People in the Qin Dynasty sought good fortune and avoided misfortune.

Chapter 490, Fei Yan's heart is in turmoil, Jing Ni takes the initiative (Bonus chapter, please vote!)

Xu Qing was surprised by Fei Yan's words, and a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

He suspected that Feiyan was flirting with him, but he had no evidence. Besides, how could a cold and aloof girl from the Yin Yang School possibly flirt with someone on her own initiative? Unless she wanted to cast a Six Souls Curse on him.

"It is my great honor to have Miss Feiyan's trust," Xu Qing said with a smile.

Fei Yan's eyes flickered slightly, and her nose wrinkled slightly, as if she was dissatisfied with Xu Qing's answer.

Her purpose in approaching Xu Qing was to get closer to him, not just to chat idly. She wanted to uncover the secrets behind Xu Qing, otherwise it would be difficult for her to get close to him again once the Moon Goddess returned to Xianyang.

"Don't you believe me?" Fei Yan asked.

"Of course I believe it. My teacher once said that the more beautiful a girl is, the less you can trust her. But I don't think so. Beautiful people and things often bring danger, and only by experiencing danger can you understand how hard-won that beauty is."

"To die under the peony is to be a romantic ghost, so I will always believe in Miss Feiyan, even if it costs me my life."

Seeing Fei Yan being so proactive, Xu Qing naturally wouldn't hold back and used his ingrained sweet talk techniques.

Fei Yan's breathing quickened slightly. These sudden words, which sounded like a declaration of love, caught her off guard. Xu Qing was usually a very proper person on Taiyi Mountain, and while he could be humorous at times, he would never be this bold.

Although these words were bold, they were also exceptionally pleasant to hear. Moreover, facing Xu Qing's earnest and sincere gaze, Fei Yan pursed her lips, unsure of how to respond, and her heart skipped a beat.

Faced with the advances of Xu Qing, a seasoned player in the game of love, it would be a lie to say that Fei Yan's heart was not in turmoil.

The Yin-Yang School teaches killing and Yin-Yang techniques, but has never taught about matters between men and women. This extraordinary woman from the Yin-Yang School is only seventeen or eighteen years old. Even if she is mature in mind, how mature can she be in matters of the heart?

"I was a bit presumptuous, please forgive me, Miss Feiyan," Xu Qing said apologetically.

A real man will never let a woman feel awkward in a conversation, so he will take the initiative to change the subject when necessary to keep the conversation going.

“I don’t mean to blame you. Trust is the foundation of our cooperation,” Fei Yan said, shaking her head.

She really didn't know what to say to Xu Qing anymore, her mind still completely immersed in the shock brought by Xu Qing's words just now, so she could only continue the conversation by following Xu Qing's topic.

"My cooperation with Miss Moon Goddess in Nanyang was just a simple agreement; the specifics haven't been discussed yet. If Miss Feiyan isn't busy, how about we go to Wanfu Restaurant for lunch and chat tomorrow at noon?"

Seeing that Feiyan had settled into her own rhythm, Xu Qing extended an invitation.

Feiyan must have come to Xianyang for Ji Dan. Xu Qing couldn't bear to see such a good girl being deceived by a scumbag like Ji Dan again.

Although he's not a good person, he's devoted to his love. If he falls for a girl, he'll always love her and he would never take advantage of her.

Fei Yan glanced up at Xu Qing, her eyes showing a hint of hesitation.

After returning to Xianyang from Taiyi Mountain, she began to monitor Ji Dan. Through intentional and unintentional contact, she would soon find an opportunity to use Yin-Yang magic on him. If she were to meet Xu Qing tomorrow, she would have to revise her original plan.

On one hand, there was her personal matter of getting close to Xu Qing; on the other hand, there was a major matter concerning the future of the Yin-Yang School entrusted to her by His Excellency Donghuang.

Putting the two together, Fei Yan naturally knew the relative importance of each. After hesitating for a moment, she nodded and said...
"it is good."

He approached Xu Qing and discussed with him how to eliminate Lü Buwei and bring the Yin-Yang School into Qin. This was a major event concerning the future of the Yin-Yang School, and also an even more urgent matter.

Dongjun Feiyan naturally knew which was more important and which was less, and needed no one else to question her.

"In that case, we'll meet again tomorrow. I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now," Xu Qing said with a smile. Fei Yan nodded slightly, her gaze still fixed on Xu Qing's face, lost in thought.

Xu Qing took a step back, bowed slightly, and then walked outside.

Watching Xu Qing's departing figure, a glint of light flashed in Fei Yan's eyes, and she suddenly asked...

"Xu Qing, do you know your junior sister's name?"

Xu Qing turned to look at Fei Yan with a puzzled expression. Although she didn't understand why Fei Yan asked that question, she still answered truthfully.
"I don't know, is there a problem?"

Upon hearing this, Fei Yan's lips curled up slightly, and a smile appeared on her cold and noble face. It was like a snow lotus flower that suddenly bloomed on a high and cold snow peak. It was so beautiful, holy and noble that everything in the world seemed to pale in comparison to this smile.

"nothing."

Feiyan's smile came and went quickly, and her expression returned to its calm state.

Xu Qing withdrew his gaze, nodded to him, and then turned to continue walking outside.

"Don't you know her name? It seems your relationship with your junior sister isn't as close as I thought."

Fei Yan watched Xu Qing's retreating figure, a smile playing on her lips once more, her eyes gleaming.

It seems she hasn't completely lost yet. She must take advantage of the Moon Goddess's absence to quickly build a closer relationship with Xu Qing, otherwise it will be too late when the Moon Goddess returns.

After all, she was still looking forward to seeing the Moon Goddess cry, and her sister, who was so eager to compete with her, deserved some punishment.

Thinking of this, Fei Yan thought of her mission to get close to Ji Dan and extract the secrets of the Seven Constellations of the Azure Dragon, and her brows furrowed slightly.

"Forget it, let's try using the Nine Palaces Soul Transfer Technique to see if we can get any information out of him. If that doesn't work, then I'll cast the Six Soul Terror Curse to make him die in an accident after leaving Qin," Fei Yan thought to herself.

A woman's heart isn't big. Once a man has aroused all her curiosity and desire to explore, she will feel that other men are superfluous, especially those who are not as good as the first man.

After Xu Qing's figure completely disappeared, Fei Yan's figure also disappeared in the courtyard.

After leaving Zhangtai Palace, Xu Qing returned to his residence by carriage. It was already dusk.

It had been more than a month since he left Xianyang, and his mansion had been completed. After returning to Xianyang, he and Yan Lingji and the others moved into the new mansion.

After getting off the carriage, Xu Qing went straight into the mansion.

When Xu Qing returned, the guards, servants, and maids all bowed respectfully, not daring to overstep their bounds in the slightest.

Led by a maid, Xu Qing, Yan Lingji, Jing Ni, and Tian Mi had dinner, and then went to the study alone to prepare for the lesson they would give to the medical family the next day.

An hour passed in the blink of an eye, and Xu Qing finished tidying everything up and put down the bamboo slips in his hand.

"Sigh, what a tough life."

Xu Qing stretched and looked at the bamboo slips with a helpless expression.

Just as Xu Qing was wondering whose room to stay in for the night, there was a knock on the study door, and Jing Ni, dressed in a metal combat suit, walked in.
