Chapter 192: Chapter 192 Damn, He Fooled Me

The claws clung to the man’s fingertips, and with his aid, finally flipped over.

Cui Yun was in a good mood as he played with Xue Tuan’s soft paw pads.

Xue Tuan curled up its head tightly, its tail also shrank, looking from afar like a round ball.

"All day long you’re just teasing the cat, yet I don’t see it hindering your studies. I really can’t understand, your brother runs Marquis Yangling Mansion, why don’t you just slack off with me?"

Listen, what kind of talk is this?

"Are you advising me to degenerate?"

Cui Yun gave a half-smile.

Indeed, he didn’t need to try too hard, but he also didn’t want to become useless.

Be it a legitimate son or a legitimate second son, either should support the lintel of Marquis Yangling Mansion.

His ambitions were not grand, as long as he could help Cui Bai and avoid trouble for Marquis Yangling Mansion, living freely and unrestrained was enough.

Ji Ge choked up.

"Think about it, forget it. If your brother heard my words, he’d probably come looking for me trouble."

Who doesn’t know how much Cui Bai values this younger brother.

How could Ji Ge, who is in the Emperor’s family, not envy this?

"He still has high expectations for you."

"Naturally." Cui Yun responded with uncommon pleasure.

Ji Ge: "After he passed the Imperial Examination in first place, he immediately followed your father to the military camp, and now he has established a certain reputation. I hear, does he also want you to top the Imperial Examination just like him?"

Ji Ge spoke dully, one would think from his tone that it was easy to achieve.

But Cui Yun was serious.

"Most ancestors of the Marquis Yangling Mansion were military generals, Daddy adopted the legacy, and my brother did the same, but actually his literary grace is not inferior to military strategies."

Undoubtedly Cui Bai regretted this.

Cui Yun: "The world is full of scholars and poets, I am not as good as my brother, topping the examination is indeed difficult for me. However, achieving a high rank is not out of the question."

Ji Ge clicked his tongue twice.

In another’s mouth, those words might come off as bragging, but when Cui Yun said them, he couldn’t refute them.

Damn, he got me.

"If you really listen to him that much, why not send Xue Tuan to him?"

Last time, Cui Yun left Xue Tuan in the carriage, and Cui Bai did not rush to send it back; instead, he took it along to the Qiao family.

Cui Bai was like a fish in water in the military camp, but still somewhat lacking in front of Miss Qiao.

He brought many medicinal herbs to see Mr. Qiao. As usual, a good moment of consolation.

Cui Bai’s intentions were clear.

To avoid suspicion, Miss Qiao left the room after serving tea.

After Cui Bai left Mr. Qiao’s room, he saw the consistently gentle and reticent Miss Qiao squatting down, carefully lifting Xue Tuan with a smiling corner of her mouth.

Xue Tuan, prideful in temper, became exceptionally sullen after being left by Cui Yun, but now, it obediently nestled in her arms.

"Young Master Cui, what is it called?"

Cui Bai: "Xue Tuan."

"That’s a very good name."

Miss Qiao obviously liked it a lot. She couldn’t bear to let go.

She had seen many wild cats, all fierce, occasionally stealing meat from the chopping board, but she had never seen such a beautiful cat.

"Is this cat raised by Young Master Cui?"

The girl’s smile lingered, as though she was smiling with him.

Cui Bai, as if possessed, asked: "Do you like it?"

"I like it."

The man uncharacteristically bewitched: "If Miss Qiao is willing to accept me, then it will also be your cat."

Thus, once back at the residence, he sought out Cui Yun. Intending to have Xue Tuan transferred to Miss Qiao.

Usually Cui Yun, who always fulfills his brother’s requests, for the first time refused.

"Last time I told my brother, you shouldn’t always court the lady with excessive favors, you brother didn’t listen, so I didn’t advise further, but wanting Xue Tuan is absolutely impossible."

"Are you trying to trap me for the lady’s sake?"

Cui Bai was quite generous.

"Then, lend me a period of time. Last time, the good horse you talked about, I’ll find a way to look for it. If you have any other requests, just mention them together."

Cui Yun didn’t take the bait. Holding the drowsy Xue Tuan, he spoke forthrightly.

"Brother sending a horse is a brotherly and respectful act between us; talking conditions might damage our brotherhood."

Cui Bai understood.

Cui Yun won’t lend the cat, not even for a day.

But he also wants the fine horse!

Cui Bai: ...

He softly and helplessly called out Cui Yun’s childhood name: "Weizhen."

Cui Yun remained unmoved.

"There are cats from vassal states in the palace, all with blue eyes. I’ve seen them and they’re well trained. I’ll think of a way to get one for brother."

Cui Bai was interested. Still, he hesitated.

Soon, he rejected the idea.

After all, not every cat can be as clever as Xue Tuan.

How could an ordinary cat please Cui Yun?

This was also the reason why Ji Ge was questioning Cui Yun at the moment.

"Brother, father is returning tonight. I fear your refusal of the Empress Dowager’s arranged marriage might..."

Cui Bai smiled: "Fear not."

At the moment, Cui Yun was casually playing with Xue Tuan’s little paws.

Xue Tuan, after enduring for a while, could not stand it anymore and ’smack’, hit his hand.

To express her annoyance, she didn’t forget to stand her fur on end and bare her teeth at him as a threat.

The kitten was still young. Although feisty, it was endearingly cute.

Cui Yun raised his eyebrows and poked her head with his fingertip. She lost her balance and toppled over again.

He obviously responded to Ji Ge with pleasure.

"Young Master Cui, as the legitimate son, possesses both literary and martial skills. There is nothing difficult in this world if he desires it. He should rely on his own abilities, why bother pleasing a girl through others?"

Ji Ge was almost convinced.

Just admit that you’re petty!

Ji Ge spoke out, "What do you know? If I meet a girl I like one day, and she asks me to give her my heart, I would willingly do so."

Cui Yun looked at him oddly.

He truly thought Ji Ge was crazy.

The young man leaned lazily back.

Ji Ge: "Wouldn’t you be willing?"

Cui Yun ignored him.

Shen Hua heard the interesting topic.

She stopped swishing her tail and didn’t prepare to lash out at Cui Yun. Instead, she obediently lay beside his hand, looking up at him.

Cui Yun looked down.

"Hungry?"

Xue Tuan rubbed her belly but then shook her head.

"In a few days, I’ll have the kitchen prepare beef porridge for you to mush."

Xue Tuan hesitated for a while.

She really didn’t want to drink just goat milk anymore.

Nodded.

Cui Yun knew Xue Tuan had a sweet tooth. She had even secretly stolen pastries before. He could only keep varying the meals to tempt her appetite.

"Soon we’re going to the Xuan Residence, I’ll take you fishing. It’ll be good to make fish soup for you."

This... so embarrassing.

Words of Nanny Fang still echoed in her ears.

She continued to nod.

Watching the barrier-free interaction between man and cat, Ji Ge had a strange look in his eyes. He recalled the strange tale of a fox demon transforming into a human to drain men of their essence blood from the storybook he read over the past few days.

His eyes shifted, staring intently at the grumpy Xue Tuan.

"If one day Xue Tuan becomes a girl, just say if you’d be willing to rip out your heart for her."

Cui Yun didn’t bother with such a ridiculous question.

He just continued to gaze at the soft cat.

"Is it that you don’t want to see the Seventh Prince anymore?"

Xue Tuan indeed disliked Ji Ge.

Thus, she eagerly nodded three times.

Cui Yun had no objections.

"Alright, I will ask him to leave immediately."

Ji Ge: ...
