Chapter 1303: Chapter 1125: Xiao’ai, Dabao, Xiaobei

He had already gone to several Peach Blossom Villages, but each time he returned disappointed. Later, he asked a passerby, "Does this Peach Blossom Village have any peach blossoms?"

"No," the passerby said, "I went there a few days ago and really didn’t see any peach blossoms."

Ye Ge’s heart sank. This time, he feared it was another wasted trip.

He planned to leave Fengjing County and continue southward. If he kept going this way, he feared he would reach the Coastal area, and once there, there would likely be even fewer peach blossoms.

That night, he drank quite a bit of alcohol at the inn and ordered several fish dishes to accompany his drinks. However, when it came time to settle the bill, he found that the fish didn’t cost much. He thought the inn’s attendant had made a mistake in the bill, but the attendant said, "The rarity makes things precious; almost every household here has a fish pond, so fish isn’t worth much."

"Every household has a fish pond? Then does Fengjing County produce a lot of lychees?" Ye Ge asked again.

"Lychees are available, but they are quite difficult to maintain, so not many people grow them," the attendant added.

"What about this Peach Blossom Village? Did it ever have peach blossoms before?"

"Peach Blossom Village? Indeed, there used to be many peach blossoms, but many were cut down several years ago. At that time, people said growing longan was profitable, but longan trees also aren’t easy to grow. So now, there aren’t many longan trees or peach blossom trees left. Many people from other places used to come here to see the peach blossoms, but in the last few years..."

Ye Ge couldn’t listen anymore; he just took his carrier pigeon and baggage and headed to Peach Blossom Village.

...

Every time he thought about the past, Ye Ge would touch Nan Feng’s face, "If I hadn’t listened to a few more words from the inn’s attendant, I might never have found you."

Nan Feng would also hug Ye Ge tightly, "You have no idea, when you appeared in front of my humble house while I was holding Dabao, how thrilled I was. I thought I would have to depend solely on Abao for the rest of my life, but then you came. Suddenly, it was as if I had seen hope, and in that moment, my whole life brightened, I can’t be without you."

"Have you ever regretted just leaving me like that?" Ye Ge asked gently.

"Yes, I even met a magician who said he could take me back to my previous world, but I didn’t listen to him. I felt that one day we would meet again."

"Don’t listen to those charlatans," Ye Ge hugged Nan Feng tightly, as if he might lose her if he continued.

Later, Nan Feng thought of Xia Dabao and Tian Xiaobei and couldn’t help asking, "You gave up wealth and honors to come find me, so why did you support Xiaobei in going to Capital City for his matter?"

"It’s different," Ye Ge thought for a while before responding, "Xiaobei isn’t like me. I’ve been through battles and lived in the royal court before I realized what kind of life I want to lead, but Xiaobei hasn’t experienced these. We aren’t sure what life he truly desires. If one day he regrets his choice, he will live in constant remorse. Such remorse can turn into a powerful resentment that may ruin his days, so I want him to experience more to truly know what kind of life he wants."

"You’re right, but I’m afraid Dabao might be hurt for a while. She liked a boy for the first time and faced his parents’ rejection. She must be feeling very down," said Nan Feng.
