Chapter 1100 - 1100 1086 Brother-in-law

Chapter 1100: Chapter 1086: Brother-in-law Chapter 1100: Chapter 1086: Brother-in-law “It seems he really likes my sister,” Guo Yuqing frowned.

“What’s wrong, you don’t like that Yun’er has found someone she likes?” Luo Rui retorted.

How could she not hope that her own sister would find someone to love again?

“I think, as long as the boy is persistent, and with the help of your stepmom, he will definitely win Yun’er’s heart,” Luo Rui said confidently.

Unable to hold back anymore, Guo Yuqing said, “Ye Chen is not dead.”

Luo Rui widened her eyes and exclaimed, “What, Ye Chen is not dead?”

Guo Yuqing recounted the whole experience and added, “You mustn’t tell Yun’er.”

Luo Rui was stunned and asked, “Are you saying, Ye Chen lied to her, saying he was dead?”

Guo Yuqing explained, “Ye Chen almost killed Yun’er, and we still can’t ensure that he can really use the power of the Sacred Spirit Stone to destroy the ring. If it doesn’t work, he will still become possessed.”

“How could this be.”

Guo Yuqing explained further, “If my sister finds out he is alive, she will definitely try to follow him again.”

“So, he doesn’t want your sister to be in danger.”

“Probably so, but you must not tell Yun’er. If she finds out, without a second word, she would go to the East Sea looking for him,” Guo Yuqing said.

Luo Rui sat down and murmured, “I have heard that there is some trouble in the Thirty-Six Islands, and it doesn’t sound too good.”

“Yes, I also don’t know Ye Chen’s current situation, but I always feel guilty,” Guo Yuqing admitted.

Luo Rui fully understood now, no wonder she seemed so preoccupied.

Guo Yuqing continued, “Don’t think Ye Chen is completely fine. The poison in his body hasn’t been completely removed, and it probably never will be. It could flare up at any time.”

“Stop, I know you are thinking about Yun’er’s safety,” Luo Rui reassured her.

“Ah, I also lack information about Ye Chen’s condition; anyway, I don’t know what to do,” Guo Yuqing sighed.

Luo Rui understood Guo Yuqing’s intentions and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t tell Yun’er.”

“Anyway, just stay out of their affairs,” Guo Yuqing said, not knowing what else to say.

“Hmm, I really thought Ye Chen was dead,” Luo Rui reflected.

“Ah well, things have come to this, let’s just keep it a secret,” Guo Yuqing suggested.

“Are you worried that Yun’er will blame you later on?”

“It’s not that; I am more concerned about my sister’s safety. Last time, if we hadn’t found the Sky Mountain Snow Lotus, there would have been no saving my sister. You have no idea how scared I was,” Guo Yuqing said, her voice tinged with emotion.

“What exactly did Divine Doctor Zhu say?”

“He said to destroy the ring, otherwise, it will act up within half a year, and not even an Eternal Immortal could save him then,” she explained.

“So serious? Then it’s better not to tell Yun’er,” Luo Rui finally understood why Guo Yuqing had always seemed so gloomy and preoccupied.

Guo Yuqing sighed, “I just don’t know what is best to do now.”

“You’re unsure whether Ye Chen will get better or not.”

“Let’s not talk about it anymore. Since this is what Ye Chen wants, let’s follow his wishes,” Guo Yuqing said, taking a sip of tea.

Luo Rui suddenly asked, “Qing’er, do you know that Su Zhanze has become the Sect Leader of Immortal City?”

Qing’er showed no surprise and replied, “Yes, I know.”

“I heard he also brought back the Dragon Slayer Sword.”

“Ye Chen’s analysis was right after all; the Dragon Slayer Sword really was in his hands,” Qing’er confirmed.

“What, you knew about this?”

Guo Yuqing nodded, “It was Ye Chen who figured it out.”

Luo Rui then asked, “I heard he disfigured half of his face.”

Guo Yuqing fell silent.

“I know you’re holding a grudge, but can you really not forgive him? No matter what, he is your husband and has not divorced you,” Luo Rui said.

Guo Yuqing shook her head, “To be with him, I would be immediately reminded of my father. My father died because of him; how can I forgive him!”

Luo Rui responded, “True, he was indeed foolish in that matter, acting almost without thinking. But I heard that he did it to save us. Otherwise, we would have been killed.”

“That still doesn’t justify what he did,” Guo Yuqing argued.

“He later tried to atone for his mistake. He went after Longhun to save the people of the Immortal and Demon Realms and ended up disfiguring himself. Don’t you think he deserves a chance?” Luo Rui pressed.

“Stop talking about it, I don’t want to think about this right now.” She was still worried about Ye Chen.

“Alright, these are your personal matters, and I am just an outsider. I will always support your decisions, and I hope that you can find happiness,” Luo Rui of course knew she was in a bad mood.

Guo Yuqing was stunned again.

Luo Rui stood up, then suddenly sat back down and asked, “There is something I really want to ask you, but I’m not sure if I should.”

“Don’t be such a fusspot, just ask whatever it is.”

It was only after hearing Qing’er mention that Ye Chen was still alive that she had this question. She asked, “Do you still have feelings for Ye Chen?” She had heard about what happened in Bell and Drum City and saw how conflicted Qing’er was earlier; she couldn’t help but be suspicious.

Guo Yuqing was silent for a moment before she said, “Do you think I still have feelings for Ye Chen, and that’s why I didn’t tell my sister about Ye Chen being alive? You think I’m unwilling to forgive Su Zhanze?”

“I didn’t think that, but I know how you felt about Ye Chen. Moreover, the incident in Bell and Drum City is public knowledge now. It’s reasonable for me to think this way,” she replied.

“You really are a busybody. Me and him… it’s impossible,” she said. She was now a married woman, how could she match him? Even without the issue with Guo Yuyun, she was not worthy of Ye Chen. It was wishful thinking.

Even though Guo Yuqing said that, Luo Rui could not completely believe her. She understood Guo Yuqing; she had seen how Guo Yuqing fell in love with Ye Chen. Moreover, Guo Yuqing’s relationship with Su Zhanze was not good; the two of them were almost never on the same wavelength, which is why they had been arguing ever since they got married.

Truthfully, she didn’t know what else to say; what mattered most was how the other person felt.

Unknowingly, dusk had fallen.

He Xibai walked in and called out, “Sister Qing’er, no matter what, you must go. You didn’t fish at noon; you have to participate in the fish barbecue tonight.”

Luo Rui was about to prepare dinner when she heard this and said, “Then I won’t make dinner tonight.”

“Why bother with dinner? We caught a lot of fish tonight, really a lot.”

“I know that Yun’er has been staying in her room for over ten days, refusing to go out. How come she suddenly went out to fish today?”

He Xibai replied, “Song Xizhi is leaving.”

“Leaving, as in leaving Demon Palace City?” Luo Rui could hardly believe it.

“Yes, he can’t stay here forever; this isn’t his home.”

“Then what do we do, will Yu Yun’s mother agree? Will Song Xizhi be willing to leave? Has he given up?” Of course, Luo Rui was joking.

He Xibai giggled and said, “Yu Yun’s mother certainly doesn’t want that, and Song Xizhi doesn’t really want to leave either. But he has told us that he will keep in touch.”

“So, you mean to say that Yu Yun has agreed to be with him?” Luo Rui glanced at Guo Yuqing as she spoke.

“How is that possible,” He Xibai continued, “Yu Yun only has Ye Chen in her heart. She couldn’t possibly forget Ye Chen that quickly.”

“Ye Chen is dead.”

“Yes, it’s all in the past now!” He Xibai added, “But getting over it will take time.”

Luo Rui smiled slightly and asked Qing’er, “So I won’t be making dinner tonight.”

“Why make dinner when there’s plenty to eat over there. It would be more fun if we all come together. You’re an elder sister after all, and he might become your brother-in-law.”

Guo Yuqing smiled faintly and said, “Don’t worry, you go first. I’ll change my clothes and then join you.” Indeed, if Song Xizhi was leaving, how could she not go to bid him farewell? If not for that young man, her sister would have met with misfortune.

Soon, He Xibai left, and Luo Rui and Guo Yuqing were left alone, and it became quiet once again.

Luo Rui looked at Guo Yuqing’s face, which had become a few shades more solemn.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“That young man really likes your sister. I can tell,” Luo Rui said seriously.

“So what?”

“If you matchmake them, wouldn’t you get a chance to be with Ye Chen?”

“You crazy girl, how come I never thought of that?” Guo Yuqing was clearly becoming anxious.

“If you’re that hung up on him, you can totally do it. Now, figure out a way to match your sister with him, and it’s done,” she said.

Hearing this, Guo Yuqing felt even more guilt. “Don’t meddle in their affairs,” she said. She didn’t know if Ye Chen would ever be well again. If indeed he could recover, her interference could lead to Guo Yuyun blaming her if things went awry, potentially causing a rift between them.

“I’m afraid that even if I don’t want to meddle, someone else will,” Luo Rui said.

“What do you mean?”

Luo Rui answered, “Your stepmother, how could she possibly let her stay single? It’s out of the question. Yu Yun isn’t that young anymore; she has to get married someday, and your stepmother has taken a liking to young Song Xizhi. She’s convinced that Ye Chen is dead, and she will definitely help Song Xizhi.”

Guo Yuqing shook her head, speechless.

Luo Rui said, “I heard your stepmother’s maid talking, saying that your mother wants to have Song Xizhi’s father come over to propose.”

“You girl, always talking nonsense,” Guo Yuqing retorted.

Luo Rui sighed and continued, “Sigh, who can be sure about anything now. The Thirty-Six Islands are in chaos. If Ye Chen hadn’t managed to destroy that ring and instead became possessed, who could ensure his safety? If we tell Guo Yuyun now, we might not be able to save him, and that would just bring more pain.”
