Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability

Chapter 2444: Chapter 2444: I Haven’t Gotten in the Car Yet!

An Jiuyue watched Magistrate Shi enthusiastically arranging for people to handle the matter, seemingly eager and impatient, leaving her somewhat bewildered.

But considering how peculiar the An Que family was, she wasn’t surprised. Perhaps An Que had some other unsavory things that Magistrate Shi discovered, and now he was facing multiple charges.

She didn’t wish to linger any longer. After giving the necessary instructions, she prepared to return.

However, as she rushed back home, by the time she arrived at the treehouse, it should already be dark. And as luck would have it, before she returned to An Clan Village, she encountered An Que on the road, who was sitting on the ox cart heading home.

Seeing An Jiuyue approaching on horseback, An Que’s eyes lit up. He quickly jumped off the ox cart, raising his hand intending to greet An Jiuyue.

But how could An Jiuyue possibly pay him any notice? Without so much as a glance, she galloped past him, leaving An Que with nothing but the flying mud from her horse’s hooves.

“Damn it!”

Seeing An Jiuyue and the secret guards leave, An Que cursed under his breath.

What’s wrong with him? Why does An Jiuyue just refuse to acknowledge him? In terms of looks, who in the village is more handsome than him? In terms of knowledge, he is a scholar — how many scholars are there in the village?

Yet An Jiuyue simply dismisses him. It’s truly baffling.

He genuinely wished he could ruin An Jiuyue’s reputation, making it so she couldn’t marry anyone else and would have to end up marrying him.

But he knew this was unrealistic. With Prince Zhan as her brother and Prince An Yang as her sister-in-law, even if she doesn’t marry, wouldn’t she still live well?

Moreover, if he attempted such things and the two Princes of Different Surnames got wind of it, his entire family would surely be annihilated!

He can’t afford such consequences and figured it better to let it go.

“Once I pass the civil service exam and become the Zhuangyuan Imperial Exam Champion, then you won’t be able to reach my level!” He shouted at her already receding figure.

Then he turned to get back onto the ox cart.

Little did he know, the coachman hadn’t noticed him jumping off the cart. With his pause, the cart had already left him far behind, and he felt he could hardly catch up.

“Uncle, wait, I’m still here.”

He became frantic, shouting after the ox cart. Clearly going in the same direction, he had wandered off, and the ox cart had traveled far ahead, leaving him in disarray.

“Uncle Niu, wait a minute, I’m still here! Stop, I haven’t gotten back on yet!”

He chased after the ox cart all the way until he reached the village entrance, finally catching up. Naturally, since they were already at the village entrance, he no longer needed to get back on the cart and could simply walk home.

“Scholar Que, what’s wrong with you? Why are you panting so heavily while sitting on the ox cart?” Uncle Niu stopped the ox cart, spotting An Que standing aside, hands on his hips gasping for air, and asked curiously.

“I… I…”

An Que truly had no words to express his frustrations. He had been chasing the cart, shouting when he was far away, but later, unable to make a sound, he would just chase it silently.

By the time he caught up with the ox cart, they had already reached the village entrance.

“Scholar Que, your constitution’s not up to par! It’s not even cold, and yet you’re worn out from sitting on an ox cart? You should hurry home and rest.”

Uncle Niu cast a disdainful glance at An Que before driving the ox cart away.
