Chapter 64

This was the school gate entrance, with two large surveillance cameras, they should have seen her, right?

"Just confess, are you with Song Jingyuan?"

Feng Qingyi looked at the time, "I'm not close with him, and I don't have time to chat with you about these boring topics. Please let me through."

"Feng Qingyi, you said before you were quitting the dance club, but Nan Wei hasn't agreed. You should know that to quit now, you need to write a 10,000-word application."

"Since you want to quit the dance club, then submit a 10,000-word application, otherwise you can't quit."

Feng Qingyi looked at Nan Wei, but she didn't say a word, meaning she had found support to just watch from the sidelines?

Having to write a 10,000-word application, were the senior students this unreasonable nowadays?

"Please tell me, seniors, where is this rule stated? It seems you just made it up!"

"I don't mind posting it on the forum, along with what happened previously."

"As you know, I'm quite popular on the school forum."

"If this matter is exposed, I likely won't be affected, but I don't know about you."

They really thought she was a meek little rabbit?

Feng Qingyi walked past them out of the school gate.

"Nan Wei, don't take it too seriously. I don't think Song Jingyuan would be interested in her. The forum posts are just baseless rumors."

"It's just unexpected that she's so arrogant. Previously when Xia Yu confessed to her and failed, he was mocked by the whole school and couldn't even show his face in class. She must not be a good person either."

"Nan Wei, just relax. You and Song Jingyuan grew up together, almost like childhood sweethearts. You should have confidence in yourself."

"..."

Despite her friend's consolation, Nan Wei still didn't feel very good.

Baseless rumors? If he didn't have that intention, why didn't he come out and explain?

There were so many empty seats in the cafeteria, why did he choose to sit next to her specifically?

The last time backstage, she thought he was helping her out of an awkward situation, but now it seems that may not have been the case.

Although they grew up together, he never had any romantic feelings towards her, they couldn't even be considered friends.

But she had liked him for so many years, she wasn't willing to just give up like this.

She was just a little girl, could she really not compare to Nan Wei herself?

When Feng Qingyi returned to the villa, she received a box of gold bars and dinner that Qin Yuchuan had sent over.

Feng Qingyi looked at the small box of gold bars, not knowing what to do.

[Qingyi: This is too much, just a few bars would be enough to pay back the money for the clothes you bought me.]

[Qingyi: I'll return the rest to you.]

[Yuchuan: Consider the excess as payment for your hard work.]

[Yuchuan: Eat now, tonight's porridge is what I specially instructed the kitchen to make.]

[Qingyi: Okay, I'll eat first.]

It was just that this payment for her hard work was too much. If he gave her a few more loads like this, she would probably become wealthy.

After finishing the porridge and dishes Qin Yuchuan sent over, Feng Qingyi still decided to return most of the gold bars.

However, a small line of text appeared on her phone: The recipient has rejected your item.

What? Why could he reject it, but she didn't have that option?

[Qingyi: ?]

[Yuchuan: What's wrong?]

[Qingyi: Why did you reject it!]

[Yuchuan: Since I've already given it to you, there's no reason to take it back.]

[Qingyi: But I really don't need that much.]

[Yuchuan: Buy whatever you want, don't deprive yourself. Eat more, you're too thin.]

With all the food and drinks at the supermarket, she didn't know how much his gift could buy. If it wasn't enough, he could add more.

[Qingyi: ...]This man was really wealthy and generous.

[Yuchuan: Remember to take good care of yourself when alone. Buy whatever you want, and tell me if you have any problems.]

[Qingyi: Qin Yuchuan, why are you so good to me?]

He was being too good to her, to the point that she felt it was excessive.

Qin Yuchuan was silent for a long time after seeing this question, before slowly replying.

[Yuchuan: Didn't you say we were friends?]

Friends? Was he this generous with all his friends?

[Qingyi: Yeah, friends.]

[Yuchuan: Don't overthink it. Time to study now, we'll video chat after you're done.]

[Qingyi: Okay.]

Feng Qingyi cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks, returned to her bedroom, and began her evening studies.

Qin Yuchuan, on the other hand, stared blankly at his phone, not knowing when he would see her again.

...

The next day, after the morning court session, Qin Yuchuan made a special trip to see Xuanyuan Sheng.

"Your Majesty, this subject has something to report!"

Xuanyuan Sheng saw it was Qin Yuchuan, "What matter does Yuchuan need to specially see me for today?"

"Recently, this subject encountered some people from the Southern Territory in Shengjing. It seems they came prepared, so I ask Your Majesty to be more vigilant."

Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Sheng became somewhat impatient.

"The governor of Wuqi has already reported this matter. Is Yuchuan bringing it up again because you disagree with my handling of it?"

"This subject means no disrespect. It's just that this matter is extremely important, so I ask Your Majesty to send people to investigate." Qin Yuchuan remained polite but firm.

"The Southern Territory is a mere trifle, what is there to be afraid of? Since Yuchuan has taken the initiative to report this, the investigation will be left to you. I hope you can get to the bottom of it."

Xuanyuan Sheng's tone was displeased.

In this great city of Shengjing, a few people from the Southern Territory were hardly a cause for concern. These military commanders were always overly apprehensive.

Qin Yuchuan: "This subject will do his utmost."

"Very well, you're dismissed!" This wasn't even a battle, yet they were idle enough to create work for themselves.

Qin Yuchuan had just left when a palace attendant came to report, "Your Majesty, the Noble Consort is waiting outside."

"Yan'er has arrived, quickly let her in." Hearing that Murong Yan had come, Xuanyuan Sheng's mood improved.

Murong Yan walked gracefully into Yangxin Hall, "This consort greets Your Majesty."

"Yan'er is here, come sit." Xuanyuan Sheng beckoned Murong Yan over.

Murong Yan smiled beautifully as she walked over to sit beside Xuanyuan Sheng.

"Is Your Majesty in a bad mood?"

Xuanyuan Sheng didn't hide it, "General Qin came to see me, saying people from the Southern Territory had appeared in the capital with ill intentions, and asked me to issue an edict for an investigation."

"I think he's just idle in his manor with nothing to do, so he's trying to make trouble. Let him investigate, let's see what he can dig up."

Murong Yan consoled, "General Qin certainly also has Your Majesty and the nation's best interests in mind."

"I fear that spies may have infiltrated Shengjing, posing a threat to the common people and the security of the realm."

"Yet General Qin Yuchuan commands a formidable force, and his unrestrained investigations within the capital are bound to disrupt the lives of the citizens."

Xuanyuan Sheng's tone grew somber. "What do you mean by that, Murong Yan?"

Murong Yan realized she may have gone too far and quickly explained herself.

"I have lived amongst the streets since childhood and have often witnessed the excesses of officials and soldiers." 𝘧𝘳𝓮𝓮𝓌𝘦𝓫𝓷𝘰𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝓬ℴ𝘮
