Ah Yin turned around and walked back to the villa without answering the girl's question.
Upon seeing this, Dongfang Yao was certain! Sister Ayin also liked Brother!
But the next second, Ah Yin's light voice reached her ears: "Child, instead of worrying about others, you should think about how to tell Ah Jing how you feel."
Dongfang Yao was stunned, her jaw dropping to the ground in shock.
How did Sister Yin figure it out? Was I that obvious?
No way, the women around my brother are way too high-level!
Just then, Dean Edmund rushed over.
"Dean?"
Dongfang Yao composed herself and looked at Edmund.
"By the way, my brother and his family have an urgent matter and have to go on a long trip. Just let me know if there's anything you need."
"I see."
Edmund understood immediately and explained his purpose.
It turned out that some important figures had come to visit Zixing Academy, and even specifically requested to meet them by name.
Dongfang Yao asked in confusion, "An important person? Who is it?"
Edmund whispered, "Your Highness, the Emperor of the Heavenly Dou Empire."
...
On the other end,
The two soul-guided sports cars sped away from the gates of Purple Star Academy.
Dugu Bo's hoarse voice echoed in Dongfang Jing's mind.
"Young Master Jing, the convoy that just passed by us was the Crown Prince's caravan."
"The Crown Prince? Who's that?"
"You don't know? The Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Qinghe."
Dongfang Yao never mentioned the Tian Dou royal family to him in her letter, so he did not know the name of the current crown prince.
He glanced subconsciously at the rearview mirror; at the academy gate, the once grand procession had become a tiny black dot.
It looked like an extremely luxurious carriage, surrounded by countless soldiers.
When they left the academy earlier, it seemed that some soldiers came forward and tried to stop them.
But the sports car was going too fast, and it shot off in a flash, without him noticing.
'So, the person sitting in that carriage was the Crown Prince?'
Dugu Bo's voice continued: "Emperor Xueye must already know about your affairs. That's why he sent Crown Prince Xue Qinghe to probe your strengths and weaknesses."
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Jing said nonchalantly, "Trying to test my strengths? I'm afraid in the end I won't be the one testing hers."
He casually replied, then pressed the accelerator even harder.
"It doesn't matter. Sister Yin and Yao'er can handle it. Instead of worrying about these things, let's get going as soon as possible."
...
Inside the other sports car, Dugu Bo was stunned as he listened to the words echoing in his mind.
This kid...
He grasped the key point of the latter half of Dongfang Jing's words.
Let's hurry on our way! To Sunset Forest!
A warm feeling, indescribable in its own right, surged through Dugu Bo's heart.
In order to get rid of the poison for himself and Yan Yan as soon as possible, you actually completely disregarded the personal visit of the Crown Prince of the Empire? Dongfang Jing, you bastard!
This friendship is so profound!
Dugu Bo's originally weathered face was now slightly flushed.
That kid is really good at getting along with people!
It's such a pity he didn't become his own granddaughter's husband!
...
Meanwhile, at Purple Star Academy.
Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, or rather Qian Renxue, was standing beside her magnificent crown prince carriage.
The air was still filled with a faint dust kicked up by the speeding Soul Guide sports car.
For the first time, a slight crack appeared on her usually calm and composed face, which was as gentle as jade.
Her original plan was to meet Dongfang Jing and the titled Douluo beside him, chat with them, and try to win them over.
By the way, ask about the origin of that soul-guided sports car.
But then she saw the sports car.
The driver was a handsome young man with silver hair.
That must be Dongfang Jing; she saw it too.
He also ordered his soldiers to step forward and stop them.
But the other party seemed not to have seen the Crown Prince's carriage, which represented the highest authority of the Heavenly Dou royal family, and disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.
Yes, that soul-guided sports car is indeed very fast.
But the people in the car were all Soul Masters, and Dugu Bo was also there. How could they not notice such a large convoy of the Crown Prince's entourage?
Not to mention the numerous soldiers guarding them, any normal person would stop to see what was happening, right?
Was he pretending not to see it?
Or did you see it but not pay attention?
This feeling of being completely ignored was something Qian Renxue had never experienced in all the years since she disguised herself as Xue Qinghe.
A strange sense of unease and confusion swirled in her heart.
'Perhaps the car was going too fast and they didn't notice.'
Qian Renxue convinced herself.
But if the other party drives away, wouldn't I have come all this way for nothing?
Their attempt to probe the other party's strengths and weaknesses completely failed.
'Well, since we're already here.'
'Perhaps there's something unique about the Purple Star Academy.'
Qian Renxue murmured to herself.
soon,
After obtaining Dongfang Yao's consent, Dean Edmund personally led Xue Qinghe towards the back mountain.
until...
"Brother Xue, what brings you here?"
A soft, cute female voice rang out, and Dongfang Yao's figure appeared in front.
A sweet smile graced her face.
But in their hearts, they were already on high alert.
Xue Qinghe appears gentle and refined on the surface, but in reality, he is extremely shrewd, meticulous, and decisive in his actions.
Back in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, from the very first time she met him, Dongfang Yao always kept a lot of thought in mind whenever she interacted with him.
Xue Qinghe immediately put on his signature gentle smile, just like an older brother who truly cares about his younger sister.
"Yao'er and Rongrong came to Tiandou City, but they didn't come to see me first. So, Brother Xue, you have no choice but to come to see them in person?"
"You are the Crown Prince, and you are extremely busy with state affairs. How could we dare to delay you?"
Dongfang Yao greeted him with a smile and polite words, while Xue Qinghe remained impeccably polite.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xue Qinghe aptly changed the subject.
"Speaking of which, why did you and Rongrong decide to join Purple Star Academy? Isn't my Heavenly Dou Royal Academy good enough? Besides, Senior Dugu even transferred his granddaughter here!"
"Or is there something special about this place that attracts you?"
As Xue Qinghe spoke, he subtly surveyed the area behind the mountain.
It is secluded and quiet, with birds singing and flowers blooming, and lush foliage. The cultivation facilities seem to be all there.
However, the vast open space cleared out in the training ground seemed somewhat out of place; it was probably intended to be used to build a simulated training ground.
Dongfang Yao had a pretty good idea of Xue Qinghe's purpose in coming here.
That's why she had an even better excuse.
She feigned surprise and exclaimed, "Oh! Brother Xue, you already know?"
"Hi... Tian Dou Royal Academy is great, but I've decided to listen to my brother."
"Wherever my brother goes, Yao'er will follow!"
