Ling Chuxi frowned slightly. The fifth princess’s growth made her feel a little complicated within her heart. That coquettish fifth princes, would she still be in existence? It was just that the intrigues and plots within the imperial family was crueller than those faced by ordinary families, and if one wanted to live on better, then the fifth princess’ choice to harden herself was no doubt the best choice.
“That’s right, where is she?” asked Ling Chuxi. If this were the past, the moment the fifth princess received news of her return, the fifth princess would have long since came rolling over, making a great hoo-ha. But today, she actually had not even see the fifth princess’ figure yet.
“Zhuoyi and her have acknowledged an expert as their master and have been cultivating all day these days. I have already sent someone to notify her,” said Fu Chengyu.
“Forget it, let her properly practice her cultivation. Let’s find a place to have a proper meal,” replied Ling Chuxi. It was so rare that the fifth princess had the chance to make some improvements to her skills, so Ling Chuxi did not wish to affect her time of cultivation. Since the fifth princess would be caught up in the whirlpool of battling for imperial power in the future, then raising her cultivation level was an extremely important matter. No matter what, Ling Chuxi would help her. To Ling Chuxi, the fifth princess was still that round little meatball princess that held onto Ling Chuxi’s thigh and acted coquettishly.
“I have already made a reservation at Jing Hua Restaurant,” said Fu Chengyu as he could not help but laugh. At least in the matters of eating, he knew Ling Chuxi too well. When she was happy, she ate and when she was unhappy, she also ate. Today, as she had just returned from afar and successfully cured Second Elder’s injuries, how was it possible for her to not want to have a big feast?
After returning to their rooms to freshen up and change clothes, Ling Chuxi, Ling Yichen, Fu Chengyu, Luo Li, and the rest of group went out together.
Outside in the courtyard, Jiang Wuhen was telling Li Shaoqiu something with his spittle flying everywhere, scaring Li Shaoqiu into a daze. A cheater and a sticky candy had only regretted that they had met too late in life and were chatting away in an extraordinary agreement.
Getting excited, Jiang Wuhen pulled out his cloth banners that he used to make a living, revealing a crooked row of hugely written words—”Find People, Guide The Way, Inquire About News, Nothing Is Impossible, No Matter Is Too Small, Number One Smart Student!”
“Brother Jiang, it looks like there are a few wrongly written words,” said Li Shaoqiu cautiously.
“You don’t understand. This is called being mysterious. Those who don’t understand will think that I have written these words wrongly. But for those who understand, only they will know that there is a mystery contained within these words,” explained Jiang Wuhen as his expression remained unchanged, his heart didn’t race, and his expression remained cool and hard to gauge.
“Logical, that’s very logical,” agreed Li Shaoqiu with a face full of worship.
“Chuxi, is this person your friend?” asked Fu Chengyu.
“I don’t know him,” replied Ling Chuxi, immediately turning her head away and quickening her pace. Ling Yichen also turned his head away with an expression full of disdain, as though he totally did not know who this fella was.
“Miss Ling, where are you all going?” asked Li Shaoqiu and Jiang Wuhen when they saw Ling Chuxi and the rest walking away from them and immediately came running back to rejoin the group.
“Going to eat,” replied Ling Chuxi discourteously.
“That’s great. Brother Jiang and I really hit it off, so I will treat all of you to a meal,” said Li Shaoqiu happily as he slapped his own chest.
If it were not for the last line, Ling Chuxi would otherwise not wish to go out with these two sticky candies. However, since she was moved by the fact that there was someone who was willing to treat them, Ling Chuxi also naturally felt a little embarrassed to reject that person. It would be a little too wounding to that person’s self-esteem.
“All right, then.” For the sake of Li Shaoqiu’s self-esteem, Ling Chuxi could only “reluctantly” agree.
The group of them walked out of the courtyard and took the carriage, driving it to Jing Hua Restaurant.
At the same time, another carriage was also heading in the same direction as theirs but from a different place. At a corner of the carriage, a small symbol was carved. Only a very meticulous person would have noticed that it was the symbol of the sovereign country, Ding Lin Country.
Who could possibly be in this carriage?
