Everyone turned to look at Yang Xi Ruo with confused looks as they wondered what she was doing.

She just ignored them all as she turned to look at Ouyang Xun and said, “Young master Ouyang, I think that it’s time for you to honour your bet, right?”

Ouyang Xun had a very ugly look on his face when he heard this.

That was right, he had been planning on not keeping his end of the bet!

He had been planning on leaving the scene and then using rumours to discredit the bet so he wouldn’t have to give up his Child Soul Realm Artifact. But all of that had been ruined the moment that Yang Xi Ruo called out Ouyang Xun.

Ouyang Xun forced his expression to calm as he said, “Your highness, there’s no need to rush this, right?” There was also a hint of entreaty and threat in his voice when he said this.

It was clear that he was trying to force Yang Xi Ruo to back down.

But Yang Xi Ruo didn’t back down at all as she said, “Is there anything to rush? All you have to do is hand over the item right now and it’s over.”

Ouyang Xun’s brows twitched as he gave a snort in secret while thinking, “Just hand over an item? Is it really as simple as handing over an item?” But his expression stayed the same as he stared right back at Yang Xi Ruo.

After a pause, he finally said in a calm voice, “It’s such a precious item, you can’t expect me to carry it around with me, right your highness? I’ll send someone to fetch it and we’ll hand it over at another…”

Yang Xi Ruo cut him right off and said, “We’ll wait until they come.”

Ouyang Xun’s eyes narrowed and finally he couldn’t hold it in anymore as he glared right at her. He said in a deep and low voice, “Is that so, your highness?”

Yang Xi Ruo looked right into his eyes and said, “That’s right.”

Ouyang Xun’s flames of rage were about to explode and his aura burst forth, but Yang Xi Ruo wasn’t scared of him at all as she met him with her own aura.

Yang Xi Ruo was the daughter of a duke, so it wasn’t as if her aura was weaker than Ouyang Xun’s.

After matching gazes for a few seconds, Ouyang Xun was the one who turned away first.

After all, it wasn’t as if he could go all out against this duke’s daughter as the son of a count. There was a difference in status that he had to think about even if he was about to explode with rage.

But that didn’t mean that there wasn’t someone that he could vent all his anger on.𝒩𝒐𝒱𝓁xt.𝗇𝓔t

He turned his gaze away from Yang Xi Ruo and turned to look at Jun Xie while releasing all his aura to suppress him, but before he could do anything, Yang Xi Ruo was already standing in front of Jun Xie.

Seeing this, Ouyang Xun couldn’t help revealing a surprised look.

The bet was already over, so why was Yang Xi Ruo still protecting Jun Xie?

Could it be that there was something happening that he didn’t know about?

As he thought about it, he couldn’t help remembering something.

The Yang Family backed the sixth prince and the Jun Family was a neutral family, but the wealth that they had was enough that even the eighth prince that the Chen Family backed was moved. There were many princes that had tried to find a way to bring the Jun Family under them, but not a single one of them had been able to do so…

But this Jun Xie was the only heir to the Jun Family and Yang Xi Ruo was standing behind him now…Didn’t this basically mean that she had already accomplished her goal?

This honey trap really was something else.

Seeing that he had no other choice, Ouyang Xun gave a cough and said something to his subordinate before turning back to say to Jun Xie, “Junior Jun, you were quite good out there. Your performance really surpassed what I thought was possible and I have to admit that you are a rare talent. You don’t have to answer me now, but have you considered coming to work for me?”

Everyone was once again shocked when they heard what Ouyang Xun said.

One second he was using his aura to suppress Jun Xie and the next he was praising him like this…Not only that, he even offered him a chance to work with him…

This didn’t make any sense!

Not long after, while everyone was still stunned, the subordinate that Ouyang Xun had spoken to earlier came back with a sword in hand.

Ouyang Xun took that sword and placed it in front of Jun Xie before saying, “Congratulations on winning the bet, this is yours.”

Everyone revealed shocked looks once again because they could tell from the aura of this sword that it really was a Child Soul Realm Artifact.

Ouyang Xun was actually willing to hand this over that easily?

Just what was going on?

Even Yang Xi Ruo was a bit caught off guard by this as she never expected Ouyang Xun’s attitude to change this quickly.

Jun Xie looked at Ouyang Xun like he was meeting him for the first time and after a minute, he reached out his hand to take the sword as he wanted to test what Ouyang Xun’s intentions were.

However, as he reached out, he also made sure that all his senses were active so he could guard against anything.

But in the end, Ouyang Xun just handed over the Child Soul Realm Artifact like it was nothing.

Jun Xie even checked the artifact to see if there was anything wrong with it, but he found that it was just a normal Child Soul Realm Artifact.

All of this seemed like a dream as he couldn’t believe what was happening.

After Jun Xie took the Child Soul Realm Artifact, Ouyang Xun then said, “Let’s meet again in the future.”

Without waiting for Jun Xie to respond, he turned and walked away, leaving everyone standing there stunned.

After he had left the academy, Ouyang Xun waved his hand at one of his subordinates and said, “Go and investigate how his pet became stronger. It’s clear that Yang Xi Ruo trained him during this past week, but there must be something else happening with the pet since the Yang Family wouldn’t let their Monster Trainer work with an unaffiliated person.”

The subordinate gave a nod before running off.

Later on in Ouyang Xun’s private study, the subordinate came back with a comprehensive report about Jun Xie’s actions over the past week. Other than training with Yang Xi Ruo, the only thing that was off was how he always made sure to go to one store in the morning.

This store was naturally Lin Fan’s store.

After reading this report, Ouyang Xun knitted his brows and said, “It must be this store, but what’s so special about this store? How could they train his pet to that level?”

Thinking this, Ouyang Xun knew that he would have to make a trip himself to see what was special about this store.

At the same time, he could also bring someone else with him, someone very special…

On the other side, Yang Xi Ruo was currently celebrating with Jun Xie.

She had completely booked the restaurant so there were only the two of them here. However, Jun Xie didn’t seem to notice anything strange even though there was a candlelit dinner in front of him.

After all, he never would have imagined that someone like Yang Xi Ruo would ever be interested in him.

He had gotten stronger, but he still had the same weak mentality as before.

But before they could settle in, Yang Xi Ruo suddenly received a call.

When she saw who it was that was calling her, she revealed a look of disgust before excusing herself.

After picking up, she said, “What do you want?”

The other side spoke in a gentle voice despite her rude tone, “Ruo Ruo, there’s no need to be this fierce. I was just calling to check up on you because I heard some rumours from the academy today.”

Yang Xi Ruo knitted her brows as she said, “What does it matter to you? This is my own matter.”

The other side said, “Ruo Ruo, your business is my business, that’s just how it is.”

Yang Xi Ruo gave a snort before saying, “If you don’t need anything else, then I’m hanging up.”

The other side quickly said, “Wait, I do have something I want to talk to you about.”

Yang Xi Ruo didn’t hang up, but she didn’t say anything as she waited for the other side to speak.

The other side said, “I heard some rumours about a pet store opening up and I wanted to check it out. I want you to take me there.”

Yang Xi Ruo knitted her brows even more when she heard this as she asked, “Why should I do that?”

The other side said, “Well, I’ve heard that you’ve already been there before, so I wanted you to take me.”

Yang Xi Ruo was surprised to hear this, but then she quickly realized which store he was referring to which made her bite her lip.

It wasn’t the store that she was worried about, but rather Jun Xie.

After all, it was clear that he only wanted to go to the store to target Jun Xie.

So after thinking about it, she said, “Alright, I’ll bring you there tomorrow.”
