Qingyu, his character is as gentle as jade as his name. However, these are all illusions, all pretended by him.
Qingyu was a disciple from a large family. His mother was not of high status in the family. She was a beautiful dancer given to his father by someone else. There were many people like his mother in the family.
Their status is not much higher than that of the servants, and some of them are even bullied by the servants who flatter the powerful and look down on the weak.
Later, Qingyu was born, but his father, the head of the Qing family, did not even look at his mother more.
His mother hoped that he would be as gentle as jade like a gentleman, so she named him Qingyu.
Qingyu was precocious, but at that time he could not understand his mother. He felt that with his father's attitude towards his mother, his mother should have given up on that man long ago.
But Qingyu was wrong. His mother was very obsessed with that man. In the end, his mother was beaten to death because of a word from the wife of the head of the family, and was wrapped in a straw mat and thrown away.
Qingyu's knees were swollen and his head was broken from kneeling that day, and in the end he could only watch his mother die in front of him.
Before she died, his mother seemed to have suddenly come to her senses and told him to keep living. At that moment, Qingyu even felt a little ironic.
Later, Qingyu was turned into a servant of the Qing family by the wife of the head of the family. From a young master to a servant, there were countless people who wanted to laugh at him and bully him.
The man had many children, so why would he care about the son of a lowly dancer? He even wanted Qingyu to die quickly. After all, the son of a lowly person is also lowly.
After Qingyu's mother died, Qingyu's heart was filled with hatred, but he knew that he could not defeat the behemoth Qing family, so he wanted to find a strong enough backer to help him take revenge.
So, Qingyu learned to act clever and obedient. On the surface, he would silently endure being bullied, but secretly he would use tricks to deal with all those people.
The sudden death of a few servants in the huge Qing family would not attract any attention at all. As for his good brothers and sisters, good brothers and good sisters, he could not act rashly.
But after a few years, he still killed several people by accident. Qingyu thought that he would stay in the mud like this for the rest of his life and would never be able to get out of the quagmire.
But one time, an opportunity came. He heard his servants talking about the leader of the Qing Yuan Sect coming to visit their home in a few days.
Qingyu knew his chance had come. A cold light flashed in his eyes. As long as he entered the Qingyuan Sect, he would be able to escape the quagmire of the Qing family and one day complete his revenge.
Qingyu had a plan in mind. If the plan failed, he might end up like his mother, but if it succeeded, he would be able to enter the Qingyuan Sect and would no longer be bullied.
From this we can see that Qingyu was already a madman when he was a child, and he gambled with his own life.
In the end, he won the bet. The headmaster of the Qingyuan Sect, Su, felt sorry for him, thinking of the eldest disciple who had given him a headache on the mountain, and then looking at the pitiful but well-mannered Qingyu in front of him.
He was moved.
He thought that disciples from big families were different. Look at the demeanor they had. That brat Wen Shi could never learn it in his lifetime.
Then, Qingyu became the second disciple of Master Su. I have to say, Qingyu is really good at pretending. When Master Su took Qingyu away, he couldn't stop smiling.
When Qingyu left, she saw the Qing family patriarch, who was seeing them off, had a grim expression on his face. Seeing his grim expression, Qingyu smiled with satisfaction.
Then, this joy disappeared the moment he saw Wen Shi again, because he could tell at a glance that Wen Shi was not a good person.
As he expected, when Wen Shi saw him on the mountain, he whistled at him, quite rudely. Then he asked the headmaster Su: "Lao Deng, where did you find the coolies for me?"
Sect Leader Su looked at Qingyu hiding behind him, then at Wenshi behind him, and angrily shouted, "Wenshi, you little bastard, restrain yourself. This is your junior apprentice brother. Get along with him well from now on."
Wen Shi disapproved after hearing this and said, "Your position as the head of the sect will be passed to me in the future, so he is just here to do hard labor for me."
Sect Leader Su's forehead throbbed with anger. But considering Qingyu was also present, he couldn't scare his new disciple, so he swallowed his anger.
Wen Shi flashed Qing Yu another wicked smile. At that moment, Qing Yu gave up the idea of getting along peacefully with Wen Shi on the way here. It would be a matter of whether he could kill Wen Shi or not.
But he also didn't want people to talk about him as the psychotic junior brother. So Qingyu decided to use Wen Shi's psychosis to highlight his gentlemanly integrity. And use Wen Shi's stupidity to highlight his good qualities.
It really reflects the saying "It all depends on others to set off."
Compared with Wen Shi, Qingyu's reputation is the best. He and Wen Shi are two extremes. Wen Shi has a terrible reputation, while Qingyu is praised as a gentleman by everyone he talks about.
So Sect Leader Su liked to take Qingyu out the most. After all, who wouldn’t like a gentlemanly and cute child?
Sect Leader Su also came to terms with things after being scolded by Wen Shi. As long as Qingyu didn't do anything unforgivable, he wouldn't say a single harsh word to Qingyu.
One day, Wen Shi was probably lectured by Master Su again using Qingyu as an example, so Wen Shi came to Qingyu angrily.
Then he said to him, "How long are you going to pretend? Do you really think I can't tell who you are? You made me feel inexplicably uncomfortable when we first met. Later, I went back and thought about it. You have the same aura as me, right?"
Qingyu pretended to be confused and looked at him and said, "Senior brother, I don't understand what you are saying." Wen Shi looked at him and gritted his teeth in annoyance and cursed.
Then he took the jade and brought it to a cliff, pushed him to the edge and threatened him: "If you don't tell the truth, I will throw you off from here."
As soon as these words were spoken, Qingyu's expression changed instantly. He looked at Wen with a smile, and his fox eyes curved into a dangerous arc.
He looked at Wen Shi and said, "Brother, why are you so irritable? Can't you just talk to him nicely?"
Because of this, Qingyu began to help Wen Shi avoid punishment from Master Su. But after avoiding it, Qingyu would secretly find an opportunity to tell Master Su about a bad thing Wen Shi had done that Master Su didn't know about. Then Master Su would catch Wen Shi off guard and beat him up when he thought he had dodged it.
Afterwards, Qingyu pretended to show concern again.
After this happened so many times, no matter how stupid Wen Shi was, he realized that something was wrong. He found Qingyu, said some harsh words to her, and then left.
In the days that followed, the two people had less and less interactions.
Wen Shi's reputation was getting worse and worse, while Qingyu was the exact opposite. But after pretending to be a gentleman for a long time, Qingyu also thought about becoming a true gentleman.
But then he thought of the Qing family and gave up the idea.
Qingyu also thought about not pretending anymore, like Wen Shi, who was completely clear whether he was evil or crazy, but then he found that he couldn't do it. He could only continue to pretend, continue to deceive others and himself.
Just when he thought he would live a boring life, the appearance of a person changed everything.
