"Little girl, we have something to ask you." As soon as she returned home, Qingyuan's voice came into her mind.
Maybe she was too focused on the voice in her mind, so she walked straight into the room, leaving Mu Yijie standing alone. The butler looked at the scene where there was no conversation, but Yong Shanling seemed a bit cold. He couldn't help but suspect that the two had quarreled again.
"Butler, ask Manager Fang to bring me the company's recent reports and projects to the study."
After Mu Yijie finished speaking, he also went to the study. He felt that she had something on her mind. If she was willing to tell him one day, he would listen. He didn't want to force her.
As soon as the door closed, Qingyuan and Qingsui landed in front of her, while Qingsui was still lying on the sofa, slowly drinking wine from a wine cup.
"Little girl, I'm curious. What exactly happened at that auction, and why did you spend so much money to buy us?"
Yong Shanling thought for a while and said.
"Actually, that day, there was a man called the Sect Master who also wanted to buy you, and he used some despicable means, so Cruz was also abducted by them."
"Now... there is a rumor in the market that if you absorb the lives of spirit beasts and humans, you can ascend to heaven. So there is a trafficking group that does such things. If we want to stop their actions, we must give them five extremely powerful spirit beasts."
"But we have never come into contact with extremely powerful spirit beasts, and by coincidence, you appeared on the black market. We also wanted to buy you to explore the way in the Misty Forest."
"Well... the plan is good, but I'm afraid we won't enter the Misty Forest in this lifetime." Qingsui put down the wine cup in his hand, sat up lazily, and looked at her.
"What do you mean?"
Qingyuan looked at her embarrassedly: "Because we sneaked out of the Misty Forest because we were naughty. There is an unwritten rule in the Misty Forest. As long as you don't go back for ten years, you will be removed from the list."
"Because there are some secrets in the Misty Forest that cannot be said. If you reveal them easily, the consequences will be unimaginable, and there will be thunder punishment."
"But we are in a contract relationship. You have already made a contract with me. Even if you enter the forest, as long as you hide well, there should be no problem, right?"
"Although the plan is good, people's hearts are unpredictable. I can't help but wonder what some elders think. After all, when people get old, their thoughts become stubborn."
Qingsui gently shook his fan, looking like it had nothing to do with him. Qingyuan was also a bit helpless, but this was also a helpless thing.
"If I must have you follow, this is not a negotiation but an order."
Yong Shanling straightened her face, looking at them with an unshakable look in her eyes. Qingyuan and Qingsui also put away the smiles on their faces. Finally, Qingyuan smiled bitterly.
"Then we must go together. Maybe we have been flattered for hundreds of years, and we can't even see our own position clearly."
Yong Shanling felt a bit sorry when she heard her words: "What I just said... didn't mean that."
Qingyuan smiled and looked at her: "It's okay, little girl. Knowing how to see the facts clearly is also a bright road. When will we set off?"
She raised the corner of her mouth with a smile: "We will set off the day after tomorrow."
"Do you want to take your boyfriend with you?"
When Yong Shanling heard her question, she hesitated in her heart: "I don't know either, but I also want to go with Uncle Shu, but there are too many unknown things in the forest. However, it still depends on what Uncle Shu says."
"Someone is coming. We will leave first." After Qingsui finished speaking, he and Qingyuan returned to the spell.
After a while, there was a knock on the door.
She opened the door and saw Mu Yijie standing outside. He looked at her worriedly: "Are you still feeling unwell?"
She shook her head. When she hesitated whether to say something on her face, Mu Yijie saw her hesitant look and touched her head: "Say it. What's the matter?"
She looked at the big hand on her shoulder. Her heart was a bit warm. She took a deep breath. She didn't know why she was so nervous.
"I decided to go to the Misty Forest the day after tomorrow. Uncle Shu, do you want to go? There are also many unknown existences in the forest. I'm afraid this trip will not be so simple..."
Mu Yijie thought for a while when he heard her words: "Well, I want to accompany you."
Hearing Mu Yijie's answer, she suddenly laughed like a flower. Her eyes were full of joy. Suddenly, she thought of something and ran to the luggage and rummaged through it as if she was looking for something.
Finally, she took out a small white bottle, and then hurriedly ran back to Mu Yijie's side. A thin layer of sweat oozed from her face. Mu Yijie shook his head helplessly and wiped the sweat off her face with a piece of paper.
"Don't be so hasty. I will wait for you."
When she heard this, she couldn't help but burst out laughing. Just like a stone was thrown into the pool, there were ripples of joy on her face.
"I know, Uncle Shu. This is a Spiritual Pill. Although Uncle Shu you don't have spiritual power, but you have a spiritual root, so this Spiritual Pill will also increase some spiritual power for you."
Mu Yijie took the pill in her hand, looked at it and then his sight returned to her: "Recently..."
"Hmm?"
"Recently, how is your body? If your condition is not good, it doesn't matter if you set off later. It's just that it may take a little more time to deal with Wu Shu."
Yong Shanling thought that Mu Yijie was worried that she hadn't recovered because of the rescue a few days ago. She laughed and stood on tiptoe and patted his shoulder: "Don't worry. I'm really okay."
Suddenly, she felt a bit sore in her feet. She accidentally didn't stand firm and fell into a familiar and warm embrace, but her heart suddenly felt a sharp pain.
Mu Yijie hugged her and didn't see the expression on her face. He still joked with her: "It's not even night yet, and you're already eager to throw yourself into my arms?"
Yong Shanling pulled out an unnatural smile. She didn't want Uncle Shu to worry about her anymore.
"Humph, Uncle Shu has started to say such things again. Uncle Shu, go and deal with the company's affairs first. We don't know when we will be able to come out when we go to the Misty Forest."
Mu Yijie saw her shy look and thought it was a bit cute. He pinched her face, laughed and waved his hand, then walked towards the study.
Looking at Mu Yijie's back as he left, there were a lot of cold sweats on her face, and she also looked very uncomfortable. She grabbed the position of her heart and slid down along the wall.
She didn't know why her heart suddenly hurt so much. She felt a feeling of being unable to breathe. After taking a break, her heartbeat gradually stabilized. Some pictures flashed in her mind. She grabbed her head and wanted to remember.
Everything was like the clouds being blown away by the wind. She just saw that smile, a familiar and strange smile...
The smile that belonged to Gu Li...
