Chapter Ninety-Seven: I'll Give You a Book of Illustrat
ighteous! I'm so touched!" Su Qingying's eyes welled up with tears as she expressed her deep emotion.“You bunch of scoundrels, do you think you can run amok like this! Fine, I'll fulfill your wishes!...“Well, of course, I've seen more than just that. I can even draw it! Like the 72 Techniques of the Spring Palace, those moves are amazing, definitely poses you’ve never seen before.” Totally oblivious to the danger approaching, Su Qingying wore a proud expression on her face, as if being able to draw erotic art was an extraordinary feat.
Just as Su Qingying uttered those words, Jun Liye's face became even more unsightly. The aura around him rapidly sank, centered on him like a whirlpool.
She admitted it so readily!
After several deep breaths to suppress her anger, Jun Liye coldly sneered: “I didn't expect you to have this kind of talent!”
"You still haven't said it, my artistic talent is pretty good. By the way, would you like me to draw a book for you I guarantee it will be incredibly lifelike and teach you a few new poses in your lifetime." With a delicate chin raised, Su Qingying spoke openly.
"Very well, this king shall be watching!" A glint flashed in Jun Liye's deep crimson eyes, and a chilling smile curled his lips.
That's great, learning a few more poses, he will certainly not disappoint her kind intentions.
She never would have imagined that her momentary rudeness back then would lead to such a terrible fate. Every night, she was devoured by some beast, completely drained until she passed out. Thinking about it now made her intestines churn with regret, and the sorrow in her heart was like a river flowing against the current!
“Lin Ji Bakery! That’s great, the luck is pretty good, no one is queuing up, let's go quickly!” Passing by a bakery, Su Qingying's eyes lit up, her gaze as bright as the moonlight, she smiled and said, “Boss, I want two servings of Rong Hua Cake and two servings of Plum Blossom Steamed Buns.”
On hearing this, the proprietress raised her head and was taken aback for a moment, a flicker of astonishment crossing her face.
But seeing the woman before her, dressed in white, her eyes like stars, her skin like jade, her eyebrows and eyes clear and bright, her figure slender like a full moon, with a smile that outshone all colors, even the moon itself seemed to pale in comparison.
And the man following closely behind her was equally handsome. His features were delicate and exquisite, his face sculpted like a knife, his eyes deep and captivating, as if nothing could penetrate them.
His simple white clothes were worn with an extremely ostentatious and arrogant air, with the elegance of jade and peerless charm.
He is handsome and she is beautiful, truly a perfect match!
"Alright, miss, just a moment." It took quite some time for the proprietress to come back to her senses.
"These kinds of snacks are plentiful in the palace. How could you possibly like them" Jun Liye walked beside her, gazing at her expectant face, his eyes flickering slightly.
"Although there are pastries in the palace, they taste sweeter here and you can never get tired of them." Ever since she sneaked out to try one last time, she's been absolutely smitten with it. Not only her, but also that little Xi'er keeps pestering her about it.
"Miss, your Hibiscus Cake and Plum Blossom Steamed Buns are ready." The proprietress quickly packed them up for her. Su Qingying smiled sweetly and reached out to take them, but she didn't intend to pay herself. She pointed at Jun Liye beside her and chuckled, "Thank you, ma'am. He'll be paying, so you can collect from him."
As she spoke, she had already taken the pastries and walked out of the shop. The proprietress could only look at Jun Liye and say, "Sir, that'll be five ounces of silver."
"There's no need to look any further." With a flick of his wrist, Jun Liye tossed a silver coin and then set off in pursuit of Su Qingying.
"Thank you, sir. You are truly fortunate to have married such a beautiful wife. Sir, you must love your wife very much." As soon as he reached the threshold, he heard the shop owner's friendly voice. Jun Liye abruptly stopped his steps, a hint of confusion in his eyes, "How do you know"
The proprietress smiled, "From the moment he walked in, the young master's eyes never left that girl. Look at his gaze, so tender, full of her. You can't fake that."
Upon hearing this, Jun Liye was slightly stunned, and the hazy feeling in her heart instantly cleared.
He couldn't help but curl his lip. It seemed he had unknowingly cared for her so much. It looked like he was completely smitten with that woman.
Su Qingying had her eyes on something again, waiting for Jun Liye to come over and pay. After waiting for a long time, she saw him standing there foolishly staring at her. Su Qingying curled her lips, "Jun Liye, what are you doing standing there Come over and pay, I still want this!"
This time, Jun Liye broke his usual pattern and didn't get angry. His blood-red phoenix eyes were tinged with a faint smile as he walked towards her, his gaze fixed solely on her like she was the only scenery in the world.
In his eyes, Su Qingying was the epitome of the city's splendor, nothing else could compare.
Two flowers bloom, each representing a branch.
Rong Yue, clad in a sapphire brocade, walked across the bridge. Beside him was a breathtakingly beautiful woman. Her refined features and ethereal aura drew countless admiring glances even in their simple attire.
"Will Lan Bo surely make a move soon" A soft voice flowed from his lips. Rong Yue's face was as warm and smooth as jade, smiling gently, but the glimmer in his eyes that flashed unintentionally was impossible to ignore.
"Well, senior brother, perhaps we should be on guard" Si Tu Wan'er nodded slightly. A charming smile played on her lips, as beautiful and delicate as a hibiscus flower. She seemed to be in an extremely good mood.
"Just wait and see, Xuen Yuan Luo Chen is not a paper tiger. It's not that easy to scheme against him. I'm afraid Xuen Yuan Luo Chen has already dug a trap waiting for him to jump in." Rong Yue shook her head, her spring-like eyebrows and eyes flashing with a mocking smile.
Si Tu Wan'er just smiled faintly, and didn't speak any further. Her beautiful eyes slightly lifted, catching sight of Su Qingying and Jun Liye in the crowd. She then spoke to her senior brother, "Hey, Senior Brother, aren't those Bei Ling's Regent King and Dong Yue's Fifth Princess How come they're together Should we go say hello"
"Fine, we won't go and disturb them." Gazing at their backs, Rong Yue's warm and introspective eyes flickered, hidden and enigmatic.
"Brother, don't you think the Eastern Yue Five Princess looks familiar" Si Tu Wan'er hesitated for a moment before speaking.
Actually, from the first time they met, she felt that Su Qingying gave her a vaguely familiar feeling, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her before.
"Is that so" At those words, Rong Yue's gaze fell on Su Qingying. Her phoenix eyes glittered with spirit, piercing and captivating, like someone deep within his heart.
After looking at Su Qingying for a long time, Rong Yue's pupils suddenly contracted, her eyes flashing with surprise.
Yun Ling!
He stared incredulously at Su Qingying, his heart pounding with a nervous jolt. Those eyes, that expression... they were exactly the same as the woman in his painting!
He drew her breathtaking beauty almost every day. How could he ever forget her bearing They weren't just similar, they were identical!
"Senior brother What's wrong with you" Seeing Rong Yue's unusual expression, Si Tu Wan'er's face showed a hint of worry.
Withdrawing her gaze from Su Qingying, Rong Yue once again restored his gentle and elegant demeanor. His face remained impassive, but his heartbeat was beating excitedly, as if it wanted to burst out of his chest!
Recalling the unexpected appearance of Luoyue Palace within the Imperial City, Rong Yue's mind conjured a daring hypothesis.
Perhaps Su Qingying and Yun Ling have some kind of unknown relationship!e."What did you say What's wrong with Xi'er" Su Qingying's heart sank suddenly, her uneasiness growing stronger. She quickly rushed out of the room and just happened to see Mo Xuan carrying Xi'er over...
