Han Jing exchanged a glance with Lan Ling, seeing the gleam of victory in each other’s eyes.
Han Jing smiled and said to Ghost Ancestor, "Are you missing Xiao Xue, elder? My mother has been taking her to the palace during the day these past two days. Ever since the Emperor t her, he’s been particularly fond and even suggested to my mother that Xiao Xue should stay in the palace!"
What Han Jing said was true; Xiao Xue, this little maid, naturally exudes a charming aura that everyone loves. Her mother can’t wait to visit and see her every day, even Brother Qiao drops by often. Upon hearing about her, the Emperor couldn’t help but want to et her, so Han Jing had Su Yaogeng take Xiao Xue into the palace.
Perhaps after Su Yu changed her blood, the girl’s health improved significantly. Though barely a week old, she looks as energetic as a month-old baby, giving Han Jing the confidence to let her be carried outside.
However, this girl is naturally clever, behaving calmly during the day, never crying unless she feels hungry, very well-behaved, accepting hugs from anyone graciously. At night, she must sleep with soone, otherwise, she’d cry and fuss; hence, Han Jing sleeps with her at night, and during the day, anyone can hold her once she’s fed.
Upon hearing that Xiao Xue might stay in the palace, Ghost Ancestor puffed his beard and glared, "What? That little one is so small, how can she stay in the palace? Besides, she has Yun Peng’s blood running through her, definitely a bright child with extraordinary potential. Putting her in the convoluted atmosphere of the Imperial Palace would delay her progress! Look at her, so full of promise, her future achievents surely won’t fall short of her father’s!"
"Master, you’re absolutely right. The eldest’s daughter definitely won’t be lesser than him! If nurtured well, she would astonish all those old folks in the Spirit Cultivation Realm, right?" Lan Ling chid in.
Ghost Ancestor nodded, "For once, you’re speaking so truth!"
Lan Ling teased, "Doesn’t Master want to see Xiao Xue every day~ Once she grows up and begins cultivation, you could guide her carefully!"
Ghost Ancestor glanced at Lan Ling, then Han Jing, and snorted, "Alright, you two stop playing gas with . From the first day you two started exchanging looks, I knew what you’re plotting! Using Xiao Xue as an excuse, are you trying to fly high?"
Lan Ling...
Han Jing...
The two exchanged a glance, Han Jing looked at Lan Ling disdainfully, questioning why ca up with such a rotten idea?
Han Jing got up, walked over to Ghost Ancestor, knelt down sincerely, "Please forgive , elder. I genuinely hope to learn from you as a disciple. Please forgive Jing’er’s past recklessness and grant Jing’er a chance. Jing’er will devote herself to cultivation, will definitely not..."
Han Jing glanced at Lan Ling, "Definitely won’t be worse than him!"
Lan Ling humd, "Then I’m still the senior disciple!"
He certainly... won’t be as good as her, Lan Ling felt a little dejected, thinking of comparing his prospects with soone having dual-elent abilities... Is it like digging his own grave?
But, she’s family, being both a sister-in-law and a junior sister, how could he not look after her?
Lan Ling sidled up to Ghost Ancestor mysteriously, "Master, let tell you, your opportunity has co. Haven’t you been wondering why you never t a good seedling like the eldest?"
