"So, what does Miss mean..."
“If they’re not the Emperor’s people, then…” Xie Lingqin raised her hand to her brow, her voice cold, “then they really have ulterior motives.”
Upon hearing this, Zihe immediately became alert. Could it be that he might be interested in the young master...?
“It’s alright. To outsiders, Xie Danling is such a good-for-nothing that no one will do anything to him. As for those spoiled brats, they should be quiet for a while now that they’ve been stung by bees. But Xie Danling…” Xie Lingqin’s eyes suddenly narrowed into a slow smile, “He surprised me a bit today. It seems he’s not so bad after all.”
"Of course, young master is, after all, your younger brother from the same parents."
Zihe Road.
Xie Lingqin nodded, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
"By the way, how long have we been delayed here?" Xie Lingqin suddenly remembered this.
Zihe suddenly realized something, "It's been almost two hours, Prince Yi..."
"Tell the driver to hurry up."
Although Xie Lingqin said that, she didn't seem to be in a hurry.
Xu Yiran, Xu Weizhen.
This person gave her a strange sense of familiarity and closeness, and looking at him, she felt an intense desire to get closer to him.
This feeling is quite strange.
In a small room of Tianxia Yiwei.
Yu Qingyi had already drunk three pots of tea out of sheer boredom.
As Bai Yu passed by and watched, her eyelids began to droop.
Originally, Prince Yi was not allowed to enter since he hadn't gotten a number, but he actually climbed over the wall and came in. Remembering that she had come with Xie Lingqin that time, Bai Yu didn't chase him away.
They ate two bowls of spicy hot pot and drank three pots of his good tea.
"Brother, why hasn't Brother Yanshe come to Tianxia Yiwei these past few days?"
At this moment, Bai Ling walked over from behind Bai Yu, her brows furrowed with worry.
"This..." Bai Yu hesitated whether to tell her younger sister that Yan She was Xie Lingqin, but she was afraid of hurting her sister's feelings.
"No need to rush."
Just then, Yu Qingyi lifted the curtain of the small room and walked out listlessly, his gaze falling on Bai Ling. "She'll be here soon. I'm just waiting for her."
"Did the young master say he was waiting for Miss Xie when he came earlier?"
When the name Miss Xie was mentioned, a hint of resentment could be seen in Bai Yu's eyes.
Yu Qingyi, usually a very clever person, was extremely bored while waiting and didn't notice Bai Ling's expression. Instead, he raised his hand, looking particularly pleased. "Miss Xie, isn't it just about Yan She? Didn't your brother tell you? Judging from your brother's expression, he knows."
As soon as Yu Qingyi finished speaking, he pulled the curtain down heavily again, went inside, and lay down casually.
That Xie Lingqin, that brat, she just called him Sister Qin and then stood him up, making him wait so long.
Looking across the entire world, not to mention Bei Rong, no one in the entire world would dare to make him wait like this.
Outside, Bai Ling's eyes were dark as she looked at her brother in disbelief. "Brother, just now, Prince Yi said..."
Although Bai Yu was extremely annoyed with Yu Qingyi, now that things were out in the open, he didn't hold back. He figured a short, sharp pain was better than a long, drawn-out one, and maybe things would be better once his sister understood.
“What Prince Yu said is correct.”
"No wonder, no wonder!" Bai Ling stomped her foot angrily upon hearing this, then turned and went into the kitchen.
Bai Yu hurriedly chased after him.
At that moment, the curtain opened again.
Yu Qingyi's slightly closed eyes suddenly snapped open. Looking at the person standing before him, his usually lazy and carefree expression stiffened slightly. "You..."
"What, it seems the young master isn't very welcoming of me."
Nie Zuier flicked her sleeves and sat opposite Yu Qingyi. Her former red lips, alluring eyes, and heavy makeup were now just right.
However, people who are naturally alluring can exude charm with just a glance or a word.
However, Yu Qingyi's expression was inexplicably serious, and he even looked somewhat embarrassed. "What do you want from me?"
"I would like to ask the young master for a favor."
Nie Zui'er curled her lips into a smile.
Yu Qingyi flatly refused, "I won't help you."
"Yu Qingyi." Nie Zuier gave a charming smile, but one could sense the bitterness within it. "This is what you owe me."
Yu Qingyi's ever-smiling peach blossom eyes swept across Nie Zuier's face. After a moment, she leaned back and said, "I won't help you. No matter what you say, I won't help you."
"Yu Qingyi." Nie Zuier suddenly stood up, and as she spoke, a sharp blade was already pressed against Yu Qingyi's throat.
It can kill in an instant.
However, Yu Qingyi didn't even blink. His peach-blossom eyes met Nie Zuier's cold and fierce gaze. "Your father is dead. He hopes you will have a good life for the rest of your days."
"You really won't help me?"
"I won't help."
“I’m just using you as a favor, aren’t you going to…” Nie Zuier didn’t get down.
Their eyes met, swords clashed, sparks flew, and a myriad of emotions surged within them.
"Oh." Just then, the curtain was suddenly lifted, revealing Xie Lingqin's face, which was both surprised and amused. "You two, are you talking about love or flirting? Your poses are quite trendy."
Yu Qingyi sat down, while Nie Zuier leaned over the table...
Nie Zuier looked at Xie Lingqin, her beautiful eyes curving upwards, "I'm giving you face."
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, he stepped back to his seat and sheathed his blade.
Xie Lingqin then went inside.
Behind them, besides the purple river, there was also white jade.
Bai Yu's jade-white face looked troubled. She glanced at Nie Zui'er out of the corner of her eye, then quickly and carefully looked away.
"Perfect, since you two are both here, I don't need to split up to look for them."
