A life of clearness

Chapter 611 Just a Little Like

Rong Qing, who had her back to Yuan Cheng, suddenly felt her face darken.

Ji Hui had reminded her before that Rong Qing was not someone who had never experienced love, she just didn't want to think in that direction.

In fact, she had felt uneasy since Donglin Zong Xingzou and the others left, so her words later were meant to test her. Rong Qing had regretted it since she proposed the marriage. These words were really abrupt and offensive to the other party. Even though she pretended to be serious on the surface.

If the other party is not interested, this temptation will seem so mean and dirty.

If the other party is interested...

Rong Qing sighed in her heart. Now it was Yuan Cheng's turn to take over. She really didn't expect that the usually reserved His Highness Yuan Cheng could express his feelings so directly.

This put Rong Qing in a dilemma.

She didn't have so many romantic thoughts, so she couldn't help but worry about her situation in Donglin Sect.

She couldn't respond to Yuan Cheng, who held a core position in Donglin Sect.

Rong Qing suddenly realized that she was in an awkward and dangerous position.

She saw Donglin Sect's acceptance of her as an opportunity, but all the resources were given too smoothly and too much. Although Rong Qing thought she was worthy, she still subconsciously ignored some details... In fact, Yuan Cheng had been partial to her since a long time ago, whether it was the inheritance quota or escorting her time and time again.

Outsiders can see it, but Rong Qing, is it true that she is unaware of it?

There is no chance of luck now. Rong Qing smiled bitterly in her heart.

Without giving her time to think of a way to respond, Yuan Cheng said again: "I like you."

I like you.

Just this simple sentence forced Rong Qing to stop in her tracks.

She was almost sweating on her back.

Countless thoughts flashed through my mind, but like the wind, I couldn't grasp anything.

The white-robed swordsman lowered his eyes and asked softly, "Can you like me a little bit?"

Rong Qing clenched her hands, which were half hidden in her sleeves, into fists.

Being asked this question, she could no longer pretend she didn't hear it and not answer.

Rong Qing took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind, but what she said was: "Your Highness, please allow me to think about it for a while."

Yuan Cheng raised his eyes and stared at the back of the black-clothed female cultivator who was almost fleeing in panic.

He is not stupid...How can it be considered love if it requires time to consider?

When someone who was fleeing stepped into the teleportation array, a voice was heard at the same time.

"Where are you going, Your Highness? Did you come up with a plan so quickly?"

Even before leaving to visit other fellow practitioners, Donglin Sect's Xingzou still paid part of his attention to this place and was a little surprised that Rong Qing wanted to leave in such a hurry.

Where to go? Yes, to find someone. Rong Qing came back to his senses, frowned and thought for a moment, then replied: "I want to visit the young master of Tongfu Chamber of Commerce, His Highness Song."

"Oh? Do you have an appointment with Song?" "No," Rong Qing shook her head, "I just wanted to visit her on a whim. If she doesn't want to see me, I'll just go around."

It would be rude to interrupt without permission, but fortunately Song was of the same generation as Rong Qing, so there was no need to be too particular. If one were to visit Daojun Yanlu, one would definitely have to send a visiting card and wait for the other party's consent before visiting.

"Just come over. The three of us are here with Song. I just asked her, and she said she wanted to get to know you."

The Donglin Sect's followers were also there. Rong Qing was shocked, but her expression calmed down visibly, and she no longer showed her emotions.

The interruption by the Donglin Sect Leader woke her up from her panic. What had happened had already happened, and the only solution now was to slightly change her strategy.

Rong Qing put Yuan Cheng's matter aside for the time being, and instead took advantage of this opportunity of the princes of various forces gathering together to meet people who were worth meeting with a clear goal.

Her primary target is Song.

"When you, Yu Rong, broke through the ninth level, I happened to be busy and couldn't witness it in person. But my brother was there at the time, and his ability to comprehend the origin of the Dao is much stronger than mine. When he came back and told me about it, he was full of praise for you." Song smiled and said, "He is naturally aloof, and it can be seen that you are really capable. I have always wanted to meet you, but I never had a good opportunity. I didn't expect that this time you would not restrict me to cultivation talent, and let me join in. It can be said that it is fate that we can get together today."

Song raised his wine cup and drank it first.

Rong Qing then took a sip from the wine cup on the table.

"I heard that the young master's ability to comprehend the origin of the Tao is not weak, but in comparison, his talent in business is particularly outstanding, which is why he puts more energy into managing the Chamber of Commerce. If we judge geniuses simply by their ability to comprehend the origin of the Tao, wouldn't that be like knocking everyone down with one stick? To be honest, it's the young master's talent that makes me envy him." This is Rong Qing's true words: "Since becoming the young master of the Chamber of Commerce, Your Highness has eased the years of friction between the Small Creation Realm and the Purple Jade Realm. The five gates opened between the two realms have brought considerable profits to the Tongfu Chamber of Commerce, especially the total trade volume driven by these five gates is more than the total of the past thousand years."

As the main contributor to this event, Song can take 11% of the profits.

What a terrifying number this is. Without worrying about anything else, this project alone can earn her nine-digit Tongbao every year. A cultivator is not like a mortal who only has a short hundred years. Moreover, Song has more than one project in her hands. Whether it is open or hidden, her wealth has reached a very astonishing amount. Even if her own cultivation is not high, the strong people who protect her closely are all Daojun Daozun level.

"If I say it's just luck, I'm afraid I'll be laughed at." Song looked at Rong Qing, his eyes full of understanding: "I felt you were good before I met you, and after meeting you, I found that you are even better than I thought. I rarely feel this way about people, but my feelings are always accurate, so I have to follow my inner thoughts. I'm determined to be your friend. Not for anything else, just because of you."

Rong Qing was coaxed into coughing lightly, suppressing the urge to curl up the corners of her mouth.

"Really? We can definitely get together more often. My brother won't be here. Even if the Sea Eagle wants to challenge us, it won't be my turn. I'm really bored by myself."

"This way it won't be too intrusive..."

"Not at all." Song blinked. "You can stay at my place for one night."

"Hmm?" Donglin Zongxing was sharp-minded and looked back and forth between Song and Rong Qing in an inquiring manner.

"Is it not possible?" Song Wei opened his eyes slightly and looked towards Donglin Zong's walker expectantly.

His fingers tapped lightly on the table.

"Young Master, you think we old men are boring."

Song Mingming didn't respond to this question: "Anyway, it depends on what you think, Yu Rong. I'll be ready to welcome you anytime."

Rong Qing did not answer immediately, after all, the Donglin Sect leader on the other side had a scorching gaze.

"I want to learn about your business experience." Rong Qing said truthfully.

"Of course, come find me when you're free." Song promised, "Just tell me if you have any ideas. We can make money together."
