Chapter 1594: 1594 Saw Qinghe again

"Is that so," Gongsun Yanli said playfully, the corners of his lips curling up, "I happen to think you and my sister are quite well-matched."

To say he wanted to play matchmaker, his breathtakingly beautiful face was paired with an inscrutable smile. To say he wasn’t interested in doing so, he had already started talking again.

The minds of men truly are as unfathomable as needles at the bottom of the sea.

Su Qingyue gazed at his smiling face, momentarily entranced.

"Brother Su?" Gongsun Yanli’s voice was tinged with a gentle teasing, "Why are you distracted?"

Su Qingyue was momentarily stupefied by his voice, "I cannot deny that Brother Gongsun is the most beautiful man I have seen in this life, as well as my last."

Despite the compliment, a flash of displeasure crossed Gongsun Yanli’s face, "Men should not be described as beautiful."

"Brother Gongsun is even more beautiful than a woman," Su Qingyue replied idly, toying with his cup, "Rather than saying I’m well-matched with your sister, it’s better to say I’m well-matched with you."

"You!" Gongsun Yanli frowned in displeasure, "I certainly don’t have a taste for the same sex."

"You might not, but that doesn’t mean I don’t," Qingyue’s tone was indifferent, and one couldn’t really tell if he was serious.

"Brother Su, you really do say the most interesting things," Gongsun Yanli’s displeasure gradually dissipated, "You say ’in this life and the last,’ do you remember things from your last life as well?"

"If I had seen a beautiful person like you in my last life, then surely I would remember," Su Qingyue said noncommittally.

"Hehe..." Gongsun Yanli burst into open laughter.

Su Qingyue’s gaze inadvertently drifted to the street, where a strikingly handsome young man was seated in a wheelchair, pushed respectfully by a manservant behind him.

The young man in the wheelchair had a refined and handsome countenance, his eyes held a detached clarity hinting at world-weariness, draped in a simple but graceful blue silk robe.

More than five years had passed, and he was no longer the boy-next-door he had been when they first met, now more mature.

...Xiao Qinghe.

The man who carried a sense of guilt in her heart.

Having received word that he would be entering the capital city precisely around this time, she estimated he would pass by this location, so...

She couldn’t help but come.

In this vast world, Qinghe would never know she was in the capital city.

Her identity could not be revealed.

Why would Qinghe be coming to the capital?

Based on her intelligence, someone knew she was in the capital but not her specific identity or exact whereabouts.

Thus, they purposely sent word to Qinghe, luring him to the city.

That person simply wished to draw her out by using Qinghe.

Regrettably for that person, they would be disappointed; she had no intention of revealing herself. Not unless, as she had previously thought, she found the last ingredient for the medicine to cure Qinghe.

In this bustling section of tea houses, she was on the second floor, and moreover, she was dressed as a man with her appearance altered; even if that person had vast powers, they could not possibly discover her.

Gongsun Yanli followed ’his’ gaze and saw a man in a wheelchair passing by on the street below, "Brother Su, do you know that man whose legs are disabled?"

"I do not," Su Qingyue said indifferently.

"Then why stare at him?" Gongsun Yanli spoke with a hint of amusement in his voice, "Could it be because he is good-looking as well?"

"You guessed right," Su Qingyue withdrew his gaze, "Don’t you think that young Master has a visage inferior to yours, yet possesses a certain unique charm?"

"Do I?" Gongsun Yanli responded with a noncommittal shrug.

After a while, once Xiao Qinghe was out of sight, Su Qingyue stood up, ready to leave, only to see Gongsun Qianru ascending to the second floor; the seated customers in the hall immediately stirred, "Wow, such a beautiful woman!"
