PNB Chapter 77 Farewell
Chapter 77 Farewell
Shen Qing was speechless when she saw the packaged and delivered Lu Huanong. What kind of fate was this?
He couldn't help but admire Liang Yan. Lu Huanong was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in this world. He could give away such a stunning beauty so easily, which showed that he was someone who could enjoy beauty but would not be obsessed with it.
It is common for powerful and wealthy people to exchange concubines, but he is currently just an unknown nobody, and Liang Yan is willing to spend a lot of money to make a good relationship with him, which shows that his vision and perspective are extraordinary.
Beautiful women are also a resource. It's rare to see someone of Revlon's caliber. Most people would maximize the value of a gift, but Liang Yan only considers whether it's suitable or not. He's definitely not an ordinary person.
Revlon stood there somewhat awkwardly. She had left without saying goodbye before, and now she had come to him again. What was he supposed to think?
Fortunately, she had already prepared her words on the way here, and said softly, "Sanlang, you left without saying goodbye last time..."
"No need for further explanation, I believe Miss Lu must have some unspeakable difficulties."
"..." How considerate! I've wasted all my time thinking up lines. I can't help but blame the system for coming up with such a terrible idea!
[Who knew Liang Yan would act unpredictably? But it's not a big problem. Being close to Shen Qing gives him more opportunities to strike.]
"I wonder what Miss Lu's plans are for the future?"
Liang Yan abandoned the person, and Shen Qing couldn't very well go back. But what to do with him afterward was a problem. If he was taken back to the Shen family in Xuan State, either Li Su or Qin Zhen would definitely lose sleep.
"I have nowhere else to go, I only ask for a place to settle down."
Seeing Lu Hua's delicate and pitiful appearance, Shen Qing's chivalrous nature kicked in again. "Fine, I'll take her with me for now and see how things go."
After settling the Revlon, System 9527 popped into Shen Qing's mind.
This person doesn't seem friendly!
"how you said that?"
[Revlon is the host of Strategy System 5466. I only revealed myself yesterday, and she's already here today. What do you think is the reason?]
"It was sent because Liang Yan wanted to win me over. Is there a problem?"
[…] System 9527 discovered that Shen Qing was using all her cunning to guard against it, and was very naive towards everyone else.
[The strategy points for a single plane are limited, and the strategy points required to leave that world are so high that if there are too many players, there won't be enough to go around, and some hosts might even engage in vicious competition.]
"But I'm not bound to the system, and I don't do any strategy quests, so what's the point of competing?"
[...] What can it do? Can it say that it has already boasted about its achievements?
[A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime. The important thing is not whether you do it or not, but that you can do it anytime you want.]
Shen Qing nodded as if she understood. The fact that Lu Huanong's system could trick its host so badly showed that it was not a good thing and might really have the evil intention of nipping the threat in the bud.
"If it really attacks me, wouldn't that prove it's a ruthless and malicious system?"
Uh...every industry inevitably has a few bad apples, don't confuse me with them!
"I didn't say anything to you," Shen Qingxi rolled her eyes. "Do you still remember our bet?"
Which one?
"If Revlon is being coerced into doing this mission by the system, then you must grant me one request."
The system remembers, but how do we prove it? Should we just ask?
This matter isn't in such a hurry, but the wedding of Yu Jue and Ning Cuo is set for seven days from now, and Shen Qing has also received an invitation. For Marquis Wei Yun's status, this is indeed too hasty and too hasty.
With nothing to do today, Shen Qing went to the Yu residence on Dongcheng Street. The servants sent by Ning Cuo were busy decorating and preparing for the wedding, so they didn't notice Shen Qing quietly entering Yu Jue's room.
"Why is Sanlang here at this time?"
Shen Qing looked at Yu Jue, who was calmly preparing for her wedding, and saw no trace of the shyness or joy that a bride should have on her face.
"I've wanted to come for a while, but I just haven't had the chance."
Seeing Shen Qing's hesitant expression, Yu Jue said, "Does Sanlang think my marriage to Marquis Wei Yun is too sudden?"
Shen Qing nodded. "Cousin...is someone forcing you?"
It's no wonder Shen Qing thinks that way. Yu Jue and Fang Fan are childhood sweethearts, and she has personally witnessed their affectionate relationship. How could Yu Jue have moved on and fallen for someone else so quickly after only a few days?
Yu Jue sighed softly, "I know what Sanlang is thinking, but life is full of disappointments..."
"So we must make the most of the remaining one or two things. Cousin, don't do anything you'll regret."
In this era, marriage truly is a lifelong commitment. A man's infatuation can be explained, but a woman's infatuation cannot.
Shen Qing could roughly guess why Yu Jue wanted to marry Marquis Wei Yun, not wanting her to regret it in the future.
“Sanlang…” Yu Jue thought his heart was as hard as stone, but he couldn’t help but shed tears in the face of sincere concern.
“You are still young. When you have the responsibility to support a family or become an official, you may understand how insignificant personal feelings are.”
Shen Qing was stunned and speechless. Looking back on his past and present lives, he realized that there were always people carrying the burden for him. Even though he became a movie star in his previous life, since his brother was the main investor, he didn't have to go through any scheming and intrigue. His agent often said that he was too naive.
Aside from the unexpected gender-bending incident, his two successful lives prevented him from truly understanding Yu Jue's feelings.
Shen Che's mission in Yu Kingdom has been completed, and he will set off to return to Xuan Kingdom in three days. Shen Qing's main purpose in coming this time is to confirm Yu Jue's situation again, so that if she is being forced into marriage, he can find a way to save her.
“Cousin, I will be leaving Yuguo in three days, so I won’t be able to attend your wedding.” Shen Qing took out a small wooden box. “I’m sending this gift in advance. I wish you a peaceful and joyful life.”
Yu Jue reached out and took it, bowed and thanked him, "We have only known each other for a short time, but I have received a lot of help from San Lang. I will remember this kindness in my heart."
“Cousin, there’s no need for that. There’s only so much I can do,” Shen Qing said, taking a piece of paper from her sleeve and handing it to Yu Jue. “This is the address of the Shen family residence in Xuandu. It’s a long way, but if you don’t mind, we can correspond by letter.”
"That's excellent. Don't forget to write to me after you return home to let me know you're safe."
The two exchanged a smile, both knowing that this parting might be the last. The essence of human relationships lies in mutual understanding, and the depth of friendship cannot be measured by the length of time spent together.
After bidding farewell to Yu Jue, Shen Qing felt somewhat heavy-hearted. He could only console himself that having a pen pal meant he now had access to information from the upper echelons of Yu Kingdom.
Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated. This principle applies everywhere.
