Chapter 1192 - 1192 1178 Jiang Shizi

Chapter 1192: Chapter 1178: Jiang Shizi Chapter 1192: Chapter 1178: Jiang Shizi Guo Yuyun was still smiling, obviously full after her meal. She said, “It’s not that fast. I haven’t even met his family yet, how could we get married so soon?”

“Are you going to meet his family?” Luo Rui was excited.

“What’s wrong, can’t I meet his family?”

Luo Rui hurriedly shook her head and said, “No, I was just wondering if you have truly moved on from your last relationship. Getting married so quickly, have you thought it through?”

Guo Yuyun was somewhat surprised and said, “I really didn’t expect you and my sister both think I’m rushing into this.”

Feeling embarrassed, Luo Rui smiled and said, “I don’t know about your situation. I just didn’t expect you would want to meet his family so soon.”

“We don’t think it’s soon, but you all do.” Yun’er was puzzled.

Luo Rui quickly said, “I think your sister wants you to take your time. Besides, you aren’t that old, only eighteen. Getting married so early is not good.”

Guo Yuyun glanced at Luo Rui, pondered seriously for a moment, finding some truth to it. She wanted to make her thoughts clear to her sister, there was no point in staying. “I am going to meet his family, and also to take my mind off things.”

No wonder Qing’er looked so worried.

Guo Yuyun stood up and added, “I won’t talk to you about this anymore. I won’t be getting married that soon, but make sure you prepare a nice wedding gift for me. Don’t be stingy.” She continued, “Sister, you should have a good talk with Su Zhanze.”

Guo Yuqing’s mind was completely focused on her, and it took her a long time to respond with a soft, “Hmm. When you go out, be careful. Don’t worry about things at home, and there’s no need to rush to meet his family. I’ll take care of Mother.”

Guo Yuyun had said everything she wanted to say, grabbed an orange from the fruit plate, and said, “Alright, I won’t disturb you anymore,” and left.

Only Guo Yuqing and Luo Rui remained.

Luo Rui watched Qing’er, lost in thought, knowing what she was thinking. She hadn’t expected things to progress so quickly. Trying to console her, Luo Rui said, “He said he’s going out to have fun, so it means he won’t get married right away, right?”

All Qing’er could feel was confusion, her mind a mess. She thought about a month from now, what would happen after one month? Once she meets his family, everything would speed up. Could Ye Chen recover in one month? No one knew.

“What should I do?” Qing’er muttered, overwhelmed by how quickly things were moving.

“You’ve done your best. It’s not even at that stage yet! Maybe in this period, Ye Chen might destroy the ring,” Luo Rui could only comfort her in this manner.

“What if he can’t succeed?”

“If he can’t succeed, you wouldn’t want your sister to be with Ye Chen either.”

Guo Yuqing looked at Luo Rui pensively.

“Don’t even start with that. Song Xizhi has been really good to your sister. During the time he’s been here, your sister and mother have been happier than before. I believe you can feel it too.”

“If that’s the case and Ye Chen gets better later, she’ll blame me.”

“How could she? If anyone’s to blame, it’s that monkey. He’s the one who came up with all this, so it’s not your fault. Don’t blame yourself, that would be unreasonable.”

Guo Yuqing pressed her forehead, still not sure how to delay things. Suddenly Yun’er had given her such good news, leaving her feeling a bit overwhelmed.

“Maybe we should kidnap your sister, or Song Xizhi,” Luo Rui was brainstorming wildly.

Qing’er jumped in shock and looked over, “What, a kidnapping?”

“If it really comes down to it, kidnapping could buy us some time.”

“You’re quite bold.” She couldn’t believe the other person could come up with such a bad idea.

“Hey, maybe you’re just anxious. Nobody knows for sure whether Ye Chen can truly remove the magic power. If he really can’t, it wouldn’t be too bad for your sister to be with Song Xizhi.”

“Nonsense, he will definitely get better,” Qing’er tried to reassure herself.

“Right, I’m talking nonsense. This mouth of mine doesn’t have a filter,” Luo Rui began to clean up the dishes on the table.

Guo Yuqing pondered again and said, “Do we really have to resort to kidnapping?”

“Of course not, I just said it off the cuff, I wasn’t serious about it.” It seemed she was really anxious, otherwise Qing’er wouldn’t have considered it.

Noon.

Guo Yuqing was lost in thought by herself in the courtyard, not in the mood to think about her situation with Su Zhanze. The servant girls were nowhere to be seen, leaving her alone in the yard. Honestly, she had no desire to do anything else.

She seriously considered Luo Rui’s words. If Ye Chen can’t recover, of course, that’s an if, then it might not be a bad thing for her sister to be with Song Xizhi.

She had earnestly scrutinized that young man, finding him honest and dependable. Most importantly, he truly cared for Yun’er, and her mother liked him especially. His family was not lacking either; if Yun’er truly went with him, she would definitely not suffer.

Such were the chaotic thoughts racing through her mind.

Suddenly, a voice from outside interrupted her train of thought.

A flamboyant girl appeared, with a maid holding two bundles following her.

It was none other than Jiang Shizi, who had long said she would come to visit. She brought along her own maid, Bi Chun, and finally, Luo Rui.

Yu Qing hurriedly got up and walked over. It had been a long time since they had last seen each other, and both were extremely excited. They embraced each other instantly, breaking down in tears.

Both Immortal City and Demon Palace City had been through much, and many had departed. The feeling that they could meet again seemed like a stroke of luck, which naturally stirred their emotions.

Luo Rui called out, “I’ll go make some tea.”

Bi Chun put the bundles on a stone bench, saying, “I’ll go with you.”

The two were like lovers who hadn’t seen each other for a long time, with a thousand heartfelt words to share.

Jiang Shizi glanced at Guo Yuqing, noticing her pallor wasn’t quite right, and wondered what had happened. She asked, “Why do you look unwell? That’s not right. I heard that Yun’er has already come out and even found a new prospect, the son of a Sect Leader. You should be happy.”

Yu Qing glanced outside, saying, “You only know part of it, not the whole story.”

Hearing this, Jiang Shizi was even more puzzled and asked with a smile, “What do you mean?”

Yu Qing pulled Jiang Shizi into the room, as if not wanting the other maids to overhear. At this moment, she just wanted to find someone to help her think of a solution. She took a deep breath and told Jiang Shizi everything about Ye Chen still being alive, Dragonfly Mountain, and what happened afterward.

Jiang Shizi was completely stunned, hardly daring to believe this was true, and exclaimed, “You mean that monkey, he’s been alive all along, and has been hiding it from your sister?”

“Yes, only a very few people know.”

Jiang Shizi seemed to understand and said, “You’re anxious, worried about your sister getting married and what to do if that monkey recovers by then.”

Yu Qing nodded and replied, “I’ve resigned to my fate, but I truly don’t want my sister to miss out on happiness like I did.”

“Are you planning to tell her?”

“How could I? How could I tell her now? You know how stubborn my sister is. If she finds out Ye Chen is still alive, she’ll head straight to the thirty-six islands, but what if that monkey never recovers?”

Jiang Shizi nodded slightly; she had also heard about the incident in Bell and Drum City and how Guo Yuyun nearly died. If not for the Sky Mountain Snow Lotus, they likely wouldn’t have seen her again.

“Then continue to keep it a secret. If Ye Chen truly recovers, you can tell her then. If he doesn’t, then don’t tell her.”

Yu Qing said, “That’s indeed what I’ve been thinking. But now, my sister wants to be with Song Xizhi, and she’s leaving Demon Palace City tomorrow to meet his family.”

Jiang Shizi suddenly understood and muttered, “Your sister is really going to marry Song Xizhi?”

“She has accepted Ye Chen’s death. Although she can’t forget him in her heart, she has decided to start over and wants to be with Song Xizhi. Part of it might be due to my mother, who hopes to see them together. My sister isn’t opposed; she believes that as long as the family is happy and the man truly cares for her, that’s enough; nothing else matters.”

After listening, Jiang Shizi’s face also grew troubled as she said, “Can’t it be delayed any longer?”

“That’s what I thought too, but this morning, my sister came and said she wanted to go meet Song Xizhi’s family. How could I possibly delay it any further and tell her that Song Xizhi isn’t a good man?”

Jiang Shizi was startled by the statement and said, “That would certainly not do. I’ve heard he’s a very honest young man, and I know his fellow disciple named Wu Jingge.”

“You know Wu Jingge?”

“Not me, but Zhan Ze is acquainted. Recently, Zhan Ze has been managing the affairs of Immortal City Sect, and as Wu Jingge handles affairs for the Nine Leaves Sect, he often comes to Immortal City, so they’re fairly well-acquainted.”

Yu Qing let out a deep sigh.

Jiang Shizi asked, “So there’s really no way to remove the magic power from Ye Chen?”

“We can’t be sure for now, but the direct use of the Sacred Spirit Stone to destroy the ring was a failure. We can only try other methods in the future.”

“Wasn’t there a method mentioned about transferring the magic power to someone else?”

Yu Qing answered, “Ye Chen nearly went berserk from the magic power before; he’s deeply entangled with it. Finding a replacement is very difficult and incredibly dangerous; the chances of success are slim. Even the Island Master of Immortal Medicine Island dares not to cast such a spell. If not careful, both might end up berserk—that would be the least of it. In a severe case, both could die.”

After hearing this, Jiang Shizi was at a complete loss for words.
