Chapter 29: Silk Flower
Qin Yi felt uncomfortable eating this so-called banquet at first.
Because Mang Zhan on the opposite side always stared fiercely at him as if he wanted to eat him alive. Anyone who was stared at like wouldn’t be able to eat well. Even worse, Dong Huazi’s casual glances from time to time gave him goosebumps even more.
Liu Su sneered, “Stupid.”
Qin Yi couldn’t answer, so he quietly flicked the handle of the stick with his fingers to express his protest.
Liu Su said, “You are only capable of flicking me. Go flick the savage if you dare.”
Qin Yi rolled his eye: I even want to drag Dong Huazi out and flick him to death, but you also have to look at the occasion.
Liu Su seemed to hear his inner voice and continued to sneer, “The socialization of ordinary people is really pretentious, boring, hypocritical and ridiculous. If he stares at you, you won’t stare back at him? He didn’t provoke you, but can’t you provoke him first? If you want to follow the rules, you can also consider how to use the rules. The world of mortals is nothing but a game. You aren’t like ordinary people who are burdened with family. You clearly have no worries, but you don’t want to have an unfettered mind. What are you living for?”
Qin Yi’s heart was touched. He thought that he had dealt with Dong Huazi very well before, but after Liu Su said so, he felt that what he did before was boring.
This is the difference in ideology...
If people really live like what Liu Su says, treat the world of mortals as a game... they would either go to prison or become immortal. DiiScôver new stories on no/v/e()/lbin(.)com
But the incitement is really strong... Qin Yi admitted that something was ignited inside him. Who didn’t yearn for that kind of attitude towards life, unrestrained and clear thinking?
At this moment, Li Qingjun moved his head and whispered, “I feel like something is wrong...”
“Huh?” Qin Yi didn’t respond immediately, “Anything wrong?”
“It seems...” Li Qingjun slowly blushed, “It seems that they regard you as my, my that one.”
My silly girl, you only realize it now? That savage love rival almost killed me ten thousand times in his mind! Qin Yi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, but he also knew that the relationship between him and Li Qingjun hadn’t reached this level. It was normal for Li Qingjun to have a headache because of this. To avoid breaking the friendship with her, he replied in a low voice, “Just to deal with Mang Zhan for now. I will try to explain to your father afterward.”
Li Qingjun moved away a little. Her eyes still looked sullen, “Does it embarrass you to be misunderstood by them?”
Huh? Did I say the wrong words again? Qin Yi hastily remedied, “To tell the truth, I’m very happy in my heart... Am I not afraid of hurting your reputation?”
“Happy in your heart?” Li Qingjun moved away a little more. She looked at him like looking a hooligan, “What do you want to do?”
Qin Yi was really about to vomit blood. Aren’t you a very reasonable person before? Are you having a period?
Li Qingjun quickly withdrew the hand that was holding Qin Yi’s hand, lowered his head, and rubbed her toe against the floor.
Qin Yi rubbed his hands awkwardly and said, “That was just to annoy Zhang Zhan on purpose.”
Li Qinglin didn’t come to question about this matter at all. He said with a serious expression, “I’m here to let you go back to the mansion with me. If you are traveling alone or if you are going to have a tryst with my sister, I’m afraid that you won’t be able to see the sun tomorrow.”
Qin Yi’s heart trembled, and he said solemnly, “Thank you. I was indeed over in my head.”
Li Qinglin called a group of guards over, “Escort the princess back to the mansion. If there is any change, communicate with the arrow.”
Li Qingjun looked at Qin Yi, and she suddenly felt a little bit reluctant to leave. We see each other every day, why do I have such emotions?
She was not a clingy person either, so she didn’t express her emotions anymore. She just took a deep breath and said in a low voice, “See you tomorrow.” Then, she left.
Watching the guards escort Li Qingjun away, Li Qinglin led a team and returned with Qin Yi.
“Father rests early now. If it’s usual, you’re probably meeting the emperor right now.” After walking for a while, Li Qinglin slowly started the topic, “He will definitely summon you tomorrow morning, you have to make preparations.”
“I know.” Qin Yi asked, “Is there any special instruction?”
“Don’t directly advise him to stop the elixir, it will only make him unhappy. You can handle the rest yourself. After all, I’m a layman in Taoism and alchemy.” Li Qinglin suddenly laughed, “You have some political mind when facing Dong Huazi today, so I don’t need to remind you more.”
“What political mind do I have...” Qin Yi was very helpless, “You suddenly let me deal with Dong Huazi. I had to be extremely cautious and think for a long time before daring to say anything. Do you know how much effort it took for me?”
Li Qinglin smiled, “Isn’t it also because of this sudden move that the relationship between you and Qingjun has been brought closer?”
“Ugh...” Qin Yi paused and sighed, “Actually, Brother Li, although I seem to be thanking you, I still want to say that Qingjun herself didn’t think about the consequences of bringing a man into the palace. If I’m not her lover, wouldn’t put her into a difficult situation?”
“As long as she doesn’t marry to the West Savage Kingdom, that’s the primary meaning. As for the others, I don’t have that much thought.”
“In other words, you are not thinking about Qingjun’s happiness, but only for West Savage Kingdom?”
“To be precise, I’m for the South Li Kingdom.” Li Qinglin said lightly, “For some things, Brother Qin should be as clear as a mirror, so you should not ask such childish questions like Ye Ling.”
Qin Yi sighed, “Because I know something, I want to confirm if you really love Qingjun or is it just a plastic brother-sister relationship. Now that I have confirmed it, I’m fine.”
Li Qinglin wondered, “What is plastic?”
“Hmm...” Qin Yi thought for a while and explained, “It’s just those fake flowers made of silk.”
“A flower made of silk?” Li Qinglin looked up at the sky, thought for a while, and suddenly smiled, “It’s also pretty good. Such a flower is also very beautiful, and it doesn’t wither easily.”
TL: Finally establish a love relationship, Li Qingjun is surprisingly honest with her feeling though...
