C205 Why Do We Hurt Each Other

When she was still at Miao Boundary before she was ten years old, Qu Ling had been lectured by Qu Ci many times, but this was the first time he had seen her like this.

The Xiao Er who felt like he should stay behind to replace Xiao Yi and Xiao San followed Qu Ling looked at Qu Ling, then looked at Qu Ci, his gaze deepening.

After roaring, Qu Ci calmed down a bit, and realised that he had misspoken, causing his expression to change slightly.

Without waiting for Qu Ci to think of a way to explain, Qu Ling came back to his senses and asked suspiciously: "Grandma, Xiao Jingyue's father stole mother, what does that mean?"

Xiao Er also felt puzzled, and looked at Qu Ci suspiciously.

Qu Ci's expression changed again and again, and after a long while, she finally squeezed out: "Nothing much!"

With that, he left without waiting for Qu Ling to continue pursuing the matter, as if he was escaping.

Qu Ling and Xiao Er looked at each other before Qu Ling asked with a blank expression on his face, "Could it be that Xiao Jingyue's father likes my mother?"

The Xiao Er choked. After hesitating for a moment, he said honestly: "When this subordinate came to Master's side, the Southern Guarding Prince's Concubine was already gone, but I heard from the elders in the palace that the prince really favored the Royal Concubine. When the Royal Concubine was still alive, she had not taken in a concubine, and the world of the Royal Concubine had not ordered her to be married.

Qu Ling asked again: "Could it be that my mother likes Xiao Jingyue's father?"

Without waiting for Xiao Er to speak, Qu Ling continued, "This is also impossible. "My mom likes my dad."

Xiao Er: "..."

Study room, underground chamber.

Godly Doctor Gu who had his Acupoints pierced through, sat on the bed and stared at Xiao Jingyue angrily: "Little bastard, hurry up and remove my Acupoint!"

Godly Doctor Gu's medical skills were very high, but his martial arts were average. Relying on himself to unlock his acupoints would take at least one to two hours.

Xiao Jingyue did not say anything, and glanced at Murong Qing and Chen Linye beside him.

Murong Qing put down his fan and sighed, "Alright."

With that, he led Chen Linye, Xiao Yi and Xiao San out of the secret room.

Not long after that, the door of the secret room was closed.

In that moment, only Xiao Jingyue and Godly Doctor Gu remained.

Xiao Jingyue's eyes were overcast. Looking at Godly Doctor Gu who was dodging his gaze left and right, he said in a heavy voice: "I only want to ask you one thing."

The Godly Doctor Gu immediately had a bitter face, "Can I not answer?"

Xiao Jingyue said calmly: "Alright."

So easy to talk to? The Godly Doctor Gu looked at his precious disciple suspiciously, and asked probingly: What will happen if I don't answer?

Xiao Jingyue did not answer and asked, "Just who planted this Gu in my body?"

This question was something that Xiao Jingyue asked Godly Doctor Gu many years ago. At that time, Godly Doctor Gu's answer was that he did not know.

Now, if he were to ask again, Xiao Jingyue wanted to know if he would still tell her that he didn't know.

Godly Doctor Gu's face changed, he suddenly lowered his head and did not speak anymore.

Xiao Jingyue clenched his hands behind his back. "Looks like I really do know."

Godly Doctor Gu still did not speak.

Xiao Jingyue also did what he said: one could not answer.

Xiao Jingyue walked forward a few steps, opened the acupoints of the Godly Doctor Gu, and turned to walk towards the stone stairs.

Behind her, the voice of the Godly Doctor Gu rang out, "Jue'er, not all truths need to be understood. Life is hard to understand, why must you try to find out the truth?"

Xiao Jingyue did not turn his head back, nor did he reply.

Murong Qing and Chen Linye were still waiting in the study room, but when they heard the sound of the stone door opening, they both turned their heads to look.

"Jing Yue." Murong Qing called out.

Xiao Jingyue nodded slightly and walked out of the study without looking at her.

Xiao Yi and Xiao San, who had originally followed Xiao Jingyue over, had already returned to Qu Ling's side.

The Xiao Er followed Xiao Jingyue for a while, and only after they had left the study, did he inform Xiao Jingyue of what he had just blurted out.

Xiao Jingyue frowned and did not say a word.

He suddenly thought about the word "Zhao" that Qu Ci had almost blurted out.

Thinking about it this way, perhaps the father that Qu Ci spoke of …

After Qu Ci lost his temper, he locked himself in his room. Other than the Aunt Tao who went to deliver his food, he did not see anyone else.

Qu Ling took the words of his grandma in the Western Courtyard to heart. He did not manage to persuade her well and after seeing that she could eat and drink, he did not try to persuade her again.

He then went to the western courtyard to take a look at Le Le Le before returning to the Clear Wind Courtyard.

Xiao Yi and Xiao San saw that Qu Ling was frowning, and the two of them looked at each other.

Xiao Yi probed, "Does Madam have any troubling matters, can you tell this subordinate?"

Qu Ling lazily glanced at him, "How dare you!"

Xiao Yi: "…"

Seeing Xiao Yi give in, Xiao San almost laughed out loud.

Xiao Yi glared at Xiao San, and cupped his hands in salute towards Qu Ling: "Please forgive me, Madam."

Qu Ling didn't have any intention to blame Xiao Yi in the first place, so he randomly waved his hand and asked: "Do you have a good relationship with your general's royal father and mother concubine?"

Xiao Yi didn't know why his mistress had asked him about his master's parents, but he truthfully replied, "The prince treats Princess Wangfei extremely well."

Qu Ling's eyes flashed. "Then, what does the wangfei do to the wangfei?"

Xiao Yi and Xiao San looked at each other, and Xiao Yi continued, "I heard from the old man in the palace that the wangfei respects the prince very much."

Qu Ling raised his eyebrows, and understood.

According to what Xiao Jingyue's three close Dark Guard s had said, Southern Guarding Prince really dotes on his own wangfei.

However, the Xiao Er didn't mention what kind of person Princess Hua-Yang was to him, and only used the word "respect" when asking Xiao Yi.

Thinking about it, Xiao Jingyue's parents shouldn't have a very good relationship with him, at least not with him.

Qu Ling thought for a while, then asked: "What kind of person is Southern Guarding Prince?"

Talking about the master behind his back was actually offending the master, but since the mistress asked, they couldn't just not answer.

This time, it was Xiao San's turn to answer: "A martial general, a wise godly warrior."

Qu Ling's face fell.

This answer was as though there was no answer.

After dinner that night, everyone sat around the round table.

Xiao Jingyue was there for dinner, but he did not come over.

Perhaps it was because they had thought of what had happened that day, but the atmosphere in the dining hall was rather strange.

Godly Doctor Gu grabbed his chopsticks and said, "Hurry and eat. It'll become cold if you don't eat more."

The rest of them ignored him, and only after seeing Xiao Jingyue pick up the chopsticks, did they start eating.

Xiao Jingyue placed the piece of meat into Qu Ling's bowl and then asked indifferently, "The Queen's birthday is the day after tomorrow. Is the wedding present ready?"

Previously, the two had discussed and discussed about giving gifts, but when Qu Ling asked her to come here to prepare, she did not care about it anymore.

"I've already prepared it." As Qu Ling said this, he placed a piece of meat with some fat from his bowl back into Xiao Jingyue's bowl.

Within the cafeteria, besides the sounds of dishes knocking against each other, the only sound that could be heard was the conversation of the couple.

Chen Linye muttered in a low voice: "It's amazing to have a wife."

Murong Qing, who was sitting beside him, laughed lightly: "It's indeed impressive, but you didn't."

Chen Linye choked, he glared at Murong Qing and said snappily: "You speak as if you have one."

We're all single men, we're all the same. Why do we have to hurt each other?

After dinner, Xiao Jingyue led Chen Linye to the study room.

Qu Ling did not rush back to the Pure Wind House and was taking a walk in the garden to eat.

Since Murong Qing had nothing better to do, he decided to walk around the garden with Qu Ling.

After an unknown period of time, Murong Qing said in a calm voice, "Tomorrow, I will leave Qi Jing to look for Shan'er."

Qu Ling was startled, he asked: "Do you want to stay for a few more days?"

"No, I'm worried about Shan. We have to find out where she is as soon as possible. "As for the banquet …" Murong Qing paused here, his expression suddenly became complicated, "Perhaps saying these words will offend you, but as your brother, I must say this. If possible, I hope you can stay away from Ah Wu. "

Qu Ling's body suddenly stiffened.

Murong Qing continued: "You should be able to tell that brat Ah Yan likes you. Now that you are married, don't give him any hope, stay away from him, be it for him or for you or Jing Yue … As for Shan'er, when we find her again, I will take strict care of her. I won't let her cause any more trouble for you. "

Qu Ling stood in the garden in a daze, not even knowing when he left.
