Han Jinnian was slightly taken aback, not expecting Chu Yu would stop her.
Unable to resist, she sulked, "Can’t I even have a bite?"
"No way!" Chu Yu said earnestly.
His eyes were filled with seriousness.
Han Jinnian thought for a mont, tilted her head, and looked at Chu Yu, "Then you can’t eat either!"
"Alright, I’ll eat the bland dishes with you!"
Han Jinnian smiled softly.
She picked so light dishes for Chu Yu, watching him eat them. She had little appetite herself, so she kept scalding dishes and serving them to Chu Yu.
Seeing Chu Yu eating joyfully, she felt exceptionally good.
Little did she know, whatever she offered, Chu Yu would eat, regardless of what it was.
This year, Han Jinnian was very happy because, after the New Year, five girls ca claiming to be Hei, Henuan, Hongye, Hongxiu, and Hongdou.
These teenage girls all greeted her with silly smiles, then cried one by one, their laughing and crying guise a bit comical, yet she felt familiarity and warmth.
These maids made her feel good, not controlling her or speaking much. Wherever she went, they followed, without dictating what she could or couldn’t do.
After several days, Chu Yu and Han Tianci ntioned they were leaving. Han Jinnian hesitated montarily before agreeing, without asking where they were going or if they’d return.
She wanted to find her past mories and herself.
She believed Chu Yu and the others would certainly help her reclaim her past.
Along the journey, Han Jinnian sat inside the carriage, gently swaying and moving on slowly. They admired lanterns in a large city midway. Chu Yu and Tianci made one themselves and bought several very beautiful, exquisite ones for her.
She no longer worried about forgetting yesterday upon waking or losing all mory after taking dicine.
She could feel her health had improved a lot.
Traveling at this leisurely pace, Chu Yu and Tianci gave her a birthday, telling her she was sixteen.
"Sixteen?"
"Yes, exactly sixteen. We’ve known each other for six full years. Although we’ve been apart during this ti, we’ve ultimately reunited, which is wonderful!"
Han Jinnian looked at Chu Yu, and after a mont, smiled gently, "Thank you!"
Chu Yu was instantly satisfied, "Sweet as honey!"
Han Jinnian later found out that this journey was to Nanjiang for her to recuperate, as her health was poor.
Many tis she wanted to urge Chu Yu to attend to his business. Looking at his extraordinary deanor, surely his identity must be remarkable. Yet whenever she tried to speak, the words caught in her throat, secretly wishing to keep him by her side.
"Can I not go to Nanjiang?"
Chu Yu was astonished, "Then where do you want to go?"
"To your ho, back to my ho, alright? You ntioned I have a mother, a grandfather; I want to go back and be with them!"
Seeing Han Jinnian speak sincerely, Chu Yu nodded cautiously, "Alright!"
Unbeknownst to him, this would disrupt the plan, making the ones Zhou Yunshen sent to pursue them in Nanjiang miss the target entirely.
In a blink, the weather beca increasingly warm. They shed heavy winter garnts, donned light sumr clothes, and Han Jinnian beca more carefree in personality and a bit spoiled due to indulgence.
Now she was clad in n’s clothing on horseback, letting the scorching sun bake her.
Chu Yu, anwhile, was dressed as a woman inside the carriage, posing as her wife, Han Tianci’s sister, while Hei, Henuan, and the others posed as servants, drawing attention as they went like a group of wealthy rchants.
The Venerable Master and five elders massaged their brows, barely able to look at their Commandery Princess causing trouble like this, unable to utter a word of reproach, rely following along in the mischief.
