Chapter 360: Chapter 360 A Reluctant Request_1

An Jing saw this and chuckled, "I’m not thirsty or hungry, so stop busying yourself. Just talk to me more, that’s better than anything else."

Xiao Changyi sat down and replied, "I prefer listening to you talk." As he spoke, he grabbed some peanuts and sunflower seeds and stuffed them into An Jing’s hands. "Eat some, it can help pass the time so you won’t be bored."

"But I also enjoy listening to you talk," An Jing said after eating a peanut. "How could I be bored with you? It’s just that these past few days have been a bit busy, and I’m actually a little tired. I’ve been restless, which is why I was lying down."

Without waiting for Xiao Changyi to reply, An Jing suddenly thought of fighting again, her eyes instantly lighting up. "Husband, let’s spar! Do you know how much I want to have a fight with you? Even if I work every day, I feel like my bones aren’t properly stretched out. It’s better to have a good fight."

Regarding An Jing bringing up the old issue again, Xiao Changyi declined without a second thought. "I won’t spar with you. Don’t think about it anymore in the future."

An Jing immediately looked at him with a pleading face. "But I want to fight. It’s been a long time since I sparred with someone. Ever since I came here, I really haven’t had a proper fight with anyone. I really want to fight so much..."

Xiao Changyi remained silent.

After a while, Xiao Changyi finally said, "Tomorrow I’ll ask Meng Zhuqing to come over so you can have your fill of fighting."

An Jing’s eyes instantly brightened. "A real fight?"

Xiao Changyi indifferently said, "You’ll hit him, and he won’t fight back; it’s all yours."

An Jing immediately wilted. "What’s the fun in that? A real, fair fight is the interesting part."

It was then that Xiao Changyi let out a sigh, clearly exasperated. "Jing Er, can we not fight?"

An Jing rarely heard Xiao Changyi use that tone; it was utterly disarming. She surrendered at once. "Alright, alright. Don’t worry, it’s not like I absolutely have to fight. It’s just that in my world, back in the day, I used to spar with my comrades all the time. Whoever won was the boss. I kind of miss it, feeling like my bones were getting reassembled after each fight. Despite the pain, it felt great."

Bones reassembling...

Xiao Changyi was silent for a moment, then unexpectedly blurted out, "Are you trying to break my heart?"

An Jing instantly felt sweet as honey and giggled, "Husband, congratulations, you’ve successfully quelled my urge to fight again~"

Xiao Changyi was still not quite satisfied and requested, "Really, don’t have these thoughts in the future."

"These sudden urges to fight are beyond my control," An Jing continued to laugh merrily. "However, you can always say something nice in the future to dispel these thoughts when they come up."

Xiao Changyi frowned. "Something nice?"

An Jing smoothed his brow while correcting herself, "Alright, alright, not something nice—your genuine feelings. Is that okay? Don’t frown. I don’t like it when you frown."

Xiao Changyi nodded. "Mhm."

An Jing suddenly laughed again. "Husband, honestly, your heartfelt words really do sound nice. Anyway, they make me super happy."

Xiao Changyi didn’t get upset or feel embarrassed; he simply said, "As long as you’re happy."

He just wanted her to be happy; he didn’t like it at all when she wasn’t.

...

The next day, not long after Xiao Changyi and An Jing had finished lunch, Li Wuyu arrived.

After paying his respects, Li Wuyu said, "Wuyu has a rather audacious request to ask of the Prince."

Xiao Changyi didn’t speak but continued to chop wood.

It was An Jing who smiled and asked, "What audacious request? Let’s hear it."

Li Wuyu then said, "Wuyu has heard that the Prince is going to teach Wang Youbao some staff techniques tomorrow. Wuyu would like to learn as well."
