It was like turning on some kind of switch.
Jialan lowered his eyes and gazed intently at Ning Qing.
She kept wondering to herself, "Could he also be keeping me as a male concubine?"
The moment the thought crossed my mind, I immediately dismissed it. No way! No way! He said he liked himself.
Only when I saw him disappear did I truly understand my own heart.
It was a feeling of panic, helplessness, and deep reluctance that arose from the heart; a fear of losing him, a fear of never seeing him again.
Jiaqian stood stubbornly in place, her gaze fixed intently on the two men's answer.
In fact, the moment he saw the two of them smile at each other, he already had a vague answer in his heart.
But he stubbornly wanted to get a definite answer from both of them.
He didn't believe his brother was a coward who clung to life.
She might choose to be with a man so that she can have someone to rely on.
Even though this man had offered them help on numerous occasions.
But that cannot be a reason!
Ning Qing sat up and took Jia Lan's slender hand.
She smiled at Jiaqian, who was standing not far away.
"Brother-in-law, as you can see, I admire your brother and wish to grow old with him."
Jialan and Jiaqian both turned their gazes to Ning Qing.
His eyes were filled with shock.
Garan was shocked that this person would be so open about their relationship in front of others.
They also promised to grow old together, a promise made for a lifetime.
A lifetime!
What shocked Jiaqian was that this person could speak so frankly and so shockingly.
He stood there, stunned for a moment.
She wondered to herself, "Does my older brother think the same way?"
She couldn't help but look at her older brother.
He saw his older brother gazing deeply at the person beside him, his eyes filled with emotion.
The two were gazing at each other with deep affection.
Only two words remained in Jiaqian's mind: "Crazy."
Either these two people in front of me are crazy, or the world is crazy.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but when he saw the tangled threads of affection in their eyes...
Then I was speechless again, unable to say anything.
Perhaps they like each other?
But... this kind of feeling...
The two were staring at each other when Jialan spoke first, calling out softly.
"grown ups……".
Ning Qing nodded, a faint smile playing on her lips.
"Yes, my wife."
Garan glanced at Garan, who was standing motionless in place, with a hint of worry.
"Sir, I would like to take my younger brother back first."
Ning Qing gripped his hand tightly.
"Don't you need me to come along?"
Garan shook his head.
"It only takes me to talk to him."
He looked again at Jiaqian, who was standing not far away.
"He should be able to understand us."
Ning Qing raised her hand, gently stroked his back, and spoke softly.
"It doesn't matter if he doesn't understand. Just remember, I will always stand behind you."
Jialan nodded, a beautiful smile curving her lips.
He gazed intently at Ning Qing once more.
“I understand, sir.”
She stood up and went to Jiaqian's side.
She took his hand.
She pulled him outside.
Jialan took two steps, then turned back and smiled at Ning Qing.
"My lord, so am I."
After saying that, he grabbed Jiaqian, who had a complicated expression on her face, and quickly left.
Ning Qing watched them leave.
He took out a flask of wine from his spatial storage and took a sip.
The aroma of the wine instantly bursts in your mouth.
