At that moment, Jiang Shengjun, who had been following the pair, entered the alley and witnessed the scene before him.
When he saw Bu Shiyi smile, he froze for a second.
Suddenly, a strong sense of unease gripped his heart.
Who is that man? Bu Shiyi, who is always polite to everyone, is smiling at him? Am I seeing things?
A series of questions swirled in Jiang Shengjun's mind as his gaze sharpened on Luo Chuan.
This person is dangerous...
Luo Chuan, still unsure why the newcomer was glaring at him so intently, glanced over at Jiang Shengjun.
"Jiang Shengjun, what are you doing here?" Bu Shiyi asked, her brows furrowing as her sweet voice rang out.
"Exactly! Why are you following us?" Bu Lige added, clearly dissatisfied.
Jiang Shengjun, despite his obvious discomfort, quickly regained his composure. His well-maintained appearance was unruffled as he flashed a bright smile, swinging his folding fan. "Poetic, I was just curious. I wanted to know what could possibly attract you to this alley."
Bu Shiyi looked at him coldly, her tone indifferent. "Well, now you know. You can leave."
Jiang Shengjun's smile faltered, but he knew better than to press the matter. Despite his arrogance, he could sense the difference in strength between them.
Suppressing the anger rising within him, he managed to maintain the same smile.
Luo Chuan observed this interaction, a little amused. So, this is what a lovesick person looks like...
Jiang Shengjun quickly switched the subject. "I didn't expect a shop to be in such a remote alley. You sure have a lot of interest in unusual places."
Luo Chuan simply ignored him, making Jiang Shengjun feel even more frustrated.
"New products have just arrived in the store," Luo Chuan remarked casually to Bu Lige and Bu Shiyi.
"Just as expected! You didn't lie to me, boss!" Bu Lige grinned, unable to hide his excitement.
He quickly grabbed Bu Shiyi's arm, eager to head inside.
"Sis! I've got enough spirit crystals today! Let me treat you!"
"You promised," Bu Shiyi replied with a knowing smile.
"Of course! When a big man speaks, it's hard to go against him..." Bu Lige beamed.
Jiang Shengjun, still standing outside, glanced from Luo Chuan, who was lounging on his recliner, to the store. A gust of wind swept by, and he felt a sudden wave of awkwardness.
After a moment of hesitation, he too made his way toward the store.
Luo Chuan didn't stop him, as he was a guest. The only requirement was to follow the store's rules.
As Jiang Shengjun entered, he couldn't shake his growing doubts. The conversation between Bu Shiyi and Bu Lige had been quite loud, yet everything seemed silent the moment they stepped inside the shop.
But as he crossed the threshold, the sound of a pleasant voice greeted him.
"Welcome!"
The voice seemed to hold an enchanting power, resonating deep within his heart.
When he looked up, he was met with the sight of a woman with purple hair and purple eyes.
If Bu Shiyi was stunning, then the woman before him was like a celestial being who had wandered down to Earth. She radiated beauty and elegance, with an air of purity and innocence.
Jiang Shengjun's eyes widened in recognition. "No!" he exclaimed, his face paling. "Purple hair and purple eyes... You're from the monster royal family of the Nine Stars Mountain Range!"
As the son of the Left Prime Minister, Jiang Shengjun had extensive knowledge and was well-versed in the rarer details of the Nine Stars Mountain Range.
His knowledge led him to easily identify her heritage. The unique features of Yao Ziyan immediately gave her away as a member of that prestigious bloodline.
