Just as Tuan’er mentioned, Yun Lingxuan was indeed getting a bit anxious at this moment!
Why hasn’t Tuan’er come back after such a long time?
Could it be that he refused?
Or was there some delay on the road?
These thoughts churned in Yun Lingxuan’s mind, making her restless.
In fact, right after Tuan’er left, Yun Lingxuan felt a bit regretful.
She shouldn’t have let Tuan’er go alone but should have gone herself.
After all, she needed to ask for a favor, and no matter how close Tuan’er was to her, he was just a maid; having a maid extend the invitation was indeed a bit impolite.
But now it was too late for regrets, and Yun Lingxuan could only hope that Tuan’er would return soon, so she could personally extend the invitation once more.
It was at this moment that Xue An and Tuan’er returned to Lou Wai Lou.
Seeing Xue An stride in with his tall and elegant demeanor, Yun Lingxuan couldn’t help but feel surprised.
Because she truly hadn’t expected Xue An to actually come.
But her reaction was quick, as she immediately stepped up to greet him and bowed with courtesy.
"Sir!"
Xue An merely smiled faintly at this, "Miss Yun, I never expected that after a short time apart, your grace has surpassed the past!"
Indeed.
At this moment, Yun Lingxuan was dressed in an elegant long dress, exuding a tranquil and virtuous aura like an orchid in a secluded valley.
Upon hearing Xue An’s praise, Yun Lingxuan blushed slightly, "Sir, you flatter me. This is not the place for talking; please, let’s go upstairs to converse!"
With that, Yun Lingxuan turned and personally led the way.
Xue An did not refuse, following her straight up to the second floor.
After taking their seats, Tuan’er busily brought tea and snacks for the two, then quietly stepped aside.
Xue An sipped the tea lightly without a word.
He stayed silent, so Yun Lingxuan also maintained her silence for a while.
Only after a long pause did Yun Lingxuan sigh, "Sir, I truly didn’t expect you to come in person this time."
Xue An chuckled serenely, "Since Miss Tuan’er personally visited, how could I not come?"
Then, Xue An placed down the tea cup he was holding and asked in a calm tone, "Honesty is always preferable. I wonder, Miss Yun, what might be the reason for your insistence on inviting me here?"
For a moment, Yun Lingxuan didn’t know how to begin. After carefully considering her words, she slowly spoke.
"Did you not say before that you wouldn’t attend this Grand Literature Meeting? Why did you suddenly arrive?"
Xue An smiled, "It’s simple. At that time, I had other matters to handle, so I had no plans to come to Xihua City for this so-called literature gathering. But after I completed my tasks, rumors spread outside claiming I was plagiarizing, so I came!"
Yun Lingxuan’s eyes lit up, "Are you truly not plagiarizing?"
Xue An gazed deeply at Yun Lingxuan, "What do you think?"
"I found it hard to believe as well, but back at the Ling’an Literary Meeting, you personally told me you copied from a poetry collection called Tang Poems Three Hundred, but when I returned and investigated, I found that no such book exists!"
"Of course, you won’t find it because I made it up!" Xue An said calmly.
"So you were lying about plagiarizing all along; you never did?" Yun Lingxuan immediately asked.
After recounting this period of joy, Yun Lingxuan’s tone shifted, her eyes filled with intense hatred.
"But later, my father suddenly died, and the vast Yun Family fell apart in just a few days, disappearing like smoke; even I barely escaped death!"
"Oh? Who did it?" Xue An raised his eyebrows and asked.
For a family like the Yun Family to hold influence in Central Region indicates significant power.
Yet such a presence was overthrown in only a few days, showing the one who struck must have formidable strength.
"It was an evil entity!" Yun Lingxuan forced out the words through gritted teeth.
These words made Xue An’s heart tremble, his eyes showing a dazzling light.
"An evil entity?"
"Yes! And it was a King among the evil entities, which is why our Yun Family was defeated so miserably!" Yun Lingxuan said through clenched teeth.
This piqued Xue An’s interest, as anything related to evil entities would capture his attention.
"What exactly happened? How did your Yun Family provoke a King of the evil entities?"
Yun Lingxuan shook her head, "Our Yun Family did not intentionally provoke it, but due to some matters, we caught the attention of this evil King. For such entities who have transcended worldly constraints, even an inconspicuous reason could evolve into a catastrophe, not to mention our Yun Family was already under its gaze!"
"With a simple thought, our Yun Family became doomed!"
"As you describe, this evil King is quite powerful?" Xue An raised an eyebrow and asked.
"Very powerful, to an extent that exceeds common understanding!" Yun Lingxuan said with a serious expression, while secretly observing Xue An’s reaction.
She had previously mentioned this to others, but no matter how powerful these individuals were, upon hearing that the opponent was a powerful evil King, their faces invariably showed a look of fear and difficulty.
