Chapter 135 – Hey Friend, Have You Heard of ‘Siscon’? (35)
The car drove smoothly, and the surrounding scenery wasn’t much different from the bustling of the Alliance.
Yan Luo leaned against Lu Buchi, holding a warm cup of milk in her hands, sipping it slowly.
Because Lu Buchi was there, Di Tian couldn’t get too close to Yan Luo. He also remembered the Emperor’s instructions not to provoke the Alliance too much, especially not to give them any handle on their territory.
So he could only indirectly talk to Lu Buchi, occasionally diverting the conversation to Yan Luo.
But Lu Buchi was the type who only responded with a few words, and Yan Luo didn’t care much, which made Di Tian’s expression increasingly difficult to maintain.
Finally arriving at the school accommodation, it was evident that the Imperial Academy had put in effort. The three-story building was no worse than where Yan Luo lived at home.
However, Lu Buchi’s eyes darkened. The better the conditions meant the more they wanted.
As he escorted the silent Yan Luo into the house, Lu Buchi naturally blocked Di Tian from following. His tone was friendly but firm, as he explained that Yan Luo wasn’t feeling well and needed rest.
Not feeling well? Dizzy? Given the current technology, saying Yan Luo might get airsick was just spouting nonsense. But Di Tian couldn’t say anything else to Lu Buchi.
All Di Tian could do was smile awkwardly and say, “Then I won’t disturb Miss Yan’s rest. Someone will come to inform her of the arrangements later.”
Seeing that Lu Buchi showed no intention of moving, as if determined to stand guard at the door until he left, Di Tian smiled and left without looking back.
If Lu Buchi kept guarding like this, it wouldn’t do. Di Tian needed to report this situation to the Emperor and discuss it.
Watching the car disappear into the horizon, Lu Buchi raised an eyebrow slightly, his aura darkening.
The Empire…
Concealing his emotions, Lu Buchi finally pushed the door open.
After a day of settling paperwork and arranging the house, the Imperial Family didn’t make any moves against Yan Luo.
Though Lu Buchi was supposed to protect Yan Luo, he had his own matters to attend to. With Yan Luo’s status, there wasn’t anyone within the Imperial Academy who dared to approach her, so they peacefully passed some time. But eventually, the Imperial Family started to act.
While the Crown Prince, Di Fan, was busy and didn’t have much time, Di Tian relentlessly pursued Yan Luo.
Whether at school or elsewhere, whenever Lu Buchi wasn’t with Yan Luo, Di Tian would annoyingly pester her, regardless of her attitude towards him.
Yan Luo grew irritated by his persistence, but she noticed something sensitive: Lu Buchi seemed to have been consciously ignoring Di Tian’s advances for some time. Yet, despite Yan Luo’s annoyance with Di Tian, Lu Buchi’s blackening gradually decreased, finally stabilizing at 70.
Rarely finding a moment to relax, Yan Luo found a quiet spot at school, hugged her book, and couldn’t help but whisper to Little Pink inside her mind, “Why do I feel like, judging by the recent actions of that Elder Brother, he’s planning some big move?”
