The study in the front yard of Zhang’s house.

"Rui'er, what's the situation with the girl you brought back a few days ago?"

Zhang Ruize's father, the head of the Zhang family, heard from the servants that the eldest son brought back a woman. He initially thought that she was his son's concubine. Although his son did not have a wife, he understood if he wanted someone to serve him, and he did not take it to heart.

But later, Master Zhang heard from his servants that his son had arranged the girl to stay in the guest room, so he asked someone to call Zhang Ruize to the study to inquire about the situation.

"Father, on my way home that day...I saw Miss Ye's clothes. They were not ordinary clothes, but more like robes. Miss Ye's words and actions were all like those of a big family. I think Miss Ye might be from those three regions."

Ye Ruize told his father his guess.

After listening to Zhang Ruize's analysis, Patriarch Zhang lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, "Rui'er, if it's really as you said, then you should get in touch with Miss Ye more!"

"Yes, father!"

Zhang Ruize originally didn't want to tell his father about Ye Qingqing's situation so early. Now that his father already knew about Ye Qingqing's existence, he wanted his father's support, so he told his father vaguely what he knew about Ye Qingqing.

Guest room of Zhang Mansion.

"Juan'er, do you know where your master is now?"

Ye Qingqing stayed in Zhang's house for five consecutive days. During these days, she had been staying in the guest room, passing the time by flipping through the storybooks that Juan'er had found for her. She was really bored, and she was ready to leave Zhang's house to find her master.

"Miss Ye, the young master is now in his own courtyard. Do you want to see him?"

Juan'er and Cui'er were left by Zhang Ruize to serve Ye Qingqing. Juan'er and Cui'er had served the eldest master for many years, so they felt that the eldest master liked Miss Ye, and Miss Ye would become their mistress sooner or later.

Ye Qingqing was respectful to them in their attitude towards her and thought that it was because the Zhang family treated their servants well. She did not think that Zhang Ruize liked her at all and did not understand the meaning of Juan'er's words.

"Juan'er, please take me to find your master!"

In the past few days, Ye Qingqing selected some herbs from the ones that Zhang Ruize had sent over, and added them to the herbs in her space.

She took advantage of the night when no one was around and refined a furnace of marrow cleansing pills in the space. She planned to use one of the pills to repay Zhang Ruize for saving her life.

"Okay, Miss Ye, please follow me!" Juan'er walked in front to lead the way.

The guest rooms in the Zhang Mansion were not far from Zhang Ruize's yard, and she and Juan'er arrived there in no time.

Ye Qingqing looked up at the three words "Linfengju" on the plaque in the courtyard. The writing was smooth and natural.

"Knock! Knock! Knock!"

"Who?" Zhang Ruize asked casually when he heard someone knocking on the door in the study.

"Sir, Miss Ye wants to see you!" Juan'er brought Ye Qingqing to Zhang Ruize's study. She knocked on the door first, and after hearing the response, she explained her purpose.

"Miss Ye, please come in!" When Zhang Ruize heard Juan'er say it was Ye Qingqing, he quickly stood up, opened the door of the study, and let Ye Qingqing in.

"Master Zhang, I came here today to say goodbye to you. I give you this marrow cleansing pill as a token of my gratitude for saving my life that day!"

Ye Qingqing took out a jade bottle from her sleeve and placed it on the table.

"Miss Ye..." Zhang Ruize was moved when he heard that Ye Qingqing gave him a marrow cleansing pill.

Because he knew what the Marrow Cleansing Pill meant to practitioners.

Zhang Ruize thought of the day when Juan'er changed Ye Qingqing's clothes and told him that Ye Qingqing had nothing on her body that day, but now, only a few days later, Ye Qingqing took out such a precious pill, the Marrow Cleansing Pill.

This made Zhang Ruize even more certain that Ye Qingqing must be from those three realms. After all, only the cultivators from those three realms could refine such elixirs.

But at the same time, Zhang Ruize felt uneasy because he was not sure whether he could keep Ye Qingqing.

"Miss Ye, I will also leave the mansion and return to Xuanqing College tomorrow. I wonder where you will go after you leave? Are you willing to go to Xuanqing College with me?" Zhang Ruize asked.

Ye Qingqing hasn't really decided where to go. She thinks going to Xuanqing College will make it easier for her to learn about Tianze Continent.

"Okay!" Ye Qingqing readily accepted Zhang Ruize's invitation and decided to go to Xuanqing College with him.

After Ye Qingqing and Zhang Ruize agreed to leave for Xuanqing College tomorrow, she and Juan'er returned to the guest room along the same route they came.

"Father!" Zhang Ruize came to his father's study in the front yard, holding the marrow cleansing pill that Ye Qingqing had just given him.

Originally, Zhang Ruize had the idea of ​​marrying Ye Qingqing because of her beautiful face and elegant temperament. But when he saw that Ye Qingqing could refine the marrow cleansing pill, this idea disappeared without a trace in an instant.

"Rui'er, your guess is correct. This Miss Ye is very likely from those three regions, so you can only make friends with her and never offend her."

The head of the Zhang family took the jade bottle handed to him by Zhang Ruize, gently opened the bottle cap, and an alluring elixir fragrance immediately wafted out of the bottle.

"Rui'er, take this marrow cleansing pill now, and your father will protect you!"

It’s not that the Zhang family father and son didn’t want to plot against Ye Qingqing, but they didn’t dare to.

When Ye Qingqing took out the marrow cleansing pill, they immediately realized that she was definitely not simple.

Because only alchemists can refine such pills, and to be able to train an alchemist, there must be strong family support behind him.

Therefore, Zhang's father and son immediately gave up their plans against Ye Qingqing.

Ye Qingqing didn't know yet that the elixir she took out as a way to repay her gratitude had saved her from a conspiracy.

The next day, early in the morning.

Zhang Ruize came to the door of the guest room early in the morning, dressed neatly.

He stood quietly outside the guest room, not letting Juan'er and the others disturb Ye Qingqing, waiting for Ye Qingqing to get up and go to Xuanqing College together.

Ever since his father had analyzed in detail yesterday that Ye Qingqing might have a powerful background, Zhang Ruize's original contempt for her disappeared instantly.

Now, his attitude towards Ye Qingqing has changed 180 degrees and become respectful and humble.

Zhang Ruize is well aware of his identity and status, and also understands who he can offend and who he absolutely cannot offend.

Faced with such a mysterious woman who might have a powerful background, he dared not have any unrealistic fantasies or offend anyone.

Zhang Ruize secretly told himself to keep a low profile and not bring unnecessary trouble to himself and his family.

Time passed minute by minute, the sun gradually rose, and the sunlight shone through the window onto the ground.

Finally, the door slowly opened and Ye Qingqing came out. She was wearing a light blue dress and had a graceful and beautiful figure.

Zhang Ruize immediately came forward with a smile on his face, "Good morning, Miss Ye."

"Morning, Mr. Zhang." Ye Qingqing responded politely.

Then, Ye Qingqing and Zhang Ruize walked out of the Zhang Mansion together and took a carriage to set off for Xuanqing College.
