Chapter 496: Leaving One After Another

Jiang Lin did not answer Qin Xiangnuan's question immediately because he didn't know why he asked it.

Perhaps it was because of the trouble caused by the foreign people, and finally because King Li could not let go of the foreign people and was willing to cooperate with them and betray his relatives.

Or perhaps it was because he could clearly live a peaceful life here, but he still kept asking when Qin Xiangnuan could go home.

Jiang Lin couldn't explain why, so Qin Xiangnuan continued in his silence, "Jiang Lin, I'm not someone who gets melancholy about the passing of time. My sense of belonging has never been in places, but in people."

Jiang Lin paused for a moment after hearing this, and then he said, "I understand."

Jiang Lin now had a goal in his mind. He wanted to become Qin Xiangnuan's home and let Qin Xiangnuan settle down by his side.

This gave Jiang Lin a reason for what he was about to do.

"Nuannuan, let's find a place to talk." Jiang Lin said with a serious expression.

Qin Xiangnuan glanced at him and silently led him to a quiet place where no one would disturb him.

"You want to go back to Beijing?"

After the two of them stood still, before Jiang Lin could say anything, Qin Xiangnuan directly pointed out his thoughts.

Jiang Lin laughed. He knew that he couldn't hide it from Qin Xiangnuan, but Jiang Lin didn't think of hiding it. Ever since they heard that Gu Mingqi was in trouble, both of them had this idea.

It's just that due to the current affairs, neither of them mentioned it.

"Nuannuan, will you go with me?"

Qin Xiangnuan looked at Jiang Lin in surprise, then relaxed her brows. "Okay, when do we leave?"

"Three days later," Jiang Lin said, "It's just the two of us on this trip. I'll talk to General Qin."

Qin Xiangnuan agreed, and then Jiang Lin left.

Jiang Lin was in a depressed mood when he came, but he was completely different when he left.

In fact, Jiang Lin originally planned to let Qin Xiangnuan stay at the border, but after hearing what Qin Xiangnuan said, Jiang Lin temporarily changed his mind.

Qin Xiangnuan is not the rose in the garden at home. She does not need anyone to wait for her. She can fight for a place for herself, and Jiang Lin is willing to help her.

Therefore, Jiang Lin will regard Qin Xiangnuan as a strong person, and his journey also requires a strong person.

Qin Guang just frowned at what Jiang Lin said, and then nodded.

"Prince Jiang, you can go ahead. Don't worry about us. I will wait for you to come back." Qin Guang said solemnly, trying not to let Jiang Lin have any burden.

Qin Guang knew what Jiang Lin would face when he returned to Beijing this time. If they made things worse, the lives of the entire Qin family might be lost.

But even so, Qin Guang was still willing to trust Jiang Lin.

"Thank you for your hard work, General Qin." General Jiang Lin gave the order to Qin Guang, and from then on all matters at the border would be decided by Qin Guang.

Qin Guang did not refuse and took the things from Jiang Lin's hand, "Don't worry, Prince Jiang, I will definitely protect this place."

Three days later, the official's cousin still did not show up, and the people he brought with him were also eliminated by Jiang Lin and his men by force.

The people returned home as they wished, and even though the place had become a ruin, they were still happy.

Some people were reluctant to leave the crops they had planted in the tent and wanted to wait until they had harvested them all before going back. Qin Xiangnuan naturally showed enough respect for their ideas, and everything was up to them to choose freely.

Everything seemed to be slowly returning to its place, and there were not many people left in the tents.

The Qin family is one of them because Qin Guang and the others have not returned yet, and this place is closer to Jiang Lin’s military camp.

After Li Yuran knew that they had not left, he came here specially to say goodbye, and then learned that Qin Xiangnuan was leaving.

After waiting at the door for some time, Li Yuran finally saw Qin Xiangnuan.

"Nuannuan, I heard that you are leaving again." Li Yuran asked Qin Xiangnuan as he surrounded her.

"Yes." Qin Xiangnuan said, "But this time it's not for a deal, so I can't bring you along."

Li Yuran curled her lips and said, "I don't want to go out again. I want to be with my family forever."

Li Yuran was frightened by the deserted scene she saw when she came back last time. She decided that she would never leave them again and that they would share everything together.

Qin Xiangnuan smiled and said, "That's fine. If you encounter any problems after I'm gone, you can ask my father and others for help."

Li Yuran nodded, then said to Qin Xiangnuan, "Nuannuan, I just can't bear to leave you. Will you encounter any danger on the way? When can you come back?"

Qin Xiangnuan shook her head. "It's all unknown, but don't worry too much about me. I will definitely come back here."

Li Yuran naturally believed it, but still felt reluctant, so he pulled Qin Xiangnuan aside and talked about the recent interesting things.

But in fact, there are not many. They stay here all day and never go out. How can they encounter interesting things?

Finally, the topic turned to the eldest brother of the Li family. "My parents have recently started arranging a marriage for my eldest brother, but I can see that he is not very willing."

"Really?" Qin Xiangnuan listened to Li Yuran's speech and responded to her at the right time.

Li Yuran nodded. "My eldest brother met that girl a few times, but he was indifferent to her. The girl went home and cried about it. My parents almost beat my eldest brother."

Qin Xiangnuan smiled and said, "You can first ask your brother what kind of girl he likes. If he's interested, he won't give her the cold shoulder."

"I asked," Li Yuran said, "but my eldest brother said no one caught his eye."

Li Yuran raised his eyebrows when he said this, "I never thought my elder brother had such high standards."

Qin Xiangnuan remained silent, which was not surprising. Some people really couldn't explain why until they met the person they loved.

Having said this, Li Yuran suddenly leaned over to Qin Xiangnuan's ear and spoke mysteriously.

"Nuannuan, I thought my brother liked you at first, which made me worried for a while." Li Yuran said.

Qin Xiangnuan raised his eyebrows. He had never felt this way about the eldest brother of the Li family, so he said, "No."

Li Yuran also nodded at this time, "I misunderstood. I now realize that my elder brother is a blockhead, just like Qin..."

That’s all I have to say.

Qin Xiangnuan glanced at Li Yuran and said, "You can let your brother go out more often. Maybe one day he will meet someone he likes."

"You're right." Li Yuran laughed. "One can't always stay in one place. One has to see it before knowing whether one likes it or not."

After that, they did not continue this topic. The pause when Li Yuran mentioned Qin Feng's name just now made Qin Xiangnuan realize that Li Yuran was not so easy to let go.

However, Li Yu Ran is working towards that direction, and she is also trying her best not to care.

Now things have changed between Qin Feng and Xue'er. Xue'er's physical condition here can only be described as average, and it is unknown what will happen between her and Qin Feng in the future.
