Editor: Misty Cloud TranslationsThinking back to how Yun Qi had left so gloomily just a moment ago, he decided he should find an opportunity to have a proper talk with her.
That night, Feng Jiu went to Yue’er’s room. Seeing her lying there listlessly, she smiled and asked, "What’s wrong? Didn’t Mother’s Truth Medicinal Pill work?"
"Mother," Yue’er called out, "I confessed my feelings to Master, but he told me he’s tired and needs to rest, and asked me to leave for now."
Hearing this, Feng Jiu paused for a moment, then chuckled softly. "He truly lives up to his reputation as the Azure Emperor. I never expected he could even suppress the potency of the Truth Medicinal Pill." She sat down at the table, looked at Yue’er, and smiled. " "Don’t be disappointed. Trust Mother’s judgment—the Azure Emperor still cares for you."
"Is that true?" Yue’er couldn’t help but look at her.
"It’s true." She gently pinched her nose and laughed. "When have I ever lied to you? Come, let me tell you the story of your Aunt Qianhua and Jun Jueshang."
And so, that night, the two of them chatted in the room until dawn...
The next day, when Yue’er stepped out, she felt refreshed and invigorated, her face radiating energy and determination. She had made up her mind: no matter what, she was the only one by her master’s side—and she would remain the only one. She refused to believe that, over the long years, her master could remain unmoved!
In the days that followed, the Azure Emperor watched her smile grow brighter day by day. Especially when she faced him, her radiant smile was just as it had always been, as if that day’s confession had never happened. Seeing this, he felt a strange unease. The words he had originally intended to speak to her were held back as he observed her peculiar demeanor.
It wasn’t until half a month later, when his health had gradually improved, that one evening, as he sat reading in the courtyard, she entered as usual, bustling about and keeping him company at the table.
He said, "Little Qi, I plan to return to Yunxiao Mountain."
"Then I’ll go back with you, Master," she replied immediately.
Hearing this, the Azure Emperor paused slightly. He held the book but had no heart to read; his mind was elsewhere. After a long while, he finally set the book down and looked at her. "Little Qi, you confessed your feelings to me that day."
"Yes, Master. It’s alright. Even if you don’t have feelings for me now, it’s alright. I’ll always be by your side. Besides, I won’t let any other woman come within a step of you. I..." Before she could finish, her hand was taken. For a moment, she froze, staring at him in shock.
"I’ll tell you now: as far back as my previous life, I’ve already placed you here." He took her hand and pressed it against his chest.
Yue’er’s eyes widened, her face frozen in astonishment.
Seeing her expression, the Azure Emperor actually laughed. "Overjoyed to the point of being speechless?"
"Master, you... you’re not lying to me? Are... are you confessing your feelings to me?" Yue’er asked, her voice trembling.
"Yes, I’m not lying. It’s true. I’ve always kept you in my heart. Long before I even realized it, you had already become an indispensable part of my life."
He looked at her and asked softly, "Little Qi, will you stay by my side forever?"
"Yes! I will! I will!" She joyfully rushed forward and hugged him tightly.
Azure Emperor also reached out to embrace her, savoring the feeling of her in his arms. After a moment, he said, "Let’s go tell your parents about us."
Yue’er laughed and said, "My parents left on a journey early this morning. They said they won’t interfere in our affairs; we can just tell them when we’re ready to marry in the future."
Hearing this, the Azure Emperor’s lips curved slightly. Taking her hand, he said, "Then let’s return to Yunxiao Mountain."
"Yeah." Yue’er gave a sweet smile, interlaced her fingers with his, and walked out with him.
The two figures walked side by side, their fingers intertwined. Laughter and conversation carried on the gentle breeze, faintly revealing their hopes for the future...
