She Holds the World After Being Reborn-Chapter 482 - 481: Where is the bathroom?

"...She has already admitted to it and hopes that Miss Qin can return her belongings."

Yingtao slowly relayed what Chu Yu had instructed her to say.

Qin Erya covered her lips and chuckled lightly, "The Princess’s belongings were already returned last time, Miss Qin still has that much honesty."

In the sickroom.

The weak Chu Yu listened to Yingtao’s words, "Did she really say that?"

"Absolutely certain, Miss Qin’s tone didn’t seem like she was lying," Yingtao recalled Qin Erya’s expression at the time.

Chu Yu pursed her lips, "But at the grand hall, this Princess clearly saw..." She clearly saw the eunuch pull out an identical purse.

Yingtao shook her head, "Miss Qin said she doesn’t know about this matter."

This made Chu Yu even more frantic.

If not Qin Erya, who could it be?

Could there be someone else helping Qin Erya?

Chu Yu licked her cracked lips and suddenly thought of someone who hadn’t shown their face from beginning to end.

This person also had ample reason to protect Qin Erya.

The Grand Tutor, Qin Jun.

Qin Erya was his granddaughter, and naturally, Qin Jun would make a move to help.

To avoid laying out the cause and effect of the matter in the grand hall, Qin Jun made his move.

Thinking of this, Chu Yu laughed foolishly.

Her laughs came with tears in the corners of her eyes.

Seeing this, Yingtao quickly came forward, "Princess, are you in pain again, should I call the Imperial Physician?!"

"This Dawei is indeed unfathomable, truly unfathomable!" Chu Yu let out these words before she fainted away.

The wager between Xiao Pingfeng and Chu Qi was set for the Autumn Hunt in half a month’s time.

The agreement was that whoever’s son hunted the most game would be the victor.

It wasn’t just about betting a hundred Sweat-Blooded Treasure Horses, but also the dignity of both nations.

If the situation had allowed it, Xiao Pingfeng and Chu Qi would have wished to join the hunt themselves.

Before the Autumn Hunt was Grand Tutor’s eightieth birthday celebration.

On this day, the entire Capital City was bustling with excitement as the citizens flocked to congratulate Qin Jun on his longevity.

Zhang Quanzhong stood at the doorway, his face almost stiff with smiling.

Qin Family’s eldest and second masters greeted the distinguished guests with their respective wives, everyone too busy to even touch the ground.

The only one missing was the young master of the Qin family.

Qin Erya found the young master, Qin Huai, leisurely occupying himself by a backyard pond.

"Little Uncle."

Qin Huai was fishing.

The bamboo rod lay beside his feet.

A book covered his head, and there he was, basking in the autumn sun, enjoying the autumn breeze as he fished and dozed off, the very picture of comfort.

The liveliness of the front courtyard seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Hearing Qin Erya call him, Qin Huai sighed.

"I can never hide from you. Have you placed a spy on me?" Qin Huai complained.

Qin Erya chuckled lightly, "The Qin Residence is only so big, and Little Uncle doesn’t have any other hobbies. It was easy to find you."

Qin Huai removed the book from his face, revealing a handsome young face.

He was born when the old Madam Qin was in her fifties, a birth that many considered unlikely; some had even uncharitably said that the old Madam Qin was an old clam with a pearl, shamelessly pregnant.

Yet, against all odds, thanks to the determination of the Grand Tutor and the old Madam Qin, the child was kept.

Although the birth went smoothly, the old Madam Qin’s health declined, and she passed away a few years later.

Qin Huai was extremely cherished in the Qin Family, with brothers and sisters-in-law who were all very affectionate towards him, thus developing his somewhat idealistic temperament.

Sometimes, he seemed even more childlike than Qin Erya.

"Out with it, what’s the matter?"

Qin Huai stood up from his chair.

"The front yard says the Crown Prince and Crown Princess Consort will be here soon, Grandpa asked me to call Uncle over to greet them." Qin Erya noticed the fishing rod at Qin Huai’s feet was unbaited.

Truly doing things his own way.

"I know." Qin Huai sat back down, "They’re not here yet, I’ll lie down a bit longer."

"Uncle, you didn’t put bait on your hook." Qin Erya reminded.

No wonder there’s not a single fish in the bucket by his feet.

Qin Huai pulled back the corner of his lips into a rascally smile, "There’s a story behind this."

"Jiang Taigong fished without bait, hoping those who wished would take the hook?" Qin Erya raised an eyebrow.

"As expected from the most well-read in our family, indeed you’re not easily stumped." Qin Huai praised.

Qin Erya sighed lightly and decided not to delay any further, "Uncle, hurry up."

Qin Huai waved his hand, pretending to nap with his eyes closed, "I know."

Seeing this, Qin Erya shook her head helplessly and walked towards the front yard.

On her way, she encountered a woman dressed in a dark purple gown looking like she had lost her way; she watched her in amazement as the woman buzzed like a headless fly, passing the rockery towards the backyard.

Qin Erya paused, recognizing that the woman was one of the Crown Princess Consort’s attendants, probably named Li Chengxiang.

A glint flashed in her eyes, and she turned around and walked away.

Meanwhile, the more Li Chengxiang walked, the more she felt that she had gone the wrong way.

As the weather cooled, she caught a chill, and having eaten something bad the previous night, she felt uncomfortable all night long.

To make things worse, her maid had gone to ask for directions, giving Li Chengxiang, feeling the urge, no choice but to look for a restroom by herself.

The Qin Residence wasn’t large, and everywhere was antique-styled, but oddly no place was suitable for the call of nature.

Li Chengxiang walked faster and faster, just hoping to find someone to ask directions from.

By chance, she saw someone by the pond.

She approached, "Excuse me, young master!"

Qin Huai, hearing the voice, grew impatient without even opening his eyes, "Go south from the front yard; this is the backyard, please, no visitors."

"No, that’s not it..." Li Chengxiang was so desperate her face turned beet red; she had an embarrassing problem.

If it were a woman, she would have directly stated it, but it was unfortunately a man.

Just then, her stomach painfully cramped, and Li Chengxiang turned pale. In her urgent state, she blurted out, "Where’s the restroom?!"

Qin Huai was so startled by the question he thought he had heard wrong.

A woman asking for directions, asking where the restroom is...

If this were said on the streets, no one would believe it.

Which family’s girl was this pure and unaffected?

Qin Huai opened his eyes to look over, but by this time, Li Chengxiang was already very impatient, the pain making her extremely uncomfortable.

The person in front of her was dawdling, and she would rather go out and ask someone else.

So she turned around, leaving Qin Huai with half a face.

It was this half face that made him freeze.

It was her...

"Stop!" Qin Huai called out.

Li Chengxiang, in pain, had her face scrunched up, walking in an odd posture.

She paid no mind to the person calling her from behind and continued walking forward.

Qin Huai, not willing to let it go, took a few steps and caught up in two, grabbing Li Chengxiang’s hand.

"You..." Li Chengxiang didn’t expect him to grab her; she cursed at once, "How could you be so reckless!"

"Still got the energy to scold," Qin Huai’s lips curved slightly, "Aren’t you looking for the restroom?"

It seemed she was really holding it.

Li Chengxiang’s face flushed with embarrassment, partly from shame and partly from urgency.

"Where is it?"

If she couldn’t find it soon, she would humiliate herself in public, a feeling worse than death.

Qin Huai, scarcely able to hide his amusement, pointed behind, "It’s nearby, hurry up then."
