CHAPTER 546: 546: YOUNG MASTER, IS THERE ANYTHING YOU NEED?

The car had been driving for about an hour.

The destination was a small hill within the Academy, known for its beautiful scenery, dense with green trees, a vast natural flat area surrounded by towering pines, cypresses, and various ancient trees, with a small stream flowing nearby. It was the perfect spot for a picnic.

However, the number of people from the Academy was large, with several buses arriving.

Driving towards the hill in groups, it would probably take a while to reach the destination.

The mountain road ascended, and the ride inside the car became bumpy.

The seats were shaking quite a bit, and Gu Tong leaned on Li Yan’s shoulder, her eyebrows slightly furrowed...

Li Yan noticed the little woman’s movement and also furrowed his brows accordingly.

With so many people in the car, he couldn’t ask the driver to slow down.

Therefore, he braced himself against the window with one hand, and with one leg, he propped against the seat in front, reducing some of the jolts.

In the front seat, an officer sat there, suddenly feeling some movement from behind.

He knew the Devil King was sitting at the back, so he immediately turned and said, "Earl... is there something?"

He mistakenly thought the Devil King had something to call him for.

Li Yan’s strong arm provided a steady support, allowing the little woman to sleep soundly.

He turned back, addressing the officer in a calm voice, "Shaky!"

"Huh???" The officer seemed puzzled.

The Devil King’s way of talking was too concise...

As a mere mortal, he couldn’t manage to communicate with the big shot...

"The car is shaky!" Li Yan further explained.

"?????"

However...

The officer still looked bewildered.

Nearby, in the position of a deputy, the conversation was not difficult to overhear.

Having just had his fill of dog food, he burped and explained, "Earl means the car is too shaky, the lady can’t sleep well, so he’s using your seatback as a support."

Tremble...

Mere mortals...

You can’t fathom the mind of the Devil King...

"..."

The officer understood the deputy’s meaning...

But he wished he could slap himself...

Why did he speak out of turn, asking pointless questions...

Just when he’d digested the dog food, another wave hit...

Nonetheless, he silently gave a thumbs up for the Devil King’s propensity to dote on his wife...

When the Devil King pampers his wife, he’s simply unbeatable!

Inside the car, one episode followed another.

Making it so everyone had heard clearly...

Ordinary people just watched the show, satiated.

The smart ones were somewhat stunned...

The scholar’s family sat in the front row, not too far away.

In the front row, Sun Caixing had been frowning all along.

She tugged at Lu Lijun’s sleeve and whispered, "Earlier, you didn’t let me help Qiu Xue, was there a reason for that..."

Sun Caixing was warm-hearted and had always been someone Qiu Xue tried hard to please.

Remember a few days ago, Gu Tong appeared, and Sun Caixing was the angriest, also the most eager to help Qiu Xue.

But fortunately...

She and Lu Lijun were a couple who weathered hardships together, their relationship was good.

Every day during meals, they would chat.

At that time, Lu Lijun heard about these things, his face changed, and he quickly told her not to get involved with Qiu Xue.

Moreover, he didn’t even tell her why...

Sun Caixing was puzzled, but for the sake of her husband’s future, she obediently complied.

However...

Now she discovered something wrong...

She didn’t miss the deputy’s form of address.

The deputy just addressed Gu Tong as ’madam’...

You should know, they aren’t married yet, even if the Devil King cherishes Gu Tong.

The deputy wouldn’t call her that...

So, Sun Caixing caught a whiff of the issue.

It must be said, she’s indeed a smart person.

If not, she wouldn’t have fared so well in the Academy Courtyard.
