The two walked back toward the hall.
In the hall, the three of them were still chatting in a friendly manner. The atmosphere was good, but a slight sense of alienation could still be seen.
After all, the three of them had just gotten to know each other, not to mention that none of them were enthusiastic and lively, and they also lacked Dugu Yan as a mediator.
At this moment, seeing the two people coming back, the three of them cast their eyes over.
Especially when they saw that Dugu Yan's face no longer had the irritability she had at the beginning, they were all very curious about what Han Li had said to her.
As soon as Dugu Yan stepped into the hall, she shook off Han Li and ran straight towards Ye Lingling, with a smile reappearing on her face.
Soon, under Dugu Yan's guidance, the previous topic was quietly ignored and the conversation turned to other things.
Han Li only stayed in the hall for a short while, then said goodbye and left without disturbing their conversation.
He went around to the backyard and saw Dugu Bo drinking tea leisurely.
"Why are you here? Didn't Yanyan say she would take you to meet the little girl from the Ye family?"
Dugu Bo glanced at him, wondering why he didn't stay in front and came to find him, an old man.
"I came to ask Grandpa about the situation of the Ye family."
Han Li sat down opposite him without hesitation and poured himself a cup of tea.
"The Ye family? Why? Are you interested in them?"
Dugu Bo put down the cup and looked at his expression.
"I guess so. After all, I don't think any force would turn a blind eye to the Nine-Hearted Begonia."
Han Li took a sip of the fragrant hot tea, looked up and smiled.
"Nine-hearted Begonia, don't move. Especially with your current status, any rash action may cause a big commotion."
Dugu Bo's expression turned serious and he spoke seriously.
"Yes, I know. I just want to understand. Don't worry, I never do anything I'm not sure of."
Han Li added more tea to his glass, indicating that he knew the importance of the matter.
"Are you attracted to Miss Ye again?"
Dugu Bo looked at him for a long time and suddenly spoke.
"Ahem."
Han Li, who had just taken a sip of tea, was shocked by his words. He spat out a mouthful of tea and choked. He coughed several times before he recovered.
"What are you talking about? Ye Lingling was brought here by Sister Yan. I have never seen her before. And what do you mean by 'again'?"
Han Li glanced at the old man opposite with displeasure and gave him a dissatisfied look.
"It's not important. I can't control you anyway. With your personality, if you didn't fancy the girl from the Ye family, would you ask about the Ye family's affairs?"
Dugu Bo looked as if he had already guessed the truth, but he didn't seem angry at all.
The granddaughter has given herself to him, and she is willing to do it, so why should he interfere?
At least this guy is really good to his own people. Didn’t you see that Yanyan is almost a Soul Emperor? If you change to a grandson-in-law, no one else has this ability.
"Forget it, you'll know later, tell me first."
Han Li was too lazy to explain. Even if he said no, Dugu Bo would not believe it.
"Well, I knew it. Come, let me tell you..."
Seeing that he did not refute, Dugu Bo began to talk to him about the Ye family. ——Han Li stayed at Dugu's house until dinner, and then he returned to the Spirit Hall.
According to the agreement made with Qian Daoliu before departure, leaving aside Qian Renxue's matter, he had to stay in Tiandou Imperial City for at least seven days.
Of course, it's just a show, but the process still has to be followed.
Fortunately, he had made plans long ago and left enough time.
After Han Li returned to the room, he summoned his good son again, asked about the situations of several people he was particularly concerned about, and then began to practice.
In the next few days, Han Li's schedule was packed and he was very busy. It wouldn't be said that he was tired, but he was mentally exhausted and his face was almost stiff from smiling.
Sure enough, he was still not used to this kind of occasion. He was actually looking forward to Qian Renxue challenging him to a duel soon.
I just don't know if Qian Renxue did it on purpose. The two of them occasionally met in the next few days, and even had a routine contact, but she never mentioned the battle at all, and behaved just like the real Xue Qinghe.
Finally, at noon on the seventh day, Sarath came to tell him that everything was over, which made Han Li breathe a sigh of relief.
And in the evening of the same day, Qian Renxue also sent someone to deliver the news that the time and place for the battle had been chosen.
The day after tomorrow during the day, we will choose a manor under Xue Qinghe’s name.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
At that time, she will invite him to go out of the city for a trip in the name of Prince Tiandou, and the people there are all those who have infiltrated the Spirit Hall over the years and are absolutely reliable.
She also specifically told Han Li that he didn't need to worry about the spies, as she would send someone to take care of it, and he only needed to come with his strength.
Han Li smiled when he heard the words she sent someone to pass on. If nothing else, he was very confident.
As for what Qian Renxue said about her arranging everything, Han Li naturally, uh, didn't quite trust her.
Fortunately, this matter is nothing to him, and when the time comes, he can just let his good son monitor the situation from all angles.
As for if there is really a discovery, with Snake Spear, Thorny Pig and Dugu Bo, the person who is discovered should first consider escaping from the pursuit of the three.
Near Tiandou City, unless the top fighters of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect come out in full force, it will be a case of one who comes and one who dies.
As for a Saint of the Spirit Hall who looked the same age as his daughter and was simply out on business, even his strength was unknown. Ning Fengzhi probably wouldn't be so cautious.
The time for the duel was set, and Han Li had nothing to do, and he had a day free, so he went shopping with the girls.
During the days when Han Li was on official business, Dugu Yan and her friends had a lot of fun.
In Wuhun City, because of Han Li, they spent most of their time practicing. Even if they occasionally went out to play, they always felt that there were teachers and senior management watching them, and they always felt a little restrained.
Now, in Tiandou City, firstly, Han Li was too busy to take care of them for the time being, and secondly, Dugu Bo doted on his granddaughter and was also very tolerant towards other girls.
Now with Ye Lingling as an excuse, the four of them traveled around the area almost completely in just a few days.
Even Ye Lingling has been in much better condition these days because she has someone to accompany her.
In the afternoon, I don’t know what made Qian Renxue crazy, but she actually came over as Xue Qinghe and joined the actions of several people.
Of course, she could only choose to stay far behind the others with Han Li, not much different from the guards.
"Why are you here?"
Han Li lowered his voice, and although his face was smiling, his words and expression had nothing to do with each other.
"I don't want to either. This is my father. Oh, Xue Ye asked me to come. It's okay for Dugu Yan, but it's too late. You can't get too close to Ye Lingling."
"With your public appearance, your information has leaked out. Dugu Yan won't tell anyone yet, because no one knows when you two came into contact."
"But Shui Bing'er, the affairs of Tianshui College cannot be hidden from others. He asked me to come and check on the situation to prevent Ye Lingling from being abducted by you without knowing why. If such a thing really happened, it would be difficult for him to deal with the Ye family at that time."
Xue Qinghe also had a smile on his face, but his eyes were full of mockery.
His reputation was damaged. Han Li's expression remained unchanged, but in his heart he was severely condemning those people who dug up his past.
