Bai Lan woke up on the table to find that Leng Qiyue had disappeared from the bed. She was wrapped in a thin blanket. He stood up abruptly and pushed open the door, but was surprised to see her standing at the door.

Leng Qiyue was carrying a basin of water. When she saw Bai Lan, she was stunned for a moment before saying, "You're awake. Wash your face and fix your face. It looks like you really are in a sorry state."

Leng Qiyue put down the water basin, turned around and was pulled into Bai Lan's embrace. She said with a slightly trembling voice, "Yue Er, I am really afraid that you will disappear."

Leng Qiyue's expression darkened. She gently pushed him away and said, "Bai Lan, my heart and body have been given to Dongfang Haotian. I'm still carrying his child, so I can't …"

Bai Lan once again embraced her and said, "I know, I don't care. As long as I can see you, it's fine. Don't chase me away, I'll wait for you."

Leng Qiyue let out a sigh. Another idiot, what a pity … If it weren't for the fact that this Bai Lan was a good choice, it was a pity that … Let me think of some way to make it up to him...

The villa had already been built a month ago, so no one dared to mention anything about celebrating. Leng Qiyue looked at her account book, which showed her meticulous calculations. She had spent a total of 180,000 to build the villa, how lucky. There was still 60,000 taels left. If it was used for daily maintenance it would be fine, but recruitment and training were not enough. Also, he wanted to build a school in the town, he couldn't do without money. If he had known earlier, he would not have done so many secret routes, and his budget would have been greatly overspent.

Raising her head, she realized that Bai Lan was silently looking at her. She smiled and said, "What are you looking at? I didn't scare you to death even though you were so ugly."

Bai Lan smiled and didn't answer. Leng Qiyue said, "I'll bring you to get the gold tonight. The villa's money is almost gone. The 200,000 you gave me last time was accidentally spent."

Bai Lan frowned and said, "In less than a month, you spent two hundred thousand? I didn't see you buy anything, but since you don't have enough money, I'll just go home and take it.

Leng Qiyue knew that Bai Lan had misunderstood and did not explain. She only said, "Come find me at night, I'll take you to a place."

The night in early spring was still very cold. Leng Qiyue pulled on her fur coat, which her mother had just made for her. It was a shameful thing for girls to get pregnant before they left the pavilion in ancient times, but their parents didn't think so. They felt that everything their daughter did was the right thing to do. Now that they had calmed down, the rest of the people in the villa also let nature take its course. In fact, in their eyes, Leng Qiyue and Dongfang Haotian were already husband and wife.

Bai Lan looked at the sky and lightly knocked on the door, "Yue Er, I'm here."

Leng Qiyue carried a bag with a candle out as she walked out. Bai Lan closed the door for her and asked, "Where are we going?"

Leng Qiyue smiled mysteriously and said, "We'll know when we get there." After speaking, he pulled Bai Lan's hand and walked up the mountain.

Bai Lan held onto Leng Qiyue's hand and felt her heart skip a beat. However, she was unable to indulge in her reverie. Leng Qiyue's feelings for him were too pure; they were purely brotherly. If he only loved her as an elder brother, would protecting her be less painful?

"Bai Lan, come and push it away." Leng Qiyue's words interrupted his thoughts.

Bai Lan looked at the stone bed and frowned, obediently pushing it. The stone bed was very heavy, and one had to use inner strength to push it away. When they arrived at the stone gate, Bai Lan did not even need to tell them to open it. After entering the tunnel, Leng Qiyue was just about to speak when she was carried by Bai Lan. They jumped across the tunnel and asked, "How do you know about these mechanisms?"

Bai Lan laughed lightly and said, "This mechanism is too child's play. Anyone with some experience in the martial arts world can see through it."

Leng Qiyue pouted unhappily and said, "I wanted to show off, but now that's fine, I can't scare you."

Bai Lan smiled and said, "Why aren't you scared? Look, I've never seen this much gold, silver, and jewelry in my life."

Leng Qiyue proudly said, "How about it? Back then, Haotian and I …" Suddenly, his expression darkened and he no longer spoke.

Bai Lan wasn't an idiot, she immediately understood that this was the place where she and Dongfang Haotian had discovered. Looking at the dejected Leng Qiyue, Bai Lan took out a small box from the jewelry pile and said, "Quickly, look at what this is?"

As expected, Leng Qiyue was immediately attracted by it. She ran over and opened the box, revealing a beautiful mask. The mask was made of some unknown material, and it rested on his face like a colorful phoenix. It only covered half of his face, and his nose and mouth were completely exposed. This mask did not need any restraining force, as long as he lightly stuck it to his face, he would not be able to suck it out.

Bai Lan saw Leng Qiyue, who was wearing a mask, and exclaimed, "Jade Face Luosha?"

Leng Qiyue took off her mask and asked curiously, "What is a jade-faced Luosha?"

Bai Lan said with a grave expression, "This is a legend from a hundred years ago. Do you want to hear it?"

Seeing Leng Qiyue nod furiously, he smiled and sat on the pile of jewelry, letting her sit on his lap as he said, "This is a world shocking story …"
