Qian Renxue raised a hand and beckoned.
The paper and pen that had been revealed from under the bed flew into her jade-like hand.
After a brief inspection, she instructed, "Copy a version for me when you get back."
As her voice faded.
The items in her hand flew towards Ling Yuan.
"This subordinate understands!"
Ling Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Gently putting down the bed, she reached out and collected the paper and brush that had floated over.
"Come and have some water."
Qian Renxue came to the table and sat down, picking up the kettle to pour water into a cup.
"Thank you, Miss Xue."
Ling Yuan respectfully thanked her, bending over to pick up the night pearl and wiping it with her sleeve.
She had been lying under the bed for so long, she was indeed a bit thirsty.
Qian Renxue sipped her tea, as if she could taste Qian Renjue's presence.
Suddenly, she frowned. The pleasure that had arisen in her heart from the act of peeking gradually subsided.
Looking at the seated Douluo Ling Yuan.
She asked softly, "Ling Yuan, do you think Jue is interested?"
"..."
Ling Yuan paused, the cup in her hand still.
After pondering for a long while, she gently shook her head. "Miss Xue, this subordinate doesn't know."
Qian Renxue seemed not to have heard.
Yet, it was as if she already knew the answer, murmuring softly.
"I understand Jue. Even if he hasn't, it's only a matter of time."
After all, Qian Renjue was still unaccustomed to such intimacy with a woman he didn't know well.
It was inevitable that it would leave an impression in his heart.
"This feels... a bit uncomfortable. If only time could slow down."
Qian Renxue propped her cheek up.
The thought of Qian Renjue being taken away by another woman made her feel a bit melancholic.
"How can my sister-in-law not have met her sister?"
"The road is long, so I, as her older sister, will take the liberty of managing things."
"..."
Douluo Ling Yuan listened quietly, not daring to speak.
I always feel like...
What Miss Xue is doing is more like what a noble's wife, the main wife, would do.
Qian Renjue, of course, didn't know.
His first 'encounter' would happen under the noses of others.
At this moment, he was walking shoulder to shoulder with Ye Lingling.
Silent.
Just occasionally glancing at each other.
They walked out of Tianbao Restaurant.
Qian Renjue supported Ye Lingling's arm, personally helping her into the carriage.
"Be careful."
"Thank you."
Ye Lingling's arm rested in Qian Renjue's hand as she bent down, standing on the carriage.
Looking down, she nodded at Qian Renjue.
Her blue eyes, clear and bright, still held a hint of shyness.
She pursed her lips and said softly:
"Thank you for the Qiluo Golden Pill."
"You're welcome. Consider it a small token of apology from me."
Qian Renjue shook his head.
Carefully releasing Ye Lingling's hand, he pondered for a moment.
A little awkwardly, he said, "Lingling, I... I will try my best to find time to visit you in the future."
"..."
Ye Lingling bit her lip, her heart fluttering.
Qian Renjue's words seemed to mean, I want to be with you.
Regarding this.
Ye Lingling wasn't resistant, and even secretly looked forward to it.
During their brief time together, she couldn't find anything to dislike about him.
The veil fluttered.
Ye Lingling's cherry-red lips parted slightly, her voice tinged with shyness.
"Mm, I'll wait for you."
"His Highness, the Saint Son, see you next time~"
Ye Lingling's long eyelashes fluttered, and the blankness in her eyes dissipated.
She turned and entered the carriage.
Qian Renjue opened his mouth, wanting to correct her address, but swallowed the words.
"Mm, goodbye."
The words carried spiritual power.
Gentle, yet they struck directly at the mind, possessing a strong penetrating force.
Inside the carriage.
Ye Lingling's hand had already reached under her veil, covering her burning cheeks.
The carriage began to gently bump along. Ye Lingling lowered her hands and quietly lifted the corner of the curtain, looking back.
Qian Renjue was watching her leave.
The carriage moved far away.
Qian Renjue turned and walked towards the carriage driven by Dugu Xin.
"Hmm?"
Qian Renjue suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He sensed subtle, almost imperceptible, surveillance around him.
Raising an eyebrow, he glanced towards the entrance of Tianbao Restaurant, his gaze hardening as it met the eyes of the welcoming attendant.
The attendant, upon seeing Qian Renjue's gaze, immediately hunched over, bowing and ushering the nearby guests towards the counter.
However, the attendant still kept Qian Renjue in his peripheral vision.
Whose eyes are these?
Qian Renjue murmured to himself.
He wasn't some nobody. It wasn't surprising that someone in Heaven Dou City recognized him.
Thinking of Dugu Bo now serving as an Elder of the Heaven Dou Empire, Qian Renjue made a decisive decision.
He didn't continue towards Dugu Xin, but instead turned and plunged into the bustling street, strolling amidst the crowd.
Thinking that the Tianbao Restaurant was a joint venture between the royal family and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Qian Renjue could guess where the young attendant was from.
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
"Your Highness."
Just as Dugu Xin was about to drive his carriage to give chase, Dugu Bo's low voice came from within the carriage.
"Xin'er, you go back on your own. I'll go protect His Highness."
...
Back at Dugu Manor.
It was just about lunchtime.
Hearing that Qian Renxue had gone out, Qian Renjue didn't think much of it.
He sat down and began to eat.
"Senior Brother, eat this, it's delicious."
"Your Highness, Yanyan will blow on it for you."
"Senior Brother, Nana will open a clam for you."
"Your Highness, that abalone she's picking isn't good. Eat Yan's."
"..."
At the dinner table, Qian Renjue rested his cheek in his hand, ignoring the overly attentive Dugu Yan and Hu Liena on either side of him.
He had a bit of a headache.
He suddenly wished they would just start fighting, instead of bothering him.
In this situation.
Qian Renjue had no doubt.
As long as he dared to open his mouth, it would be instantly stuffed.
Dugu Bo and the others sat opposite, holding their bowls and shoveling food into their mouths.
Not long after.
Looking at the various delicacies piled up in his bowl, Qian Renjue helplessly pushed it away.
"Alright, you two."
"I'm already full, you can handle these yourselves."
Qian Renjue burped.
Dugu Yan and Hu Liena were also very sensible, gently stroking Qian Renjue's back and obediently putting back the food they had offered.
"Senior Brother, when are we going shopping? We promised."
Hu Liena dabbed at Qian Renjue's lips with her sleeve.
She asked softly.
Qian Renjue raised his hand and rubbed Hu Liena's hair.
"Don't worry, senior brother won't go back on his word. We'll go later, when it's livelier."
"Mm-hmm, thank you, senior brother!"
Hu Liena narrowed her eyes, her face beaming with joy, and moved even closer.
Gurple~
Dugu Yan swallowed her after-meal puff, not envious, just a little curious.
"His Highness, how are things between you and Lingling?"
"Uh, it's alright."
Mentioning Ye Lingling,
Qian Renjue's expression became a bit strange, his eyes darting, and his voice dry.
"Alright?"
Dugu Yan was somewhat puzzled.
Hu Liena unconsciously clutched Qian Renjue's hem.
She was afraid her senior brother would distance himself from her.
"At the very least, I won't have to bother you to write for me anymore."
Qian Renjue chuckled, pinching Dugu Yan's cheek and wiping away the rice grains from the corner of her mouth.
He then put them back into Dugu Yan's red lips.
"Th-thank you, Your Highness."
Dugu Yan's beautiful face flushed red. She lowered her head slightly and licked her lips clean.
Hu Liena was about to say something.
A faint light flashed before her eyes, reminding her: "Senior brother, it's Sister Ling Yuan who's back."
Wishing everyone a happy life!
