The national prince charming took first place again

Chapter 225



The next day.

When Ling Jue woke up, it was still dark outside.

As expected, she could still wake up very early if she went to bed too early.

She took out her phone and looked at the time. It was 4:30 in the morning.

Tang Yuan was sleeping soundly. It had said that it would not be able to sleep if it went to bed too early, but it was the first one to fall asleep when it went to bed. 2

Ling Jue had planned to go out for a walk, but she heard rustling sounds coming from under her window.

She frowned and looked out of the window.

“That kid shouldn’t be awake yet. I’ll stay here and squat down on him.” 2

Ling Jue: “...” What was the kid doing squatting under her window? 2

The one under her window was Xiao Niu. He was still holding a thick coat and sitting on a rock. He looked dazed, but he fell asleep leaning against the wall in just a few minutes. 2

Then, he woke up in a few seconds. His head kept hitting the wall bit by bit. It was very comical.

“...” Ling Jue thought that the kid was probably dumb. 2

She walked out of the door. The morning sun was gradually rising outside. From here, she could only see a faint red spread from the back of the mountain. Soon, she reached the treetops.

The entire back of the mountain was dyed red. In a moment, the golden light illuminated the entire world.

Ling Jue stood in the courtyard until dawn.

Tang Yuan hopped out and rubbed against her body. “Lord Jue, good morning.” 2

Ling Jue nodded. “You’ve slept long enough, right?” 2

“I slept for a long time today. I’m so hungry.” Tang Yuan rubbed its belly and laid on her shoulder. “I want to eat crayfish, hairy crabs, squid, garlic scallops...” 2

“You’re a Gu. You should eat some plants and flowers.” Ling Jue pinched its face and looked at it with a grin. 2

“Xiao Jue, what are you doing?” The two of them were so engrossed in their game that they did not see their grandmother walk out of the room. 2

She saw Ling Jue squeezing a ball of air with her hand and smiling happily. 2

“...” Ling Jue retracted her hand. Tang Yuan jumped onto her shoulder and hid behind her hair. 2

It’s over, it’s over. Will grandma think that Lord Jue has gone crazy? 2

“It’s fine. I’m exercising my fingers.” Ling Jue smiled and retracted her hand. 2

Grandma heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Ling Jue was indeed fine. “I’m going out for a while. You can eat your lunch later.” 2

“Okay.” Ling Jue nodded. She picked up the sprinkler and began watering the flowers. 2

“Xiao Jue.” Grandma walked over and patted her shoulder helplessly. “You can’t water the flowers in the morning. They’ll freeze.” 2

“These flowers and plants are also alive. Insects, everything in the world is alive.” Her expression was distant and she smiled faintly. “Perhaps someone who stepped into the soil with half their body has seen too many things.” 2

She patted her shoulder after she said that. “Alright, you can play at home. If you’re bored, go find Xiao Niu next door. They’ll roast sweet potatoes at the cattle herding in the afternoon. He’ll be a good companion.” 2

“Alright.” Ling Jue nodded. 2

Ling Jue watched her leave before she went back to her room to grab her phone. It was just the right time to catch insects.

Niu Tingxiong, who had been squatting in the corner, ran out as soon as he stepped out of the courtyard.

“Master Jue! I’m coming!” He sat up from the ground and ran towards her quickly. 2

“Let’s go.” Ling Jue sized him up. The dark circles under his eyes could not be seen at all. 2

“You know I’m here?” He scratched his head, his big eyes filled with admiration. 2

“You’ve been squatting here since four in the morning. It’s rare to see such a stupid little brother.” 2

“Hehehe, aren’t I afraid that you’ll leave me behind?” He quickly followed him, smiling proudly. “Let me tell you, I know the way into the mountain. Otherwise, you won’t be able to get in.” 2
