This little punk is really incomparable to the burly guys; they got quite a beating and were eventually tossed out like little chicks.
"Alright, we should leave too," Ye Qiu said, nudging the still-shocked White Rose.
"Oh, okay, okay..."
The night's events were truly unexpected for White Rose. Just thinking about the scene earlier, she felt utterly overwhelmed, delightfully astonished!
Ye Qiu and White Rose walked in front, naturally followed by the group of burly guys behind them.
The sheer impact of this made the surrounding crowd instinctively make way, their gazes towards White Rose filled with fear and envy. Stepping out with such a group of underlings was really impressive! So cool!
At this moment, White Rose felt like a queen enjoying the world's adoration, greatly satisfying her vanity. She naturally lifted her head and walked outside with big strides.
After leaving the bar, Ye Qiu smiled and said to Ling Hao, "Thanks for your help today."
Ye Qiu's words caught Ling Hao by surprise. He tried to humble himself and said, "Being able to serve Brother Ye is an honor for me. If you ever need anything, just say the word, and I won't hesitate to do anything!"
"Alright, you guys can go back first," Ye Qiu said with a mixed expression of amusement and helplessness.
After Ling Hao and his group left, White Rose still seemed extremely excited. She immediately grabbed Ye Qiu's arm and said, "Amazing, my Brother Ye. I didn't expect you to mingle with the Dark Realm. Are all these people your little brothers? Oh, no, you're my newly recruited little brother, so they're all my little brothers too! Haha, this is simply too cool!"
Ye Qiu was speechless, thinking, what's going on in this girl's head?
Just as Ye Qiu was about to teach this girl a lesson, reminding her to be low-key in the future, his phone rang before he could say anything.
"It's so late, still not coming back?" With Ye Qiu following, Bai Lan wasn't worried about White Rose's safety. It was just that a girl staying out so late eventually made people concerned.
"This girl is visiting Jiangnan City for the first time and got a bit too excited, losing track of time. I'll bring her back now."
Recalling what Bai Lan had said to him earlier, Ye Qiu was helpless. White Rose's personality was not just lively but downright mischievous. If he didn't have some skills, she might have gotten into trouble today.
This girl was really something; this wasn't the Imperial Capital, people in Jiangnan City don't know her, so naturally, they won't give her face.
However, Ye Qiu didn't say any of this to Bai Lan.
An hour later, Ye Qiu sent White Rose to Bai Lan's villa.
Upon hearing the sound of the car, Bai Lan came out to greet them.
"Sister!"
As soon as she saw Bai Lan, White Rose cheerfully jumped out of the car and into Bai Lan's embrace, playfully whining.
Holding White Rose, a rare softness appeared in Bai Lan's eyes, but she still reprimanded her, "How many times have I told you? You're the daughter of the Bai Family. Why do you act like a boy? What will you do if no one wants you in the future?"
"I don't care for those people!" White Rose said nonchalantly.
Bai Lan felt a bit of a headache, while Ye Qiu merely gave a wry smile. It seemed this girl restrained herself in front of Bai Lan. If Bai Lan knew she kept those hundred-or-so underlings as something to brag about, he didn't know how Bai Lan would react.
White Rose seemed to sense Ye Qiu's tendency to spill the beans, immediately glaring at him in a threatening manner, "Ye Qiu, right? Although our Bai Family no longer opposes your affair, if you want to pursue my sister, you'd better get my approval first!"
Saying this, she also winked hard at Ye Qiu, seemingly saying, try to tattle, and you can forget about winning my sister over!
"Thud!"
Bai Lan lightly tapped White Rose's little head and scolded, "Girl, you're always fooling around and talking nonsense!"
When Bai Lan said this, her face turned a bit red because her father had already called her about it, saying that the Bai Family would no longer interfere in her marriage, which was great news for Bai Lan.
"Sister is biased; got a boyfriend and forgot the little sister," White Rose grumbled with pursed lips.
"Say that again! Believe it or not, I'll send you back to the Imperial Capital tomorrow?" Bai Lan glared.
"Ah. Sister, I was wrong, I was wrong, okay..." White Rose was startled. She hadn't had enough fun in Jiangnan City yet; how could she return so soon? Bai Lan's threat quickly deflated her, and she ran into the villa, fearing to further provoke Bai Lan.
Looks like this little troublemaker is quite afraid of Bai Lan.
Seeing White Rose's cheerful demeanor, it was evident she had a lot of fun in Jiangnan City today.
However, Bai Lan wasn't the type to express gratitude easily. She thought for a moment and then said to Ye Qiu, "Be careful on the way home."
Bai Lan knew Ye Qiu's background wasn't simple, and as someone extraordinary, the things he had to deal with were undoubtedly dangerous. In fact, the tasks he executed were likely to dance on the edge of life and death.
Bai Lan's words about being careful on the way home weren't just about Ye Qiu returning to his rented place, but more about wishing him safety on his missions away from home.
Ye Qiu understood the underlying meaning of Bai Lan's words, which touched him deeply. He nodded and said, "Rest assured, no one born in this world can threaten your man."
"Hmph! Who says you're my man?" Bai Lan's face turned red, and she spat lightly before turning to quickly walk into the villa, leaving Ye Qiu with only a beautiful back view.
Watching Bai Lan's back, Ye Qiu chuckled foolishly. Although Bai Lan always carried that aloof goddess persona, she had her own cute moments.
By the time Ye Qiu returned to his rental apartment, it was already the early hours. As usual, he took out the Jade Qilin and Jade Buddha to study them but still found nothing, and his realm showed no sign of loosening. This left Ye Qiu a bit helpless, but he was gradually getting used to it.
After some research, he entered a state of meditation to cultivate.
The next day came quickly; Ye Qiu like usual went to drop Bai Lan off at work, but today was different. White Rose tagged along to the company with Bai Lan.
