Chapter 148: Beast Instinct

Hongzhuang's answer made Yan Qing lose his temper, so he had to take the two of them back to Shanhai Residence.

Except for some missing ornaments, the layout in the middle of the mountains and seas is based on the original decorations in the capital, and they are exactly the same.

The moment she stepped into the yard, it was like returning to the place where she had been for many years.

I don't know whether it was the familiar environment that made me feel at ease, or the care of my relatives that warmed my heart, or maybe I was really tired from the journey. After taking a shower, Yan Qing felt particularly sleepy, fell into a deep sleep, and woke up to the sunset.

At sunset.

As soon as he opened his eyes, Yan Qing saw Qing Yi sitting on the footrest of the bed, lying on the bed, her head resting on her arms, slightly tilted, her eyes closed, sleeping soundly.

The dim yellow light fell and sprinkled the room with gold, making her hair look matted and fluffy.

Yan Qing moved his sore and numb hands, and then realized that his hand was held by Qing Yi, and was currently pillowed under his head.

As soon as she moved, Qing Yi woke up immediately.

The fine eyelashes suddenly opened like a feather fan, and the brown eyes were filled with moisture, with a bit of mist after waking up, but when they touched Yan Qing's eyes, they suddenly lit up.

Yan Qing, who thought she had just slept all afternoon, knew that she had probably overslept when she looked like this.

"How long have I been asleep?"

Yan Qing asked. As soon as he opened his mouth, he felt dryness in his throat, and his voice was slightly hoarse.

"one day."

Qing Yi answered, tilted her head and thought for a moment, counted on her fingers, and corrected, "One and a half days."

That means I slept from noon yesterday until sunset today.

It had indeed been a long time, but she hadn't had a single dream and was sleeping deeply.

Hongzhuang heard the commotion in the outside room, opened the curtain and came in, followed by a nanny, who was next to the old lady, her surname was Zhang.

"Old slave, you came at the right time."

Nanny Zhang said with a smile, holding a porcelain urn in her hand, "Miss has been sleeping for a long time, I am afraid she is hungry. The old lady asked someone to stew the white fungus soup. She originally let it simmer on the stove to wake up the lady.

It’s just a coincidence that we can have something hot to eat.”

Seeing a stranger come in, Yan Qing was stunned for a moment. When she heard Nanny Zhang talking about the old lady, she remembered that she was now in the North, not in the capital.

It can be seen that there is still something wrong with changing the location without changing the furnishings.

After washing up, Yan Qing sat at the table and sipped the white fungus soup. The sweet soup and soft stewed white fungus melted in the mouth and were sweet to the heart.

"The madam said she didn't like it too sweet, so she didn't add a lot of sugar."

Grandma Zhang watched Yan Qing finish the soup and then asked, "Does it suit Miss's taste?"

Yan Qing nodded, smiled back, and asked, "Have grandma and mother had dinner?"

"It's already been used."

Grandma Zhang put away the bowls and spoons while saying, "The old lady said that Miss has been tired these days and the weather is cold, so she should take a rest without thinking about her. Miss fell into a deep sleep this time, and it is not appropriate to just wake up.

You were too full after eating all at once, so the old lady asked the kitchen staff to cook porridge for you. You can use more if you are hungry in the evening."

Yan Qing nodded in response: "I'm sorry for my grandmother's concern."

"Miss, what you said made me angry."

Nanny Zhang said this with a smile, then stood up and left, "The old lady is still waiting for me to reply, so I won't disturb the young lady's rest."

"Mommy, walk slowly."

Yan Qing wanted to send Nanny Zhang to the door, but she was stopped by Nanny Zhang, "Miss, please stay."

Seeing this, Yan Qing didn't insist and just asked Hongzhuang to escort Nanny Zhang out of Shanhaiju.

After Nanny Zhang left, Yan Qing stretched out her hand to push Qing Yi who was leaning next to her, nodding her head like a chicken pecking at rice.

Qing Yi opened her hazy eyes and looked at her.

"Sleepy?"

Yan Qingming knew the reason and asked.

Qing Yi nodded honestly.

"Go and rest if you feel sleepy."

Yan Qing chased people away.

Qing Yi's eyes immediately widened, she tightened Yan Qing's hand and shook her head repeatedly.

"I have something to talk to Yan Qi."

Yan Qing rubbed her little head and said, "Go and rest first, okay?"

Qing Yi muttered and stared at Yan Qing eagerly for a moment, then reluctantly let go of Yan Qing's hand and went to the side room behind the inner room.

Seeing Qing Yi moving to the side room with one step and three turns, Yan Qing shook his head helplessly.

When we first came down the mountain, the little girl had to be dragged by her to fall asleep.

After four years of raising her, they finally slept in separate rooms, but this time they were separated for too long, and the girl shrank back again, and she had to be seen to sleep.

I don’t know when this girl will be truly independent.

It's not an option to stick to yourself like this all the time.

The days that followed became increasingly difficult, and it was impossible for me to be able to carry her with me all the time like before.

But Yan Qing really has no good way, he can only take it one step at a time and take his time.

Seeing that Qing Yi had fallen asleep, Yan Qing got up and went to the study.

She is not afraid that Qing Yi will know something, but she is afraid that Qing Yi and Yan Qi will be extremely jealous when their enemies meet.

As for how they formed this feud, Yan Qing has never really figured it out. He only knows that when Qing Yi is around, as long as Yan Qi gets closer, Qing Yi will immediately find him, and then the two may fight.

The reason why it is possible mainly depends on whether she is there or not.

With her around, Qing Yi would usually not take action unless Yan Qi showed up.

Yan Qi's concealment skills are excellent. If he didn't get within ten steps, it would be difficult for Yan Qing to detect Yan Qi's existence.

But as long as Yan Qi appears within a hundred meters, he will definitely be discovered by Qing Yi.

She once asked Qing Yi how he discovered Yan Qi, but she only got two words - intuition.

I don’t know if this answer aroused Yan Qi’s desire to win, so for a long time, the two of them were like children playing hide and seek, one hiding and the other searching.

Yan Qi has never won, so he has never given up.

I don’t know if this kind of behavior annoyed Qing Yi. Previously, when he found Yan Qi, he would just look at Qing Yi and forget about it, and started hunting.

But Yan Qi was good at Qinggong, and Qing Yi never caught him.

This really made Yan Qi feel proud, but made Qing Yi unhappy.

However, compared to saying that this aroused Qing Yi's desire to win, Yan Qing was more inclined to Yan Qi's behavior, which awakened Qing Yi's hunting instinct that had not completely faded away.

Therefore, for the sake of his own purity, Yan Qing generally would not let these two people meet.

In the study, Yan Qing asked about the arrangements of Yan Qi's Anbu people in northern Xinjiang, and also inquired about news from the west and south. His somewhat relaxed mind tightened his strings again.

Things in the south were beyond her reach now, so she could only get some information just in case, but she couldn't actually help much.
