To the eternal you

Ms. Shenli invited them into the relatively warm back room. Perhaps the aroma of the hot pot dilutes the awkward atmosphere.

When Miss Shenli warmly greeted His Highness to sit down and went to fetch the bowls and chopsticks, Paimeng still tapped Ying, asking her to say more good things later, at least not to make him angry anymore.

At the same time, he took a cautious look at Miss Shen He, leaned over to Ying and asked.

"Could it be that Liu Yun borrowed Feng Zhenjun to become this?"

"That's the tutor." Shen He turned his head and replied calmly.

"Huh! It's actually the apprentice of Zhenjun Liuyun Borrowing the Wind, I thought you were transformed by her~ After all, Miss Shen He looks like a fairy!"

"Really..." Shen He didn't hate being treated as a fairy as much as before. The little guy in front of her had pure kindness, she could feel it, and...if she was praised for being similar to True Monarch Liuyun Borrowing Wind , she will be happy.

"Sister Shen He is still my little mother's senior sister!" His Highness said braggingly.

However, Paimeng was a little surprised. He looked back and forth between Shen He and His Highness, and patted his head in confusion.

"Although I know that the little mother His Royal Highness is talking about is Qibao, it's really hard to imagine that Qibao's senior sister will come to Daozao."

"Why do you say that?" Shen He stared at Paimon calmly. The oppressive feeling of traveling in the mountains in the past made her hide behind Ying Ying in fright, and replied after deliberation: "After all, don't most immortals know how to wait for you?" Is it in Xianjiadongtian? When we left Daoqi, Zhenjun Liuyun Borrowing Wind didn’t come to see us off...Uh! I don’t mean to blame Zhenjun Liuyun Borrowing Wind!”

Ying patted the white-haired dumpling helplessly, and explained for Shen He who was still puzzled.

"What Paimeng wants to say is why did you take the initiative to come to Dao's wife to find Qi?"

Linghua also came to the table with gentle steps and knelt down, seeming a little curious.

Shen He just remained silent for a while, seeing her expressionless face, Paimeng thought he had caused trouble, so he quickly waved his little hand and said, "Well, why don't we eat hot pot first? After all, there is no such thing as cold hot pot." Even worse food!"

"It's actually Master's order." Shen He said softly, but also showed a little embarrassment. She didn't know if it was the red light from the hot pot, or what happened. There was a slight blush on her cheeks, and she He brushed his hair from the sideburns, as if he was thinking about how to say something better.

"Master once said that the way of immortality does not have to be proved in Xuxuan. Only by contemplating the myriad transformations of the world and understanding the cause and effect of the world of mortals can one realize the true nature."

"Could it be..." Paimeng showed a "no way" expression, "Miss Shen He also likes to pray...?"

Miss Shenli at the side had a slightly subtle expression, and at the same time stretched out her hand to cover the ears of the little highness, which attracted the little girl who was gnawing on the vegetable leaves for a moment, then smiled at her and stretched out her tender little hand.

"Ms. Ayaka eats too~"

"Em~Em~"

Not to mention the combination of master and apprentice here, the topic is still going on.

"That's not the case. I don't have that kind of emotion with my junior sister...even, I have never met her even once. The relationship with her is just a one-sided cognitive relationship that the master said and I listened to."

Shen He shook his head, the expression in his eyes didn't waver, but he glanced at the traveler and found her indifferent, he was a little relieved, but soon overwhelmed.

"I came here just to see how wonderful my junior sister is, and I also have some questions I want to ask her...Of course, the master also asked me to talk to my junior sister."

After the words were closed, Shen He put on that inhuman and indifferent look again, but Ying knew that it was just a sign that she was shy and didn't want to talk anymore.

"So that's the case! Qi Bao has a very good heart and will definitely answer for you!" Paimon said enthusiastically.

"Miss Shenhe, I sincerely hope that you will succeed, but..." Miss Shenli hesitated, as if she didn't know whether she should say it or not.

"But it doesn't matter, Miss Shenli." Shen He said in a flat tone.

"Although Paimon and I have been unable to go out these few days, my brother and Thomas have also regularly informed me about the outside world. As far as I know...His Royal Highness has completed the engagement ceremony with the General, if you want to see her, It might be difficult."

It would be better to say that even the current Shenli family has no way to get on line with the other party.

"...Well, this is indeed a problem, but I believe that I will meet my junior sister by chance, and if there is no chance, there is no need to worry."

Shen He's indifferent attitude made Ms. Shenli a little admired, but seeing the distorted appearance of the topic, she said emphatically.

"Speaking of... about the confinement..."

"My confinement has been lifted."

Miss Shenli said with a smile on her face, in Ying's somewhat surprised expression, she seemed to have thought of something, she picked up the folding fan to cover her face and staggered her eyes.

"After all, if you send His Royal Highness back to Shenli's house intact, the pardon issued by the General will take effect immediately. Brother must be working hard on this matter. It has been really hard for him during this time...I have been working hard for him." My worry-free sister settles the matter."

"I'm sorry... for bringing you into this because of my selfishness..."

Ying sincerely apologized, her hands clenched tightly, her knuckles turning white.

Kansato Ayaka looked at her haggard face, and the sadness deep in her heart melted somewhat, but Miss Kansato did not forgive her for this, but asked aloud.

"So, is that all you want to say?"

The atmosphere was cold again, and His Highness pulled Linghua's hand pitifully.

Ying pursed her lips, the light in her eyes dimmed, and said in a low voice, "I will make it up to you."

"How to make up for it?" She pressed on step by step.

"Whatever you think can make up for it, I will do it."

The loss in the traveler's eyes did not escape her observation, and therefore...she no longer hid her face with a folding fan, but stared at her openly.

"Anything is fine?"

"Anything is fine."

"Then I hope you can...sever your relationship with Your Highness Qi."

The girl stared at her closely, not letting go of the slightest change in her expression.

"..." Ying looked at her blankly, and when she subconsciously wanted to refuse, she woke up again, but the guilt in her eyes grew deeper.

"How? Looking at the traveler's appearance, he doesn't seem to be willing." Kamisato Linghua's tone was a little blunt.

"No, I promise you." Ying shook her head decisively.

This made Miss Shenli's eyebrows and eyes softer, and even the few flakes of frost stained on the edge of the table disappeared.

"That's good...I trust you to do it, and I'm willing to forgive you."

After finishing speaking in an inexplicable tone, Kanli Ayaka also changed back to her previous gentle and polite appearance, but everyone has never forgotten the previous confrontation, only the traveler remained taciturn from the beginning to the end.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Qi stood under the cherry tree, the night had fallen, but she did not go back, and Yae Shenzi stood side by side with her.

"Qi, although I have asked you many times before, but... this should be the last time, do you really intend to do this?"

Her expression was a little heavy, and she didn't have the slightest playful mood in the past.

"Well. Because this is something I have decided on, and I will give the answer when I decide..."

The girl looked at the city under the night, dotted with human lights.

"If the two are together, then neither side will exist anymore, and that will be me."

She whispered, as if trying to convince herself.
