Chapter 525: Chapter 524 You are my Qin Yi’s lifelong pursuit!_1
Su Pan’er was just about to take a step when she saw Little Feng clutching a hot-water bottle, standing under the eaves and staring at her, his bulging eyes making her feel a chill down her spine.
Without a word, she turned and walked away.
Instead of leaving through the main door, she went to the corner of the wall, flipped her skirt, and was about to jump over the high wall.
Just then, a sigh was heard.
Before she could react, her small body fell into a warm, familiar embrace.
"I had a feeling you wouldn’t behave. I’m glad I didn’t trust my feeling and came to check on you; otherwise, where would I find you afterward?"
Feeling a bit dazed, Su Pan’er subconsciously extended her arms to embrace his sturdy waist and blinked, "Qin Yi, is it really you? Did... did you come?"
"If it’s not me, who else could it be!"
Qin Yi wrapped her in his arms, gently ruffled her hair top, and said, "Let’s go, it’s colder outside, let’s go inside and talk!"
With that, he picked her up and went straight into the house.
"Qin Yi, what on earth happened?"
Back in the warm house, Su Pan’er quickly asked as he helped her remove her heavy clothes.
"What else could have happened but another assassination attempt on Young Master Zhao?"
Qin Yi helped her sit back on the bed, then helped her remove her shoes and socks, gently massaging her foot reflex zones.
Her feet were naturally small, with no traces of the binding that was in fashion among women. Her feet were crystal clear and soft, even the small toenails were of a tender light pink, which was particularly pleasing to the eye and irresistible to the touch.
"Young Master Zhao was already injured and was frightened yesterday, which worsened his injury. Naturally, he would want to hide. We planned to retreat at a critical moment, but we couldn’t find you. I had to leave some men to assist you. I was also afraid that those bandits would follow you and expose Young Master Zhao’s whereabouts. So, I came up with the idea of temporarily keeping you here..."
As he explained, he continued to massage her foot reflex zones in a leisurely manner.
He spoke lightly, glossing over the events of yesterday with a few words, but Su Pan’er still sensed a murderous aura from it!
"Then why did you come to find me? Aren’t you afraid of exposing Young Master Zhao’s whereabouts now?"
Su Pan’er curled her lips slightly.
"When I left, Young Master Zhao had already awoken."
He put down her foot, picked up the other one, and started massaging it diligently, "We’re going to stay here for another day and then head straight to the dock to board the ship tomorrow noon. That way, we won’t need to worry about exposing him."
Even though he spoke nonchalantly, Su Pan’er felt as if there were countless pairs of menacing eyes watching them around, and she couldn’t help but shiver.
"Don’t be scared, I won’t let anyone harm you!"
Qin Yi comforted her, and then, as if he had remembered something, curiously asked, "Right, that day, when we were buying roast sweet potatoes, I noticed something off about you. Did you spot the bandits then?"
Su Pan’er thought for a while, then realized what Qin Yi was talking about.
She didn’t want to bring up the topic initially, but after a short pondering, she decided to tell him about her conversation with Young Master Zhao.
"It wasn’t a big deal! That day, I had a chat with Young Master Zhao. We talked about you, he shared his thoughts and views about you..."
Su Pan’er told him about her conversation with Young Master Zhao that day and also conveyed her regret, "Qin Yi, did I hold you back? And hinder you from fully displaying your talents and achieving your ambitions?"
"What do you think?"
Qin Yi’s voice was particularly deep, staring at her to carefully observe her facial expression.
"I, I don’t know..."
Su Pan’er hesitated slightly, "But I’ve thought about it, what he said is right. You should do what you want to do, use your talents, and fulfill your ambitions. So that when we are old and gray, we won’t regret it..."
"You’re right! He’s also not wrong. One should act early to fulfill one’s ambitions so as to avoid future regrets."
Qin Yi nodded earnestly.
Su Pan’er slowly lowered her head and gently responded with an ’mm’.
The very next moment, Qin Yi reached out and lifted her chin, forcing her to look into his eyes.
"But, you haven’t asked what your husband thinks is his ambition?"
"So, what is your ambition?"
Su Pan’er blinked her eyes, feeling a dryness in them.
"The reason I want to serve as an official is because I understand a principle. In this world, if I, Qin Yi, am not powerful enough, I cannot provide you and our child with a stable and comfortable life. Stepping onto the official career path is just so that you can have a comfortable life!"
"If I have to choose between the career path of an official and you, without hesitation, I would choose you."
"Because you are my direction! You are my life’s pursuit, Qin Yi!"
"I, Qin Yi, am not one of those talented people, I have no grand ambition. I just want to take care of my wife and child!"
"Pan’er, if one day, I had to choose between you and displaying my talent and achieving my ambitions, undoubtedly, my choice will always be you. It can only be you!"
That night was cold with snow falling outside.
But the words this man spoke warmed Su Pan’er entirely.
She threw herself into his arms, crying like a child, uncontrollable.
"Don’t cry, Pan’er, don’t cry!"
Qin Yi repeatedly patted her back to comfort her, wiping away the tears from her eyes over and over again.
In the outer room, Little Feng silently hugged the quilt sitting at the head of the bed, quietly listening to the whispers between the couple, lost in her thoughts.
The next morning, Qin Yi woke up. As he was carefully preparing to get up, Su Pan’er who was lying next to him also woke up.
The Silver Frost Charcoal on the ground had extinguished, but with this warm embrace, Su Pan’er felt the room was as warm as spring.
She reached out and tightly held onto him.
Qin Yi, with a smile on his face, gently held her in his arms.
The two of them didn’t say anything, just cuddled in bed before slowly getting up to cook.
The two servant women who were chased away by Su Pan’er the previous night were nowhere to be found.
The couple didn’t mind it, as they held hands and made breakfast, eating it slowly. To Su Pan’er, having Little Feng as an additional presence did not hinder their passion.
After eating, they packed up their things and returned to their merchant ship.
The government employees who had surrounded the ship before had already left, leaving the merchant ship quite empty. The manager of the merchant team who was anxiously pacing back and forth on the deck, sighed with relief upon seeing Su Pan’er and Qin Yi.
"Thank heavens, both of you are safe. God really does have eyes!"
"We were lucky as well," responded Qin Yi casually.
"Lucky? I would say it’s more than just luck! With your skills, little brother, even becoming a martial arts champion wouldn’t be too far-fetched!"
As the manager of the merchant team was overly flattering, he went to the lengths of praising Qin Yi extravagantly! This also made Su Pan’er aware of what had transpired that day.
