Xu Xiaoyan was furious, whispering, "Yan Xiaofei, do you think you're some old monk reciting sutras? If I say I'm not going, then I'm not. You're going on official business, just finish it and hurry back. I won't be any help if I go with you, and you'd still have to look after me. Isn't that troublesome for you?"
"Not troublesome at all." Yan Fei replied with a playful grin. "Having you with me gives me the energy to get things done. If you don't go, I don't even feel like going. Didn't you say this opportunity is rare? Let's go, let's go..."
"Not going." Xu Xiaoyan glared at him. "I'm preparing for graduate studies! If I don't get in, I'll just go home and manage the accounts in the fields, and don't you dare let me stay here with you. If I'm not studying, can I afford to do nothing here?"
