Chapter 202
"Please don't leave me again, okay?"
Liu Qishan gazed at her tenderly with his autumn eyes, which held endless longing and sorrow. Nalan Jingwen could not bring herself to say no to such eyes.
She lowered her head, her forehead touching his, their breaths mingling.
She said, "Okay."
"Even if I have to go to hell, I will take you with me."
Liu Qishan laughed, gently lifting his chin and pressing his soft lips to Nalan Jingwen's lips.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Nalan Jingwen hugged him even tighter, gently kneading the soft flesh of his waist. Liu Qishan let out a soft hum, a hint of lust flashing in the corner of his eyes.
"Qishan, you should tell me, how exactly did you go blind?"
Liu Qishan covered her hand that was messing around his waist, rubbed his cheek against hers, and spoke in a low, gentle voice.
"It's all in the past, there's no need to bring it up again."
"What if I say I want to know?"
“If you don’t tell me, I’ll go ask that woman.”
As she spoke, she made a move to get up and go find Changsheng, but as expected, she was stopped by Liu Qishan.
"No, I'll tell you."
Nalan Jingwen then sat back on the bed and embraced him again.
Liu Qishan lowered his head slightly, hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Back then, it was Changsheng who rescued me from that tomb of the dead. I made a deal with Changsheng. I worked for her, and she taught me medicine."
Nalan Jingwen paused slightly as he touched Nalan Jingwen's hair, and asked, "Why do you want to study medicine?"
Liu Qishan looked up at her and gave her a faint smile, a very gentle smile, as if he had let go of his worries.
"Because I don't want you to suffer from illness anymore."
He wondered countless times if, if his medical skills were superior, she would not have left his side.
Nalan Jingwen fell silent, speechless for a moment.
"Chang Sheng is amazing. I have never met anyone with better medical skills than her. I don't know how much time has passed since she saved me. I only know that I must live on and find your reincarnation to stay by your side. Chang Sheng is undoubtedly a suitable candidate."
"So Changsheng is not a bad person. She has unparalleled medical skills and is very capable. There is nothing in the world that she cannot do."
As Nalan Jing listened, she recalled everything that had happened since she met Changsheng. Apart from being a bit sarcastic, Changsheng was indeed unlike an ordinary person. Her wealth alone was enough to make her seem like an ordinary person.
Hearing Liu Qishan say this, she realized with a start that Changsheng was indeed too mysterious and unfathomable. It seemed that every step she took was under her control and there was no way to escape.
"And my eyes were also used as a bargaining chip."
Nalan Jingwen frowned slightly. Liu Qishan knew she was puzzled and slowly said, "Chang Sheng is suspicious and has a very sharp mind. She doesn't trust anyone, so she doesn't trust me. That's why she took my eyes as a threat."
Liu Qishan smiled faintly and said, "Actually, I have long been used to being blind. Being blind allows me to calm my mind and study medicine."
“When Changsheng told me to get close to you, I had a premonition that the wise king of Fengtian, Nalan Jingwen, was my Awen. I did not mistake him, and I am glad that I was able to save you.”
"But I made a promise with Changsheng back then, so..."
"So that's why I faked my death and disappeared, falling into Changsheng's hands and being controlled by her?"
Nalan Jingwen continued his words.
Liu Qishan nodded silently, his eyelashes drooping, his expression one of guilt.
Nalan Jingwen showed no expression. Changsheng must know something to use Liu Qishan as a bargaining chip, and she was certain that she would fall in love with Liu Qishan again. For Liu Qishan's sake, she would definitely agree to all of her demands. Everything was a deception from the very beginning.
Changsheng started planning so early, even when she was just a person with a bad reputation, but what was her purpose?
Nalan Jing sensed danger. Such a cunning and resourceful person, who seemed to have everything under her control, why had she never heard of her?
What was her purpose in planning all this?
At present, nothing can be seen, but it is precisely because of this that Nalan Jingwen felt danger.
What does she want?
Liu Qishan shook his head. "I don't know."
Nalan Jingwen looked solemn and pondered.
Since Liu Qishan has told her all this, Changsheng must have guessed that he's waiting for her to come to him on her own initiative. Instead of guessing, it's better to ask him directly tomorrow.
She looked down at the person in her arms, and suddenly realized something, asking, "So you are now immortal?"
Liu Qishan was taken aback, then nodded hesitantly and said, "No, but it's just that my lifespan is longer than that of an ordinary person."
How long have you been asleep?
"When I woke up, I looked through ancient books and found some fragments of information. I roughly guessed that it was about two hundred years ago..."
Nalan Jingwen pursed his lips, a complex expression flashing in his eyes.
Liu Qishan accidentally achieved immortality, something countless people desired, but years later, she was already old and gray, while Liu Qishan remained the same...
My hair will turn white, but your youth will last forever.
How cruel.
Liu Qishan clearly noticed her concerns and held her hand tightly, interlocking their fingers.
“Ah Wen just said that even if he goes to hell, he will take me with him.”
“If Nalan Jingwen dies, Liu Qishan will not live on alone.”
Nalan Jingwen looked at him, remaining silent.
Privately, she hoped that after she passed away, they could be buried together in the same coffin, dying alongside her, but...
She was reluctant to part with it.
She hoped he could forget her, live a good life, and start a new one.
Seeing that she remained silent, Liu Qishan visibly panicked, gripping her hand tightly, his voice frantic and even choked with sobs.
"Has Ah Wen changed his mind?"
Seeing his eyes redden and well up with tears, Nalan Jing quickly pulled him into his arms.
"I promise you."
"No matter what, I will never abandon you again, okay?"
……
It is said that if a person has a wish, Heaven will surely grant it.
Liu Qishan had thought of this poem countless times, remembering her softly reciting it in his ear with a smile, and how tender her gaze was that day; he had fallen for her in just one glance.
Perhaps it was the dazzling beauty of spring flowers that made her ask him if he had any wishes, and he said no.
But later, when he thought of the poem again, all he wanted was to see her again.
He prayed fervently countless times, kneeling for long periods in the vast temple, begging the gods and Buddhas to hear him. He spared no effort in seeking immortality to find her reincarnation. He even thought that just one glance, just one glance would be enough, just to see her one more time and fulfill his wish in this life.
Even if there is no more reincarnation, even if I fall into the Avici Hell and suffer eternal karmic fire, I will have no regrets.
He didn't know if Heaven had truly heard his prayers, or if his efforts had truly paid off, and he had actually obtained immortality.
He even saw the person he had been longing for again.
His Awen said, "People say that if people have wishes, their wishes will surely be fulfilled by Heaven."
His Awen wouldn't lie to him.
