“Xue’er, what attribute is your spiritual power?” The spiritual power attributes of the Leng family were basically wind or fire. He had both wind and fire attributes, so spiritualists of the same rank were generally not his opponent. Otherwise, he would not be called a peak Spiritual Sovereign powerhouse.

“I’m not sure either!”

“It’s okay. Grandpa has test crystals. Grandpa will test it for you when there’s time.” It was difficult to see the attributes of others unless they used spiritual skills. However, Xue’er had just become clear-headed, and he guessed that she had yet to understand many things very well. It was normal not to know what her attributes were. In fact, spiritualists who had just awakened could go to the Spiritualist Guild to test their attributes so that they could practice spiritual skills that suited them. Most large families had crystals ready for testing in order to facilitate testing the younger generations in the family.

“My little Xue’er is now clear-headed, has become a spiritualist, and is a little beauty of the country. Let’s see what other reasons Seventh Prince Li Yu has not to marry you this time.” Leng Qingtian caressed Leng Ruoxue’s head lovingly as the topic turned to her marriage. In fact, he had thought about it on the way back. He didn’t like the seventh prince at all, nor did he want to become related through marriage to the imperial family. But since Xue’er liked the seventh prince so much, then the seventh prince had to marry her no matter whether he liked her or not. He had no say in it. How dare he want to break off the engagement. He was just an idiot dreaming.

“Grandpa, I don’t want to marry the seventh prince.” Leng Ruoxue pouted her pink lips and looked at her grandfather with watery eyes.

“Uh… isn’t the seventh prince Xue’er’s favorite? Why don’t you want to marry him?” It was best not to marry him since there were many problems with the imperial family, but he still had to ask clearly.

“Hmph! He despised me and got others to humiliate me when I was a fool. Now that I am better, I understand now, so I don’t want him anymore.”

“Yes, you don’t need him. He might be a prince, but he is not worthy of my Xue’er. Tomorrow, Grandpa will enter the palace to break the engagement for my dear Xue’er.” General Leng was extremely protective. His family’s children were good no matter how they were, and no one could bully them!

“Grandpa, the engagement must be broken, but Xue’er’s injury this time can’t remain unsettled!” Leng Ruoxue reminded him with a fox-like smirk.

“Don’t worry. Grandpa knows what to do. Grandpa won’t let Xue’er be wronged.” Leng Qingtian wouldn’t let anyone hurt his precious granddaughter.

“Xue’er knows that Grandpa loves Xue’er the most.”

“Grandpa, wait for me for a while!” Leng Ruoxue thought about it and ran out.

After a short while, Leng Ruoxue returned with a large white porcelain bowl in her hand.

“Xue’er, what do you have in your hand?”

“Grandpa, try it!” Leng Ruoxue put the bowl in front of Leng Qingtian, looking at him expectantly.

“Noodles?”

“Yes, Xue’er made it myself. Grandpa, try it! “Leng Ruoxue was very confident in her cooking skills. In her previous life, she was not only a gourmet but also had good culinary skills. She was definitely able to match up to those famous chefs.

“Okay, okay. Grandpa will try it.” Leng Qingtian picked a few strands with a pair of chopsticks and put them in his mouth. He was stunned and continued. He emptied the bowl in no time.

“Grandpa, how is it? Is it delicious?” Leng Ruoxue was a little uncertain. There were too few seasonings in this world, and the ingredients were a little different, so she could not replicate the taste from her previous life.

“It’s delicious. Delicious!” Leng Qingtian even drank every drop of the soup. Originally, he was thinking he would say it was delicious even if it was not delicious. After all, it was Xue’er’s act of filial piety!

“When did Xue’er learn to make noodles?” Leng Qingtian was surprised while still feeling a little unsatisfied. He had never eaten such delicious noodles!

“Xue’er saw the cook making it in the mansion previously, so Xue’er tried to make it by myself these few days. Xue’er remembered that it was Grandpa’s birthday the day before yesterday, so Xue’er wanted to make it for Grandpa.” Leng Ruoxue had already thought about the reason just now, and the noodles were indeed made by her. It would have been difficult to explain otherwise. She did it because she was moved by the unconditional love of her grandfather. The familial affection she craved in her previous life came through in this life, so she cherished it.

“Xue’er is so filial. Grandpa didn’t dote on you for nothing!” Leng Qingtian was very pleased that his granddaughter was so good.

…

“Miss, you’re awake.” Lü Tao heard the faint sound on the bed and pulled the pink bed curtain away. She had chatted with the old master until late last night, so she thought the young miss would sleep a bit more!

“Well, today’s weather is good.” Leng Ruoxue sat up on the bed and looked at the warm sunshine outside the window.

“Yes, today’s weather is good, and it’s Valentine’s Day in the Eastern Lagoon Empire. There are many people on the streets!” Cui Zhu walked in with a water basin and a face full of excitement.

Leng Ruoxue got dressed, washed up, and then asked Lü Tao to help her with a simple hairstyle.

“Valentine’s Day?” She did not expect this world to also have Valentine’s Day. Leng Ruoxue was a little curious since she did not know how different it was compared to Valentine’s Day in her original world.

“Miss, this Valentine’s Day has a history!” Cui Zhu deliberately created suspense.

“Tell me about it!”

“According to the historical records of our Eastern Lagoon Empire, today is the day when the founding emperor and the empress of the Eastern Lagoon Empire became engaged. To commemorate their feelings, they set today as Valentine’s Day. It is said that all the men and women who are engaged today will be blessed by the founding emperor,” the simple little girl said with yearning.

Leng Ruoxue nodded in understanding. “Cui Zhu is already an adult and thinking about love.”

“Miss, you’re bullying me.” Cui Zhu blushed and looked at her evil miss with tears in her eyes threatening to spill out at any moment.

“Is Grandpa up yet?” Leng Ruoxue looked at Lü Tao, who had already set breakfast up.

“Old Master has entered the palace.”

Leng Ruoxue didn’t expect her grandfather to enter the palace so early. She knew that it was all for her. She was so touched and felt so happy that there was a grandfather who treated her like a princess and loved her unconditionally.

“Cui Zhu, sit down and eat.” Leng Ruoxue saw Cui Zhu still standing even though Lü Tao was already seated. Cui Zhu was still looking at her with an incomparably resentful look. Leng Ruoxue could not help but find this simple child funny.
