When Ning Rongrong heard that Xue Qinghe actually wanted to take Ye Qiu away, how could this be allowed?
Ning Rongrong spoke without much courtesy.
She forcefully took Ye Qiu's arm.
"Xiao Lan is right! If Ye Qiu goes with you, then the time he spends with me will be reduced! Qinghe Senior Brother, you better wait for us to come back from shopping!"
"Hehe~" Xue Qinghe felt a bit uneasy in his heart, but still smiled indifferently and turned to look at Ye Qiu. "Is Brother Ye Qiu also of this opinion?"
Although Ye Qiu was curious about what Xue Qinghe wanted to talk to him about, he couldn't leave the two girls alone at the moment.
He could only smile apologetically and say, "Hehe~ Xue Big Brother! Sorry, let's do it next time!"
"Hehehe." Xue Qinghe's corner of the eye twitched, and his laughter sounded somewhat unnatural, clenching his fist covered by his sleeve.
Under the calm expression hid a hidden anger!
This guy! Does he know how I've been spending these days?
Every time he received news of his appearance at the Tian Dou Royal Academy, he rushed over, but he always ended up empty-handed!
He left his official duties to find him, but he dared to go to accompany women, left and right?
This guy is really a hedonistic playboy, driven by lust!
Seeing Ye Qiu about to leave with the two girls, Xue Qinghe's thoughts quickly turned, deciding to make his intentions clear.
Suddenly, there were some subtle soul fluctuations emanating from him.
"Haha~ It's actually easy to handle. Since I'm looking for Brother Ye Qiu, it won't take much time. How about all of you come to my mansion for lunch or afternoon tea!?"
"Hmm?" As expected, Ye Qiu's eyes, with his Sharingan, flashed uncontrollably, meeting Xue Qinghe's surprised gaze. He had some insight.
"Is this guy going to talk to me about the resonance of martial souls?"
Thinking of this, Ye Qiu didn't want to refuse anymore. He grabbed Ning Rongrong's small hand and gestured for her not to speak for now.
"Since Xue Big Brother has invited us repeatedly, I have no reason to refuse. Brother Ye Qiu will come to disturb you at noon!"
"Hoo~" Hearing Ye Qiu's answer, Xue Qinghe also breathed a sigh of relief. He had been waiting long enough!
"Hmph~ What a bother!" Beside him, Ning Rongrong grumbled displeasedly. She had claimed the daytime as her time with Ye Qiu.
"Alright~ Since we're going to eat after shopping anyway, let's just choose a restaurant now!" Seeing her still complaining, Ye Qiu had to comfort her.
"..." Xue Qinghe on the side had a few black lines on his forehead at these words.
He suddenly wondered if he had given this guy too much face?
This person is really lawless, daring to treat the prince's mansion as a restaurant!
Biting his back molars, although he was unhappy, his education did not allow him to tear Ye Qiu's mouth apart now. He still had to smile and agree.
"Brother Ye Qiu is right. If Rong Rong Junior Sister gets tired of shopping early, she can come over anytime. My Prince's mansion is always open to welcome you!"
"Big Brother, can Xiao Lan order food?" Hearing that they could eat again, Xiao Lan's eyes lit up. She raised her little hand, looking innocent and romantic.
"Order... order food?!" Xue Qinghe was stunned for a moment, bitter in his heart. Did this guy really treat his Prince's mansion as a restaurant?
But looking at the petite and lovely Xiao Lan, he couldn't help but think of his sister Xue Ke. He didn't want to argue too much, so he nodded with a wry smile.
"Of course, if you have any favorite dishes, you can tell me in advance!"
"That's great! Big Brother, here you go!" Xiao Lan cheered and, with a flash of her soul device on her finger, took out a paper full of dishes and handed it to Xue Qinghe with joy.
"..." Looking at the densely packed characters on it, Xue Qinghe was momentarily stunned.
"Ah~" Xiao Lan exclaimed in pain. Her smile, which had not blossomed for long, was beaten back to its original form by Ye Qiu.
"Brother?!" Holding her head in pain and blinking her teary eyes, she looked at Ye Qiu, who was staring at her.
"Ha-ha-ha." Seeing Xiao Lan's actions, Ning Rongrong also couldn't help but laugh.
"Haha. Brother Ye Qiu, it's not a problem! Since I'm inviting you to dinner, it's only right to prepare some dishes you like!"
Even Xue Qinghe, seeing this scene, the slight unhappiness in his heart had dissipated.
"Hehe~ Then it's troublesome for Xue Big Brother!" Ye Qiu smiled apologetically.
"Well! In that case, I won't disturb you anymore! I should go and visit the teacher!" After saying that, Xue Qinghe walked towards the office of Ning Fengzhi.
"Ye Qiu, we won't ride horses anymore. Just take us there directly!" After Xue Qinghe's figure disappeared from view, Ning Rongrong looked at the sky, her expression somewhat lost. She gave up the original plan to ride horses with Ye Qiu.
"Well, that's fine!" Ye Qiu nodded. He saw Xiao Lan still looking sad, so he couldn't help but pinch her puffed cheeks.
"Alright, don't be sad. Remember to add what brother likes next time!"
"Ah, brother is so mean!" The look that was teary just now turned into a charming one.
"Haha, and mine too!" Ning Rongrong also joined in teasing.
"Hehe." Ye Qiu chuckled twice, holding their hands, activating his divine might space, and disappeared with laughter.
...
Entering the city, they arrived at the streets of Tian Dou City.
Ye Qiu thought that accompanying them shopping would be very painful, but unexpectedly, as soon as they entered the city, Ning Rongrong took Ye Qiu to try on clothes.
Because they would have a feast later, Xiao Lan didn't buy much, just some snacks along the way.
When buying things, Ye Qiu found out how extravagant Ning Rongrong was. As long as it fit, she basically bought it.
When Ye Qiu walked out of the fitting room for the last time, he was already wearing a slim white brocade robe. He looked much more capable.
Silver clouds were embroidered on the top, with golden threads running along the edges. The blue, medium-length disheveled hair, spirited sword eyebrows, and deep blue pupils without any impurities.
When his expression was calm, he looked stern and noble, exuding a luxurious air. After putting on a faint smile, he emitted a gentle and elegant temperament.
"Wow! Look quickly!"
"What a handsome young master, I wonder which family's young master he is!"
"..." The attention of the people around was drawn to Ye Qiu, and some even wanted to come over and strike up a conversation.
Ye Qiu walked to Ning Rongrong, who was standing still.
"Rongrong! How is it?"
"Hehe! Brother looks even more handsome!" Xiao Lan, who was eating candied haws, ran over, circling around Ye Qiu twice.
"Of course, this is specially customized for Brother Ye Qiu!" Ning Rongrong looked at her masterpiece, and there was a hint of blush on both sides of her cheeks.
Seeing the 'vulgar fans' around them eager to move, Ning Rongrong coldly snorted, picked up Ye Qiu's arm, and was about to leave.
"Xiao Lan, let's go!"
"Got it, Sister Rongrong!"
Xiao Lan quickly caught up, holding Ye Qiu's hand.
Seeing Ning Rongrong hugging him protectively and glancing around with her eyes, she had a taste of a possessive girlfriend.
After walking for a while, the three of them arrived at a restaurant. It was very large, with a lobby alone the size of two football fields.
Soon, Ning Rongrong led Ye Qiu into a luxurious private room, and the three of them sat on a leather sofa.
"Rongrong, why are we here?" Ye Qiu looked at her strangely. Didn't they agree to have lunch at the Prince's Mansion?
"Hmph! This is the most expensive restaurant in Tian Dou Imperial City. In three days, I will meet that smelly woman here and have a good conversation! I'll show you around first!"
Ning Rongrong glanced at him, and a fighting spirit emerged from her eyes!
"So that's it, then I'll mark it with divine might space." Ye Qiu smiled bitterly. It seemed that it would not be easy to get through this day!
"Hmph~ Brother, let's go!" Xiao Lan hadn't waited for Ye Qiu to finish marking, and her legs suddenly felt heavy. Ning Rongrong had already straddled his lap, looking at him resentfully.
"Ye Qiu, why were you smiling at them just now? Do you think my opponents are not enough?"
"I didn't! I was smiling at you." Ye Qiu hugged her slender waist, bringing her closer.
"Hmph! What's so funny about me!?" She glared at him without good humor.
"Hehe. Suddenly I found that sometimes you are even cuter than Xiao Lan!" Ye Qiu extended his index finger and gently touched her cute nose.
Ning Rongrong blushed and hadn't reacted yet. The nearby Xiao Lan, who was already unhappy, became even more dissatisfied.
"Ah! Brother is talking nonsense. Xiao Lan is the cutest! Ah~ Sister Rongrong! You two... are ignoring Xiao Lan!!"
With angry eyes, Xiao Lan looked at the two who were already entangled on the sofa, lying on the sofa gnawing at each other. Both of them could hang a pot of soy sauce on their pouted lips.
Hurry over and lift Ning Rongrong off Ye Qiu, who is pinned beneath her.
Ning Rongrong clutched Ye Qiu's collar, gradually sinking into it, and Ye Qiu also slowly embraced her jade back.
After a while, Ning Rongrong was already out of breath, weakly collapsing in Ye Qiu's arms, her forehead and neck flushed.
Ye Qiu was a bit anxious too, but with better lung capacity, he gently helped Ning Rongrong up, leaning her against his chest.
"Brother~ I'll tell Sister Yan Yan!" Resting, Xiao Lan's voice sounded with a hint of resentment.
"Cough, Xiao Lan! Don't be naughty!" Ye Qiu almost choked on saliva, wondering where this girl learned such things.
"Hmph! Tell her if you want, I don't care!" Ning Rongrong's face turned red, rolling her eyes indifferently.
"Ah! I don't care, Xiao Lan wants to tell too!"
Unable to threaten, Xiao Lan scratched her head in frustration and pounced into Ye Qiu's arms.
In the private room, they played around for a while before leaving.
Fortunately, Xiao Lan now had the ice attribute; otherwise, the rosy blush on their faces wouldn't easily fade.
"Alright, it's time to go to the Prince's Mansion!"
"Okay, okay! Xiao Lan is already hungry!"
Helplessly glancing at her, Ye Qiu pinched his slightly sore mouth, leading the now calm duo of girls towards the Prince's Mansion.
...
Prince's Mansion!
Before Ye Qiu could get too close, the people arranged by Xue Qinghe noticed him.
One person hurried to the Prince's Mansion, while another approached Ye Qiu and the others.
"Young Master Ye Qiu, His Highness ordered me to wait for you here. If I see you, I'll report back, and His Highness will prepare the feast in time. Allow me to lead the way for you."
"Sure, thank you!"
"I dare not. Young Master Ye Qiu, please!"
Following the servant, Ye Qiu couldn't believe that Xue Qinghe could arrange things to this extent.
Entering the Prince's Mansion, they were led straight to the prince's reception hall.
The surroundings weren't overly luxurious, with a moderate number of attendants. It seemed that Xue Qianren had put quite a bit of effort into his role as a prince.
"Brother Ye Qiu?"
Seeing Ye Qiu, Xue Qinghe was also momentarily stunned. His appearance had indeed improved a lot, but he quickly regained his composure.
"Brother Ye Qiu, you've finally come! Little sister and Rong Rong junior sister, please take your seats!"
"Wow!" Seeing a table full of her favorite dishes, Xiao Lan glanced at Ye Qiu with care. Since he just smiled at her, she immediately ignored him and rushed to the table.
"Hmph, this glutton." Leading Ye Qiu by the hand, Ning Rongrong sat down together, showing some etiquette when necessary.
"Haha." Xue Qinghe chuckled, seemingly unfazed by their antics.
"Xue Big Brother, excuse us for a moment!" Xiao Lan, having abandoned Ye Qiu, immediately began enjoying the feast.
"Brother Xue, I made you laugh!"
"It's okay. If Princess Xue Ke hadn't gone to the Moon Pavilion to study today, I would have wanted her to come over and get to know this little !"
Xue Qinghe also picked up the chopsticks, added some dishes for Xiao lan.
"Thank you, big brother! Brother, please eat quickly!" Xiao lan raised her head and thanked him with her mouth covered in grease. He also didn't forget to bring some food to Ye Qiu.
"Haha~" Xue Qinghe's hearty laughter spread far away, "brother Ye Qiu and Junior Sister Rongrong, let's start eating too!" "
Yes!" Ye Qiu nodded helplessly.
Ning Rongrong glared at Xiao Lan, mentally condemning this heartless girl.
Then she started to feed Ye Qiu, picking up some of his favorite food for him from time to time.
Xue Qinghe watched quietly, with surprise in his eyes.
He knew Ning Rongrong relatively well, but he never expected that the former little witch could actually take care of people.
But he is not a gossip, and he doesn't want to know too much about this kind of thing.
"I wonder where Brother Ye Qiu's cultivation has reached now?"
"I just got lucky enough to break through level 29!"
"Haha~ Brother Ye Qiu is so humble. There's no such thing as a lucky break. After all, he hasn't done much in the past six months. I've seen you, are you busy with something? If you have any trouble, you can always come to me!"
Faced with Xue Qinghe's inquiry about his whereabouts, Ye Qiu, a man with two eyes, definitely wouldn't say anything.
He expected that Xue Qinghe only knew his general whereabouts, so he just said that he stayed in the Sunset Forest all year round to spar with the spirit beasts.
Halfway through the meal, Xue Qinghe only knew that Ye Qiu had exceeded level 29.
Seeing that Ye Qiu had almost eaten, he stopped testing. He had not forgotten the purpose of this meal.
"Junior sister Rongrong, I will borrow your little lover for a while! Haha"
"Huh, just hurry up!" Faced with Xue Qinghe's teasing, Ning Rongrong was also a little shy.
"Sure, go ahead. I'll be quick and back in the afternoon to continue keeping you company!" Reminding her to take care of Xiao Lan, Ye Qiu followed Xue Qinghe's footsteps.
Just entering Xue Qinghe's study, Ye Qiu keenly sensed a change in his aura.
With hands behind his back, Xue Qinghe stood tall, displaying a more arrogant and domineering demeanor.
'Is he going to lay his cards on the table with me?'
Ye Qiu frowned, intending to use his Sharingan to survey the surroundings, but the activation of his spiritual power triggered a response from Xue Qinghe.
'It seems his martial soul has a high compatibility with mine!'
Sensing the awakened martial soul, Xue Qinghe turned to Ye Qiu.
"In fact, you don't need to be nervous. I have a gift for you!"
"A gift?" Ye Qiu looked at him strangely.
"Yes! The gift is right there!"
Casually, Xue Qinghe pointed to a book on the desk.
"Hmm?" Ye Qiu approached and, before picking it up, looked at Xue Qinghe strangely. The name of the book seemed a bit indecent?
But seeing Xue Qinghe's confident appearance, Ye Qiu couldn't help but flip through a few pages, his expression becoming even stranger.
"What kind of expression is that?" Xue Qinghe also frowned, as this technique was a treasure stored in the Martial Soul Temple!
"You're sure this is for me? Dragon Spirit and Tiger Might?"
Seeing Ye Qiu's incredulous look, Xue Qinghe immediately regained confidence.
"Of course."
However, when Ye Qiu heard the second half of the sentence, his face instantly turned red, and he seemed somewhat panicked.
"What!? How can it be this vulgar thing!?"
