Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 1781: Chapter 1782: There’s One Thing You’re Not Good At

”Alright! Of course it’s alright!” Gong Juechen heard Ye Zhi say this and immediately wanted to happily give Ye Zhi a kiss, but Ye Zhi pushed him away, not letting him.

”The child is here, keep it appropriate!” Ye Zhi warned irritably.

Gong Juechen glanced at his precious daughter, who was happily playing nearby, and said somewhat aggrievedly, ”She’s playing, she won’t be watching us.”

Ye Zhi’s face was somewhat flushed, but she still retorted irritably, ”Don’t push your luck, if you keep this up, I’ll really get angry with you!”

”Alright, alright, I won’t do it again, don’t be mad.” Gong Juechen immediately said in a flattering tone.

Ye Zhi thought for a moment before softening her tone and speaking gently, ”From now on, I won’t feel like you owe her anything, but she is a soldier I brought up with the Boss, and we’ve always had a pretty good relationship, counted as friends. Seeing as she’s my friend, hurry to the Imperial City and see if her child can be saved, alright?”

”Originally it wouldn’t be alright, but you just made it seem like I owe her something. But now it’s alright, not because she’s your friend, but because I promised you I’d do as you say.” Then, he playfully lowered his voice, ”If you give me a kiss, I’ll immediately go to Imperial Capital~”

Hearing this, Ye Zhi didn’t care whether her precious daughter was present and quickly gave Gong Juechen a peck on the lips, then pushed him outward, ”Then hurry and go.”

After a pause, she added, ”If you’re not back in ten days, I’ll take Lele to the Imperial City to find you.”

Gong Juechen looked pained, ”Doesn’t this mean we have to be separated for at least ten days? You should come with me.” He didn’t want to be apart from her at all.

”I need to bring Lele, Lele can’t handle rushing so quickly on the road, can’t go with you immediately, and Jade Jade’s situation is urgent, you hurry and go first. If you can’t return immediately, don’t rush back, after ten days I’ll take Lele to find you.”

Ten days is enough time for him to ride back and forth on a fast horse. If he doesn’t return after ten days, it surely means he has to stay in the Imperial City for a while...

Thinking like this, Gong Juechen agreed, ”Alright then, at that time let the Right and Left Protectors escort you and Lele.”

”I know what to do, you just go quickly and confidently.”

”Hmm~” Taking advantage of Ye Zhi’s lack of attention, Gong Juechen stole a kiss from her before running to the stables to head to the Imperial City.

...

While Gong Juechen was on his way, it rained, causing him to take four days to reach the Imperial City.

An Jing, upon seeing Gong Juechen, quickly asked him to go to Tobanya’s courtyard to check on her, mentioning Tobanya was extremely weak now, and her pulse was weak too.

Gong Juechen walked quickly with An Jing towards Tobanya’s courtyard, joking as he went, ”Jingjing, you and Zhizhi have one flaw.”

”What’s our flaw?” An Jing asked instinctively.

”Your hearts are too kind~”

An Jing paused, then laughed, ”Do you expect us to watch Jade Jade miscarry? Sorry, we can’t do that.”

”Precisely because you can’t, you sought me, and my Zhizhi asked me to come. Being away from my Zhizhi for so many days, I really miss her, and I’m worried Lele might forget about me as her dad, Lele is still so little.”

An Jing was too lazy to banter with him further, so she didn’t continue the topic, instead urging him, ”Hurry, Jade Jade is still waiting, all our hopes rest on you now.”
