"Yuwen Yao?"

"Of course it's him."

Xie Lingqin pursed her lips and raised her eyes slightly, "You and Yu Qingyi really shouldn't have separated."

"Don't bring me up again."

"What I want to say is that you're all equally gossipy."

"you……"

Nan Fenghuang was very frustrated. "Fine, I'm not going to talk to you anymore. I'm going back to my room to rest."

Xie Lingqin watched Nan Fenghuang's retreating figure, her smile fading, before she had a servant bring water to wash up.

In the stillness of the night, amidst the fragrance of tea and flowers, a gentle breeze carries the sweet scent of blossoms.

After taking a bath, Xie Lingqin lay on the couch, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. Suddenly, she heard a melodious and gentle flute playing outside the door.

The mellow, low-pitched, and melodious sound immediately brings a sense of peace and tranquility.

Xie Lingqin opened the door and looked into the distance. She saw a man sitting on the roof of a house not far away, kneeling with his hands on the roof ridge, holding a green flute to his lips. His expression was serene, like a painting that no one could shake.

Xie Lingqin's heart stirred for no reason, and she suddenly lightly touched the ground with her toes and flew straight away.

The abundant Cloud Clan techniques within her body allowed her to move with the lightness of a normal person, ascending gracefully and landing silently, instantly appearing beside the man.

Yu Riyu paused in his flute playing, immediately stood up, and bowed to Xie Lingqin, saying, "Greetings, Princess."

Xie Lingqin looked at him and smiled gracefully, "You can also play the flute?"

"Yeah, I sometimes feel like blowing it."

"It sounds nice."

Xie Lingqin said, as she spoke, she sat down and looked at the crescent moon in the distance, "I just heard the servants say that it will rain tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Yu Riyu looked at Xie Lingqin and asked, "Does the princess like rain?"

"It's not a matter of whether I like it or not, and it will still download regardless of whether I like it or not, just like... things that are beyond my control, things that I don't understand."

Xie Lingqin's voice grew even softer.

Before long, the sound of a flute began to play.

Its gentle, soothing sound brought a profound sense of peace to the heart.

Across from them, under the eaves not far away, Xu Yiran stood there, her gaze fixed on Yu Riyu's direction, unable to look away for a long time.

It's similar, yet not quite.

No, it isn't.

How could a man who occupies a godlike position...

The sound of the flute is unlike any other; it is so peaceful and warm.

It doesn't seem like it.

It doesn't seem like it.

The sound of the flute continued for a long time before Yu Riyu finally stopped. Beside him, Xie Lingqin leaned back, her head resting on her arm, and fell asleep.

As the wind passed, her face was serene, her thick eyelashes concealing the moonlight, her delicate features tinged with melancholy.

Yu Riyu glanced sideways, about to raise his hand to push her shoulder, but was stopped by the other hand.

"Don't disturb them..."

Xu Yiran's voice was clear and gentle, yet it carried a command. Before he finished speaking, Xie Lingqin, who was beside him, had already woken up. Looking at him, her eyes were still sleepy. "Xu Yiran, what are you doing here?"

"Now that the princess is awake and Young Master Xu is here, I will return to my room."

As Yu Riyu spoke, he raised his hand in a gesture of respect, and with a light leap, he descended from the rooftop.

Despite speaking of being a commoner, he was extremely polite and well-mannered.

Xu Yiran watched Yu Riyu's retreating figure as he slid down from the roof and disappeared into the distance, and suddenly felt a sense of defeat. But, in fact, he hadn't done anything.

The next day, it started raining just as dawn broke.

The rain was falling heavily.

It reflects the colors of the peach blossoms in the garden.

Yang Chengshou sent someone to tell us to wait until the rain stops before taking Xie Lingqin to see the peach blossoms, as they will be even more beautiful after the first rain.

However, Suanpizi really did look just like a monkey as he arrived at Xie Lingqin's door.

"Miss Lingqin, I have some good news for you. I don't know if you're interested."

"If you don't tell me, how will you know if I'm interested or not?"

"A restaurant actually opened in this town today. Can you guess what it's called?"

Xie Lingqin wasn't really interested, but she played along with the sour grapes and asked, "What?"

"The most refined taste in the world".

Xie Lingqin's eyelashes fluttered slightly.

"Doesn't it look familiar? More importantly, you know what? I went in and secretly checked it out, and it's exactly the same as Tianxia Yi in Beirong City. It's served in a big bowl, spicy and tender, exactly the same."

"Let's go take a look."

Xie Lingqin said.

Suanpizi immediately followed, not forgetting to find an umbrella to catch up.

When Xu Yiran received the news, Xie Lingqin had already left the city garrison with Suanpizi and headed straight for the bustling border town.

The light, misty drizzle did not deter many people from their steps.

The refined taste of the world.

The large, gold-plated signboard hanging there is eye-catching, and the unique opening ceremony at the store entrance attracts even more people.

This is a perfect replica of the opening of Tianxia Yiwei, but with even more innovation.

Xie Lingqin suddenly smiled.

"Miss Lingqin, you actually smiled. Could it be that this really was ordered by Manager Bai?"

"It's him, no doubt about it."

Xie Lingqin said.

Back in Beirong, when she was still safely enjoying Yuwen Yao's sweet care, she had a moment to talk to Bai Yu about opening a branch of Tianxia Yiwei. At that time, she said that Nanqi was prosperous, the ruler was enlightened, and the climate was pleasant. She wondered what it would be like to open a branch. Bai Yu said that they could give it a try.

But this "trial run" has already turned into a real driving experience.

Xie Lingqin's mood improved slightly, and she nodded to Suanpizi, "Let's go in through the back door and take a look."

"Okay."

Sour rinds immediately and nimbly followed suit.

Unexpectedly, someone was already waiting at the back door. Upon seeing Xie Lingqin, they immediately came forward and invited her in.

Xie Lingqin knew him; his name was He Zixuan. He was the accountant Bai Yu had found after Ning Xiucai got into trouble. She had met him once before; he was a young, slightly overweight but extremely composed man.
