Qian Youxue's brief silence essentially revealed her identity.
"This man has a sharp eye," she thought to herself, then looked up and saw a sly glint in his eyes. She figured this time it would be easy to invite a god but hard to send him away.
"Heal my illness, and I will grant you anything you desire." Xuan Mingye's expression turned serious, his deep eyes fixed on Qian Youxue's large eyes.
I am the king!
At this moment, Qian Youxue realized the address. After thinking carefully about what had happened at the palace banquet that day, she suddenly pointed at Xuan Mingye and said, "You wouldn't happen to be the rumored cold-blooded and ruthless Prince Zun, would you?"
"Doesn't it look like it?" Xuan Mingye casually played with her jet-black hair.
No, the eyes I saw when we made eye contact that day were black, completely different from the bewitching purple eyes.
"Stop thinking about it. Your guess is right. I'll tell you some things later. Now, what you need to do is detoxify me." Xuan Mingye saw through Qian Youxue's thoughts and shifted the topic back to the ailment in her body.
Qian Youxue blinked, carefully considering what Xuanming had just said, and then thinking about her own situation. She did need a strong backing, and the people the Qian family feared most were naturally those in the palace.
Compared to that disgusting crown prince, this prodigy is a much better choice. Rumor has it that Prince Zun has achieved numerous military exploits, even earning the emperor's favor. But will such a figure push her into the eye of the storm?
"Think it over carefully. I won't force you, but you should think it through. The old lady is getting old. If she wants to deal with the Liu family now, not just anyone can do it." Xuan Mingye said something profound, reluctantly letting go of her arm and getting out of bed.
Qian Youxue frowned, clearly this devil had done his homework before coming. Previously, she only wanted to find out the real culprit for the original owner of the body and hadn't given much thought to her grandmother's attitude towards Liu Shi. His words, however, made her want to investigate further.
"I'll come another day. You should practice your skills properly, lest you become the enemy's prey before you even make a move," Xuan Mingye said, tugging at his robe as he kept his eyes fixed on her ever-changing face.
Could it be that he knows I've made a contract with the psychic scroll?
Hehe~
Xuan Mingye smiled slightly but did not give an answer. He flashed out of the house and quickly disappeared into the night.
"Hello……"
Qian Youxue came to her senses and chased after him. The courtyard was empty, not a soul in sight. Even Yun He, who was highly skilled in martial arts, was not moving. This showed just how unfathomable this prince's abilities were.
If such a person were an enemy, given her current abilities, she would probably be less than an ant in comparison.
A cold wind swept in, making her teeth chatter. She shivered violently, rubbed her hands together, and ran back into the covers to warm herself up.
...
Three days later, in the morning, the old lady at the entrance of the Qian family's main gate led a group of people, looking longingly towards the city gate.
Before long, a carriage came from the other side, and the pageboy Ryukyu also returned, along with the coachman.
"Young Master, we've arrived! We're home!" Ryukyu exclaimed excitedly as he saw the old lady standing at the entrance of the Qian family's residence, lifting the curtain as he did so.
A handsome young man sat in the carriage. He looked remarkably like Su Shi and was none other than Qian Bowen, the eldest son of the Qian family.
cough cough…
Qian Bowen coughed twice, and a rare smile appeared on his pale face.
Even with spiritual roots, such a body cannot cultivate techniques. In this way, the Su family essentially gave birth to two useless people. However, he is the only young master of the Qian family, so Qian Sheng has no choice but to pay attention to him.
