At night.
Su Yan and his group stayed at a hotel arranged by the Red Dust family.
Su Yan stood in front of the glass window of his hotel room and looked at the city lights of Mingdu under the dark night sky. High buildings stood tall all around, and colorful lights flashed continuously, but his mind was full of heavy worries.
The affairs here in the world of Douluo 2 were mostly wrapped up for now.
As for that Three-Eyed Golden Lion, he did not need to make a special journey to go find her. After he went back, she could just use teleportation to come directly over to the Douluo 1 world.
That meant the moment he returned tomorrow, he would have to face the situation head-on.
He had to face the Little Angel.
He wondered what he could possibly do to save her. Then he realized he should be thinking about how to save his Supreme Pontiff sister instead.
Su Yan suddenly understood the truth. It turned out that his personal relationship troubles were not even the main problem. Right now, the biggest issue was the complicated conflict between Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue.
Bibi Dong was back to her senses now.
However, even if Bibi Dong was clear-headed, how could the Little Angel ever forgive her for all the terrible things she did in the past?
At that moment, Bibi Dong finished taking her shower and walked out wearing a soft purple bathrobe. She saw Su Yan standing alone by the window in a daze and asked him with confusion, "Xiao Yan, what are you thinking about all by yourself?"
Su Yan turned around and saw how lovely Bibi Dong looked after her bath. He could not help stepping forward to hold her in his arms and answered softly, "I am just thinking about what will happen after we go back tomorrow."
Bibi Dong looked at him with a slight glare and said, "You little bastard, are you worrying that the girl you call an orphan and I will start fighting the moment we return? Do you think your Supreme Pontiff auntie is a foolish little girl who does not know how to care about your feelings? Even if I say sharp words to her, I will not actually fight her. Do not worry, my sweetheart. How could I ever bring myself to make things hard for you?"
Su Yan did not know whether to laugh or cry. His Supreme Pontiff sister was truly gentle and very understanding toward him.
He let out a deep breath and said, "It is a very long story."
Bibi Dong pinned Su Yan down under her and said, "Little bastard, we spent so much time cultivating together last time, so why are you still acting like this? Isn't it already going smoothly? I am being serious with you right now, but you are not. When I am not serious, you suddenly become serious. Anyway, I do not care. We are only going to cultivate for the first half of the night. For the rest of the night, you can go find your little princess and let her help you solve your problems."
Meanwhile, inside the group chat, messages continued to pop up quickly.
Liu Erlong wrote, "The night is so long, and I do not feel like sleeping at all. Su Yan, are you guys coming back tomorrow?"
Ning Rongrong replied, "Yes! Your Majesty, after we return tomorrow, you can just teleport directly to my side."
Call Me Her Majesty the Empress asked, "Okay! Little Princess, do you have lots and lots of money? In the human world, do all the delicious foods cost money to buy?"
Wang Dong answered, "You are totally right!"
Yanzi is not a Swallow added, "The Little Princess is probably the richest person in our entire group, except for Bibi Dong."
Call Me Her Majesty the Empress typed, "Little Princess, can you lend me a little bit of money?"
Group Member No. 9 chimed in, "If she does, will you be obedient then?"
Call Me Her Majesty the Empress replied, "You sneaky Number Nine, do not think I do not know what you want to say next! I have already been tricked by you twice, so I will definitely not be tricked a third time."
Xiao Wu sent, "666!"
Gu Yuena 2 wrote, "Su Yan, I will leave the Little Golden Lion in your care. If you need anything at all, you can just tell me or Gu Yuena 1."
Gu Yuena 1 answered, "It is fine. Su Yan and the others are returning tomorrow anyway. I will take Zi Ji and Bi Ji to the human world to look for them."
Gu Yuena 2 sent, "???"
Over at Spirit Hall, Hu Liena was having a hard time falling asleep.
Looking at the constant stream of messages from everyone in the group chat, her mind was full of mixed feelings.
Was tomorrow really the day?
Tomorrow, her teacher would finally return.
Tomorrow, Xiao Xue's true identity would be completely exposed to the world.
Everything was coming to a head.
She wondered if anyone would start a live stream tomorrow. She was actually very curious to see her teacher's shocked face when she finally saw Xiao Xue again.
Hu Liena typed, "Sigh!"
Dark Avenger asked, "Senior Sister, you do not seem very happy that Teacher is coming back tomorrow?"
Ma Xiaotao offered, "Hu Liena, if you have something on your mind, you can tell your Auntie Tao. Maybe I can give you some good advice?"
Bai Chenxiang wrote, "666!"
Jiang Nannan said, "Tomorrow I am going to the Douluo 1 world where Brother Su Yan lives. Just thinking about it makes me feel so nervous!"
Zhu Zhuqing comforted her, "There is no need to be nervous. You will become an Administrator very soon, and then you will receive your own special reward. You can always go back whenever you want to visit."
Liu Erlong typed, "Su Yan, hurry up and come back! I want to become Hu Liena's Aunt Long. Hu Liena, why don't you call me Aunt Long right now?"
Hu Liena replied, "Liu Erlong, you should just go talk to Tang Yuehua about your romantic thoughts."
Tang Yuehua wrote, "Just you wait. Erlong and I will definitely become your aunties in the end!"
I Am an Orphan sent, "Bibi Dong, I will be right here waiting for you to come find me."
As the night grew darker, the members in the group chat slowly stopped talking and went to sleep one by one. For most of them, this was just a normal night.
However, for Qian Renxue, this was truly a sleepless night.
Inside the Crown Prince Mansion, Qian Renxue lay on her side in her bed. The bright moonlight shone through the window, as if reminding her that a long-separated family member was about to return.
In truth, Qian Renxue felt deeply conflicted inside her heart.
She did not know how she should face Bibi Dong when they finally met. Was she supposed to call her sister?
When she thought about it more, she felt that might be too cruel.
Bibi Dong was actually a very pitiful woman who had suffered a lot. Now that she was finally recovering her senses, was it right to push her back into deep pain again?
Qian Renxue could not bring herself to be so harsh. In her heart, she had always cared about Bibi Dong very much.
Then she suddenly sat up in bed, her face turning red with anger. "Wait, that is not right at all!"
She realized she could not forgive her so easily.
That terrible woman had been calling her an orphan in the chat group every single day and had even found so many new aunties for her.
Just thinking about those things made her blood boil with rage.
That night, Qian Renxue could not sleep at all.
One moment she was feeling sorry for Bibi Dong's painful past, but the next moment she felt furious at her. Then her anger turned toward Su Yan, before she went back to worrying about how they would ever get along in the future. Her thoughts were completely tangled up.
She stayed awake until the moon disappeared and the bright sun rose in the morning sky.
Only then did Qian Renxue finally drift off into a heavy, tired sleep.
Meanwhile, the chat group became active again as morning arrived.
Red Dust Dream Dream Dream typed, "I cannot sleep anymore, so I am going to find Su Yan right now!"
Ning Rongrong replied, "Come over quickly! I will share some delicious treats with you! Nannan, you should come as well. I will get some snacks ready for you all, because I plan to sleep a bit longer."
Jiang Nannan sent, "???"
Call Me Her Majesty the Empress asked, "What delicious treats? Can you share some with me too?"
Yanzi is not a Swallow wrote, "This is really getting out of hand. Someone just let Su Yan be a decent person for once!"
Group Member No. 9 sent, "666!"
Liu Erlong typed, "You old woman, hurry up and get out of bed! You are going back today to see that orphan you have been thinking about for so long."
