Luo Li had never thought that Qin Chen who had always been cold and nonchalant could be so warm and caring.

“Qin’er, could you tell me what are you going to do?”

Feng Ruqing subconsciously held onto Qin Chen’s hand as she asked anxiously.

“I want to be stronger. I want to be very strong so that no one can hurt you anymore.” Qin Chen smiled.

Qin Chen did not want anyone to hurt Feng Ruqing or steal her happiness because… Feng Ruqing was the person dearest to him in this world!

“Qingqing, trust me. I am perfectly fine. No one can hurt me.” Qin Chen held onto Feng Ruqing’s hand tightly.

“You can cultivate when I’m not by your side?” Feng Ruqing stared at Qin Chen for a while before she said.

“Yeah.”

‘I can protect you one day. Not only your safety, I can protect everything that you want.’

“Alright, I trust you this time. Since you are in Tian Shen Manor, I will stay here too. No matter what happens, I will face it together with you.”

Since Qin Chen wanted to do something, all Feng Ruqing could do was to support and trust him. She would never stop him and she would do everything she could to help him.

Luo Li was standing behind both of them. Seeing this, she knew that it was not good to interrupt them. Hence, she decided to leave, silently. Just as she was about to leave, Feng Ruqing called out to her.

“Luo Li, today… thank you…”

“No, I should thank you instead. I just helped to get him out of the Qin family, but you had saved my grandmother.” Luo Li turned her head around with a smile on her face.

“Anyway, I want to thank you. I can’t get close to the Qin family yet. Fortunately, you helped me out.” Feng Ruqing turned her head slowly, her eyes were fixed on Qin Chen.

“Chen’er, If you want to meet me, you can come together with Luo Li.”

Dumbfounded, Qin Chen did not know why Feng Ruqing had said this.

Feng Ruqing held onto Qin Chen’s hands tightly. After all, she could not tell Qin Chen that he might be her biological brother.

It was just Feng Ruqing and Jiu Ming’s guess. Simply no one knew if that was true. Currently, she could not give Qin Chen so much hope.

Hence, Feng Ruqing wanted to look into it more, starting with the Qin family. Naturally, she could not let the people in the Qin family know the relationship between Qin Chen and herself…

“Chen’er,” Feng Ruqing called out to Qin Chen once again.

“Alright, I will meet you together with her.” Qin Chen pursed his lips. He could never reject Feng Ruqing.

Hearing this, Luo Li was overjoyed as she could meet Feng Ruqing frequently in the future.

“Also… give my hairpin back to me.” Feng Ruqing paused for a while and stretched her hand out.

Qin Chen was dumbfounded.

“I know it was you who took it… That jade hairpin was given to me by Nan Xian. It was a gift from Suyi. They came in a pair. I could give you something else if you want.”

In fact, Feng Ruqing did not know that the jade hairpin actually belonged to the white phoenix. The white phoenix had nicked it from a master but Nan Xian had taken it away from the white phoenix together with other treasures and gave them all to Feng Ruqing.

Nan Xian had even told Feng Ruqing that it was a gift from his mother. Hence, Feng Ruqing had no idea that the jade hairpin belonged to the white phoenix.

“You never wear other hairpins beside this.” Qin Chen merely frowned.

“Chen’er,” Feng Ruqing said, helplessly.

Qin Chen could not help but take out the jade hairpin and hand it over to Feng Ruqing reluctantly.

Feng Ruqing broke into a smile.

Standing nearby, Luo Li’s dazed face changed. A look of disbelief and shock crept into her eyes.

‘Wait, what did I just hear? Nan Xian?’
