"Can you stay for a moment, just keep me company?" Hong Luan seemed to murmur in her sleep, yet it felt like a gentle plea.
Qin Han's expression was somewhat dazed, but he quickly snapped out of it and withdrew his hand.
He no longer indulged in the lingering warmth, nor the feelings his body evoked when near an old friend.
It indeed induced a great electric current that paralyzed his entire body, making him feel his soul tremble deeply.
Qin Han felt a severe tremor in his Martial Artist's heart and hurriedly pulled out three Golden Needles from his waist, inserting them into his arm.
Only after this feeling was thoroughly relieved did he breathe a sigh of relief.
Originally, Qin Han wanted to flee hastily away.
But he knew that before heading to Kunlun Mountain, he had to make things clear with Hong Luan.
Otherwise, given her mischievous nature, she would certainly flirt with danger.
Hong Luan turned her face in her sleep, turning away.
She seemed unaware of what had transpired earlier, as if it was just an action in a nightmare.
Qin Han's voice echoed from the doorway: "I love Song Yuwei deeply, and I also love Dio. We are about to have our own child."
"She is willing to forsake everything for me, so how could I betray her?"
"Moreover, I have long made an important decision: after dealing with the Eternal Life Hall Master, I will introduce you to an outstanding young man among those I know and bring you together."
"I hope to witness you find true love in your most beautiful years, meet a husband who loves you, and exchange vows in the sacred world of marriage."
"Maybe in the future, when you have children, we can leave the trifles of the Holy Medicine Sect's martial world behind and take them for spring outings."
"Such a life is the future that those of us at the pinnacle of the martial world should yearn for."
"And even among the silly boys in the courtyard, there are some with quite a good character."
"You are my sister, so I hope to take on the role of your brother and take care of your major life events."
Having said this, Qin Han closed the door and went downstairs.
However, halfway down, he leaned against the wall for a while.
With his head on the wall, he gazed at the chandelier on the ceiling, lost in thought.
In the study, however, after he left, Hong Luan opened her eyes.
The light in her bright eyes was tinged with regret, clearly showing that she was not asleep earlier, merely resting.
But the effort to change her place in Qin Han's heart was in vain, and she couldn't cross that line of relationship.
Hong Luan's heart was filled with mixed emotions, but given the situation, she could only murmur, "How can those hidden martial families compare to you even a little?"
"Perhaps they are only fit to be friends, but never could they be the men chosen by me, Hong Luan."
"Qin Han, it's a pity, you're so dazzling that my eyes can't hold anyone else."
"I'm sorry, I can never be your sister. Maybe after this journey to Kunlun Mountain, including the final battle between the Holy Medicine Sect and the Eternal Life Hall, it's time for me to leave you all and seek my new life."
Hong Luan's words lingered softly in the room, carrying decades of thoughts.
In the living room, Dark Dragon, Zhong Yuanliang, Dugu Wushang, and Feng Lingdu were animatedly chatting.
Meanwhile, Jiang Qing watched the table full of sumptuous dishes, pleased to see everyone enjoying them so much.
Her heart was filled with joy, after all, who wouldn't like their cooking to receive such recognition?
Especially at her age, she could no longer attend to any issues concerning the Qin family.
All she could do was spend time with the children and help out in any way she could.
For instance, taking care of everyone was all her frail, scarred body, plagued by the Three Yin Extreme Veins, could manage.
Dark Dragon seemed to notice everyone was engrossed in the conversation, leaving Jiang Qing to the side, and apologized, "Madam, so sorry!"
"Today, all of us were delighted by Mr. Qin's sudden insight, bringing unexpected benefits to our training."
"They were so excited they couldn't help but boast about it at the dining table."
"Today's food is still delicious, especially this sweet and sour fish, they've been talking so much they didn't dare eat it, worried about getting a fishbone stuck."
At Dark Dragon's words, Jiang Qing replied with a laugh, "It's no fuss, with so many things in the Hanwei Group, I'm often waiting for Yu Wei."
"Thus, I've gotten used to listening to you young folks talk about these new things at the dining table, lest I, this old woman, fall behind the times."
Song Yuwei, having returned from the Group, had some matters to discuss with Qin Han.
After freshening up, she came to the table, but he hadn't come down yet.
Fortunately, everyone reassured her that Qin Han had gained new martial insights.
This caused some unusual phenomena, making the surroundings very suitable for Martial Artist cultivation.
This allowed Song Yuwei to be at ease, confident that her husband wasn't straying in his cultivation.
Song Yuwei laughed and said, "Mom, don't worry. With your ageless face, I'm sure you'll be able to hear the words of your grandchildren too."
"Our place in the Northwest is already lively, not to mention once the Six Families' issues are settled, and Qin Han deals with the Holy Medicine Sect's troubles."
"I believe in a few years we will all have children, who will join us at the big dining table, making it a joyous family affair."
"At that time, Mom, don't mind the noise! If anyone dislikes the food made by the nannies and chefs we hired, then let those daughters-in-law help out, and we'll assist you together!"
Jiang Qing was delighted by Song Yuwei's words, and her slightly tired face glowed with vitality.
At the dining table, everyone was quite adept at seizing the moment, openly discussing the future.
