“What's with him? He is not the type of person who likes to interfere in the affairs of others. Why is he being so nice today?”
Qingyi kept thinking about Baili Qingchen's strange behavior today. He thought that man was very strange. A few days ago, too. The man continued to appear in front of him like a ghost. Wherever Qingyi went, Baili Qingchen must have always appeared in unexpected moments.
Exactly like today. Qingyi had wanted to see to what extent Su Wan’er would act. Who would have thought that Baili Qingchen had suddenly come and meddled in her affairs. The ‘-frills Princess Empress Changle’ that the man used to threaten Su Wan’er must have been aiming to ridicule him as well. Baili Qingchen seemed to want to show that she was the real master.
Hah, how funny is that!
“Master, the progress of the storyline has reached thirty-five percent,” said Yinghao who always appears suddenly. Qingyi almost hit the little panda's head with a book.
“Yinghao, do we have a tool that can detect a person's thoughts?” ask Qingyi.
“You mean?”
“I want to know the contents of Baili Qingchen's head. Lately he's been acting strange.”
Yinghao shook his head through his short neck. Dimensional space is not designed to store abstract objects whose function is beyond reason. Yinghao also knew that the changes that occurred to the main character like Baili Qingchen were part of the storyline that had changed as well. His master should be pleased, for his mission will soon be successful.
However, another Qingyi thought. Baili Qingchen's strange behavior actually made her horrified and agitated. Just imagine, a cold man, who had not received the woman in his life suddenly defended his empress' daughter in front of the crowd. He also insisted on sleeping in the same room and appearing unannounced. Given that, Qingyi shuddered.
“I don't know what nightmare will be on my side later,”. Qingyi spread her body over the grass. Right now he was in the dimensional space, enjoying the calmness that permeated into his soul.
“For what to think? We can find out the answer later.”
“You're right. Ah, I don't know what happened to Su Wan’er at this time. Baili Qingchen is very powerful, Mayor Xizhou must have trouble dealing with it.”
Something was breaking his heart. Su Wan’er couldn't possibly bully him for no reason. From what Qingyi heard, Su Wan’er had always been careful in acting. His behavior today seemed to be far from his attitude and reputation.
That woman would not antagonize someone for no apparent reason. Like rumors, Su Wan’er did like to bully people, but always did so with caution. What he did today did not seem to be his style.
Qingyi suspected that there must be someone provoking her. Someone must be playing in the back, blowing the wind into the blazing flames that had been burning in Su Wan’er's heart. If that's true, that person benefits. The one who did it must be someone who had a grudge against Qingyi.
“Master, did you think of anything?” ask Yinghao.
“Yeah, I just suspected that someone had used Su Wan’er to humiliate me. Although he was not good, but bullying an unknown person was not the right thing to do. I don't think it's style for people like him,” Qingyi replied.
Qingyi chewed on the gum she had taken from the dimensional space. He had seen the reward for his mission this time. Qingyi was very happy that the system gave her a massage chair that cost her a lot of money in the real world. Yinghao was right, the reward of the mission this time was special. He could laze around occasionally there.
His mission here was over and Qingyi wanted to go home. He wanted to know what kind of reaction Xiao Junjie had when he came home with Baili Qingchen. His blood pressure was guaranteed to rise and his face was definitely a dead red, considering Xiao Junjie hated him so much and so did not want Baili Qingchen to be with him.
Moreover, they left without telling him, Xiao Junjie must have been very angry. However, he did not know when Baili Qingchen would take him home. If Qingyi was desperate to go home by herself, she was worried that the assassins would come again.
Not far from there, Baili Qingchen noticed him after returning home from Xizhou Academy. He deliberately stayed here again, because Xizhou Academy was not too comfortable for him. Baili Qingchen wanted to immediately finish her affairs here and return to the capital. However, it seemed like the covert matter in Xizhou Academy would take a few more days to resolve.
Without saying anything, he walked into the room.
***
The next day, Lady Zhao knocked on her bedroom door early in the morning. She said Qingyi was not in her room. Baili Qingchen instantly prepared and looked for her, perhaps the girl was playing downtown. He and Cui Kong searched every building, but the girl had no nose at all. Cui Kong then suggested that he just look for her, as Baili Qingchen had to go to Xizhou Academy to investigate the matter of her supervisor.
“No. He's my responsibility,” reject Baili Qingchen.
“But, you have to go to Xizhou Academy,” Cui Kong said.
However, Baili Qingchen again refused. It made Cui Kong both astonished and delighted. Usually, the master would give the job of finding the girl to him or to his other subordinates. This kind of business is never solved by hand. But this time, Baili Qingchen refused.
“Search all cities and find him!”
The secret forces of Baili Qingchen, scattered in the region, helped to find the Princess Empress. They searched every corner of Xizhou City, but had not found it yet. Baili Qingchen moved towards places that many people did not reach, hoping that the naughty girl was there.
Meanwhile, Qingyi was in a forest that was quite far from the city center. Last night, he heard something strange slowly moving towards the room he was in, then some mysterious person came to set his house on fire. Just so he prevents them. The mysterious person ran away, then Qingyi chased after him.
Unfortunately, he got lost in the forest and had trouble finding directions. Yinghao was in the process of renewal and the dimensional space was being unusable, making him like a purposeless person. Qingyi had already walked for three more hours, hoping for someone to ask for help. To this day, he found nothing.
His stomach suddenly sounded. Qingyi searched for something edible, then found a fruitful forest peach. Armed with his meager rock climbing skills, Qingyi climbed up the peach tree and reached the largest branch. He picked some peaches and ate them there. Honey, the twig broke and Qingyi immediately fell down.
Qingyi grimaced as her butt came into contact with the ground. He clucked in annoyance, feeling that this was an unlucky day for him. If only he had not chased after those people, he might have been eating good food at the residence by now. He also did not need to walk this far.
“It has fallen, hit the stairs anyway! I think I should lose weight so that the twigs I sit on don't break,”. Qingyi picked up some peaches that fell with her, wiped them with clothes and ate them while walking.
Just as he walked a few steps, the rain suddenly fell. Qingyi immediately ran to find a place to shelter. Not being careful, he slipped and rolled until his body was stranded in a not-so-deep valley. It was fortunate that he did not hit rocks or trees until his body was not injured too badly.
Dropped, he got up and walked back. His heart was delighted when he saw a cave that he could use for shelter. Arriving there, Qingyi immediately rested herself. His body was leaning against the cave wall. Being too tired, Qingyi fell asleep despite her clothes being soaked.
“Qingyi! Qingyi, wake!”
Qingyi was troubled by the sound that woke her up. His cheeks were patted by someone, then he slowly opened his eyes to see who had dared to disturb his sleep. His eyes were rounded when he saw a person in a white fur coat crouching before him with an expression that could not be interpreted.
“Baili Qingchen?” tanyanya. There was a long breath coming out of the man's respiratory organs.
His wife is now like a vagrant. Koto, and also drenched. Baili Qingchen directly carried him, taking him out of the cave. Cui Kong came with two horses. Just then, the rain had just stopped and the sky was slowly starting to clear again. Cui Kong and Baili Qingchen returned to the center of Xizhou City, bringing Qingyi back to sleep so tired.
