Chapter 307: Chapter 307: Qin Xixi: I Choose Xiao Ye! (Please Follow)

Xiao Ye had his eyes on the system reward—a Rule Level Treasure-Seeking Pointer that could locate every treasure in the world and even point out where Attribute Demon Beasts resided.

If he owned that Treasure-Seeking Pointer, it would have been a piece of cake to find the habitat of a Reincarnation Attribute Demon Beast.

The Reincarnation Rule Fragment Crystals were necessary to upgrade Mu Qingxue’s Time Template. He had already collected all the Fortune and Time Rule Fragment Crystals; only fifty Reincarnation ones were missing.

Besides, this system quest was super easy. It was just a walk in the park for him, and Uncle Qin was trustworthy—he would not spill any secrets carelessly.

"Wait!"

After Xiao Ye shouted, a flash of white light appeared, and Qin Tai materialized in front of him. Qin Tai’s face was full of hope, and he said, "Brother Xiao, what instructions do you have?"

Xiao Ye raised two fingers. "Two conditions, then I’ll agree."

Qin Tai was overjoyed, his delight spilling out uncontrollably, and he said in surprise, "No need to say just two—one hundred conditions would be fine too, Brother Xiao, go on, name your terms!"

Xiao Ye said, "First, when I help your daughter with her Template issue, nobody except you and her can know about it—not even your family’s ancestors."

"Second, huh?" frёeωebɳovel.com

"I haven’t figured out the second condition yet. I’ll tell you once I do."

Qin Tai was ecstatic when he heard this. "The first condition is totally fine by me, and you can set the second one as you wish, Brother Xiao."

He tossed over a token engraved with the word ’Qin,’ and said, "Whoever holds this token, the Qin Family will help them unconditionally with one thing. As long as the Qin Family exists, this token stays valid."

Xiao Ye pocketed the token and replied, "Uncle Qin, you should head back for now. Two hours later, I’ll come to Jinling City with Sister Yun Bing and completely fix your daughter’s constitution issue!"

Qin Tai cupped his fist to thank him, then left.

Mu Qingxue eyed Xiao Ye up and down, then said, "That’s weird, you’re not the type to do something for nothing. Why did you suddenly agree to help him?"

"You’re not secretly crushing on the eldest daughter of the Qin Family, right? C’mon, fess up—are you?"

At those words, Yun Bing’s gaze turned dangerous.

Xiao Ye’s face darkened. "What the hell? Is that what you really think of me? Am I that kind of guy?"

Mu Qingxue nodded. "Yes!"

Yun Bing chimed in, "You totally are!"

Xiao Ye flicked both of them upside the head, one left, one right.

Mu Qingxue yelped "Ow!" and held her head in pain with both hands.

Yun Bing’s beautiful eyes widened. "I’m a Supreme, you know. You’re the first person to ever hit me on the head!"

Xiao Ye cockily blew on his hand. "So what if you’re Supreme? I’ll hit you anyway! What’s the big deal? There isn’t a single spot on you I haven’t hit. Tonight, I’ll hit you again."

Yun Bing’s pretty face blushed.

Xiao Ye’s face turned serious as he asked, "But if you two don’t want me to treat the Qin Family’s eldest daughter, I can turn City Lord Qin down right now, tell him the deal’s off, and that I can’t help."

Mu Qingxue rubbed her sore little head and shook her head, saying, "Nah, you already agreed, so you might as well go treat her."

Yun Bing said, "Whatever you want to do, I’ll never stop you. Don’t worry, I won’t stand in your way at all. Treat her if you want; don’t if you don’t want to."

Mu Qingxue agreed wholeheartedly and said, "Same here!"

Looking at the consideration from his two beast girls, Xiao Ye felt emotional—*with wives like these, what more could a man ask for?*

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

Qin Tai returned to Jinling City and immediately appeared outside Qin Xi’Er’s villa. He wanted to share the good news with his daughter ASAP. He knocked on the door and waited a while, but nobody answered.

Instead, his communicator started ringing. When he picked up, the butler’s voice came through:

"Patriarch, the Ye Family from the Imperial Capital just arrived at our City Lord’s Mansion. They’re in the main hall right now, and they brought loads of betrothal gifts. Looks like they’re here to arrange a marriage."

Ye Family, marriage?

"Got it, I’ll be right there," Qin Tai said, then hung up.

That’s what he said, but he didn’t head straight for the main hall. Instead, he looked toward the villa, thinking to himself,

*Xi’Er isn’t home—where’d she go?*

He thought for a moment and turned his gaze to the little forest in the back hills of the City Lord’s Mansion.

With a swoosh, Qin Tai’s figure blurred like a phantom as he raced toward the small forest.

Sure enough, beneath an ancient, towering tree and beside a crystal-clear brook, there was Qin Xi’Er.

She sat on a flat stone at the creek’s edge with her shoes off, revealing tiny, soft white feet, which she kept splashing and playing with in the water.

The massive ancient tree behind her was the one where Xiao Ye had stood to take a leak last time.

"What kind of person is Xiao Ye, really?"

She propped her pure, white chin on both hands, Xiao Ye’s handsome, dashing face popping up in her mind.

*Ever since Xiao Ye gave her a full-body massage treatment a couple days ago, she kept thinking about him, no matter how hard she tried not to.*

*She recalled that good-looking face, and those long, strong hands of his.*

"Xi’Er, I knew you’d be here!" a deep voice sounded, and the burly figure of Qin Tai appeared next to Qin Xi’Er.

"Dad!" Qin Xi’Er called sweetly.

"Mm," Qin Tai said, and immediately shared the good news, "Brother Xiao already agreed to treat your Template problem and fully fix your constitution, so you can finally be a normal person again."

When Qin Xi’Er heard that, her delicate face lit up with joy, and she exclaimed, "Really?"

Qin Tai nodded emphatically, speaking with conviction, "Absolutely! He’ll be in Jinling City in two hours, so you better get ready. Go take a bath, get squeaky clean, so Brother Xiao can get to work."

Qin Xi’Er’s cheeks turned pink at that and she replied, "Okay!"

"Go on, then, Daddy’s leaving—I’ll let you bathe in peace." She shooed him away.

Qin Tai glanced at the ultra-clean creek, and said, "Then hurry up, don’t waste time."

This place was Qin Xi’Er’s secret hangout, and nobody else was allowed in—no need to worry about peeping Toms.

Qin Tai turned to leave, but suddenly he thought of something and stopped, asking, "Xi’Er, the Ye Family from the Imperial Capital has come to propose marriage. Do you want to marry the Young Master of the Ye Family?"

Qin Xi’Er looked puzzled at that and replied, "I don’t know."

Qin Tai laughed and said, "You don’t need to feel pressured. If you don’t want to get married, I’ll cancel the engagement right away—now that your Template can be fixed, the Ye Family is not our only option. Childhood betrothals are just a formality anyway."

"Then how do you feel about Xiao Ye? Do you like him?"

At the mention of Xiao Ye, Qin Xi’Er remembered that super embarrassing scene of him giving her a massage. Her face blushed furiously, even down to her ears.

"Um!" She covered her face with both hands. "I don’t even know if I like Xiao Ye or not—maybe I do."

Seeing her act like a lovestruck little girl, experienced old Qin Tai already had his answer and said, "I see."

With that, he left.

*Qin Xi’Er felt a bit lost. What did Dad mean, he "sees"?*

*She hadn’t admitted to anything!*

After a moment, Qin Xi’Er started moving. Clothes rustled softly as she stripped them off onto the clean stone, even skipping her panties, then stepped into the creek, submerging herself.

*If she had to pick between the Ye Family’s Young Master and Xiao Ye, she would pick Xiao Ye.*
