After strolling through the bustling morning market.
Seeing the smile on Aoqian's face, Song Xiwei said, "Where else do you want to go? I'll go with you!"
Aoqian glanced at her in surprise, but then composed himself, shook his head, and his smile faded.
Song Xiwei asked, puzzled, "Are you tired?"
“I’ve had a good balance between work and rest, and I’ve relaxed. I also understand the meaning of your bringing me to the human world. Now, it’s time to get down to business.” Ao Qian suddenly looked at Song Xiwei very seriously.
Their eyes met, and Song Xi blinked slightly. "So soon?"
"Aren't you in a hurry?" Aoqian asked her in return.
Song Xi smiled and said, "Haste makes waste. I'm just trying to be as steady as possible and take each step carefully."
"I don't want to get fat overnight, nor do I want to force growth, but I don't want to waste each other's time. I need to become stronger, at least in front of the enemy, so that you can't be the only one protecting me."
Aoqian's tone was very firm.
Song Xiwei nodded slightly. "Okay, tell me about your plans for the future."
The previous incidents all went wrong because Aoqian refused to tell Song Xiwei the truth.
It was obvious that Aoqian and she weren't on the same page at that time, which is why they acted that way.
But things are different now; Aoqian won't hide it from her like that anymore.
"Have you heard of Peak Wave Valley?" Ao Qian asked.
Upon hearing this, Song Xiwei smiled and asked, "Is it Fengbo Valley, where it snows all year round?"
“That’s right, it’s that peak and valley.” Ao Qian nodded.
“Speaking of which, the old master of Fengbo Valley left me a token. I didn’t expect it to come in handy, but if you choose to seek refuge there, I might have a chance to use it.” As Song Xiwei spoke, she took out a jade token.
The jade plaque features a snowflake pattern resembling peaks and valleys.
Ao Qian was amazed. "How did you manage to not only hold a permanent pass to Ziyun Peak, but also casually produce the token of Fengbo Valley?"
Song Xiwei did not answer Aoqian's question, but simply smiled and raised an eyebrow, "Young Master still hasn't told me why you thought of Fengbo Valley?"
“My mother once said that if I ever encounter difficulties in the future and want a quiet place, I can go here.” As he spoke, Aoqian opened his palm and actually took out a jade pendant that was exactly the same as Song Xiwei’s.
However, upon closer inspection, Aoqian's jade pendant is somewhat different; the edge of its snowflake pattern is a darker color than Song Xiwei's.
“Alright, we’ll have to give up training in the Trial Grounds for now, but Peak Valley is a pretty good place. Once we’re settled there, I’ll find a way to give you special training. Don’t worry, with me here, I’ll make sure you soar to great heights!” Song Xiwei was very confident in herself.
Aoqian looked at her, revealing her pearly white teeth. In the night, Song Xiwei's eyes held a myriad of galaxies, but now, under the sunlight, her smile was more dazzling than any earthly firework.
The curve of her lips was so captivating that it made him stare in disbelief.
Until her pleasant voice called out to him, "Young Master, what are you daydreaming about?"
She frowned, her smile fading slightly, but her stunningly beautiful face still captivated and terrified.
He seemed to have his soul ripped out, listening blankly as she spoke.
He stared blankly like a little fool.
She was amused by him again. "Young Master, what are you laughing at? I'm asking for your opinion, and you're not saying anything, just laughing. What's the meaning of that?"
Aoqian's face flushed.
He didn't want it to be like this, but seeing Song Xiwei's gloating and clueless look, he suddenly felt ashamed that he had thrown himself into such a state of chaos because of her every smile and frown.
He said somewhat awkwardly, "Whether I laugh or not is none of your business!"
