Ren Chen awkwardly scratched his head.
“Your Highness, my injuries have already healed,” Ren Chen replied truthfully.
“It’s alright. If your body hasn’t fully recovered, I will continue to arrange for Ling’er to take care of you,” Leng Ruo Li said deliberately.
“No, no, Your Highness. My injuries are completely healed and I don’t need Ling’er’s care. Just now, I was just joking with Ling’er,” Ren Chen explained, his face flushing with embarrassment.
Upon hearing this, Leng Ruo Li raised an eyebrow slightly, while Ling’er’s expression was one of speechless resignation.
“Alright, I won’t tease you any further. Take a few more days to recuperate if you wish, as there’s nothing urgent at the moment.”
With that, Leng Ruo Li and Jun Mo Han left Ren Chen’s room.
In the middle of the night, Leng Ruo Li brought Jun Mo Han back into the spatial realm.
Leng Ruo Li busied herself in the laboratory for a while, while Jun Mo Han practiced his sword on the grassy plains of the realm.
Before long, Leng Ruo Li also arrived on the plains with several bags of grass seeds.
“Jun Mo Han, I found a few bags of grass and flower seeds at the supermarket. I want to scatter them on the plains. I wonder if they will sprout?”
Hearing Leng Ruo Li’s voice, Jun Mo Han stopped his movements and glanced at the small bags in her hand. He comforted her, “Let’s plant them and see. The soil here is so fertile, they should sprout.”
“Okay, you help me scatter the seeds too.”
As Leng Ruo Li spoke, she handed two or three bags of seeds to Jun Mo Han.
After taking the seeds, Jun Mo Han found a spot near the edge to scatter them.
Leng Ruo Li also found a patch of grass to sow seeds. However, just as she was halfway through, her golden eagle flew out from the grove.
But Xiao Xue Hu and Xue Jiao continued to sleep soundly in the newly developed grove within the realm.
Immediately, the golden eagle flew to Leng Ruo Li’s side. Leng Ruo Li reached out and stroked its wings, smiling as she said, “Little Eagle, I’ve scattered grass and flower seeds all over my plains. You three beasts must not mess with my grass again, or I won’t let you play in my realm anymore.”
Hearing this, the golden eagle let out a few “ji ji ji…” sounds.
“No, no, Master, I will help you guard these flowers and plants. Please don’t send me outside.”
“That depends on your performance. If you ruin my medicinal garden and vegetable patch again like last time, I’ll kick you all out.”
Leng Ruo Li’s words to the golden eagle were laced with threats, which startled the eagle into shaking its head and chirping incessantly, constantly making promises to Leng Ruo Li that it would absolutely not damage a single blade of grass or plant on the realm’s plains again.
Later, the two of them, along with the eagle, busied themselves scattering flower and grass seeds on the plains.
After Leng Ruo Li and Jun Mo Han finished scattering the seeds, Leng Ruo Li returned to her villa. Then, she selected ten beautiful ancient costume dress patterns from the computer in her laboratory. After carefully modifying them, she printed out the patterns for these ancient costumes.
Leng Ruo Li planned to discuss these ten ancient costume design sketches with Zhou Bo Yu the next day and then have the finished products made.
...
Outside the spatial realm, a flash of lightning split the pitch-black night sky in two, followed by a thunderclap that shook the entire night sky. Then, a torrential rain began to fall, quickly washing over the entire capital...
The downpour lasted all night.
The next morning, the rain outside had stopped, and the sun in the east dutifully illuminated the entire land.
After the rain stopped, Jun Mo Han went to the palace for the morning court, while Leng Ruo Li went to the small vegetable garden she had planted in Han Che Yuan.
After last night’s heavy rain, the sweet potato seedlings in the field had drunk their fill and were growing rapidly. Leng Ruo Li felt that it was time to harvest another batch.
Therefore, she asked Ling’er to fetch the manor’s steward and arrange for some people to cut down the sweet potato seedlings in the garden and transport them to the manor for planting.
After Leng Ruo Li finished instructing the steward, she ate a simple breakfast and left the Leng Prince’s manor with Xing’er and Ling’er.
As she had previously taught them how to cut and plant sweet potato seedlings, she did not need to do it herself this time.
Today, she was going to visit Yue Mei Ren Jewelry Store to find Zhou Bo Yu.
Soon, Leng Ruo Li and her two maids, traveling by carriage, passed through the bustling streets of the capital with the horses’ hooves clattering, finally stopping in front of Zhou Bo Yu’s Yue Mei Ren shop.
At this moment, Zhou Bo Yu, who was supervising on the second-floor balcony, lowered his gaze and saw a familiar carriage at the entrance of his shop, guessing who the owner was.
“Ruo Li, hurry upstairs and take a look!”
As soon as Leng Ruo Li alighted from the carriage, she heard Zhou Bo Yu calling out to her.
“Okay, Uncle Yu, I’ll be right up,” Leng Ruo Li replied with a smile.
Then, Leng Ruo Li, holding up her skirt with both hands, hurried upstairs.
When she reached the second floor and saw the decoration, Leng Ruo Li was instantly stunned.
“Wow, this second floor is decorated so beautifully!”
Even Xing’er and Ling’er, who followed Leng Ruo Li upstairs, were mesmerized.
“Your Highness, this place, this place is truly beautiful!” her two maids exclaimed.
The paintings of court ladies on the walls seemed as real as life, along with various landscape paintings and paintings of famous flowers... The walls of the second floor were painted so beautifully that Leng Ruo Li couldn't find words to describe them for a moment.
The carpet beneath their feet was also a top-quality knitted product. In the center of the floor was a small artificial rockery with flowing water, using ancient waterwheel technology to keep the water moving. In front of the rockery was a beautiful blue and white porcelain fish tank, containing a water lily and several fine koi.
At this moment, Zhou Bo Yu walked towards Leng Ruo Li.
“Ruo Li, Uncle Yu didn’t know what style of decoration you preferred. A few days ago, I visited Jin Xiu Ge and learned that you liked landscape paintings and paintings of famous flowers, so I casually invited some famous painters from the capital to paint the walls of the second floor of the shop. I didn’t expect the effect to be quite pleasing,” Zhou Bo Yu explained calmly.
“Uncle Yu, you’ve really gone to a lot of trouble,” Leng Ruo Li said, deeply moved.
This Zhou Bo Yu was truly good to her, treating her completely as his daughter and doting on her. She had never done anything for him, which made Leng Ruo Li feel a little guilty.
“Ah, these are just small matters. I saw you were busy every day, so I took the liberty of decorating it for you. As long as you don’t dislike it, that’s enough.”
“Uncle Yu, the way you’ve decorated it is excellent. The entire second-floor space is divided into two parts, with a main aisle in the middle. The sides are separated by screens into small private rooms. Furthermore, you’ve also provided two changing rooms, which is very thoughtful.”
Leng Ruo Li nodded with satisfaction.
“Haha, as long as you like it.” Seeing that Leng Ruo Li was very pleased with the decoration he had arranged for her, Zhou Bo Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
