"ah!"

Ling Zhou's sudden pull startled Qiao Yu.

When she came to her senses, she found that she was already sitting on Ling Zhou's thighs and was held in Ling Zhou's arms. Seeing this, her face flushed. Fortunately, it was dark and no one could see her face clearly.

"How is it, have you regained the feeling you had before?"

Ling Zhou sneered.

"you……"

Qiao Yu's face was cold.

"What? Have you forgotten everything that happened back then?"

Ling Zhou smiled lazily.

As he spoke, he moved his hands upwards and placed his palms on Qiao Yu's breasts, one in each hand, just enough to hold two breasts of the right size in his palms. With a force of both hands, he pressed her tightly against his arms.

Qiao Yu looked down at her hands on her chest, frowned, and said in an increasingly cold tone: "I did it to save you."

"But it was also to save you."

Ling Zhou said with a smile.

Qiao Yu was speechless. The incident back then was too complicated. It was not just as simple as involving Ling Hai.

"Okay Lingzhou."

Qiao Yu frowned. These words revealed her princess aura.

Ling Zhou smiled, removed his hands from her chest, moved her body, asked her to turn around, held her head with both hands, and said in a serious tone, "Let's not talk about the past for now. I have a good idea about what happened between us. Do you want to listen to it?"

Looking at Ling Zhou's slightly serious face and listening to his serious words, somehow, a trace of panic flashed through Qiao Yu's heart.

Immediately, she struggled to stand up, tidied her slightly messy clothes, raised her head, looked at Ling Zhou, and said, "Okay, it's getting late, I'm going to rest first."

After saying that, she walked out quickly.

Ling Zhou did not stop the other party, but he felt a little strange.

Qiao Yu’s reaction was not what he had imagined!

No, it’s not slightly different, it’s completely different!

In his imagination, when he reached out and pulled her into his arms, according to her princess-like temper, she should have been angry!

In the end, I put my hands on her chest, but there was still no reaction.

It was not until I held her face in my hands, face to face with her, and I was about to take the next step that she struggled to stand up, showing her princess temper.

It was very obvious that Qiao Yu had been holding back his temper.

Even though she was being flirted with, she endured it.

It was not until the last moment that she stood up forcefully, turned around and left with a cold expression.

"Something's wrong, something's wrong..."

Ling Zhou muttered to himself, "If I had known this earlier, I would have played it more harshly."

He didn't know that Qiao Yu left at the last moment not because she was concerned about his next move, but because...

Then, Ling Zhou stretched and didn't think about it anymore.

Facing the moonlight, I leaned back in my chair bored and turned on the system.

After taking a glance, he was speechless.

Is it so difficult to calculate the reward for this mission? It hasn't been calculated yet?

After closing the system, Ling Zhou leaned back in his chair and admired the Red Leaf Mountain under the moonlight. After sitting for a while, he stood up and put Dahei back into the forest. He also had someone mark out an area in the Red Leaf Mountain for Dahei to move around.

Hongye Mountain is a royal property, and he can play with it however he wants.

After arranging everything, he turned and left the pavilion, heading towards his residence.

…

Manor, in a separate courtyard.

Prince Barnett sat on the sofa with a gloomy face, and waved his hand to throw the brand new mobile phone in his hand away.

With a bang, the phone deformed.

This was not enough to satisfy his hatred. He looked around the room...

After thinking it over, he resisted the urge to smash things around the room.

Smashing things around is a way to vent your anger.

But tomorrow, it won’t be pretty.

After all, this is not his home, so he can do whatever he wants.

He was feeling good now because he was smashing things to vent his anger, but how would he explain it tomorrow?

You can't say that you were so angry about being teased by Ling Zhou during the day that you smashed the room to vent your resentment?

As a noble prince, he still has to maintain his dignity.

So he endured it.

As for smashing things up and then throwing the blame on the housekeeper, that is even worse. No one is stupid enough to think that his housekeeper would dare to smash up the room in front of him.

"Send someone to investigate the area around Lanling and even the entire Asia-Pacific region. Search for traces of the giant eagle. Once you find any clues, report to me immediately."

Barnett ordered coldly.

"Yes, Your Highness."

In front of him, a well-dressed butler in his 50s nodded respectfully and gave the order.

After arranging everything, the old butler bent down and asked respectfully, "Your Highness, are you sure that the black bird that Prince Lingzhou caught is the Argentine giant eagle that became extinct millions of years ago?"

"snort!"

Prince Barnett snorted and said, "For that project, I collected birds and beasts from all over the world and lived with various birds and beasts for a long time. Collecting fossils of various ancient creatures, especially fossils of ancient birds, is my main focus. Naturally, I can confirm that the abominable big black bird is the Argentinian giant eagle. The only thing I can't be sure of is whether its bloodline is pure."

The butler nodded and exclaimed, "It's incredible! Ancient creatures have appeared in modern society."

"So, there is at least a second Argentine giant eagle in the world. Since this cub appeared in Lanling, the most likely place for the other adult Argentine giant eagle to appear is the Asia-Pacific region. Hmm! I remember that Ling Zhou went to China some time ago. Maybe it was at that time that he got this Argentine giant eagle cub. Send someone to China to investigate. Maybe there will be clues there."

Prince Barnet ordered.

"yes."

The butler nodded.

Immediately, he thought about it, hesitated, and asked: "Your Highness, what if we don't find the second giant eagle?"

After these words were spoken, Prince Barnett became stern.

He then said angrily: "If we really can't find it, we will have to take the risk and start with Lingzhou."

The housekeeper was shocked and said softly, "Your Highness, unless it is absolutely necessary, do not fall out with the Lanling royal family. The Lanling royal family is not simple. It is even more complicated than we know."

"Don't worry."

Prince Barnett nodded in agreement, then smiled, "No matter what, I have to thank His Highness Zhou this time. Originally, I was almost desperate about this project. Unexpectedly, this trip to Lanling, His Highness Zhou brought me hope."

Upon hearing this, the old butler nodded in agreement.

He knew that the project developed by His Highness had reached the final stage, and all it lacked was a gene from an 'ancient giant creature'.
