Lu Qingyan is certainly not a child, but a blade of grass that has lived for countless years...
This is her original form, but apart from the first few years when she transformed into her original form to absorb spiritual energy, she seems to prefer using a human body.
Rong Qing was aware of all this.
"Ye Li, she's fine," Rong Qing said, his eyes sparkling with a hint of light, which made Ye Li feel a little better.
“You’ve always been quite stubborn. No matter how much I say to you, it’s useless. I’m afraid that even if you suffer in the end, you won’t admit your mistakes like anyone else. Instead, you’ll think that person had their reasons.” Ye Li said, a sarcastic smile playing on her lips. “Rong Qing, I’ve always wondered why someone as compassionate as you was born into the Rong family. You might as well shave your head and become a monk in a temple, chanting sutras and saving all living beings. That would definitely be a good place for you.”
Rong Qing's expression remained unchanged; he simply nodded and admitted, "In the past, I was indeed a bit too soft-hearted. Ye Li, don't worry, I will never do that again."
"What are you promising me?" Ye Li gave a wry smile. "You should tell that to your parents."
Rong Qing's parents in this life were both great heroes. If it weren't for the need to continue their bloodline, Rong Qing might never have been born. But after Rong Qing was born, they were even more disappointed, because from childhood to adulthood, he had been excessively kind.
Originally, Rong's parents intended to hand over the family business to Ye Li, an outsider, but Ye Li refused to accept it and instead expressed that she would do her best to assist Rong Qing.
Looking back on those past events, Ye Li still has no regrets.
So what if he didn't gain that power? He already possesses far more now than before. His biological parents always loved their eldest son the most, and even though his older brother was in poor health and unable to do anything, it couldn't stop their love for him. On the contrary, he was like a tool, used whenever needed, forced to exert himself, and never had the right to refuse.
Until he met the Rong family, it was the Rong family that made everything different. It was the Rong family's support that made his parents see his greatest potential. Gradually, they stopped forcing him and he began to have his own life.
Ye Li felt nothing but deep pity for her elder brother, aside from initial envy and jealousy.
In fact, wasn't his older brother also a pawn? He was just more obedient and couldn't be moved.
"Whatever," Ye Li said lazily, clearly not wanting to talk about people and things that didn't interest her.
Rong Qing left, but Ye Li was still thinking about these things.
Ye Li had been interested in Lu Qingyan for a while, but that interest has faded now.
In truth, he himself knew that if he could have stopped Rong Qing, none of those things would have happened.
So even if he wanted to stop it, it was useless. He could only hope that the girl he met this time wasn't someone with ulterior motives.
Thinking of Lu Qingyan, Ye Li surprisingly didn't change her expression.
He seemed to have thought of something, and pulled out a small photograph from his pocket. Looking at the smiling girl in the old photo, all the hostility in his eyes vanished instantly.
He stared at the girl's smiling face, and then, as if struck by a thought, a contented smile appeared on his face.
