"I think so." Qu Lingyuan grabbed him with her slightly cold little hand and pulled him towards the Pavilion Master.
Yu Jinjiang was a little resistant, but still followed her obediently step by step towards the "dangerous person".
Qu Lingyuan was not afraid at all.
To this day, Wangshengge is still seeking revenge for the bandit's den, which shows that he attaches great importance to family ties.
Now that he knows that there are still relatives alive from that time, he will never do it again no matter what.
The Pavilion Master, who had been so majestic just now, was a little at a loss when facing the soft and cute little sister. He didn't know where to put his hands and feet, and blinked awkwardly at her.
"Would you like to introduce yourself?" Qu Lingyuan looked at him with amusement.
"My...my name is Qu Qi." Qu Qi answered in a muffled voice.
"Pfft..." Qu Lingyuan couldn't help but burst out laughing when she heard it.
Cookies? Sounds delicious.
Everyone present was confused and looked at her.
Suddenly realizing that ancient people didn't know that cookies were a type of biscuit, Qu Lingyuan suppressed her smile and said casually, "My name is Qu Lingyuan. He gave me the name."
She pointed at Yu Jinjiang and continued to introduce him to Qu Qi, "He was the one who picked me up and brought me up in Huashan. So not only can you not kill me, you can't kill him either."
Qu Qi forced a smile with difficulty.
It is really heartbreaking that your own sister was raised by your enemy.
"I know your family's surname is Qu, but I don't know what her original name is..." Yu Jinjiang smiled and explained the origin of her name.
Qu Qi nodded to show that he understood.
My sister didn't have a name when she was born.
When he fell ill, there was fighting and killing in the village all day long, and the doctor could only treat external injuries, so his aunt took him away from home to seek medical treatment and medicine, which saved him from disaster.
When he returned home, the entire village had been wiped out. He and his aunt thought that their younger sister had also died in the catastrophe, but they did not expect that she had been taken up the mountain by the people of Huashan.
If I had known this earlier, I would have gone looking for him sooner. Now that he has grown up, I'm afraid he has already developed feelings for Huashan, which is very troublesome.
"Who wants to kill us?" In order to confirm this matter, Qu Lingyuan asked another question to be safe, so that Yu Jinjiang could hear the truth.
"You are one of Huashan's own people, Shi Ran," Qu Qi said with a hint of sarcasm, turning to look at Yu Jinjiang, "Brother, you are not good at managing your disciples. You harmed your own people and almost made me kill my own sister."
Yu Jinjiang lowered his eyes and didn't look at him, his heart full of anger.
Is it really her?
I thought that Qu Lingyuan's kindness in letting her go would make her feel guilty and live an honest life, but I didn't expect her to be so stubborn.
I let her go last time, and I have fulfilled my master's request. I must not show mercy this time.
Before Yu Jinjiang could figure out how to deal with Shi Ran, Qu Qi dropped another big piece of news.
"Your former leader and that... Gu Chi? They were also killed by my people, and the clue was given by Shi Ran." Qu Qi said without hesitation. With Qu Lingyuan here, it is absolutely impossible for both sides to use force again.
Qu Lingyuan was watching the fun from the side. He was indeed her biological brother. Before she could ask anything, Qu Qi told her everything without leaving out a single word.
The intense anger almost made Yu Jinjiang lose his mind.
Master and Gu Chi were both killed by Shi Ran himself. How could she have the nerve to use their deaths to act pitiful in front of him?
The master's last words before his death were simply a joke. The person he wanted to protect before his death killed him with his own hands.
"Little sister, come back to Wangsheng Pavilion with me?" Qu Qi suddenly said, "Let them solve their Huashan affairs on their own. I am your family."
Hearing this, Yu Jinjiang looked at Qu Lingyuan in a daze.
Will she leave too?
After all, she had always wanted a family.
Yu Jinjiang's anger, sadness, and hope were all concentrated in his pupils, and there was a hint of pity on his handsome face.
Like... a big dog that's about to be abandoned.
Reaching out to hold him soothingly, Qu Lingyuan smiled faintly and shook her head at Qu Qi.
"No, I want to go back to Huashan."
Qu Qi's eyes widened slightly, and he said hurriedly: "But I am your biological brother, and Wangsheng Pavilion is your home..."
Qu Lingyuan's eyes became more gentle, and the hand she held onto Yu Jinjiang tightened. "Maybe it's because I like him?"
The love in her eyes was too obvious, and Qu Qi lowered his head in dejection.
He thought his family could finally be reunited, but he forgot that his sister was old enough to get married.
Yu Jinjiang...
Qu Qi also had to admit that he was a very outstanding man.
He was able to sit on the position of the headmaster at such a young age. His temperament and appearance were rare in the world. I am not even half as charming as him.
Having lived with such a person day and night since childhood, it is not surprising that Qu Lingyuan would be attracted to him.
Yu Jinjiang's uneasiness was wiped away by Qu Lingyuan's words. He held the slightly cool little hand in his backhand, calmed himself, and said to Qu Qi, "We'll leave first. After we've dealt with the matter at Huashan... we'll visit Wangsheng Pavilion."
By then, it’s time to discuss marriage.
Qu Qi had nothing to say. He waved to the two of them and gave Qu Lingyuan a serious look. "Go and take good care of my sister. If anything happens to her, I will not stop until I die."
Yu Jinjiang's anger was temporarily swept away, and a smile hung on the corner of his mouth: "Don't worry, if anything happens to her, I won't let myself go."
————
The assassination at Wangsheng Pavilion ended there, and the two sides did not even fight.
Qu Lingyuan and Yu Jinjiang's plan to play at the foot of the mountain for a few days also came to nothing, and they hurried back to Huashan.
Shi Ran was staying in his room in a state of anxiety.
Judging from the time, the assassination should have been going on for a while, but I don’t know what the outcome is.
With the ability of Wangsheng Pavilion, killing Qu Lingyuan is definitely not a problem, but Yu Jinjiang... hopes that he will not be so stupid as to hurt himself in order to protect Qu Lingyuan.
She was obviously overthinking it.
The bolted door was violently kicked open, and the two doors fell crookedly to the ground. The cold wind rushed into the room, giving Shi Ran goose bumps.
Turning her head to look at the door, two figures stung her eyes.
"Qu...Qu Lingyuan?" Her voice trembled and her hands and feet shook.
How could she still be alive? There wasn't even a trace of a fight... Did they never leave the mountain? Or did Wangsheng Pavilion break their promise and not take action at all?
"Are you trying to ask me why I'm still alive? Huh?" Qu Lingyuan stepped on the door panel that was kicked down by Yu Jinjiang with her shoes, and walked towards the inner room step by step, with an awe-inspiring aura around her.
It was the first time that Yu Jinjiang saw her so handsome. He couldn't help but stare at her back for a while, then immediately shook his head.
Now is not the time to indulge in the lady's beauty.
"You..." Shi Ran stood beside the bed, wanting to escape, but there was nowhere to retreat.
"Looking to Wangsheng Pavilion to assassinate me is such an unwise choice, Shi Ran. Don't you notice that the Pavilion Master and I look a lot like each other? He's my biological brother!" Qu Lingyuan moved closer, and her tone suddenly became heavier, scaring Shi Ran so much that he sat down on the ground.
