He added, "The Za family has to rush back to reply, so I won't bother you any more."
"Shopkeeper, please send this father-in-law off." Chu Qing half-covered his lips and coughed a few more times.
Seeing that the shopkeeper was about to send the father-in-law out, Jiu'er ran out, "That's it..." Before she could finish her sentence, 'Chu Qing' smiled and stretched out her hand to carry her over.
The father-in-law, who had not yet completely walked out, was surprised in his heart, but remained silent.
Those who were watching the excitement outside had the same idea in their hearts. From the looks of it, the relationship between this girl and Boss Chu was very unusual.
However, I really didn’t realize that Boss Chu, who was so sick and crooked, still had some strength.
It's in the elegant teahouse diagonally opposite Yiyi Bookstore.
The second prince with a gloomy face raised his lips meaningfully, "No wonder our eldest brother's people are searching for this girl's identity everywhere. This girl is indeed special."
The fourth prince on the opposite side was worried about something else, "Second brother, the area around the bookstore has been very crowded recently. It's not a good place to stay for a long time. It would be bad if someone discovers or sees us here."
"What are you afraid of? Others can come, so why can't we?"
The fourth prince said, "You can't say that. Although we found out that the eldest brother and the others had people planted nearby, even if those people were found to have clues, they would not be able to find out the eldest brother and the others. Other people who were interested did not personally
We are the only ones coming here..."
The second prince's viper glance shifted to the fourth prince, who subconsciously closed his mouth.
The second prince said coldly and unpredictably, "How can we let Boss Chu see our sincerity if we don't come in person?"
"Second brother, what do you mean..."
The second prince laughed disdainfully, "Even if Chu Qing is not the Dark Emperor, he is definitely related to the Dark Emperor. The eldest and third emperor brothers are all staring at him. Now, the father has invited him to attend the palace banquet..."
The second prince's narrow eyes were half-squinted, "Even if he has nothing to do with the Dark Emperor, he is not as simple as a bookstore owner. If such a person wants to be used by me, how can we not show some attitude and sincerity first?"
?”
The fourth prince was excited, "Second brother, you are more thoughtful, but I am short-sighted. But..."
"If we hide our whereabouts like this, can Boss Chu find out that we have been here? Even if he finds out, can he guess that we are sending him some kind of signal?"
"This is also my test for him. If he doesn't have this ability, he is not qualified to be used by me."
The second prince's gaze fell faintly on the first bookstore diagonally opposite.
The backyard of a bookstore.
Duan Rong directly slipped Jiuerti into the house before putting him down.
Jiuer glared at him, "What are you doing?"
Duan Rong snorted speciously, turned around, sat down and began to remove the disguise cream from his face.
Jiu'er was unconvinced, "I'm going to the palace to attend the palace banquet. Why don't I ask my father-in-law in advance what interesting things are there in the palace?"
"Little girl, all the people in the palace cannibalize people without spitting out their bones. People like you..." He turned around to compare her height and said deliberately, "It's not enough to stuff someone's teeth."
Jiu'er was happy, her eyes sparkling, "Duan Rong, you are so childish. Are you trying to scare a three-year-old?"
"Are you a child?" Duan Rong asked.
"Of course I'm not."
"Then I'm not trying to scare the children." Duan Rong saw that her head was almost in the bronze mirror, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze falling on her little face that had indeed changed slightly.
"You really want to go to the palace banquet? Is it because of that Su Jingxing?"
Jiu'er nodded, "Yes. I can't just watch Su Jingxing become the consort of the tenth princess. What should I do if he becomes the consort of the tenth princess?"
Although she didn't think so, it would definitely be more reassuring to see it by herself.
"I won't tell you anymore. I haven't seen Su Jingxing for a few days. I'm going to find him right now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he ran out.
Duan Rong waved to her.
The smile and voice were very confusing, "Come here first."
Jiuer looked at him, "What are you doing?"
But people still walked over.
Duan Rongzheng said in an ordinary manner, "When it comes to Su Jingxing, look at how irritated you are. You don't even think about it. You are always like a headless fly. How can you be useful?"
Jiuer was surprised, "Are you actually going to help me with advice?"
"Dreaming." Duan Rong smiled and nodded at the tip of her nose, "I just feel bad for your sister Qianqian. You talk about her all the time and never mention her again. All I know about her is Su Jingxing all day long.
"
Jiuer: "..."
Come again.
She didn't understand, "You don't admit that you are Qian Qian, and why do you bring it up on purpose?"
She observed him carefully and said with a smile, "I see, don't you think it's more suitable for you to pretend to be a girl?"
Duan Rong waved his long arm, hugged her over and scratched her, "You really need to be dealt with."
"Hahahaha~" Jiu'er was tickled so much that she rolled around on his legs and knees, "Duan...Duan Rong, I was wrong, I was wrong! Spare your life~"
Only then did Duan Rong let her go, and Jiu'er's eyes were filled with laughter until tears welled up in her eyes.
Jiuer glared at the culprit who was hugging him, and said with a groan, "If it weren't for the fact that you are Qianqian's sister, I would be rude to you!"
Duan Rongrong was happy and narrowed his eyes, "How can you be so polite?"
Jiuer snorted arrogantly and ignored him.
"I'm really angry. It seems that someone doesn't want to read the new book I found about the Western Kingdom."
Jiuer immediately turned around and changed his face to a bright smile, "I want to see it!"
Of course, what Duan Rong was looking for was not an ordinary book. As soon as Jiuer got it, he was fascinated by it.
After a long while, Jiu'er said to himself, "The Holy Religion of the Western Regions... Why wasn't this introduced in the previous books?"
"The previous books were written long ago, and there was no Holy Religion of the Western Regions at that time."
I see.
Jiuer nodded.
Just like that, she saw the dinner time at dusk.
If she was curious about something that was not clearly written in the book, she would ask Duan Rong.
"Is the Holy Religion of the Western Regions really that mysterious and scary..." Jiu'er's eyes were full of interest.
Duan Rong glanced at her and said casually, "Perhaps, it is more mysterious and terrifying than the rumors."
"Ah, that must be fun!" Jiuer concluded.
Duan Rong's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't answer.
After finishing his meal, Jiuer continued to read, thus delaying his meeting with Su Jingxing.
The next day, Duan Rong gave her another book. Although it was not from the Western Regions, it recorded some anecdotes from a country called Dajing.
Jiu'er vaguely knew the country of Dajing, and the book was extremely interesting. Jiu'er was addicted to it again.
Duan Rong didn't go out either. Jiu'er saw that he was also reading other letters and other things.
When Jiuer saw someone who was interested but unclear, he would habitually ask him, "Is the Regent of Dajing really a cruel and beautiful woman..."
"If it's so scary and so beautiful, I should be very interested. Why haven't I seen it?" (To be continued)
