"I’ve come to see you. I knew that my little Chuxi would definitely be outstanding." Huangfu Qingjue smiled slightly and walked forward. He reached out to push a few strands of Ling Chuxi’s hair behind her ear.
Huangfu Qingjue’s hand was very warm. When it brushed against Ling Chuxi’s ear, her heart skipped a beat. f\reewebn ovel(.)com
"Let the sad old man handle it," Huangfu Qingjue said casually.
Qingjue, Qingjue. It’s so nice that we could meet.
As night approached the next day, the round table at the posthouse was filled with dishes. Li Shaoqiu held his chopsticks in one hand and a spoon in the other. He leaned over the table and attacked the food eagerly. The aroma of food was even more enticing when he ate at the same table as his idols. The most important thing was that if he did not act fast enough, he would starve again. It would be absolutely torturous to watch the match on an empty stomach.
Looking at the dark night outside her window, Ling Chuxi’s lips slowly curved into a wide smile. Right then, her heart was even more determined.
"I am here to give you all a reminder. For the next match, it is most likely that we, Dong Xing Country, will be competing against Nan Xia Country. You had better be well prepared," Xiao Tianying said seriously.
"I’ve been searching for a few places and there are already some prospects of a solution." Huangfu Qingjue smiled faintly. He reached out and gently caressed Ling Chuxi’s cheeks, letting out a soft sigh. "My little Chuxi, grow up quickly and continue to be stronger." ’And then go with me to release my remaining seals. I will be in the form of my true self then, and I can be by your side forever.’
"Alright. I’ll wait for you." Huangfu Qingjue chuckled, then leaned forward and pressed a kiss to her forehead. "Rest well to face the upcoming matches." With a final smile, he stood up and left.
"That’s not what I meant! I thought you would attend this competition as the divine messenger of the Deity Temple." Huangfu Qingjue’s smile was making Ling Chuxi’s heart feel warm.
"I thought... You would attend this time," Ling Chuxi whispered hesitantly as she gazed into Huangfu Qingjue’s mesmerizing purple eyes.
A slender and aloof figure slowly walked in. The person was shocked by Li Shaoqiu’s table manners. It was obvious that they did not expect that Li Shaoqiu, an offspring of an official, would actually have such indecent table manners.
"Am I not here now?" Huangfu Qingjue smiled gently and sat beside Ling Chuxi.
...
The person who came was none other than Xiao Tianying!
"Oh, it’s the jinx. Why are you here?" Both Li Shaoqiu’s cheeks were bulging with food as he looked at Xiao Tianying with wide eyes.
"You...What are you busy with?" Ling Chuxi stared at Huangfu Qingjue, unable to resist asking. It seemed like Huangfu Qingjue was always busy, but what was he really busy with? Ling Chuxi wanted to know, and sometimes her mind tended to wander when it came to him.
"I will become stronger. I definitely will," Ling Chuxi looked at Huangfu Qingjue with sparkling eyes and said in a determined tone.
Xiao Tianying glared icily at Li Shaoqiu, who choked on his food and started coughing. Li Shaoqiu quickly drank a mouthful of soup and lowered his head as he continued to eat speedily.
"Ah...." Ling Chuxi was slightly stunned and nodded. She only regained her senses when Huangfu Qingjue’s figure had disappeared. She reached out and touched her own forehead. It was as if the warmth of Huangfu Qingjue’s lips still remained there.
"Then what about Shang Yuan Country?" Ling Chuxi asked, pondering over Xiao Tianying’s words. According to the competition schedule, one team had to defeat Shang Yuan Country first, only then would they have the chance to fight the other team. However, Xiao Tianying seemed to be implying that Shang Yuan Country would not be participating in the next match.
