The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 154

Chapter 154: Chapter 139, Apology_1

Zhou Chengye and Yan Wenxiu immediately wanted to see Xiao Yeyang after returning to the Academy, but unfortunately, they didn’t see anyone, not even Dong Yuanxuan.

After asking around, they learned that the Little Prince hadn’t returned to the Academy at all.

Yan Wenkai wondered, “If he hasn’t returned to the Academy, where did the Little Prince go?”

Zhou Chengye knew more than the Yan brothers and said, “He might have gone to the Royal Palace.” Previously, when the Rui Prince came to Zhongzhou Province, he also stayed at the Palace.

“Hmm?”

The three Yan brothers all looked over at once.

Zhou Chengye was puzzled, “Why are you looking at me like that?”

Yan Wenkai, who couldn’t keep things to himself, immediately asked, “Isn’t the Little Prince’s residence supposed to be at the Academy?”

Zhou Chengye shook his head, “Of course not, the accommodations at the Academy are only for the convenience of the Little Prince’s studies and classes. In the past, during breaks, the Little Prince would return to the Palace.”

Yan Wenkai: “Where is the Palace then? How come we haven’t heard about it?”

Zhou Chengye was surprised, “You don’t know?”

The three Yan brothers shook their heads in unison.

Thinking of the Yan family’s situation, Zhou Chengye patiently explained, “The Palace is built on the main peak of Wuhua Mountain.”

Yan Wenkai was astonished, “Wuhua Mountain, isn’t that very close to the Academy?”

Zhou Chengye nodded, “Indeed quite close. Wangyue Academy is built on the outer peak at the periphery of Wuhua Mountain, not far from the main peak. By boat, it would take less than half an hour to get there.”

Yan Wenkai: “Since it’s so close, then let’s hurry to find the Little Prince.”

Zhou Chengye looked at him speechlessly, “That’s the Royal Palace, a restricted area. Entering without being summoned is a capital offense that could lead to execution.”

Upon hearing this, Yan Wenkai immediately shrank his neck, “Then forget it, we’ll see him when the Little Prince returns to the Academy.”

Zhou Chengye, although anxious to apologize, knew that this was all they could do.

…

The main peak of Wuhua Mountain.

For convenience of entering and leaving, as well as for leisure, the Royal Palace was built at the foot of the mountain, and at the top, a grand villa—Meilin Villa—was constructed.

Behind the villa, the red plum trees on the mountain were ready to burst into bloom.

Under the plum trees, a graceful and strikingly beautiful woman was sitting at a stone table, selecting plum branches that had just been picked, ready to place them into the green porcelain vase prepared early on the table. _{frёewebnoѵēl.com}

“So, is Yangyang upset because Zhou family’s eldest grandson cued the wrong play?”

The beautiful woman’s eyebrows carried an air of authority that could not be ignored, her tone was lazy, yet laced with an inviolable majesty.

A few meters away, a person dressed in black was kneeling on one knee, respectfully keeping his head low, “Yes.”

The beautiful woman smiled, and in an instant, it seemed as if all the red plums on the mountain paled in comparison to her, “Zhou Zhengyao is a careful man; otherwise, he wouldn’t have retired safely from the position of Grand Secretary. It seems like this incident must have been an accident.”

“Forget it, there are not many friends for Yangyang here. It turns out that the Zhou boy managed to catch Yangyang’s eye. We’ll let this matter go. There’s no need to pursue it further.”

The man in black: “Understood.”

The beautiful woman’s gaze roamed as she spoke with a smile, “By the way, tell me about that little girl from the Yan Family. Yangyang is usually quick to anger and quick to forgive, but this time, after returning, he locked himself in the room and hasn’t come out. It must have been the influence of that little girl.”

The man in black immediately recounted the conversation between the Little Prince and the Yan family girl at the Zhou Residence, not missing a single word.

The beautiful woman listened intently, and when she heard the Yan family girl’s views on “The Tale of a Virtuous Wife,” a hint of surprise flickered across her eyes.

“The fault lies not in the Madam, but in a scumbag father?”

“Scumbag?”

The beautiful woman pondered the term, her lips slowly curled up, “Quite fitting, isn’t it just a scumbag?”

Then, a trace of melancholy crossed her eyes.

“Alright, you may leave now. Make sure to protect the Little Prince well! As for other matters… don’t concern yourself with them.”

“This servant will take his leave!”

As soon as the man in black’s voice fell, he quickly disappeared from the spot.

The beautiful woman placed the selected plum branches into the vase and motioned for the maid to come over, “Go, send this to the lower Palace.”

“Yes!” the maid carefully carried the vase away.

Once the person left, the beautiful woman stood up, her gaze settling on the mountainside full of red plums. Her expression became somewhat forlorn. What was the use of a nice view when there was only her to appreciate it?

…

The Academy.

Zhou Chengye anxiously waited until the third day, when he finally heard that Xiao Yeyang had returned to the Academy. Right after class, he immediately took Yan Wenxiu to pay a visit.
