When a person is alone, he doesn't have to worry too much. After having a wife, it's equivalent to having the other half of your life. Whether it's your temper, personality, or the way you conduct yourself, you have to take care of the other half. You have to restrain yourself a little. You can't treat her as if she doesn't exist and still do things your own way. What's done by two people naturally isn't the matter of just one person.
Miao Yi knew that Yun Zhiqiu must be very anxious, so he quickly disguised himself and made his way to the tavern.
Even though Ba Jie had told her that he was fine, Yun Zhiqiu heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Miao Yi had returned unscathed. She asked, "Niu Er, are you alright?"
Miao Yi sat to the side and shook his head. "What could possibly happen? It's still that cowardly Commander I told you about."
Yun Zhiqiu poured a cup of tea and placed it beside him. Then, he sat down and asked, "Why did he capture you for no reason?"
"It's not really an arrest, but there's no reason to reason with that guy. He has a powerful background, so it's fine if he messes around. It's good that he didn't kidnap you directly."
"There must be a reason for taking you away, right?"
Miao Yi actually didn't want to mention anything about Huangfu Jun to her. He smiled bitterly and said, "You've seen the reason. The manager of the Hall of Heroes, Huang Fujun? Y, this cowardly commander has taken a liking to her. He knows that I know Shopkeeper Huangfu, so he's forcing me to be a matchmaker. She doesn't like him, but he won't let her go. What can I do? "
"So that's how it is." Yun Zhiqiu nodded. "That Shopkeeper Huangfu's looks are indeed extraordinary. It's only natural for her to have suitors."
Miao Yi picked up his teacup and took a sip to moisten his throat. He muttered, "Madam, you've seen everything here. Isn't it time for you to go back? I'm afraid Weiwei isn't familiar with many things. "
"What's wrong?" Yun Zhiqiu narrowed his eyes and said in an unfriendly tone, "You think I'm an eyesore and want to chase me away?"
Miao Yi let out a long sigh. "Sigh! I wouldn't dare! Earlier, when Second Brother suddenly barged into the governor's manor, it truly gave me a fright. Let me tell you the truth, you don't have a stable place to stay in this inn. Who can guarantee that you will be safe if you stay here? If we sneak around like this, we would be discovered sooner or later. It wouldn't be good for you and I'm worried about your safety. You won't be able to work in peace, and you won't be able to cultivate in peace. Do you understand? "
So he was worried about her safety! Yun Zhiqiu's heart was filled with sweetness, and she gave him a tender look. She stood up and walked over. She straightened her skirt and sat on his lap again. She hooked her arms around his neck and said softly, "It's not difficult to find a stable place to stay. We can just open a shop on Sky Street. Isn't jewelry selling well here? Let's think of a way to open our own shop, okay? Don't you have some connections here? Can you help me set up a shop? "
Miao Yi scratched his head. "I have the same plan. It shouldn't be difficult to find connections to squeeze out a store. However, those who have connections can't just give it away for no reason. We don't have that much money on hand at the moment. Buying a store in Sky Street costs a lot of money, and we need funds for the expansion of the grocery store. I'm afraid we'll have to wait for the sharp reduction in dividends. "
"Wait, it's fine. Niu Er, I'll take that as a yes," Yun Zhiqiu said seriously as she cupped his face.
Actually, with Huangfu Jun? Miao Yi didn't want Yun Zhiqiu to come before he clarified his relationship with Y. He figured that he could just drag it out for now. He didn't have a specific time anyway, so he could just come up with an excuse when the time came. He nodded and said, "How can I not do my best when it's something Madam wants?"
Yun Zhiqiu immediately beamed with joy. She kissed Miao Yi with her alluring lips, her tongue pushing Miao Yi's teeth open on its own accord.
As long as he could coax her into a happy mood, everything would naturally be negotiable. After their lips parted, she wrapped her arms around Miao Yi's neck and said, "It's fine to go back first. I've already thought it through. We can't just focus on selling jewelry. I'll first get a batch of Purple Crystals and Red Crystals back and have Mantis process them. We'll stock up first. Once the store is set up, we can sell both jewelry and high-purity essence powder and artifact refining materials. The profits should be pretty good. "
Miao Yi couldn't wait for her to leave. He quickly nodded in agreement and said, "First, get me a set of defensive armor. I'll give it to Yao Ruoxian to refine later. I won't feel at ease without something to protect myself with."
When she heard that his safety was at stake, Yun Zhiqiu's expression turned serious. She thought to herself that she had to hurry back as soon as possible and shouldn't dawdle here any longer. She nodded and said, "Alright. I'll buy some things tomorrow and return the day after." She then moved her lips to Miao Yi's ear and whispered enticingly, "But you have to stay here and serve me well for the next two nights. If you don't do your best to feed me, I won't leave."
Miao Yi naturally obeyed …
Afterwards, Miao Yi took out a large amount of Purple Crystals and Red Crystals from the general store and handed them to Yun Zhiqiu so that she could bring them back to prepare. He then contacted Zhongli Kuai. Zhongli Kuai had already left the Skytraversing Palace. However, it would take him more than enough time to send Yun Zhiqiu back before returning.
On the morning of two days later, the two of them crawled out of bed naked. After getting dressed and washing up, they went to Ba Jie's room to look for him. However, they couldn't knock on Ba Jie's door. There was no response from inside. They pushed the door open and looked inside, but there was no sign of Ba Jie.
All they saw was a jade disk on the table. Miao Yi picked it up and looked at it. His expression immediately darkened.
"What's wrong?" Yun Zhiqiu immediately took the jade disk from his hand and looked at it. After looking at it, her expression changed and she shouted, "Nonsense! Niu Er, when you find him, beat him to death! If you're not going to help me, then I won't hold back anymore! "
Ba Jie left. To be more precise, he ran away. When the bastard heard that he was going back, he was unhappy. He said that there was no point in going back to the small world. He hadn't even seen what the outside world was like yet, so he didn't want to go back now. As such, he left behind a letter and snuck away. He even told Big Brother and Sister-in-law not to worry, and that he would contact Miao Yi at the Morality Goods Store once he was done with his travels.
Miao Yi quickly took out the Starbell and contacted Ba Jie. He had already given Ba Jie another Starbell for ease of communication, but no matter how he tried, Ba Jie wouldn't respond.
Miao Yi was sure that the bastard had already received his message and was purposely not replying. Miao Yi then informed Ba Jie that he wouldn't let him go back, but that he had something to tell him in person.
Ba Jie wasn't that gullible. He wouldn't respond, and Miao Yi had no idea where he was hiding.
"Wait here for now. I'll go ask around and see if he's left the city!"
Miao Yi said, then left for Xiahou Long Cheng's place. He asked Xiahou Long Cheng to help him ask the guards at the city gates. After all, Ba Jie's appearance was too eye-catching. There was no way the guards wouldn't recognize him if he left the city, unless that bastard was in disguise.
Speaking of Ba Jie's disguise technique, Miao Yi felt a headache coming on. It was truly ever-changing.
Such a small favor wasn't a problem for Xiahou Long Cheng. He immediately sent his men to the four city gates to ask around, and soon received a reply. Someone had indeed seen Ba Jie leave the city, and he left through the northern gate.
Miao Yi immediately rushed out from the northern gate and began searching everywhere. However, Heaven's Origin Planet was so vast, and Ba Jie had the intention to hide. Who the hell would be able to find him? Miao Yi was so furious that he immediately rang the Starbell and warned Ba Jie to return immediately. Otherwise, he would teach Ba Jie a lesson.
Ba Jie refused to budge and simply didn't respond. At a time like this, it was useless no matter what reason you gave him. Even if you told him that Miao Yi was dead, Ba Jie wouldn't believe you. This monk had already made up his mind to run away. It wouldn't be easy to pull him back.
Miao Yi returned to the tavern and waited for another day. The deadline had passed, but Ba Jie still hadn't returned.
Having grown up together, Miao Yi knew all too well what kind of person Ba Jie was. Ba Jie was wicked and audacious. He would hide his evil deeds as much as he could, unless he had no other way out. Otherwise, if you couldn't catch him, he would never willingly return to be punished.
Seeing that they couldn't find Ba Jie, Yun Zhiqiu sneered, "Then let's not look for him for now. Let's go back and look for Grandmaster Qi Jie. Ask his master to order Little Brother to come back. When you're back, you can go and bring him back."
Miao Yi gritted his teeth and said, "You don't know what kind of person Little Brother is. He's a weirdo who can hide in a nunnery and become an abbot. There's no way Grandmaster Qi Jie will be able to pull him back. Little Brother has betrayed the sect countless times and ran away. If he wasn't always captured, do you think Grandmaster Qi Jie would be able to keep him in check? He's someone who can call Grandmaster Qi Jie a bald donkey every time he opens his mouth. Finding Grandmaster Qi Jie is useless! "
Yun Zhiqiu was shocked. "Betrayed the sect countless times? Calling Grandmaster Qi Jie a bald donkey? This … Niu Er. Why haven't I heard you mention this before? "
She realized that this little brother-in-law of hers was even more devilish than a Devil Nation member like her. Even a Devil Nation member couldn't just casually betray the sect for fun, right?
"Have you ever seen anyone willing to expose their family's dirty laundry for no reason?" Miao Yi wiped his face with both hands and spat, "You brat! Don't let me catch you!"
There was no other way. It wasn't very possible to find Ba Jie like this. The two of them didn't have the strength to search the entire Heaven's Origin Planet either. They could only return for now. They couldn't possibly wait for Ba Jie to return forever.
The starry sky was vast. Yun Zhiqiu marked out the return route along the way. Once they had obtained the entire map, they returned to the small world as well.
The time they spent traveling back and forth, including the time they spent in the outside world, was less than a month. Seeing them return, Qin Weiwei finally heaved a sigh of relief.
As soon as she reclaimed her authority, Yun Zhiqiu immediately went to tend to the praying mantises. Perhaps it was because she was used to doing business, but she was very interested in opening a shop in Celestial Street. She temporarily tossed Miao Yi aside.
However, Miao Yi wouldn't feel lonely now. He had plenty of companionship. He wandered to the Crepe Myrtle Palace alone, intending to stay for three days before leaving. This was also Yun Zhiqiu's idea. She didn't want the newly married concubine to feel lonely, lest others accuse her of being a harsh wife.
As soon as she was notified, Qin Weiwei hurriedly led Hong Mian and Lu Liu to welcome him. She half-knelt and greeted, "Old Master!"
Miao Yi always felt that this form of address was a little strange. He had accidentally turned it into 'Old Master'. However, he had no choice. She only addressed him as' Husband 'on their wedding night. After that, only Miao Yi and Yun Zhiqiu could address each other as' Husband 'and' Madam '. A concubine was a concubine. There was no way she could be on equal footing with the Madam.
Miao Yi gazed at Qin Weiwei, who had a slight smile on her face. Even though she was still wearing the white dress that she always liked to wear, she had changed from her usual capable female attire to that of a married woman. Her hair was also tied up in a more formal manner, indicating that she was already a married woman. Miao Yi couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Miao Yi reached out to support her, then held her hand as they walked side by side. He casually said, "I'll be spending the night at your place."
