The Whole World Knows That the Crown Prince Loves Her

Huang Quan was momentarily dazed by the embrace.

Ye Qin held her but didn’t release her immediately. He gently stroked Huang Quan’s hair with his chin, his movements tender, and his eyes filled with longing.

Huang Quan gradually came back to her senses when she felt the gentle caress of her hair. As her heart raced, she realized the depth of her emotions.

“I…” Huang Quan attempted to speak but was stopped as Ye Qin held her even tighter, preventing her from pulling away.

Huang Quan’s voice caught in her throat.

“Quanquan, what were you going to say?” Ye Qin asked softly. “Just tell me.”

Huang Quan managed to find her voice and replied, “I miss you too. Just a little.”

“Just a little?” Ye Qin inquired, showing no signs of annoyance. “You only missed me, not the food I cooked?”

Huang Quan nodded. “Yes.”

Ye Qin let go of her hand and smiled. “Next time, try to miss me a bit more.”

Huang Quan questioned, “Next time?”

“Next time we leave, we’ll go together,” Ye Qin explained. “Aren’t you competing in the Tianqi Empire in a month?”

Huang Quan nodded. “Yes, both my third brother and I will be going.”

“By then, I’ll be going to the Tianqi Empire as well,” Ye Qin declared. “We’ll travel together until we reach the Tianqi Empire.”

“So, you won’t leave between now and when we go to the Tianqi Empire?” Huang Quan sought clarification.

Ye Qin nodded. “That’s correct.”

Huang Quan felt relieved. “That’s good.”

During this period, she could collect more deathly aura, which would come in handy when she lost control again next month.

Ye Qin urged, “Let’s eat first.” He guided her to sit down and placed a bowl of porridge in front of her. “Eat up; it’ll get cold if you don’t.”

Huang Quan complied. “You should eat too.” She started to eat her breakfast.

After they finished eating, Ye Qin tidied up and cleaned everything. He returned to Huang Quan and mentioned, “When I came back, I coincidentally met third brother on his way out. He said something to me at the time.”

Huang Quan inquired, “What did he say?”

Ye Qin shared the conversation and then asked, “Has anything else happened in the past few days besides the matter with the Qin family?”

Huang Quan didn’t hold back and told Ye Qin about Nangong Mian’s recent experiences, including the Qin family issue.

Huang Quan added, “The matter with the Qin family has been resolved, and they won’t trouble me anymore.”

Ye Qin smiled and commented, “Quanquan is quite formidable.”

The Qin family might not be a problem anymore, but another group might still cause trouble. However, Ye Qin was determined to protect Huang Quan from harm as long as he was around.

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

Huang Quan’s life energy surged once more, but this time, she collected enough deathly aura from Ye Qin and secretly found a place to suppress it, avoiding detection by Ye Qin and Nangong Mian.

A few days after suppressing her life energy, the dean visited.

“Girl,” the dean sat down across from Huang Quan and Ye Qin. He looked at the two and said, “We’ll be setting off for the Tianqi Empire in three days. Have you received the news?”

Huang Quan nodded, “My third brother and I discussed it, and we plan to set off in the next few days.”

“Are you ready?” the dean inquired.

Huang Quan seemed puzzled, “Ready for what?”

“The competition,” the dean replied. “Have you prepared for it?”

Huang Quan’s mouth twitched. “There’s no need to prepare for that.”

The dean persisted, “The elixirs. Have you prepared them?”

Concerned about their imminent departure, the dean continued, “If you haven’t, the academy has made preparations, and I’ll ask you to get more for your brother tomorrow.”
