Luo Ruying always felt that there seemed to be a mysterious force lurking in the city that she hadn't detected…
She hoped that they wouldn't get involved with her. Now, she just wanted to live a peaceful and ordinary life with her family.
Seeing Luo Ruying's furrowed brow and worried expression, Ning Yechen reached out and gently held her hand, offering a charming smile.
Luo Ruying felt inexplicably at ease and returned a soft smile.
Qi Yuan had been secretly observing Luo Ruying and Ning Yechen. Seeing them holding hands under the table, she couldn't help but smile like an aunt.
She didn't know if it was just her imagination, but it seemed that Sister Luo and Brother Ning's relationship had gotten even better…
To avoid disturbing the beautiful atmosphere, Qi Yuan stopped talking about those worrying and scary things and changed the subject, asking, "By the way, Sister Luo, Brother Ning, did you two go to the fireworks display last night?"
"Mhm, I went."
"It was really beautiful, so pretty."
Luo Ruying nodded with a smile.
In her heart, she was quite grateful to Qi Yuan for recommending that she go watch the fireworks display.
"Eh… could it be that you, Sister Luo, went up onto the hillside?"
Qi Yuan asked curiously.
"Mhm? Yes…"
"Could it be that I went to the wrong place?"
Luo Ruying looked puzzled, not understanding why Qi Yuan would ask such a question. Wasn't the hillside specifically for watching the fireworks display?
But it seemed like no one had come to watch last night…?
Seeing Luo Ruying's confusion, Qi Yuan knew she probably didn't know. She immediately clenched her fists and said indignantly:
"Sister Luo went to the right place."
"It's just that last night, the fireworks display suddenly started early for some reason."
"The people responsible for lighting the fireworks were found this morning, sleeping together in a bush. They don't remember anything that happened."
"The most infuriating thing is that some guy set up a Mist Formation at the entrance to the hillside!"
"It prevented everyone from getting up there!"
"Some people flew around in the Mist all night and couldn't get out, and were found collapsed at the foot of the mountain at dawn."
"Now, many cultivators in the city are looking for the prankster!"
Because of the Mist at the foot of the mountain last night, no one in the city went up the hillside to watch the fireworks.
Hearing that Luo Ruying had actually gone up, Qi Yuan was very surprised.
Thinking about it carefully, it was probably because Sister Luo was strong, and the Mist couldn't trap her…
Luo Ruying, hearing this, was quite curious who would specifically play such a prank and subconsciously looked at Yue Qingyou.
It was her who told her last night that the fireworks display was brought forward…
How did she know…
Yue Qingyou sat calmly in her seat, elegantly raising her teacup and taking a light sip. She looked as if she had nothing to do with what was happening...
Only Ning Yechen knew that she was definitely behind all of this...
"Daddy, mm..."
Having eaten her fill, Luo Hongye directly wriggled from the chair beside her into Ning Yechen's arms, adjusting her position before settling comfortably into his embrace.
Ning Yechen affectionately held Luo Hongye closer, stroking her cute, small head.
A child's head was round and smooth, feeling very nice to touch.
Luo Hongye closed her eyes, her face filled with happy enjoyment.
Only when she was in the arms of Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying would she show such a happy expression.
Based on the interactions and observations over this period, Qi Yuan noticed that Luo Hongye always seemed to be by Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying's side. She was extremely shy around strangers and didn't like to get close to others.
Not to mention playing with children her own age.
Even Qi Yuan had only managed to get close to Luo Hongye gradually through the lure of food and spending a long time together.
She always felt that Luo Hongye seemed overly reliant on Luo Ruying and Ning Yechen.
"Sister Luo, Big Brother Ning, after the New Year, the annual enrollment period for Nanli Academy will begin again."
"Besides the specialized cultivation classes at Nanli Academy, there are also classes for children and nurseries."
"Should we sign up Xiaoye Ye too?"
Qi Yuan thought for a moment and suddenly proposed.
Nanli Academy was considered the most prestigious academy in Nanzhou, and it had a dedicated kindergarten, which would be suitable for a child like Luo Hongye.
Luo Ruying and Ning Yechen were both stunned for a moment when they heard the suggestion to send Luo Hongye to the kindergarten, their expressions hesitant.
They naturally knew that Luo Hongye loved being with them and was somewhat overly reliant on them.
But this was also related to Luo Hongye's experiences since childhood.
She had either been hiding alone in various places or locked in a dark dungeon, never having contact with others.
With no sense of security or reliance, she naturally resisted strangers.
It was precisely because of this that Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying doted on her so much.
Although Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying both liked Luo Hongye clinging to them, they still hoped that the child would be able to interact more with others in the future and learn more about the world.
After all, what parent doesn't want their child to become more cheerful and lively?
Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying were indeed seriously considering Qi Yuan's suggestion.
It was just that sending Luo Hongye to the academy and having her leave their side, as the old father and mother, they were quite reluctant and worried…
Especially Luo Ruying; she would panic if Luo Hongye wasn't within her sight for even a moment.
Letting Luo Hongye leave her for most of the day, she couldn't bear to do it…
So, they both needed to carefully consider Qi Yuan's suggestion.
Seeing Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying's worry and reluctance, Qi Yuan patted her chest and said with a smile:
"Sister Luo, Brother Ning, you don't have to worry."
"I will also sign up for Nanli Academy. I'll take good care of Little Yeye in the academy!"
However, as soon as she said this, Yue Qingyou immediately gave her a look of disdain.
With the strength of this mere ant, she actually dared to say she would protect their most precious little princess of the Demon Realm…
Yue Qingyou's naked gaze was undisguised, and Qi Yuan immediately noticed it…
She didn't know if it was her imagination, but this beautiful big sister seemed to be staring at her with a ridiculous gaze, as if looking at an insect…
Suddenly, she felt inexplicably disheartened…
"Miss Qi, since you're joining Nanli Academy, aren't you planning to take over the Merchant Guild in your family?" Luo Ruying asked, also curious, upon hearing that Qi Yuan was also signing up for Nanli Academy.
Qi Yuan's expression turned serious, and her eyes were firm as she stated:
"Thanks to Sister Luo and Brother Ning, the Qi family's business is now thriving. Even without me, there's no problem."
"Moreover, thanks to Brother Ning, I can now resume cultivation!"
"So, I want to continue pursuing my childhood dream, to become a cultivator as amazing as Sister Luo!"
Before, because her meridians were damaged, cultivation was extremely difficult. Now that her meridians were completely restored, she naturally wanted to join Nanli Academy and pursue the path of cultivation.
"The path of cultivation might not be easy, Miss Qi, you have to work hard."
Luo Ruying saw that Qi Yuan was truly determined and passionate, so she smiled and encouraged her.
Qi Yuan's talent wasn't bad. If she could persevere, she might be able to achieve something in the future…
