My Fulang is a Delicate Flower Chapter 103 Part 2

During the evening feast, Yuan Fei and Ji Wenliang were like they were fighting a battle, relentlessly putting food in Jin Kelu's bowl and pouring water for him—even servants weren't that attentive.

Fortunately, at the table for eight people, besides those four, there was also Yuan Fei's father, who only knew how to bury his head in eating, and three other younger juniors.

Jin Kelu looked at the pile of food in his bowl and the two still subtly competing. He remained expressionless, silently eating all the food and meat in his bowl clean, not wasting a bit.

"Jin ger, the road at night isn't safe. A-Liang doesn't know how long he'll be busy. Let Yuan Fei take you back first."

The night meal lasted over an hour. After eating, it was already quite late. There was still a table of men drinking in the courtyard. Ji Wenliang was called by Ji Yangcheng to offer a toast to his brother-in-law.

Ji Wenliang, afraid his third aunt would cause more trouble, originally didn't want to go, but it would be impolite not to. So he first told Jin Kelu not to rush off, that he would come later to see him home.

Seeing this, Ji Wanglan quickly seized the chance to urge Yuan Fei to take Jin Kelu back.

However, while Yuan Fei was willing to do small tasks like putting food in Jin Kelu's bowl or peeling an orange, he was less enthusiastic about more troublesome matters.

Daytime was fine, but it was specifically night time.

He looked up at the pitch-black sky. Naturally timid and lazy, he was unwilling now, so he hemmed and hawed: "Why can't we see the moon tonight? Not even two stars. It isn't going to rain, is it?"

"Just take an umbrella. It's not that easy to rain."

Ji Wanglan glared at Yuan Fei.

"But... but... it's a dark and windy night. What if there are bandits?"

Jin Kelu said: "No need to trouble. Yuan Fei doesn't know how to ride a horse. Coming and going is inconvenient. I ride a horse and will be back quickly. No need for anyone to see me off."

Yuan Fei breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I'll take you next time."

Jin Kelu acknowledged, mounted his horse, and rode out of the courtyard.

Watching the person leave the courtyard, Ji Wanglan said with utter frustration: "You good-for-nothing."

"Now that Wenliang is back too, if he snatches Jin ger away, will that vast herd of horses still come to you? You have no foresight at all. If you aren't willing to endure a little difficulty and make an effort now, how do you expect to secure a comfortable life later on?"

"There aren't many families around Lin Village to begin with. Finally, we see a good one. Look, he's willing to interact with us. If this still doesn't work, I won't bother with you anymore. You can stay a bachelor for life!"

"Third Aunt, you sure know how to scheme."

A cold voice sounded from behind. Ji Wanglan couldn't help but shiver.

She turned around and saw Ji Wenliang standing behind her, not knowing when he arrived. She pursed her lips: "Marriage is a major life event. Who doesn't scheme back and forth? What do you know, kid?"

"I don't know much. But don't think you can plot against him with your bad intentions."

"Hey, whoever he wants to marry is his business. What say do you have, kid!"

Ji Wenliang paid no attention. He grabbed his horse, mounted it, and galloped off quickly in the direction Jin Kelu had gone.

"See? I told you to go, but you wouldn't. Now that kid seized the opportunity."

Ji Wanglan angrily patted Yuan Fei a few times.

The night was dim, the wind in the open wilderness and forests was stronger than usual, and the calls of wild beasts in the mountains could faintly be heard.

Jin Kelu was riding a horse—with a bow and arrows on his back, he wasn't afraid at all.

Having stayed in the Northern Territories for many years, he was from the nomadic tribe and exceptionally vigilant.

Even though the wind was loud, he still heard the sound of horse hooves hidden beneath the wind.

With a swishing sound, an arrow flew out.

"It's me!"

Ji Wenliang, seeing the arrow brush past him, frowned tightly. Originally, he had just been silently following behind, but now he couldn't help speaking up urgently.

"What are you following me for? Why aren't you attending to your brother-in-law's family?"

Jin Kelu turned his horse around and looked at the person behind him: "So much free time and elegance."

Ji Wenliang looked at Jin Kelu in the night wind, the wind blew the hair on his forehead, fluttering. They had been apart for over ten days, and he had missed him for over ten days.

He had finally returned, only to see him getting along with his third aunt's son. He pursed his lips, feeling somewhat wronged in his heart.

But he knew this was his own fault, so he said softly: "That, before, not letting you go out with me, was my mistake."

Jin Kelu slowly put down his bow and arrows. He gave a light laugh: "You think I wanted to go that much? It's a hard job and thankless. But it's just as well I didn't manage to go, if I had gone, I wouldn't have become so close with your third aunt's cousin."

"Your third aunt quite likes me, she even wants me to be her daughter-in-law. I said, it's not like everyone finds me dislikable or unappealing."

Hearing this matter, Ji Wenliang became anxious: "Third Aunt has that intention, but are you really willing?"

Jin Kelu immediately said: "Why wouldn't I be willing? Your third aunt is very good to me. Although your cousin can't do anything, he has the advantage of being handsome and refined—just my type."

"But Third Aunt is only like that because she has her eye on your family wealth! Cousin isn't someone with much initiative either, he listens to everything Third Aunt says."

Jin Kelu shrugged indifferently: "So what if she has her eye on it? I have these things anyway."

"Even if they have ulterior motives, their intention to marry me is still genuine."

After speaking, Jin Kelu pulled the reins and turned around: "You go back. Don't worry, I won't bother you anymore in the future. You're free, no longer need to be troubled by my matters."

"A-Lu!"

Seeing the person about to leave, Ji Wenliang quickly urged his horse forward to catch up.

Jin Kelu raised his eyes to look at the person in front of him: "What now? Didn't I make myself very clear?"

Ji Wenliang looked directly into Jin Kelu's clear eyes, and his face turned red.
