I Became the Eye Candy: Four Bigshots Claimed to be My Dad? Chapter 107: Let Them Investigate

"Master, I’m only six years old," Ye Qianning said.

Dean Chen was stunned for a mont before it dawned on him.

’That’s right, the girl is only six. If an adult had said that, it would’ve sounded like a lie. But coming from a child, it’s hard to tell what’s true and what’s not.’

’Even if soone with ill intentions tries to test her, given her capabilities, she can definitely handle it. The best way to protect this girl is for everyone to act as if they know nothing.’

"Never mind. As long as you have a plan, that’s what matters. If you need your master for anything, you must tell ," Dean Chen said in a grave, aningful tone.

"Thank you, Master."

"Why are you being so formal with ? From now on, I don’t want to hear you say ’thank you’ again."

It made their master-disciple relationship feel distant.

Ye Qianning looked up and smiled. "Got it, Master."

"That’s more like it." Dean Chen was extrely pleased.

Just then, a knock sounded at the door, and a young attendant ca up to bring in their al.

"I won’t stay to eat, Master. Dad is still waiting for outside the courtyard." Ye Qianning hopped down from the stool.

"Alright then. Don’t keep the General waiting. Off you go." Upon hearing this, Dean Chen stood up as well. He had forgotten that General Xiang was still on the mountain.

Ye Qianning gave the Dean a slight bow with her hands clasped, then walked out the door.

By now, the sky had grown dark. As Ye Qianning stepped out of the courtyard, she imdiately spotted a figure standing not far away. A warmth spread through her heart. Seeing her erge, the figure started walking toward her.

"Dad."

"Slow down." Xiang Minghou habitually bent down and scooped her up.

"Dad, let’s go eat." ’It seed her dad hadn’t even eaten lunch.’

"Let’s go. It’s been a while since I’ve had the academy’s food." The academy’s food was bland if you ate it every day, but he kind of missed it when he couldn’t have it.

A smile touched Ye Qianning’s lips. ’She had no intention of telling her dad about the Two-Form Symbiosis. His words today were enough to prove he was unaware of it.’

’She would keep everyone else out of it. She was just a little girl. Whether they threatened or bribed her, as long as she stuck to the story that she had just found it, there would be nothing they could do.’

’The journey from Nanyuan to Beili was long and filled with mountain ranges. Let them search all they want.’

’But now that the Two-Form Symbiosis was in her master’s hands, she was afraid the academy wouldn’t be very peaceful anymore. Especially her master. She would have to keep a low profile for a while.’

The night was deep and dark, and black clouds obscured the bright moon in the sky.

At that mont, a piece of news was spreading among the powerful and noble families of the Imperial Capital. Carrier pigeons flew out from one great house after another, their wings FLAPPING as they left the Beili Imperial City, carrying the news to all corners of the land.

「The Pri Minister’s Residence, Imperial Capital」

"The Two-Form Symbiosis... Are you certain it was the Two-Form Symbiosis?" Pri Minister Gao shot up from his chair, unable to hide the excitent in his eyes.

The guard kneeling on the floor said, "Yes. I heard it with my own ears and saw it with my own eyes. There’s no mistake."

Pri Minister Gao was utterly shocked. ’If the General’s manor has the Two-Form Symbiosis, does that an he’s been to Penglai Immortal Mountain?’

’He’d heard that on Penglai Immortal Mountain, there was a dicinal ingredient that could cure dwarfism.’

"Everyone was stunned at the ti, but General Xiang didn’t seem to recognize the Two-Form Symbiosis. At that mont, he—" The guard recounted Xiang Minghou’s words and expression from the event.

Pri Minister Gao had just been thinking about Xiang Minghou, and after listening to the report, he considered the man in more detail. ’General Xiang is just a brute. If he had recognized what it was, would he have been willing to just give the Two-Form Symbiosis away to soone else?’

’That was a divine fruit from Penglai Immortal Mountain! Anyone who obtained it would treat it like their most precious treasure.’

"Investigate that little girl from the General’s manor. Find out exactly where she got it," Pri Minister Gao ordered.

"Yes, sir."

「Beili Imperial Palace, the Imperial Study」

When the Beili Emperor heard the Hidden Guard’s report, he was so shocked that the calligraphy brush in his hand fell. ’The Two-Form Symbiosis has actually appeared in the world? Has Penglai Immortal Mountain revealed itself?’
