Chapter 77: Qian Renxue's Little Thoughts
Aotian and Xiao Wu spent a few days touring Spirit City.
Over these past few days, Bibi Dong had changed the meeting times to the afternoon, and she would almost always didn't wake up until late morning.
Already possessing peerless beauty, her complexion became even rosier, her radiance even more captivating. Every frown, every smile, every move she made exuded infinite charm.
For the past few nights, Aotian had been lost in a tender embrace, unable to extricate himself. Fortunately, he was a dragon, his physique incredibly robust, with his essence regenerating ceaselessly.
That morning, within the Crown Prince's Private Quarters in the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.
Crown Prince Xue Qinghe had just returned from Emperor Xue Ye's Imperial Study.
After the morning court of the Empire concluded, the Crown Prince went to the Imperial Study to receive guidance from the old Emperor, learning how to govern the country.
Upon returning to his Private Quarters, the Crown Prince immediately instructed all guards and palace maids that he would enter Seclusion for Cultivation for one day and would see no one.
The Crown Prince appeared to be in his early twenties, with a tall and imposing figure, standing a full 1.8 meters tall. He was handsome, and he always wore a gentle smile, exuding a refined and elegant temperament that easily garnered good impressions.
After returning to his Room, the smile vanished from the Crown Prince's face, and he sat down somewhat hastily in front of the dressing table.
Reaching up, he peeled off an ultra-thin, soft Mask from his face. The reflection in the mirror was no longer Crown Prince Xue Qinghe; it had completely transformed into another person.
This was a woman, appearing in her early twenties. Her snow-white skin was flawlessly delicate, her nose bridge significantly higher than that of an average woman, and her phoenix eyes were slightly slender. Her peerless beauty carried a hint of imposing Aura.
Such a peerlessly beautiful woman, at first glance, would remind one of a heroine who could rival any man.
This woman was precisely Qian Renxue, executing Spirit Hall's secret mission disguised as the Heaven Dou Empire's First Prince, Xue Qinghe, and successfully becoming the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire.
The next step was to allow Emperor Xue Ye to "naturally" die, after which she could rightfully become the Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire, completing her plan to usurp the country.
After removing the Mask, she immediately stood up, unfastened her Belt, and the noble Crown Prince's attire on her body fell to the ground.
A burst of golden light shimmered around her body. After the light vanished, her formerly flat figure rapidly became more voluptuous, and her hair also turned golden.
She was even a bit taller than Bibi Dong and Gu Yuena, standing a full 1.8 meters. Due to her age, some parts of her body were not as full and mature as Bibi Dong's, but she still stood proudly among her peers.
Her tall and slender figure made her beautiful legs exceptionally captivating, and her overall proportions were like the golden ratio, perfect and flawless.
She gazed intently at herself in the mirror, her eyes reflecting satisfaction, pride, and also shyness.
"He always used to come around this time," she thought. "He should be arriving soon now, right?" A touch of anticipation stirred in her heart.
As she thought this, her heart grew even more bashful. She felt as if a pair of eyes were secretly watching her, causing her delicate body to tense, her heartbeat to quicken, and her skin, smooth as white jade, slowly turned pink.
Unfortunately, she stood there for several minutes, but the person she was anticipating did not appear.
Disappointment flickered across her face. She sighed, then chided herself, "Qian Renxue, how can you have such shameless thoughts? He's your Sister Dong'er's man, your brother-in-law!"
"Yes, he's my brother-in-law." Qian Renxue gave a self-deprecating smile, then took out her female attire and began to put it on.
A moment later, a golden Palace Gown appeared on her. The gown was a single piece, perfectly accentuating her slender figure. Its style was classic and elegant, and within its golden standing collar was her snow-white, graceful neck.
Her long golden hair cascaded loosely down her back, and a noble Aura seemed to emanate from her very core.
At this moment, in terms of temperament, she surprisingly resembled the Pope even more than Bibi Dong.
After restoring her True Form, she sat down on the stool, quietly waiting for that man's arrival.
...
Inside Spirit City, Aotian had just finished breakfast with Bibi Dong, Xiao Wu, and Hu Liena.
Bibi Dong said, "Aotian, Xue'er should be finished now. Go and pick her up."
"Alright." Aotian stood up, his body vanishing into thin air as he headed for Heaven Dou City.
"Sister Dong'er, who is Xue'er again?" Xiao Wu asked curiously.
"Your braids are a bit messy," Bibi Dong said dotingly. "Come over here, big sister will help you re-braid them."
Xiao Wu moved a stool and obediently sat down in front of Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong continued, "You should call her Sister Xue'er. She is the daughter of Spirit Hall's previous Pope and is currently out on a mission. Every year on her birthday, Aotian goes to pick her up."
"Oh, I see," Xiao Wu said. "So today is Sister Xue'er's birthday."
"Sister Dong'er, you're so kind! You're the second person to braid my hair."
"Who was the first?"
"My mom."
...
Inside the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, Aotian's figure materialized behind Qian Renxue.
"Xiao Xue'er, I've come to pick you up."
Qian Renxue's delicate body trembled slightly, and a look of extreme surprise and delight appeared on her face. But she quickly forced this surprise to subside.
When she turned around, she had already composed herself, a faint smile on her face as she said, "Why are you a little late today?"
Aotian smiled, "I was just having breakfast with Dong'er. Did I make you wait long?"
So he was with her for breakfast. Qian Renxue felt a little disappointed, but she quickly said, "I didn't wait long."
Aotian nodded, his gaze lingering on Qian Renxue as he couldn't help but exclaim, "Our Xiao Xue'er is truly getting more and more beautiful! I wonder which man will be fortunate enough in the future to marry such a pretty wife like you."
Qian Renxue pouted her small mouth and said, "I won't marry anyone."
"Unless..." she added silently in her heart.
"How can you not marry?" Aotian said with a smile. "If you ever find a man you like, just tell me. No matter how difficult, I'll make sure you get him."
"Really?" Qian Renxue's eyes sparkled slightly.
"Really. When has your Brother Ao Tian ever lied to you?"
"Then I'll tell you once I find someone I like," Qian Renxue said with a bright smile, affectionately linking arms with Aotian. "Brother Ao Tian, let's go."
In her heart, she couldn't help but recall the time she first met Aotian. It was when she was nine years old; her Imperial Father had been killed by her mother, and then her mother had committed suicide by poison. That was the darkest time of her life.
Later, Aotian and Bibi Dong appeared, taking care of her and comforting her, allowing her to emerge from the darkness.
She had spent several years with Aotian, evolving from initial admiration to the innocent liking of a young girl.
After that, she came to the Heaven Dou Empire to carry out a mission, and her time with Aotian became less. Yet, that affection in her heart was like fine wine; the more it settled, the richer it became.
Lovesickness became a kind of affliction for her. Throughout the year, only those few times she spent with Aotian were her happiest moments.
But this man was Sister Dong'er's man. Therefore, she could only bury this love deep in her heart.
Perhaps, she truly had to spend her entire life alone...
When Aotian appeared with Qian Renxue in front of Bibi Dong and the others, Bibi Dong immediately stood up happily.
"Xue'er, you're back."
Qian Renxue smiled, "Sister Dong'er, I'm back."
She warmly embraced Bibi Dong, then her gaze fell upon the charming young girl standing beside Bibi Dong.
