However, Wuxing chose to withhold the truth that Lingyun had only given him one pill and would provide a solution on their wedding day. He kept this information to himself, believing that Lingyun’s actions were driven by her desire to marry him.

Given the circ.u.mstances, there was no need to share such minor details with anyone else. It would only bring humiliation upon himself.

Qianji observed Wuxing closely, noticing a subtle change in his demeanor. While Wuxing appeared resolute, there was an underlying sense of unease that hadn’t been present before.

Qianji couldn’t help but feel that Lingyun’s role had become crucial for their current situation. She was indispensable, and her actions held significant weight.

So he was still not very convinced by this situation.

Wuxing was too young, too confident and too arrogant.

He firmly believed that Lingyun would obey him.

But people changed, especially women.

“Find a time, so I can meet her personally. I need to speak with her in private, right?” Qianji asked.

Wuxing hesitated. He was not very willing to do so.

But Qianji glared deep into him.

Wuxing nodded in the end.

He was not very satisfied by how Lingyun reacted.

He wondered if she was only smart with drugs, not with anything else.

It was good that Qianji wanted to speak with her.

For one thing, he could give her pressure, which he himself could not do. For another, she could be instructed to do what came next.

They had been out of Piaomiao Pavilion for half a month, which was already falling beyond their schedule.

They had to get Golden Rolls, or it would be too late. Piaomiao Pavilion would become so pa.s.sive and their plan would be postponed too.

Wuxing thought of this and nodded. “I will speak with her tomorrow.”

Qianji was satisfied.

Standing up, he suggested that they should have talked outside.

They also needed to make a plan for their own, apart from relying on Lingyun.

It seemed that Pheonix Girl did not take any threat from them. They had nothing else they could do apart from relying on Lingyun, after all.

That was what made Qianji so confused.

They had just walked out of the room when they saw hidden guards from Shadow Door leading people from the Cangyan Door coming in.

Seeing people from the Cangyan Door, Qianji threw them a fierce glare.

Young Head of the Cangyan Door was still wearing a kind smile. He nodded at Qianji, greeting. “Qianji Elderly Man, have you just settled down?”

“….”

“The hostel isn’t as comfortable as that in the court, but it is quiet. If you need anything, we are right there.” Young Head of the Cangyan Door smiled.

Qianji smiled briefly. “Sure.”

They were about to wave each other goodbye.

At this moment.

People from Snow Territory arrived too.

Seeing that, Qianji suddenly showed some smile. Piaomiao Pavilion was humiliated to have been moved to this hostel as well.

However…

If people from Snow Territory were present as well, then they would be on an equal footing. Feeling a sense of confidence, Qianji approached the individuals from Snow Territory.

“Greetings, City Lord Ouyang,” Qianji said.
