Zhu Juntang could not help sitting up straighter. After all, Yan Qingcheng's bosom was merely average; it was not nearly as fun as pinning that orange cat called Saintess to the ground and rolling it around while tormenting it.
All along, Zhu Juntang had treated Yan Qingcheng and Bai Hui somewhat differently, even though both were classmates she had met after entering Xiangtan University.
For one thing, Bai Hui and she were both fairies. Their interests, hobbies, and tastes were similar, and they both wanted to get something from Liu Chang'an, so they had more in common.
For another, Bai Hui never paid attention to Zhu Juntang's studies. She was the sheep-and-bear sort of bad friend, and Zhu Juntang always had a great time playing with Bai Hui.
Most importantly, Yan Qingcheng was not easy to control and did not particularly listen to Zhu Juntang. Even if she was worth cultivating, she would become someone like Zhong Qing in the future—someone who liked making decisions on her own.
Just because Yan Qingcheng did not have a patron like Zhong Qing did, that did not mean Liu Chang'an could not become Yan Qingcheng's patron. After all, Liu Jianshe Professor's other adopted daughter might very well be Yan Qingcheng, whom he was about to acknowledge.
It was simply still left vague on the surface, neither stated nor clarified. Yan Huaye was also not like her mother, who had shamelessly sacrificed her looks and sold out her daughter first in order to secure a place in the cold palace.
A place in the cold palace was still a place in the harem! Those outside the establishment could not even get through the palace gates... Just look at Bai Hui!
For those reasons, Zhu Juntang had not really tried to toy with Yan Qingcheng
