Chapter 163 Dream Lotus

Sang Qing immediately guessed that Jun Xinyue was talking about Youfei. Recalling what happened last time, she couldn't help but chuckle and explained, "He's not my bodyguard, but Shi Ying's right-hand man. He should be going to get the drinks now."

As she spoke, Sang Qing pulled Shi Ying up from behind and gave her a very brief introduction.

"Time Shadow".

It was mainly introduced to Jun Xinyue. Jiang Zhiyi had met Shi Ying before, so there was no need to say more.

Jun Xinyue nodded casually as a greeting, her every gesture exuding a touch of royal dignity.

Jiang Zhiyi also called over her "beast husband" and formally introduced him to Sang Qing and Shi Ying: "Yuan Shao, my concubine, is in business. You can contact him in the catering and hotel industries."

Jiang Zhiyi gave a more detailed introduction, smiled and winked at Sang Qing, then said the last sentence in a very open and straightforward manner.

Yuan Shao was the same male that Sang Qing had met at the mall last time. He bowed to Sang Qing gratefully.

He turned to look at Jiang Zhiyi with a gentle and warm expression, and it was obvious without even guessing whose child Jiang Zhiyi was carrying.

Sang Qing's gaze swept over Jiang Zhiyi's lower abdomen and then lingered on her face.

He seems to be in pretty good shape.

She was still young and not yet showing, her figure remained slender and graceful.

In the original owner's memory, it didn't seem to be that difficult for females in the beast world to give birth.

Moreover, females have a higher status in the animal world, and naturally, social resources in all aspects are more inclined towards females.

Female fertility is much better now than in her time.

They don't need to take care of the baby themselves after giving birth.

Therefore, pregnancy is not a very troublesome thing for females.

Just like Jiang Zhiyi, she was in a great mood even though she was pregnant, and went out for afternoon tea without being affected at all.

After exchanging a few greetings, the three of them went into the pavilion in the garden together.

Big Bear brought over lemon tea and snacks.

Sang Qing picked up a cup from someone and handed it to them, asking, "Why are you here? Where's Youfei?"

Xiong Da subconsciously looked back and saw a figure quickly disappear at the end of the garden.

Indeed, Sang Qing saw it too.

Jun Xinyue held the glass straw with an air of refinement, gently grinding it, her beautiful eyebrows slightly raised.

Xiong Dahan scratched his head and honestly confessed: "When Deputy Regiment Commander You walked to the door, he suddenly asked me to help see him off, saying that he had something to do, but he didn't explain clearly."

Sang Qing understood, waved his hand, and told Xiong Da to go down first.

He probably saw Jun Xinyue and Jiang Zhiyi and remembered the drama from last time, so he made an excuse to slip away.

"Should I call him back?" Xiong Da asked hesitantly.

Sang Qing waved her hand, "No need, you can go now."

Jiang Zhiyi was already sitting sideways in the wicker chair, peering around at the sea of ​​flowers. "Qingqing, you have quite a complete selection of rose varieties here. Can I pick some to take back to my husband?"

“This…” Sang Qing hesitated.

Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any problem picking some of the flowers in the garden.

But these weren't planted by her.

Sang Qing called Xiong Da over and whispered a few instructions in his ear.

Xiong Da hesitated for a moment, then nodded seriously and jogged downstairs.

A short while later, Xiong Da returned, bringing with him flower-picking scissors and a flower basket.

Sang Qing breathed a slight sigh of relief, took the tools from Xiong Da, and looked at Jiang Zhiyi: "Do you need me to call someone to help you?"

"No need, I can do it myself. It's a gift, and the ones I pick myself show my sincerity." Jiang Zhiyi put down her lemon tea and carried the basket into the sea of ​​flowers.

Putting aside the gossip for now, it seems Jiang Zhiyi and her husband have a pretty good relationship. Because of Jiang Wanwan, the original owner still has some impression of Jiang Zhiyi's husband in her memories.

I heard it was arranged by her family. She's much older than Jiang Zhiyi, works in politics, and holds a high-ranking position.

One is in politics, the other in business; indeed, marriages in wealthy families always have some significance.

Sang Qing turned around, waved the remaining basket, and asked Jun Xinyue, "Do you want to pick some?"

Jun Xinyue crossed her legs, rested one hand on the railing, and sipped her lemon tea: "I can pass through a sea of ​​flowers without a single petal clinging to me."

Okay, I'll politely decline.

"Then make yourself at home. There's nothing fun here, just some snacks. Eat whatever you like."

Sang Qing pushed the peach blossom cakes that Shi Ying had made towards her, saying, "These are delicious."

Jun Xinyue wasn't particularly interested in food, but she still took a piece to show her appreciation and found it surprisingly delicious.

Jun Xinyue chewed a few more times and commented:
"It's a bit like the Mermaid's Dream Lotus, but not quite, the scent is wrong."

"Baby, have you ever tasted the Dream Lotus of the Mermaid Clan?"

Sang Qing had never heard of the Dream Lotus and shook his head.

Such incomprehensible names usually indicate either high-end goods that she can't afford or some kind of bizarre or incomprehensible cuisine.

“The palace has them, I’ll bring them for you next time,” Jun Xinyue said generously.

Sang Qing didn't stand on ceremony and readily agreed.

Of all things in the world, only delicious food should not be missed.

"But yours is delicious too. The aroma of the Dream Lotus is a bit stronger. It's a blend of the unique fragrance of mermaids and the Moon-Gazing Lotus found only in the deep sea."

After finishing the whole pastry, Jun Xinyue, mindful of her upbringing, didn't take a second piece but instead grabbed a strawberry from the side.

The two chatted casually, waiting for Jiang Zhiyi to return after picking flowers.

In his spare time, Sang Qing took some pastries to feed the little bluebird.

Actually, the little bluebird goes out to find food on its own, so she doesn't need to worry about it. She just feeds it when she remembers.

Sang Qing broke the pastry into smaller pieces and put them into the little bluebird's food box.

Sang Qing noticed that the little bluebird was unusually quiet today, and didn't chirp when it saw her.

"You also keep birds?"

Jun Xinyue strolled over leisurely, but noticed something amiss when she saw the little bird in the cage.

After staring at it for a long time, he blurted out, "Cangyun?"

"Cangyun?" Sang Qing repeated, looking at Jun Xinyue with a puzzled expression, then turning to look at the little blue bird.

The little bluebird stopped pecking at its food, looked up at Jun Xinyue, and its tiny eyes darted around as if it were thinking about something.

Jun Xinyue crossed her arms. "Although I am female and my perception of aura is not as strong as that of males, we both possess the bloodline of the phoenix. You don't think I won't recognize you just because you've shrunk, do you?"

The little blue bird seemed to pause for a moment, then flew out of the cage and landed, transforming into an adult man.

He was dressed in a black outfit suitable for movement, with short, dark blue hair that matched his beast-like appearance, and a simple silver earring on one ear.

"Miss Sang Qing." Cang Yun first bowed respectfully to Sang Qing, then turned to Jun Xinyue, "Your Highness."

When Jun Xinyue saw that he performed the special clan ceremony for Sang Qing, but only the ordinary aristocratic etiquette for her, her eyes became meaningful.

Leaning back against the pillar, I calmly prepared to see what was going on.

Sang Qing was still in shock. She pointed at Cang Yun, then looked back at the cage.

"You, Little Bluebird? Azure Cloud?"

It's no wonder she was surprised; the difference between the tiny blue bird, no bigger than a palm, and the enormous eagle beast that could carry two or three people was simply too great.

"Yes." Cangyun nodded calmly, his expression compliant.
