503 Dawn, grow old with you

How to answer this question?

The Ninth Prince's handsome face turned slightly red, and he felt very uncomfortable. Seeing Feng Qingchen's interested face, as if he would not give up until he got the answer, the Ninth Prince understood that he had to answer this question.

The Ninth Prince forced himself to remain calm, thought for a moment and decided to tell the truth. He could not miss the opportunity to win the heart of the beauty just for fear of embarrassment.

"Of course it's true. How could I lie to you about this? You are my first woman and my last."

"I believe the first one, but the last one is a bit mysterious. If I die young, or die before you, will you live alone in your next life and not look for another woman?" Is the Ninth Prince so infatuated? Why didn't she notice it? Could it be that she found a treasure?

Men like this are almost extinct. Is what the Ninth Prince said just a talk? Feng Qingchen thought uncertainly.

"Don't talk nonsense. What life or death? You won't die before me." The Ninth Prince hugged her tightly. For some reason, he had a bad feeling when he heard these words. Something was blocking his heart, making him feel depressed. Only by hugging Feng Qingchen tightly could he feel a little relieved.

"Life and death, illness and death are normal. No one can be immortal. Sooner or later, I will die too. I only said it is possible. I may die earlier than before. This is just a hypothesis." As long as it is not a wasted death, Feng Qingchen can accept it. If he can live forever, he is not an old monster.

"That makes sense. What if I die before you? What will you do?" Feng Qingchen's explanation made the Ninth Prince feel a little relieved, but the shadow in his heart would not disappear for a while.

Feng Qingchen didn't even think about it, and said: "If you die before me, I will definitely forget you, find someone better than you, and live a happy life with you, so that you will regret it and want to die again."

Feng Qingchen raised her chin proudly. She thought that the Ninth Prince would be angry after hearing her answer, but she didn't expect that the Ninth Prince would be silent for a while and then nodded in agreement: "This way I will feel relieved. If that day really comes, I hope you can do this. I don't want you to be sad and in pain because of my death."

What he did would lead to eternal damnation if he was not careful, and death would be the outcome if he failed. If Feng Qingchen could really forget him after his death, then when the moment of his death came, he would have no regrets.

Although, his heart ached so much that he couldn't breathe whenever he thought of Feng Qingchen being with another man, he still hoped that Feng Qingchen could find someone who loved her after his death. He couldn't give Feng Qingchen the happiness, but he hoped that others could give it to her.

Feng Qingchen was stunned: "What are you talking about? How can it be so easy to die? Good people don't live long, evil people leave a thousand years, we are all great evils."

Feng Qingchen's nose was sore, and he pounded the Ninth Uncle's chest: "Don't worry, even if we won't die for a thousand years, we won't die early. I'm an excellent doctor. With me here, it won't be easy for you to die. We will all be fine, live well, and then, we will grow old together."

This time, Feng Qingchen took the initiative to hug the Ninth Uncle and found a comfortable position in his arms: "As long as you don't let me down, I will accompany you to grow old together."

It’s not said love, but it’s deeper than saying love.

"Okay, let's grow old together." The Ninth Prince rested his chin on Feng Qingchen's head, his eyes sparkling.

The most beautiful words in the world are not "I love you", but "I will grow old with you".

"Yes, yes, that day will come." As long as you don't let me down, that day will definitely come, because Feng Qingchen will never let you down.

Feng Qingchen rubbed the Ninth Prince's chest and yawned, "Okay, stop thinking about it, go to sleep, and we'll talk in the morning if there's anything."

The two of them slept in each other's arms, warm and beautiful.

However, this beauty was too short-lived. When Feng Qingchen woke up, she found that she was the only one in the room. She felt indescribable loss and sadness in her heart.

How she wished that every day when she woke up, the Ninth Prince would be by her side, and when she opened her eyes dazedly, he would give her a good morning kiss and say, "Wake up."

What a humble request, but it was a luxury for her. Even if the whole world knew about the relationship between her and the Ninth Prince, they could not go out together because they were not husband and wife, not a recognized couple.

Feng Qingchen sat on the bed, hugging the quilt. The concave pillow beside her and the slightly warm quilt told her that the man next to her had just left.

My eyes are sore. Yesterday's sweetness and love words seemed to have turned into an irony this morning.

Growing old together is a very distant thing, and they still have a long way to go.

Alas... Feng Qingchen sighed. After sighing, she realized that sighing so early in the morning would ruin her good luck. Feng Qingchen kicked the pillow that the Ninth Prince had used to rest his head, venting her dissatisfaction.

Forget it, she didn't want to think about the Ninth Uncle anymore. She should focus her energy on today's competition. Feng Qingchen lifted the quilt, got out of bed barefoot, opened the door, and found that the courtyard where she lived was quiet and none of the maids had come.

What happened? Usually they showed up early. Then she thought of what happened last night. Feng Qingchen understood that the Ninth Prince must have done something to knock down the maids around her.

Feng Qingchen frowned and had to do it herself. She was used to a life where people had everything handed to her, but she was not used to it. Fortunately, she was going to compete in martial arts with Su Wan today, so she was wearing tight clothes, which were much simpler than formal wear.

Picking up the pistol beside her, Feng Qingchen thought about it and decided to put it into the smart medical bag. Even if there was no inspection when entering the palace, she and Su Wan would definitely check before the competition to make sure that someone was carrying a hidden weapon or something, and the pistol would not be easy to show.

When Feng Qingchen checked again and again and found nothing was missing, she was about to go out to fetch water when the four maids, Chun Hui, Qiu Hua, Xia Wan, and Dong Qing, came in with blushing faces: "Miss, I overslept, please punish me."

The four girls looked annoyed, but they didn't look like they were faking it. Feng Qingchen didn't argue with them, after all, it wasn't their fault: "Be more careful next time. Forget about this time. Comb my hair for me. By the way, where are Tong Jue and Tong Yao?"

"I went out of town yesterday and haven't come back yet." Chun Hui ruffled Feng Qingchen's hair to make it easier to comb.

Chunhuan is good at dressing up, Qiuhua is good at needlework, Xiawan is a good cook and Dongqing can keep accounts. The four maids have their own strengths.

"Go back and send someone to look for her, and make sure nothing happens." The Ninth Prince was too insidious. The treatment of the maids from the Ninth Prince's Mansion and the maids from the Wang family was too different. I don't know how worried Tong Jue and Tong Yao would be if they were outside the city for one night. I don't know if the two little girls would be in danger.

Thinking of this, Feng Qingchen felt very guilty. She had forgotten about everyone last night. It was true that beauty could lead people astray...

"Don't worry, young lady. Tong Jue and Tong Yao will bring guards with them. They both know some self-defense skills."

"We should take people to look for him. It would be bad if we run into trouble outside the city. I will go to the palace later. If there is anything, go to the city gate to find Zhai Dongming. Just tell him that the Ninth Prince asked you to look for him."

It would be a waste if Zhai Dongming was not used. He would definitely try every possible way to please the Ninth Uncle and ask for his forgiveness. When faced with the Ninth Uncle's "order", Zhai Dongming would definitely complete it as soon as possible...
