CHAPTER XXIX

Room

Su Yuan's injuries have not healed, and in order to avoid conflicts with his alcoholic father, he simply lives in Yu Qianluo's house temporarily.

The huge duplex building only lived Yu Qianluo and an elderly housekeeper, and Su Yuan found the guest room with a familiar car and threw himself into the soft big bed. As he moved sharply, the wound on his back began to bleed faintly again.

Yu Qianluo leaned against the door frame, looked at the red bandage, and kindly reminded, "Take care of your body, next week will be your long-awaited school anniversary." ”

"The school has issued a document notice?" Su Yuan was interested, "How did you arrange it?" ”

"The form of an open-air ball, interspersed with performances. This time it is also open to people from outside the school. ”

"Prom...... Is formal attire required? Su Yuan touched his chin thoughtfully.

Yu Qianluo was quite surprised, with his understanding of his friends, Su Yuan didn't care about these superficial things. "There is no explicit rule, but it is estimated that most students will not let go of this good opportunity to be in the limelight, especially the ...... in the freshman year."

After Yu Qianluo finished speaking, he was stunned first. He seemed to be able to vaguely guess Su Yuan's intentions.

"I don't know if the money for the last scholarship was enough." Su Yuan muttered in a low voice, then looked up and smiled at Yu Qianluo, "For the evening dress, I have to ask you to help me check it." ”

As soon as Yu Qianluo walked into the clothing store, the shopping guide immediately greeted him with a smile, "What does Mr. want to see?" We can customize suits ......"

"I want to see your manager." Yu Qianluo was not infected by this enthusiasm at all, and his expression was indifferent. The shopping guide smiled slightly, and was about to say something more, when a woman with exquisite makeup walked out of the store and intercepted her words, "Xiao Miao, you go and greet other customers first, here I am." ”

The shopping guide, known as Xiao Miao, answered, lowered his head and walked away quickly.

"Mr. Shao, Xiao Miao is new here, if there is anything offended, please forgive me." The woman bowed slightly, and her posture was very respectful, but Yu Qianluo couldn't help frowning, "The acquisition has not been completed yet, Manager Dong doesn't have to call me Mr. Shao." ”

The woman smiled professionally and was noncommittal.

Yu Qianluo didn't pay much attention to this matter, and directly explained his intentions: "In two days, a male college student will come to buy an evening dress, no matter which one he picks, you will sell it to him at a price of six hundred, and I will make up for the difference." ”

It's a strange request, but Manager Dong responded kindly, "It's just a small president, such a low price, guests may be suspicious." ”

"No, he lives frugally, he doesn't touch these things on weekdays, and he has no real idea of the price of evening dresses."

Manager Dong looked puzzled, but he didn't ask too much, but Yu Qianluo seemed to know what she was thinking, and said in a gentle tone, "At the dance party where everyone is glamorous, he just wants to preserve the girl's dignity and let her have a pleasant and unforgettable night." ”

"Six hundred may be an inconspicuous amount for you and me, but it's all he can come up with after struggling to maintain the family's expenses."

Manager Dong lowered his head and said yes again and again, and missed the loneliness that flashed in Yu Qianluo's eyes.

What kind of mood was he in watching Su Yuan walk towards Xia Yue step by step, and even he couldn't tell himself.

He could only turn a blind eye to his budding feelings, as if this would avoid the doomed end.

Mount Philing

Midnight couldn't wait for the news of Leng Yue from the Demon Realm, and gradually lost his patience. He didn't sit back and wait, and after much deliberation, he decided to take action.

It's just that he has been in the world for nearly a thousand years, and I don't know if I can successfully ask him to go out of the mountain to help.

Midnight took a deep breath, seemed to have made up some kind of determination, and spread his wings and flew towards the sky. After two sleepless flights, he reached the edge of the orc territory.

In front of me is a towering ancient tree. Even compared to Midnight's huge body, this old tree is not too reckless. The huge canopy of trees shades the sky and the sun, and the vines seem to hang down from the clouds. Within a radius of ten miles, it is rare to see other plants.

Midnight stopped under the ancient tree, weighed it slightly, or decided to report to his home first, "Midnight, the eldest son of the beastmaster, came to visit the predecessors of Yejiao." ”

The dragon roared and shook the sky, startling countless low-level birds and beasts. When the chaotic sound of flapping wings stopped, the surroundings of the ancient wood fell into an eerie silence.

Midnight was not discouraged, and patiently repeated it over and over again. By the seventh time, a high-level magical beast with a blood-red body and a peacock-like shape slowly fell from the canopy. She bowed her head in respect, "Please go back, eldest son of the Beastmaster, Yeqi does not want to see guests." ”

Midnight guessed that she was probably Yeji's partner, so she was extremely polite, "I have something important to ask for, and I hope to be accommodating." ”

"Yeqi has been away from the world for a long time, and it is inconvenient to make an exception." She paused, slowed down her tone and said, "In Xia Rose, what I conveyed this time is the meaning of Yeqi, Your Excellency should please go back, your status is noble, you should not be so self-defeating." ”

"Ye Ka has a strange temperament, and no one can change what he believes, even if the Beast King comes in person today, it will be the same result."

"Demon Ancestor's daughter is missing." Midnight's deep voice had a hint of indistinguishable hoarseness, "Ye Qi was once under the command of the Demon Ancestor, is he really unwilling to help?" ”

The sparrow seemed to suddenly become uneasy, shook its wings, and abruptly replied "I'm sorry," and flew back to the treetops.

"I won't leave without seeing him." The black dragon roared under the tree.

"Please." In the distance, the sound of the sparrow could be heard from the dense canopy.
