Miao Ruyi drank three cups in a row, but Aoqian didn't drink a drop. Realizing what was happening, she quickly asked, "Why aren't you drinking?"
"That day, you took me away right under my subordinate's nose. How did you manage to do it without alerting him?" Ao Qian asked.
Miao Ruyi looked surprised. "On such a beautiful night, with such a lovely scene, how can you still have the leisure to talk about others?"
“To me, he is no one else,” Ao Qian said.
Miao Ruyi's lips curved into a smile. "You're so good to your subordinates, I'm almost jealous. But I can understand, your current situation isn't good and he's still sticking by your side. He's a loyal person. But from now on, you have me, you won't need anyone else."
“I made a promise with him that if I left without saying goodbye this time, he would worry about me.” Ao Qian’s tone was slightly cold.
Miao Ruyi raised an eyebrow. "Just a subordinate."
“Song Xiwei is more than just a subordinate,” Ao Qian corrected Miao Ruyi in a deep voice.
Miao Ruyi's nerves trembled when she heard the name Song Xiwei.
"Who? Who are you talking about?" Miao Ruyi's eyes suddenly lit up, completely different from when she looked at Aoqian.
“My subordinates,” Ao Qian repeated expressionlessly.
"His name is Song Xiwei, right?" Miao Ruyi asked excitedly. "So the subordinate who stood by you through thick and thin, even when facing the pressure of being an enemy of the Six Realms, was actually him!"
Miao Ruyi's expressions were very rich, which Aoqian found very strange.
"What? Is the princess also interested in my subordinates?" Aoqian's tone was even colder than before.
Miao Ruyi swallowed hard. "I used to cultivate in a way that kept me away from men, until one day during a training trip I met someone who captivated me for eternity..."
As Aoqian listened to Miao Ruyi's words, he suddenly had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, when Miao Ruyi's nose started bleeding, she wiped it away hastily. "He is someone I can't reach, someone I dream of, but someone I can't have."
Ao Qian: "..."
"I've never liked anyone so madly before. I thought men were all the same, but he was the first man to make me so infatuated with men... From then on, I started trying to understand men... Later, I had a harem of thousands of men, all kinds of men, and all kinds of men would submit to me. The one I was most proud of was the Bell of Joy. As long as they heard the sound of that bell, all men would be obedient to me. That bell spell only went wrong with you. I think there are still loopholes. I will find a way to improve it later."
Aoqian found Miao Ruyi's words increasingly strange, and now he seemed to be vaguely aware of some clues.
"You take so many men in, and you even practice such vulgar magic as bell-making, all for him?" Even Aoqian himself didn't realize that his tone was full of cold dissatisfaction.
Miao Ruyi's mind was filled with Song Xiwei, and she didn't notice Ao Qian's unusual behavior. She just excitedly said, "I fell in love with him at first sight, it was love at first sight, and I was heartbroken. Even if you are a rare gem, you can't compare to him. He is my white moonlight, my cinnabar mole, the person I can't have but I'm unwilling to let go of. I can't beat him, so I can only use these unorthodox methods... However, now there is a better way to use."
Miao Ruyi stared intently at Aoqian as she spoke, "I never expected that you, Young Master Aoqian, would be so useful. I'm so happy."
Ao Qian's expression grew increasingly grim. "What do you want to do!"
Miao Ruyi's eyes lit up as she said, "I can stay away from Young Master, but Young Master has to do me a favor. Let's make it a win-win situation. As long as Young Master can persuade Song Xiwei to be my consort, what I promised Young Master before will still stand. I won't force anything to happen between us. I only want Song Xiwei."
