Therefore, Shang Wuying hoped that Shen Haoxuan could continue to protect Shang Zhiqing well.
He told them in a very obscure tone that the Shang family was going to have a change of events.
When Xie Qingrong told the two that the hidden meaning in Shang Wuying's words were that the both of them were not in a good state, Shang Zhiqing's face instantly turned deathly pale.
Shen Haoxuan looked at Shang Zhiqing's pale face and his eyes sunk for a moment.
Even now, Shang Zhiqing was still hiding something from him.
The four of them rested in the tavern for a while. Shang Zhiqing bought a few herbal medicines from the medicine store to remove the poison mist in the valley.
While developing the antidote, she recalled what Shen Haoxuan said to her today, and a sweet smile hung on the corner of her mouth.
Just as he mixed the veil with the antidote, Xie Qingrong pushed open the door and entered. Shang Zhiqing raised his head slightly, seeing that it was Xie Qingrong, he immediately retracted his gaze, lowered his head, and once again applied the antidote onto the veil.
"What is this?" Xie Qingrong asked softly as she stretched out her hand to play with the veil that was already covered with the antidote.
"This is a veil, the poisonous fog in the valley can numb the nerves, I have already soaked these veils with the antidote, so I can rest easy while covering my face." Shang Zhiqing's hands did not stop moving as she answered Xie Qingrong's questions.
"Yes." Xie Qingrong indifferently replied, "Tell me, what else are you hiding?"
During the day, the meaning revealed by Shang Wuying was not limited to just these few levels, she was almost fooled. If she did not see Shang Zhiqing's pale face, she probably would not have thought of the true hint behind Shang Wuying's back.
As she listened to Xie Qingrong's question, Shang Zhiqing's hand that was fiddling with her veil slightly trembled. Her hand was inadvertently tainted with an antidote, and her long eyelashes drooped down, making it impossible to see the expression in her eyes.
"I've told my sister everything I can." Shang Zhiqing said softly, her long eyelashes trembling, covering the pain that flashed past her eyes.
Xie Qingrong looked at Shang Zhiqing's face, the beautiful face looked very similar to hers, but there were traces of sorrow on the beautiful face.
In her heart, she had already determined that Shang Zhiqing definitely had some secret that he would not tell her. This secret might be related to her, her, or both of them.
However, Shang Wuying's every word and sentence continued to resonate in her mind. What exactly was Shang Zhiqing's responsibility? What shouldn't I do?
Xie Qingrong almost thought about it until her brain was cracked, and did not even manage to understand what was going on, which was why she had come to ask Shang Zhiqing.
What secret did the Shang family possess?
"Love. You and I are sisters from the same mother. I don't want you to hide anything from me, and I don't want you to face any difficulties while I can't help you." Xie Qingrong held Shang Zhiqing's shoulders with both hands, and said seriously and sincerely.
Shang Zhiqing seemed to be able to see a piece of starlight flashing through Xie Qingrong's eyes. It was as beautiful as the milky way, and she also seemed to be able to see her own somewhat timid expression.
Tightly pursing his lips, his hands unconsciously tightened, as he gently struggled out of Xie Qingrong's grasp. He looked at Xie Qingrong with the same serious expression and said softly, "Elder sister, did you know? "If possible, I hope you will never return to the Shang family."
She was burdened with those ridiculous and pathetic responsibilities that she would never be able to shake off.
When she was young, she had snuck out of the merchant's school, but had lost her way in the mountains, encountering poisonous snakes and ferocious beasts, she had almost fallen into their stomachs. If not for Shang Wuying, she would have long ago left the human world.
But it was also that time, that she truly understood how terrifying the methods and abilities of the Shang family members were. Shang Wuying, who was only ten years old, possessed the unyielding ability to be a perfect match for the ferocious beasts.
She would never forget the scene at that time.
The night was dark and the moonlight was beautiful.
His eyes were bloodthirsty and filled with killing intent, like a ghost that had crawled out of hell. It was as if he would pounce over in the next moment and absorb his own blood and flesh.
The brightness was outrageous, but it was also terrifyingly outrageous.
Even if Shang Wuying saved her, she had created an indelible impression in her heart.
His own blood could awaken the metazoan flower and bring it back to life.
Being chosen as a Holy Maiden carried with it the hopes and dreams of countless merchants and carried with it countless responsibilities and burdens. Study endlessly every day, learn everything, learn everything at your best.
She was too tired.
However, when she heard from her mother that she still had an elder sister, she was filled with longing. She really wanted to see her elder sister.
After secretly collecting everything about her elder sister, she finally went to see her elder sister after she went through the experiential learning at the age of fifteen.
He had sworn that he would never let his sister go back to the Shang family, yet he had broken the oath himself.
"Then can you tell me why you don't want me to go back to the Shang family?" Xie Qingrong looked at Shang Zhiqing, who was gradually losing her focus in front of him, and the sadness on her face became more and more obvious.
He could not help but interrupt Shang Zhiqing's daydreaming.
"I can't say." Shang Zhiqing shook her head, refusing to answer Xie Qingrong's question.
Other than her father and mother, elder sister was the most important person in the world. However, all the Shang clan's disgrace and honor had been engraved in Shang Zhiqing's blood and bones since she was young, making her unable to abandon them.
Only then did he endure the sadness and helplessness in his heart, and brought Xie Qingrong back to the Shang clan, even though the Shang clan was already in pieces.
However, the hundred-legged bug didn't die yet. Someone must break the rule that the merchant house had long since decayed, and reorganize the merchant house so that the merchant house could be revitalized.
Therefore, sinners only needed her alone.
Xie Qingrong held Shang Zhiqing in her arms, and gently patted Shang Zhiqing's back to comfort her.
It was only until Shang Zhiqing gradually calmed down in Xie Qingrong's embrace.
After organizing everything, Shang Zhiqing took a deep breath. Looking at Xie Qingrong's figure that was about to turn around and leave, she stretched out her hand to gently grab Xie Qingrong's sleeve.
"Sister, can you sleep with me tonight?" Shang Zhiqing pleaded softly.
Xie Qingrong slowly turned around and nodded.
The two laid side by side on the bed. Shang Zhiqing tucked her blanket under her arm and stared fixedly at the blue bed curtain above him. Her heart was beating chaotically and she was extremely nervous.
She had never thought of sleeping in the same bed with her sister one day.
Her sister was beautiful, intelligent, powerful, and skilled …
Xie Qingrong's shoulder was tightly pressed to Shang Zhiqing's shoulder, so naturally, she could feel Shang Zhiqing's somewhat nervous mood. With a light laugh, Xie Qingrong took the initiative to close her eyes and softly speak.
"Yes." Shang Zhiqing said softly, and immediately after, she closed her eyes.
