Chapter 278 Spoilers for the Future
After breakfast, Qiao Shinian lay in the bathtub, clearing his mind, looking up at the ceiling.
At this time, she felt that her nerves were not so tense, and the darkness, torches, and the gazes of hundreds of people would not appear in this era.
Everything now feels so unreal. She is back. She is back?
Wen Jiu was taken away, will something happen to him?
Are Ding Cuicui and the others safe?
Qiao Shinian couldn't help but retract her hands that were outside the bathtub into the water. She should have felt relaxed, but at this moment she felt an invisible urgency.
"Maybe it would be better to go out for a walk." Qiao Shinian said weakly.
Thinking of this, she stood up from her half-slumped state on the sofa, went to the cloakroom and casually took out a skirt to change into.
I met a visitor before I even went out.
The moment she opened the door, Qiao Shinian was stunned.
"I told you to come back today, did you forget?" The visitor said when he saw Qiao Shinian's daze.
"Brother Ruan, you brought me here to find her only because you insisted that I follow you, right?" Zhang Yinyin stepped out from behind Ruan Chengyu and was shocked when she saw Qiao Shinian: "Hey, are you crying?"
Qiao Shinian stepped aside and invited the two of them in. He put away his nostalgic look and his eyes regained their focus.
"Auntie Qin said that your eyes and ears were severely damaged, but I see that you are no different from before." Zhang Yinyin didn't hesitate to walk in and sit on the sofa in the living room.
Qiao Shinian was a little absent-minded, and her eyes looked at Ruan Chengyu from time to time. This man left the day after she was discharged from the hospital, saying that he had some things to deal with and would be back in four days at the latest.
She almost forgot about this person. In the first few days when she needed someone, it was Mo Feibai who took care of her. After she recovered a little and was able to take care of herself, which was just the past two days, Mo Feibai didn't stay with her all the time.
"I've told Aunt Qin and Brother Shu'an before that I'll be fully recovered in two days. They're making a big fuss." Qiao Shinian smiled and poured a glass of water for them, then sat down on the other side naturally: "Why did Sister Yinyin come to see me? Is there something important that she wants to talk to me about?"
"Ah~" Zhang Yinyin said with a smile: "Shu'an and Qin Ma are worried about you, and you are hiding from them. They are worried, and I happened to know that Senior Brother would come to see you, so I came to see you. Today, I see that they are a little too worried about you."
At first, Zhang Yinyin was confused and wanted to complain about why Qiao Shinian's tone of voice was so strange, but then she changed the subject and told the reason why she was here.
"They described your condition as being very serious. You were literally unable to take care of yourself. And Uncle Qiao and Auntie went abroad again. They wanted to take care of you, but you were hiding from them."
"I'm fine now." Qiao Shinian stood up and said, "Look, I'm just about to go out."
Zhang Yinyin looked at Ruan Chengyu suspiciously: "Brother Ruan, when did you get to know her? How come I didn't know you knew her?"
"We've known each other for a while." Ruan Chengyu was reluctant to say more, "Since you've already met her, you can go back and tell Auntie and the others that she's doing fine."
"Yes, that's right." Qiao Shinian nodded, "I'm really fine! Sorry to have made you worry, Sister Yinyin, you go back first, I have something to say to this person."
Qiao Shinian stood up and made a gesture to send the guests away: "I will invite everyone to have dinner together tonight, as my apology. Aunt Qin and Brother Shuan are worried, and Sister Yinyin, you rarely take a vacation but you waste your time looking for me."
Zhang Yinyin clapped her legs and stood up, rolling her eyes: "Well... OK, we'll see you tonight, don't wait us up."
Qiao Shinian nodded with a smile: "Go ahead, when have I ever broken my promise?"
Zhang Yinyin felt that her legs were a little stiff and she had trouble walking.
The person in front of him was clearly Qiao Shinian, but he felt so weird, as if he was possessed by a ghost.
Every move and every word was unfamiliar. Those eyes no longer had the liveliness and innocence they had when we first met. They seemed to be filled with a lot of bad things.
After everyone left, Qiao Shinian stood up and sat next to Ruan Chengyu, looking at his face carefully.
Ruan Chengyu didn't make any move and just let her watch.
He knew that this face of his had a great impact on Qiao Shinian, a face that was almost exactly the same as Mu Qingchen's.
Before she knew it, Qiao Shinian's face was already in tears, and she reached out her trembling hands to touch his face.
The eyebrows and eyes are exactly the same as his.
"Ha, that's great." Qiao Shinian took back his hand and smiled at Ruan Chengyu, "It's great that you live in a prosperous era."
"Yes! I am proud to live in this country today." Ruan Chengyu took out a few tissues and handed them to her, "But I am not him."
"I know." Qiao Shinian nodded, and after a while he breathed a sigh of relief, "He is dead. Maybe you are his reincarnation in another form, but you are you. The moment he died, there was no Mu Qingchen in the world.
Even if you inherited all his memories, even if you said to me lovingly, 'I came to your world to find you,' you would not be him."
"It's good that you can tell the difference. This way, you can avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble." Ruan Chengyu stood up and looked at Qiao Shinian, without any emotion in his eyes: "I promised your parents that I would take care of you."
"Thank you, but I don't need you anymore. I don't need anyone to take care of me. The time when I couldn't take care of myself is over." Qiao Shinian also stood up, "I want to walk around this world alone."
"Perhaps, I can accompany you and talk to you. Perhaps, you need someone who can give you some ideas."
Qiao Shinian wanted to shake her head and refuse, but when the words came to her lips, she changed her mind: "Okay! It happens that I need you for something."
Among the people Mu Qingchen left for her, there were actually quite a few smart ones, such as He Huan, who was sent to the capital by her.
He Huan believes that Mu Qingchen loves her, so she should treat Mu Qingchen with the same attitude. Even if Mu Qingchen dies, she should remain loyal to him.
The thoughts that came with this often caused Hehuan's behavior in many aspects to go against her wishes, which made her feel a little troubled.
When facing this calm face, Qiao Shinian almost immediately thought of telling a lie to Hehuan, an unsolvable lie.
Otherwise, if this continues, Hehuan will not be able to stay.
And as for Mo Yang, she knew that Mo Yang was just following Mu Qingchen's last wishes.
So when the diplomatic envoys come to Beijing this time, Mo Lin will not only look for Yingzhu.
After being humiliated by Yingzhu, he should look for someone else. She was not sure what the middle-aged man's final choice would be.
After all, Zhou State is their home, and they just obey Yu Muqingchen's orders.
If she brings these photos back and deceives them that Mu Qingchen has been taken to the God Realm by her to live a life without worldly worries, those who have ulterior motives will probably be more cautious.
This set of smooth ideas emerged from Qiao Shinian's mind during these few conversations.
When he got off the elevator and headed downstairs to the lobby, Qiao Shinian couldn't help but laugh at himself out loud.
"You have integrated into that world very well." Ruan Chengyu said.
Qiao Shinian neither nodded nor shook her head. After the elevator door opened, she asked, "Did you drive here?"
"Ah."
"What a coincidence! I want to ride a bike."
"Then go sweep a bike, but your skirt?"
"It's okay, you ride and I'll sit. Let's go to the amusement park like we're shooting a youth campus movie." Qiao Shinian took out his mobile phone and typed slowly on the navigation interface.
"Thirty-two kilometers, you can ride that distance, right?" Qiao Shinian looked up and asked.
Ruan Chengyu looked down at his clothes today. Fortunately, they were casual clothes. "Let's go."
"Okay." The two of them searched for a while after leaving the hotel and found a shared bicycle, but it couldn't carry passengers, so they had to use the navigation to go to the nearest bicycle shop and picked out a bicycle.
Qiao Shinian sat in the back seat wearing a sun hat and pulled Ruan Chengyu's clothes on his back: "Can you still see me?"
"I haven't had that kind of dream since I found you," said Ruan Chengyu.
Qiao Shinian nodded and swiped the phone interface with his hand. The editor took a long time to send out a reward question.
"Do you know Hua Sijin?" Holding Ruan Chengyu's sleeve with one hand, holding the mobile phone with the other, and looking up at the traffic, Qiao Shinian had a very mysterious feeling.
She is not sure where she belongs and has lived in this world for longer.
However, she doesn't seem to age in that world, so perhaps she will live there longer than this, or even live forever.
"Princess Fanhua is Hua Sijin. Her father, Hua Wushuang, the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, is on the side of the Crown Prince. She was originally the Crown Princess, and if nothing unexpected happens, she will be the future mother of a country. Naturally, she is unwilling to marry someone like Wen Jiu who has neither a maternal family nor power.
After you revealed your identity, she and her father went to the Prince's Mansion overnight.
Hua Wushuang is not a die-hard loyal person who will not give up unless the ruler wants him to. Later, Wen Jiu accidentally learned that Hua Sijin once said something outrageous to you..."
At this point, Ruan Chengyu continued to ride slowly, with a hint of smile in his voice: "Do you want to hear the spoiler? If not, I won't tell you."
Qiao Shinian was silent for a long time, his face solemn: "How do you know what's behind?"
"I probably didn't tell you that your timeline is different from mine. As of the day I met you, I had already experienced you returning to that world after a few years. I saw you for the last time in that world, and from then on, I ended my time travel."
"Go ahead, I want to hear it." Qiao Shinian patted his back, but only after that did he realize something was wrong, both his action and his tone.
This is not the place where no one should be ordered around by her.
"Wen Jiu... He became very bloodthirsty after you left, a completely different person. Or you could say he released his repressed emotions, and the Mingjian Bureau was feared by all the civil and military officials.
In the first year of the Ice Age, Wen Jiu stored grain in Xingzhou according to the letter you wrote to him, and Xingzhou's grain was no longer sold outside.
In the second part of the Ice Age, the food in Xingzhou was enough for the people of Xingzhou to eat for ten years. Wen Jiu led his troops to attack Yudan, and Yudan soon fell... By the way, he was framed before he left, and Yudan spent a lot of money to redeem him. Later, the attack on Yudan was also because the queen could not bear the humiliation. She endured the humiliation for two years and finally left a suicide note and committed suicide.
In the third year of the Ice Age, a large number of people froze to death. The court began to build a statue of the goddess. Most of the officials in the court were killed. The first female official was born. She was your student. King Gu was killed by Wen Jiu, and the prince was weak.
In the fourth year of the Ice Age, the Blue Wolf Clan encountered a returning foreign enemy. They were a group of man-eating fellows, and Wen Jiu led his troops to rescue and drive them out.
In the fifth year, you went back. Chu Wen attacked Chu Yu. Although he did not destroy the country, he won a great victory. The remaining countries formed an alliance to fight against Chu Wen. Wen Jiu became notorious for his evil deeds. Hua Wushuang was forced to die in exchange for Hua Sijin's safety. The last thing I saw was your back as you and Wen Jiu played in the water. "
"Is that so?" Qiao Shinian clenched his hands unconsciously.
Is this the decision she finally made?
Ruan Chengyu patted Qiao Shinian's hand: "Don't pinch my flesh."
"I'm sorry." Qiao Shinian retracted his hand.
Listening to Ruan Chengyu's words, Qiao Shinian couldn't help but look up, but tears still flowed down.
Does she have any choice in her destiny?
