He looked at her, hot and intent, as if he couldn't see the view of the rising sun behind her, as if she were the only person in his world. Even after she had turned around and called out his name, his gaze still hadn't changed …

The gentle sunlight shone on his seductive face, softening his cold and hard facial features. The invincible heat of the sun seemed to melt his entire body, making him seem a little detached from the world, but not too far away.

At some point, Painted Ink had arrived at the Rising Sun Platform and was leisurely walking around a stunned man and woman. From time to time, he would look at one of them and then the other, as if trying to discern something from their silent expressions. Unfortunately, before he could figure out what was going on, his master had already flown away.

Only An Yu Chen stood blankly on the spot, annoyed at him for staring at Lou Yu Yuan who was in a daze just now.

Back at the Rain Tower, he changed out of his clothes that had been soaked in dew and finished his breakfast. The day that he had nothing to do began.

"You two, did you finish what I told you last night?"

"I was too busy looking for you in the morning to bother with it yet." Inside the basin with the hot water bottle, Cui Zhu was pinching An Yu Chen's feet.

An Yuchen disappeared early in the morning, and the palace was in a state of chaos. It couldn't be that they were afraid that she would run away and not be able to explain it to the Infernal King.

"Let's go then."

"Yes."

Roughly two hours later, the two maidservants returned.

The green lotus carried a pot and a bowl in her left hand, while the rice and vegetables in her right hand. Along the way, she had almost broken her arm. It was only because An Yuchen had discovered that there was an empty little room inside the building that she decided to use as a kitchen.

Cui Zhu was holding a large bundle of books. The weight of the books seemed to be crushing her.

"Did you greet Manager Xu, did you make things difficult for the both of you?" An Yuchen hurriedly came over to pick up some things, so that the two maids could breathe heavily.

"No." "No." Qing Lian and Cui Zhu shook their heads.

An Yu Chen nodded. It was just as she had guessed. Lou Qiuyuan must have told Xu Wansheng to do whatever he wanted with her.

"Blue Lotus, bring the things over to the small kitchen and tidy it up. There's no need for lunch. Just go to the kitchen and bring it over. " The main kitchen was too far from the Rain Tower. It would take him half an hour to walk back and forth. It was also troublesome to walk around three meals a day.

"Cui Zhu, come with me and bring the book into my room."

It was not easy to organize everything, and after lunch, he finally had time to sit down and rest.

Leaning back on the couch, An Yuchen casually picked up a book and began studying it.

"Mistress, what do you want these books for?" Cui Zhu's face was full of curiosity. These books were all about legends and ghosts, and many of them were frightening to look at. They couldn't understand why their master had asked her to find all the books in the study.

"The State Grandmaster said that I am a demoness. I'm very curious about the definition of a demoness in this era." The demons and gods talked a lot, but why didn't they mention teleportation? Could she be the first person to cross over in history? Placing the book aside, he picked up the other one.

In the four years he had spent in Yu City, he had not been able to find many books on the subject, but it had all been in vain. He thought that the books in the prince's mansion would definitely be richer, and now it seemed that he would also be disappointed.

"How can she be as beautiful as master!" Even if she was not convinced in her heart, Qing Lian had to admit that her mistress was even more beautiful than Wanqiu. Even as a woman, she felt astonished. At this moment, she was holding a comb and combing An Yu Chen's black hair.

"I would rather not be so beautiful. I would really wish that I was a witch." If she really was a demoness, then her situation wouldn't have been so passive. Put it down and pick up the other one.

Regardless of whether it was her wish or not, in this era, the little sister An that she lived in was definitely a devastatingly beautiful woman. This fact was known to her from the first moment she saw Sister An.

Actually, little sister An's mother, Lady Yu, was a beautiful woman. What was lacking in beauty was her low intelligence and her poor family background. As a result, she wasn't able to pick a good family. The Yu family had only married Master An because of a single bet.

It was said that Master An and the owner of another oil-umbrella workshop in Yu City had drunk too much one day, and the two of them had bet on whether it would be clear or rainy the next day. The loser has to marry Yu the Silly Beauty, and they have to share the bed until Yu gets pregnant and gives birth. Master An naturally took bets on the rainy day. Yu City had nine days to spare, even if it didn't rain, he wouldn't lose! That was Master An's plan at that time. As long as it wasn't a sunny day, he wouldn't lose!

Unfortunately, a human being is not as good as the heavens. The next day was full of sunshine. Master An could only marry Yu Shi into the household with a dark face. He was extremely unwilling, but had to abide by the rules of the gambling house and get married to Yu Shi, until she became pregnant with little sister An.

At first, Master An intended to make the day of Little Sister An's birth her day of sacrifice. Coincidentally, the esteemed monk, Master De Hai, passed by Master An's house. "We can't kill this woman. She should live well. One day, she might be able to prevent your An clan from being exterminated." Master De Hai's words had saved little sister An's life.

And this time, the An clan had indeed been spared the destruction of their clan because of her. So, could she think that the Grand Master De Hai, who knew the world from the heavens to the earth and the gods to the demons, was the key to her return to the twenty-first century?

"Green Lotus, Green Bamboo, have you ever heard of Grandmaster De Hai?"

"Of course I have. Grandmaster De Hai is the Senior Brother of Imperial Advisor." Cui Zhu answered.

"Moreover, Grandmaster De Hai had once calculated a death for His Highness." The Blue Lotus said.

"Oh, what did he say?"

"Master Dehai said that if Your Highness still fails to meet a person at the age of twenty-three who can dispel the curse of the sunlight stone on his body, then Your Highness will be stuck with the curse of the sun stone for the rest of his life." The green lotus answered truthfully.

Hearing the words of the green lotus, An Yuchen's heart inexplicably shook. Twenty-three years old. Lou Daiyuan was twenty-three years old this year, and she had met him that year.

No, no, no! All of this was just a coincidence! Furthermore, didn't Lou Qiuyuan have a Lady Wanqiu? Don't scare yourself and cause a ruckus! An Yuchen comforted himself.

"Did Grandmaster De Hai say anything about the person who solved the King's curse?"

"Speaking of which, that's strange. Master De Hai actually said that the person who can cure His Highness' poison does not exist in this world. Mistress, do you think those high monks can speak like crazy too? How could the king meet someone who did not exist in this world? Didn't that mean that the king was destined not to be able to break the curse? "You said …" The green lotus was still talking nonstop about what it was washing. An Yu Chen had long since been unable to hear it.

People who don't exist in this world. People who don't exist in this world. Wasn't this clearly referring to her?

After more than ten days of leisurely life, it was so peaceful that it was rather boring.

Four years ago, she was in charge of the company and had no time to rest. And the four years in the An clan didn't qualify for a rest.

"Cui Zhu, bring me a bowl of sweet potato and sweet bean soup." Cui Zhu, who had been helping in the kitchen, had good culinary skills.

"Alright." Cui Zhu accepted the order and left. At the door, he bumped into the flustered Qing Lian.

"Master An, this is bad, this is bad!"

"What is it?" "See how it frightens you!" An Yuchen slightly raised his head from his book and said.

"My prince, my prince is coming back!" Every time Lou Daoyuan left or returned, it caused a huge commotion in the Imperial City.

"This is his house, it's normal for him to come back." They had not seen each other since that day, and they heard that they had left the station.

"But... However... The Celestial Phenomenon Pavilion said that there would be heavy rain in the Royal Capital in the next two days. " The Blue Lotus said with a pale face.

Thanks to Lou Daiyuan's cloud-dependent curse, the ability to predict climate throughout the Imperial City and even the entire nation was astonishing. The Celestial Phenomenon Pavilion was one of the most authoritative climate prediction agencies. It said that there was a 99% chance that it would rain.

In contrast to Yu City, the imperial city rarely experienced cloudy or rainy days. A year's time would only be around ten to twenty days. This was probably the reason why the Emperor moved the Imperial City to this place four years ago.

"Isn't there a place to take refuge?" An Yu Chen sat up on the couch. The first thing the Emperor did after he relocated the Imperial City was to build a place of refuge so that he wouldn't kill everyone when Lou Liuyuan went berserk. But so far, so good. Because every time it was predicted that there would be rainy weather, Lou Qiuyuan would leave the Imperial City on his own and wait for the weather to improve before returning.

He came back after knowing it was going to rain?

"I heard that when the prince was in a fit of rage, he didn't acknowledge any of his relatives. Who knows if he would …" The more she spoke, the more frightened she felt. The green lotus stared wide-eyed, not even knowing where to put her hands and feet.

"That's true." After putting down the book, An Yuchen nodded her head. She had personally seen him in such a dire situation. He was indeed terrifying to the extreme. Wait until you and Cui Zhu pack up, and then go to the place of refuge and stay for a few days before coming back. "

"What about you, Master?" Cui Zhu, who had brought the sweet potato and red bean soup, was filled with fear and worry.

"Me? "Naturally." She didn't think herself to be an important person, but she was afraid that Lou Qiuyuan would suddenly think of her as someone who owed him her life. If she went to a shelter, it would likely become a slaughterhouse.

If Lou Qingyuan wanted her to die, she definitely wouldn't live past the fifth fragment of the night! Remembering Lou Yu Yuan in the rain, An Yu Chen felt a lingering fear. But what should come will eventually come!

"Why should I stay? Waiting for death? " The terrifying voice of the Grim Reaper rang out in the three people's ears, causing them to be shocked.

You really can't talk about people during the day, you really can't talk about ghosts at night.

The light gray robe was lined with golden lines that outlined the auspicious clouds. At his waist was a wide green belt with a pair of black boots. Today's Jiuyuan was completely unrelated to the white color.

As if entering his own room, Lou Qiuyuan walked directly to the side of An Yu Chen, lazily reclining on the couch.

"Cui Zhu, bring the sweet potato and red bean soup over for your highness to taste." Glancing at the calm and composed Lou Qiuyuan, An Yuchen regained her composure. She didn't seem to mind her disheveled hair and the unblemished beauty of her face at all as she spoke to the stunned Cui Zhu.

"Yes …" "It's …" Cui Zhu answered with a pale face.

"How did Xu Wansan do it? I picked a gutsy little servant girl for you!" Lou Qiuyuan said casually, not knowing if he was really angry.

"You really can't blame Steward Xu for this," she said as she walked over and took the sweet potato and red bean soup from Cui Zhu's hands. "Such a good item, it would be such a pity if it were to be overturned." Your highness is' famous' outside, not many would dare to come into your mansion and do things! " It would already be great if there was someone serving them, so there was no need to bother about their nimble hands and feet.

"It is This King's fault."

"One cannot be too kind if they know their wrongs and can correct them!" An Yuchen handed the sweet potato and red bean soup in her hand to Lou Qiuyuan. "Have a taste, this gutsy little girl has pretty good culinary skills."

"Looks like your life in This King's residence isn't bad." He took the bowl, picked up the spoon, scooped up a spoonful and drank it.

"Thanks to you." Eating and drinking well while not needing to work at all, in these few days, she had indeed gained quite a bit of weight. Her complexion had also reddened, and she had regained her spirit.

"That's right!" Lou Yu Yuan slightly nodded, I don't know whether to say that the sweet potato and red bean soup is good, or that the "blessings on you" is good.

"I heard that it's going to rain in the Imperial City …"

"You want to ask, why did This King come back at this time?" A bloodthirsty smile suddenly appeared on Lou Qiuyuan's pretty face. "What if I said it was to kill you?"

With two bangs, Qing Lian and Cui Zhu sat on the ground with fear on their faces.

An Yuchen's expression did not change, and she was shocked in her heart. She never thought that the answer would be like this!

"Can you control yourself, after you kill me?" Would he stop if he killed her? Would it be able to dispel the curse of the sunlight stone on his body?

"Maybe!" After finishing the sweet potato and red bean soup, Lou Yu Yuan stood up and looked at An Yu Chen. "Do you want to run?"

"I …" Pausing, he shook his head. "No."

"Why? Not afraid of death? "

He shook his head again, "I can't say that I'm not afraid, I just feel that... It seems that you want to accept the arrangements of fate. " Didn't they say that life and death are up to fate?

"That's good." Lou Qiuyuan left the Rain Tower with these two meaningful words. There were only three frightened people left in the room.

"Master... Master, your highness … Your Highness, how could he … How can he talk to you like that? " After confirming that there was no one outside, the green lotus stammered.

"Yes." "Yes." Ning nodded. Tell me every minute that he wants to kill me! "

"No!" What this servant meant was … Your highness is always like this to you... A conversation? "

"Did he use his nose when talking to others?" The shocked expression on the face of the green lotus seemed to have discovered some enormous secret.

"How is this possible!?" "The Prince rarely talks to anyone, even to Lady Wanqiu. In all these years, he hasn't talked to you as much as he does today …"

"This is the first time I've seen or heard a prince speak with my own eyes!" Cui Zhu said after coming back to her senses.

Then the three of them looked at each other in silence.

If Cui Zhu, who had been in the palace for two years, heard Lou Daiyuan's speech for the first time today, she felt that it was very normal. Furthermore, Lou Daiyuan was not a chatterbox. However, the green lotus said that he did not even speak when he was with Lady Wan Qiu … When I was with her. This time, Lou Qiuyuan really came back to kill her!

In a man's eyes, there are only two special situations in a woman: she likes them, or she hates them. She knew she was a disaster, but what man would keep repeating that he was going to kill a woman he really liked?

So, it must be extremely annoying! What happens to things that you hate? Of course it was destroyed!
