Chapter 13: Because It's You

Dugu Nagano has not been to Manchun Courtyard recently, and Jiao Niang often wears a pure white plush cloak, sits on the stone bench in the yard, teases the cat, and tastes tea.

The paper kite walked out with a hot soup woman and replaced the slightly cool soup woman in Jiao Niang's hand.

"Master, you better go back to the house, if you wait like this every day, your body will not be able to stand it."

"It doesn't matter."

The tip of Jiao Niang's nose was red, and her little face showed a hint of stubbornness.

"It's been more than half a month since that boy left, or maybe the boy was entangled in trivial matters."

The lady stroked the cat in her arms and whispered.

This sitting, it will be another day.

Day after day, endless waiting.

Because this is Jiao Niang's only chance, she must seize it.

On the second day, Dugu Nagano walked to the gate of Jiao Niang's courtyard with an oil-paper umbrella.

Just like you did at first sight.

The lady who was drinking hot tea looked at him standing at the gate of the courtyard, her eyebrows and eyes crooked.

Dugu Nagano smiled warmly and sat down across from her.

Jiao Niang poured him a cup of hot tea and placed it in front of him.

"Aye, it's freezing outside, but you have to be careful, don't get cold."

Dugu Nagano nodded obediently and looked at Jiao Niang gently.

Jiao Niang blushed a little when he stared at her, and buried her head slightly.

"This is the ice dew I got up this morning to collect and make tea for you."

Dugu Nagano nodded.

"Jiao Niang's craftsmanship is really different!"

The lady covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Blessed is this tea today, the ones of the past are slowly cooling down in endless waiting."

Jiao Niang said casually, but in the ears of Dugu Changye, it was a great crime.

"I'm sorry, something happened in the palace recently."

Dugu Changye looked at Jiao Niang distressedly.

Jiao Niang raised her eyes, smiled at the corners of her mouth, looked at him, and spoke softly.

"Why, Aye, from the very beginning, you had to tell me your true identity?"

Dugu Nagano looked at her seriously.

"I don't want to lie to you."

"Then aren't you afraid that I will take advantage of you? I'm a woman in the courtyard of Goolan. ”

Dugu Nagano smiled and shook his head.

"Anyway, I admit it."

"Ah Ye, can you teach me martial arts?"

"Why so suddenly?"

Dugu Nagano frowned.

"With me by your side in the future, you won't need to learn those things."

"And what if you're gone?"

Jiao Niang smiled and looked at Dugu Nagano.

Dugu Nagano was stunned, he looked at Jiao Niang's face, was it his delusion? Why does he think there is something in Jiao Niang's words?

In the end, Dugu Nagano still agreed to teach Jiao Niang martial arts.

"In the future, I will come to you when I have nothing to do."

Jiao Niang got up excitedly, walked to Dugu Nagano's side with a smile, and pinched his shoulders for him.

"Then thank you, master?"

"Master." Dugu Nagano silently recited this title and smiled lowly.

Dugu Nagano stayed in the courtyard until the evening, and then slowly returned to King Ning's mansion.

Jiao Niang stood at the gate of the courtyard, looking at the back of Dugu Nagano leaving, the hand hanging by her side clenched into a fist, and gritted her teeth.

"Meow~"

The cat walked up to her feet and arched her head over her herd of feet.

Jiao Niang retracted her thoughts, collected her emotions, bent down to pick up the cat, and walked towards the house.

The paper kite came over and was relieved to see the cat in Jiao Niang's arms.

"Scared me to death, I was giving the cat warm goat's milk, but in a blink of an eye it was gone, I said? It turned out that he had come to find his master. ”

The girl chuckled and touched the cat's head.

"Cat, do you like me so much?"

"Meow~"

The paper kite took the cat away, and the girl leaned against the window, looking at the snow outside the window.
