The Villainous Classmate is My Lucky StarChapter 163 If Chi Jingxi doesnt come to find her, then shell go find Chi Jingxi (1)While in Chaoge, although Wen Yantong had felt the citys prosperity, there were shackles hidden beneath. Patrolling government officers were everywhere, and the civilians were always in a rush; unless there was a festival or performance, no one seemed to want to stand in one place for too long.But Chang'an was different. The streets of Chang'an were full of freedom. Even the style of each individuals clothes were significantly different, and so were the facial features. It almost felt as if she was in a melting pot metropolitan city. Of course, most of the people were from the same country of Shaojing. Those were the people who were loudly hawking on the street, warmly welcoming tourists from all directions.Wen Yantong struck her head out the window excitedly, unwilling to retract it back into the carriage and looked around in awe.Chi Jingxi knocked on the window frame. "Were almost near your house."Wen Yantong looked back, "Huh?"Chi Jingxi raised his eyebrow. "You don't remember where your home is?"Wen Yantong grinned and responded, "Isnt it because I hadnt come home in so long? Some roadside shops have changed, I can't recognize them anymore."There was a main road that led to the center of Chang'an City, and stretched out a couple hundred meters long. The Wen Residences House was just a right turn at the end of that road.When Wen Yantong got off the carriage, she was apprehensive and reluctant. She tiptoed to the window frame and looked in. "Little Marquis, will we have a chance to meet again later?"Since Chi Jingxi didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble, he didn't get out of the carriage. He looked out the window and replied, "If I have time, I will definitely find you.""Then what if you are always busy?" Wen Yantong pouted."Then I will snatch a moment of leisure during my busy schedule to find you." Chi Jingxi smiled and gently tapped the tip of her nose with his fingertips. "Okay. Go back quickly. You haven't been home for a long time, your parents must miss you very much, so go and spend time with them."Wen Yantong scrunched her brows together and reluctantly said, "Then its a promise. You have to come visit me, I don't dare to go to the Marquis Mansion to look for you. If I were to be caught and thrown into prison, I'd cry until I faint." Chi Jingxi laughed. Her complaint was also a likely possibility; in case something happened to Wen Yantong, the Wen Residence, a merchant family, naturally had no ability to protect her or themselves. With this thought, he simply took a palm-sized round jade from his waist and handed it to her.The jade was very light and thin, and had a snow-white color decorated with traces of warm yellow. It didnt have any impurities, except for a ruyi cloud pattern inlaid with gold.Wen Yantong accepted it unceremoniously, and grinned. "Is this a parting gift from the Little Marquis?"Chi Jingxi's eyes are full of connivance, "Keep this on you at all times. If something were to happen, take it out and display it."Wen Yantong hurriedly put the jade away, close to her body. She wanted to continue to chat, but her tiptoe couldnt hold on, so she let go of the window frame.After moving her feet a bit, Wen Yantong reached out and was about to grab the window frame again. The moment she stood on tiptoe, Chi Jingxi leaned out from the curtain slightly, and their noses almost collided.Fortunately, Chi Jingxi stopped in time. Wen Yantong's nose briefly brushed his, causing them to simultaneously freeze.Wen Yantong's heart started to beat violently, but she couldn't help laughing. She lightly touched her nose with his again and said, "Then I'm going now. Little Marquis, please get home safely.""Get Get home safely." Chi Jingxi unprecedentedly stuttered. Completely unaware of what he just reiterated, he quickly let go of the curtain in his hand, covering his face.Wen Yantong took several steps back and reluctantly looked at the curtain embroidered with delicate patterns.After all her luggage was unloaded, the Wen Residences door was knocked. When the servants in the house heard that their young lady had returned, they rushed out to carry her things inside.In fact, there werent many things, Wen Yantong just bought back a part of her rewarded satin bolts, fur pelts, gold, silver, and other precious stones jewelry, as well as the honorable imperial edict. Chi Jingxi also gave Wen Yantong some medicinal supplements for strengthening her bones. Everything, adding her own clothes and daily utensils, were all moved into the Wen Residence not long after.Wen Yantong was still staring at the departing carriage while a group of servants were already waiting by the door for her to enter.She touched the tip of her nose in a daze, a broad smile remained stuck on her face.Mo Li couldn't help reminding her from behind, "Gongzi, all the things have been moved in.""My girl!" A drawn-out cry came from inside the door. Wen Yantong turned around and saw a beautiful woman rushing towards her, waving a brocade handkerchief.Wen Yantong thought: this should be the little cannon fodder's mother.She immediately smiled, went up to meet her, and shouted loudly, "Mom!"The beautiful woman's eyes were full of tears, dripping down to the ground in clusters. "You're finally back! You've been away from home for several months. Let's stop studying at Chaoge, okay? There are many places to learn embroidery in Chang'an!"The beautiful woman hugged her, crying up a storm, so much so that Wen Yantong's also started to feel melancholy.The only thing she could do was to give all her parental love to this couple. So she patted her mothers back and said, "Mom, I just came back after a long trip. I'm starving."As soon as the beautiful woman heard that Wen Yantong hadn't eaten, she immediately led her inside. "Oh! Then lets head inside now. What are these clothes youre wearing, lets go change them into something else."Wen Yantong followed her inside and asked, "Where's dad? Isn't he at home?""He..." the woman hesitated, "should be in the back courtyard." While Wen Yantong was still trying to make sense of her new surroundings, a man, sitting on a wooden wheelchair, was pushed towards them. His right leg was wrapped in a thick plaster, but he excitedly waved his hands towards her. "Tongtong! My tongtong is back! Dad is here!"Next to the wheelchair was a knee-tall black dog. It was wagging its tail frantically, running towards Wen Yantong.Wen Yantong was not afraid of dogs, but was shocked at Wen Qin's current situation. She expressed her concern by asking, "Dad, what's wrong with your leg?"The big black dog stopped in front of her, sticking out its tongue as a gesture of friendship, and then continuously circled around her.The woman said, "A few days ago your father went out to walk the dog before dawn. His eyesight had deteriorated, and so he tripped over a rock, broke his right leg, and has been recuperating since."Wen Yantong didnt know whether to laugh or cry. They were really father and daughter, her legs also healed not too long ago.She walked over in a few strides. "It happened that when I came back from Chaoge, I brought some medicinal herbs for nourishing the bones. I will have someone brew them for Dad to drink later."After she finished speaking, Wen Yantong finally realized why Chi Jingxi gave her the medicinal supplements. She was initially puzzled her legs were already healed, so why did Chi Jingxi use the medicinal supplements? However, now she understood those medicinal supplements were not for her.Wen Qin excitedly grabbed Wen Yantong's hand, and looked his daughter up and down. When he saw that she had gained weight and her complexion was rosy, he knew that she hadnt suffered much in Chaoge. Relieved, he couldn't help smiling, "Where did you get the bone-nourishing medicinal supplements?""It was given to me by a friend of mine." Wen Yantong took over the back handle of the wheelchair, turned its direction and pushed him into the house. "But you, youre already getting up in age, why bother to walk the dog by yourself? Just leave such chores to the servants."Wen Qin puffed his chest. "How am I considered up in age?! My body is as strong as ever!"Wen Qin was only thirty-five years old. He and Madam Wen web when he was nineteen, and in the same year they were blessed with the birth of Wen Yantong. He still looked quite healthy, and with his handsome features, he and Madam Wen looked like a well paired couple.Perhaps it was because the character Wen Yantong was but just a mere cannon fodder in the book, there was no detailed setting for her family situation. As such, Wen Qin became the sole man in the book who only had one wife, with no concubines nor chambermaids.This chapter upload first at NovelBin.Com
