Chapter 189 Jiang Nian: Where Did You Pick Up This Kitten From?
Dai Mubai changed rooms again, wanting to vent all his anger on the two sisters.
However, he found that he couldn't get up no matter what.
"Cough cough, I'm not feeling well today, let's do it another day."
Dai Mubai pulled up his pants and hurriedly left, regretting why he continued. If he had chased after her earlier, he might have been able to win Zhu Zhuqing back.
But now...
"Damn! I'm so unlucky!"
The two sisters laughed as they watched him leave, their faces soon showing disdain.
"Pah! He bragged so much, but he couldn't even last half a minute. I think that's all the Third Prince is capable of."
"That's right."
Zhu Zhuqing, who had already left the hotel, just wanted to escape this disgusting imperial city.
But she didn't know where to go.
No matter how much she struggled now, perhaps her fate wouldn't change.
Bang!
A clap of thunder boomed.
The sky darkened, and a few moments later, rain the size of soybeans began to fall.
Zhu Zhuqing slowed her pace, casually finding a quiet spot to sit down, her eyes vacant as she stared at the lake before her, letting the rain lash against her face.
Silent raindrops streamed down her cheeks, indistinguishable for a moment from tears.
*Tap tap tap*
—a series of crisp footsteps caught her attention. She instinctively looked up to wipe the raindrops from her face, frowning as she tried to appear as cold as possible.
Turning her head, she watched the approaching woman.
She had beautiful black hair, a slender figure, and a cool, aloof air.
Her emerald green, vertical pupils seemed to glimpse fate, drawing one in irresistibly.
The woman, carrying an oil-paper umbrella, slowly approached her.
Zhu Zhuqing stood up warily, instinctively backing away like a wounded wildcat, resisting the approach of a stranger.
Qingyu paid no attention, a glint of green light flashing in her pupils. Zhu Zhuqing felt her legs go weak, and she froze on the spot.
A moment later, the umbrella covered her head, preventing the rain from getting in.
"You...who are you?!" Zhu Zhuqing was nervous. Although the woman before her was indeed beautiful, the pressure she felt was even stronger than that of the current emperor!
Qingyu expressionlessly reached out and ruffled her wet hair. After an unknown amount of time, she sighed helplessly, "Getting wet will make you catch a cold."
Zhu Zhuqing froze, staring blankly at the woman before her, her mind a complete blank.
"How about becoming my disciple? I'll help you rewrite your destiny." A faint smile played on Qingyu's lips as she lowered her head to rub the girl's head, the tenderness in her eyes not feigned.
"I..." Zhu Zhuqing didn't know how to begin. She truly wanted to escape this empire, escape this family, escape this damned power struggle.
However, it seemed that apart from the Spirit Hall, there was nowhere on the entire continent that could help her from the Star Luo Empire's power...
Qingyu looked up at the small mountain not far away, said nothing, and simply threw a punch.
Bang!
The small mountain in the distance exploded, and the entire mountain range trembled twice, scattering countless pebbles that rippled on the lake.
Zhu Zhuqing's pupils suddenly contracted. She could shatter a small mountain with a single punch without using her spirit?!
Even a Title Douluo couldn't do that, right?
"Disciple Zhu Zhuqing greets Master!"
"Yes, my name is Qingyu, and from now on you are my disciple."
Saying this, she took Zhu Zhuqing's wrist and walked towards a hotel.
The girl stared blankly at that cold and beautiful face, suddenly feeling that all of this was so unreal.
The two women returned to the hotel. Little White Mouse came running over excitedly, and upon seeing the extra girl, it stood up and stared at her in astonishment.
That martial spirit aura... amazing!
Zhu Zhuqing looked at the little white mouse in front of her with a strange feeling, and suddenly had the urge to pick it up and roughly handle it.
"Squeak!" Little White Mouse put its hands on its hips, striking a masterly pose, seemingly trying to scare her.
Qingyu glanced at it, opened her mouth, and said, "Get lost."
Little White Mouse instantly shivered, hugged its head, and went into the master bedroom, as if about to cry.
"Teacher, this mouse is actually a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast?!" Zhu Zhuqing opened her mouth in shock, looking at her blankly.
Qingyu hummed in agreement and, without saying a word, took her to take a shower.
In the bathroom, the two women talked quietly.
Zhu Zhuqing discovered that although her newly recognized teacher appeared aloof, she was actually quite gentle inside.
Soon her body warmed up. After showering and drying herself, she put on the hotel's disposable pajamas, her wet hair disheveled, and was led out of the bathroom by Qingyu's hand.
Upon entering the living room, Zhu Zhuqing noticed another man on the sofa and immediately assumed a defensive stance, her eyes turning cold.
Qingyu gently tapped her head: "Didn't I tell you there was someone else?"
"Oh? I forgot..." Zhu Zhuqing rubbed her head and muttered softly, then tightened her grip on Qingyu's arm, hiding behind him and peeking out at the man.
She blinked, surprised.
He seemed...quite handsome... much more handsome than her fiancé...
"Young master, I met a young girl while traveling. Seeing her talent, I'd like to take her as my disciple."
"No problem." Jiang Nian raised his head, revealing a gentle smile: "Let me see your disciple."
"Hmm." Qingyu pulled Zhu Zhuqing out from behind. The girl's cheeks were slightly flushed, her hands awkwardly clasped, and her head slightly lowered, appearing somewhat reserved.
She was small and adorable.
Jiang Nian secretly marveled at how well-developed little girls were these days, then sensed her soul power.
Hmm?
Level 18?
Not bad...
"Come sit down, I have some questions for you."
Qing Yu pulled Zhu Zhuqing's wrist and sat her down beside him. The little girl's hair was still a bit damp from her bath.
Jiang Nian used his soul power to dry her hair, gently rubbing it with his fingers.
Zhu Zhuqing was initially a little resistant, but after realizing how comfortable it felt, her clenched hand slowly loosened.
This was a feeling she had never experienced with her parents...
"What's your name? Judging from your bone age, you seem to be less than eight years old, yet your soul power is already level eighteen. You must be from a large family, right?" Jiang Nian asked calmly.
"I... I'm called Zhu Zhuqing, the second young lady of the Zhu family..."
Jiang Nian's fingers paused, but quickly returned to normal. He looked up at Qing Yu, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
How did he end up bringing this girl back after just a short stroll?
Can cats and snakes live in harmony?
Not to mention there's a mouse too.
Jiang Nian sighed, realizing that Xiao Bai's life might not be so easy from now on.
"The Zhu family..."
"It's alright. Now that you're Qing Yu's disciple, even the White Tiger Emperor wouldn't dare to lay a hand on you."
