The group returned to the central city of the Dream Sin Empire.
Originally named Dream City, it now has to be renamed Dream Sin City.
Sin of dreams, sin of dreams, sin of the heart.
In the name of the crime, it is inscribed on the nation's name, to be remembered forever.
It was already late, and even though Quan Ji and her companion had obtained the Ancient Yuan Sword and the Crimson Feather Sword, two divine artifacts specifically designed to counter curses, they were in no hurry to lift the curse from the people of the Dream Sin Empire.
You should get some rest.
Quan Ji walked ahead the whole way, refusing to even glance at Jun Chenlan.
In the middle of the journey, in order to remind Jun Chenlan to come and find her, she even stepped back to hold Yan Xingchen's hand.
But Jun Chenlan was like a blockhead, completely oblivious to everything, showing no reaction whatsoever and offering no attempt to comfort her.
Enraged, Quan Ji gritted her teeth and, taking Yan Xingchen with her, transformed into a golden flash and teleported towards the Imperial Palace.
Seeing this, Jun Chenlan also teleported to follow.
This indecisive, half-hearted attitude is driving me crazy.
Even after returning to the Dream Sin Imperial Palace, Jun Chenlan made no comment whatsoever.
Quan Ji was completely disillusioned with this man. Anyway, she was focused on her career, so if he ignored her, so be it.
She lowered her head and spoke quietly to Yan Xingchen, her voice not subtle enough for Jun Chenlan to hear.
"Xingchen, let me tell you, never choose a man casually in the future."
"Men are the most shameless creatures. When they can't have you, you are the apple of their eye. They spend their nights thinking about you while getting IV drips. But once they get you, you are just a piece of grass. They can throw you away whenever they want. They won't even bother to comfort you after stepping on you."
"Oh... I didn't mean anything by it. This young lady is as beautiful as an angel, stunningly beautiful, and incredibly strong. Would I get so angry that I would make a veiled insult to a man? That's hilarious."
Quan Ji's voice already carried a somewhat cold tone, and now, with the addition of sarcasm, the irony was even more pronounced.
Yan Xingchen: "...You're right."
Is the young lady really such a greasy woman?
My life is oily, but not Heaven's?
The moment Yan Xingchen had this thought, Quan Ji caught it.
Oh... she didn't use her mind-reading ability to hear a certain man's voice; she just felt that it was too quiet today and there was no atmosphere.
Quan Ji said to Yan Xingchen, "What's so greasy about it? I only act this way with you because I like you, and you don't even know how to care about me."
Yan Xingchen: "...Miss, can you hear what I'm thinking?"
Quan Ji scoffed, "Otherwise, whose opinion should we listen to? Should we listen to a man's opinion?"
Yan Xingchen: "..."
No wonder she was making veiled attacks at me; she truly lives up to her status as a young lady.
When Quan Ji heard this idea, it was exactly what she wanted.
A blush crept onto her cool and beautiful face, and she quickly said, "Alright, I'll sleep with you tonight. I'm a noble lady, not a woman that men can easily obtain."
Yan Xingchen: "...Oh."
You are definitely not a woman that men can easily obtain.
But why does she feel like you're so eager to get your hands on a certain man?
The adult world is so complicated... it's hard to understand.
This is probably because she is still a child.
She also needs to learn to grow up!
Quan Ji: "...Don't imitate this."
Yan Xingchen: "...Could you please stop reading minds, Miss? Give the child some privacy."
Quan Ji coughed lightly, and the golden light in her eyes faded.
"Let's go, give some instructions for tomorrow morning's coronation ceremony, and then go to sleep."
As she spoke, she pushed Yan Xingchen away from there, her awkward eyes occasionally glancing furtively in Jun Chenlan's direction.
However, Jun Chenlan just kept staring at Quan Ji without saying a word, as if he was thinking about something. His expression remained unchanged, and he didn't say a word. He was like a dead wooden block, which almost made Quan Ji draw her sword and fight him to the death on the spot.
What an insensitive and clueless man!
On the spot, Quan Ji took Yan Xingchen away to find relevant personnel to make some preparations for tomorrow's coronation ceremony.
This time, Jun Chenlan did not follow. Instead, he opened his palm, and the stick he was holding was almost broken. Sweat was also forming on his palm.
"Master Shenxuan said that fate exists, but it is not absolute."
"So... even if Princess Quan continues down this path, is it possible for me to change this outcome?"
He muttered to himself, but in the end, it all turned into a long sigh. He shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's take it one step at a time... But this fortune slip cannot be deciphered by Quan Ji, nor can she know about it."
Jun Chenlan wanted to clear his mind, so he wandered around the Mengzui Imperial Palace.
After everything was tidied up, Quan Ji and Yan Xingchen lay down on the large bed in the palace.
The two lay there for a full twenty minutes, neither of them showing any sign of wanting to sleep.
Quan Ji: Why aren't you asleep yet?
Yan Xingchen was a little embarrassed: "Miss... your eyes are a bit bright."
"..."
At this moment, Quan Ji is using her supernatural abilities to try and see what Jun Chenlan is up to.
As everyone knows, when Quan Ji uses her supernatural powers, a thin layer of golden light appears in front of her eyes.
However, when Master Shenxuan revealed some profound mysteries this time, the brown in her eyes successfully turned gold, and her superpower seemed to have been upgraded... Using it so late at night was indeed quite frightening.
She felt awkward, but she didn't say anything.
Yan Xingchen knew what Quan Ji was thinking and could understand why Quan Ji was angry.
Her voice was sweet and youthful as she said, "Young Miss, didn't Sister Ruoqiu say that she hopes you and Marshal Jun can get along well?"
At this moment, Jun Chenlan was not by his side, and Quan Ji, who had been reborn, was only seventeen years old and still a child.
She finally said in a huff, "So it's my fault? He was so mysterious and wouldn't tell me anything. He was like a block of wood and didn't even come up to comfort me. He has no sense at all. If he had just come up to comfort me, would I blame him? I had my face practically screaming 'Come and comfort me!' Why didn't he comfort me?"
Quan Ji spoke a string of words without interruption.
You can tell from that he's always angry.
Yan Xingchen thought that it was quite cute that the usually domineering young lady could also show such a girlish and delicate side at this time.
It's even more realistic now that it's so domineering.
Yan Xingchen said, "Marshal Jun is a bit reserved, but Ruoqiu and I can both see that he absolutely loves you. You two will be living together for a very long time, so why hold a grudge over such a small conflict? Besides... Miss is so capable, why does he have to come and coax you? Just as you said, Marshal Jun is like a block of wood, why don't you go and force him to coax you? As the saying goes, couples quarrel at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed..."
Yan Xingchen brought out all the advice she had ever given to couples.
Before she could finish speaking, Quan Ji suddenly jumped up in fright.
"Do couples who quarrel in bed make up before they even get out of bed?"
"I see."
Immediately, Quan Ji transformed into a golden flash and disappeared from the spot.
Yan Xingchen: "???"
What do you understand?
What are you thinking?!
