1083 [Bonus chapter]It’s Not Your Problem Alone
In fact, Long Qian Xing himself never thought that he would feel like this.
From the very beginning, he was not the type of person who could easily be swayed by his emotion. Even when he was facing his grandmother, he would try his best not to let emotion get the better of him.
He didn’t want to be an irrational person.
In his original world, he had high position too. With a lot of people having high expectation to him, he had long learned that he couldn’t be willful. He had to think carefully when making any choice to make sure that he would always get the most benefit.
That was why he didn’t really like the engagement that his grandmother set for him but he didn’t go against it.
Because he knew that in terms of status, First Young Miss Nan was indeed one of the most suitable young ladies in the Capital City to match his status. And with marriage in this era was mostly about building connection, Long Qian Xing knew that he couldn’t really go against it.
Unless he wanted another person, he chose to go along with it.
The little fiancée he had was a proper person and also very cold. At first, he just thought that she was a little kid that was a bit too cautious and cold. But he knew that it was just how most noble ladies were taught in this era.
They had to be gentle.
.....
They had to be careful because their position was lower.
But he realized that while his fiancée was indeed careful, she was also extremely smart that she could pick up even the slightest bit of clue. She came accompanying him without any other intention aside from fulfilling her duties.
Slowly but surely, he just got used to it.
Long Qian Xing himself didn’t know when exactly did he start to think that the little girl beside him was adorable and cute.
He also didn’t realize when he had allowed her to enter his heart.
He didn’t realize it at all.
And he still kept his distance to maintain the proper etiquette in front of her, not leaking out any of his real intentions. He wanted to wait until she fully grew up before thought of anything more.
But when he thought that he would lose her.
Even though it was not what had happened, he still could feel the heart wrenching feeling he had back then.
It was so painful.
In fact, he realized that she could easily fool him.
The Nan Family could have certainly prepared a fake body to make everyone believed that Nan Hua had died while she lived under another identity. Yet, the carriage was empty and there was not even the shadow of anyone inside.
He knew that she was still alive.
But she didn’t even inform him or most people where she went and why.
She ruthlessly kept him in suspense without caring about his feelings. Or rather, she might have chosen to let him know the carriage was empty so that he would know that she was actually still alive.
He didn’t know which one was the truth.
But he also knew one thing.
That when he thought he would lose her, he truly didn’t feel that he could accept it at all. It was as if there was a knife that was pierced into his heart, threatening to shatter everything.
He never realized how much he valued her before.
It was only when he lost everything did he realize how much she meant to him.
But at that time, Nan Hua was already at a place he didn’t even know where. She was away from him and all Long Qian Xing could do was to hope that she would always be fine wherever she is.
When he met her again, he came to realize that what Nan Hua knew far exceeded what other people would know.
She was involved in the war.
It was a fact that he couldn’t refute when he thought about Nan Hua’s reaction when he said the name Luo Qing Wei. And the fact that Luo Qing Wei could even be the one to provide the medicines to handle those special soldiers and poison from Zhang Xu Kingdom only strengthened that conjecture.
Nan Hua is Traveling Doctor Liu’s disciple.
And being his disciple meant that she would have come in contact with his other disciples who were also very good at medicines.
“Chen Yuan.”
The very person who was also behind this special soldiers. He had heard from his subordinates that Chen Yuan died on the very day when he saw Nan Hua again, so he could guess that she might know more about this matter.
She was also trying to do what Luo Qing Wei could do easily.
But Long Qian Xing could guess that Nan Hua was incapable to do it.
It was not like he looked down on his little fiancée, but it was because he understood the reason why Luo Qing Wei was hailed as medical genius. She came from the same world as him and in that world, she was the undisputable genius in medical field.
No one could come close to her.
He was not involved in medicine, but he could understand the meaning of that title very much.
And with her great advantage in medicine, he could guess that Luo Qing Wei probably didn’t even spare that much effort in order to make these medicines and learn the technique to reverse it.
For her, everything was as easy as drinking water.
Just like those other geniuses.
Their titles were not for nothing.
“Hua’er, this is not your problem alone.” Long Qian Xing shook his head when he thought of that stubborn little girl. In any case, he had no plan on letting Nan Hua be worried about this matter.
He was not good at medicine.
But it didn’t mean that he couldn’t use any other means to get his hand on it.
Even if it was a despicable means, he didn’t mind using it.
