Chapter 79 Qian Renxue: Who is Jiang Nian?!
"Huh?" Ye Lingling rubbed her eyes, somewhat unable to believe what her mother was saying.
The Holy Son? The Holy Son even prepared food for them?
The girl got up, put on her shoes, and walked out of the tent. Her pupils flickered slightly when she smelled the fragrant porridge in front of her.
"So...so fragrant..." Ye Lingling quickly ran over and stood beside Jiang Nian: "Holy Son brother, how come your cooking is so good?"
"I've made it a lot, so I've gotten good at it."
"Lingling, go wash your face, dinner will be served soon."
"Okay!"
The little girl happily walked towards where Ye Wanqing was standing, her ponytail swinging behind her.
A short while later, the three of them, having finished breakfast, boarded a carriage to head to the town at the foot of the mountain.
Half an hour later, they arrived.
Uncle Fu went to find an inn, while Jiang Nian discussed the matter of the soul ring with Ye Wanqing.
The town wasn't too far from the Star Dou Great Forest, but finding a suitable spirit ring would take an uncertain amount of time.
"Your Highness, could you have Uncle Fu look after Lingling for now?"
"The two of us... it would be a little more convenient if the two of us went."
Jiang Nian glanced at her a few times and nodded.
He hadn't expected Madam Ye to trust him so much.
She had taken excellent care of Ye Lingling, just afraid she'd be kidnapped by criminals. Otherwise , she wouldn't feel comfortable bringing her daughter along when she went out to hunt for spirit rings, even in the Heavenly Dou Imperial Capital.
Of course, Jiang Nian might be overthinking it.
"It's fine. If Lingling wants to go too, I can look after her."
"Um... there's no need for Your Highness to trouble yourself with that..." Ye Wanqing gently brushed a strand of hair behind her ear; her skin was flawless, fair and rosy.
At her age, she was at the peak of her womanly charm.
Given that childbirth is generally earlier in this world…
Jiang Nian unconsciously compared her to Bibi Dong.
Hmm, both are young married women.
"Phew~ Finally out of the mountains…"
Qian Renxue looked at the town below, a smile spreading across her face.
She rubbed her rumbling stomach and quickened her pace considerably.
Now, she was sure she could catch up with Jiang Nian!
She couldn't believe this guy could walk so fast!
Ten minutes later.
Qian Renxue looked at the breakfast stalls around her, swallowed hard, and decided to fill her stomach first.
Finding that guy wouldn't be so easy.
Time to eat!
After the little golden retriever had eaten and drunk its fill, she began to use her spiritual power to investigate.
"If Xiao Jiang is going to stay in this town, he'll probably stay at an inn, right?"
"Hehe~ I'm so clever!"
Qian Renxue secretly felt proud and quickened her pace to find a nearby inn.
Meanwhile, Jiang Nian, who was still discussing matters with Ye Wanqing, seemed to sense a familiar fluctuation of soul power…
Hmm?
How strange.
"We've already left Spirit City, how could we possibly run into acquaintances?"
"Your Highness, what's wrong?"
"Nothing... just thinking about a friend." Jiang Nian shook his head and smiled, thinking he was overthinking it.
Yes, after leaving, he felt a pang of nostalgia for everything about Spirit Hall.
A wanderer longs for his hometown...
Tap tap tap~
A series of hurried footsteps came from outside. Jiang Nian's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously looked over.
"Hoo... hoo... Little Jiang!"
"Do you know how long I've been chasing you?!"
"You're going to..." Qian Renxue's inner surprise and joy were instantly suppressed, replaced by a strange jealousy: "Who is she?!"
Their eyes met, and Jiang Nian was both surprised and delighted, and a little bit... ugh! He really needed to change that.
He hadn't expected the little golden retriever to catch up; it was quite unexpected...
"Come sit down first, I'll explain."
Jiang Nian stood up and extended his hand. Qian Renxue glared at him with her round golden eyes, snorted twice, and reluctantly walked over, ignoring his actions.
She plopped down next to him, glaring angrily at the mature and elegant woman opposite her, seemingly asserting her dominance.
At this moment, she was already pondering their relationship.
Mature, charming, gentle, and intellectual...
Could it be that Jiang Nian liked this kind of woman?!
"Hey, don't poke me! I won't let you touch me!" Qian Renxue slapped his hand away, still sulking.
Ye Wanqing couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, "Your Highness...is she your...little girlfriend?"
Before Jiang Nian could explain, the little blondie's head flushed red and steam seemed to rise instantly.
Oh no!
Was he about to get too hot?!
He was already a bit dim-witted; this couldn't go on...
"Wh...what? The two of us..." Qian Renxue stammered, lowering her head and glancing at Jiang Nian several times.
Seeing his calm expression, she felt a mix of shyness and disappointment.
What was this guy thinking?
"Don't misunderstand, we're friends...well, barely good friends...childhood sweethearts..."
Ye Wanqing looked at Jiang Nian in confusion. Had he been electrocuted?
His words were faking it...
"Xiaoxue, let me introduce you. This is the current head of the Ye family in Tiandou City. I accidentally saved this mother and daughter on the road..."
"Hmm? There's a daughter too?"
Qian Renxue stared into his eyes, her gaze clearly unfriendly.
Jiang Nian nodded, but before he could continue, Ye Lingling came down from the second floor of the inn.
"Holy Son Brother... oh? There's an older sister too?"
Qian Renxue turned around and looked at the aloof little beauty, taking a second look.
Holy Son Brother... how intimate!
This pretty girl seems to rival Hu Liena.
"Little sister, what's your name? I'm Jiang Nian's... childhood sweetheart." Qian Renxue hesitated before giving this address.
"My name is Ye Lingling..."
The little girl looked at the assertive older sister in front of her, feeling a little nervous.
She then looked to her mother and Jiang Nian for help.
"Ye Lingling... what a nice name! From now on, call me Sister Xiaoxue, and I'll call you Lingling Little Sister, okay?"
"Okay..."
Qian Renxue's eyes curved into a smile, and she reached out to ruffle the girl's hair.
Hmph~
Taking advantage.
No one can be older than her!
Jiang Nian pretended not to see anything and continued drinking his tea.
After Qian Renxue learned the truth, although she was a little embarrassed, she still muttered a few words under her breath, then reverted to being the gluttonous girl who only knew how to eat.
However, she was slightly shocked to learn that Jiang Nian had actually subdued the Nine Heart Begonia clan.
She knew about the strongest healing martial soul on the continent.
If he could join the Spirit Hall, there might be another healing-type Title Douluo in the future.
After a few moments of amazement, Qian Renxue looked at Jiang Nian's easygoing face and couldn't help but mutter a few words under her breath.
"Hmph~ If it were me, I could do it too!"
