Chapter 331: Her Secret

Xiao Er any more this time around." Mingyang kindly reminded."Didn't I say it before How could I forget Do you have such a good memory Then tell me, what time did this King return home last night Wha..."Hmm...." Xiao Yu Ge instinctively wanted to push him away, but she was too weak and couldn't push him off.

At the end, Qian Tingxuan still didn't forget to demand a bit more forcefully, as if punishing her for refusing to enter the palace with him today and getting drunk outside. He was angry, but mostly heartbroken.

At this moment, the sound of fireworks and firecrackers came from outside. In the black night, cheers rose in unison!

"Happy New Year! My little princess!" Qian Tingxuan turned his head to look at the drunk and confused woman in his arms, then lowered his head to kiss her smooth forehead.

"You're too loud..." Xiao Yuge seemed to find him too noisy, grumbling with a pouted face.

Qian Tingxuan couldn't help but laugh and feel angry at the same time. He pinched her delicate little face playfully, as if punishing her: "Little rascal, you dare to say I'm noisy."

"... Qian Ting Xuan..." she called out his name in a hazy stupor.

"I'm here." Qian Tingxuan thought she was cold and instinctively pulled her closer.

His low and gentle voice seemed to bring her great comfort. She instinctively burrowed into his arms, finding a sense of security in this warm embrace. Even in her dreams, she relied on it so much.

"Qiantingxuan..." she called out again.

"I'm here," he murmured, stroking her cheek gently. What was wrong with the little one When she was drunk, she became so dependent on him, but when she was sober, she'd rather have him miles away.

The lively sounds outside finally woke Xiao Yu Ge, who had been sleeping soundly. She frowned and struggled to open her eyes. Her vision was blurry, and Qian Ting Xuan seemed to have multiplied into several figures that kept swaying before her. She reached out and held his face: "Don't move, you've become so many..."

"Little rascal, see if you dare to drink this much again." Qian Tingxuan held her upright.

"Qianting Xuan..." She leaned closer to him, cupped his face, and stared at him intently with her hazy eyes.

"Huh" A breath laced with the scent of alcohol came rushing at him, leaving him slightly disoriented. His heart skipped a beat involuntarily.

"Do you really like me" A bewildered face, hazy eyes, seemed to have an extra touch of expectation.

“Of course, I like Xiao Ge'er, and I love Xiao Ge'er...” Qian Tingxuan unconsciously swallowed, grabbing her small hand that was holding his face: “What about Xiao Ge'er Does Xiao Ge'er like me Does Xiao Ge'er love Qian Tingxuan” He had never dared to ask when she was sober, afraid of the answer would make him sad. Now, she was drunk, they say people tell the truth after drinking, he wanted to know the answer.

"Huh Me" Her eyes, hazy with alcohol, were filled with confusion, yet seemed to whisper of a pain she couldn't voice.

Jian Tingxuan's long fingers brushed across her brow, tracing the outline of her delicate lips: "Xiao Ge'er loves Jian Tingxuan too, doesn't she" Though he had long passed the age of impulsive passion, facing her now, he still felt a surge of blood within him, a primal yearning. He craved her response.

"Hmm." She looked at him, somewhat dazed, but shook her head.

His eyes widened, the joy on his face instantly fading. A wry smile appeared: "Little Songbird doesn't like me" If this little one dared to say she didn't like him, he'd have to punish her severely.

"I just want revenge... I can't like you..." She shook her head, as if trying to clear her thoughts.

"Revenge" Qian Tingxuan's mind moved, and he followed up: "Who are you seeking revenge from" Perhaps this was the biggest secret hidden in her heart.

"I want to kill them... they killed me... they destroyed my martial arts, broke my limbs... and even pierced through my collarbone with that huge iron hook... I'm in so much pain... oh..." Even drunk, the pain still made her body tremble. She hugged Qian Tingxuan tightly, crying hysterically as if she had grabbed the last straw.

Her fragmented words shocked Qian Tingxuan's face. It turned out that this was her nightmare, but these things had never happened at all. How could this be But now she was drunk and it was impossible for her to lie.

“I begged them to let me go, but they didn’t...” The scene from her death in the previous life was her nightmare in this life. No matter how long time passed, the pain was real and she still felt it.

“Who are they” She tightened her grip on his hand, a sudden wave of protectiveness washing over her. Even in a dream, she couldn't forgive anyone who would dare to hurt her like this.

‘Qian Tingxuan, if you’re still alive, I promise you, when I avenge myself, I’ll go wandering the world with you......’ He suddenly remembered, at the moment he fell off the cliff, she had also said those words. At that time, he didn't understand, only thinking that it was because she thought they had been tricked by others, so she was unwilling to accept it. Now looking back, it seemed like something else entirely.

After he was with her, he saw hatred in her eyes more than once. He looked into everything about her from childhood to adulthood, but he couldn't figure out who she hated or what went wrong.

When he wanted to ask her again, he realized that she had fallen asleep in his arms at some point. This time, though, there were still glistening tears on her face.

"Little song, no matter who it is, dares to hurt you to this extent, they deserve to die!" He carried her back to the bed, gently pulled the quilt and tucked her in, then looked outside, leaped, and vanished into the night.

The Wind Listening Courtyard.

“That’s strange, it’s late at night, you shouldn’t be here in my courtyard. Shouldn’t you be with my little sister Have you suddenly had a change of heart and decided to keep me, this lonely old man, company” Crane Ming was quite surprised to see Qian Tingxuan appear in his courtyard while he was busy.

"Come, have a seat." Qian Tingxuan tossed him a jug of wine and sat down at the table by himself.

"Well, well, a fine daughter's red this is. You really have come to your senses." He plucked it from her hand, opened it carefully, and sniffed it before taking a small sip. "Mmm, simply delicious," he remarked with pleasure.

After I walked over, I found that Qian Tingxuan's face was not quite right, and I couldn't help but frown slightly: "What's the matter Did you quarrel with my little junior sister again and get kicked out That can't be right, your skin is so thick, you could even get kicked out"

Qianting Xuan pursed his lips and sat there silently in a low mood.

He Crane also realized something was wrong, and earnestly asked, "What happened"

"I would like to ask, is it possible for a person to truly have precognition, or to know future events"

"Pfft!" Hè Míng almost spit out the wine in his mouth after hearing that. He reached out and touched Qián Tíng Xuān's forehead, then felt his own: "You don't even have a fever! What nonsense are you talking about"

"I'm not joking with you." Qian Tingxuan was also serious. He had thought about it all night, and it seemed like this was the only possibility. But how could anyone possibly know what the future holds" He Ming ignored someone's sharp gaze, reaching out to pat Xiao Yu Ge on the head."Hiss!" Someone cried out in pain, and began their performance."What's wrong" Xiao Yuge hurriedly put down He Ming an...
