C39 Qin Leap (2/2)

He was indifferent to everyone, indifferent to everything, he did not form a party, he did not take bribes, he did not flatter, he acted as if he was just playing around, he could disobey the emperor.

Such a proud and aloof person, such an empty heart, was stuffed full of a mischievous and adorable little girl.

Wei He lowered his head and thought for a moment. Then, he raised his eyes and asked, ”If you can't beg a person, what should I do?”

Qin Yue's expression changed slightly as he pulled the center of his brows, begging for help but not letting it wander in his heart.

”Everything is fine as long as you follow the will of the heavens. What should be you is yours, not yours. What's the use of forcing it?” He tried to comfort her, but he couldn't bring himself to.

The reason why human beings are human beings is because their thoughts are ahead of their time and their thoughts are more complex than other living beings.

Qi He nodded, his master was right. Even if he did everything possible to keep him by his side, his heart wasn't here, so what? All that was left was a shell.

Qin Fei noticed that there was movement behind the screen and was about to grab the original screen. However, after some thought, he realized that such an action would definitely embarrass Qi He.

”Master has been back for a long time and has yet to go to the Phoenix Return Hall to meet the Queen. Now that I have the time, I will leave first.”

Qi He stood up and sent Qin Fei flying to the entrance of the hall. He smiled and said, ”Master, take care.”

As she watched Qin Fei's figure slowly disappear, her eyes gradually became filled with a cold resolution as she turned back into a proud phoenix.

He turned back to the screen and faced the undressed man as he condescendingly said, ”Scram.”

That man was like an eighty year old man. He trembled as he stood up. His face was ancient and he didn't say a word.

After he had taken a few steps, a clear and cold voice came from behind his ears, ”If you know what's good for you …”

”Princess, please be at ease. This servant will not reveal today's matter.” He didn't even turn his head back as the distance between the two of them became further and further apart.

Back in the palace, Shangguan Wan stared at the red robed man below like a tiger watching its prey, her heart palpitating slightly.

The first time she saw him, she knew he was no mortal.

His spell should not be weaker than his own, another formidable opponent had appeared.

Qin Fei also knew Shangguan Wan's true identity, but he still bowed respectfully. ”This humble servant greets the Empress.”

Shangguan Wan tried her best to conceal the fear in her heart. She had always been afraid that he would come looking for her, and now that she had come, her whole heart was in trouble.

Doomsday. Was it really her doomsday? Although this Qin Fei was not a smiling person, anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell that he was a ruthless character.

A person that Nangong Yu had taken a fancy to and acknowledged as an Imperial Scholar was definitely not simple.

”It's been hard for the Imperial Advisor to share His Majesty's worries, so let's skip these vulgar rituals.” She calmly instructed Rui Xiang and the others, ”You may all leave for now.”

”Yes.” The palace maids and eunuchs agreed before withdrawing. Although they didn't know the reason for the empress and the Imperial Advisor being alone together, they still didn't dare disobey.

However, the Imperial Advisor was known to be a man who didn't like women. He was a very pure and honest man, and the girls he spent the most time with were his disciples, Qi and the princess. If the emperor knew about this, he wouldn't be so jealous.
