Han Xiao stared at Qin Shu. He had always been calm, as if he didn’t care about anything.

Other than losing control in the imperial city, he had become even reserved in the past few years.

Seeing that Qin Shu was living a very happy life, Han Xiao felt both relieved and disappointed.

The girl who had often smiled at him revealing two small canine teeth had grown up. She would no longer smile at him like that.

He withdrew his gaze, picked up the wine glass in front of him, and drank it in one gulp. Then, he put down the glass, stood up, and walked out.

Seeing Han Xiao leave, Hua Wuyan wanted to ask him where he was going, but in the end, he didn’t ask.

When Qin Shu saw Han Xiao leave, she put down her wine glass. She wanted to take this opportunity to chat with Han Xiao and talk about the past.

When she was young, she did not understand many things.

She leaned closer to the man. “I’m going out for a while.”

Fu Tingyu glanced at the empty seat opposite him and knew that she was going to look for Han Xiao. It would be a lie to say that he was not jealous. He was silent for a while before nodding. “Make it quick.”

“Okay.” Qin Shu was very touched by his understanding.

She stood up and strolled out.

Fu Tingyu poured wine and drink by himself. He felt that he was becoming less and less like himself. He was very unhappy that his girl was alone with Han Xiao, yet he did not stop her. He could only drink all by himself, feeling jealous.

Yan Shuang looked up from the food and found that there were three people missing from the dining table. She asked in puzzlement, “Hey, where are Ling Han and Ling Bao?”

Hua Wuyan had seen Han Xiao and Qin Shu when they went out, and he was also puzzled. “Maybe they drank too much and went out to get some fresh air.”

“Could it be that they are tipsy?” Yan Shuang turned her head to look at Fu Tingyu, and said, “Do you want to go out and take a look? Ling Bao seems to have drunk quite a lot.”

Hua Wuyan glanced at Fu Tingyu, waiting for his reaction.

Fu Tingyu turned his head to look at Yan Shuang, as if he was deep in thought.

Yan Shuang was a little puzzled and uncomfortable by his stare. “What’s wrong?”

Fu Tingyu retracted his gaze and finished the wine in his glass. He suddenly stood up and said, “I’m going out for a while.”

After saying that, he walked out.

Yan Shuang was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Hua Wuyan. “What’s wrong with him?”

“How would I know?” Hua Wuyan looked at Fu Tingyu’s back and wondered if he should follow him out to take a look?

Qin Shu followed Han Xiao out and saw him standing on the corridor not far away. She walked over.

Han Xiao knew that someone was behind him. Hearing the footsteps, he turned around and looked behind him. When he saw that it was Qin Shu, he was stunned.

Qin Shu walked over and stood before Han Xiao. She raised her head and looked at the man in front of her. From the time they parted at Qi Mountain until now, it had been ten years and he had transformed from a youth into a man.

However, she still remembered that the cold-as-ice youth had been injured multiple times to protect her and he did not even make a sound when he was bitten by a wolf.

She said, “Ling Xiao.”

This was the first time she called him this after the days in Qi mountain. Back in the days when they were in Qi Mountain to learn martial arts, the little girl always called him Ling Xiao.

“I haven’t heard you call me this for a long time.”

Qin Shu had a lot of things to say to Han Xiao, but the first thing that came out was, “I’m sorry, Ling Xiao.”

The sudden apology stunned Han Xiao for a few seconds. “Why did you say sorry?”

Qin Shu said, “Because of what I said, you looked for me for so many years, and in the end, I broke my promise to you…”

Before Qin Shu could finish, Han Xiao interrupted her. “Even if you didn’t say that, I would have looked for you, so you don’t have to apologize, and you don’t have to feel guilty.”

Qin Shu took two steps forward and stood side by side with Han Xiao. Her mind was filled with memories of the past as she slowly said, “When I was on the Qi Mountain, you were like a big brother to me. Like Master, you always give me a sense of security. Although you don’t talk much, you’re a very attentive person. No matter what you did or where you went, you always took good care of me. Master and Ling Yan were also very good to me, but you were always different.”

Han Xiao turned his head and stared at her without saying a word. After a while, he asked, “So, you’ve always treated me as a big brother, right?”

Qin Shu raised her head to look at Han Xiao and shook her head. “I was only ten years old at the time, but I still knew my feelings for you were different from those for Master and Ling Yan. I like you. It’s different from liking master and Ling Yan. I felt closer to you.”

Even now, she still felt the difference.

She thought for a while, then she said, “At that time, I thought that I would like to have a boyfriend just like you. You’re a good person, you take care of people, and you give me a sense of security. With you around, I have nothing to worry about.”

Han Xiao asked, “Was this why you said that to me?”

Qin Shu shook her head. “No.”

Han Xiao was a little puzzled. “Then what?”

“Do you remember that time when Master asked us to experience wildness survival?”

Han Xiao nodded. “Yes.”

“When you were bitten by a wolf on your arm, I was really scared that you’d die or that the wolf would break you arm.”

Although she was brave and her fighting skills were not bad, she lacked actual combat experience and had never seen blood before,

When she used the dagger to kill the wolf and blood splattered all over her face, she was not afraid. But the moment she saw Han Xiao being bitten by the wolf, she was scared.

“When we went back and Master said that your arm might be crippled, I cried.

“Master asked me, ‘Why are you crying?’

“I said that your arm was crippled, so you couldn’t do many things and couldn’t go down the mountain with me. And It’s all my fault. I was young and didn’t think much beyond that.”

If it was now, she would definitely be worried that he’d have trouble of getting a girlfriend.

Master had said, “Then you can marry him.”

After saying that, Qin Shu even complained to Han Xiao, “I really didn’t see that master could joke around.”

Han Xiao said, “Master doesn’t seem like a person who can joke.”

Qin Shu continued, “When I heard his words, I thought, since I liked you, maybe I could really marry you. If you were really crippled, I would take care of you and never let anyone bully you.”

Qin Shu now realized how innocent and young she had been at that time.. She had blurted out those words without even asking Han Xiao if he liked her.
