Nāgata: Infernal Night, Qinghan and I are True Love

Chapter 102 Neither Active Nor Reject

For a moment, time seemed to stand still.

Yue Shan's surprised expression turned serious, and he seemed somewhat incredulous.

Xu Tianyi opened his mouth wide and turned to look at Yue Shan.

When Wei Qing saw Yue Shan appear, his expression became strange and awkward.

Feeling a bit guilty yet also excited, I instinctively poked the chopsticks inside.

"Ah...cough cough, what are you doing? You poked something in my throat!"

Xu Tianyi's exclamation broke the silence in the room.

Wei Qing snorted coldly: "General Yue isn't in the military camp, what is he doing here? Could it be that you see the eleven counties in the Northwest are stable and want to come and massacre the city?"

Yue Shan was extremely puzzled: "Qingmei, he is the Crown Prince's consort. Don't you hate rebels and traitors the most? Why would you..."

He couldn't understand why Wei Qing, a close friend of the Prince of Qi, would associate with Xu Tianyi, the Crown Prince's son-in-law, and why they even...

"Shut up! Where I am is none of your business!"

Wei Qing got up and went straight into the house. Yue Shan was about to step forward when Xu Tianyi stopped him.

"General Yue, trespassing on someone else's residence seems to be against the rules."

Yue Shan knew that what he was doing was impolite, but how could he remain indifferent in the face of this situation?

"Master Xu, please explain what I just witnessed. Qingmei and I are engaged!"

Xu Tianyi said somewhat helplessly, "Yes, yes, let's just say that. Wei Qing is the Crown Prince's biological daughter, which means she is my sister-in-law."

Yue Shan stared in disbelief, dumbfounded.

"This...how is this possible? Isn't Qingmei the daughter of Wei Changqing, the Commander of the Golden Guard?"

Xu Tianyi sighed, pulled him down to sit, and began to explain.

"During the coup at the Eastern Palace, Wei Changqing was responsible for sending the little princess away."

However, the King of Qi discovered this, so he designated Wei Qing as Wei Changqing's daughter, and then murdered the entire clan of the Crown Prince Wei Changqing to silence them.

Thus, Wei Qing became the adopted daughter of the King of Qi.

Yue Shan looked surprised, though he still seemed somewhat skeptical.

Suddenly, he felt a chill beside him and turned to see Gu Qinghan conjuring an ice bead in his hand.

"Wei Qing can also learn the Frost True Qi. She also has the Frost Bloodline."

The power of bloodline is enough to prove everything.

Yue Shan fell silent.

He believed it. Wei Qing must have tried it, otherwise she wouldn't have accepted her identity so easily.

But soon, Yue Shan frowned.

"Master Xu, even if Qingmei is your sister-in-law, isn't it a bit too intimate for her to feed you?"

He looked skeptical, but felt a pang of jealousy inside.

Xu Tianyi chuckled: "I won't interfere much with the relationship between Qing'er and you, but people's hearts are easily changed. Even after three days apart, one should look at them with new eyes, let alone two or three years?"

Can thirteen-year-old Wei Qing be the same as sixteen-year-old Wei Qing?

She's grown up and has her own ideas now.

As for the engagement, it's just talk. If she really still likes you, I won't interfere.

If she has other ideas, she hopes you will respect them.

After saying this, Xu Tianyi stood up.

"Let's go in and let them talk to each other."

Yue Shan stood silently, watching Xu Tianyi enter, unsure of what to say.

Xu Tianyi then led the two women into the house.

On the second floor, Wei Qing sat at the table, her mind in turmoil.

Footsteps came from the stairwell, and Xu Tianyi and the other two entered.

What are you thinking?

Xu Tianyi asked silently.

Wei Qing shook her head and remained silent.

"You have to face it eventually. If you still like him, then you should tell him. If you don't like him, then don't waste his time."

Xu Tianyi thought so. He already had Qinghan Hongye, and as for Wei Qing, he felt more admiration.

But it's impossible to say I completely dislike him; after all, Wei Qing is quite charming.

I'm not exactly a third party, since I didn't actively break them up.

Wei Qing suddenly turned around: "And what about you! What do you mean by this?"

Xu Tianyi scratched his head: "Me?"

"Yes! Haven't you felt my affection these days?"

Faced with this question, Xu Tianyi remained silent for a moment and then smiled.

"I like you a lot too. Your sister and I both hope that our family can be together in the future."

Wei Qing chuckled: "I understand..."

She turned and walked past the three people downstairs.

Xu Tianyi shrugged, helpless.

Gu Qinghan rolled her eyes at him: "What exactly do you mean?"

"No, you're questioning me too?"

"What do you think? If you really like her, you should be more direct. Your sister also has feelings for you. By saying this, aren't you just pushing her towards Yue Shan?"

Xu Tianyi sighed: "It's really complicated. I'm not going to interfere anymore. Let her choose for herself."

I'm going to be a player, a total scumbag—I won't initiate contact, I won't refuse anyone, and I won't take responsibility.

"Snapped!"

"You're the Sea King, aren't you? You deserve a beating!"

"Hey... calm down, Yingying, save me..."

Ji Yingying: "..."

. . .

Yue Shan sat in the courtyard, waiting.

He was filled with sorrow.

He didn't know whether his insistence on going to Yunzhou back then was the right or wrong thing to do.

Soon, familiar yet unfamiliar footsteps echoed from inside the room.

Wei Qing slowly stepped out and immediately sat down opposite him, but did not look at him.

Yue Shan felt a bitter taste in his mouth and couldn't help but sigh, "Qingmei, after so many years, have we become so estranged?"

Wei Qing also reminisced about the good old days.

I grew up in the palace, had no friends, and was all alone.

The other princes and princesses looked down on her, their adopted daughter, and the Prince of Qi's concern for her only made his children resentful.

Until he met Yue Shan, who had come to pay his respects to King Qi.

He had no prejudice against me, and the two had a very pleasant conversation.

A mature, handsome, and ambitious genius naturally captured her heart.

When she was thirteen, she joined the Imperial Guard in order to be worthy of him, but he went to Yunzhou for training.

He worked alone at the Golden Guard, struggling to handle each case, witnessing the coldness and warmth of human relationships, and experiencing countless inner struggles.

I thought that seeing him again would be such a happy thing, but now he is not the same as I imagined.

(What should Wei Qing do?)
