Li Jingchuan woke up?
Although it's late.
Li Qingluo also had to leave the city quickly before Duan Rongshi found out.
But when she heard that Li Jingchuan actually wanted to see her on his own initiative, she hesitated for a moment and decided to go.
Qingzhu Garden.
When Li Qingluo left, Li Jingchuan was taking medicine.
Seeing her coming, he pushed the medicine bowl slightly away with his hand.
"Go down."
When the maid saw Li Qingluo, she quickly stood up and greeted him, then retreated with Que'er who had followed Li Qingluo.
"Luo'er."
Li Jingchuan raised his head, looked at Li Qingluo with a dim gaze, and curled the corners of his mouth bitterly.
"I've known you for a long time, but this is the first time I'm going to truly face my true identity with you."
"I would like to formally introduce myself to you... My surname is Li and my given name is Jingchuan."
"I think I should be your illegitimate brother who has been separated from you for many years."
"Nice to meet you, Luo'er."
Li Qingluo turned her head away, took several deep breaths, and then turned back to look at him.
"So, you've been lying to me this whole time?"
"Since our first encounter in the Pei family dungeon, you knew who I was?"
Li Jingchuan: "No."
"West Market, the blacksmith shop. Do you remember it?"
Li Qingluo finally understood: "It's you!? Are you the young master of that blacksmith shop?"
"Later, you knew I was a member of the Li family, so you didn't want to take my drawings?"
Li Jingchuan coughed a few times, calmed his breath, and then slowly said, "Yes. In fact, I admire your talent very much. This is your natural talent, Luo'er."
"There are not many people in this world who can paint what's in their mind the moment they put pen to paper like you can."
"You were a girl who had never touched a sharp weapon. How long had it been since your grandmother found you? It's truly unbelievable."
"Although the drawings are indeed a bit ugly, your thought process is truly gifted."
"At that time, I didn't know you were also a pitiful child. So, after I found out you were a member of the Li family, I really wanted to stay away from you, so I broke my promise to you."
"This is my brother's fault. I apologize to you."
As he spoke, he started coughing again.
Li Qingluo paused, walked over and patted him on the back.
"Then, afterward, you repeatedly wanted to see me. Was it because you knew I was the daughter found by the Li family and wasn't favored? Was that different from what you imagined?"
Li Jingchuan nodded, "Yes... cough, cough cough..."
"However, I thought you didn't want to see me, so later on, I stopped looking for you."
Li Qingluo: "Your people stopped people on the street for no apparent reason and asked me to follow them. How would I know who they were?"
"Forget it, let's not talk about the past."
"You left a suicide note yesterday. Was it written on purpose for me to see?"
Li Jingchuan paused.
"I... yes..."
"But I don't mean to tease you. I really want to free myself."
Li Qingluo slowly lowered his hand and sneered silently, "So, you already knew I was the real Li Qingluo. When did you know for sure?"
Li Jingchuan sighed: "Yesterday, I knew it then and there."
"My mother was so desperate to save her son that she made a foolish choice."
"Luo'er, I can't stop her."
"But I can't just watch her hurt you. So I can only go along with your plan... It's better to let her realize the truth, and I can find a chance to free myself."
Li Qingluo's heart suddenly became complicated.
"You met me today because you want me to let your mother go?"
"But she wants to kill me, and you know I can't let her go."
Li Jingchuan: "So if I die, she won't think about it anymore."
Li Qingluo narrowed his eyes and suddenly became angry: "Li Jingchuan, you are determined to die, don't you have the willpower to live?"
"Do you really think that your mother and uncle can take my life?"
"You underestimate me too much!"
Seeing that she was angry, Li Jingchuan raised his hand, but then put it down helplessly.
"Luo'er, I know that asking you to pretend nothing happened is putting you in a difficult position."
"But if I give you all my wealth and power, can you save my mother's life?"
Li Qingluo: "Li Jingchuan, do you think I'm short of money and power now?"
"If you want your mother to survive, stop thinking about committing suicide!"
"Remember, she will live as long as you live."
"If you die, she will immediately follow you to the underworld."
After Li Qingluo finished speaking, he turned around and strode away.
When Li Jingchuan heard her words, he became so excited that he fell off the bed.
"Luo'er—Luo'er—"
Li Qingluo didn't look back.
She angrily left Qingzhu Garden with Que'er. After meeting up with Nanny Deng at the gate, she got on a carriage and quickly left the city.
Li Qingluo was thinking about Li Jingchuan and felt very upset.
Zheng Wanxiu, with her identity as the leader of the Lotus Sect, must not appear again under any circumstances.
As for Li Jingchuan, she didn't know how to settle him.
Let him and Aunt Zheng stay away from Jinling together?
Judging from his health, I'm afraid he won't survive this winter.
Leave him?
Forget it, I’ll talk about it when I come back this time.
Of course, if she can come back alive.
Madam Zheng: "Miss, where is Uncle De meeting us? We're almost out of town, why haven't we seen him yet?"
Li Qingluo: "I have sent him to Yangzhou in advance."
Nanny Zheng thought to herself: This time the old lady has entrusted me with an important task, to keep an eye on what the young lady is doing, but does she... really want to offend the young lady for the old lady?
