I am cannon fodder, but I can hug thighs

When Lin Jin returned to Fuyun Courtyard to live again, he realized that his sleep had been very poor during this period. Only after returning to Fuyun Courtyard did he have a good sleep, even a dreamless night, and he woke up full of energy.

"I haven't seen a girl sleeping so well in a long time." Xunmian was also happy to see Lin Jin like this.

Lin Jin stretched lazily, "Maybe it was too hot a while ago, and it rained last night and it was cool, so I had a good sleep."

"What the girl said is right." Xunmian and Xing'er saw through it but didn't say anything. It was not because it was cool, but because they felt at ease.

After washing up, Lin Jin went to see Song Shixia first, and was satisfied only after making sure that Song Shixia had asked for leave from the academy today. He had a casual breakfast and got on the carriage to the academy. When he arrived at the academy, before getting off the carriage, he saw Xi Lilong just getting off another carriage.

"Xi..." Lin Jin was about to say hello, but found that Xi Lilong pretended not to know her and walked into the academy without even looking at her.

"Me?" Lin Jin didn't understand what was going on. She was fine yesterday, but why did she feel like she had offended Xi Lilong in some way? She looked at Xunmian in confusion, "What did I do wrong?"

She didn't do anything, nor did she say bad things about others behind their backs like those classmates did before. What happened?

"I don't know." Xunmian couldn't figure out anything and shook her head helplessly.

Lin Jin had no choice but to wait and ask Xi Lilong later, since she was right next to him. But when Lin Jin arrived at the lecture hall, she found that Xi Lilong, who had arrived earlier than her, was not there: "We are supposed to have class in the lecture hall today, where is Sister Xi?"

"Xi Qi hasn't arrived yet." The girl in front of Xi Lilong said lightly, but it was obvious that she didn't like Lin Jin very much. The reason she spoke to him was just for Xi Lilong's sake.

Lin Jin blinked.

Didn't come? Impossible, she clearly saw him at the door, it couldn't be that they were dazzled.

Xi Lilong arrived late and took his seat just before the teacher went to the lecture hall for class. Lin Jin noticed the tiny spots of mud on Xi Lilong's dress. Even on a rainy day, it shouldn't be like this, especially for Xi Lilong who always talked about etiquette.

Lin Jin opened his mouth to say something, but the teacher entered the lecture hall. Lin Jin couldn't say anything. He wanted to pass a note, but the ink didn't dry quickly and the distance between them was not small. There was no way to pass a note secretly like he did when he was a student.

She had been secretly looking at Xi Lilong the whole morning, but Xi Lilong was staring at the teacher in the classroom. Lin Jin always felt that something was wrong, because normally he would never stare at the teacher like this.

She looked at the book on Xi Lilong's desk again. It had been such a long time and he hadn't turned the page yet.

This is not listening to the class, it's obvious that he is daydreaming.

When it was time to rest, Lin Jin propped up her face and looked at her sideways: "Sister, are you in a bad mood today?"

Xi Lilong just turned his head slightly, but before he saw Lin Jin's face, he turned his head back: "No."

"It must be." Lin Jin's eyes are not blind. "Sister, can you tell me what's wrong with you? If it's really inconvenient, then forget it. As long as you know that I don't really care what happened, I just care about you and want to make you happier."

Xi Lilong: “…”

"Hehe." Lin Jin was being smooth-talking on purpose.

"You..." Xi Lilong seemed to hesitate for a moment and asked a question, "Do you want to learn martial arts?"

Lin Jin didn't realize how the topic jumped to this point: "Me? Do you think it's suitable? Isn't it said that you should learn martial arts as early as possible? Isn't it not suitable after that age?"

Why do they all want her to learn something? Does she really look that useless?

Moreover, this doesn't sound like something Xi Lilong would say. Instead of asking herself whether she wanted to learn martial arts, Xi Lilong would more likely ask why a girl would want to be the kind of person who fights and kills.

Could it be that Xi Lilong was also penetrated?

"It's suitable. Do you want to?" Xi Lilong looked at Lin Jin steadily. "As long as you want, I will teach you."

"Ah?" Lin Jin was even more confused. It was not because Xi Lilong wanted to teach her, but because Xi Lilong knew martial arts. This was beyond her understanding. "Sister, you also know martial arts? I can't tell. Sister, you are really great. You are good at both literature and martial arts."

She thought it was remarkable that Xi Lilong was proficient in the six arts of a gentleman.

Xi Lilong did not look at Lin Jin. As for the compliment in the other party's words, she felt it was a bit ironic: "So what if I know it? It's useless anyway. I might as well teach you. Maybe one day you can use it."

"Sister, do you want to be a military officer?" Lin Jin asked with a smile and a curious look on her face. After seeing Xi Lilong's hands unconsciously clenched into fists, she knew she was right. "Did Sister go horseback riding just now?"

Thinking about it this way, such mud spots could only be splashed when riding a horse. After all, it rained for so long last night, the ground at the horse farm must not have dried yet.

"You are quite careful." Xi Lilong's words were considered an admission.

"No way." Lin Jin blushed at the compliment. Thinking of Xi Lilong riding a horse and galloping at the horse farm before dawn, she clapped her hands softly, "Wow, sister, you are so handsome. You are definitely the most handsome girl in our academy."

"Handsome?" Xi Lilong frowned slightly.

Lin Jin groaned, "I mean, sister, you are so heroic."

I forgot that the word handsome is not used in this way in this era.

"Slippery talk." Xi Lilong snorted coldly.

"Hehe." Lin Jin just smiled foolishly and did not refute, "Sister, can you tell me what's wrong? You can tell me secretly later, I promise not to tell anyone."

Xi Lilong looked into Lin Jin's eyes and said nothing. As for what happened, the story started last night.

Xi Lilong went to pay his respects to his parents every morning and evening as per custom. He thought he would just say a few words and go back as usual, but he did not expect his father to suddenly ask about Lin Jin.

"Why is Dad asking her?" Xi Lilong subconsciously felt that something was wrong. Apart from the incident of falling into the water in the academy last time, his father had nothing to do with Lin Jin, so why did he suddenly ask about her?

"This woman is unusual. Have you discovered anything when you interact with her?" The Dali Temple Minister stroked his goatee, as if he had something on his mind.

Xi Lilong frowned slightly and answered carefully: "She is indeed a smart woman. She learns things very quickly. If she were a man, she would probably be a genius."

"that's it?"

Xi Lilong listened to his father's doubtful words and felt a little uneasy: "Well... except that she is a little simpler than other girls, she seems to be no different."

"Naive? Then you really have misjudged him." The Dali Temple Minister suddenly laughed out loud.

Xi Lilong didn't understand why, so he could only suppress his uneasiness: "Why did father say that?"

The Dali Temple official frowned, "I don't know what she did to trick Prime Minister Song into asking His Majesty for a blank marriage decree for her. If she was innocent, how could she have entered the Women's Academy and made the Prime Minister do this?"

"Perhaps it's because the Prime Minister knows that Lin Liu is not a rotten wood and can be carved." Xi Lilong was not surprised. Everyone in the academy knew that Song Shixia cared about Lin Jin. Even for Song Shixia, the Prime Minister would definitely take care of Lin Jin.

She didn't understand why her father cared so much about this matter and came to ask her specifically.

"I'm afraid that Lin Liu will become the next Song Er. Long'er, you must have a good relationship with her. If she doesn't make any big mistakes, when His Majesty recruits female officials in the future, her achievements may be greater than yours. If you make friends with her, maybe she can help you." The Dali Temple Minister saw through Song Shiqiu's intention at a glance. He wanted to create another pair of valuable horse bones.

Xi Lilong was shocked: "What?"
