Chapter 287 The World of Amnesia 1
"What exactly do you want?" Qingyu asked, frowning.
Long Aoyu gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't apologize to me today, don't even think about leaving."
Qingyu was furious and immediately sneered, "Young Master Long, instead of arguing with me here, you should think about what to do about the marriage agreement, the family fortune, and your cultivation. After all, your current status as a good-for-nothing doesn't warrant my apology."
Her attitude was arrogant, her tone disdainful, yet her voice was pleasant to the ear. Long Aoyu wanted to be angry, but he just couldn't muster any anger.
Do I really feel so worthless that this person looks down on me so much?
He remained silent with a cold face, which was really taking up Qingyu's time. Just as he was thinking about whether to use force to resolve this trouble, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly came from afar. Then, a woman in red appeared gracefully on horseback.
The woman in red dismounted gracefully, displaying a heroic and dashing demeanor.
Her gaze swept over everyone, finally settling on Qingyu, a look of inquiry and surprise in her eyes.
Clearly, she knew Qingyu.
"But Miss Song? Young Master Long is in a bad mood today and has offended us. I hope Miss Song will forgive him."
Qingyu raised an eyebrow, surprised that this woman would stand up for Long Aoyu. She seemed to remember seeing this woman before, but couldn't quite place her. She immediately asked, "And who are you?"
"Silky clouds."
The three words sent a chill down Qingyu's spine, and the others also realized what was happening, whispering amongst themselves.
It turns out she was the female protagonist who broke off the engagement.
“This Miss Yun grew up in the sect, no wonder I’ve never seen her before. Her temperament is extraordinary, she is indeed not worthy of Long Aoyu.”
"Of course, don't you even know how deep Miss Yun's cultivation is? I, at the Foundation Establishment stage, can't even see through her cultivation level!"
"Really? Miss Yun is only sixteen years old this year, right?!"
……
The chatter in the crowd didn't subside. As Long Aoyu listened to these words and looked at his fiancée, whom he had never met before, his resentment grew stronger and stronger.
Yun Sisi is indeed outstanding, both in appearance and cultivation, but she is not an unknown person either, and she will surely achieve something in the future!
But this woman in front of him wanted to break off the engagement when he was down on his luck!
Thinking of this, Long Aoyu began to release a chilling aura, becoming extremely cold.
Qingyu's brow twitched slightly, realizing that the Yun family's annulment of the engagement was becoming increasingly murky.
The system was still frantically calling out, but Qingyu, though unable to hear it, suddenly had a flash of inspiration and smiled gently at Yun Sisi, saying, "Since Miss Yun has pleaded for leniency, then let's drop this matter."
Having said that, he gestured to the driver to continue on their way.
This time, no one stopped them.
As Yun Sisi watched the departing carriage, she was still savoring the unique aura that Qingyu had exuded. Every move she made seemed to possess an innate elegance that made it impossible to look away.
She had heard of this Song Qingyu, but unfortunately she couldn't see her face. However, given her high cultivation level, she must be quite beautiful.
After a moment, she shook off those thoughts, turned to look at Long Aoyu, her gaze complex.
He has absolutely no cultivation. Yun Sisi's fiancé can't possibly be a good-for-nothing!
"Long Aoyu, stop acting rashly. Revitalizing the family is the best course of action."
She believed she was doing this for Long Aoyu's own good; although they couldn't be husband and wife, she was just trying to offer some helpful advice. Unexpectedly, the latter snorted coldly.
"I don't need your fake kindness, Yun Sisi. Since you've already broken off the engagement, why bother with this pretense?" Long Aoyu said with a gloomy expression.
Yun Sisi frowned slightly. She was straightforward by nature, and hearing Long Aoyu's impolite words, a hint of anger rose in her heart. "Long Aoyu, don't be ungrateful. If it weren't for our past engagement, I wouldn't care about you."
Long Aoyu sneered, "Hmph, Yun Sisi, one day I will make you regret what you did today." After saying that, Long Aoyu glanced at the Yun family not far away, his eyes deep, and then turned and left.
Yun Sisi watched Long Aoyu's retreating figure and gently shook her head.
She knew that Long Aoyu harbored resentment, but she never regretted her actions.
She had been a favored daughter of heaven since childhood and had never thought much of Long Aoyu before. If it weren't for her grandfather's insistence on the marriage and her focus on cultivation, she would have already caused a scene.
Now that Long Aoyu is crippled, her cultivation level is also rising, so she naturally dislikes this marriage even more. She will be going to the secret realm soon, which will be a good time to resolve this marriage and ease her mind.
On the other side, Qingyu sat in the carriage and let out a long sigh of relief.
For some reason, seeing Long Aoyu made her feel inexplicably irritated, and she even wanted to go up and hit him.
But she considered herself a lady and would never do such a thing.
At this moment, the maid suddenly whispered, "Miss, aren't we going to Baozhen Pavilion this time?"
Qingyu then remembered her other purpose for going out this time—
The old lady of the manor is about to celebrate her birthday. Now, due to the cultivation of immortality, people's lifespan has been increased, and most people can live to be over a hundred years old. I plan to use my private savings to buy longevity pills to celebrate the old lady's birthday.
But now, Qingyu's lips curled into a barely perceptible smile. She lowered her eyes, looked lost and sad, and touched her forehead, appearing frail and delicate. "My head is spinning... You were just like that too, suddenly disappearing, and I got caught in the crossfire."
After saying that, she gave the maid a resentful glare, which made the maid feel a mix of guilt and excitement.
She wasn't Qingyu's original maid; she was someone else from the household who had come to keep watch. But now, looking at Qingyu, the maid inexplicably didn't want to hurt her anymore, and even wanted to tell the truth.
Has she gone mad?
"Miss..." The maid opened her mouth, but ultimately said nothing.
Qingyu had already sensed something was wrong. Thinking of her mother's subtle reminder before she left, it seemed that this maid was indeed problematic.
But her mind wasn't on that right now; she was only thinking about resolving the matter of the old lady's birthday gift.
"Never mind, let's just go back to the manor." Qingyu leaned against the carriage and closed her eyes to rest.
As soon as Qingyu entered the mansion, she felt a sense of oppression.
A moment later, a nanny came forward to lead the way and whispered to Qingyu the reason. It turned out that her father had heard about what was happening outside and felt that Qingyu had disgraced the Song family.
A hint of fierceness flashed between Qingyu's brows. Her mother was a concubine, with low cultivation and not favored. Her father usually didn't care about her either. Come to think of it, she could count the number of times she had seen her father on one hand.
The old woman was from the mother's courtyard and had naturally seen Qingyu before. Seeing that Qingyu was not speaking, she became anxious and gritted her teeth, saying, "Miss, if not, you can put all the blame on me and say that I lured you out of the manor."
How could her beautiful young lady bear being scolded and punished?
