Chapter 37 Walking is good for physical and mental health
As the two drew closer to the official road, Li Yao's expression grew increasingly reluctant, while Lin Que's face was filled with complex emotions.
Finally, the two emerged from the mountains and forests and arrived at the official road.
Li Yao said to Lin Que, "Then I'm leaving."
Lin Que slowly nodded and said, "Okay!"
The two were heading in opposite directions; Li Yao turned to the right, while Lin Que turned to the left.
The two walked slowly, as if by prior arrangement. Li Yao's mood was extremely low at this moment. She didn't know why, but she was just very depressed.
As they walked, the two stopped at the same time, turned around and looked at each other. As if she had made up her mind, Li Yao put her arms around Lin Que and shouted loudly.
"I'm going back to the Frostmoon Empire. My sect is called the Clear Moon Immortal Palace!"
"You...you can come see me sometime in the future!"
"You'll definitely come looking for me, right?!"
At this moment, something deep within Lin Que's heart was deeply touched. Looking at Li Yao's expectant eyes, he then smiled.
And he shouted, "Yes!"
"I will definitely go!"
"Don't forget, I still owe you five hundred spirit stones!"
"How could I not go? I'm a person who always keeps my word!!!"
Upon hearing this, Li Yao's face blossomed into a bright, beautiful smile, as lovely and captivating as a butterfly fluttering among flowers.
Everything around him paled in comparison to that smile.
Lin Que was captivated by that smile and stared at it intently.
Li Yao blushed under his gaze and spat softly, "Pah! You jerk, haven't you seen enough yet? Keep staring at me!"
"I'm leaving! I'm ignoring you!"
After saying that, Li Yao turned and left without hesitation or doubt.
This time, however, his turn was clearly accompanied by an uncontrollable smile, with no trace of disappointment.
Lin Que looked at that retreating figure and laughed loudly, "Such a beautiful smile, I can never get enough of it!"
"Let me see you more next time we meet!"
Take care!
After saying that, Lin Que turned and left, with a touch of nonchalance.
Li Yao didn't turn around again, but whispered, "You bastard too."
"Take care of yourself......"
At this moment, somewhere in the mountains, there was a group of people who were talking as they headed towards Qijia Village.
"You mean, the remnants of the Qi family are all at the front?"
"Hmph, I am a member of the Qi family myself, I have no reason to lie to you."
"If that's the case, and it's really as you say, we will grant your request."
Unbeknownst to the villagers of Qijia Village, a crisis was quietly approaching.
......
An hour later, Lin Que was strolling leisurely along the official road, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, his head resting on his hands, humming a tune as he headed towards the village, though it seemed to be quite a distance away.
"If only we could fly! This teleportation array is really something, it would be so much better if it could teleport us closer."
"I don't know if I'll be able to get back to the village before dark."
Lin Que was muttering to himself at that moment.
“Tap tap tap~~~”
As the sound drew closer, Lin Que turned his head and saw a carriage approaching from afar, eventually stopping slowly beside him.
Just as Lin Que was curiously examining the carriage, the curtain was pulled open, revealing a fair-skinned face with delicate features, and a head of black hair styled in a palace style slowly cascading down.
Lin Que's eyes lit up instantly!
Looks like I won't have to walk by myself anymore.
Su Yuyan looked at Lin Que outside the carriage and said with a charming smile, "Oh~! Isn't this Young Master Lin?"
"Why are you all alone here?"
Lin Que chuckled, instantly circled around to the back of the carriage, and before Su Yuyan could react, he stepped onto the carriage.
He sat down opposite Su Yuyan and said, "See, you're not lonely anymore now."
"By the way, thank you, Miss Yuyan, for giving me a ride."
The speed was incredibly fast.
Su Yuyan was taken aback. She hadn't even offered to invite him to get in the car yet, and this guy was really shameless.
He then smiled and said, "Didn't Young Master Lin say that he is usually a very proper person?"
Lin Que waved his hand and said in a serious tone, "I don't usually take walks here alone."
Su Yuyan was speechless at this guy's shamelessness. Are you trying to say that things are not the same as usual now?
For a moment, I was both annoyed and amused.
She said softly, "Why is Young Master Lin taking a walk here alone?"
Lin Que replied, "My mother said that eating a full meal and then taking a walk helps with digestion and is good for physical and mental health."
"Gulu~~~"
Just as Lin Que finished speaking, a sound came from his stomach.
The carriage was moving slowly, but the atmosphere inside was suddenly a little awkward.
Lin Que scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "I wonder if Miss Yuyan has prepared any food in this carriage?"
Since the start and end of the trial at the Dan Valley Ruins, Lin Que has not eaten anything, and his stomach is growling with hunger.
Su Yuyan said speechlessly, "Didn't Young Master Lin say that he had just finished eating and was taking a walk here?"
Lin Que said seriously, "I guess the walk burned too much energy and he got hungry."
Su Yuyan felt insulted and decided to ignore him. However, she still took out some snacks from a box and handed them to Lin Que.
Lin Que accepted it and said gratefully, "Thank you very much, Miss Yuyan!"
They then began to eat, and there was no more talking on the carriage until Lin Que was full.
After eating his fill, Lin Que patted his belly contentedly.
Then, curiously, he asked Su Yuyan, "Where are you going, Miss Yuyan?"
Su Yuyan said, "Let's go on a spring outing."
"..."
A woman and a famous chauffeur claiming to be going on a spring outing – who would believe that?
Lin Que touched his nose and said, "I didn't expect Miss Yuyan to be able to joke."
Su Yuyan chuckled and said, "Likewise."
After a while, seeing that Lin Que really didn't intend to say why she was there, Su Yuyan gave up asking and said, "Alright, it doesn't matter if I tell you."
"I have accomplished the purpose of my family's mission in Cangwu City, and I am now on my way back to my family."
"I see." After understanding, Lin Que took the initiative to say, "Actually, I'm here because of other things. I've separated from the team, so I told them to go back first."
Then it was Su Yuyan's turn to be curious.
"What has happened that has made Young Master Lin so upset?"
"I wonder if I can be of any help?"
Lin Que said, "He is my relative, named Zhang Mengde. I got lost from him before, and I finally got news of him, so I wanted to go and look for him."
"I didn't expect that we still couldn't find it."
He made up a random excuse to get by, but he definitely couldn't tell anyone about what happened in Dan Valley.
To be fair, my second uncle can be quite useful sometimes.
Su Yuyan nodded and said, "I see. In that case, I might be able to help a little when we return to the family."
"I then instructed my subordinates who were away to inquire about and keep an eye out for this person when they had free time."
Lin Que didn't expect to find Zhang Mengde, but he was very grateful to hear that Su Yuyan was willing to help and said, "Then thank you very much, Miss Yuyan."
"Then consider it a favor I owe you."
Su Yuyan said it was nothing, just a simple favor.
Two hours later, the carriage slowly came to a stop again, and a figure got off.
Lin Que cupped his hands in thanks to Su Yuyan and said, "Thank you for giving me a ride, Miss Yuyan. I'll be leaving now."
"Take care on your journey, Miss Yuyan!"
Su Yuyan said with a smile, "Thank you for your concern, Young Master Lin. Remember to visit the Imperial Dynasty when you have time."
"The Su family is in the Imperial Dynasty."
Lin Que said he would definitely go when he had time, and then the carriage slowly drove away again.
Lin Que turned and walked into the jungle. This time he could finally return to the village. The markings along the way were correct.
As Lin Que walked along humming a little tune, a sudden feeling of unease crept into his heart.
I have a bad feeling.
Could it be that something happened in the village?
Upon realizing this, Lin Que immediately began to circulate his qi.
They rushed quickly towards the village...
