An Yiqing paused her movents, turned her head to look at Xiao Yu, and frowned.
"Is your master the emperor? Just because he wants to see , do I have to go et him?"
Ye Chenghong, who had been silent, twitched his lips. If there were no outsiders present, he would have burst into laughter.
Xiao Yu’s face darkened, and his gaze towards An Yiqing grew even colder.
"My master is the Sect Leader of the Han Clan, not soone you can insult on a whim! Watch your words!"
An Yiqing raised her eyebrows, giving Xiao Yu a cold look.
"I am the next Sect Leader of the dicine Sect, and not just anyone can see at their convenience! Mr. Xiao, please understand that this is Xuandu Grand Hotel, not your Han Clan! It’s not the ancient tis over a thousand years ago! If you have no other business, please leave early. During the competition, excessive interaction with participants is prohibited, it’s not a good look."
Before Xiao Yu could speak again, An Yiqing swiped the card on the door and entered the room with Ye Chenghong without looking back.
At last, she didn’t forget to shut the door heavily.
Xiao Yu stood outside the door, his cold black eyes narrowed at the mahogany door before turning to leave.
Inside the room, An Yiqing saw Xiao Yu leaving through the peephole, her frown deepening.
"Gone?" Ye Chenghong changed his clothes and ca out of the room. Seeing An Yiqing sitting on the sofa, eyes lowered in thought, he casually asked.
"Hmm, gone."
"Xiao Yu’s master should be the Sect Leader of the Hanyu Sect, right?"
"Probably," An Yiqing nodded thoughtfully, "Master, what do you think his master wants with ?"
"Hmph, what else could it be? It’s nothing but the marriage arrangent between you and Xiao Yu!" Ye Chenghong snorted coldly, extrely displeased with the Hanyu Sect seeking An Yiqing, "Girl, listen to your master, under no circumstances should you go to the Hanyu Sect with Xiao Yu alone. If you absolutely must go, make sure to take the Thirteen Blood Generals with you, understand?"
Ye Chenghong worried that if Xiao Yu couldn’t persuade her this ti, he might resort to force next ti. An Yiqing alone wouldn’t be able to fend off so many, and if she were captured, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Master, rest assured. I will be extrely cautious whenever I go out in the future." An Yiqing nodded, agreeing with a smile.
"I’ve always trusted you with your affairs." Ye Chenghong smiled and stood up, "You’ve had a long day today, have an early rest after dinner tonight. There’s a tough battle to fight tomorrow. Hey, wait a minute!" His brows suddenly furrowed, he pondered for a mont before slapping his forehead.
"Look at , isn’t tomorrow New Year’s Day?!"
An Yiqing was taken aback and looked down at her phone. Indeed, tomorrow was January 1st!
"Master, I’m afraid we’ll have to spend this New Year’s Day in the hotel." She smiled wryly, thinking of calling ho later. This would be her second New Year’s Day with the An Family since she found them again; she couldn’t be with her grandfather and them, she should call and comfort Old Master An.
"New Year’s Day isn’t the New Year, it doesn’t matter. Later, rember to call your grandparents and cheer them up. The elders, you know, are delighted with a few kind words." Ye Chenghong carefully advised An Yiqing and didn’t forget to ask her to pass on his regards to Old Master An. After clearing things up, he returned to his room.
An Yiqing sat back on the sofa, lowered her eyes to ponder the matter of Xiao Yu and the Hanyu Sect, then used her phone to call the An Family Villa.
A good night’s sleep followed, and the next day was the first day of a new year, January 1st, New Year’s Day.
All the common people had the day off, so stayed ho to rest, and others packed their bags to travel. Of course, as the capital of Xuanjin, every holiday sees a peak in crowds, and this one was no exception.
No matter how lively it was outside, for those staying at the Xuandu Grand Hotel, it was irrelevant to them. The hotel had been fully booked by the dical Competition organizers, and without a pass, entry and exit were strictly controlled.
Early in the morning, as soon as An Yiqing opened her eyes, she heard her phone buzzing incessantly beside the bed. Squinting her eyes, she picked it up to see greeting ssages from family and friends.
She leaned halfway on the bed, reading through each ssage, then carefully replying to each one.
Then, the door to her room was knocked, and soon after, Yin Xilin’s little face peeked through the crack.
"Master, Happy New Year!"
An Yiqing happily looked at Yin Xilin’s eyes, which were smiling like crescent moons, and quickly sat up and beckoned her over.
"Lingling, Happy New Year! May you grow prettier with each passing year, little girl!"
