47. Empress (4)
Murong Yan just smiled at that time and didn’t say anything, but he killed the horse afterwards.
He would rather destroy the things he likes than allow them to fall into the hands of others.
However, Yu Qingjia is different from a steed, or his swords.
She can move, laugh, and talk to other people.
This was the first time Murong Yan felt a feeling of possessiveness towards a living person.
He was obviously unwilling to destroy Yu Qingjia, so he could only let her realize that she’s not allowed to look at other people, and leave him.
Murong Yan smiled, with his eyes growing dimmer, he then looked at her deeply,
“Sure enough, you were just being polite.”
Yu Qingjia is obviously a person with a conscience, she treats others with sincerity, and never thought of deceiving her friends, let alone betraying them for her own selfish desires.
So she thought that Murong Yan simply felt the same, he was just asking her not to deceive him, obviously Yu Qingjia would not have done it.
So she eventually softened her heart, her eyes moistened a little, and although her voice was low, but it was extremely clear and solemn,
“I promise you, as long as I am still alive, I will not deceive you and hide anything from you, I will not betray you, and I will not deliberately leave you.”
Yu Qingjia felt that something was not quite right after she finished those words, and hurriedly added,
“The premise is that you are not allowed to do things that are harmful to humans and animals.”
Yu Qingjia knew that Murong Yan was deceived and hunted down by his uncle.
This is why he had to leave his hometown.
Even if he didn’t say it, he must have been doubting the world in his heart.
Yu Qingjia is willing to tell him that there are still good people in the world, people who care, and would keep their word.
She wanted him to know that there is still goodwill and tolerance in other people’s hearts.
She promised to be on his side, until the day the two of them start their own families, and he no longer needed her.
Yu Qingjia didn’t know what her words meant for Murong Yan, just as he didn’t know that Yu Qingjia only regarded her words as an agreement between ordinary friends.
This time, Murong Yan actually showed a genuine smile, because of the smile, the end of his eyes slightly hooked up, making him look extremely charming and captivating to the extreme,
“Okay, you’re the one who said that.”
‘It was you who said that you were willing to stay by my side forever and not betray me.’
Yu Qingjia was frank when she promised it, but after seeing the teenager in front of her, she suddenly realized that this was not his father’s concubine, this was a teenage boy the same age as her.
She can always promise her female friends to never separate and never change her heart forever, but when it was uttered in front of a man…
Such words take on a different meaning altogether.
Yu Qingjia’s face flushed again, and she secretly peeked at Murong Yan.
She found that his eyes were crystal clear, the corners of his lips were hooked into a smile, and he was exuding satisfied joy all over his body.
However, that is simply a feeling of elation, like when you finally made a friend, finding something you like, etc..
It probably doesn’t have any other meaning.
Yu Qingjia silently said ‘Ah’ in her heart, feeling a little depressed for some reason.
She lowered her eyes, being all gloomy and depressed, when she suddenly felt someone flicked her forehead.
She covered her forehead and raised her head, and saw Murong Yan’s eyes were smiling at her, and there seemed to be something meaningful in his eyes,
“Remember what you said, you’re still hiding something from me.”
Yu Qingjia was stunned for a moment before it occurred to her that Murong Yan was talking about why she knew about Yu Qingya and the system.
She obviously learned about the existence of the system, because she died in her previous life.
Yu Qingjia suddenly remembered that she died in her previous life at the age of fifteen, if in this life she still failed to escape the system’s assassination and died because of an unknown poison, then when she died Murong Yan will still be in the prime of his youth.
Once he regains his identity in the future, marries a wife and has his own children, how will he still remember a young girl he met when he was young, and the ridiculous promise the two of them had made?
Yu Qingjia lowered her eyelashes, and after a moment, said in a low voice,
“Okay. But you have already hidden a lot of things from me, I also want to learn a secret. So the day you take the initiative to tell me your real name, I will tell you the real reason.”
If she could escape death in this life, and completely defeat Yu Qingya and the system, then when that day finally comes, she will be willing to tell him everything.
Murong Yan’s smile sank, and he suddenly remembered his unknown future.
If he was still the Prince of Langya, he could do whatever he wanted.
He could plunder, and play around with her, but now although he still had the title, the name of Prince Langya existed in name only.
‘… On the day when the Overlord was defeated in Wujiang, Consort Yu finally killed herself.1As mentioned on the first few chapters, the story have been talking about the Overlord Xiang Yu[項羽] and His Consort Yu [項羽], who was also known as the ‘Yu Beauty’. He became the overlord of the Chu dynasty and was defeated during the Chu-Han war. Consort Yu, hearing about his defeat, killed herself.’
