"Madam, since you're so energetic, it seems our plan will be easier to execute." Yu Jinshuo slowly bent down, leaned close to Liu Xinrong's ear, and spoke slowly with a sinister smile on his lips.
As Yu Jinshuo spoke, Liu Xinrong's face grew increasingly pale, her delicate body trembled slightly, and her eyes revealed terror, as if she had heard something extremely frightening and could no longer suppress her fear.
After Yu Jinshuo finished speaking, he laughed loudly and left, leaving Liu Xinrong slumped on the floor in the large room, trembling uncontrollably. Her small hands gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, her knuckles already white from the force.
Even with this attempt to distract herself, she still couldn't suppress the fear in her heart.
The next day, Liu Xinrong returned to the Liu residence. She did not try to avoid anyone and entered through the main gate in a very open and unpretentious manner.
Her actions were simply to show that everything she did was aboveboard and there was nothing shameful about it.
"Sister, let me take you for a walk around," Liu Xinrong suggested after exchanging some private words with Liu Xinya.
"What mood do I have to go for a walk now?" Liu Xinya gave a bitter smile. She was still worried about what the outcome would be in the Demon Realm.
“That’s why I need to go out and clear my head. If I stay cooped up at home all the time, I’m afraid I’ll get sick.” As she spoke, Liu Xinrong winked at her father, signaling him to persuade Liu Xinya as well.
Liu Jinli thought for a moment and said, "Xinya, you should go out for a walk. Staying at home all the time isn't good. There's always a way to solve things. Thinking too much won't help."
Liu Xinya looked at her father and her sister, sighed softly, and whispered, "Alright, let's go out for a walk."
“Let’s not bring any servants. Just the two of us sisters can wander around casually. Having outsiders around would only cause trouble,” Liu Xinrong suggested.
Anyway, Liu Xinya wasn't thinking about this right now, so she nodded in agreement.
So the Liu sisters changed into clothes that were easy to wear and left the Liu residence.
Liu Xinya grew up in the royal city and wasn't particularly interested in its prosperity. So, after discussing it, the two of them headed straight out of the city to relax in the suburbs.
For two or three days, Liu Xinrong and Liu Xinya traveled around, seemingly to relax, which prevented some observant people from noticing anything amiss.
Upon receiving the news, Yu Xinyi was completely baffled, unable to understand why Liu Xinrong would actually accompany her sister to relax.
"Master, should we continue to keep an eye on things?" a trusted subordinate asked in a low voice.
It's been two or three days now, and nothing strange has happened. Could it be that their initial estimate was wrong?
"We can't let our guard down." Yu Xinyi shook his head. "We'll probably have results soon."
He simply couldn't believe that Yu Jinshuo wouldn't have a solution to this problem.
Even the Demon Realm says they're going back to investigate, isn't Yu Jinshuo afraid?
He didn't believe it.
Sooner or later, Yu Jinshuo will slip up; all he needs to do now is be more patient.
Inside the palace, the demon god looked at Liu Lanyan, who was listlessly slumped on the table, and asked with amusement, "What's wrong, Lanyan?"
"I'm so bored," Liu Lanyan said listlessly, pursing her lips.
"Don't you like the palace?" the demon god asked knowingly, raising an eyebrow and smiling.
"Nonsense." Liu Lanyan said irritably. She used to be able to watch the dancers perform, but ever since that incident, she has become wary of them.
Who knows if the demon god will be attracted?
The demon god felt uncomfortable under Liu Lanyan's gaze and asked her somewhat awkwardly, "Lanyan, what are you looking at?"
"Hey, let me ask you a question." After thinking for a moment, Liu Lanyan finally followed her true feelings and said.
"Yes, ask away." The Demon God nodded; he was always happy to answer Liu Lanyan's questions.
Liu Lanyan deliberately moved closer and whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear, "You're not interested in men, are you?"
"What?" The demon god almost choked on his own saliva, staring at Liu Lanyan in disbelief. Had he misheard something?
"Why are you yelling so loudly?" Liu Lanyan quickly pulled the demon god away, glaring at him angrily. "You're not actually interested in men, are you?"
Before Liu Lanyan could finish speaking, a hand suddenly struck her on the head. She covered her head with her hand in dissatisfaction and accused the demon god with a wronged look: "Why did you hit my head?"
"What kind of question is that?" The demon god was both amused and exasperated. "Do I look like I'm interested in men?"
"Didn't the Demon Lord also give you a male beauty?" Liu Lanyan muttered under her breath.
"That was a gift for me, not what you think," the demon god explained helplessly.
"Ah, you said you weren't interested, but you're already thinking of 'using' it!" Liu Lanyan accused loudly.
Hearing this, the demon god felt like vomiting blood. He pulled Liu Lanyan into his arms, gently pinched her nose with two fingers, and asked in a low voice, "What kind of messy thoughts are you having? Who are you to be a servant, maid, or dancer?"
"Then it can be used for other purposes too," Liu Lanyan muttered, unconvinced.
The demon god was so angry he didn't know what to say. He raised his hand to strike Liu Lanyan on the head, but suddenly stopped, a meaningful smile on his face: "Lanyan, are you jealous?"
"Eat your big head!" Liu Lanyan immediately jumped out of the demon god's arms and righteously corrected him, "Don't make wild guesses. Also, don't hug me for no reason. I'm not a child anymore."
"I didn't treat you like a child." The Demon God's lips curled up slightly, revealing a gentle smile.
However, to Liu Lanyan, that smile seemed ambiguous no matter how she looked at it, making her feel a slight heat rising in her body.
He muttered a curse under his breath, "This devil is so annoying!"
"Anyway, you're not interested in men, right?" Liu Lanyan quickly continued the previous topic, seeking confirmation.
“Of course.” The Demon God frowned, not understanding why Liu Lanyan was suddenly so concerned about this issue.
"Alright then." Upon hearing this, Liu Lanyan immediately beamed and called out, "Peng Zhen!"
