As soon as Tang Rou finished speaking, Tang Ming and Liu Huai Qu looked at each other in embarrassment.

In fact, Tang Ming did not have any enmity towards Liu Huai Qu. On the contrary, he was slightly grateful to him. Regardless of what Liu Huai Qu's intentions were, he had never denied that he had helped Tang Ming solve a big problem by giving him the treasure map of the Wangyuan fruit.

The thing that Tang Ming did not understand was that Liu Huai Qu was very afraid of him, but Liu Huai Xuan was never afraid of Junior One who was by his Master's side. Why would he be afraid of a brat like him?

Yes, compared to Liu Huai Qu, Tang Ming was indeed a brat. Although Tang Ming was not impulsive, and because of his birth, he knew a lot of things, but relative to Tang Ming, in the past fifteen years, Tang Ming had been surrounded by all kinds of knowledge and martial arts. There was simply no way for him to have any time to learn about the ways of the world, even though Tang Ming's etiquette had never gone wrong up till now.

However, no matter how mature Tang Ming was, he was still just a kid who had just entered the martial arts world. Compared to the Liu Huai Qu who had dared to walk in the martial arts world when he was nine years old, Tang Ming still felt that he was still a little too inexperienced.

At the very least, Tang believes he is far inferior in skill and wisdom to Liu Huai Qu, even though Liu Huai Qu is only two years older than him.

Therefore, Liu Huai Qu's vigilance towards Tang Ming was very sudden.

Since his defenses were against Tang Ming, Liu Huai Qu was naturally on guard against Liu Huai Qu.

"Hey hey, why aren't all of you saying anything? Don't be like this, alright? If you guys have any conflicts, just say it out. Can we reconcile in front of each other?" Tang Rou'er stretched out her hands. One of her hands held Tang Ming's hand, while the other held Liu Huai Qu's hand. She placed both hands together: "It's settled, don't worry about the things from the past."

"Cough, cough …"

After Tang Rou'er released her hand, Liu Huai let out a cough and retracted his hand.

Tang Ming forced out a smile and stiffly changed the topic, "When will the Martial Arts Competition begin?"

"May next year." Liu Huai Qu's eyes rested on the jade ring on Tang Ming's hand. "This jade ring …"

"It was given to me by my family's elder. It was said to be a symbol." Tang Ming softly explained as the teacup in Liu Huaiqiu's hand fell to the ground.

This ring clearly should be …

"I know this ring. My aunt once wanted to give it to me, but I don't know why she went back on her word." Tang Rou'er pressed her index finger to her small mouth, "Now that I think about it, Aunty probably felt that my body wasn't too well, so she didn't want me to burden myself too much."

"Rou Er, don't interrupt." Tang Ming interrupted Tang Rou'er's words, and ignored her wronged expression: "The Liu Alliance … Wishing to know about this ring? "

"I don't know." Liu Huai Qu replied without thinking, "I just think that I like this jade ring a lot."

"Is that so?" Tang Ming looked at Liu Huai Qu with a smile that was not a smile: "I thought Xi Ji would say where I had seen him before."

"How could I possibly have seen the jade ring of the previous patriarch of the Tang clan?" Liu Huai Qu shifted his gaze away as if nothing had happened, and did not feel the slightest bit guilty.

"This is the Patriarch's token?" Tang Ming looked at the jade ring on his middle finger and then looked at Liu Huai Qu, "Can you explain to me that even I don't know what this jade ring represents? How would Hope know?"

Liu Huai Qu smiled gently, "That's not strange. After all, there are records of the Tang Family's castle in the martial arts world. I accidentally read it and I will remember it."

"Then why did Hope say that she didn't know about this jade ring when I asked her earlier?" Tang Ming didn't continue to be overbearing. "Hope, you're panicking."

Liu Huai Qu was silent for a moment before he gulped down the tea in his cup like a cow: "As expected of you, to be able to test me like this."

"After all, there are too many questions on Xi Ji's body. If I don't take the opportunity to unearth some of them, I'll continue to be this ignorant." Tang Ming was about to say something when he saw a white ball run in.

Liu Huai Qu smiled as he picked up Bai Dan and asked, "Rui Bai, where have you been these past few days?"

"Squeak, squeak ~ ~"

Rui Bai's fox claws patted Liu Huaiqiu's hand, his fox tail wagged again and again. It was only then that he noticed what Rui Bai was holding in his mouth.

Seeing the item in Rui Bai's mouth, Liu Huaiquan's expression changed as he quickly took off the jade ring in Rui Bai's mouth.

Although Tang Ming did not see the shape of the jade ring, he vaguely remembered that last time when it was still fragrant, Liu Huaijiu did indeed wear a jade ring on her finger.

Liu Huai Qu saw Rui Bai's begging expression and knew that if he didn't praise Rui Bai a bit, he would probably be in a bad temper again. He patted Rui Bai on the head and said, "Thank you, Rui Bai is awesome."

"Squeak, squeak ~ ~"

Rui Bai proudly raised his head, Tang Rou'er wanted to move and extended her claws towards Rui Bai.

"Zhi —"

Noticing Tang Rou'er's actions, Rui Bai raised his head and looked at Tang Rou'er. His black eyes seemed to be asking Tang Rou'er what she wanted to do to him.

"So cute, so cute. Brother Huai Qu, let me hug, let me hug." Tang Rou'er stared at Liu Huai Qu, her eyes sparkling.

"Rui Bai, go into Big Sister's embrace." Liu Huai Qu didn't directly give Rui Bai to Tang Rou'er. Instead, she spoke softly to Rui Bai.

Rui Bai's ears moved. Not long after, he stretched out his little claw at Tang Rou Er in a probing manner.

"Squeak, squeak ~ ~"

Tang Rou'er did not say anything as she hugged Rui Bai with a face full of satisfaction.

Tang Ming looked at Tang Rou'er, who was hugging the white ball, not letting go. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. After being harassed by the white ball and Tang Rou, Tang Ming couldn't continue probing Liu Huai Qu.

"There is still some time before the Martial Arts Competition. If you find it boring, you can make a trip to the Ghost sect." Liu Huai Qu looked at Tang Rou'er with a confused expression: "You can also bring Rou'er to broaden her horizons."

"Eh?" Tang Rou'er heard Liu Huai Qu talking about her, and raised her head in confusion: "Me? "Where am I going?"

"The gates of hell are too dangerous." Tang Ming did not understand why Liu Huai Qu suddenly made such a request. Although Tang Ming did not think that Liu Huai Qu would do anything bad to the siblings, he still frowned and refused, "I can't take Rou'er with me."

Liu Huai Qu explained with a smile, "It is dangerous for others, but not for Rou'er."

"Hmm?" Tang Ming looked at Liu Huai Qu with a puzzled expression. He knew that Liu Huai Qu had his own special information network, so he did not immediately refute Liu Huai Qu's words. Instead, he was waiting for the next part.

"Ghost sect leader, King Yan. Female gender, hobbies …" "Women …" Liu Huai Qu looked at Tang Rou'er and hesitated to speak. In the end, he said the rest of his words, "I especially like you, a naive little girl like you."
