Chapter 793: The Wolf Is Coming!

"So amazing," Hun Junlan said, a hint of surprise on her face. "Before I came to the capital, my dad told me this place is full of important people. Maybe the fruit seller you meet is a relative of a noble, or the grandma haggling over prices is the mother of some big shot. He told me to stay low-key and avoid trouble. I did just that. But I never expected to meet the top-tier nobility in just a few days." She stuck out her tongue, looking particularly mischievous.

Zheng Fei nodded. Hun Junlan looked at her again. "But why are you so afraid of her?"

"How can I not be?" Zheng Fei said with a helpless smile. "My grandpa said that in the eyes of the Capital's Venerable Yanluo, there is no distinction between men and women. Only strangers, friends, family, and enemies. You don't know, I heard that when she was eighteen, Bai Yaxuan from the Bai family—a second-tier noble house—tried to scheme to become her wife. The plan failed, and the Bai family was suppressed until they were nearly third-tier. Now, although they look like second-tier nobles, they are actually no different from third-tier." She made a scared face. "Anyway, the Capital's Venerable Yanluo is truly terrifying. Otherwise, she wouldn't have that title."

"So ruthless? Offend one person, and the whole family suffers," Hun Junlan gasped. "We better be careful."

Luo Kun glanced at Zhu Yanyi again and spoke slowly. "Actually, I think as long as we don't offend her, we should be safe, right, Yanyi?"

Zhu Yanyi glanced at Luo Kun, a slight smile on her lips. It seemed Luo Kun, who looked rough and burly, was actually the most perceptive. She nodded gently. "Yes, as long as we mind our own business and don't disturb her, there will be no problem."

"How do you know?" Ma Yaya asked curiously.

Zhu Yanyi spoke lightly. "Didn't you hear Fei? She is the head of the household. Such people are usually very busy. Busy people never pay attention to us little folks. As long as we manage ourselves well, attend military training, and keep our rooms tidy, these seven or eight days will pass peacefully. Once those days are over, she will leave. What problem could there be then?"

After Zhu Yanyi finished speaking, Zheng Fei nodded directly. "So I must work hard on my stamina, especially running." She started sighing. "Why didn't my mom give me legs good for running? Every time we run, I am definitely last."

"Calm down, calm down," Ma Yaya patted Zheng Fei's shoulder. "Everyone has gains and losses. Your running legs aren't good, but your chemistry grades are great. That is your strength."

"Come on, that comfort sounds weird to me. But don't worry, I will be extra careful. At least for these seven or eight days, I won't hold you back. If I can't run, Luo Kun, Yanyi, just drag me along," Zheng Fei entrusted them seriously.

"Okay," Luo Kun and Zhu Yanyi smiled slightly. This request was acceptable.
