"Luo Chuan..."
"I've already prepared the water."
Dai Yun'er blinked her eyes, speaking calmly as if it were nothing.
"Hmm?"
"Of course, you told me in advance that you were coming, so I naturally prepared the tea ahead of time."
Tang Luo Chuan responded with a smile, not paying too much attention to it. It was just a small gesture. In his distant homeland, guests were always treated with great care...
Hmm...
Although Yun'er could no longer be considered a guest.
"Is that so? Is that so!"
Dai Yun'er giggled, agreeing with a cheerful tone. She didn't linger too long on the teacup and instead turned her gaze toward Tang Luo Chuan, her lively eyes quite endearing.
"But..."
"Luo Chuan's aura today feels even more powerful than before."
Dai Yun'er blinked, speaking directly.
"My cultivation has made some progress, but it's nothing worth mentioning."
"On the other hand, Yun'er, you didn't focus on your training today and came to find me..."
"Could it be that you want me to go to Star Luo Continent again?"
Tang Luo Chuan looked at her with a smile, as if he had already guessed her intentions, and preemptively asked.
"As expected, nothing can be hidden from Luo Chuan..."
"In these three years, Luo Chuan's progress has been rapid. My father, my elder brother, and even the Imperial Preceptor are well aware of it. However, they haven't had the chance to meet you again. Now that the Star Luo Continent's advanced competition has begun..."
"Do you have any thoughts on this?"
Dai Yun'er nodded, then asked with eager eyes. Today, she hadn't come just for herself, but also for someone else who was equally eager for this answer...
Her good sister, Duo Duo.
Her father, elder brother, the Imperial Preceptor, and even the so-called competition—none of it truly mattered. The only thing that really mattered was the desire to bring him back to Star Luo Continent.
"You... I don't have any plans for that at the moment. We'll see when the time comes."
Tang Luo Chuan shook his head with a smile, speaking frankly.
His words were not just a casual response. It was possible that he might indeed visit Star Luo Continent in the future. The Star Luo Competition might not be important, but...
Accompanying his girls to the competition on Star Luo Continent was quite important.
Although he had no interest in the competition itself, the others around him...
Ye Hui, Si Duo, Yun'er, Xiao Yan, Xing Lan, and even Sister Mu Xi, the blacksmith, all wanted to prove their talents through that competition.
Ah, and I almost forgot Wu Lin, Xie Xie, and Wei Xiao Feng. Everyone wanted to claim their own little bit of glory in the competition.
"As expected..."
Dai Yun'er wasn't particularly surprised by Tang Luo Chuan's answer, but her eyes still showed a hint of disappointment.
Usually, the relationship between her and the other sisters was quite good. After all, they all shared feelings for the same person. There was no rivalry among them; they even supported each other...
She knew that Sister Ye Hui was already planning to bring Luo Chuan home, but for her, bringing him back to Star Luo Continent was proving to be so difficult. It felt almost unfair...
"I understand."
"Then, when the opportunity arises, you'll come to Star Luo Continent, okay?"
Dai Yun'er took a deep breath, hugging Tang Luo Chuan's arm, her face filled with hope. Meanwhile, her other hand, seemingly calm, subtly reached toward the teacup.
A colorless, odorless, and even indistinguishable powder-like medicine seamlessly dissolved into the drink, a process that even Tang Luochuan didn't pay much attention to.
"Luochuan, I'll take my leave now..."
"We'll talk next time."
After completing her little maneuver, Dai Yun'er's expression shifted slightly. She took a deep breath and spoke in this manner.
"No need to see me off!"
"Luochuan, you should go and focus on your cultivation."
With these words, Dai Yun'er headed towards the door, leaving Tang Luochuan utterly bewildered.
"Yun'er..."
"Something feels off today."
Tang Luochuan glanced in confusion, then silently picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, his face filled with perplexity.
As for the effect...
Come on, how could the Dragon God be affected by a mere sedative? "..." "Luochuan..."
"I'm sorry..."
Outside the door, Dai Yun'er wrestled with her thoughts, her face already flushed with uncontrollable embarrassment, she thought to herself.
The reason for today's actions stemmed from a dream she had previously. In the dream, Luochuan accidentally consumed a sedative and ended up with her...
Well, she woke up at the crucial moment.
But this incident had deeply imprinted itself in her heart. Initially, she hadn't intended to go this far, being the eldest princess of the royal family...
She felt too shy.
But if this could win Luochuan over...
"Dai Yun'er!"
"You can definitely do it!"
Taking a deep breath, Dai Yun'er affirmed with determination!
The sedative's effect was such that even a titled Douluo would fall into an indescribable state, let alone Luochuan. There would definitely, definitely be no mishaps! Until an hour later...
"Luochuan..."
"Where is he?"
Sitting cross-legged on the floor on the other side of the dormitory building, Dai Yun'er's gaze was completely fixed on Tang Luochuan's dormitory, her heart filled with confusion.
"Could it be..."
In the next moment, Dai Yun'er suddenly realized something! Luochuan must have seen her leave and didn't drink the tea she had prepared for him! After all, it was tea brewed specifically for her, and since she had left, Luochuan probably didn't drink it at all!
"It must be so..."
"Phew! I overlooked one detail!"
Dai Yun'er's eyes showed a hint of regret, along with a sense of relief, as she murmured.
The reason for her relief was, of course, that if things had actually gone as planned, she would have been too embarrassed to face Luochuan...
"Next time, I'll try harder!"
Dai Yun'er thought to herself.
"..."
Five days later.
"Ye Hui."
"Let's set off today."
In Yuan Ye Hui's dormitory, Tang Luochuan revealed a gentle smile and spoke slowly.
"To..."
"Today, huh."
Hearing this, the girl in front of him was momentarily stunned, her previously calm expression showing a trace of strangeness, as she muttered in a daze.
Going home...
For her, these two words could be traced back to a very distant time.
The last time she was at home was when her parents were still alive, back when her family was very happy, whether it was her always-smiling grandfather or her joyful uncles and aunts...
But that was many years ago.
Now, going back home...
Could she really return to the past? "Ye Hui, what's wrong."
As Yuanen Yehui's mood hit rock bottom, a gentle hand reached out and lightly held hers, asking.
"..."
"I'm fine."
Yuanen Yehui smiled slightly in response.
She wasn't alone anymore. There were many kind sisters around her now, and most importantly, by her side was this person who always made her feel at ease.
"Luo Chuan, there's something else I want to tell you..."
Yuanen Yehui took a deep breath, speaking with some shyness.
"When we go back this time..."
"Could you go as my boyfriend?"
