Chapter 110: Qian Renxue Follows...

Chapter 110: Qian Renxue Follows...

Summer was one of Kong's favorite seasons.

And the reason?

"Wow... those legs are even fairer than Sister Yan's!"

Kong couldn't help but marvel at the young lady walking past him.

The cool, "barely-there" clothing, typical of hot weather, covered so little that it evoked a sense of tenderness and admiration.

"Boom..." A sudden clap of thunder rolled across the sky. Thunderstorms were quite normal in summer, but it startled Kong out of his thoughts.

Looking up and realizing it was just regular thunder, not the purple kind, he let out a sigh of relief.

For a moment, Kong had thought that his dear wife was throwing a tantrum, giving him quite a fright. But after snapping back to reality, he quickly pushed those stray thoughts out of his mind.

He was merely appreciating beauty—nothing more! That's it, just appreciation!

After standing there in thought for a while, Kong finally started heading towards the clothing store.

Today, he wasn't out shopping with either Ei or the Raiden Shogun. He always kept a balance—outings with Ei on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays; with Raiden Shogun on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. And Sundays? Well, everyone needs a day off, right?

Even if one were made of iron, one couldn't keep up with that pace, let alone Kong.

"Since it's summer, it's time to buy some summer outfits for my two dear wives."

Kong thought to himself, a faint smile curling at his lips, lost in his own musings.

"This guy!"

Not far away, a blonde girl dressed in a white dress with golden trim clenched her fists and gritted her teeth in frustration.

She had just walked past Kong! A so-called "coincidental encounter"!

But what had she overheard?

He said her legs were fairer than Sister Yan's?

Sister Yan—could that be Dugu Yan?

The girl was both embarrassed and furious. While she felt happy to be complimented by Kong and even more pleased to have "won" the comparison, she was still upset by how flirtatious he was!

The girl was none other than Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe. Today, she had shown her true form to "accidentally" meet Kong, but her plan had already gone awry.

She hadn't even introduced herself, and Kong had already "teased" her.

"Strange, why isn't that purple-haired woman with him today?"

Qian Renxue wondered with a trace of suspicion.

When it came to Ei (Raiden Shogun), Qian Renxue was even more puzzled.

She had sent She Long to investigate, but the result was nothing—no trace of this person!

That purple-haired woman always appeared out of nowhere and disappeared just as mysteriously, leaving no trace at all.

She and Kong seemed to be lovers, and they weren't even hiding it. So why couldn't she find any information on her?

Qian Renxue began to entertain a possibility: the woman must be in disguise!

Yes, it had to be a disguise, just like how Qian Renxue herself had disguised as Xue Qinghe.

That purple-haired woman must have another identity, and her disguise was simply too perfect to be uncovered.

Because there was no information at all, Qian Renxue had no choice but to come to this conclusion. If there had been even a scrap of intel, she wouldn't have thought this way.

After a moment of hesitation, Qian Renxue wondered whether she should stage another "accidental encounter" with Kong.

She had already made up her mind—if her "Prince Xue Qinghe" persona couldn't win Kong over, she would try with her true identity. With her beauty, status, and... cough, those legs even fairer than Dugu Yan's, she was certain she could capture Kong's heart!

With that thought, Qian Renxue began to follow Kong, curious to see what he was up to.

Until...

Kong walked into a women's clothing store.

Qian Renxue: "..."

What on earth was this grown man doing in a women's clothing store alone?

Intrigued, Qian Renxue followed him inside.

"Young Master, are you selecting according to your wife's measurements?"

The speaker was the same elegant woman who had sold Kong the ice silk stockings last time.

Seeing Kong alone in the store, she initially thought he might be trying to do something behind his wife's back. She was already considering how to handle the situation.

However, it turned out that Kong hadn't even glanced at her. He was simply there to buy some clothes as a surprise for his wife.

The atmosphere grew a bit awkward. Kong was unfazed, unaware of the situation, but the woman felt quite embarrassed. If she hadn't been wearing shoes, she might have dug a hole in the ground with her toes out of sheer discomfort.

"Yes."

Kong's eye twitched at the woman's question. If he wasn't selecting according to his wife's measurements, then whose measurements would he use? Was there something wrong with this woman?

Seeing him nod, the woman silently began helping him choose clothes.

Following Kong's request, the items were cool and skimpy in design...

With his savings card in hand, he wasn't short on gold soul coins, so why skimp on fabric?

Though the woman found this puzzling, she continued to pick out clothes carefully.

Just as Qian Renxue walked in, she witnessed this scene. Her face flushed slightly as she looked at Kong. This man wasn't so bad after all—he knew how to prepare a surprise gift for his wife.

"Ugh, why do I feel this strange sense of envy?"

Qian Renxue felt a bit annoyed, but her face showed no emotion.

Kong noticed her presence, and for some reason, the woman before him seemed oddly familiar. The aura of light surrounding her reminded him of an "old acquaintance," which was why he had complimented her legs earlier...

The elegant woman also noticed Qian Renxue's arrival, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

In the entire Heaven Dou City, there were less than five women more beautiful than herself, and she knew them all. Even Liu Erlong, the dean of Blue Tyrant Academy, was only on par with her in terms of beauty.

Only Tang Yuehua, the head of Moon Pavilion, could surpass her in both beauty and grace.

But in just half a month, here was another woman who completely outclassed her in appearance, figure, skin, and aura.

How could the elegant woman not be astonished?

"Welcome, miss."

One glance at Qian Renxue was enough to tell that she was a lady of high status, so addressing her as "miss" was perfectly appropriate.

Qian Renxue studied the woman for a moment, her pupils shrinking in surprise—it was her!

Given her identity and strength, why would this woman be running a women's clothing store here?

It seemed that their academy might be facing some financial difficulties.

As soon as Qian Renxue laid eyes on the elegant woman, she recognized who she was!

The elegant woman was no weakling, and her keen observation skills had been honed to perfection. She noticed the brief flash of surprise in Qian Renxue's eyes.

It appeared that this person either knew or had seen her before. But why couldn't she remember?

"Mom (Auntie), we've come to see you!"

At that moment, two voices rang out from outside the store. A moment later, two beautiful young girls walked in.

They looked to be about eighteen, both with water-blue hair, and the water element around them was especially lively.

Though the two had different features, each was a stunning beauty in her own right.

"Oh, there are other customers here!"

The more lively of the two girls blurted out without thinking.

She glanced at Qian Renxue and didn't seem to think much of it. Then she looked at Kong.

"Wow, he's so handsome!"
