Chapter 133: Trust (one more)

Chapter 133 Trust (one more)

A thick stack of files filled Su Rong's entire arms.

She came to the soft sheet with her arms in her arms, put the file down casually, then tilted her body on the soft sheet, took a roll of files, and began to read.

Yan Huisheng turned his head and glanced at her, his eyes fell on her crooked posture on the floor, and then turned to a large stack of thick files, without saying anything, he continued to lower his head to deal with his own affairs.

Qin Luan carefully brewed tea, set out a fruit plate, put one on the jade table for Yan Hui, and another on the low table next to Su Rongruan.

While flipping through the file, Su Rong reached out and squeezed a piece of orange and threw it into his mouth, "Thank you!"

Qin Luan paused, the room was too quiet, and she couldn't disturb her, so she bent her knees and retreated silently.

The door was closed, Su Rong didn't raise his head, but Yan Huisheng turned his head to look at Su Rong instead.

Su Rong reads things quickly, and flips pages one by one carelessly, but keeps her eyes on the pages. In addition to the smell of tea, the study room is filled with the soft sound of her pages turning, which is very regular.

When she finished reading one file and reached out to touch the next one, Yan Huisheng suddenly said, "Have a photographic memory?"

Su Rong turned to look at him, "Did I disturb you?"

Yan echoed shaking his head, and said in a gentle voice: "The ancestors of the Yan family had the ability of photographic memory. After the ancestor died, no one had this ability for several generations. But after Prince Mingrui was born, he had the ability of memory of his ancestors again. Unexpectedly, you also have the ability of photographic memory."

Su Rong said, "Huh?"

Yan echoed and shook his head, "It should be!"

Su Rong scratched his head, "Then I am really honored to inherit the merits of my grandfather."

Yan echoed and laughed, "It is indeed very rare."

Su Rong sighed, "In fact, if you have this ability, it's not good, it's very annoying."

She sat up straight and told Yan Echo about her troubles, "For example, when I learned to read when I was a child, I could remember all the content in a book without forgetting it, but my mother thought I didn't like learning, so she forced me to sit in the school and listen to what my husband taught me. To become a peerless talent, I can only fight wits and courage with her while being dragged in class and listening to it with calluses in my ears."

Yan echoed amusedly, "So pitiful?"

"Yes, it's more than that." Su Rong said to him again: "Also, Uncle Xie is Xie Yuan. He is much smarter than my mother. He naturally found out that I was fooling on purpose, so he grabbed me and threw me into his library, and let me read. He said that if I read all the books in his library within a year, he would not set rules for me in the future, and let me do whatever I want."

Su Rong wailed, "You don't know, I was only seven years old at the time, and my mother had just passed away not long ago, and there were tens of thousands of books in his library, isn't this bullying?"

"Then did you listen to him?" Yan Hui asked.

Su Rong sighed, "I didn't want to listen to him, so I ran away and went to northern Hebei to play with the people from the Escort. My parents were looking for me like crazy, but he took it easy, didn't worry about me at all, and didn't send anyone to look for me. It wasn't until three months later that the Escort returned. When I was going to go shopping elsewhere, he suddenly appeared, arrested me, and told me that I wasted three months by myself, and there are still nine months left."

"Then what?"

Su Rong sighed deeply again, "Then I naturally resisted, bargained with him, and asked him to relax the time limit. He disagreed and told me that if I don't want to listen to him, it's okay, if I can stand my mother's **** staring at me every day. He said he promised me that if I listen to him, it will be his responsibility in the future, and my mother will not stare at me every day."

After she finished speaking, she asked Yan Echo, "Do you think it's more cost-effective to finish reading tens of thousands of books in nine months, and to be able to do whatever you want before you grow up? Or is it more cost-effective not to read those books and listen to him, and to be like my sisters who are full of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting lessons every day, and even practice a word before going to bed at night?"

"The former!" Yan Huisheng thought for a while and said.

Su Rong suddenly became excited, "Yes, I chose the former at the beginning."

After she finished speaking, she regretted the beginning and said: "I used it for nine months, eating and sleeping every day, wishing I could live in the library, and finally finished reading all the books. I thought I had a good life. Guess what? My mother didn't know. She saw that I had lived with Uncle Xie in Xie's house for nine months. When I climbed over the wall, she caught me and beat me up, saying that I was really lawless, and she must correct me for my playfulness and make me look like a young lady. She didn’t listen to what I said, so I went to Uncle Xie, and he shamelessly said that the eldest lady is fulfilling the responsibility of being a mother.

Su Rong sighed, "So, if you put this photographic memory on me, isn't it just cheating me? I'd rather not have it."

Yan Huisheng didn't know what to say for a while, looked at the stack of files in front of her, and said after a while: "It's better to have some, at least, you can save several times the time compared to ordinary people when you look at these things."

Seeing Su Rongmu looking at him with a straight face, Yan Hui covered his lips and coughed, "The time saved, can I play? Can I rest? The worst thing is, I can sleep."

Su Rong was successfully comforted, and muttered, "As expected of the Crown Prince, he is very good at comforting people."

Yan Echo: "..."

Su Rong waved his hand, weakly, "I didn't expect that now, I don't have to be forced by him, and I take the initiative to read the book. Your dark cubicle is really big, and there are thousands of books, right?"

Yan echoed and nodded, "Just take a general look, you don't need to look at everything."

Su Rong couldn't agree with this statement, "Your life is so difficult, if I want to help you, how can I not understand the whole world as thoroughly as you do?"

She sighed, "Hey, I'm such a qualified partner."

Yan Echo: "..."

The two stopped talking, and Su Rong continued to read the file in his hand, page by page, ten lines at a glance, and continued to turn the pages very regularly.

Yan Huisheng grew up, most of the time, such nights, he was reading or studying by himself, and now he was dealing with things. With such an extra person, he didn't feel disturbed at all. Instead, he felt that he was used to living a boring life. Being accompanied by such a lively person made him feel less lonely.

However, she is such an interesting person.

An hour later, Su Rong carried the stack of files back to the dark cubicle, then locked the lock again, put the key in front of Yan Huisheng, and said to him in a relaxed tone: "His Royal Highness, I finished reading today's tasks, and went back to rest."

Yan echoed for a moment, "Hold the key, when you finish reading it, when will you return it to me."

Su Rong looked at him, "It's not good for me to hold such an important key?"

"Gu trust you, take it."

"Then what if you're looking for something? Don't you want to get it from me instead?"

"Well, I have a lot of court affairs, and now I don't need to look up those things. If I need them, I will ask you to get them. If you have nothing to do during the day, you can come here to read by yourself."

Su Rong picked up the bunch of keys again, and began to unlock the keys between the two hidden grids.

Yan echoed to stop her, "The rest of the keys are the keys of the lonely private vault, darkroom, and library, and they are not used very often. You should hold them first, anyway, you can read quickly."

He still said the same sentence, "If there is a need, I will find you to get it, so as not to dismantle it separately and lose it, it will be troublesome."

Su Rong feels that Yan Huisheng is so unreserved, she really trusts her, but can she take it so casually? Of course not. These are the secrets and wealth of His Highness the Crown Prince. Even if he marries the Crown Princess in the future, he might not give it to her with confidence, right?

She quickly unlocked the two keys, and then solemnly handed the other keys back to Yan Huisheng, "Your Highness, although I have saved your life, you and I have a cousin relationship. Now we have reached an agreement to become a partner. You can trust me, but you can't trust me like this."

She said solemnly and seriously: "Uncle Xie said that anyone should have reservations about it, and you can't rely entirely on trust. Often, those who stab you in the back are trusted and close people. Therefore, a sense of proportion, a sense of distance, and a sense of fortified alienation from others are all necessary things to get along with people. Especially you are the prince. I have already felt your trust, but there is really no need to trust too much, it will make me panic."

Yan Echo was stunned.

Su Rong regained his smiling face, "You should rest early. You must know that rest is very important. Since ancient times, how many emperors have lived a long life? All of them suffered from physical damage. You can't learn from those people. Just think about it. If you live a hundred years old to make Daliang rich and powerful, or live forty years with you to let Daliang prosper for a short time, which is worthwhile? I'm going back."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left neatly, her steps were light and her figure was brisk, and the study door was still closed for him thoughtfully, with very little movement.
