"Sister Ju Zi, are you alright?"
Bai Zhou noticed that something was wrong with Ju Zi and thought that Ju Zi had been frightened by him, so he quickly asked Dao about it.
"Ah, no... I'm fine..."
Orange quickly snapped out of her daze, feeling a little guilty, her face inexplicably turning red.
After all, Bai Zhou treated her as a friend, but she was thinking of winning him over, which seemed very impolite...
"By the way, you must be very tired after smuggling yourself here. Let me take you to get something good to eat first." Orange quickly put aside the strange thoughts in her mind and changed the subject.
In her opinion, if she wanted to win Bai Zhou's favor, she had to treat him to a meal; if she wanted to win Bai Zhou's heart, she had to win Bai Zhou's stomach.
As for using her beauty to seduce him... let's put that aside for now. After all, she's currently officially Xu Tianran's person, so it's impossible for her to be openly with Bai Zhou. We'll deal with that later...
"Okay, then Sister Ju Zi will have to spend a lot, I have a big appetite~" Bai Zhou smiled brightly upon hearing this.
"Hmph, I have plenty of money. You can eat as much as you want, it's all on me."
Orange stood up, patted her rather ample chest lightly, and appeared extremely confident, looking every bit like a rich young woman keeping a male model as a mistress.
"Okay, let's go then~"
Bai Zhou smiled slightly, then stood up and followed Ju Zi outside.
Orange seemed very happy and led Bai Zhou directly towards Ming Capital's largest restaurant.
However, Bai Zhou, who was following behind Orange, noticed something and glanced out of the corner of his eye at an inn to his left and behind...
...
Inside an inn.
A middle-aged man looked in the direction where Ju Zi and Bai Zhou had left, his brows furrowed slightly.
" It's really strange that Miss Orange is so quiet with a strange young man..." the middle-aged man muttered to himself, then took out a Microcard and reported what had happened to Xu Tianran.
He was one of Xu Tianran's personal guards, sent to protect Ju Zi and also to prevent men with ulterior motives from getting close to her.
After all, Orange is the woman Your Highness has set its sights on, and she's the future queen! Naturally, they can't let other men defile her, otherwise, if word gets out, Your Highness and even the royal family will lose face.
Of course, Ju Zi must not know that he was following her, and the young man seemed to be Ju Zi's friend, so he could not make a move in front of Ju Zi. He could only act after the two separated.
...
At the same time.
In the Sun Moon Empire's palace, Xu Tianran was sitting in a wheelchair, studying "The Emperor's Mind" when he suddenly noticed a message coming from his Microcard.
He opened it and his face instantly darkened.
He immediately issued the order: [You have one day to find out everything about that young man's background.]
"Orange, oh Orange, when did you make such a good friend? I had no idea..." Xu Tianran narrowed his eyes slightly, a dangerous glint flashing in his dark purple pupils.
Having been with Ju Zi for so long, he naturally knows her personality very well.
With her good looks, Ju Zi attracted many male admirers in the academy.
Even though there were countless outstanding men among them, Orange rejected them without hesitation.
Even when there was a real need, Ju Zi always kept her distance from other boys, never overstepping her bounds in the slightest.
Now, according to the information he received, Ju Zi is getting very close to that young man from who-knows- where, and they talk and laugh without any formality, just like old friends who have known each other for many years. Sometimes they even have some physical contact, which makes them seem extremely intimate!
This made him somewhat unable to tolerate it.
Oranges are his exclusive property, and he will never allow anyone else to take them away from him!
When Xu Tianran thought of this, the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed, and he even had an impulse to kill that bastard right now!
"Call--"
Xu Tianran took a deep breath and slowly calmed himself down.
While his actions were inexplicable, if that person was truly just a regular friend of Orange's, and he killed them, it could very well provoke Orange's resentment...
Moreover, he, the esteemed Titled Douluo, is also the Empire If the Crown Prince were to personally kill an ordinary Spirit Master, his political enemies would certainly make a big deal out of it, which would have a significant impact on him.
"Forget it, let's wait until Number Seven has investigated the other party's information first."
Xu Tianran suppressed his anger, leaned back in his chair, and closed his eyes to wait.
...
...
Mingyue Restaurant.
This is the most luxurious restaurant in the Sun Moon Empire, a hundred stories high, and one of the tallest buildings in the Sun Moon Empire.
In a luxurious private room for two, Orange and Bai Zhou sat facing each other, with the table in front of them filled with various rare delicacies from the Sun Moon Empire.
Bai Zhou ate and drank recklessly, completely disregarding his image.
If an ordinary person ate like this on a date, it would definitely leave a very bad impression on the woman.
But if there's already a positive impression, the other person will only see the positive aspects.
"No wonder you cultivate so quickly, it seems being able to eat a lot is a skill too~" Orange said with a smile while serving Bai Zhou some food.
Her gaze toward Bai Zhou was filled with envy and admiration.
Bai Zhou was simply too outstanding, which made her unable to help but feel a little tempted.
If she weren't worried about Xu Tianran causing trouble for Bai Zhou, she might have confessed her feelings right now...
"To be honest, a large part of my strength comes from what I eat."
Bai Zhou took a tissue, wiped his mouth, and said in a serious tone, "Dao. "
After all, his Body Refining The Cultivation Technique requires a large amount of Heaven and Earth Treasure; otherwise, it wouldn't be as fast as the Spell Cultivator.
"You got it from eating it? Is it related to your Spirit? I don't even know what your Spirit is~" Upon hearing this, Orange became interested and looked at Bai Zhou with eager eyes, like a curious child, wanting to know more about him.
After all, in her opinion, even if she really wanted to win over Bai Zhou, she needed to understand him better so that it would be easier and more convenient to cater to his preferences.
Although the two talked a lot on Microcard, due to their respective identities, they mostly discussed topics related to the Spirit Tool and didn't talk much about their personal lives.
Seeing that the oranges had taken the bait, Bai Zhou smiled slightly and slowly said, "A good appetite is innate and has nothing to do with my Spirit. The reason I cultivate so quickly is mainly because I am a twin spirit."
"What! Twin Spirits!!"
Upon hearing this, Orange immediately covered her mouth and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Twin spirits have never appeared in the history of the Sun Moon Empire!
Even in the Three Great Empires, which originally belonged to the Douluo Continent, Phoenix was a rare breed!
But...
Although she had never seen twin spirits, she had heard of them. While twin spirits were powerful, she had never seen anything so terrifying.
He reached the Spirit Saint in his teens Realm, this is still a bit too outrageous.
