Upon hearing this, the dean hesitated for a long time before saying, "Then can you let me see those books of yours?"
Duan Qingxi naturally believed the dean. She said, "I don't have the book with me, but if the dean wants to read it, I can go back and have someone send it over."
The dean said, "Okay."
In fact, the dean also wanted to see how powerful the so-called rune magic was, but seeing that Duan Qingxi and Nie Yun were a little tired, he didn't ask too much and let them go back to rest.
After returning, Duan Qingxi had just finished taking a shower and was getting dressed when he noticed something was wrong.
She was stunned for a moment, then quickly put on her clothes and ran out!
Sure enough, I saw a man standing beside the bed. He was staring at Xiaodai on the bed, his eyes full of curiosity.
On the contrary, Xiaodai, who was being observed, got furious.
"Nine Saints?"
After hearing the voice, Jiu Sheng looked at Duan Qingxi who was walking towards him, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up, "Where did you get this little fellow? He looks so weird."
Xiaodai was furious. You are the weird one, your whole family is weird!
Duan Qingxi stepped forward and held Xiaodai in his arms to comfort him, then looked at him and asked, "Why are you here?"
After a pause, she asked again, "Where did you go before?"
The man asked back, "Do you care where I go?"
Hearing this, Duan Qingxi didn't reply. Instead, he stroked Xiaodai's fur and asked, "Are you the Ninth Prince?"
It seems like a casual question, but it is actually full of temptations.
Although Jiu Sheng was a little surprised that she asked this, he showed confusion on his face.
But before he could say anything, Duan Qingxi sat down on his bed with Xiaodai in her arms and said calmly, "You'd better not deny it yet. You know, what I hate most is betrayal and deception! If one day I find out that you've lied to me..."
She raised her eyes to look at him, her eyes were full of coldness, "Jiu Sheng, I will never forgive you!"
Jiu Sheng didn't know why Duan Qingxi suddenly said such a thing, but her eyes made his heart tremble. At the same time, he couldn't help but wonder what she meant by this.
Could it be that...
But before he could figure out what was going on, Duan Qingxi said, "Go ahead. I'm tired and want to rest."
Jiu Sheng hadn't seen her for a long time, so he was naturally reluctant to let her go and didn't want to leave like that.
But when Duan Qingxi looked up at him, he suddenly felt a little nervous. Subconsciously, he did not dare to disobey her and had to leave.
As soon as he walked out of the room, he suddenly became confused.
Why should he listen to her?
But since everyone was out, he couldn't go back, thinking that there was still a lot of time left.
The next day, Duan Qingxi sent all the books to the dean, asked him to study them slowly with tutor Nie Yun, and then returned to Yun Mansion.
Yun Ting also followed him back. Duan Qingxi asked, "Why are you back too?"
Yun Ting said, "My mother said...you are going to marry the Ninth Prince?"
Duan Qingxi nodded, "Isn't this something we've known for a long time?"
Yun Ting was a little depressed, "I knew it a long time ago, but I think you are so good, that the Ninth Prince is definitely not worthy of you."
Duan Qingxi laughed. Seeing that he was in a bad mood, she asked, "So, how are things going between you and Instructor Lan Yue?"
At the dinner party, Yun Ting's cheeks turned red, "You...what are you talking about!"
Duan Qingxi didn't say anything else, just looked at him and smiled.
The little brat has also fallen in love for the first time, which is a good thing.
Lan Yue has a gentle personality, like a girl next door, which is quite suitable for Yun Ting's personality.
After returning to the Yun Mansion, Madam Yun thought about having someone dress Duan Qingxi up nicely, after all, attending a banquet in the palace was no small matter.
But Duan Qingxi was like a wild monkey. Even after returning to Yun Mansion, she was not in her boudoir all day long. She played everywhere and even urged Yun Ting to go to a brothel with her.
Mrs. Yun was so angry that she had no choice but to give up. Besides, everyone in the family doted on her, so she thought that if her daughter really couldn't get married, it would be fine to keep her at home.
After playing at home for a few days, Duan Qingxi finally waited for the day to go to the palace for a banquet.
In the evening, Yun Shen took Madam Yun, Duan Qingxi and Yun Jingnian to the banquet. Madam Yun was worried that Yun Ting's identity would be leaked, so she did not dare to bring Yun Ting to the banquet.
There were quite a few people at the banquet, including people from the four major families.
When Ji Yichen saw Duan Qingxi, he smiled and nodded at her, and Duan Qingxi also nodded at him.
Yun Shen took Duan Qingxi and the others to sit in the first row, followed by Patriarch Ji and Ji Yichen and the others, then Patriarch Yun and Yun Lang, and then Patriarch Bai and Bai Jianghua, and even Bai Yiyi was there.
Yun Lang and Bai Yiyi both had grudges against Duan Qingxi, so when the three of them met eyes, their expressions were all unhappy.
But... Duan Qingxi is a beauty after all. As Yun Lang looked at her, he began to have different thoughts.
He felt that they didn't have any deep hatred, so there was no need to target each other like this, and he wanted to repair the relationship between the two.
But Bai Yiyi didn't think so, especially since she had always been the most popular among all the rich girls in Lingdu. Now there was another Duan Qingxi, who was prettier than her, so naturally she was robbed of a lot of limelight and was very angry.
Especially since she had frequently shown kindness to Ji Yichen before, but Ji Yichen completely ignored her, she concluded that Duan Qingxi had used some seductive tricks, and she hated him to the core.
Duan Qingxi didn't know what they were thinking and was too lazy to care.
When the king arrived with his highnesses, everyone stood up and paid homage.
