Chapter 162: Bustling City
Chapter 162: Bustling City
When Lin Qingyan heard this, she did not feel the slightest bit proud or complacent. Instead, she responded secretly in her heart: Maybe I underestimated you too much.
Even though she was thinking this in her heart, she still showed a flattering smile on the surface.
"But even if you have a little more brains, it is still not enough. For example, in this action, you did not hide anything at all, and you didn't even tell your own people a thing. You acted too rashly. Humph!" Ling Yao said as she thought of the grievances her son had suffered recently. Seeing his increasingly thin appearance, she couldn't help feeling sad.
She originally had some good feelings towards Lin Qingyan, but now she felt that this woman was becoming more and more unpleasant to the eye, and could not help but snort coldly.
Seeing this, Lin Qingyan hurriedly bowed her head and admitted her mistake, "Mother-in-law is right. I was indeed too rash and reckless this time. I will definitely correct it in the future."
"So, about Nian Xiao..." Lin Qingyan continued to ask with a smile. In fact, Ling Yao had already understood her intention without waiting for her to finish her words, so she said unhappily: "Humph, you are such a useless guy, you can't even speak clearly, what can I do to you?"
"Hehe, isn't it because your majesty is too strong, mother-in-law? It's inevitable that Qingyan is in awe of you!"
We have to admit that, whether in ancient or modern society, those who are good at flattery and fawning tend to be more successful.
"Okay, stop flattering me! Take him home quickly, he can't wait."
As soon as the words fell, the tightly closed door was instantly opened, and a figure jumped into the room excitedly from outside: "Really? Mom, hahahaha, that's great!"
This person was Ling Nianxiao, who rushed in with a happy face and dancing. Lin Qingyan turned to look at him, then turned back to look at Ling Yao. Ling Yao's expression of no surprise once again made Lin Qingyan deeply feel the cunning of this prime minister who was rare in a thousand years - she actually didn't notice that Ling Nianxiao had been standing outside the door, but Ling Yao knew it very well.
"Great, Qingyan, let's go." Ling Nianxiao smiled at Ling Yao and then took Lin Qingyan's hand and pretended to walk out.
He was very strong. Lin Qingyan was pulled away by him and turned back to apologize to Ling Yao, but she saw Ling Yao looking at Ling Nianxiao with a doting face. She waved to her, indicating that she didn't need to worry and let's go.
Ling Nianxiao had been confined to the mansion for a long time, and she couldn't wait to go out for a stroll. So, after she and Lin Qingyan said goodbye to Xiao Ran in a hurry, they headed to the busiest and most prosperous street with great interest.
"Baozi, freshly baked, steaming hot buns!"
"Sir, you are here. Please enjoy your wontons."
The streets were bustling with people and cars, a very lively scene. The scene in front of Lin Qingyan reminded her of the snack streets in modern society. Although the street vendors had different cultural backgrounds, the enthusiastic smiles on their faces were exactly the same.
"Qingyan, come here quickly!"
Ever since entering this street, Ling Nianxiao has been running around like a wild horse, shouting loudly to Lin Qingyan without looking back, not worrying at all that she would not be able to keep up with him.
Looking at Ling Nianxiao's happily jumping figure, Lin Qingyan showed a doting smile and quickened her pace to catch up.
"Qingyan, I want this."
"Qingyan, I want that one more."
"Hey, what is this, boss?"
Lin Qingyan followed closely behind the lively and active Ling Nianxiao, and soon her hands were already filled with all kinds of things that Ling Nianxiao was clamoring to buy.
"Nian Xiao, can you please walk slower?"
Lin Qingyan looked helplessly at Ling Nianxiao, who was running forward with curiosity and jumping.
The vendor who had just collected Lin Qingyan's money grinned at her and said flatteringly, "This little husband is so cute and smart because of your pampering."
Lin Qingyan didn't respond when she heard this, but continued to follow Ling Nianxiao.
After hearing Lin Qingyan's cry, Ling Nianxiao turned around and looked at her, pouting his lips high, and muttered, "It's obviously you who walked too slowly, okay."
"Okay, okay, I'm the one who walks too slowly. Nian Xiao, why don't we find a place to rest for a while? Aren't you hungry?"
In fact, Lin Qingyan didn't feel tired, but her stomach was rumbling, and she was worried that Ling Nianxiao was hungry. She rushed out in a hurry this morning and didn't even have time to eat breakfast. It was almost noon, and the sun was scorching overhead. It was not a wise idea to go out shopping in such weather.
"Hurrah!"
Ling Nianxiao raised his eyebrows, turned around and grinned at Lin Qingyan: "Qingyan, I know a place that sells delicious wontons. Come with me quickly."
Watching Ling Nianxiao walking quickly through the crowd, Lin Qingyan shook her head and followed him helplessly.
Neither of them knew that Ling Nianxiao's ostentatious smile just now was imprinted in the eyes of a person. Looking at where the two were going, that person followed them silently.
"Uncle Zhang, give me two bowls of wontons." A clear young voice sounded.
The wonton stand owner, who was busy walking back and forth in front of the dining table, turned around when he heard the familiar voice and said, "Hey, Xiao Ling, you haven't been here for a long time. Two bowls of wontons, wait, uncle will serve them to you right away."
As soon as the two sat down, they heard Ling Nianxiao chattering non-stop: "Qingyan, let me tell you, the wontons made by Uncle Zhang are guaranteed to be something you'll want to eat again after you've eaten them."
As he spoke, he seemed to think of the delicious feeling and took a sip.
The cute and exaggerated look made Lin Qingyan look forward to this bowl of wontons: "Oh? Really? Hahaha, then I must try the food recommended by the greedy cat."
When Ling Nianxiao heard these slightly doting and teasing words, he glared at Lin Qingyan coquettishly and lowered his head.
"Hahaha, don't be angry, Nian Xiao, I was wrong. I shouldn't have called you a greedy cat."
Although she had only known Ling Nianxiao for a short time, she still didn't understand her man? After experiencing so many worlds, she had already regarded this man as her own.
Sure enough, Ling Nianxiao, who had lowered his head, heard her mention the word "little greedy cat" again. He raised his head, his cheeks slightly hot, not sure whether he was shy or angry.
He puffed up his cheeks and stared at Lin Qingyan with what he thought was a fierce look.
This cute look made Lin Qingyan suddenly feel anxious. She suppressed this familiar feeling, raised her hand and pinched Ling Nianxiao's cheek, and whispered, "I was wrong, Nianxiao, I will let you deal with me when I get back."
