"What's wrong?" asked Madam Jiang, who was sitting next to me.

"Qin He should be waiting for He Shizi at our Marquis's residence." Qin Bi had already figured out what Qin He was doing coming to the Marquis's residence every day, and felt annoyed: "If she can't wait, I'll make her go to the Duke of Yan's residence to find him, so that her hypocrisy will be exposed. But as soon as I arrived, He Shizi also came. Just like Qin He suspected that I stole her good fortune, I also suspected that she had taken advantage of my luck."

Before Jiang could react, Lin, who was sitting on the other side, immediately perked up.

"Oh my god," Lin said with lingering fear, "Could she be like the second aunt of the Marquis of Anyuan's son? Entangled and trying to steal our good fortune. Qin He is the most talented among our generation, she's not easy to deal with."

Seeing Lin's extreme paranoia, Qin Bi's anger dissipated considerably, and she smiled, "No."

Qin Bi glanced at the sky outside and said, "Our Marquis's Mansion has the fortune to protect it. Even if Qin He has some magic treasure, she can't do this. What bothers me is that Qin He can also take away some of the Marquis's Mansion's fortune."

"Well, there's nothing we can do about it." Madam Lin was relieved. As long as Qin He wasn't like the second aunt of the Marquis of Anyuan's son, it would be fine. They would run into each other all the time, and it would be terrible if they were to share in each other's good fortune.

Madam Jiang nodded in agreement: "Qin He is also the daughter of Marquis Qin Yan."

The Marquis's fortune protects the Qin family, and naturally some of it will be shared with Qin He.

Qin Bixin is not a god. Although she is better, she is prone to suspicion. She took a deep breath and sent someone to call Qin Lang. Qin Lang arrived very quickly, coming from the third house to the fourth house courtyard immediately.

In the living room, there was only Qin Bi, Jiang Shi, and Lin Shi. He Shi was not there. Qin Bi was her own child, not an outsider, so He Shi didn't need to take care of her. Jiang Shi and Lin Shi could keep Qin Bi company.

"Sister," Qin Lang called out to his sister, then turned to tease the little dumpling, "Call him Uncle."

"Uncle," the little dumpling called out immediately.

"Hey." Qin Lang gave the little dumpling a few pieces of sweet carrot candy.

"Go and find out," Qin Bi said. "What does Qin He want with Prince He?"

Qin Lang was taken aback: "Young Master He is here!"

Qin Lang immediately went to the front yard. Qin Bi, Jiang Shi, and Lin Shi continued chatting and coaxing the little dumpling. When Qin Lang arrived at the front yard, the Crown Prince Qin and the Crown Prince He were talking, and Qin He was also sitting next to them.

Qin He considered for a moment and said, "Young Master He, I have something to tell you."

Qin Yan and Prince He both looked at Qin He. Prince He got up and went to the courtyard. Qin Yan and a few others were in the small living room, so it was inconvenient to talk. Prince He went to the courtyard, and Qin He followed.

Qin Lang simply sat down on the rock. Prince He saw Qin Lang but ignored him.

"Speak," said Prince He.

Qin He said, "I need high-level demon beast crystals."

Qin Lang, not far away: "......"

"Pah!" Qin Lang cursed inwardly for being shameless.

How could she ask for things so readily? Qin Lang got angry because of Qin He's words. It was all for Rong Yang's sake. The high-level demon beast crystals that Prince He gave to Qin He were all Rong Yang's things.

Rong Yang is too young to be of any use, but it still belongs to Rong Yang!

Qin Yan also came out of the main living room. Qin He didn't see Qin Lang, but Qin Yan did. She walked over, Qin Lang looked up, and Qin Yan leaned against the rock to listen together.

Qin Yan had no other intentions; he was the heir apparent of the Qin family and had to consider the reputation of the Marquis's mansion.

Prince He glanced over in this direction indifferently: "I don't have any high-level demon beast crystals."

Qin He didn't believe it: "How could that be! You are Prince He, a powerful minister."

Prince He didn't mind telling Qin He, "They've all been given to Rong Yang."

Qin He: "..." She had forgotten about that.

Qin He lowered her head, looking aggrieved: "Without the cultivation resources you gave me, I can't cultivate."

Prince He was helpless. Qin He wouldn't leave. Prince He didn't try to coax her. Qin He was just waiting for Prince He to give her other cultivation resources, or at least some cultivation resources.

Prince He, a man of gentle and refined manners, was oblivious to Qin He's feelings and could not understand her thoughts.

"Fu Bao wants to eat high-grade spiritual fruits," Qin He had no choice but to say.

Prince He: "No."

Qin He: "......"

Qin He was about to explode. How could there be nothing? You are a powerful minister! Qin He was about to cry, feeling both angry and aggrieved, but she still stood there stubbornly. Even if she gave the rarest treasures to Rong Yang, she should at least leave some for her.

Qin Lang thought Qin He was being disrespectful. Even if you and Prince He were in love, you were already married and Prince He had children to raise. You were asking others for everything. What were you trying to do?

Qin Yan looked at the rocks, his expression unchanged.

He had no idea that the young lady of the Qin Yan Marquis's mansion had the nerve to ask for cultivation resources.

In this world, there are no such things as a given. Prince He has been good enough to Qin He. He has stopped giving Qin He anything from now on, which is more than enough. There is no reason for Qin He to keep pestering him.

"What if Rong Yang wants to eat high-grade spiritual fruits?" Qin He was unwilling to give up.

Prince He glanced at Qin He indifferently: "It is my own child. Of course I will go to the small space of the demon beast realm to collect for him. I only have Rong Yang as my offspring in this life. No one can compare to him."

Qin He choked. She had the pride of a female protagonist in a cultivation novel. Since Prince He wouldn't give her cultivation resources, Qin He left.

Prince He walked towards Prince Qin and Qin Lang. Qin Lang was about to leave because he had to go back to report, but Prince He called out to Qin Lang, took out a spirit melon from his storage bag, and gave it to Qin Lang.

“The owl is in the Marquis’s residence, isn’t it?” said Prince He. “It was given to him.”

Qin Lang was taken aback, and deliberately asked, "Aren't you going to give it to Qin He? Fu Bao came along too."

Prince He ignored him and left with Qin Yan. "For Qin He and her child?" Prince He scoffed. He had only gotten two spirit melons from the Immortal Sect. He had given one to Rong Yang, and this one was for the little dumpling.

Qin Yan didn't interfere much. If Prince He had extra spirit melons, he could have given them to Qin He, but Prince He clearly didn't intend to. He gave them to the little dumpling but not to Qin He.

It is evident that Qin He and her child were ranked after Rong Yang and Rong Chi.

Qin Yan couldn't understand what Prince He was thinking. Prince He didn't mean to hurt Qin He's feelings. Qin He asked for cultivation resources, and Prince He only said he didn't have any, without refusing her, which saddened Qin He.

But did Prince He really not have it? He just didn't give it to Qin He.

Qin Yan felt that it would be better to simply let Qin He give up.

Qin Lang carried the spirit melon to the fourth room, attracting the attention of many people. The spirit melon was a rare delicacy for the Qin Yan Marquis's family, which had just become a family of cultivators, and it was not common to see it at this time of year.

Back in the fourth room, Qin Lang carried the spirit melon as he entered.

The little dumpling had sharp eyes: "Uncle~"

Qin Bi: "..."

"Look at that sweet talker." Madam Jiang chuckled upon hearing the little voice, and just as she finished praising him, she turned her head and saw Qin Lang holding a fresh spirit melon: "...Hahaha, this child..."

"Where did this magical melon come from?" Lin asked curiously. (End of Chapter)
