Chapter 60 -56: Confession
Ye Chen also relaxed a bit.
Unaware, it was already noon. Ye Chen said, “Let’s have lunch before we go back.”
“You’re not rushing me to leave?” Yu Qing asked.
“How can I? You’re so caring towards me. Since you’ve given me medicine for my fall, I’ll have you stay for lunch.”
“What about your mother?”
“She won’t be back at noon.”
“Is she in the kitchen area?”
“Yes.”
“Your mother still has to work there.”
“Of course, you really think we came to Immortal City to freeload?! Although the Sect Leader is my martial uncle, we share no blood ties.”
Yu Qing cynically chuckled, “Yet you’re worried about your mother coming back.”
“She does come back occasionally,” Ye Chen called out, “Jing Si, you may prepare the lunch now.”
Jing Si stepped out. At the door, she saw a basket. Picking it up, she saw something inside, hurriedly ran in, and said, “There’s a beggar’s chicken here.”
“Who put it there?” Ye Chen asked.
“Don’t know, it is still warm.”
“Ye Chen said, “Is it poisonous?”
Hearing this, Jing Si chuckled, “Of course not, such a fine delicacy, why waste it on poisoning? Even if someone wanted to poison, they wouldn’t waste it on this.”
“Perhaps my mother came back, saw us acting lovey-dovey in the room, and didn’t dare to come in,” Ye Chen suggested.
“Who were acting lovey-dovey? Stop talking nonsense.” Yu Qing glanced at Jing Si and laughed lightly.
Jing Si asked, “So, dare to eat it?”
Ye Chen responded, “Dare to. Who wouldn’t? Definitely going to eat. If it’s poisoned, let it poison me first.”
“Then should I continue preparing lunch?”
“No need, you go do your work.”
Jing Si quickly left.
“You better wait, watch to see if it poisons me before eating,” Ye Chen told Yu Qing.
Yu Qing didn’t pay him any mind, already starting to eat.
“You’re not afraid it could really poison you? This isn’t a joke.”
“Then you don’t eat it. Let it poison me.”
Ye Chen chuckled, “You really have a sense of humor. Such a delicious dish, even if it poisons me, it’s worth it.”
He broke it open, steam still rising from it.
The cicadas began their relentless chirping again, fluttering about in the trees.
“Did your mother misunderstand us?”
“I wouldn’t mind if my mother misunderstood, I’d be more worried about others misunderstanding.”
“Haoyu really hit you hard, leaving you in such a state.”
Aghast, Ye Chen asked, “How is Zhan Ze? Has his injury improved?”
“His injury isn’t as severe as yours, don’t worry.”
“That’s good. You should care for him instead of worrying about me,” Ye Chen replied.
Yu Qing scoffed, “You sure like intervening in other people’s affairs.”
“Not intervening, just caring.”
“I’m not interested in Zhan Ze.”
“Don’t tell me you’re interested in me!”
“Yes, I might actually like you.”
Hearing this, Ye Chen’s eyes widened, “Don’t joke like that. If you want me to avoid getting beat up, please don’t do this. Spare me, Guanyin Bodhisattva.” He sounded so desperate he could have been on his knees.
“What’s the matter with getting more beatings for me? It’s worth it.”
Ye Chen laughed, “Please spare me. I can’t handle such shocks. How am I supposed to face Zhan Ze in the future?”
“I’ll take you to Demon Palace City.”
“You can’t even handle your stepmother’s affairs, yet you want to worry about mine? Taking me to Demon Palace City to make me a kept man? Do I look like a kept man to you? I’d rather go back to the countryside with my mother, at least there it’s peaceful.”
Yu Qing snorted, “You should be satisfied.”
“Don’t joke about this. I really can’t afford it.”
“Did I ever say I was joking? You, on the other hand, aren’t bad. At least I feel relaxed around you, not so oppressed.”
“Just like that, you’ve fallen for me? How can it be! There are many people who can make you feel relaxed, don’t joke like this, I’m just a country bumpkin.”
“What’s wrong with being a bumpkin? Liking someone is just a feeling.”

“Seems like I should seclude myself.”
“Going to avoid me?”
“You frighten me.”
“Scared? I’m so beautiful, your ancestors must be green with envy.”
“I’m afraid they’ll be blowing black smoke instead!”
Yu Qing was eating the beggar’s chicken, her mouth full and greasy.
Ye Chen gave a cold smile and said, “Please don’t joke with me like this, I can’t afford it.”
Yu Qing also sneered, saying, “For me to fall for you, it is your good luck. There are so many people fawning over me, whom I don’t even bother to acknowledge.”
“This good fortune, I fear, is too overwhelming for me.”
Qing’er of course, knew what he meant.
“What’s so good about me? I’m just an uneducated country bumpkin. What is there for you to like?”
“I don’t know, it’s just a feeling. I feel very happy when I am with you.”
“Are you not happy when you’re with Zhan Ze?”
“Unhappy. I never know when he might do something unexpected, and he is very quick-tempered, which I hate most.”
“But he only blew up on Hao Yu once. This can be put in the past.”
“It’s not just that, like when he made you identify Dongfang Tang, he didn’t consider the consequences. He always acts impulsively just to vent his anger; it’s baffling why he can’t just restrain himself for a little while.”
“It’s not that serious. He has been a bit impulsive, but he can gradually change that. He’s still young, what can’t be changed!”
“Maybe so. But, I still feel happy when I’m with you.”
“Thank you. I really can’t engage in this kind of game with you.”
“You should be contented with a rich lady like me liking you.”
“Don’t walk to the extreme without a return path!”
Yu Qing suddenly asked, “Don’t you like me even a little bit?”
Ye Chen casually responded, “I like all pretty girls.”
She wished she could slap him, but he was injured so she refrained, retorting, “Can’t you speak seriously for once?”.
“This is my heartfelt truth. All pretty girls, I like them. Who does not like pretty girls, are they fools?” Ye Chen laughed as he continued to eat.
“I’ve shared my true feelings with you. Can’t you just earnestly say once that you like me too?”
“Wow, someone’s forcing others to say they like her. Quite shameless.”
She glared at him.
“Alright, I like you a little bit, just a tiny bit. Who wouldn’t like a girl so beautiful and understanding, one who sent me medicine when I was injured. Although sometimes a bit domineering and aggressive, she’s still very attractive.”
Yu Qing cracked a small smile after hearing this.
Ye Chen continued, “But continuous association ends in dissociation. We’re not of the same kind. Most importantly, we’re still young, we don’t understand anything. When we’re more mature we won’t think like this.”
Yu Qing continued to eat her food.
“I don’t know when we will be able to meet again after we part,” Yu Qing lamented.
“If it’s meant to be, we will meet again. There’s no need to be sad, just remember brother Ye’s good side.”
“If you dare to say that you don’t like me, I’ll show you!”
“Ha ha, you really are quite domineering.”
“Being domineering is my privilege.”
“So many people like you, but it’s merely for your beauty.”
She shot him a glare and retorted, “And you?”
“I like your pitifulness.”
“You’re the pitiful one, country bumpkin!”
“Sure, I am a country bumpkin. And yet, you like this country bumpkin.”
The chicken was quickly reduced to a mere skeleton.
Without realising it, midday had passed. It had been a long while since Qing’er felt so chuffed and was able to voice out her feelings.
“You should be full by now; it’s time to go back. Don’t let Zhan Ze anxiously wait for you.” Ye Chen stood up.
“I really want to beat you up.”
“You really do care for me.”
Yu Qing also rose to her feet.
“Not willing to leave, want to stay here, take a nap before going back?” Ye Chen asked.
“Haha, you think too much.”
“Then let’s go back, lest Zhan Ze comes looking for you and finds that you are not in Jingyue Pavilion. He’d be worried.”
Zhan Ze had been waiting in the peach grove for a long time. As the sun reached its zenith, the passing of these few hours felt like an entire year to him.
After seeing off Yu Qing, Ye Chen returned to his room. The medicine the maid brought over indeed worked better than what he had last night.
As Yu Qing, elated, was going through the woods, she was seen by Zhan Ze. Her smile struck his heart like a needle. His heart felt as if it had been punctured.
Suddenly, a voice emerged from the woods: “Yu Qing.”
Guo Yuqing jumped in fright. Turning around, she thought she saw a ghost. On a tree, there sat a person with his legs swinging, eyes staring blankly as if possessed, completely devoid of expression.
Yu Qing asked, “Zhan Ze, what are you doing here?”
“Do you really like Ye Chen?”
“What?” Yu Qing was taken aback.
“I saw everything.”
Yu Qing was suddenly nervous.
“When did you guys get together?”
“What are you talking about? There’s a misunderstanding. Does he think we were seen in the Pear Blossom Garden?” Qing’er wondered.
“What misunderstanding? Recently I heard people saying you two had been meeting in the pear blossom garden. I didn’t believe it. They said you two were in a relationship, I didn’t believe it either. But today I saw and heard everything. What’s there left to say?”
