Everyone looked at Su Jinxia, their resentment and inner conflict gone.
Su Jin smiled knowingly, "Tomorrow is the Lunar New Year. I hope that everyone's last Lunar New Year together here will be a fulfilling and joyful one!"
"I also hope that Ah Jin's remaining life will be full of happiness and joy," Su Hu sincerely wished.
May Ah Jin find happiness and fulfillment!
"I hope Ah Jin will be happy forever!"
...
Following Su Hu's words, everyone cheered.
Today, Su Jinxia dispelled everyone's anxieties, and everyone seemed to have seen a bright and beautiful future.
After a long while, everyone gradually dispersed.
Su Jinxia accompanied her parents on their way home.
Even from a great distance, Su Jinxia spotted that tall, upright figure right at her doorstep.
"Hmph!" Father Su snorted, as if to say that the guy was such a clingy person!
Upon arriving at the courtyard gate, Shen Qianxue bowed to Su's parents.
Su's mother politely invited him to come inside and sit down, while Su's father snorted and went home on his own.
"It's cold, Auntie, you should go back quickly. I'll just say a few words to Ah Jin and then leave," Shen Qianxue said softly.
Su's mother said no more and went into the courtyard.
Su Jin tilted her head and looked at Shen Qianxue with a faint smile on her face.
Seeing Su Jinxia's adorable appearance, Shen Qianxue couldn't resist wanting to hug her, but she didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of her father-in-law's door, so she could only gently take her hand.
"You did a really good job," Shen Qianxue praised sincerely.
Shen Qianxue heard everything Su Jinxia just said.
Su Jin smiled gently, "If it weren't for your statement yesterday, nothing I say today would have mattered."
Shen Qianxue reluctantly squeezed Su Jin's hand, "I have to go."
Su Jinxia's smile vanished instantly. "Can't we stay for the New Year? The nun is here too."
Shen Qianxue also wanted to stay, but...
"The village will definitely be very lively tomorrow, so I won't stay and upset everyone. I hope you can all have a happy last year of family reunion."
"Moreover, Phoenix Pavilion is also celebrating a festival this year, and as the Phoenix Master, I should go back to be with everyone."
Su Jin pouted and nodded obediently.
Shen Qianxue couldn't resist any longer and gently leaned down to kiss Su Jinxia's forehead, "Be a good girl and wait for me to come and marry you."
Su Jinxia pursed her lips shyly, then softly hummed in agreement.
Shen Qianxue walked out of the village, looking back every few steps, her eyes filled with reluctance.
Instead of leaving the mountain directly, he went to the nun's courtyard again.
He came to ask the nun if she would be willing to go back to Phoenix Pavilion with him for the New Year.
The nun hesitated for a moment, but still refused.
The nun was about to explain, but Shen Qianxue said, "There's no need to say more. I understand. Just take good care of yourself."
There are only a few reasons, which Shen Qianxue could think of.
First, Phoenix Pavilion was not a pleasant place for the nun.
Secondly, although the nun wanted to ease the tension between mother and son with Shen Qianxue, she was still devoted to Buddhism and had no intention of leaving the Buddhist order to return to the secular world. Therefore, it was not appropriate for her to go to Phoenix Pavilion and celebrate the New Year with everyone.
Shen Qianxue had already guessed the outcome before she arrived, but as her son, she still felt she had to ask.
The nun fell silent. Shen Qianxue gave a few more instructions and then left.
Snowflakes began to fall from the sky, and the nun quietly gazed out the window, looking towards the horizon.
After Shen Qianxue's wedding and the removal of the Gu poison, she can finally leave...
This departure marks the end of all worldly ties, leaving no more attachments...
Su Jin heard someone shout that it was snowing, so she opened the window a crack and saw that it was snowing quite heavily.
She couldn't help but worry about Shen Qianxue.
The roads are slippery in the snow, and it's difficult to travel at night. It's really worrying.
Lunar New Year's Eve is a lively, busy, and festive day.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, everyone went outside to set off firecrackers and fireworks, having a great time.
Suddenly, a disciple guarding the mountain rushed up to Su Jin and whispered, "Someone claiming to be Yue Ziqi wants to see you."
Su Jin looked slightly doubtful. Why would Ziqi come at this time?
"Quickly, invite them up the mountain," Su Jin ordered.
However, the disciple guarding the mountain said, "He is unwilling to come up and asks you to come down the mountain to see him."
Su Jinxia's doubts deepened, but she still followed her disciple down the mountain.
When Su Jin came down the mountain, she found that the person who came was indeed Yue Ziqi.
Yue Ziqi walked up anxiously, pulled Su Jin down and left.
"What are you doing?" Su Jin asked, puzzled.
The guards followed and blocked Yue Ziqi's path.
Yue Ziqi looked anxiously at the disciple blocking his way, then turned to Su Jinxia with a grave expression. "Young Master, I have something to say to you. Please come with me first, okay?"
Su Jinxia pursed her lips slightly, but still chose to believe Yue Ziqi. She dismissed the disciples of the Liuli Society and followed him away.
"What happened?" Su Jin asked, her expression no longer frivolous.
Yue Ziqi looked back and found that he could no longer see the disciples of the Liuli Society, so he knelt down with a "plop".
"What are you doing?" Su Jinxia quickly grabbed Yue Ziqi's arm.
Yue Ziqi gripped Su Jinxia's wrist tightly, choking back tears as he pleaded, "Young Master, please, please save the young master!"
You mean Han Qing?
Yue Ziqi nodded.
"What's wrong with him?"
"He's been taken control of by His Majesty!"
Su Jin was completely stunned. "Stand up. What exactly happened? Explain yourself."
Yue Ziqi then stood up and quickly said, "His Majesty has arrested the young master and ordered me to bring you back before the eighth day of the first lunar month, otherwise the young master's life will be in danger!"
"What is this brat up to?" Su Jin's brows furrowed instantly, her expression displeased.
"Young Master, His Majesty is no longer the brat you thought he was. He is capricious and will not listen to your advice at all. He often goes against you. Recently, he heard about your marriage and went crazy. He even threatened me with your life to make me take you back to the capital!"
Yue Ziqi spoke very quickly, his heart filled with anxiety, because the eighth day of the lunar month was fast approaching, and they could not afford to delay for even a moment longer.
Su Jin gritted her teeth and said angrily, "Nonsense! I want to see if he dares to touch a single hair on Han Qing's head!"
Upon hearing this, Yue Ziqi was so anxious that he almost cried. "He really dares to do that! He's gone berserk! Young Master, you can't joke with the young master's life!"
Su Jin was furious. "But I'm getting married soon, I can't break my promise!"
"Young Master! Are you really not going to care about the young master's life or death?!" Yue Ziqi knelt down again with a "plop," pleading through tears.
Su Jin pursed her lips, hesitated for a long time, and finally relented, "Alright, get up. I'll go back and explain things first, and then I'll go with you."
Upon hearing this, Yue Ziqi did not feel pleased, but remained silent.
Su Jin looked at him strangely, then noticed several men in black walking out from around them.
The men in black surrounded Su Jinxia, looking as if they were about to take her away immediately.
Su Jin's face darkened instantly.
