The next day, Tao Tao woke up with a smile on her face. She felt happy and relaxed.

She was sitting at the dressing table combing her hair when she was suddenly awakened by a knock on the door. Tao Tao put on some rouge and said, "Come in."

Yiqing walked in from outside, holding an exquisite box in his hand.

"What is this?" Tao Tao asked, tilting her head.

Yiqing sat down beside her with a smile, looking closely at her face which had just been put on makeup.

His ears turned red, and he unconsciously moved closer to her and whispered, "A Tao, you are so beautiful."

Tao Tao was amused by his perverted expression. She turned around and said with a smile, "That's good. There were so many things going on these days that I was very casual. Now that things are over, I want to dress up."

Yiqing's eyes seemed to be glued to her: "A Tao is beautiful no matter what."

"Yes, yes, what do you want to talk to me about so early?" Tao Tao asked with a smile.

Yiqing opened the box and handed it to her.

Neatly arranged inside were two pairs of peach blossom hairpins, a pair of excellent jade bracelets, two necklaces and jeweled earrings.

Tao Tao's eyes widened and her mouth opened into a small O shape.

"Aqing, when did you buy it?" Tao Tao asked in surprise.

Yiqing said proudly: "I didn't buy it, I customized it."

Tao Tao picked up one of the hairpins with emotion: "It's very beautiful, but... isn't it very expensive?"

Yiqing put the box on the table, took the hairpin from Tao Tao's hand, and said in a very relaxed tone: "Silver is not worth mentioning, as long as Tao is happy."

He stood up and inserted the hairpin into Tao Tao's bun.

"This way they will know you have someone." Yiqing said again.

Tao Tao looked at herself in the bronze mirror. Her face turned red and even her eyes were misty. She felt so sweet in her heart, as if she was rolling in a honey pot.

Tao Tao stood up and held Yi Qing's hand: "I like it very much, but it can't be so luxurious..."

Yi Qing raised an eyebrow: "How can this be considered luxury? As a man, isn't it your duty to buy jewelry for the woman you love?"

There was no doubt in his clear eyes. Tao Tao smiled helplessly, there was nothing she could do about him.

"A Tao, you don't have to live here anymore. I've arranged a new house for you. It's right next to mine. It's bigger than this one, and I've also arranged two maids for you..."

"Wait!" Tao Tao was stunned and covered his mouth with her hand. "I can change rooms, but I don't need maids or anything like that, really!"

Yi Qing curled his lips and grabbed her wrist: "As my future wife, it would be normal for you to have a dozen maids, let alone two?"

Tao Tao pulled her hand out and clasped her hands together: "A Qing, I really don't need it, and..."

She blinked her eyes and said, "It's not easy for me to talk to you when there are outsiders around."

Yi Qing's Adam's apple rolled, and he reluctantly said, "Okay then, I'll ask them to clean up your room later."

He hugged Tao Tao's waist: "Are you hungry?"

Tao Tao touched her belly and said, "A little bit."

"Let's go and have dinner." Yiqing took her hand and walked outside.

Before the two reached the door, it was forcefully opened from the outside.

Meng Yin and Xu Zheng fell in front of them at once.

"Yinyin...Azheng, and Niannian!? What are you doing?" Tao Tao saw them like this, probably having heard a lot outside, and she didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment.

"Oh, this is our little Taozi's first time in love, we are just curious." Meng Yin nudged Xu Zheng with her elbow and said.

"Yes, yes!" Xu Zheng said quickly.

Tao Tao could only smile helplessly, "Then let's go eat together?"

Meng Yin immediately said, "No, no, the three of us have already eaten. You and Master Yi go ahead and eat. Have fun~"

When Tao Tao heard her tone, his eyebrows couldn't help but twitch.

Xia Nian pulled the two apart and said, "Okay, stop blocking them."

Seeing the three people making way for her as if it was a serious matter, she turned her head to look at them. Xia Nian didn't have any expression, Xu Zheng gave her a thumbs up, and Meng Yin had an auntie smile on her face, which made her at a loss for words.

Walking out to the corridor, Tao Tao suddenly thought of something. She turned to look at Yi Qing: "Ah Qing, how did you deal with Ban Meng?"

After saying this, she felt a little regretful. This was a matter within the Yiqing sect, how could she casually interfere?

Yiqing frowned, stopped and lowered his head.

Tao Tao thought he was angry, and quickly said, "Sorry, I'm just curious and want to ask. It's okay if you don't say it."

Yi Qing immediately grasped her shoulders, his eyes sincere and serious: "A Tao, remember, I will be the leader of Qianji Sect in the future, and you will be the leader's wife. There is nothing you don't know."

Seeing Tao Tao still in a daze, he chuckled and lightly scratched her delicate nose with his fingers.

"We were planning to kill her after she wrote down the evidence of Yi An's crime, but she died suddenly in prison." He said, "It's possible that someone did it on purpose."

Tao Tao frowned: "What about Yi An? Oh, I heard from Ah Shuo that there is a man in your sect who likes Ban Meng. How do you deal with this?"

"Although we know Yi'an is involved, Elder Han is missing and Ban Meng is dead, so there is no direct evidence pointing to Yi'an." There was a flash of reluctance in his eyes, "Yi'an also has a lot of power under his command. We'll see if we can find evidence against him in the future."

Yi Qing took her hand again and said, "As for my subordinate, it was because of his negligence that Ban Meng sneaked into our sect and was bewitched by her. Regardless of whether the plan was true or not, he told Ban Meng without any preparation. I am lucky that I didn't kill him directly."

Tao Tao thought for a while and said worriedly, "What if he harbors hatred..."

Yi Qing shook his head: "No, I saved his family. I just sent him to another unimportant position as a punishment."

Tao Tao stood on tiptoe and pinched his face: "It seems that Aqing still knows how to win people's hearts."

Yiqing grabbed her hand and smiled wickedly: "I also know how to win Ah Tao's heart."

Tao Tao puffed out her lips and muttered, "What's the big deal?" Then she turned her head and ignored him.

-

Lin Yue learned the news about the Xiaoyao Sect and promptly sent a message to Yi An, asking him to stay out of the spotlight first.

When he learned about this, he almost got angry.

It turned out that he was deceived by Yiqing, and what made him even more angry was that Tao Tao colluded with him to deceive him.

All her care and love were just sugar-coated bullets to deceive him.

Yi An laughed crazily, scaring Lin Yue who was standing beside him.

"Don't go crazy! Pack up and leave quickly." Lin Yue urged.

Yi An instantly put away the expression on his face. His face was pale and his whole body seemed to be wrapped in a piece of ice. Even though the sunlight shone on him selflessly, it could not melt him.

"I am indeed crazy," he said, "I should be even crazier."

He regretted, not because he had lied to Tao Tao, but because he had regretted not letting her stay with him forever before she left.

He did lie to her, but he really wanted to be good to her. He just hoped that Tao Tao only had him in her heart.

Yian turned around. He was no longer crazy because he had made up his mind.

He had thought that he would be alone and would gain nothing except schemes and power.

But Tao Tao appeared. She was like a breeze, giving his small boat, which was drifting alone on the water, the right to sail in another direction.

But now she had ruthlessly taken back this right and left him without any reluctance and mercilessly.

He knew clearly that Tao Tao hated him because he hurt the person she loved.

But why can't she just love herself? Is her love so selfless?

Of course, he would not think that he had brought it upon himself. He had only one thought at this moment, which was to find Tao Tao, because she was his.
