She comforted her, "Don't worry, Qing'er, I will be extra careful."

After saying that, she pointed to the lamb on the table and smiled at Yueqing, saying:

"Come and try this lamb, it's incredibly delicious!"

On the other side, Wuxiang Shi was listening to Baifa Xian's report in his study.

When he learned of Yueyao's solution, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.

He nodded in satisfaction and said:

"Hmm, Princess's idea is good. Let's do as Princess says!"

"I will also have Wuzuo cooperate with the princess's actions at that time."

Upon hearing this, Bai Faxin crossed his hands in a gesture of respect and said, "Yes, Your Excellency."

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed.

On this day, the sun shone brightly, the sky was as blue as a jewel, and a gentle breeze caressed the earth, bringing a refreshing scent.

Baili Dongjun and Yu Tian stood atop a high mountain, gazing into the distance.

Before them appeared a magnificent city, with towering walls and majestic gates.

Baili Dongjun's eyes widened in astonishment. "Is this Tianqi City? It's so huge!"

"It feels like it's several times bigger than our Qiandong City!" His eyes were filled with awe.

Xiao Ruofeng, standing behind him, smiled and nodded.

"That's right, this is Tianqi City, the capital of the Northern Kingdom. It is one of the most prosperous and important cities in the entire world."

Baili Dongjun took a deep breath, feeling the unique charm of this city.

He knew that this place was a gathering place for countless strong and wise people, a place full of opportunities and challenges.

The Jixia Academy, which he is about to enter, is renowned as the number one academy in the world, boasting top-notch martial arts traditions and outstanding teaching staff.

The thought that he would soon be able to become the number one disciple in the world filled Baili Dongjun with barely suppressed excitement.

He clenched his fists tightly, his eyes fixed firmly on the distance, as if he could see himself becoming famous and marrying a fairy in the future.

Seeing Baili Dongjun grinning foolishly on a rainy day, I wondered what the kid was thinking, but thinking of Li Changsheng's laissez-faire teaching style, I couldn't help but chuckle to myself.

He then patted Baili Dongjun on the back of the head and said, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go. Do you still want to become an apprentice? Do you still want to become famous?"

Baili Dongjun wasn't angry when he was photographed, after all, he couldn't beat Yu Tian, ​​and whether he could become famous and marry the fairy sister depended on Yu Tian.

Having already gotten used to being beaten along the way, he immediately began to fawn over her:

"Of course I'll go! I hope Brother Yu won't take offense!"

Just then, Xiao Ruofeng and Lei Mengsha also walked up to them.

Seeing Baili Dongjun's fawning manner, they couldn't help but exchange a smile.

They were already used to such scenes.

Chapter 43: I, Lei Mengsha, am not a live-in son-in-law.

After watching for a while, the four of them mounted their horses again and set off towards Tianqi City once more.

On the horseback ride, Lei Mengsha, who was always a chatterbox, couldn't help but say something.

"Baili Dongjun! Don't forget that you are the only grandson of the Marquis of Zhenxi!"

You should have composure and pride! Look at the state you were in just now!

After Lei Mengsha finished speaking, Xiao Ruofeng chimed in, "Yes! Lei Er has a point."

After spending some time with them, Baili Dongjun has come to understand Xiao Ruofeng and Lei Mengsha's personalities and character, and now considers them friends.

Hearing Lei Mengsha's words, he rolled his eyes, his lips twitched, and he couldn't help but think to himself:

"Wow! You two still have the nerve to say that! Lei Mengsha is already the second disciple of the number one disciple in the world, and one of the Eight Young Masters of Beili."

And you, Xiao Ruofeng, are the Ninth Prince of Beili! You're also the Seventh Disciple of the Number One Scholar in the World, and one of the Eight Young Masters. Of course you don't need to care about these things. It's easy for you to talk when you're not in my shoes!

And me? Right now, I have all that inner strength, but I can't even use it without getting drunk. Whether I can become famous and get married depends entirely on Brother Yu! What's a little bit of magnanimity and pride worth?

Lei Mengsha looked at Baili Dongjun, who was rolling his eyes at him, and couldn't help but laugh out loud, deliberately drawing out his words:

"What pride!"

Seeing Lei Mengsha's reaction, Xiao Ruofeng, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but smile slightly.

However, Baili Dongjun was not buying it. He rolled his eyes and replied with a mocking tone:

"Arrogance? How much does it cost per pound? Can it get you a wife? Brother Lei, have you ever actually been married?"

"Could it be that he couldn't get married even by selling his pride?"

When Lei Mengsha heard Baili Dongjun mention getting married, his expression changed, and he was instantly speechless. He then immediately changed his words:

"How could I possibly do that? But I think you're right, Brother Baili. I was just being superficial."

Actually, the reason he suddenly changed his mind was because he suddenly remembered something.

When he married his wife, it seems he succeeded by selling his pride, his thick skin, and his shamelessness.

Even their daughter takes their wife's surname. If Baili Dongjun finds out about this, who knows how he'll be mocked in return.

The rider in front, hearing the two arguing, chuckled, then, as if remembering something, said in a low voice:

"Lei Mengsha, your daughter doesn't take your surname, but your wife's. Is it because you're a son-in-law who married into the family?"

These words exploded in Lei Mengsha's heart like a bomb, her eyes widening in shock.

Her previously pale cheeks flushed red, and she quickly retorted:

"How could that be? I am one of the Eight Young Masters of Beili, my pride will never be broken, how could I possibly be a live-in son-in-law!"

Upon hearing Yu Tian's words, Baili Dongjun's eyes lit up, and he turned to Lei Mengsha, asking curiously:

"So, does your daughter take your surname or your wife's surname?"

Upon hearing Baili Dongjun's words, Lei Mengsha was speechless again, unsure how to respond.

After all, his daughter, Li Hanyi, does not share his surname.

Baili Dongjun looked at the speechless Lei Mengsha and clicked his tongue:

"So it turns out you really can get a wife by selling your pride! But Brother Lei, how much of your pride did you sell to get a live-in son-in-law?"

Upon hearing the words "son-in-law," Lei Mengsha's face instantly turned bright red, and he felt extremely aggrieved.

It wasn't that he didn't want to explain, but there were other reasons regarding his daughter's surname that made it difficult for him to easily discuss with others.

Seeing Lei Mengsha's aggrieved expression, Xiao Ruofeng couldn't help but laugh and kindly explained on his behalf:

"Brother Baili, you've misunderstood."

Lei Er was originally a disciple of Lei Family Fort, but he was expelled from the family for making a mistake.

Therefore, his children could no longer bear the surname Lei and could only take their mother's surname.

After hearing this, Baili Dongjun finally understood the whole story, felt relieved, and his tone became calm:

"Oh, so Brother Lei was kicked out of his home and had no choice but to become a live-in son-in-law. But I can understand."

However, Baili Dongjun's words caused Lei Meng to break through his defenses, and he roared in shame and anger:

"I'll say it again, I, Lei Mengsha, am not a live-in son-in-law!"

Seeing Lei Mengsha's excited expression, Baili Dongjun couldn't help but click his tongue, nodded casually, and replied:

"Yes, yes, yes, you're not."

Seeing Baili Dongjun's appearance, Lei Mengsha felt even more aggrieved.

He pointed at Baili Dongjun, as if to say something, but in the end he only managed to squeeze out one word: "You..."

At this moment, Xiao Ruofeng patted Lei Mengsha on the shoulder and comforted her:

"It's okay, Lei Er, I understand how you feel."

After all, men always need to save face in public, I understand.

Upon hearing this, Lei Mengsha's mood calmed down slightly.

But upon closer reflection, he realized something was amiss.

After a while, he finally realized the problem and couldn't help but curse:

"Damn it, Xiao Laoqi, what do you mean by this?"

What do you mean by "a man needs to save face in public"? Explain it to me clearly.

Chapter 44: Li Changsheng, the Number One Cool King in the World

Just as he was about to argue with Xiao Ruofeng, he discovered that the other party had already ridden away on horseback.

Enraged, Lei Meng stomped his foot and immediately spurred his horse into a gallop, shouting as he chased after him:
