This reason was irresistible. Ye Xiyue knew that Pei Qingyu was still a little worried about her, so she persisted.
But she couldn't say that she didn't decide on the house on impulse, but that Emperor Shitian personally selected a few places, asked Senior Song Zheng to check them one by one, and finally let her make the decision.
She coughed lightly and agreed.
…
The streets were obviously much livelier than before.
People come and go, and strong people gather.
Ye Xiyue and Pei Qingyu were walking on the street and attracted the attention of many people.
Firstly, Pei Qingyu is well-known in Lanling City, and secondly, Ye Xiyue's appearance is really eye-catching.
Ye Xiyue has long been accustomed to such looks, and usually doesn't take it to heart.
But today... something seems different.
These people looked at her and Pei Qingyu with a hint of fear.
Pei Qingyu also noticed this and frowned slightly.
After walking for a while, Ye Xiyue finally turned her head and asked in a low voice: "Senior brother, do you feel..."
She didn't finish the rest of her words, but Pei Qingyu understood what she meant.
He nodded slightly.
After coming back, he stayed at the mansion, worrying about his grandfather's health and preparing for the hunting competition. He didn't understand the situation outside.
But now it seems that something is obviously not right.
He thought for a while and asked: "The time my junior sister left the house before, was this the case?"
"Nothing."
Ye Xiyue shook her head, thought of something again, and added,
"But there weren't that many people on the street that time, and...not many recognized me."
The reason why she said this was because she had heard many people whispering about her identity.
"That woman is..."
"Being so beautiful and traveling with Pei Qingyu, it must be her!"
"...Really...I don't know exactly..."
It was a mess. She listened for a while but didn't quite understand it.
But one thing is certain: she was indeed not recognized by anyone when she went out before, but today, it seems that it was because she saw her and Pei Qingyu together...
Ye Xiyue is not someone who would comment or comment outside the world, but she really doesn't like this feeling of not knowing the situation.
Pei Qingyu obviously also wanted to know. When he passed a corner, he stood still, turned around and waved to the two young men who were gathering together and whispering something.
"What were you talking about just now? Why don't you come over and say it, we want to hear it too."
The two men thought their voices were quiet enough, but they were suddenly startled when Pei Qingyu shouted.
It could be seen that their backgrounds were ordinary and their strength was no better than that of Pei Qingyu. Facing this battle, they naturally became nervous. After struggling for a while, they walked over cautiously.
"Second Young Master Pei..."
The two of them said hello, and then their eyes turned slightly and fell on Ye Xiyue beside them.
From a distance, this woman looks extremely beautiful from back to profile. Now, looking at her from a close distance, she looks even more...
Both of them looked away in a panic, very reserved.
Pei Qingyu didn't want to waste time and urged: "Huh?"
His tone was as gentle as ever, but it made the two of them shiver unconsciously.
The one on the left was the first to speak, unable to hold on, and stammered:
"No, it's nothing...just...I think Miss Ye is very powerful..."
Ye Xiyue was startled and raised her hand to point to herself: "What's wrong with me?"
