A sudden pain on his lips pulled Ji Zhao out of that nightmare.

The moment she opened her eyes, she was in a daze.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Shen Yao quickly wrapped her in his arms, and pressed her cheeks full of tears intimately, gently comforting her.

A quarter of an hour later, Ji Zhao, who was holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, finally woke up completely.

"The nightmare just now was terrifying." After taking a sip of hot tea, Ji Zhao nestled into his arms again, his deep voice full of fear.

Shen Yao patted her on the back lightly, and comforted her softly, "Zhao Zhao, don't be afraid, nothing will happen."

"Shen Yao, when you go to the Gongyuan for the exam in the future, you must be more careful, and don't eat the food provided by the Gongyuan." Ji Zhao tightened his arms and urged anxiously.

"Zhao Zhao, what do you mean..." Shen Yao narrowed his eyes vigilantly and frowned thoughtfully.

Zhaozhao would never aim at nothing. The reason why she brought this up specifically must be from his point of view. That is to say, the Gongyuan is not safe for him?

"Aren't we underestimating the enemy?" Ji Zhao nodded slightly at him, his tone full of regret, "Now the magistrate of Yunchuan Prefecture is Sun He who hates you to the bone. Back then, he changed your grades to be able to go to high school. How can you just watch your title on the gold list?"

"We walked so smoothly, so we didn't realize that the danger lurking around us has never disappeared." At this moment, Ji Zhao still had lingering fears.

The Sun family had already arranged everything in the Gongyuan in advance. Once Shen Yao stepped into the Gongyuan, his body would be sent out before the rural examination was over——

And the reason why Ji Zhaofang cried so sadly in the dream was precisely because she got the news of 'Shen Yao's sudden death', so she knelt outside the main entrance of the Gongyuan in sackcloth and filial piety, heartbroken and wanting to seek justice!

"Zhao Zhao," Shen Yao held her hand, and comforted her in a low voice, "Fortunately, I have you."

"Don't be sad, hasn't the scene in the nightmare happened yet?" Shen Yao rubbed her head and smiled slightly, "I assure you, I will take good care of myself."

"Ok."

Under the comfort of Shen Yao's gentle words, Ji Zhao finally had a solid sleep in the second half of the night, let alone having any nightmares.

The next day, Shen Yao looked at Ji Zhao who was still sleeping soundly, kissed her brow and eyes tenderly, covered her with the quilt, and walked out the door lightly.

In the lobby on the first floor of the Yinchuan Inn, two shop assistants were cleaning the table energetically, and shopkeeper Qian was standing inside the counter and fiddling with the abacus.

The crackling sound is exciting.

"Shen Langjun so early?" Hearing the movement, Shopkeeper Qian quickly put down the mahogany abacus in his hand, and came forward with a smile, "I don't know how Shen Langjun rested last night? What orders do you have now?"

"Thanks to Shopkeeper Qian, I slept very well last night." Shen Yao smiled slightly, "It's not a matter of ordering, but I just want to bother Shopkeeper Qian. I wonder which restaurant around here has the best chicken soup wonton?"

"Mr. Shen, then you are asking the right person!" Shopkeeper Qian patted his chest and said, "It's not a villain, Shao Ji's wontons are famously delicious!"

"Shao Ji?"

"That's right, besides the gate of our inn, go half a mile to the left, and the first one at the entrance of the alley is the one. Shao Ji's wontons are extremely delicious. You shouldn't have to wait in line for too long!"

"Thank you, Shopkeeper Qian."

When Shen Yao went out, the sky was gloomy.

Probably because it rained after midnight last night, the weather in the early morning was very refreshing.

Yinchuan Inn is located in the bustling area of ​​Fucheng. There are row upon row of shops on both sides, and the roads on both sides of the wide street are full of sycamore trees.

After a quarter of an hour, Shen Yao finally came to the Shaoji wonton shop.

It's not yet Chen's hour, but there seem to be two queues outside Shao Ji's store.

After some inquiring, Shen Yao found out that this Shaoji Wonton is a century-old brand, and this shop is very interesting. For so many years, it has only sold two flavors of Wonton, Chicken Soup Wonton and Shrimp Wonton. What's more important is that Shao Ji opens its doors every day at 10 o'clock, and only sells 100 wontons, while stocks last.

Shen Yao was lucky, he was the last customer this morning.

Just as he was about to leave with the wontons in hand, he was stopped by someone.

"I'll pay three times the price to buy three wontons from you."

"Not for sale." Shen Yao replied blankly.

"Why are you like this?" The angry man put his hands on his hips, "I have already paid three times the amount of money, why are you so ignorant?"

"Brother, I beg you, okay? My lady really likes this wonton. If I can't buy it today, I will definitely be scolded when I go back!"

"not my business."

"How can you be so unreasonable! You are not a pig, don't you feel overwhelmed by eating three servings alone?"

Both hard and soft will not work, Xing'er is a little angry!

Shen Yao didn't bother to pay attention to such an unreasonable person, so he took two steps back, trying to go around behind her.

But that maid was unreasonable and tried to snatch the food box from him.

Shen Yao narrowed his eyes, and a strong murderous look flashed across his eyes.

"release!"

"Don't let go, unless you sell me the last three wontons!"

"Buy and sell by force? Which maid are you, so unreasonable?"

"I'm afraid I'll scare you to death if I say it! Hmph!" The servant girl sneered again and again, but she was caught off guard and felt her ankle tremble, and she fell to the ground with all four feet in the air——

Shen Yao lowered his eyes to cover the coldness in his eyes, turned around and left lightly.

"Xing'er, what's the matter with you?" Lu Hongshan who heard the movement hastily raised her skirt and came forward. Out of the corner of her eye, she happened to catch a glimpse of the tall and straight light blue figure, "That one just now was..."

"Miss," Xing'er hurriedly got up from the ground, shrinking her neck in fear, "The servant is useless, I couldn't buy chicken soup wontons."

"It doesn't matter." Lu Hongshan smiled indifferently, her eyes still fell on the back that was fading away.

When Shen Yao came back with chicken soup wontons, Ji Zhao had already woken up.

She was sitting at the desk, seriously planning the nutritious meals for the next few days.

"Shen Yao, come here and take a look." Ji Zhao handed him the planner in his hand like a treasure, "Look at the nutritious meal I made for you, can you see if there is anything that needs to be changed? "

"Nutrition meal?" Shen Yao brought chicken soup wontons in front of her and asked curiously.

"Tomorrow you are going to take the exam at the Gongyuan. I have already inquired about it in advance. The food in the Gongyuan is average. So I decided to bring you food every day!" Ji Zhao looked up at him and said with a smile , "The so-called nutritious meal is some delicious food that is rich in nutrition and good for the body!"
