There was a flash of anger in Ziyan’s eyes.

It was so quick that nobody noticed it. She became gentle again in an instant.

“Don’t worry, I will protect myself for your sake.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Qing Yuan sighed. “Yan’er, there’s another thing that I wanted to ask you. Is there a girl by the name of ‘Qing’ in the secular world? She’s about sixteen years of age.”

Qing!

That was an agonizing word for Ziyan.

The person who had destroyed Long Ao Kingdom and took her father and brother captive was the princess of Liu Yun Kingdom, Feng Ruqing!

She despised her!

But as despicable as she was to her, Ziyan never showed it on her face. Instead, she pretended to be dumbfounded. “Qing? There are so many people in the world with such a name, I’m not familiar with any one of them. But I can be on the look out for that for you, if there is a girl by this name, I will definitely let you know.”

After hearing this, Qing Yuan sighed in relief. He could only let Ziyan look out for him before he mobilized Fengyun Manor.

“But...” Ziyan’s eyes flickered. “Why are you looking for this girl? Are you trying to get a concubine?”

Qing Yuan’s face became pale in an instant. Luckily only the Ziyan and he were in the room. Otherwise, if word got out, he would be killed when the lady’s daughter comes back in the future!

“Ziyan, how could you say such a thing. How can I get a concubine? I’m just... I’m just helping an old friend to look for her. She had no information but the name ‘Qing’ to go by.”

“Hmph.” Ziyan softly snorted. “Well I think you wouldn’t have dared as well. Now that you have me, don’t even think about other women!”

Qing Yuan tried to please her as he held Ziyan’s waist. Smilingly, he said, “Rest assured, Yan’er. I, Qing Yuan, will only have one wife in my life. I will never find a concubine.”

There were not many girls who were so true to their feelings in this world like Ziyan, and he admired her for that.

Ziyan bit her lip. “Since there’s not much for me to do here, I will take my leave. I still have to find a way to save my father and brother.”

Qing Yuan’s eyes quivered for a moment. He wanted to say something, but after looking at how strong-willed Ziyan was, he held back his words.

Forget it, it would obviously be impossible to stop Ziyan from saving her family. At most, he would just give up his life for her.

After all, he could not let Ziyan die while he looked on.

“Right,” Qing Yuan noticed the female servant dressed in white beside Ziyan. He was a little suspicious. “I’ve never seen this female servant before, she...”

Ziyan turned around. Her cold gaze swept over the female servant. She said coldly, “Oh, this is the new servant I have taken in. So, of course, you haven’t met her. Her throat was poisoned and now she’s a mute. I took pity on her and kept her by my side.”

“I see.” Qing Yuan was a little taken back.

Somehow, he felt... strange as he saw something in the female servant’s eyes.

The female servant’s eyes were filled with sorrow, the kind of sorrow that could not be erased or wipe away. It made him look a few more times.

“Let’s go, Xiao Yun,” said Ziyan coldly as she raised her eyebrows and gave the servant dressed in white a look.

The female servant shuddered for a moment. She finally stopped looking at Qing Yuan and followed Ziyan without looking back as they went toward the gate.

In a valley in Fengyun Manor.

Ziyan walked out from the manor’s gate and stepped onto the peak of the valley.

The mist was rising. It was beautiful; like a paradise.

“B*tch, I let you follow me here to make you understand how much Qing Yuan loved me.” Ziyan coldly chuckled as she turned to look at the female servant dressed in white. “You have seen clearly now that between me and him, there is no more room for another person. Moreover, he has even forgotten how you have saved him back then!”
