C39 Qin Leap (1/2)

Qin Fei took a sip of tea, but his expression remained calm.

Where did that man go? Could he be hiding?

”I heard that Qi He is in trouble.”

His words were tactful. After all, as a man, asking someone directly wasn't proper.

”Not really.” Wei He smiled. Luo Chen would never be a problem for him.

In this world, how could there be any trouble that could not be abandoned?

The corner of Qin Fei's mouth curled slightly as he pointed with two fingers of his right hand. The paper fan in his hand opened to reveal a Phoenix Bathed in Fire and Rebirth Diagram.

She remembered that in the past ten years, the fan had changed a lot, but the fan had always been this one. It had never changed.

There must be something special about it, she asked, but he didn't answer.

Maybe everyone had a past they didn't want others to know about.

”Qi He has grown up. My master shouldn't have cared about the thoughts of a girl's family, but she's been my master for a day, and she's my father for life.” Qin Fei was around thirty years old, so he should be her uncle in age.

”Thank you for your concern, master, but you have a sense of propriety.” Even though she said so, her actions today showed that she had lost her mind.

Qin Fei didn't say anything. He looked around at the furnishings in the hall. To be more precise, he was looking for someone.

He could already smell a very special smell. That smell was unfamiliar yet familiar. It was unfamiliar because they had not met for more than ten years, and it was familiar because they had been together for the past few days.

There must be someone inside.

Qi He knew that his master was shrewd and that it was difficult to hide some things from him, so he decided to ignore it. If that person was unlucky, he would let his master find out.

She wanted to see what kind of explanation he would give for what had just happened.

After a long while, Qin Fei asked, ”Is the rumor true?”

”Seriously.” Qi He replied without hesitation. There was a high chance that rumors would not be believed, but now they were true. The noble and noble Princess had taken a fancy to the eunuch by the empress's side.

Qin Fei's hand that was holding the paper fan tightened. An inexplicable sadness was born in the depths of his dark eyes.

It was true, she really did have a lover. In the ten years she had been together with him, she actually fell in love with a eunuch in the short span of a few days he had left her.

”Yes.”

He couldn't even speak, he could only give a simple grunt of assent.

”Master, I have a question to ask you.” She was trapped by love and hoped to be taught a lesson by her master.

Qin Fei smiled, ”Just ask.”
