Chapter 62 You Want to Give It to Me

color. After a long pause, he said: "What you say is correct, but isn't this how you talk to your father""Originally, I also wanted to pay my respects properly when Father came in, but before I could...Volume 2: The Young Master's Plan Chapter 62: If You Want It, Give It To Me

Yun Qianyue knew that Rong Jing and she felt the same way; purple grass poison was a pain in their hearts. They hated it to the extreme!

"Third Young Master, please take a seat!" Rong Jing stood up, gently swept his sleeves, and pointed at the soft couch where the Third Young Master had previously sat.

The Third Young Master glanced at the couch before looking at Rong Jing again. He followed the suggestion and walked over to sit down.

Rong Jing extended a hand to take the pulse of the Third Young Master, but he dodged it. Looking at him, Rong Jing said softly: "Prince Jing, I know that you have the rule of not letting anyone come within three feet of you. You... can use another method to check my pulse. I am just an unclean body; I don't want to dirty your hands..."

Yun Qianyue turned her head away, wondering how much suffering he must have endured from a young age that made him belittle himself like this

"Third Young Master, there's no need for you to belittle yourself. Rules occasionally have exceptions!" Rong Jing stretched out his hand and pressed it onto the Third Young Master’s left wrist. The Third Young Master trembled but did not dodge further; however, a look of emotion and gratitude appeared on his face.

Yun Qianyue remained silent and stood beside Rong Jing while observing them both. She had already taken the Third Young Master's pulse when she held onto his wrist earlier. His purple grass poison was being suppressed by his energy circulation outside of his heart meridian. If an appropriate method could be found, he might still have a chance for salvation.

The three of them did not say anything else and the study fell into silence as if no one were there.

After some time, Rong Jing released the Third Young Master's left hand and pressed onto his right hand.

Yun Qianyue’s gaze moved to look at the Third Young Master's right hand. Shortly after, she raised her head to look at Rong Jing. His poetic features remained expressionless as usual; however, his pursed lips hinted that this matter was difficult and not promising. She tightened her own lips.

The Third Young Master suddenly lifted his eyes to look at Yun Qianyue. With just a glance, he lowered his head again without saying anything.

After some time, Rong Jing released his hand and gently said to Yun Qianyue: "Actually, there is one medicine that can control purple grass poison."

"What kind of medicine" Yun Qianyue immediately asked.

The Third Young Master also looked at Rong Jing.

"It’s the bile of a crimson cinnabar snake," said Rong Jing, looking at Yun Qianyue.

Yun Qianyue's mind stirred. Crimson cinnabar snakes were extremely rare; even obtaining one throughout all of the world was as difficult as climbing to the heavens. But coincidentally, Ye Qingran had just such a snake and cherished it dearly. However, wasn't killing the crimson cinnabar snake necessary in order to obtain its bile Would Ye Qingran give it away She looked at Rong Jing: "Is there no other way"

"If you came to me two months ago, perhaps there would have been another solution. But now that the purple grass poison has approached his heart meridian, there is no alternative other than using the bile of a crimson cinnabar snake!" Rong Jing shook his head at Yun Qianyue.

Yun Qianyue felt her head ache slightly as she covered it with one hand. She sighed: "Ye Qingran won’t give us that."

"Then, do you want to save the Third Young Master or not He may not give it to me, but perhaps he would give it to you," Rong Jing said with an odd tone.

Yun Qianyue paused in stroking her forehead and glared at Rong Jing. Was he jealous too It seemed like he was bathing himself in vinegar every day! She sighed helplessly: "I’m not as useful as you say."

"He treats you very generously," said Rong Jing, turning his face away.

Yun Qianyue placed both hands on her forehead and asked again without giving up hope: "Is there really no other way"

"There isn’t. I don’t want you to go find him either," said Rong Jing in an awkward tone.

Yun Qianyue took a deep breath, trying to boost her courage and said helplessly, "Then I'll go find him! If he asks me to agree to give him ten grain storage containers of food as you requested, should I also agree"

Rong Jing glanced at the Third Young Master and nodded. "As long as it's not a request for yourself, anything else can be agreed upon."

"Only you think I'm good! Who cares about others" Yun Qianyue blushed and retorted angrily before ignoring Rong Jing and turning to look at the Third Young Master. “You stay here first. I’ll go to Duke De’s Manor, retrieve the snake gallbladder of the cinnabar coral snake, and your body needs medicine urgently; it can't be delayed any further."

"Viscount Jing, Miss Yun Qianyue, my life is insignificant. It's not worth you both doing so much! Forget it!" The Third Young Master looked at them and shook his head at Yun Qianyue. He could naturally tell that Yun Qianyue was going to find Night Qingran with difficulty. How could he easily give something precious like his cinnabar coral snake

"Didn't I already tell you there are no distinctions of nobility and lowliness between people" Yun Qianyue frowned as she looked seriously at the Third Young Master. "Rong Jing, me, and you are all humans! Remember that it's not because you're bad, but because Duke Xiao is a piece of trash. One day, you will stand tall on your own, breaking free from the Duke’s Manor with your own abilities to carve out your own world. Make Duke Xiao go wherever he wants!"

The Third Young Master looked at Yun Qianyue in confusion.

"Do you understand You can't choose where you come from, but you can choose what path you walk on! If I save your life but can't help heal this heart of yours that is full of self-doubt, it would be futile."

Yun Qianyue reached out to tap the Third Young Master's head, but Rong Jing grabbed her hand. She paused and looked at Rong Jing before saying, "I'll go to Duke Xiao’s Manor right now; you prepare a prescription for his snake gallbladder medicine!"

"Alright!" Rong Jing released Yun Qianyue's hand.

The Third Young Master had already recovered his usual expression and lowered his head, not looking at them anymore.

Yun Qianyue didn't say anything more as she stepped out of the room. She lightly touched her toes to leap out of the Purple Bamboo Courtyard and flew over the Purple Bamboo Grove towards Duke De’s Manor. Although the cinnabar coral snake was precious, if it could save a life, Night Qingran would likely give it since he had a kind heart.

After Yun Qianyue left, there was a moment of silence in Rong Jing's study room.

Rong Jing slowly sat down and looked at the Third Young Master with calm eyes. He said gently, "In this vast world, many people suffer, but one person can't save everyone by herself. She is a very rational person who won’t easily go to save anyone. But once she decides to save someone, it must be someone who gives her enough reason to do so. Third Young Master, have you understood what I said"

The Third Young Master raised his head that had been lowered and looked at Rong Jing.

"She has three reasons for saving you! Would you like to hear them" Rong Jing asked the Third Young Master.

“If it’s convenient for Viscount Jing, I can listen,” The Third Young Master calmed his mind and returned to his usual expressionless demeanor.

"The first reason is that her mother and my father died from purple grass poison. Second, not long ago at the Meridian Gate, Princess Ye cast a spell on someone, and that person, who was called the King of Curses, also died due to purple grass poison," Rong Jing continued slowly as he noticed the surprise in the Third Young Master’s expression. "Thirdly, and most importantly, she cherishes everyone whom she respects. She respects you for managing to avoid her discovery that Jiaojiao from Wanshouchun Pavilion was actually a man, even after she saved you and you slipped away under her nose again. In her view, this is your skill! Therefore, she has reasons to save you."

The Third Young Master remained silent.

"Would you like to hear the reason why I’m saving you" Rong Jing asked.

“I believe it's unnecessary for me to listen to Viscount Jing’s reasons. As long as Miss Yun Qianyue wants something done, you will help her,” The Third Young Master looked at Rong Jing and said.

"Third Young Master really has great insight!" Rong Jing suddenly smiled and reached out to pour a cup of tea from the teapot, which he handed to the Third Young Master. He shook his head, and Rong Jing withdrew his hand, looking at the teapot and cup in his hands. "My teapot only matches one cup! My cup also only fits my teapot. One extra would be too crowded."

The Third Young Master’s gaze fell on Rong Jing's teapot and cup but didn’t say anything.

"Third Young Master, I can save you and destroy you as well! You must understand this point clearly," Rong Jing put down the teapot and cup with a light voice. "In my heart, nothing is more important than Yun Qianyue of the Yun Family Manor. Regardless of how many people she acknowledges in her eyes, I have to be the only one in her heart. Therefore, no matter who it may be, as long as there’s any ulterior motive, I can’t tolerate it."

The Third Young Master's eyes suddenly narrowed.

"Therefore, if she has entered your heart, you’d better get rid of her completely from this moment on. If she hasn't entered your heart, that would be best," Rong Jing looked into the Third Young Master’s eyes, his clear and spring-like gaze meeting his light purple eyes. He calmly said: "The Duke Xiao Manor has treated you unfairly; I think it's better to not have anything to do with the Duke Xiao Manor at all. What do you think"

The Third Young Master's pale purple eyes turned deep purple, and without responding, he suddenly smiled faintly. "Prince Regent Jing, do you want to hear how I came to know Miss Shallow Moon"

"How I got to know her is crystal clear! The Third Young Master doesn't need to repeat it for me. From childhood to the present, everything about her is clear as day to me. If you count it that way, I've watched her grow up; of course, she's also watched me grow up." Rong Jing reached out and handed two black notebooks on a nearby desk over to the Third Young Master. "You can take a look at this!"

The Third Young Master glanced at Rong Jing before reaching out to accept them and opening the first book. He saw clear, neat handwriting recording every little detail of Yun Shallow Moon from childhood to the present. It was evident that the owner of these black books was Rong Jing. The first page began with their first meeting; he had been pushed into the water by her, and while under the water, he had deliberately waited for her to rescue him. When she pulled him up, she actually wanted to kiss him, but he kissed her instead. This happened ten years ago. He turned the pages, looking at the second, third page, each page containing an event with a date, along with brief comments made by the recorder after the event. He flipped to the last page; today's date was yesterday.

After finishing one book, he looked over at Rong Jing. Rong Jing was slowly sipping tea and looking out the window, not bothering to look at him. Outside the window was a purple bamboo forest with all parts of the bamboo in purple, vibrant and alive despite their age. He withdrew his gaze and continued flipping through the second black book.

The writing in the second black book was like dancing dragons and phoenixes—extremely rare wild cursive script. A woman could only be admired for being able to write such elegant handwriting. The first page, ten years ago, read: "Today I saw the little prince of the Rong王府 that my mother mentioned. My mother said my Yueyue is worth marrying the best man in the world; the little prince of the Rong王府 isn't too bad either. So I've been staring at that jade-like boy all day. That little boy looks really good, it's not hard to imagine how attractive he'll be when he grows up. I don’t want to compete with a bunch of women for his attention; let’s leave him alone. Such men are too precious to be within reach."

The Third Young Master looked up at Rong Jing as he read this, seeing that the man was lost in thought and smiling slightly. He withdrew his gaze and continued reading. The next page read: "A pretentious hypocrite with a black heart; they probably talk about people like him. How hateful! I was just performing CPR on him. What's with liking him enough to want to kiss him Nonsense! I swear, I’ll stay as far away from this scoundrel as possible in the future."

Following this were events, dates, and comments one after another. The dates gradually progressed forward ten years ago; although their tones differed, the two of them recorded matching events without having to discuss it beforehand. Besides playful spats between young lovers, there were also some secrets unknown to others.

The final page of this black book was dated two months ago—on the day when the Fire Incident at View Spring Tower occurred. The last line read: "I'm willing to trade fifteen years of memories for a chance with Rong Jing and me! Mother, what do you think"

The Third Young Master's gaze fixed on that final line without moving.

Rong Jing withdrew his gaze from the window and looked at those words; his eyes suddenly softened. He always thought he was the only one suffering for ten years of yearning, but he didn't know someone else had been recording everything about him after returning to the family home as well—a book dedicated solely to him.

"No one has ever seen these two books before, right Prince Regent Jing showed them to me; is there a fear that I might leak their contents" The Third Young Master suddenly closed the book and looked up at Rong Jing.

"Would you reveal it" asked Rong Jing with a raised eyebrow.

"Perhaps!" replied the Third Young Master.

"All secrets will eventually be exposed to everyone. There's no such thing as a permanent secret," said Rong Jing, smiling at him gently. "And I've already told you, if I can help you, I can also destroy you. Since I showed you, there's nothing to fear from your leaking them."

"Miss Shallow Moon said that if I survive, she will grant me a chance for a brilliant future and the opportunity to realize my ambitions. I want to know what Prince Regent Jing has to offer" The Third Young Master asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Apart from her, there's much I can give you; it all depends on whether your heart is big enough! Or if you have the capacity to swallow it!" said Rong Jing suddenly smiling. "The world is vast, and mountains and rivers are magnificent. If your heart remains confined within the Xianqing Prince’s Manor, even if I offer you the sky, what use would that be"

The Third Young Master didn't speak and fell silent.

Rong Jing remained quiet as well, calmly observing the Third Young Master.

After a while, the Third Young Master neatly closed the books in his hands and handed them back to Rong Jing. Rong Jing took them from him, looked at her seriously, and said: "Miss Shallow Moon is hard for anyone not to care about!"

Rong Jing narrowed his eyes as he stared at the Third Young Master.

The Third Young Master suddenly smiled. "Her heart has always been with you, yet you constantly guard against her; do you lack confidence Or are you worried that she'll be too many people to fit in before she ends up without a place for herself"

Rong Jing remained silent as the clear blue of his eyes gradually darkened.

"For the first twenty years, I suffered all kinds of hardships; there's nothing this world can offer me that I cannot pick up. Prince Regent Jing is right; if Xianqing Manor doesn't want me either..." The Third Young Master looked at Rong Jing with a smile blooming on his lips—truly captivating and beautiful. If he were dressed in women’s attire, no one would ever think the person before them was male. His voice was faint but full of life. "To have Prince Regent Jing guarding me every day makes me look forward to the future."

Rong Jing looked at the Third Young Master; his eyes suddenly lightened and he raised an eyebrow, saying: "I too am looking forward to our future!"

The Third Young Master raised an eyebrow but did not speak. Both of them understood each other without words.

With the time it took to burn a stick of incense, Yun Qianyue arrived at Duke De's residence. She jumped over the high walls of Duke De’s mansion and evaded the covert guards' hidden posts, heading towards Moxuan Villa where Ye Qingran resided. It didn’t take long before she reached Moxuan Villa. In front of Moxuan Villa was an open space with various weapons placed there, seemingly a small arena. Behind it was a clear lake. Moxuan Villa was built by the lakeside. Within a radius of dozens of paces, there were no objects to hide or stand on. She thought it was indeed Ye Qingran’s style. She could only use her internal energy to fly and land lightly on the roof. There was no dark corner on the roof where she could hide, so she had to move again without stopping, jumping down from the roof and hanging upside down on the eaves of the building.

She just hid herself when a hoarse voice shouted angrily inside, "You little brat! Do you want to drive me to death I’ve told you countless times not to provoke that Jing boy from Prince Rong’s mansion. But you wouldn’t listen. You returned to the capital without immediately going to court and apologizing to your imperial uncle after being relieved of duty at Western Mountain's headquarters, but instead provoked the Jing kid. He even blocked your meridians. Now is a crucial time; you can't even move. What do you say How should we proceed"

Yun Qianyue thought Duke De was still as vigorous and full of vigor despite his age!

No sound came from Ye Qingran inside the room, showing that he couldn’t speak or move due to blocked meridians.

"Even if everyone knows it’s the Jing kid who burned those rations, what difference does it make The emperor can only be angry and not act because the national treasury is empty, and food supplies are tight. He cannot increase taxes on common people. The emperor relies on Prince Rong’s mansion; hence, the Jing boy seized this point to dare to defy the emperor in such a way." Old Duke De raged again: "After all these years of planning, how could the emperor easily abandon his long-term schemes and let Cloud Mansion, Prince Rong's mansion, and the other four princely mansions continue their prosperity That would mean all past efforts were wasted! So, don't you understand yet The emperor has been transferring you to military headquarters as soon as you returned to the capital; that’s a precaution for this day. He believes you can guard the military headquarters and prevent Jing from acting there. Even if he does act, he shouldn’t succeed! But what have you done these past two days"

Yun Qianyue blinked her eyes as she recalled how Ye Qingran had been training all army officers at headquarters day and night for the past couple of days.

"Don't think I don’t know what's on your mind! You like that little miss from Cloud Mansion, right I told you to give up on it long ago. The emperor won’t allow her to marry into Prince Rong’s mansion or our Duke De’s mansion. Now with the addition of Seventh Young Prince, this Holy Capital is in a mess! In my view, she's a red-haired disaster! It’s only a matter of time before chaos erupts due to her!" Old Duke De raged again.

Yun Qianyue thought you really think highly of me!

"Don’t tell me you don't like it! The Jing kid and that little miss from Cloud Mansion are determined to defy the emperor! Don’t forget your surname! You’re not Surname Ren, nor is it Yun; it’s Night. Your bloodline flows with the blood of the Night ancestors. No matter how many years later, whether a hundred or thousands, the imperial family and Duke De’s mansion will still be like blood relatives." Old Duke De suddenly used his cane to violently strike the ground twice, producing tinkling sounds. He raged: "Did you hear that!"

Yun Qianyue felt her heart sink; indeed! Ye Qingran was a Night man and had the blood of the Night ancestors flowing in him. He would inherit Duke De’s mansion someday. The Duke De’s mansion has always been loyal to the Night dynasty. If she and Rong Jing opposed the old emperor, wouldn’t they eventually stand on opposite sides against each other She relaxed her grip on the eaves and suddenly wanted to see Ye Qingran's expression at that moment. Thinking was acting; she waved a hand, causing the window to silently open as she floated into the room and landed softly inside with the window closing quietly behind her.

She landed right behind Old Duke De. At this moment, he stood before the bed holding his cane while Ye Qingran lay rigidly on the bed. As soon as she entered, Ye Qingran noticed her; she saw his eyes suddenly turn, a flicker of surprise in them quickly fading away, followed by him closing his eyes with an indifferent expression.

"You ungrateful brat! I’ll beat you to death!" Old Duke De was enraged that despite talking for so long, Ye Qingran had only shown indifference and now closed his eyes unwillingly to listen. He angrily raised his cane to strike him.

Seeing the cane about to land, Yun Qianyue wanted to intervene but thought it unwise; Old Duke De would then know she was here at Duke De’s mansion. Just as she was hesitating, Old Duke De suddenly stopped and shouted fiercely at Ye Qingran: "I think Jing blocked your meridians well! You will reflect on yourself for three days in bed!"

With that, he left the room holding his cane, walking towards the door. After taking a few steps, he seemed to realize something was wrong and turned abruptly, only to find no one behind him; the room showed no signs of disturbance. He grunted and stepped out of the room, instructing someone by the door: "You are not allowed to come in and talk to him. Let him reflect properly! Understood"

"Yes, Your Excellency!" Ye Qingran's young attendant immediately responded.

Old Duke De left Moxuan Villa angrily, his cane’s tapping sound still audible from afar.

Yun Qianyue came out from behind a screen and thought that Old Duke De, despite his age, was still so vigilant and sensitive. She glanced outside the door before walking to the bedside to look at Ye Qingran. He had obviously been attended to; he was clean-shaven and dressed in fresh clothes. However, his face looked tired and haggard, with faint bloodshot eyes—clear signs of lack of sleep.

At this moment, Ye Qingran opened his eyes and looked at Yun Qianyue. He tried to speak but couldn’t make a sound; his expression flashed with annoyance.

Yun Qianyue stepped forward and used her hand to unblock his voice point, whispering softly: "I will only release your voice point."

"Little miss, how did you come here" Ye Qingran immediately asked as soon as he regained the ability to speak.

"Young Master, who were you speaking with" The attendant’s surprised voice came from outside. After saying this, he pushed open the door and rushed in; upon seeing Yun Qianyue standing before the bed, he was startled: "Miss Qianyue"

Yun Qianyue did not intervene but nodded at the attendant who had always been by Ye Qingran’s side.

"Guard outside and don’t let anyone in," Ye Qingran instructed the attendant.

"Yes!" The book servant put away his astonishment, glanced at Yun Qianyue once, and then retreated out of the room, shutting the door behind him very efficiently.

"Little miss, I asked you why you came here," Ye Qingran looked at Yun Qianyue. Seeing her hesitate, he raised an eyebrow, "Do you have something to ask me"

Yun Qianyue looked at Ye Qingran and silently nodded.

"What is it" Ye Qingran asked.

"I want your Crimson Lacquer Viper!" Yun Qianyue said.

Ye Qingran suddenly narrowed his eyes, "Little miss, what do you need my Crimson Lacquer Viper for" As he spoke, he continued to ask, "Who was poisoned by the Purple Grass Poison Do you need the viper's gallbladder to save them"

Yun Qianyue was momentarily taken aback; she hadn't expected Ye Qingran to hit the nail on the head. It looked like he knew that the Crimson Lacquer Viper's gall could neutralize Purple Grass Poison. She saw him staring at her intently and nodded in acknowledgment, saying, "Yes, I want to use it to save someone!"

"Who are you trying to save" Ye Qingran asked again.

"A person who is important to me," Yun Qianyue said. She felt that it was better not to mention the Third Young Master's matter.

“Is it for Rong Jing’s use” Ye Qingran raised his eyebrows, and suddenly his expression became hard to read.

"No!" Yun Qianyue shook her head.

"Then is it the Seventh Prince who needs it" Ye Qingran asked again.

"Not him either," Yun Qianyue shook her head once more.

“Little miss, I am truly at a loss. Other than these two people, whom else is important to you” Ye Qingran looked at Yun Qianyue and continued, “You know how much the Crimson Lacquer Viper means to me. Taking its gallbladder would mean killing it. And yet, there must be someone who’s important enough for you to seek it out from me.”

Yun Qianyue fell silent. "Little miss, where do I stand in your heart" Ye Qingran asked again.

Yun Qianyue remained silent. Where did he actually stand in her heart Before, she didn't allow any man from the Night family except for Nigth Tianyi to occupy a place in her heart, not even those she admired like Ye Qingran. But during these two months of amnesia, many things had changed. She once regarded him as a friend but now that she was awake and knew he liked her, it made her feel complicated. "Little miss, do I hold no place in your heart" Ye Qingran's face darkened.

"No!" Yun Qianyue immediately shook her head. Perhaps before, but not now.

“That’s good,” Ye Qingran suddenly gave a bitter smile and closed his eyes without looking at her any longer, saying: "It is in my sleeve, take it."

Yun Qianyue was taken aback. He just handed it to her like that

"As long as you want it, I will give it to you! No matter who you are trying to save," Ye Qingran said.

Yun Qianyue's expression moved instantly. Ye Qingran was truly good to her, though his kindness differed from Rong Jing’s and often left her touched. It was just a pity that he was surnamed Night, so she had kept him at arm's length since childhood if he weren't named Night. During the seven years of his travels outside, there were occasional places where they coincidentally met, but she always avoided them.

“I hear my grandfather’s footsteps returning; take it and leave quickly!” Ye Qingran urged her.

Yun Qianyue was startled. Indeed, it was the elderly Duke of De who had come back again with swift steps that instantly arrived at the courtyard. She immediately reached into Ye Qingran's sleeve, and the seemingly sleeping Crimson Lacquer Viper was grasped up. Glancing at him once more, she tiptoed lightly to open the window silently. With a graceful move, she left the room.

At that moment, through the window rushed in a red figure—precisely Ye Qian. The two narrowly missed each other as Yun Qianyue passed by. After landing back inside the room, Ye Qian turned sharply around and looked towards where Yun Qianyue had left from. However, Yun Qianyue’s footsteps did not pause; in an instant, she had already left the residence of Moxuan Hall, quickly dodging past the Invisibles to leave Duke De's Manor.

The valet stopped the old Duke outside at the same time, "Old Duke, you..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the old Duke of Deqin waved his hand and shouted, "Get out of my way!", then the door was suddenly pushed open with a bang. The old Duke of Deqin strode in. As soon as he entered, he saw Ye Qian standing beside Ye Qingran's bed and was stunned for a moment, asking, "Princess Ye"

"Old Duke of Deqin, why did you use such force You frightened me!" Ye Qian glanced at the old Duke of Deqin and complained, "You're entering your grandson's room. Is it necessary to be so forceful"

"You..." The old Duke of Deqin looked at Ye Qian and composed himself, asking, "Princess Ye, why are you here"

"To see him!" replied Ye Qian.

"Why didn't the guards notice your arrival" asked the old Duke of Deqin.

"Of course I evaded them!" Ye Qian rolled her eyes at the old Duke of Deqin and sat down on Ye Qingran's bed, pushing his body that was pretending to sleep with closed eyes. She said, "Move a bit in, I ran around and am exhausted. I need to rest too."

When she saw that Ye Qingran didn't move, she boldly pushed him into the inner part of the bed right in front of the old Duke of Deqin, then lay down herself, pulling over his quilt to cover her body as well before closing her eyes.

The old Duke of Deqin looked at the two people lying on the bed and suddenly turned around, coughing lightly, "Princess Ye, you haven't officially engaged with my son. This isn’t proper! The Deqin王府 has prepared a guest room for you. You should..."

"No way! I can't sleep in an unfamiliar place by myself. Someone needs to stay with me. Rest assured, I won’t do anything to Ye Qingran!" After finishing her sentence, Ye Qian yawned and waved the old Duke of Deqin away, "If there's nothing else, you should leave now! I need to sleep. You staying here will keep me awake."

The old Duke of Deqin sighed helplessly; he could not go over and pull Ye Qian up from the bed, so he left.

Seeing the old Duke of Deqin leave, the valet immediately closed the door, puzzled about how Miss Qianyue was just in the room but suddenly turned into Princess Ye.

Ye Qian opened her eyes and asked Ye Qingran, "Why did Yun Qianyue come to your place"

"Get lost quickly! Don't stay on my bed!" Ye Qingran said in a bad mood without opening his eyes, trying to drive the person away.

"Do you think I want to be here Even with my acupoints sealed by Rong Jiedian, I can still act so rudely!" Standing up and sitting up straight, Ye Qian reached out her hand to search in Ye Qingran's sleeve. Finding it empty, she asked, "Where is the red lipstick snake"

Ye Qingran remained silent.

"I know. I smelled a familiar scent from Yun Qianyue just now, which belongs to the red lipstick snake. She took it away, right" Ye Qian stared at Ye Qingran; when he still didn't speak, she immediately jumped out of bed, her feet lightly touching the ground as she flew out of the room and followed Yun Qianyue's direction.

Ye Qingran opened his eyes slightly, glancing at the open window. His long eyelashes cast a shadow on his face.

Isn't Ye Qingran really great Right O（∩_∩）O~

Poor red lipstick snake! I'm so unwilling for it to die! But reality is cruel... (⊙_⊙)
