Chapter Six: The First Meeting

  In the dense forest, a pair of eyes flashed by, taking in everything. When the black-clad man's long sword pierced Qingyun's shoulder, those dangerous eyes revealed a fierce killing intent, but only for an instant before retracting, because his little woman hadn't had enough fun yet, and he couldn't ruin her mood. Moreover, he was curious to see how she would react. Indeed, she was the kind of woman he had taken a liking to, not disappointing him in the least - even her threatening gestures were adorable.

  Can't help but say, this man is a freak, and only he would think that such a cruel method is lovely. However, he's very curious about how she came up with such a punishment, it seems like next time when interrogating or dealing with traitors, he can try it out.

  Upon seeing Yun Qing's injured shoulder, a cold and icy glint flashed in his eyes, revealing a murderous aura. Good, you dare to hurt the woman he has taken a liking to?

  Yun Qing stood there, motionless, and didn't even lift the curtain or look at the little guy. She was waiting, waiting for the person who had been hiding in the shadows to appear. She had always felt a gaze fixed on her, but she couldn't catch it because there was no killing intent, so she put it aside for now. Now that the assassin had been dealt with, the show should be over, yet he still didn't plan to reveal himself?

  Yun Qing stood there quietly.

  She saw through him, and the corner of Yun Qiancheng's mouth curved upwards. He knew he couldn't deceive her, truly not to be underestimated. The white-robed figure floated down from the treetops, like a banished immortal landing in front of Yun Qing.

  The cloud clears as he looks up, the man is elegant and refined like a lotus flower, floating and ethereal like an immortal. His pale skin is as smooth and icy as the snow lotus of the heavenly mountains, his eyebrows are painted with ink, his lips are perfectly shaped, his eyes are like cold stars, shining with a thousand kinds of crystal light. He wears a white robe like snow, made of the finest white jade silk, his hair is tied up with a white jade pin, the other half falling on his shoulder. His face is as beautiful as a painting, so beautiful that it's not human-like, with an otherworldly beauty. At this moment, he is gazing at her with a pair of affectionate eyes, the tenderness inside making one fall into them unintentionally, his perfect lips are smiling with a dazzling smile.

  Although she had seen countless handsome men in her past life, for a moment, she was also bewildered by his good looks and lost focus.

  "Haha." The man's magnetic laughter came, Yun Qing frowned and wrinkled her brow, a red cloud flew up on her face, which was not very clear in the dark night, secretly scolding herself for becoming infatuated since coming here.

  Yun Qian Chen didn't miss Yun Qing's small actions, the doting in his eyes was even more, the pleasant laughter was even more joyful, showing that his master's mood was very good.

  "Is it funny?" Yun Qing said with a scowl, and gave her a big white eye.

  "Your performance just now was great, didn't disappoint me at all." Yun Qian Chen blinked her eyes and replied seriously.

  What? Is her behavior good or bad related to him?

  "Thanks, just now." Although she was puzzled by his sudden appearance, Yun Qing knew that if he hadn't intervened earlier, it would have been difficult for her to subdue the person. She thanked him straightforwardly without hesitation.

  "Don't be so polite to me."

  He raised his hand and gently tucked a strand of hair behind Cloud's ear, the intimate gesture coming so naturally to him that it seemed as though it was meant to be.

  Yun Qing's face stiffened, and just now she hadn't dodged, this man's kung fu had actually reached such a high level. Seeing Yun Qing's defensive and distant expression, Yun Qian Chen's eyebrows furrowed slightly, he didn't like it, but he would let her get used to him. Just as Yun Qing was about to speak, "Woman, don't refuse," Yun Qian Chen gently interrupted her words.

  The first time he saw her, he had a familiar feeling. After returning, he immediately sent someone to investigate and finally found out that the person from ten months ago was her. At that time, he was drugged by someone, and his dark guard brought him a woman. In the darkness, he didn't see her face clearly, only remembering that she seemed to be wearing red clothes that night.

  One night, her beauty drove him crazy, and he couldn't help but have her multiple times until she couldn't take it anymore and fainted. He also fell asleep due to exhaustion. When he woke up, the dark guard had already sent her away, leaving only the red plum blossoms on the brocade quilt, revealing the whirlwind spring light of last night.

  After returning to Yun Xiao Palace, he didn't mention this matter again. Unexpectedly, upon his return, he saw her once more in that situation - her calmness, wisdom, loveliness, coldness, and ruthless decisiveness all captivated him, making it impossible for him to look away. He recalled that she was a virgin at the time, and rumors had it that Prince Huo didn't favor her and refused to acknowledge the child. Based on timing, he deduced that the child should be his.

  Cloud Qing saw Cloud Qian Chen staring at her, his eyes flashing with an unclear meaning, and she instinctively felt that he was a dangerous person, so she should keep her distance from him. Was she very familiar with him? However, since he said so, then she... Her eyes rolled over once, and the bright eyes flashed with a sly light that disappeared in an instant.

  "If you deal with those few rats, I'll consider it as payment for watching the show. Slow down, don't see me off." Turning around, one corner of her skirt fluttered up with a brilliant arc, she had to tend to her wound and also receive the curtain call, no time to waste on him. Damn, it really hurts.

  Yun Qiancheng listened to Yun Qing's words, a hint of helplessness flashed in her eyes. She really was... But seeing the wound on Yun Qing's shoulder still bleeding, she immediately rose up with anger again. Was this woman dissatisfied with the amount of blood? She swept Yun Qing off her feet and flew towards the thatched cottage, waving her hand behind her back, and the door automatically closed.

  A spark of anger rose in Yun Qing's eyes, this man actually dared to hug her without her consent, did he think she was weak and easy to bully? Her voice also turned cold, "Put me down."

  Yun Qiancheng furrowed his brow and didn't say a word, placing Yun Qing on the bed. He stretched out his hand and roughly pulled down Yun Qing's clothes. Although it was a rough movement, Yun Qiancheng did it with elegance and refinement. Looking at the deep wound on Yun Qing's shoulder that exposed bone, Yun Qiancheng's eyes dimmed slightly. "Don't let yourself get hurt again in the future."

  This man's thoughts are really jumping quickly. Apply the medicine, bandage it. The whole action is as smooth as floating clouds and flowing water, with a gentle tenderness.

  Yun Qing's mouth twitched slightly. Did this man use such a large dose of medicine? Her clothes... In silent mourning...

  Yun Qiancheng gazed at Yun Qing's back, her fair skin as smooth as condensed milk, radiating a jade-like glow under the lamplight. Yun Qiancheng's eyes darkened, becoming profound and unfathomable. The memories of that night swirled before his eyes like a huge stone cast into a lake, stirring up endless ripples.

  It's been quiet for half a day, Yun Qing turned around and saw that Yun Qian Chen's face was strange, stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his eyes, "Soul returned."

  The cold voice brought back Yun Qiancheng's thoughts, and he found himself staring at the pink bellyband on Yun Qing's chest, where a blue lotus was embroidered, slowly blooming as if he could smell its elegant and subtle fragrance. Due to having just given birth, her full and plump chest was even more curvaceous. Yun Qiancheng struggled to move his gaze away, took off the outer cloak from his body, and draped it over Yun Qing's shoulders.

  In the 21st century of Yun Qing's past life, she had seen many bikini-clad beauties on the beach, so in Yun Qiancheng's eyes, this semi-nude and seductive scene was nothing out of the ordinary.

  Yun Qian Chen's height is one meter eighty-five, his clothes are too long on Yun Qing's body, Yun Qing takes the ice silk waistband and ties it around her waist, barely putting it on.

  Looking at Yun Qian Chen, who was silent as a fairy-like man appeared in the middle of the night, she wouldn't believe him no matter what if he said he had no ulterior motives. A person like this, who seemed extraordinary at first glance, must have an unusual identity, and having an unusual identity meant trouble. Although he had just helped her, she still had some reservations about him.

  Yun Qiancheng looked at the guard in Yun Qing's eyes, and couldn't help but smile wryly. The corners of Yun Qiancheng's mouth curved into a gentle smile, and his star-like eyes were filled with indulgence that he couldn't hide, making it seem to outsiders like they were deeply gazing into each other's eyes.

  "Ah!", a cry of surprise, pierced through the night's silence, and also broke the eerie atmosphere inside the house.

  It's a screen! Yun Qingxuan rushed out of the door, only to see the screen hugging the little guy and staring fiercely at the blue-clothed man in front, with his mouth open but unable to speak.

  The curtain saw that the young lady had been quiet for a long time, so she carried the little young master to walk towards the thatched cottage. From afar, she saw that there was a light on in the thatched cottage, and her heart worried about the safety of the young lady. She quietly walked over to check, but unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived at the front of the house, she saw a man in green clothes suddenly appear from nowhere. Just as she opened her mouth to call out, she was sealed by the man in green clothes and could only stare with wide eyes at the man in front of her.

  The man in blue clothes looked helplessly at the little girl, his master was inside cultivating feelings with the future palace mistress, how could he let someone disturb and ruin his master's good deed? He had never seen his master take a liking to any woman before.

  Yun Qing was just about to make a move when he was pulled back by a slender white hand from behind, with a thin callus on the palm left from years of martial arts practice. Turning his head around, he saw Yun Qiancheng's warm and gentle smile, with a glimmer of crystal light in his eyes.

  It took only an instant for Yun Qing to understand, and she glanced at the man in green: "Your person?"

  Xuan Feng quietly stood behind Yun Qian Chen, suddenly feeling a chill run down his spine, as if he had been doused with a bucket of cold water on a winter's day. He looked up to see Yun Qing's eyes smiling yet not smiling, and in his heart, a bad premonition suddenly rose. Oh no, it was indeed the Palace Master's wife, just like the Palace Master himself, her gaze alone was enough to make people afraid.

  Yun Qianchen smiled faintly and didn't speak, taking over the little guy and placing it in Yun Qing's hands. "Can you name him?"

  "Proudly standing in the world, laughing at the red dust of humanity. Proud of the dust, cloud proud of the dust." A resolute determination shot out from her clear and bright eyes. Murong Yunqing, I will protect our son, not letting anyone harm him.

  Looking down at the red dust, a gleam of unclear meaning flashed in Yun Qian's eyes. He looked deeply at Yun Qing and said, "Take good care of the child, no one will come tonight, rest early." He brushed away a mischievous strand of hair from Yun Qing's face. "I'll leave Xuan Feng here, you can be at ease." As he turned to leave, he lightly swung his sleeve, and the curtain was already open.

  White clothes fluttering, extraordinary and out of the ordinary, although only wearing a white undergarment, it can't hide that immortal temperament.

  "Remember, I am Yun Qian Chen." A faint voice drifted in with the wind.

  Watching Yun Qiancheng's departing back, Yun Qing fell into deep thought. This man was sometimes overbearing and sometimes gentle, appearing out of nowhere and leaving in a hurry, what did he come for?

  Don't waste brain cells if you can't figure it out, things will be clear someday.

  "I don't like being watched, don't appear in front of me." She turned around and went into the house with her curtain, not looking at Xuanfeng again. Since there was a free bodyguard, she didn't need to refuse.

  The curtain suddenly appeared from the clouds, and she was stunned. It wasn't until a white jade porcelain bottle appeared in her hand that she came back to her senses. She saw that Yun Qing hadn't said anything, so she didn't say anything either. She glared fiercely at Xuan Feng and followed Yun Qing into the house.

  Xuan Feng directly ignored the gaze of the curtain, his hands clasped together, "Yes, miss." His figure flashed and he disappeared from the spot.

  Night, return to calmness.
