"Uh... I think since you have promised the other party, you should keep your promise. Why should you share the other party's secret?" Lan Zheyu asked doubtfully.
Zhu Tong said: "Because I think deceiving others is a very tiring thing."
"This..." The two brothers looked at each other.
Lan Jinyu said, "I think breaking a promise is wrong. If you do that, the other person won't dare to tell you secrets in the future."
"Hmm..." Zhu Tong felt that what Lan Jinyu said made a lot of sense. She nodded and was about to say that she would keep her promise, but Lan Jinyu suddenly changed the subject and said, "However, deceiving others is wrong... If you really feel tired, you can share your secret. We two brothers can help you keep it a secret so that no one will know that you broke your promise."
Zhu Tong: “…” You humans are really cunning.
Zhu Tong snorted softly. Although she didn't quite understand what kind of moral code humans had, she was not a fool. What Lan Jinyu said was obviously unreliable. Zhu Tong thought seriously for a moment and said, "Wait, I'll go discuss it with her."
…
…
Outside the gate of Lan Mansion.
The guards stood far away on the roadside guarding the carriage, while Jun Weihe and Lan Zhi stood by the gate.
"Long time no see..." Jun Weihe looked at Lan Zhi's face. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he seemed to feel that Lan Zhi had become a little thinner?
Jun Weihe blurted out, "Have you not eaten well recently?"
"I..." Lan Zhi was stunned, recalling her previous time in the secret realm. Although she had food every day, the food was rather plain. However, the two babies in her belly were very well-behaved and didn't make a fuss. This was also related to her physical condition. With each major realm a cultivator advanced to, their physical fitness would improve. The "major realm" here refers to the transition from the Infant Yuan Realm to the Young Yuan Realm, and from the Young Yuan Realm to the Green Yuan Realm. After the spiritual energy circulates through the body, it will expel some impurities from the body. The transition from the Green Yuan Realm to the Complete Yuan Realm is equivalent to undergoing a bone-cleansing and marrow-cleansing process. The body will become purer and the strength will surge, but it still depends on eating, drinking, defecating, and urinating. Only after cultivating to a higher realm can one practice Bigu.
Lan Zhi replied, "I've been eating a little less lately."
Jun Weihe asked: "Why? Don't you have a good appetite?"
"Yeah." Lan Zhi said perfunctorily, because she didn't know how to face Jun Weihe. Guilt? A guilty conscience? Or perhaps some other emotion? Being in the dark, Lan Zhi couldn't tell the difference. She just suddenly remembered that in her "previous life", Yuan Zhan often looked at her with affectionate eyes, but never approached her, nor did he approach his daughter. His daughter was young and wanted a hug from her father, but Yuan Zhan always found excuses to change the subject, or emphasized that he only loved Lan Zhi and would only hug her. He didn't want to hug other people of the opposite sex, even if the other person was his child. At that time, Lan Zhi felt sorry for her daughter and tried to persuade Yuan Zhan several times, but Yuan Zhan always avoided her...
Thinking of this, Lan Zhi shook her head, because she suddenly found that every time she saw Jun Weihe recently, she couldn't help but recall the past.
Is it because of the pregnancy that I feel so sad...
No, it's not that I'm feeling sad, I'm just reminiscing about the past, and then I feel that my two children need their father's love...
"I know a restaurant. The dishes there are very unique and contain spiritual energy, which is good for the body. Can I take you there?" Jun Weihe asked.
Lan Zhi shook her head and said, "I don't want to go out."
Jun Weihe was silent for a moment, then said, "Then go back home and wait. I'll buy some food and bring it to you later."
"No need." Lan Zhi waved her hand, not wanting to trouble him, and said, "I'm not hungry yet."
As soon as he finished speaking, his body made a grumbling sound in a very embarrassing way.
Lan Zhi: “…”
It's embarrassing.
She turned her head to look at the sky, as if the cloud in the sky attracted her.
Jun Weihe looked at her profile and smiled, then said to himself, "Wait for me for a while, I'll be back soon."
After saying that, without waiting for Lan Zhi to answer, he used his spiritual power to perform the escape technique and left. Every time he approached Lan Zhi, Jun Weihe's magic skills would be suppressed, but his spiritual power was still there, and coupled with his superb escape technique, his speed was incredibly fast. In just a blink of an eye, he jumped more than ten meters away. Lan Zhi wanted to grab his sleeve but it was too late and could only watch his back disappear from her sight.
Lan Zhi: “…”
Guards: “…”
The guards have been paying attention to the situation here. After all, they followed Prince Jing to protect his safety and not let him out of their sight. Who knew that at the beginning, Prince Jing and Miss Lan Zhi were still standing there, but the prince suddenly ran away!
And running so fast!
"Don't just stand there, chase him!" The head of the guards was anxious. How could they let the prince escape under their noses?
One guard stayed behind to guard the carriage, while the other guards all chased after him. However, only the leader of the guards was at the Young Yuan realm, while the other guards were at the Infant Yuan realm and had not practiced any special escape techniques. They soon lost track of Prince Jing and walked back to the carriage dejectedly.
The head guard was in a slightly better situation. He chased for several dozen meters, but then, dazzled by the hustle and bustle of the streets, he lost track of Prince Jing and had to return unwillingly. Seeing Lan Zhi still standing at the gate, he walked over with a look of trepidation, bowed his head and said, "Miss Lan, I'd like to know where the prince is going in such a hurry to leave..."
Lan Zhi's image in front of outsiders has always been aloof and arrogant. Everyone thinks she is cold and doesn't like to talk to people. In fact, Lan Zhi is just used to staying at home and doesn't know how to integrate into other people's social circles. In addition, her outstanding temperament makes others afraid to get close to her, and Lan Zhi will not take the initiative to get close to others. Now that the head of the guards came to question her, Lan Zhi said in a casual tone: "The prince went to buy food."
"Buy... food?" Hearing this, the head guard was stunned. He thought, is there any need to rush to buy food? It's as if there are floods and beasts chasing after him. Even if the prince suddenly gets hungry, there's no need to run to buy food himself. Can't he just tell them to go?
The head guard was too tired to complain and politely bowed to Lan Zhi and said, "Thank you, young lady."
"You're welcome." Lan Zhi hadn't done anything to begin with, merely replying. She was wondering whether to continue standing at the door of the Lan Mansion, or return to her room to rest... Never mind, she might as well wait. Prince Jing was personally running errands for her, so waiting wasn't a big deal. However, she felt a little strange in her heart, because there was no harm without comparison. People of high rank and power rarely ran errands themselves, like Yuan Zhan, who always ordered servants to do the shopping...
Pah, pah, pah, why am I thinking of Yuan Zhan again? What bad luck.
