as she smugly put the bun she won from their little spat into her mouth.

After breakfast, Aunt Wang started to prepare to leave. Ling Chuxi secretly grinned, eager to take this opportunity to give Lan Xinyu a good beating. However, Lan Xinyu suddenly acted very helpful and decided to accompany Aunt Wang to buy groceries!

Watching Lan Xinyu’s back as she left, Ling Chuxi cursed out loud, “F*ck!”

‘You sure are cunning. If you’d stayed back, I’d have beaten you up.’

After Aunt Wang left, Ling Chuxi took the herbs Lan Xinyu brought over and prepared to refine pills. She actually knew why Master Lan instructed Lan Xinyu to personally deliver the items. Wasn’t it because he wanted Ling Chuxi to polish Lan Xinyu’s skills? But was there really a need for her to follow Ling Chuxi so closely?

‘She actually tried to snatch my bun! Intolerable! Alright, I will help you to polish up Lan Xinyu!’

Gritting her teeth, Ling Chuxi proceeded to refine the pill while simultaneously making plans on how to beat up Lan Xinyu.

This time, Ling Chuxi was refining the Xiao Huan Pill, a pill that was excellent for internal injury recovery. The ingredients for it were not considered rare, but the refining procedure was still quite tedious.

However, to Ling Chuxi, this was just a small matter. Carefully controlling the fire and paying attention to the duration, Ling Chuxi very quickly refined a small bottle of Xiao Huan Pills. She did not even fail once. This success rate was something that no one could surpass.

Taking the pills, Ling Chuxi hooked Little White around her neck before heading to the Ling family’s ancestral court. On the way, she saw Lan Xinyu returning alone. Ling Chuxi’s eyes lit up as she approached to beat her up.

“Wait a moment!” said Lan Xinyu.

She was standing still with a serious expression on her face, halting Ling Chuxi from approaching. Both her hands were behind her back, and her stance was as if she was getting ready to attack.

Ling Chuxi also turned serious. Lan Xinyu had a killer move!

Lan Xinyu violently took out a big bag of things from behind her. “This is for you!”

Ling Chuxi was shocked to death!

The big bag in Lan Xinyu’s hand was filled with good food! Roasted duck, braised meat, chestnut cakes, glutinous rice balls, smoked rabbit meat… all of these were Shi Qu Town’s famous delicacies!

…

Ling Chuxi happily munched on the glutinous rice ball in her hands while Lan Xinyu followed alongside her, hugging the big bag of things.

“Hmm, you are very smart and have done the right thing. I will not beat you up anymore,” said Ling Chuxi cheerfully.

Lan Xinyu quietly turned her head away as she secretly lamented, ‘The words grandfather said were actually true. Delicacies are Ling Chuxi’s fatal weakness.’

From the corner of her eye, Ling Chuxi spotted snow on Lan Xinyu that she had not yet brushed off. The corner of her lips quirked upwards into a smile. Actually, she knew that Lan Xinyu had rushed through the night to deliver the herbs, and she was also well aware of Master Lan’s painstaking efforts.

‘Forget it. Seeing as how Master Lan is undertaking such a huge task, I’ll let Lan Xinyu follow by my side for a period of time. As for how much she can change, that would depend on herself.’
