Feng Ruqing looked at the young man"s clear eyes. She finally smiled. "Just go home, but you must remember that the princess"s manor will always be your home.""My manor is forever your home…"
The word "home" was once a thing that he had never dared to hope for, but it warmed his heart today.
The warmth made him reluctant to let go.
"Xiao Qing, thank you…"
"Thank you for appearing in my life in this life."
"Thank you for giving me a home."
Qin Chen did not bother Feng Ruqing. He turned and walked into the night.
At that moment, his face was stoic and his eyes were looked ahead firmly.
"Since you like him…"
"Then I will not allow anyone to ruin your happiness!
"Anyone!
"This is all that I can do for you!"
Feng Ruqing stared blankly at Qin Chen as he simply disappeared.
The young man"s back gave off a sense of loneliness.
It seemed that he was the only one left in this world…
***
A sick and beautiful lady was holding onto her servant as she carefully sat down in the arbor.
Her face was pale and lack of any color of life. She pursed her lips gently as her delicate figure seemed to look like she might fall down at any given time.
"My daughter, how come you are out again?" A gorgeous woman quickly walked toward Fei"er. The woman felt distressed looking at her pale face. "You are so weak. Who has let you out? Liu Xia!"
She screamed and the servant standing next to her immediately kneeled down. The servant was stunned and panicked.
"Mother." Qin Fei"er signaled her servant to leave. She then turned to look at the woman. "Don"t blame my servant. I planned… Cough cough, to come out and have some fresh air because I was too bored."
"You have been a lot better in the past few years. However, your condition has worsened recently. I have already said that we should not have let Qin Chen go. Your father has not gone to him because he thought you have completely recovered."
The woman frowned and sighed helplessly.
Qin Fei"er pursed her pale lips together. "Mother… Brother… will he come back?"
"You have been so good to him since he was a child. If he doesn"t come back, isn"t he an ungrateful person like a white-eyed wolf?" The lady snorted coldly. "He must have suffered a lot outside. Now he must know that the Qin family has treated him so well. We had only fed him some medicine from time to time and provided you with his blood as a drug primer in the past few years. What else did we ask him to do? In fact, we even addressed him as the young master of the Qin family. What else does he want?"
Qin Fei"er felt aggrieved listening to the woman"s words. She frowned. "Mother, we—the Qin family, owe him a lot and that cannot be repaid with fame and fortune. Moreover, he never knew that the Qin family"s ident.i.ty is fake. If he knew that he stole him away, the Qin family…"
The fortune-teller said that she was born to be weak years ago. If she wanted to survive, she could only find her savior in the eastern part of the secular world.
Then suddenly… the Qin family discovered Qin Chen!
That family seemed to have a pair of twins—a boy and a girl. Moreover, Qin Chen"s physique was special and was suitable to be a pill-popper. So, Qin Chen was brought back to the Qin family.
The Qin family had fabricated stories, again and again, to make him the so-called savior just so he would cooperate willingly.
But…
Qin Fei"er had always been dissatisfied with the measure that the Qin family had taken. Nonetheless, she could not do anything since her parents insisted on their way of doing it.
