Leng Family of China
Leng Qingning has been back in the modern world for two months and has fully recovered, but she is still drowsy for half the day.
Her parents took her to the hospital for a checkup, but they couldn't find anything wrong.
During this period, Ji Heng frequently came to see her, but she always turned him away.
Qin Anran told her that in the months before she was hospitalized, her group of girlfriends rarely saw her, and Qin Anran and her friends went to Xiao Ning's house twice to ask her out, but she was refused both times.
Xiao Ning's cold attitude and refusal to interact with them hurt their feelings, and afterwards, her best friends dared not come over anymore.
Qin Anran questioned Leng Qingning about what had happened during that period.
Why ignore them?
Leng Qingning had a headache. She solemnly apologized to her and explained that she had suffered from temporary amnesia and did not remember what happened during that time. She asked Qin Anran to convey her apologies to Tang Shuangshuang and the others.
Leng Qingning was sincere, and Qin Anran wasn't truly blaming her; the two best friends reconciled.
During the day, Leng Qingning pretended to be nonchalant and interacted with her family, but at night she tossed and turned, unable to sleep, recalling the people and events that had happened in Dayue over and over again.
I miss her family, loved ones, and friends so much…
One morning, when Leng Qingning woke up, her parents had already left.
She went to the kitchen to prepare noodles.
"Ding-dong." The doorbell rang.
The person who came was actually Ji Heng?
"Why are you here again?" Leng Qingning thought to herself, "You're quite good at timing things."
"Ningning, look what I brought you!" Ji Heng asked with a big smile, carrying a bag of pork ribs.
Leng Qingning looked puzzled, and Ji Heng explained, "I went back to the Ji family's old house and learned how to stew pork ribs from Aunt Wang, as well as some simple side dishes. Ningning, shall I cook them for you?"
"No…"
Before he could finish speaking, Ji Heng went into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, took out the side dishes and started washing them, looking every bit the perfect stay-at-home husband.
Looking at the busy figure in the kitchen, Leng Qingning was a little stunned, but after feeling helpless, she ignored him and lay on the sofa to watch TV.
Two hours later, Ji Heng came out carrying a fragrant bowl of pork rib soup. "Ningning, time to eat."
A table full of dishes, vibrant in color and fragrant in aroma.
It's hard to believe that Ji Heng actually did this.
"Try it." Ji Heng served Leng Qingning a bowl of pork rib soup.
"Thank you." Leng Qingning took it and drank a small sip.
The taste is authentic!
"It tastes great," Leng Qingning praised sincerely.
Ji Heng thoughtfully served Leng Qingning food. After tasting each dish, Leng Qingning was pleasantly surprised; Ji Heng really did have a talent for cooking.
"Thank you, Ji Heng."
"I'm glad you like it." Ji Heng smiled knowingly.
Ji Heng's smile was so clear and sincere that it was dazzling. Leng Qingning quickly lowered her head and focused on eating.
The more Ji Heng cared about Leng Qingning, the more uncomfortable Leng Qingning felt.
It's better to say things clearly.
After the meal, Ji Heng was clearing away the dishes when he suddenly heard something that hurt him deeply.
He stopped what he was doing and looked at Leng Qingning.
"Ningning, what did you just say?"
"I said, thank you for today, but please don't come looking for me again," Leng Qingning calmly repeated.
She didn't want to waste each other's time.
Ji Heng wiped his hands clean and sat down in front of Leng Qingning, asking, "Why? Ningning, won't you give me a chance?"
"There will be no future between us, Ji Heng. We missed our chance long ago."
Ji Heng paused for a moment, then a look of sadness appeared on his face.
"But... I've never changed my feelings for you, Ningning. I've always loved you. I've thought about you every moment of the past three years. Please forgive me. We... can start over."
“It’s impossible, Ji Heng.” Leng Qingning shook her head.
"Why is it impossible? Are you still blaming me?"
Has she fallen in love with someone else?
Ji Heng's eyes gradually welled up with tears.
She pleaded almost desperately, "Ningning, please give me another chance, please..."
Leng Qingning avoided Ji Heng's gaze and hardened her heart.
"It's impossible for us, Ji Heng. It's too late. I... have already fallen in love with someone else."
What? Ji Heng couldn't believe it.
"Are you telling the truth?" He had clearly checked, and Leng Qingning hadn't had a boyfriend in the past three years.
"real."
"No way, this can't be." Tears streamed down her face. "You're lying to me. You don't even have anyone you like."
Leng Qingning reiterated, "Ji Heng, I didn't lie to you. You should leave now and don't come back again."
Ji Heng still didn't believe it, and asked in a trembling voice:
"who is he?"
Leng Qingning sighed, "Don't ask anymore, you don't know them."
"them?"
Ji Heng thought he had misheard.
What do you mean by "them"? Does that mean you've dated several other people in the past three years?
"Yes, they are all people I love. I'm going back to them. It's over between you and me."
Leng Qingning thought about it every night. She couldn't let go of A-Che and the others. She had to find a way to return to Dayue.
Ji Heng was stunned. What did this mean?
Did you talk to several people at the same time?
Ji Heng's eyes widened, as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.
How many relationships are you juggling?
"What do you mean by this?" Ji Heng couldn't believe that Leng Qingning would do something so outrageous.
“It’s exactly what you think. I’ve fallen in love with several people at the same time, and they love me too. They are very important to me. Ji Heng, my husbands are still waiting for me. I need to go back to them. Please leave.” Leng Qingning said without any mercy.
A bucket of cold water was poured over Ji Heng, leaving him feeling chilled all over.
After a long silence, Ji Heng stood up, gave Leng Qingning a deep look, and turned away in anguish.
——
On their way to Kongmen Mountain, Xiao Ning and his group encountered many followers, all of whom were from Cangqiong and had come to spy on the young king of Dayue.
Xiao Ning silenced all the people who came.
The scouts behind were terrified and dared not follow any further.
Kongmen Mountain Yueling Peak
Wen Yanche guarded Leng Qingning's soul body without moving an inch, and had lost a lot of weight in the past few days.
When he first arrived, Master Kongchen sent him back, but he refused and begged Master Kongchen to let him see Leng Qingning one last time.
Master Kongchen was moved. He took a strand of Leng Qingning's hair, cast a divination spell on him, and placed a restriction on him. Only after confirming that he would not pose a threat to Leng Qingning did he let him enter the mountain.
Contrary to his expectations, he only saw a golden lamp.
Master Kongchen explained the whole story to him. He went from being shocked and disbelieving at first to accepting the truth, feeling extremely distressed and heartbroken.
Since then, Wen Yanche has stayed by the Soul Gathering Lamp day after day, while Master Kongchen shakes his head and sighs.
When Xiao Ning and the others arrived, they saw a stunningly handsome man with swollen eyes, looking extremely haggard, pale, and forlorn, standing forlornly beside the golden cup.
One can only imagine how much pain he was in...
Biluo begged Xiaoning to stay and take care of their master.
She wanted to protect His Highness's soul together with the Lord.
Xiao Ning silently agreed. There wasn't much time left, and she needed to make the most of every second to cultivate.
Together with Kong Xuanzi, they paid a visit to Master Kong Chen and briefly explained the situation of Dayue.
