Chapter 429 Farewell Outside the City



When Xie Ling walked out of the study, the sun was setting again.

She planned to say goodbye to Nangong Yu and Nangong Cheng.

From now on we are far apart, see you again if fate permits.

Xie Ling had no intention of telling them about her treatment of Nangong Ruizheng.

She wanted to be treated, so she did.

There is no need for the Nangong family’s thanks.

On the other side, Gu Wei went to prepare things needed for the journey.

Dongling and Beijiang are thousands of miles apart.

When he arrived, he was dusty and full of enthusiasm.

When I go back, with Xie Ling by my side, I naturally can't live such a rough life.

A carriage must be prepared, delicious food must be available, and various details of life are also indispensable.

By the way, go and inspect Beijiang’s secret agents and intelligence network stationed in Dongling.

Xie Ling walked towards Nangong Yu's study.

Looking at the scenery along the way, even Xie Ling couldn't help being shocked.

Within one day, the Nangong family had returned to normal.

Even the bloodstains in the cracks of the stones were cleaned up so thoroughly that nothing unusual could be seen.

Along the way, servants were placing flowers.

On the corridors and beside the paths, the fresh and rich scents of jasmine, rose, magnolia... suppress the bloody smell in the air a lot, making people feel relaxed.

They are just a noble family, so they are very active, Xie Ling sighed silently.

When Xie Ling arrived in front of Nangong Yu's study, she felt something was wrong.

Outside the door, there were many unfamiliar guards with cold eyes, long swords hanging on their waists, and they looked very solemn.

Nangong Yu has guests?

"Thank God the doctor is here!"

A servant of Nangong Yu saw Xie Ling and ran in to report.

After a while, Nangong Yu came out to greet her in person.

Xie Ling's eyes widened slightly.

Nangong Yu...why did he become like this?

The man who was wrapped in bandages in the morning was now wearing a moon-white robe, a jade crown to tie his hair up, and he looked bright and sunny, without a trace of fatigue.

Xie Ling took a closer look and discovered that he was applying powder.

Anyway, Nangong Yu must have his reasons for doing this.

Xie Ling did not show any doubt and greeted him with a slight smile: "Young Master Nangong."

Nangong Yu nodded, "Thank you, Doctor. Are you ready to leave?"

Currently, Nangong Yu only knows that Xie Ling’s husband is a man of extraordinary talent, but he does not know where he comes from, nor does he know where they will go in the end.

Since the other party didn't say anything, he didn't ask, maintaining a certain sense of propriety.

Someone saved you, so all you need to do is remember this kindness.

Xie Ling nodded.

"Yes, I came to say goodbye to you."

Nangong Yu frowned slightly, with a hint of bitterness in his eyes, "Okay. Ah Cheng is out on business, so I'm afraid there's no chance today. Next time you come, you must have a good chat with him, okay?"

When he said "next time", Nangong Yu's tone couldn't help but carry anticipation and a plea that he himself didn't even realize.

Nangong Yu would never speak in this tone.

The people in the room raised their eyebrows in surprise and walked out.

Only then did Xie Ling see clearly who was the person who could make Nangong Yu dress up to welcome her.

This is a young man of about twenty-five or twenty-six, with an air of noble bearing and dignity beyond words.

The complicated red clothes with layers of layers did not look tacky at all on him.

With his overly handsome and romantic face, he looks elegant and noble.

He bowed to Xie Ling, his tone was polite and condescending. He looked elegant, but it made people feel very uncomfortable.

"This must be Dr. Xie from Mingyue Island. I have heard of him for a long time."

Xie Ling said calmly: "I have never seen this gentleman."

The man chuckled, and his delicate eyebrows curved beautifully, as bright as a smear of cinnabar on a gold and jade screen.

"What a coincidence, I haven't seen you either."

The confrontation ended with no one gaining the advantage.

Nangong Yu introduced: "This is the Ninth Prince, the younger brother of the current emperor, His Royal Highness Prince Ji, who is also my good friend for many years."

Xie Ling nodded slightly.

"Meet His Royal Highness Prince Ji."

After saying that, Xie Ling turned her eyes away, obviously not wanting to communicate with the man anymore.

She looked at Nangong Yu and said, "It's getting late. My companions are waiting for me. I have to go."

King Ji raised his eyebrows slightly.

There was an almost unnoticeable sound of "tsk".

He turned the jade ring on his index finger with his thumb.

Nangong Yu looked at Xie Ling's cold back, turned his head and said, "Your Highness, I have something to do today, so I'm sorry I can't accompany you."

"What do you want?" King Ji raised his eyebrows nonchalantly.

Xie Ling's figure was getting farther and farther away, and Nangong Yu's tone was already filled with anxiety.

"I am going to see my good friend off."

"Hahaha." King Ji chuckled, looking very romantic and unrestrained. He glanced at Xie Ling's cold back as she walked away, with a playful tone in his voice.

"Then I'll go with you."

Nangong Yu was anxious to see Xie Ling off, so he nodded randomly and quickly chased after her.

Xie Ling walked fast and also used light skills.

King Ji was accompanied by a large group of guards and servants, so he naturally walked slowly. Nangong Yu looked unhappy and walked in front angrily.

King Ji looked at Nangong Yu like this, put his arm around his shoulders, and looked at him with a gossipy look.

"Ah Yu, I've never seen you care about a woman so much. Could Dr. Xie be your confidante?"

Nangong Yu held his forehead with his hand, feeling helpless.

"I have someone I love, what are you talking about? Doctor Xie and I are just friends. Tell your servants to leave quickly, or I won't wait for you."

Outside the city.

Gu Wei prepared five or six carriages.

Xie Ling's carriage looked ordinary at first glance, but it was actually the most exquisite.

The carriage was covered with thick velvet carpets, and was equipped with tea sets, snacks, and even a notebook to relieve boredom.
