In Love With My Fierce Farming Wife!
Chapter 847: What exactly do you like about me? I’ll change it!

Su Pan’er didn’t believe it at all!

"While he was being all lovey-dovey with you, he secretly sent people to deal with me in the capital again and again!"

Jun Ruochen laughed heartily but enunciated each word deliberately, "Thanks to your dear husband, your dear sir, his reach is sky-high, with spies planted all over Shengjing. These past years, I have had a hard time in Court. He deserves much credit for that!"

"Really? That sounds interesting! But this is probably what they call ’an eye for an eye’! Do you know how sad he was in his heart when you treated him that way back then? No, you wouldn’t know!" Su Pan’er looked at him with contempt.

Back then, the way Jun Ruochen dealt with Qin Yi had caught him completely off guard!

When he later spoke to her about it, although he made light of it, Su Pan’er still understood his inner heart.

Qin Yi was disappointed with the Jun Ruochen before him!

His words silenced Jun Ruochen.

He even stopped eating the meat skewers, gazing blankly at the leaking roof tile above his head, and didn’t speak for a long time.

Su Pan’er didn’t say much either. She silently finished off the grilled meat, drank another bowl of water, and sat in the outer room in a daze.

By nightfall, the downpour showed no sign of stopping.

Seeing Jun Ruochen fast asleep, Su Pan’er braved the rain and went out for a while.

As soon as she left, Jun Ruochen opened his eyes and stared at the night sky motionless.

When Su Pan’er returned, she took a long look at him with his eyes open but didn’t speak. Instead, she cooked with a half-broken pot.

Every valuable thing in the household had been taken except for this half-broken iron pot, which she found in a corner, just perfect for cooking porridge.

Jun Ruochen was injured, and eating grilled meat was not conducive to his recovery.

So this time, she brought back a small bag of rice. But her culinary skills were lacking; she intended to cook vegetable porridge, yet she used too much rice, and the vegetable leaves were overcooked. It was so thick it could be eaten with chopsticks, and to make matters worse, the bottom of the half-broken pot even scorched!

Such an outcome vexed Su Pan’er immensely!

Yet it made Jun Ruochen laugh again, "It turns out, there are things you’re not good at, too!"

"I’m human, not a deity. Since I’m human, naturally there are things I’m not good at. I’m not only bad at cooking but also at women’s red, and I’m not proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, or painting!"

Su Pan’er wished she could belittle herself and stomp herself into the soil.

"What does it matter that you’re not good at these things? You are you, unique and irreplaceable!"

Jun Ruochen said leisurely, evidently not deterred by her few words.

This annoyed Su Pan’er somewhat. She scooped up a bowl of what was unclear if it was porridge or rice, and set it heavily in front of Jun Ruochen, "You should consider yourself lucky to have something to eat and yet you prattle on! Perhaps, I should starve you for a couple of meals?"

But Jun Ruochen just stared into her eyes for a long time without looking away.

Finally, he reached out to take the bowl, "If you wish, I wouldn’t mind going hungry for a day or two."

Su Pan’er was very impatient!

"Hey, I’m curious, what exactly do you like about me? I’ll change! Isn’t that enough?"

"I like that you don’t like me. Go ahead and change!"

Jun Ruochen cheerfully picked up the chopsticks and continued to eat the vegetable porridge from the bowl as if it was the most delicious food in the world, while Su Pan’er stood by stiffly with a sullen face.

For the first time in her life, Su Pan’er felt that this man indeed had the ability to frustrate someone to death without recompense.

She angrily picked up the bowl and shoveled a mouthful of the vegetable porridge into her mouth. Upon tasting it, she nearly spat it out!

The rice in the porridge was undercooked and had a burnt taste; the vegetable leaves were like ragweed. The porridge was too thick, dry and watery at the same time; this... this was simply unbearable!

Su Pan’er held a mouthful of food, not knowing whether to spit it out or swallow it, she froze in place.

Looking up to meet Jun Ruochen, who was eating with satisfaction and cheer, she silently turned her head toward the door and hastily swallowed the food in the bowl before quickly putting down the bowl and chopsticks.

Jun Ruochen, however, ate leisurely, continuing with two bowls of rice, until Su Pan’er glared at him not to serve him anymore, then he reluctantly withdrew his gaze.

Jun Ruochen’s injuries were severe, and while Su Pan’er had no intention of taking his life, she also intentionally delayed treating his wounds.

Sitting at the doorway, looking out at the quiet night shrouded by the rain curtain, Su Pan’er’s mind was in turmoil, almost staying awake until dawn.

Jun Ruochen, on the other hand, slept soundly.

When Su Pan’er had him get up the next day, he was still sleeping soundly.

"Stop sleeping, it’s time to get up and set out!"

Two days had flashed by and there was no knowing whether those people had brought Little Yanyan or not?

Jun Ruochen’s body ached everywhere, yet he bit his teeth and silently got up following Su Pan’er’s orders.

"Here, change into these clothes."

Su Pan’er directly threw him a set of clothes.

It was the uniform of an ordinary soldier. Enduring the pain, Jun Ruochen changed into it and followed Su Pan’er out of the hut they had temporarily stayed in for two days.

Once they left the hut, Jun Ruochen realized that they had not left the small city but were instead deep in a small alley not far from the City Lord’s Mansion.

One had to say, Su Pan’er really was bold and skillful!

The soldiers were probably still running around blindly, searching everywhere for them, never imagining that they were hiding right under their noses.

"Huh? Why are you going this way? This isn’t the way out of the city."

Seeing the direction was off, Jun Ruochen instinctively called out.

"Who told you I was leaving the city? Hehe!"

Su Pan’er pushed him, urging him to keep moving forward. Jun Ruochen wanted to speak again, but after thinking it over, he closed his mouth and followed Su Pan’er as they strutted along all the way to the base of a corner wall where they stopped.

"Tell me, do you think your men have gone to set up an ambush at Three Mile Hill outside the city by now? Are they thinking of wiping me out in one fell swoop?"

Su Pan’er spoke leisurely, her face bearing a captivating smile.

"Probably."

Jun Ruochen glanced at the tall wall, uncertain of Su Pan’er’s intentions.

Unexpectedly, Su Pan’er quickly cleared his doubts.

"As for the outside of the city, just like you said, only you know where Little Yanyan is. Even if they went, they are probably just preparing traps. Why don’t you accompany me back to the City Lord’s Mansion to find Little Yanyan? How about it?"

Where exactly was Little Yanyan?

These past two days, Su Pan’er had been contemplating this very question.

Thinking it over, she felt that Jun Ruochen probably hadn’t lied to her. Little Yanyan must still be in the City Lord’s Mansion because Jun Ruochen was someone with a great lack of trust and would absolutely not confide in any unexpected ally.

Therefore, he would not entrust Little Yanyan to anyone else’s care.

Right now, Little Yanyan had to be in some safe place, waiting for her to come to the rescue!

Now, it was time for her to save her.

"Let’s go, we’re going in!"

Su Pan’er, clutching his clothes, leaped back into the City Lord’s Mansion.
