Jing Qingyun: m(o_ _)m
Visibly, his face cracked instantly, and shattered beyond recognition, so shattered that even 520 glue couldn't stick it back together.
After a long while, he slowly exhaled a ghostly breath, his gaze filled with resentment and helplessness as he stared directly at Sheng Lingwei, letting out a long sigh.
"Weiwei, everything I've said is the truth. I'm willing to give you my heart and soul, even if it costs me my life, I'm willing... you..."
"What?" Sheng Lingwei pursed her lips, her heart starting to beat erratically at that moment.
Jing Qingyun took a deep breath and tentatively pleaded, "Could you... could you try not to treat me like a brother, and try to accept my feelings?"
After saying that, Jing Qingyun realized she had been too blunt and quickly offered a rambling explanation.
"Weiwei, I understand your personality. You've never liked talking about love, and you don't even know what love is. I'm not asking you to accept my feelings; I just want to ask you to give me a chance."
Even if you ultimately can't accept my feelings, I, Jing Qingyun, will always be your best brother. I just hope you won't sever ties with me, okay?
Sheng Lingwei blushed slightly and blurted out, "Okay, I promise you."
To be honest, she was a little confused about her own feelings. When she heard Xiaoyunzi say that she liked her, she was stunned for a moment, but mostly she was happy.
Jing Qingyun's face lit up with surprise, "Weiwei, you...you agreed to my request?"
"Pfft..."
Sheng Lingwei couldn't help but laugh when she saw Jing Qingyun's dazed and silly expression.
"Yes, I've granted your request, Xiaoyunzi. I'm sorry, I can't give you a direct answer right now, but what I want to say is that I don't dislike that you like me."
In short, when it comes to feelings, you have to take it one step at a time. My feelings for you are more like brotherhood, but who knows, my feelings might change over time.
Don't worry, I won't take up too much of your time. Even if I can't accept your feelings in the end, I will make it clear to you directly.
Upon hearing this, Jing Qingyun couldn't contain her joy, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up. "Okay, Weiwei, as long as you don't reject me, that's fine."
The worst thing is when the air suddenly becomes quiet...
The two looked at each other in silence for a moment, feeling somewhat awkward and at a loss for what to do.
Sheng Lingwei blinked, and to ease the awkwardness, she casually patted Jing Qingyun's shoulder, her tone quite sentimental.
"Little Yunzi, I never would have guessed. I've always treated you like a brother, but you want to be my man, tsk tsk..."
Jing Qingyun's eyelashes trembled slightly, his already slightly red ears turned bright red, and a blush appeared on his face. Fortunately, his dark skin could cover most of the blush.
"Cough cough, Weiwei, I..."
"Don't speak."
Sheng Lingwei suddenly spoke, her expression becoming extremely serious, her beautiful eyes staring straight into the sky.
The clouds in the sky were shrouded in black mist, like a ferocious beast lurking within, giving people a sense of danger and panic.
The birds and beasts in the air flew low and fast, as if they had sensed some danger.
Jing Qingyun frowned slightly, then looked up at the sky. "Weiwei, the clouds in the sky are gradually increasing. This is a sign that it's going to rain."
Sheng Lingwei shook her head. "No, this is not just a sign of rain, it's a sign of hail."
"What? Hail?"
"Yes, carefully feel the wind direction and temperature in the air."
Following Sheng Lingwei's guidance, Jing Qingyun sensed the wind direction, and her face gradually became serious.
“Weiwei, there is a saying among farmers: ‘When bad clouds grow long before the wind, hail will fall with the wind.’ Strong winds often precede hail, and the wind direction changes drastically.”
At this time, the wind direction is unpredictable. If you pay close attention, you can feel that it is blowing a southerly wind continuously, and the wind strength is gradually increasing.
It's noon now, arguably the hottest time of day. When we were having lunch, it was indeed very hot, with waves of heat sweeping over us.
But now, the temperature has started to drop, which is very abnormal. Therefore, your guess was correct: hail is imminent.
Sheng Lingwei's eyes darkened slightly. She turned over and got off the recliner, calling out to the crowd:
"Listen up, everyone! It's about to hail! Pack your things and leave here immediately. Find a place to take shelter from the hail."
Furthermore, this hailstorm is destined to be unusual; it will be followed by continuous heavy rain, so you must plan ahead.
Everyone was instantly shocked and stood there dumbfounded.
It wasn't that they didn't believe Sheng Lingwei's words, but they were caught off guard by the sudden situation and didn't react in time.
The five women, including Rong Momo, were the first to react and quickly got to work, while also urging the others on.
"Hey, you idiots, what are you standing there for? Pack your things and find somewhere to hide from the hail!"
"Everyone, get moving! Our princess is a celestial being descended from heaven. If she says it will hail, it will definitely hail."
"Staying alive is the most important thing. If you don't want to live, just say so. Don't waste my princess's good intentions."
"..."
The officers, soldiers, and exiled prisoners then realized what was happening and hurriedly packed up their belongings. Fortunately, none of them had much, so the packing was quick.
Jing Qingyun felt heavy-hearted. Had he known that so many disasters would occur in this world, he should have studied this subject more.
But what's done is done, and saying anything more is pointless.
As her thoughts raced, Jing Qingyun had already formed a preliminary plan. She quickly put away the recliner and didn't forget to comfort Sheng Lingwei.
"Weiwei, don't worry. Right now, it's still a southeast wind. The hail will come when the wind turns to a northwest or north wind and the wind speed increases."
So, I estimate that we have about an hour to get to a safe place.
Sheng Lingwei raised an eyebrow: "Xiao Yunzi, I heard Chuanwu say a long time ago that there are no post stations nearby, and there are no villages or shops in sight. Where can we go?"
"Or I could just use my mental power to build a simple wooden shed right here. What do you think?"
"not good."
Jing Qingyun immediately rejected the idea, "Weiwei, I don't want you to work so hard. Although your mental strength is strong, these people can't rely on you to protect them for everything."
Moreover, reaching Yucheng County is not something that can be done overnight; there will undoubtedly be many hardships along the way, and they must all grow stronger.
He knew very well that most of these people were relatives of the Jing family.
If it weren't for his sake, Weiwei wouldn't have bothered with these people at all. As the head of the Jing family, he couldn't abandon them, whether out of benevolence or morality.
Ultimately, they were also implicated because of the Jing family.
Therefore, he will try his best to protect them, while also ensuring they can grow up quickly and not become a burden to Weiwei.
Sheng Lingwei shrugged. "Fine! I'll listen to you and not use my mental power. I was just thinking about it. I, Sheng Lingwei, am a big villain, you know. I'm not one to sacrifice myself for others."
