"Right, Dai Yao, someone from the Star Luo Empire is waiting here for you."
After Ferdinand left, Ning Rongrong glanced at Zhu Zhuqing, then softly reminded him.
Dai Yao was a little puzzled and asked, "Who is it?"
But Ning Rongrong did not answer directly. Instead, she gave Dai Yao a deep look and said, "Come with me. Zhuqing, you come too."
Dai Yao was completely at a loss. In the Star Luo Empire, he basically had no old friends. Aside from Uncle Dai Hengyu and Ye Nantian, everyone else was his enemy. He glanced at Zhu Zhuqing, nodded, then followed Ning Rongrong toward a house.
When they reached the door, Ning Rongrong stopped and turned to Dai Yao.
"This is it. You'll know who it is once you go in."
Dai Yao knocked on the door. The door opened, and when he saw the person inside clearly, he and Zhu Zhuqing exchanged a glance, both seeing the surprise in each other's eyes. Only then did they understand why Ning Rongrong had called Zhu Zhuqing along as well. Zhu Zhuqing asked uncertainly, "Sister Zhuyue?"
After so many years, Zhu Zhuyue had fully grown into herself, and her appearance had changed quite a bit. Her graceful body was still fiery, but her bearing was completely different from back then.
Back then, she had been alluring and seductive, like a blooming poppy, able to easily stir up desire in others. But now, she was dressed rather plainly, and had deliberately concealed her looks, as though she did not want outsiders to see her.
Seeing Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Yao, she looked Dai Yao over a few more times, then returned to that expressionless, deathly stillness.
"Please come in."
Zhu Zhuyue spoke faintly.
Dai Yao was somewhat puzzled, not understanding Zhu Zhuyue's reason
