Chapter 67 Imperial Astronomer II

When Ning Siyao and Chai Yiyun were holding on to the idea of leaving, they felt that Su Qingyan at that moment was different from before. But exactly what was different, they weren't able to put the words to it. Rather than saying they couldn't say, it was more accurate to say that it seems some of Su Qingyan's characteristics were already beginning to change.

Ning Siyao looked to Qingyan with a smile, "Qingyan, where did you go in these five days, why didn't you say anything to us? We were all worried for you."

Qingyan tidied her sleeves, having no intention to look at Ning Siyao. She nonchalantly opened her mouth, "The abbot gave me a task. I've already completed it now, so naturally I can come back."

She didn't give Ning Siyao the opportunity to reply, rather looking to Su Jiashi and apologizing, "To have let grandmother be worried is Yan'er's fault."

Su Jiashi held on to Qingyan's hand and shook her head, "If you can safely return, grandmother will be fine. Grandmother just knew you and the abbot were fated to meet."

Qingyan listened to her words, unable to deny, and nodded with a smile, "Yan'er also feels it was predestined."

Su Jiashi looked to Qingyan and patted her shoulders, "Yan'er, you've grown up. There some words grandmother doesn't know how to say."

Qingyan looked to Su Jiashi still with a pleasant smile, "Grandmother is right."

Su Jiashi began to feel that she didn't understand this granddaughter. In the past, this child was always so timid, making her worry that others in the manor would bully her. But looking at it now, that wasn't the case?

Just when did her granddaughter mature like this?

Was she still that sensible and clever grandchild of hers?

"Grandmother, I heard that second aunt wants to return home." Qingyan looked to Su Jiashi carrying a smile on her face, "Yan'er also thinks it's time we should head home."

Su Jiashi looked to Qingyan and nodded, "Since you've come back, let's immediately set out for the capital." With that said, Su Jiashi left the main hall under Yunxiang's support.

When Ning Siyao looked to Qingyan, she couldn't help but to say, "You've become quite impressive, Su Qingyan."

Qingyan smiled as she listed to Ning Siyao, "Thank you very much for the praise, second aunt. Qingyan is unworthy of such."

Lastly, Ning Siyao coldly snorted,

Murong Jingxuan privately summoned Xuanxin to speak with him. Although Xuanxin knew of Murong Jingxuan's status and background, he still held a bit of dislike towards Murong Jingxuan's attitude. Perhaps it was because Murong Jingxuan always carried a mischievous smiling face.

"Xuanxin Priest, if I were to tell you that I know who the person that played the tune was, can you tell me the history of that girl?" Murong Jingxuan gazed at Xuanxin before him and slowly said.

"Even if Shizi doesn't me, I naturally still know just what kind of god this girl was." Xuanxin looked to Murong Jingxuan with a serious look.

"Oh, let's hear it then, if you don't mind." Murong Jingxuan had an intrigued look.

"If I've guessed correctly, this girl is the Dingguo General Su Yun's daughter." Xuanxin met with Murong Jingxuan gaze and boldly declared.

Murong Jingxuan looked to him and earnestly nodded, "Correct, but I still want to know this girl's past, I'm wondering whether or not you could tell me."

Xuanxin looked to Murong Jingxuan and reluctantly shook his head. "Your Highness, this poor priest doesn't know of this girl's past."

Murong Jingxuan played with the dagger in his hand, "Are you not afraid that I might just kill you here?"

Xuanxin looked to him and shook his head, "Shizi, you won't kill me, because you are the purple gold malicious dragon that will watch over Miss Su."

Murong Jingxuan listened to Xuanxin's words and placed down the dagger in his hand. He looked to him and asked in confusion, "What do you mean by that?"
