Opening Up

"You brat, this is the study, don't mess around!" Qian Renxue was startled when she saw the burning look in Lu Yuan's eyes. She was all too familiar with that look in the brat's eyes.

The last time he ate me in the hotel in Suotuo City, that was the same look in his eyes—burning and full of aggression.

"Oh, so Xue'er, you mean we can do whatever we want outside the study?" Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow and said, "Then shall we go to your bedroom now?"

Lu Yuan carried Qian Renxue, looking like he was about to leave.

"Hey, you rascal, wait a minute!" Seeing this, Qian Renxue quickly spoke up, and Lu Yuan slowly stopped in his tracks.

"What's wrong, Xue'er? Is there any other problem?" Lu Yuan asked in a low voice.

"It's still broad daylight, it's not convenient. Let's wait until tonight!" Qian Renxue said softly, her face Sisi flushed.

To be honest, since her intimate moment with Lu Yuan, so much time has passed, and she has been missing him a lot. But being a girl, she's too shy to say it.

"Then let's wait until tonight!" Looking at Qian Renxue's blushing expression, Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile slightly. He didn't mean it that way in the first place. After all, this was a study, and it was broad daylight. It wasn't the time to do that kind of thing. He just wanted to tease Qian Renxue, but he didn't expect Xue'er to say something like that.

It seems that Qian Renxue, having been separated from him for so long, still misses that kind of thing.

Seeing the slightly mischievous smile on Lu Yuan's face, Qian Renxue had a flash of inspiration and instantly understood Lu Yuan's thoughts. She couldn't help but punch Lu Yuan in embarrassment and annoyance, "You jerk, you tricked me again."

This jerk clearly didn't mean anything by it, yet he still managed to scare her, making her blurt out those words without thinking. For a moment, Qian Renxue felt a little embarrassed; she had actually brought up that thing for tonight—it was so incredibly embarrassing.

That jerk is absolutely wicked.

She immediately looked at Lu Yuan with reproachful eyes.

Despite being punched by Qian Renxue, Lu Yuan wasn't annoyed. He just chuckled to himself, "Xue'er, don't forget what you said!"

"Hmph!" Qian Renxue gave a haughty snort and turned her head slightly to the side.

"Okay, don't be angry. I came here with a gift for you."

As Lu Yuan spoke, he sat down on a chair to the side, placed Qian Renxue his lap, and put his left arm around her waist, letting her lean against him.

"What gift? Give it to me!" Upon hearing Lu Yuan say that he had a gift for her, Qian Renxue immediately stretched out her delicate hand and placed it in front of Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan smiled, gently grasped Qian Renxue's hand with his right hand, and kneaded it lightly, asking, "Xue'er, you've been stuck at the bottleneck of level 59 for several months now, haven't you?"

"Hmm!" Qian Renxue nodded gently. Although she was a peerless genius with full innate level 20 Soul Power, it still took her a certain amount of time to break through from level 59 to 60, the Soul King level, to the Soul Emperor level.

"This gift I'm giving you can help you break through the bottleneck from Soul King to Soul Emperor!" Lu Yuan said.

"Oh?" Qian Renxue was somewhat surprised, blinking her beautiful eyes slightly. Then, as if remembering something, she said, "Did you get the herbs from Dugu Bo?"

"Did Mad Rhino Douluo tell you that?" Lu Yuan asked while gently stroking Qian Renxue's snow-white, soft hand.

"You already know, why ask?" Qian Renxue didn't deny it; instead, she readily admitted it.

"Sigh, I knew this Mad Rhino Douluo was unreliable. He's clearly a spy you planted next to me, watching what I'm doing all the time," Lu Yuan sighed softly.

"What's wrong? Are you angry?" Qian Renxue gently stroked Lu Yuan's face and said, "You brat, I really didn't mean to spy on you. I just sometimes can't help but want to know what you're doing. After all, you're not around me often, and I can only find out a little about you through Mad Rhino Douluo."

"I'm not angry, I'm not that petty. I just don't like being watched. Besides, Mad Rhino Douluo is your grandfather's man after all. Xue'er, to be honest, don't be angry, but I don't really like your grandfather. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even bother to look at him."

As Lu Yuan spoke, he kept an eye on Qian Renxue's expression.

Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Qian Renxue fell silent for a moment, her hand stroking Lu Yuan's cheek paused slightly, and she looked at Lu Yuan with a complicated expression in her beautiful eyes.

"Xue'er, are you angry?" Lu Yuan raised his right hand slightly, grasped Qian Renxue's small hand again, and asked softly.

"I'm not angry!" Under Lu Yuan's gaze, Qian Renxue slowly shook her head. She straightened up slightly, cupped Lu Yuan's cheeks in her hands, and said, "You brat, promise me one thing, okay?"

"Tell me, I'll agree to anything I can do," Lu Yuan said sincerely.

"I know my grandfather may have done some things wrong, but he is still my grandfather. He raised me from childhood, cared for me, loved me, and treated me with utmost care."

"You brat, if you and he have any disagreements in the future, could you please give way a little for my sake? After all, one of you is my only family member, and the other is my only love. I really don't want to see you fighting each other one day."

"You brat, will you promise me?"

Qian Renxue stared intently at Lu Yuan, her eyes filled with anticipation and her pretty face pleading.

Seeing Qian Renxue's pleading expression, Lu Yuan smiled slightly and said, "I promise you, Xue'er, I will try my best to restrain myself. As long as your grandfather doesn't cross my bottom line, no matter what the circumstances, I will take the initiative to back down when I encounter him, okay?"

"Thank you, you rascal!" Qian Renxue's eyes were filled with emotion as she threw herself into Lu Yuan 'Lu Yuan arms, her pretty face pressed tightly against his cheek.

Lu Yuan gently patted Qian Renxue's back, his Double Pupils flashing with a divine light.

He would naturally not want to cause trouble for Qian Daoliu, but he was afraid that one day his relationship with Gu Yuena would be exposed, especially if the gods found out that Gu Yuena was the Silver Dragon King. At that time, there might be a conflict between him and Qian Daoliu.

After all, the blood feud between gods and Soul Beast is not so easily resolved. Perhaps a god will descend to the mortal realm and kill Gu Yuena.

To protect Gu Yuena, Lu Yuan is destined to become an enemy of the Divine Realm.

As a being of the highest rank in the Divine Realm, the Angel God might also be an enemy of Lu Yuan. As the Angel God's messenger, Lu Yuan might very well Qian Daoliu.

However, this is just one guess. It is also possible that by the time Qian Renxue becomes a god, Gu Yuena's identity will not yet be known to the Divine Realm. At that time Qian Daoliu will have already passed away, so there will be no so-called contradiction.

Therefore, agreeing to Qian Renxue's concession would actually be harmless.
