Chapter 137 I'm Waiting for Your Answer
Qin Xuanyu's sudden closeness caused Jiang Qingyue to involuntarily lean back, her mouth blurting out before she could think, "I wasn't thinking about you!"
After saying that, Jiang Qingyue realized how much misunderstanding her words had caused. She opened her mouth, but in the end, she kept quiet to avoid making things worse.
"Did I ask you a question? Why are you in such a hurry to answer?" Qin Xuanyu couldn't help but chuckle.
Jiang Qingyue angrily pushed Qin Xuanyu, but failed to move him and was instead grabbed by Qin Xuanyu.
"you……"
"Qingyue, you delivered yourself to my door..." Qin Xuanyu murmured softly, his voice just loud enough for Jiang Qingyue to hear.
Jiang Qingyue's heart skipped a beat; for a moment, she was already bewitched by Qin Xuanyu's voice.
"Qin Xuanyu, I...I have something to discuss with you." Jiang Qingyue quickly explained, afraid that Qin Xuanyu would misunderstand her purpose.
"Then why did you think of coming to find me?"
"I..." Jiang Qingyue couldn't finish her sentence.
Why? She didn't know either. When the incident happened and her grandfather wasn't around, her first thought was to find Qin Xuanyu. It seemed... to have become a habit.
"Because you care, because you have me in your heart, you instinctively choose to rely on me. Qingyue, I have already faced my own heart, are you still unwilling to face your own heart?"
Qin Xuanyu pressed closer, their breaths mingling and audible.
Jiang Qingyue suddenly pushed Qin Xuanyu away, "You...you go back first, I need to rest."
At this moment, Jiang Qingyue's mind was in turmoil.
Like? Since her past life, she no longer knows what liking is, nor does she dare to like anymore.
The man who once swore eternal love to her turned out to be her accomplice in killing her, and her life ended tragically.
Although Qin Xuanyu and Qin Jinghao are different, she no longer dares to easily give her heart away.
But there was another voice in my heart, clamoring and urging me to get a little closer to Qin Xuanyu, and a little closer still.
Jiang Qingyue was caught in a state of confusion and entanglement.
Qin Xuanyu sighed helplessly and patted Jiang Qingyue's head. "You usually act recklessly, but now you're hesitant and cautious. Fine, I'll give you three days. I'll wait for your answer."
After saying that, Qin Xuanyu's figure gradually disappeared into the distance, finally vanishing from Jiang Qingyue's sight.
After Qin Xuanyu left, Jiang Qingyue's heart remained unsettled for a long time. She tossed and turned, constantly thinking about Qin Xuanyu's words.
Yes, it seems she really has fallen for Qin Xuanyu...
No, I have important business to discuss with him, so why...?
Jiang Qingyue scratched her head in frustration.
The next day, Jiang Qingyue could only look for another opportunity.
Early the next morning, Jiang Qingyue threw herself into the task of treating the wounded.
The border fighting had just subsided, giving everyone a chance to catch their breath. However, Jiang Qingyue knew that this was only a temporary calm, and an even bigger storm was yet to come. She also didn't know how her grandfather was doing.
After a busy day, Jiang Qingyue was exhausted, but she was still full of hope, sitting in her tent and constantly looking towards the entrance.
They waited and waited, but after a long time, they still didn't see that figure.
Jiang Qingyue lay down in a huff, closed her eyes, and did it all in one go.
But her disordered breathing revealed her anger.
Finally, just as Jiang Qingyue was about to fall asleep, there was another noise at the door.
Jiang Qingyue sat up abruptly, then, as if remembering something, calmly lay back down.
Qin Xuanyu saw all her little actions and couldn't help but chuckle.
"Alright, stop pretending to be asleep. You've been waiting for me, so you already have an answer?" Qin Xuanyu asked knowingly.
"I didn't wait for you," Jiang Qingyue replied, feigning indifference.
"Okay, if you don't have it, then..."
"Qin Xuanyu!" Jiang Qingyue interrupted Qin Xuanyu, "I have something I want to tell you."
So Jiang Qingyue told Qin Xuanyu everything she had seen and heard at Chilinpo, and also handed over the silver coin to Qin Xuanyu.
Qin Xuanyu remained calm, his emotions completely unwavering, as if this was all expected.
"You already knew about this?" Jiang Qingyue had already guessed it from Qin Xuanyu's reaction.
Qin Xuanyu nodded. "It was discovered not long ago."
Therefore, he knew that no matter what he did, the final outcome would not be good.
He used to not care at all, but now he has something to worry about. He wants to live well and give her a peaceful and tranquil life.
Therefore, he resolutely chose to help Gu Linsen without His Majesty's order, because he knew that no matter whether he did it or not, their fear of him would not change, and their feelings for Jiang Qingyue would never subside.
Therefore, we might as well just do it; sooner or later, we'll have to come clean.
Therefore, he had always had people secretly keeping an eye on the situation there, looking for an opportunity.
"I dare not go any deeper. I only know the general outline. This matter should be closely related to Qin Jinghao."
"Don't worry, leave this to me!"
"There's one more thing." Seeing that Qin Xuanyu already understood, Jiang Qingyue didn't say anything more. "Where is my maternal grandfather? Do you know how he is?"
"Don't worry, he's fine. You should worry about yourself. Qin Jinghao won't let you off easily."
"That's a matter for later," Jiang Qingyue waved her hand dismissively.
As long as Grandpa is well, that's enough.
"Oh right, that doctor..." Jiang Qingyue thought of that doctor, and something just didn't feel right.
“He is a spy from the Kingdom of Xiti, as you have probably noticed.” This is also what Qin Xuanyu admires about Jiang Qingyue: she is intelligent and knows how to cooperate.
If Jiang Qingyue had objected back then, a quarrel would have broken out between the two sides, and they would have had to find a reasonable way to stay without arousing suspicion.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Qingyue saw through it immediately and cooperated perfectly, proving herself worthy of being the woman Qin Xuanyu had his eye on.
"You have a plan in mind, intending to turn the tables on me?"
Qin Xuanyu nodded, "If they can't plant anyone, they'll keep making moves. It's too troublesome to think about how to deal with and prevent it every day. It's better to just let them in directly, right under our noses. That would actually make us feel much more at ease."
"What do you need me to do?" Jiang Qingyue was now in the most contact with him, so she thought that perhaps she could help Qin Xuanyu.
Qin Xuanyu was delighted to hear this. "You don't need to do anything. Just treat my wounded soldiers. I've already arranged the rest."
Jiang Qingyue nodded. "Okay."
After finishing the important points, Jiang Qingyue ran out of things to say and didn't know what to say next. Qin Xuanyu agreed to give her time and didn't ask any more questions. As a result, the two of them returned to silence.
Just then, a commotion arose outside the tent, followed by the sound of horns.
"Something's happened! Stay here and don't wander off!" After saying that, Qin Xuanyu immediately rushed towards the direction from which the sound came.
"Be careful!"
