Chapter 21 Chapter 21 Last night, I didn’t ask anything. …
The breeze blows the leaves outside the window, and the fragrance of tea wafts through the house.
Jiang Daiyi sat at a small table pouring tea. The faint light of sunrise shone through the dark window onto her cheek, which was as soft as a small white flower, and reflected the sharp corners of the window frame.
On the small couch opposite her lay a handsome young man, his clothes loose and his body almost filling the entire couch.
Yun Qin opened his eyes, and a beam of morning light shone on the corner of one of his eyes, making his clear eyes charming.
Jiang Daiyi heard the movement on the couch and turned her head to call Yun Qin softly: "Brother, would you like some tea?"
Yun Qin looked indifferently at the girl who looked as if nothing had happened.
After a moment he stood up and got off the couch, and the robe scattered on the couch immediately stretched and hung down with his movement.
Jiang Daiyi handed the poured tea to Yunqin and said with a soft smile, "Brother has been unconscious all night."
Yun Qin felt the energy in his dantian was full. Unexpectedly, by some strange coincidence, he had taken the pill last night, which helped him recover some of his internal strength. His eyes changed slightly and he spoke in a calm voice.
"Did you ask everything you wanted to know last night?"
Jiang Daiyi placed the teacup next to Yunqin and smiled slightly: "Brother, what do you want me to know?"
Yun Qin Junqi observed the girl's expression with his shallow eyes, trying to catch some confusion in her eyes. "Sister, haven't you always been curious about my attitude towards you? Last night was a good opportunity."
Jiang Daiyi didn't care: "I'm not curious at all. My brother must have his own intentions when he does things."
Yun Qin looked at her quietly.
Jiang Daiyi always felt that Yunqin's gentleness had lost some of its former gentleness. Since when did the look in his eyes when he looked at her always carry a hint of oppression?
The girl smiled softly, but the smile did not reach her eyes. Her voice was clear and sweet: "Brother doesn't believe me, but I believe him. Last night, I didn't ask anything."
The air after the rain is pure, and the girl's eyes are like crystal dewdrops hanging on the tips of lotus flowers, without any impurities.
Jiang Daiyi took a sip of tea, shook the cup, and whispered about her past.
"I always thought I was an orphan, tortured by Tianque and exploited by Qianxiang. Every day and night in Tianque was extremely tormenting for me, until..."
The girl paused and looked at Yunqin who was facing her. Yunqin stared at her and listened to her continue to repeat.
"Until Tianque discovered my origins as a descendant of the Yun family, they sealed my martial arts, poisoned me, and made me use the Yun family's bloodline to return to the Yun family and inquire about the Yun family's news."
These are exactly the same as what the secret guard said last night.
But one thing is certain, according to the news brought by the secret guards, the main reason why she returned to the Yun family was because she was rescued by King Huai Geng.
Jiang Daiyi hid the darkness in her eyes. Some words, whether spoken too truly or too falsely, were not trustworthy enough.
Often, half truths and half lies are enough to confuse people.
Especially someone with a deep mind like Yunqin.
Jiang Daiyi stated her purpose: "I was the one who leaked the news in the mansion in the past, but I didn't hurt anyone. I only passed on the news to obtain the antidote for Tianque."
"Brother, I'll tell you everything. Can you forgive me?"
The girl's eyes were slightly red, and her autumn eyes were as clear as jade, revealing a deep sense of helplessness.
Yun Qin said softly, "I haven't blamed you, what are you forgiving?"
Jiang Daiyi said, "Brother just asked me what I wanted to know. I just want to know: if I keep lying and continue to work for Tianque and oppose the Yun family, what will brother do to me if he finds out?"
Yunqin didn't think the things she mentioned were particularly difficult to solve: "Your worries are really unnecessary."
After saying this, fearing that she might misunderstand, he added, "Sister, I won't hurt you."
Jiang Daiyi didn't understand the implied meaning and felt that Yunqin spoke too early.
If he found out one day that she was not Yun Yi, would he still say that?
"As you said, I can ask you anything last night while you were unconscious. However, I only want to hear it from you in person. Tell me your decision when you are completely lucid."
Yun Qin held the cup, the tea in the cup was covered with mist, reflecting his eyes that were indistinct from emotion, without any ripples.
"Sister, you don't have to compare yourself with other irrelevant people or things."
Yun Qin had a gentle demeanor, with mist rising from the teacup in front of him. His voice was pure and elegant, like the sound of an angel, enough to make people feel at ease and at ease.
"You left the Yun family and lived in Tianque since you were young. Seven years is enough to solidify a person's character. I understand that. Even if you did something outrageous, it was because I failed to protect you."
The implication is that he will cover the cost.
Jiang Daiyi was stunned. What these words meant was that he was not questioning her, but just wanted her to confess on her own initiative.
She is the blood of the Yun family. Even if the company of ink turns black, he will make her white again.
Yun Qin: "Then, don't have any contact with Tianque anymore. There's no need to worry about the poison in your body."
Jiang Daiyi was stunned when she heard this and said, "Brother, do you believe me now? It seems that even if I really did something outrageous, judging by your current attitude towards me, you won't do anything to me."
Yun Qin glanced at the somewhat complacent girl calmly: "I certainly won't, but if I find out that you're saying one thing and doing another in the future, you should know the consequences. After all, besides such a low-brow method as silencing someone, it's not difficult to make someone sober and obedient."
He wasn't joking.
Jiang Daiyi's slightly curved lips drooped. She was silent for a while, then suddenly asked curiously, "Brother, when I got lost, did you look for me?"
Yun Qin sat upright beside the small table. When he heard Jiang Daiyi ask this question, the smile on his jade-like face, which was as light as the white moon, suddenly became colder and colder. His tea-colored eyes seemed to be covered with an invisible mist. Although the warmth was still there, there was an unusual coldness in his eyes.
But after just a moment, he returned to normal and said, "Back then, I followed the trail left by the bandits all the way to the barbarian land in the north."
Jiang Daiyi's eyes changed slightly. The barbarian land in the north was no less dangerous than the Hanlin. Anyone who entered there would have a hard time.
Even without him saying it, I can guess about 70% of what he will say next.
Yun Qin stopped there, "If I say any more, I'm afraid it will scare you. But I hope you know from now on, no matter what happens, I will stand by you and protect you."
The bright sunlight shone through, and the haze of suspicion between the two people immediately dissipated.
Jiang Daiyi should have been happy, but she knew clearly that the premise of all this was that Yunqin treated her as a real sister.
If I take off my disguise, I'm afraid these words will become sharp knives, piercing my heart.
The two of them had different thoughts, and the sky outside the window was getting gloomy again. The spring rain was falling heavily, and the bright spring lamp that had been burning on the table all night was flickering. They felt very melancholy for a moment, and were speechless.
After a moment, Jiang Daiyi leaned forward slightly to blow out the candle. Her slender arms rested on the small table, her sleeves swaying slightly in the wind. She slowly raised her eyes and hesitated for a moment before discussing with Yun Qin in a soft voice.
"I know that my brother's main purpose for this trip is not the treasure."
"Let me return to Tianque for the last time to help my brother complete the plan you want to accomplish."
"As long as I can severely damage Tianque and eliminate Qianxiang this time, I will never have anything to do with Tianque again. Is that okay?"
"elder brother?"
Endless hope rose in the girl's eyes. Every word she said was filled with murderous intent, but her eyes showed a yearning for peace.
"I hope you agree."
Yun Qin looked at Jiang Daiyi and said slowly: "But I don't need you to take risks. I don't want to look for you for another seven years."
Jiang Daiyi was shocked.
Yun Qin's eyes were as pale as the clouds in the sky, and he reminded Jiang Daiyi.
"Since you want to live a peaceful life, you should stay by my side. I will help you eliminate any dangerous places or people."
Jiang Daiyi looked at the young man and said calmly enough to put people at ease, even though there was a threat hidden in the coaxing that could not be disobeyed.
"So, sister, from now on, you'd better not tell me half-truths."
