Qing Nuan got out of bed and opened the door.

Linger said she would come back, he had to believe her.

Thinking, he closed the door again.

After a while, there was a knock on the door, and he opened the door with joy, but it was Uncle Wen.

"Young master, morning."

Qing Nuan said unhappily, "...Uncle Wen."

Uncle Wen didn't know why he was so unhappy. Could it be that he came too early?

Uncle Wen was carrying the toiletries, and Qing Nuan invited him in to sit.

"Uncle Wen, is there any way you can make the spirit beast get closer to your master?"

"Young master reads more books than I do. You should know that this beast is born close to its master."

Yes, born, but his spirit beast is not.

"Hey~" Qing Nuan sighed suddenly, lying on the table.

"Little Lord?"

"Linger, she doesn't like me." Qing Nuan buried her face in her arms.

Uncle Wen asked in confusion, "Who is Linger?"

Could it be that the young master fell in love with Dou Chukai and fell in love with whose girl?

So excited, I have to tell the owner of this.

"My spirit beast egg."

Uncle Wen: ... Bai was excited.

"Young master is joking, it is impossible for a spirit beast to dislike its master."

"But she didn't return overnight." As she said that, Qing Nuan's voice was dull and extremely aggrieved.

Uncle Wen inexplicably felt that the young master's current state was a bit like... alone in an empty boudoir?

Uncle Wen persuaded: "Maybe, after having spiritual knowledge, I became lively and came back when I got tired of playing."

"By the way, have you established a blood contract?"

Qing Nuan shook her head, "Not yet, I want to wait until Ling'er comes out of the shell to build it."

"Well, that's fine, but...it's nothing."

There is no need to go to school today, Uncle Wen came over to chat with him for a while and then went out.

Qing Nuan packed herself up and walked around the room.

The door opened, and many people passed by.

"Young Master, what are you doing on the ground?"

"Practice."

He raised his eyes and called out to the maid, "Can you make my mattress thicker?"

Naturally good-looking, plus gentle and elegant, the maid was asked and blushed.

The young master is almost eighteen, and he is getting more and more handsome.

Seeing the mattress and quilt getting thicker, Qing Nuan reached out and pressed it, and nodded with satisfaction, which was much softer than before.

"Have you seen my spirit beast egg?"

The maid said: "I have seen it, in the place of Young Master Qingyang, I..."

Before she could finish speaking, she saw the young man's expression froze and hurried out.

"Little Lord?"

...

In front of Qingyang Gate, he was practicing swordsmanship, but when he saw that one egg and one tiger looked comfortable, he wanted to cut it.

He could not forcefully accept the white tiger because the spirit beast had a strong sense of unwillingness to go back.

It actually didn't return to the owner for an egg.

"Traitor!" Qing Yang pointed at Baihu with his sword.

"Roar—" Bai Hu said, the aura on Ling Qingxuan's body was very comfortable.

The sword pointed at the spirit beast egg, and Qing Yang said, "How long are you going to stay with me! Hurry up and go back."

If the silly brother knew that the egg was with him, he would probably have to think about it again.

Ling Qingxuan looked at the sky, only to realize that it was dawn.

Well, go home.

As soon as she rolled off the back of the white tiger, she was taken in by someone.

The young man lowered his eyes and pursed his lips to look at her.

... The little guy looks so aggrieved.

Qingyang snorted coldly, took the white tiger back, and closed the door with force.

"I'll beat you once in the future!"

Qing Nuan touched Ling Qingxuan's eggshell.

"Don't touch me." Too numb!

Qing Nuan's hand paused, put her on the ground, and turned around silently.

Aya Qingxuan rolled around behind him.

zz, why didn't the little guy hold his seat.

[...Host, you didn't let the villain touch you. 】

This seat said not to touch, but when he touched it, his whole body went numb, which was very strange.

'Snapped'

The spirit beast egg hit the sharp stone.

Qing Nuan quickly turned back and squatted down.

The hand stretched out habitually, and then put it down again halfway through.

"Linger, are you alright?"

"Something happened."

Qing Nuan took a closer look, and the eggshell showed no signs of cracking.

"What's up?"

"I can't move."

Qing Nuan pursed her lips, "Then... I'll think of another way."

"hug me."

Qing Nuan opened her mouth slightly, "You, you mean."

Aya Qingxuan did not say it a second time.

The boy pursed his lips and smiled, as bright as a blooming flower.

He hugged Aya Qingxuan tightly and took her back to the room to clean.

After drying it and putting it on the bed, Aya Qingxuan tried the mattress and found that it was much thicker.

The little guy is very sensible, so I won't go to see Brother Hu tonight.

"Ling'er, why are you here with eldest brother?"

After returning, Qing Nuan finally asked this question.

"I won't go in the future." Ling Qingxuan stopped the topic.

The teenager stared at the table, "I worried about you all night and didn't dare to fall asleep. I want to open the door for you as soon as you come back."

"..." Ling Qingxuan was inexplicably dry, she rolled and said, "Come here."

Qing Nuan went to the bed.

Spirit Beast Egg arched the quilt open and said domineeringly: "Make up for sleep."

"As soon as I find you, I won't be sleepy."

"I'm sleepy, hold me to sleep." Ling Qingxuan jumped into his arms.

Qing Nuan had no choice but to carry her to bed.

This was the first time he had been lying on his bed since she had spiritual consciousness. Just like before, he held her in his arms, breathing only her breath.

He said he was not sleepy, but after a while, he breathed evenly and fell asleep.

Ling Qingxuan moved and wanted to roll aside, but he was pulled back unconsciously.

"Aya..."

The voice was slightly hoarse.

Ling Qingxuan looked at his trembling eyes, and remained silent.

...

The five great aristocratic families on the Profound Power Continent have all possessed spiritual beasts in the past dynasties.

Except for the spirit beast of Qing Yang, the eldest young master of the Qing family, the spirit beast owned by the head of the eldest grandson family is Suzaku.

The Xuanwu of the Lu family were still in their infancy, and the younger generation of the Long family had not yet reached the age of condensing spirit beasts.

As for the Xie family, starting from the previous generation of patriarchs, the bloodline of the beast race began to decline.

"Brother Warm!"

During the gathering of the five great families, Qing Nuan was in the corridor, and a ten-year-old girl with a double flower beard jumped out strangely.

She is the child of the Long family, Long Jin.

"Xiao Jin." Qing Nuan smiled lightly, "Long time no see."

"Yeah, long time no see, Xiao Jin misses brother Nuan!" The little girl rushed over and Qing Nuan slightly avoided.

"Brother Nuan?"

"It's not clear whether men and women give or receive. You are also a girl's family now, so you should pay more attention in the future."

The little girl puffed her cheeks, "You said the same thing as the wet nurse. She also said that at my age, I can already pick a husband in advance."

Speaking of this, her eyes sparkled, "Brother Nuan, will you be my husband-in-law?"

Holding the spirit beast egg in his arms, the boy shook his head and said, "No."

"Why?"

Hearty laughter came from the side, Xie Han came over in a corset, "It's incredible, Sister Jin started thinking about men at such a young age."

"Don't call me sister, I'm not familiar with you." Long Jin saw Xie Han with a look of disgust.

Xie Han didn't think so, "Didn't you say you can pick a husband, why don't you consider your brother letter in the test?"

"Don't think about it!" Xu Shi was bothered by Xie Han's hippie smile, and Long Jin and Qing Nuan saluted and left.

At this moment, Qing Nuan also greeted Xie Han slightly.

Xie Han asked, "Where's your elder brother?"
