Nighttime.
Tiandou City, Ye Residence.
Ye Lingling leaned on the bed.
Looking at the letter in her hand, her expression was a mix of laughter and tears.Although Qian Renjue's words seemed strange,
Ye Lingling was still willing to heed his advice.
She put down the letter and took out the Qiluo Golden Pill that Qian Renjue had given her.Snap!The silk box opened, golden light spilling out.
Ye Lingling's delicate face was bathed in the golden glow of the pill.
In truth,
even without Qian Renjue's instructions,
Ye Lingling had intended to swallow this golden pill.
This morning,
after witnessing the evolution of Dugu Yan's Martial Soul, she could no longer remain calm.
She had questioned Dugu Yan about how he had done it.
Upon learning it was due to a special pill,
Ye Lingling had without hesitation revealed Qian Renjue's letter to Dugu Yan.
Through this,
she had already learned quite a bit from Dugu Yan.
If…
she had long suspected that Dugu Yan was sent by Qian Renjue,
then the effect of the pill that Qian Renjue had sent left Ye Lingling shocked and excited!She almost wanted to rush home immediately,
to find a quiet place and consume the pill right then and there.
"If I could, being a servant or maid wouldn't matter."
Ye Lingling whispered to herself.Her blue eyes reflected the golden pill in the box.
There was sorrow in her gaze,she had never truly experienced sympathy.
The Nine-Heart Begonia of the Ye family had gone through too many situations like Ye Renxin's,and to escape such cruel fate,
Ye Lingling was willing to give everything she had!Her whisper fell.
Her delicate fingers picked up the golden pill,
placed it on her lips, and swallowed. Her lips parted slightly, her throat moving.
The power of the Qiluo Golden Pill rushed like a torrent,swiftly entering her body.
Ye Lingling's veil fell to the floor, her blue hair flowing even without wind.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed,the nine-year-old had only a single yellow soul ring beneath her.
With a faint fragrance,
a white light shot out from behind Ye Lingling.
The white light looked very peculiar,petal-shaped, drifting down slowly, landing gently in Ye Lingling's embrace.
That was Ye Lingling's Martial Soul—the Nine-Heart Begonia.
Composed of white and pink petals, it was colorful and graceful.
Leaves and vines slipped down from the sides,soft tendrils swaying in the wind, petals drooping delicately.
As the effect of the Qiluo Golden Pill was gradually absorbed by Ye Lingling,
a brilliant golden glow appeared on her body.
Even the Nine-Heart Begonia Martial Soul shimmered with golden light.
It floated quietly in front of her.
The only century-old soul ring was enhanced by the dense golden glow.
This golden light was released from Ye Lingling's body,carrying a strong aroma of tulips.
Amid the swirling pink-and-white light, she looked like a fairy descending to the mortal realm.
With each intensification of the golden glow,
it seemed to alter the Nine-Heart Begonia,making the flower in Ye Lingling's hand appear even more vibrant.
The white petals turned pink.Time passed quickly, and dawn approached.
Ye Lingling held the Nine-Heart Begonia in her palms, her blue eyes vast as an ocean,slowly sliding toward her cheeks.
She ignored the rapidly increasing soul power,her lips trembling slightly.
Her blue eyes fixed firmly on the petals, now fully transformed into the pink Martial Soul.Tears fell onto the petals like morning dew.
"Qian Renjue."
"From now on… I'm yours."
Her voice carried joy, excitement, and a hint of determination,like celestial music, tinged with sobs.…
The letter that Qian Renjue sent to the Ye family,
unbeknownst to him, had been repeatedly read by Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, and Ye Lingling.
But soon,Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue could no longer smile.
For not long after,
Ye Lingling swallowed the Qiluo Golden Pill, her Martial Soul evolving,
and directly expressed her willingness to fulfill the engagement.
The two women's faces immediately darkened.
Even the letter had been held separately by the two of them for several days before finally being delivered to Qian Renjue.
The development had happened so fast, Qian Renjue was caught off guard.
He didn't even know how to respond to Ye Lingling.
Their conversation had been awkward; they weren't familiar enough.Qian Renjue didn't know what Ye Lingling was thinking.
To him,the engagement and the Qiluo Golden Pill were not enough to be binding; the relationship seemed strange.
Ye Lingling's actionwas like a purely impulsive decision, made only to repay a debt of gratitude.
He certainly could not simply accept her,treating Ye Lingling as a tool for legacy or reproduction.
While Qian Renjue hesitated on how to reply,
Bibi Dong gave him a good suggestion:
Do nothing.
Give Ye Lingling enough time to calm down, to regain her rationality.
"Mom, how did you know what was inside?"
Qian Renjue heard Bibi Dong's slightly indignant suggestion.
He glanced at her strangely."..."
Bibi Dong, who was gently massaging Qian Renjue's back, froze.
But she was the Empress.
She didn't bother pretending anymore.
"I'm just afraid you might be deceived by a bad woman."
Bibi Dong lightly embraced Qian Renjue from behind, rubbing her cheek against his.
It was midnight.
Bibi Dong had been lying in Qian Renjue's arms for a long time before finally giving him the letter.
"Just a few years old and already a bad woman?"
Qian Renjue twitched his mouth.
She was clearly still a child; they had just gotten to know each other.
"Do bad women come in age categories?"
Bibi Dong pouted, arguing absurdly.
Qian Renjue didn't get angry; he relaxed.
She continued:
"Anyway, just listen to me. You're still young."
"There will be time later."
"If you let her cool down for two years, she may forget what the letter said—and that wouldn't be a good match."
"If she doesn't forget, she won't be so impulsive, and there would still be room for maneuver."
"As you said, does she now understand what lifelong companionship means?"
Qian Renjue leaned against Bibi Dong, surrounded by her fragrance and warmth.
At this moment,he was somewhat moved.
Glancing back, he timidly asked, "Mom, should I reply and explain the situation to her?"
"No need."
Bibi Dong shook her head gently.
"If your reply draws another letter from her, what will you do?"
"..."
Qian Renjue fell silent.
He also hoped Ye Lingling could calm down.
At the same time, he himself needed time to get to know her.
Learning only from paper is shallow.
No matter what it's used for, it's the same.
"Then let it be. I'll let Yan Yan continue to take care of her."
Qian Renjue nodded slightly.
"That's right. At this age, there's no need to think too much. Wait until you're older."
Bibi Dong smiled, nodding.
She didn't want other women interfering in their mother-son relationship while Qian Renjue was still a child.
"But does this make him a scumbag?"
"Hahaha!"
"What scumbag? Jue, you're just thinking about your future."
"You're not that kind of man, trust me."
"Mom trusts you too."
"Actually, your sister thinks the same way."
"What?!"
"You and your sister both peeked at my letter?!"
Wishing everyone a happy life!
