Chapter 165: Complete Confession
Qin Xiangnuan would not choose to tell Jiang Lin the real reason, and she did not want to tell lies either. When she was about to change the subject, she saw Qin Guang behind Jiang Lin.
"Jiang Lin, my father is here."
"Prince." Qin Xiangnuan's words had not yet fallen in her ears when Qin Guang's voice continued.
"General Qin, do you have something to discuss so late at night?" Jiang Lin put his hands behind his back, his attitude completely different from when he was facing Qin Xiangnuan.
"No." Qin Guang bowed. "I came to look for Nuannuan. I don't know why you are looking for Nuannuan, it's late at night."
These words sounded like an attempt to drive him away, so Jiang Lin's aura weakened a bit. "Nothing, just a chance encounter. Since the general has a family to discuss business with, I'll leave now."
After Jiang Lin left, Qin Xiangnuan felt like she was waiting for a verdict. She remained silent, waiting for Qin Guang to speak.
But after a moment of silence, Qin Guang said, "I heard from your mother that the prince is interested in you. What do you think?"
Qin Xiangnuan's heart warmed. "There's nothing going on between us. He just wants to get closer to Dad."
"I'm glad you understand." Qin Guang has been with Qin Xiangnuan for no longer than anyone else in the Qin family, but his vision is sharper than anyone else's. He has also seen the changes people make after suffering a blow, but no one can compare with the change in Qin Xiangnuan.
"Nuannuan, do you believe in ghosts and gods?"
Qin Guang did not choose to ask in an aggressive way, and Qin Xiangnuan was very grateful. She was willing to tell him everything, and she believed in Qin Guang's ability to bear it.
"General Qin!"
Even though Qin Guang had anticipated this, his body still trembled when he heard this unfamiliar name in person.
"I'm sorry." Qin Xiangnuan supported him in time and apologized with her head down.
Qin Guang turned his head and found that he could no longer see the entire top of the person next to him. The child who was the same height as him had grown up without him knowing when.
"You don't have to apologize. I listened to you... Mom, and what happened along the way. If it weren't for you, I don't know whether my whole family would be able to meet each other." Qin Guang was willing to believe that the person in front of him was not a wicked person, and he must have had his own difficulties.
Looking around, everywhere was cold in winter and there was no place suitable for a long conversation. Qin Guang wanted Qin Xiangnuan to help him back to the room.
Qin Xiangnuan refused, "I want to make it clear to you first, some things are not suitable for too many people to know."
Qin Guang agreed without much hesitation. Since she had decided to show her cards, she would not hide the matter of Qin Xiangnuan's space. She helped him sit on the bench under the tree and asked with a smile, "Do you want to see the strange thing Qin Feng said?"
"Did you really conjure up those?" Qin Guang had naturally heard about the statues in Phoenix Mountain. He was surprised and couldn't figure out why.
Qin Xiangnuan looked around vigilantly, and when she moved aside, there was a blind spot here. She blatantly took out two military coats from the space, and also took some heating pads, hot water bottles and the like.
Qin Guang's expression seemed to collapse. The warmth from his hand opened his tightly closed lips. "Why is this happening?"
"I didn't make these out of thin air. I took them from another place." Qin Xiangnuan lowered her head and taught him how to use these tools. Without looking at each other, she slowly told him her story.
The story is not long, but it is too novel. It takes time for an ancient person to accept it. After Qin Xiangnuan finished speaking, she silently waited for the other party's reaction.
Qin Guang was silent for a long time. He boasted that he had seen countless strange people and things, but nothing as bizarre as this. "Why would one person's soul attach itself to another person for no reason?"
Qin Xiangnuan's heart sank a little, but Qin Guang's next words made her respond.
"Can I call you Nuannuan?"
"Of course." Qin Xiangnuan agreed before Qin Guang even closed his mouth.
"Nuannuan, I believe you." Qin Guang promised solemnly, "I won't tell anyone about your life story, and your mother won't know either."
Qin Xiangnuan knew she had made the right choice and told Qin Guang about it. There was no need to keep it a secret from Liu. "You can talk, I..."
Qin Guang interrupted her, "No, no one can mention this matter again."
Qin Xiangnuan understood the worry in the other person's eyes. Qin Guang didn't distrust Liu, but he was worried about her safety after she knew about this strange thing.
"Okay." Qin Xiangnuan agreed, and Qin Guang's expression relaxed a little.
"Nuannuan, you know I have been fighting outside for many years, and I have not had as much time to spend with my daughter as her mother. Even so, when you heard that my daughter's life..." Qin Guang choked and pressed his hands to the corners of his eyes to block the moisture.
"As long as you don't mind, I will continue to be your daughter." Qin Xiangnuan looked directly at Qin Guang. This was the result of her many thoughts. She felt a warmth she had never had before in the Qin family. Except for one or two people who were not very nice, everyone treated her sincerely.
Qin Xiangnuan has killed countless people, but she also knows how to repay kindness. She has no regrets about spending the rest of her life serving the Qin family for the original Qin Xiangnuan.
Qin Guang took a breath and put all his emotions back into his heart, "Nuannuan, thank you for protecting the Qin family."
"You're very kind, General. It's my duty to do so."
Qin Guang pulled his lips a little stiffly, "How can you not have a father when you have a mother?"
"...Dad." Qin Xiangnuan's voice was steady, but her hands betrayed a bit of unrest.
"Good, Daddy's good daughter." Qin Guang looked into Qin Xiangnuan's eyes. The other party was frank and had a hint of yearning, which made him, as a father, not feel any resentment towards her.
His daughter died, and although it had nothing to do with Qin Xiangnuan, she took over her body. Qin Guang had just felt resentful, but after hearing everything, he no longer felt resentful. People should understand the truth, and the culprits have always been the people in the imperial city.
If you look into it, he himself is one of the culprits.
Qin Guang's thoughts were broader than Qin Xiangnuan's, so it was a more convincing reason to discuss with Qin Xiangnuan at this time.
"Qin Feng... Cousin Feng believed what I said and has always believed that my appearance is your fault. He is the easiest person to fool." Qin Xiangnuan covered her mouth after she finished speaking. How could she say "fool"!
"Haha." Qin Guang laughed, "You are right. Feng'er is straightforward and easily deceived."
Qin Xiangnuan remained silent. Qin Guang had thought of a countermeasure for her. "Your words are not very convincing. No one will doubt what I said."
"I'm sorry for involving you in the lie." Qin Xiangnuan understood how much energy it took to cover up a lie, especially when the person being lied to was the one closest to her.
Over time, it becomes a torture.
Qin Guang shook his head nonchalantly. "Sometimes lies are told for a better life. Telling everything will only bring more disasters."
Qin Xiangnuan remained silent. He thought of Jiang Lin, who was hiding something, and wondered how well Qin Guang knew him.
