Ling Luo looked up: "You're here?"
Bai Ying also respectfully stood up and greeted Ye Xingxue: "Your Highness the Crown Prince."
"Hmm." Ye Xingxue nodded, her gaze subtly sweeping over their faces. "What are you talking about?"
Bai Ying wasn't very familiar with Ye Xingxue, but he knew her to some extent. He felt that Ye Xingxue's gaze towards him today was more inquisitive and scrutinizing than usual.
Before he could answer, Ling Luo said, "Let's talk about some issues related to potions."
"Have you been talking about potions the whole time?"
"Hmm." Ling Luo nodded, then suddenly said, "You came earlier today than the past few days."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xingxue paused for a moment and said, "Yes, it is a bit early. School ended a bit early today."
Ling Luo, unsuspecting, nodded: "Oh."
Seeing that Bai Ying was still there, and remembering that he had invited her to dinner earlier, he said, "I don't want to leave the library, so I won't have dinner with you."
Bai Ying didn't press the matter: "Okay."
Just now, Ye Xingxue said that Ling Luo was busy, so Bai Ying assumed that they had something to talk about and said without much thought, "Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, please continue with your business. I'll be going now."
Ling Luo and Ye Xingxue both nodded.
Bai Ying left.
Ling Luo's attention returned to the book.
Ye Xingxue sat down in the chair next to her. Seeing her engrossed in her book, he gently closed it. Ling Luo was taken aback and turned to look at him: "What's wrong?"
Ye Xingxue hesitated for a moment before speaking: "I... I heard that you and Bai Ying have been chatting in the library these past two days, and you seem to have a lot to talk about."
Someone even filmed it.
He couldn't hear what they were saying in the video, but they seemed to have endless topics to discuss and kept talking.
Why is she only focused on reading now that he's here?
Ling Luo didn't know why he suddenly brought this up, and truthfully replied, "It's alright."
Night Snow fell silent.
Ling Luo looked at him: "Why aren't you saying anything?"
Ye Xingxue lifted her eyelids and looked at her: "What do you think of Bai Ying?"
"Fortunately, he has a talent for potions and good comprehension."
Ye Xingxue paused for a moment: "That's it?"
"Well, not very familiar with them, and I don't know much else about them."
Her eyes were clear, but there was a hint of confusion in them, as if she didn't understand why he suddenly asked her these questions.
Seeing this, Ye Xingxue smiled and reached out to hug her.
Ling Luo looked puzzled: "What's wrong?"
"nothing."
She was somewhat oblivious when it came to matters of the heart.
He hoped she would come to her senses soon.
But sometimes I worry that he wasn't the one who enlightened her...
Thinking of this, he kissed her ear a few times to calm himself down before letting go and changing the subject: "You said you were talking about potions? What kind of potions were you talking about?"
"It was an interesting question assigned to them by their teacher."
"The question about the longevity prescription?"
Ling Luo was somewhat surprised: "You knew?"
"Hmm." He realized what he meant: "You already have this prescription in mind?"
Ling Luo nodded: "Yes, it's a very ordinary prescription."
Ye Xingxue listened, and for a moment she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He wasn't a pharmacy major, but he knew about pharmacy.
He had already seen the question when it was handed out.
He immediately knew that this was a prescription for longevity.
He didn't delve into it further after that.
However, as far as he knew, this prescription was developed by a master pharmacist two thousand years ago, and recently someone found a fragment of it, but was unable to return it.
Upon learning that it was a longevity-enhancing prescription, many master pharmacists became very interested.
Several months have passed, but no one has made any progress.
Everyone thinks it's very difficult.
But she—
Thinking of this, Ye Xingxue smiled, but then he also thought of a question: "You didn't tell Bai Ying the answer?"
Ling Luo shook her head: "He won't learn anything from simply telling him the answer."
Night Snow knew this.
However, if Bai Ying didn't figure it out in a day, he would likely frequently ask her for help.
"If he keeps asking you questions in the future, won't you find it annoying?"
Ling Luo shook her head: "No."
"Why?"
"I'm quite interested in these things."
At this point, she noticed the book he had closed and hesitated for a moment: "Can I... continue reading?"
Looking into her eyes, Ye Xingxue knew that she hadn't thought about it at all; she was just worrying unnecessarily.
He chuckled and pecked at the corner of her lips. "No."
Ling Luo frowned, somewhat displeased: "Why?"
Even so, she wasn't angry, nor did she say she wanted to take the book back; she simply wanted to know the reason.
He smiled helplessly: "Aren't you hungry?"
Ling Luo then realized that she hadn't eaten anything yet.
She took out a nutrient solution from her storage bag and handed him a packet, then looked at him with her beautiful eyes, as if to say, "Is it okay now?"
Night Snow smiled silently and shook her head.
Before Ling Luo could speak, Ye Xingxue rubbed her head and said, "It's not good to read while eating. You can read after you finish eating."
"oh."
Hearing this, Ling Luo had no objection and went to drink her nutrient solution seriously.
In less than two minutes, she finished the nutrient solution in her hand, threw the bag into the trash can beside her, and looked at him: "Is it okay now?"
Ye Xingxue smiled and returned the book to her.
Ling Luo picked up the book and continued reading.
Half an hour later.
Bai Ying is back.
Thinking about how hard Ling Luo was working, Bai Ying skipped his afternoon nap and came to the library again.
Seeing that Ye Xingxue was still there, he greeted her, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Your Highness, I would like to ask the Crown Princess some questions—"
Ye Xingxue nodded: "Ask away."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Bai Ying's question sounded quite difficult, but Ling Luo didn't reply with many words. Instead, she handed him a book and told him to read it himself.
Bai Ying nodded and focused on reading her book.
They then went about their own business.
Seeing this, Ye Xingxue felt relieved and focused on reading her own book.
In the afternoon, when it was time for class, Ye Xingxue had class and left first.
Bai Ying didn't have classes, so she stayed in the library.
3 PM.
Luo Yi entered the library and, while looking for a book, saw Bai Ying and Ling Luo sitting together. She stopped in her tracks.
At this time, there are still many people in class.
There weren't many people in the library.
There are still plenty of empty spaces around.
But Bai Ying sat with Ling Luo instead of sitting alone.
them……
When did we become so close?
