Chapter 329: The Scholar Who Married into the Imperial Examination (7)
Although Hang's father forbade Hang Huaijing to go out, on the next day, Hang Huaijing still tried his best to sneak out, but this time he didn't bring Yuan Le with him.
Jiang Zui knew that Hang Huaijing had returned, so he ran to the gate of Moyang Academy to pick him up after school.
As soon as Hang Huaijing got off the carriage, he saw Jiang Zui standing at the gate of the courtyard. His eyes lit up instantly, with a big smile on his face. He picked up the food box and ran towards Jiang Zui.
After running a few steps, Hang Huaijing remembered the food in the lunch box and his pace suddenly slowed down.
Jiang Zui did not stand there waiting, but strode towards Hang Huaijing, took the food box from him, and said, "Don't be so anxious."
Then, he asked doubtfully, "Just you? Where's the person next to you? It's dangerous to go out alone."
Hang Huaijing said indifferently: "It's okay, let's go in quickly."
He didn't want to tell Jiang Zui that he had sneaked out.
Jiang Zui didn't ask any more questions. He took the lunch box and walked towards the middle canteen side by side with Hang Huaijing.
On the way, Hang Huaijing hesitated for a long time, but still told Jiang Zui, "Jiang Zui, I...I told my father about our relationship, and my father...he suspected that you were a liar, and said that you didn't like me and wanted to be with me because of the Hang family."
After a pause, he continued, "But don't worry, I believe you. You are definitely not a liar, and it doesn't matter even if you are."
Hearing this, Jiang Zui's heart softened and he teased, "Jing'er, are you really not worried? What if I'm really a liar?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hang Huaijing raised his head instantly, his eyes widened, staring straight at Jiang Zui, his eyes full of shock, and said in a trembling voice: "Jiang... Jiang Zui you..."
Before Hang Huaijing could finish his words, Jiang Zuizhan smiled and explained, "I'm sorry, I scared you.
I'm not a liar, I really like you."
As soon as these words were spoken, the surprise and confusion on Hang Huaijing's face turned into happiness and joy in the next second.
Jiang Zui said calmly: "Don't worry about your father-in-law and mother-in-law, I will take care of it."
With just one sentence, Hang Huaijing dispelled the worries he had been feeling since last night.
"Ah."
The two chatted as they walked, and soon they arrived at the cafeteria.
As soon as I entered, everyone's eyes turned to me.
Jiang Zui is very famous in Moyang Academy, especially for the other party's bad luck.
She could have passed the imperial examination and married the son of the dean of the academy, but because she had to observe mourning for her father, she was forced to stop taking the imperial examination, and even her marriage was ruined.
The students who were classmates with Jiang Zui at that time either got married early or passed the imperial examination and started their own careers.
Only Jiang Zui was left, standing still.
Now, although he has returned to the academy, no one knows whether he can still be as lucky as before and pass the imperial examination and become the top scholar.
Jiang Zui was so clear about this, and it turned out that a boy came to bring him food yesterday. Everyone heard from other sources that this boy was from the Hang family.
Oh my god, the Hang family?!
That’s the Hang family!
Although the Hang family is a wealthy business family, Jiang Zui has fallen to the point of becoming a son-in-law? !
Jiang Zui simply ignored him and pulled Hang Huaijing to sit in the corner.
Hang Huaijing wanted to act more virtuous in front of Jiang Zui and took the initiative to set the table for dinner, but how could Hang Huaijing do that?
In addition, when getting off the carriage, Hang Huaijing moved a little too much and some of the soup in the dish spilled out.
Seeing this, Jiang Zui quickly took it and said, "Let me do it."
Hang Huaijing's ears turned red with shame.
Hang Huaijing bought two servings of food at a restaurant outside. When he came out, he had not eaten yet, and as he was almost late, he asked the waiter to pack up two servings.
After Jiang Zui finished, he said, "I can't finish so many dishes. Jing'er, you eat too."
"Yeah." Hang Huaijing replied in a low voice.
Seeing that Hang Huaijing only ate vegetarian dishes and not meat, Jiang Zui thought that he was picky about food, so he put a piece of meat into Hang Huaijing's bowl with a chopstick, and said in a slightly educational voice, "Don't be picky about food."
"I...I..." Hang Huaijing subconsciously wanted to explain, hesitated for a long time, and finally did not refute, "Oh, okay."
Having said that, Hang Huaijing picked up the meat in his bowl and started eating, with a hint of joy in his eyes.
He is not a picky eater!
His favorite food is meat, he just doesn't want to show that he is a glutton in front of Jiang Zui.
Unexpectedly, I was misunderstood by the other party.
Jiang Zui raised the corner of his mouth when he saw Hang Huaijing eating meat.
The two of them didn't talk, just ate.
But there was a romantic atmosphere in the air around both of them.
At this moment, a sharp voice broke the atmosphere.
"Brother Jiang, Master Hang."
Zhang Shili and Shi Ziwei walked up to Jiang Zui and Hang Huaijing with a smile on their faces, and then sat down directly. Zhang Shili, looking very familiar, said, "What a coincidence, I didn't expect to run into you here too."
Jiang Zui and Shi Ziwei nodded to each other.
"Brother Shi."
"Brother Jiang."
Afterwards, Zhang Shili accidentally saw the food on the table, and with a tone of amazement and admiration, as well as jealousy that others could not detect, he said:
"Mr. Hang, I didn't expect your cooking skills to be so good. This meal looks delicious. Brother Jiang is so lucky."
Being praised by Zhang Shili, Hang Huaijing's mouth stiffened, and he explained embarrassedly: "This...I didn't make it, I bought it in the restaurant."
"Ah?!" Zhang Shili said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mr. Hang, I... I don't know..."
Humph! He knew that a guy like Hang Huaijing had never done any housework, so how could he cook?
Then, Zhang Shili took out the meal she had made from the lunch box and showed off to Hang Huaijing, "Mr. Hang, I made this myself. Although it is not as good as the food you buy from restaurants outside, it is also a token of my love for my husband.
How about you try my cooking?"
Hang Huaijing was a naive person, so how could he understand the hidden meaning of Zhang Shili's words? Seeing this, Jiang Zui helped and said, "Since Mr. Shi is doing this for Brother Shi, it is naturally Brother Shi who has the final say. How can we judge?"
Hang Huaijing clenched his fist, gritted his teeth, and said silently in his heart:
No!
He also cooks for Jiang Zui.
Wait until tomorrow, no... wait until he gets back, he will learn to cook.
The smile on Zhang Shili's face froze instantly, then quickly recovered, moved the food in front of Shi Ziwei, and said coquettishly, "Husband."
When Shi Ziwei heard the blush on Zhang Shili's face, he smiled happily and said quickly, "The food cooked by my husband is delicious."
Hang Huaijing, who was so carefree, actually envied the relationship between Shi Ziwei and Zhang Shili. He glanced at Jiang Zui and sighed, "Shi Xiucai and Shi Fulang have such a good relationship."
"Mr. Hang, don't be envious. Brother Jiang is a very nice person too." Zhang Shili teased when he heard this.
Hang Huaijing nodded as a matter of course and replied, "Well, Jiang Zui is indeed a good person, otherwise... I would never fall in love with him."
