Qingqiu left alone, but Jingzhe was not disappointed. Instead, he stood there and grinned foolishly.
They're leaving tomorrow, and they're going to Wuxian Pavilion this afternoon. If Qingqiu really agrees, their time together will actually be very short—at least for a tough guy like Jing Zhe.
If things don't go smoothly by then, it's certainly not what Jing Zhe wants.
So it's a good thing that Qingqiu is leaving now; at least she has no regrets and is just waiting to go to Jingzhou.
Separation progress: Qingqiu has been completed.
In the afternoon, we'll go to Wuxian Pavilion to quickly finish our discussions. The remaining time will belong to Mu Qingren and her apprentice Wang Yingqiu.
In the evening, he naturally went to Qiu Qianqian's place, since she had said she wanted to spend the night there, and Jing Zhe had to keep his word.
It seems that his bed was fully booked from afternoon to night. Luckily, he had taken jujube pills to protect himself, otherwise he would not have been able to handle it.
So Qingqiu's initiative to "withdraw" helped relieve some of his pressure, especially Qingqiu's last sentence, which was what excited Jing Zhe the most.
I'll agree to anything...
Having tried the master-apprentice rice bowl, Jing Zhe is already considering adding the sister rice bowl to the agenda, or a best friend rice bowl, or a sister & master-apprentice rice bowl together.
That's why he's so excited right now.
However, the only one left behind was Pei Yunxi, but there was nothing he could do about it. Pei Yunxi was a tough nut to crack, and he would have to wait until he had time to go to Kunlun County to slowly tackle her. So there was no other good solution at the moment.
After thinking things through, Jing Zhe returned to the Prince of Jin's residence.
After entering the manor, the servants all looked at him with utmost respect, because the man before them had single-handedly taken on all the sects and won...
From now on, all sects must listen to him; they simply cannot find any reason not to respect such a man.
Prince Jin also came out to greet him: "Congratulations, President Jing, on becoming the leader of the martial arts alliance! It was too crowded outside the arena earlier, and I didn't have a chance to congratulate you!"
As he spoke, he even cupped his hands in a respectable gesture towards Jing Zhe.
While the King of Jin was speaking, Jing Zhe observed carefully and found no pretense in his eyes. There were two possibilities: either he was a skilled actor, or he genuinely wished him well…
As for the second one, he absolutely refused to believe it.
But he still cupped his hands in thanks and replied, "Thank you, Prince Jin!"
Prince Jin waved his hand and said, "Now that President Jing has become the leader of the martial arts alliance, shouldn't he visit the various sects, or perhaps return to Jingzhou first to report to His Majesty?"
Jing Zhe looked at the Prince of Jin and smiled, "I am busy with official business and my schedule is equally complicated, so I will not go into details for you!"
"Haha, great!"
The Prince of Jin was not angry and continued, "When does President Jing plan to leave? I will hold a banquet to see you off!"
Too lazy to even speak to him, Jing Zhe had no desire to eat with him either, and immediately refused, saying, "I appreciate Prince Jin's kindness, but as I just mentioned, I have too many matters to attend to, so let's skip the meal! How about Prince Jin hosts a banquet to bid farewell to His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Upon hearing this, the Prince of Jin said with some regret, "That's fine too..."
After saying that, he left first, never showing any anger or dissatisfaction throughout the entire conversation, which made Jing Zhe even more suspicious and wary.
A barking dog doesn't bite; the current state of Prince Jin is what Jing Zhe is most worried about.
However, thinking about it, he wasn't too afraid. After all, he was already at the middle stage of the sixth level, and his lightness skill had officially entered the final level of the third level, "Following the Wind Like a Shadow," reaching a state of perfection. With the added benefit of grenades, he wouldn't be able to do anything to ordinary ambushes.
So I stopped thinking about it.
Just as he was about to leave, someone grabbed his clothes. When he turned around, he saw it was the little girl Su Xiaoxiao.
"When did the young princess arrive?"
Su Xiaoxiao was speechless: "I was here when Father was here, what, didn't you see me?"
Jing Zhe nodded earnestly: "Yes, the little princess's head is indeed not easy to notice unless you look closely. But if you look closely..."
As he spoke, his gaze unconsciously lingered on Su Xiaoxiao's graceful figure for a second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, or seventh time.
It has to be said that although Su Xiaoxiao is short, she has a delicate and sweet appearance and knows how to dress. In his opinion, the little loli characters in the comics he had read before were nothing special.
For example, right now, she is wearing a pink embroidered silk shirt on top and a loose pearl white long skirt on the bottom. Combined with her oval-shaped fair face and appearance, even Jing Zhe, who is used to seeing all kinds of beauties, can't help but take a second look.
Especially the embroidered silk robe she was wearing; whether it was too small or Su Xiaoxiao's figure was too good, every inch of the robe was stretched out, making her look incredibly sexy.
Although she was wearing a plain white cloak, the open design created a hazy, alluring effect that Jing Zhe found incredibly captivating.
She's still a child!
Jing Zhe cursed himself inwardly and lowered his head.
"What's wrong with looking closely?"
Su Xiaoxiao had no idea what Jing Zhe was thinking, but her curiosity was piqued by his words, so she couldn't help but ask him.
"have no idea…"
"have no idea?"
Su Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage: "How could I not know? Are you deliberately not going to tell me? If you don't want to tell me, then don't say it! Now you've piqued my interest, but you're not going to say anything. What kind of person are you?"
"Because I didn't dare to look closely, so I don't know..."
Jing Zhe defended himself.
"Then look carefully!"
Su Xiaoxiao stood with her hands on her hips, still very angry.
"Very well, since the young princess says so, I can only respectfully comply..."
As he spoke, Jing Zhe raised his head and looked at him without any restraint.
Because of her anger, Su Xiaoxiao's body trembled with rapid breathing. Jing Zhe, seeing this, felt his mouth go dry. He simply couldn't imagine how such a small body could contain so much... energy!
"Hey, did you find anything after looking closely?"
"I've discovered... the young princess is really big... oops, the young princess isn't small at all!"
Although the literal meaning is the same, the first sentence is always easy for people to misunderstand, so Jing Zhe changed his way of saying it.
"Pah, what do you think it is!"
Su Xiaoxiao spat in dissatisfaction, then puffed out her chest triumphantly and said haughtily, "I never intended to—"
As she spoke, she suddenly noticed Jing Zhe's greedy gaze piercing through the air and fixed directly on her…
Thinking back to what he had just said, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly realized: This bastard... shameless!
Her face instantly turned bright red. She quickly pulled her cloak forward, glared at Jing Zhe, and said with great dissatisfaction, "You shameless bastard, where...where are you looking? Who told you to look?"
Jing Zhe shrugged, looking helpless: "It was the young princess... oh, I mean the eldest princess who made me look at it!"
After saying that, he muttered to himself: "Hmm, it's quite big. I can't call her 'Little Princess' anymore..."
"..."
