Chapter 1147 - 1146: I’ve Waited for You for Three Days and Nights

The man’s words were too passionate, too fervent.

It’s a pity she wouldn’t be able to hear them much longer...

Qin Xin’s consciousness gradually began to scatter, strange scenes started to appear in her mind.

Vaguely, she saw herself as a very young child, chasing after a cold and aloof young boy:

"Brother, brother, wait for me..."

"Brother, don’t ignore me, I’ll be good and obedient, okay?"

"Brother, smile for me, won’t you..."

The young boy remained cold and indifferent, silent and unspeaking.

She couldn’t help but quicken her steps to catch up, grabbing his sleeve, wanting to see who this young boy was.

But because her little short legs were moving too quickly, she stumbled, falling to the ground, her lotus-like arms crashing down.

Just as she was about to fall miserably, the young boy in front suddenly stopped, swiftly picking up her small body: "Fool..."

Called an idiot, Qin Xin was stunned.

That young boy...

Wasn’t that Nalan Ye Jue when he was young?

If you rewind a decade or so, that would be how Nalan Ye Jue looked in his youth.

She first met him when she was six years old.

Before that, she had never seen him.

So...

The three-year-old girl in her mind... wasn’t her, but Lan Qingxin!

Yet her current perspective was identical to Lan Qingxin’s perspective.

Heavens, she never expected that at the final moment of her life, on the brink of death, she would see the scene of another girl admiring her own man... Ah, this feeling.

Truly dying without closure...

"Little lady, don’t fall asleep. I’m taking you home right away."

"The best doctors, the best medicine, I will surely save you."

"You have to hold on, think of our wedding, we haven’t completed it yet, we haven’t consummated our marriage or had children..."

"Little lady, don’t sleep..."

Nalan Ye Jue’s voice grew increasingly distant, increasingly faint, until it was no longer audible.

Back garden of the Nalan Family’s mansion.

The winter night’s starry sky was dazzling, the sub-zero temperatures made people shiver incessantly.

Lu Yi held a lantern, helplessly leaning against a pillar, rubbing his hands, occasionally stomping his feet, trying to warm himself a bit.

No choice, those three suddenly descended masters, refuse to leave, insisting that Mr. Emperor and Miss Qin, the little miss, would emerge from underground.

He had to keep watch with them for the one in ten thousand chance.

Lu Yi couldn’t help but glance again at Ao Xinghao, Si Moyu, and Bai Chi.

He suspected these three had mental issues, but he didn’t dare to say—

They couldn’t even agree on whether Mr. Emperor and Miss Qin were together or if it was with Lan Qingxin. Is their brain broken?

Moreover, when the three of them appeared in the garden at the same time, they were wearing summer short sleeves, draped with strange black robes, gosh, they really seemed crazy.

The point is, the three of them had been missing for almost a year!

When asked where they returned from, they became mute and unwilling to say anything; so, they weren’t really back from the mental hospital?

Lu Yi saw them pitifully standing in the garden day and night, it had already been three days and nights, afraid they would be frozen by the cold weather, he instructed the servants to bring thick cotton robes for them to wear.

Bai Chi even specifically asked for a quilt to wrap around himself.

But even with frost forming on their eyebrows, none of them mentioned leaving.

They persisted stubbornly.

Just as Lu Yi was struggling to stay awake, his eyelids fighting against sleep.

Suddenly, he heard Bai Chi crying and shouting—

"I’ve waited for you for three days and three nights, sob sob!"
