Quick Wear: Oh no, the lady is running away with the ball again

Chapter 220 The Living Abandoned Empress of the Cold Palace X The Invading Unruly Buddhist Son 54

The luster of pearls and the clearness of jade complement each other, just like a bright moon hanging high in the clouds. Although it is very beautiful, it is still elegant.

"This hairpin is named Yuehua. I think only white jade best complements your temperament. White jade is flawless, just like how you appear in my heart. The pearls hanging on it are Persian pearls, which are the most intense and rich in color currently. I remember that you like pearls, and pearls symbolize perfection. I give this to you before our wedding. I hope we can grow old together."

When we grow old together, old age will make me resentful. This line comes from the Wei Feng, also known as the Book of Songs. It has a more widely known name, which is "Mang".

Yun Qian muttered to herself, thinking of the misery of her previous life. She had been ready to accept this precious hairpin, but the mood faded. Qi Heyao saw her lower her head and remained silent, her eyes fixed on the hairpin. He pondered in his heart that Yun Qian must want him to pin the hairpin on her head for her. After thinking about the result, Qi Heyao had no doubt.

"Qian'er..." Qi Heyao's voice was gentle, but a little anxious. He lifted her chin, trying to see the emotional fluctuations in her eyes.

Yun Qian slowly raised her head, her gaze meeting his calmly. She lowered her eyelids slightly, a faint smile playing on the corners of her lips. "I understand your Highness's feelings, and I cherish them. However... there's a folk rumor that it's best for men and women not to see each other for more than a month before the wedding. That's why I was thinking about this."

Qi Heyao's eyes sank slightly, and he breathed a sigh of relief. So that's how it was. He smiled again, and without saying anything more, he gently picked up the white jade hairpin. His movements were slow and gentle. He lifted the hairpin lightly, his fingertips trembling slightly, but he still firmly pinned it into Yun Qian's hair.

"Qianqian, you don't have to worry too much, I'm here for you."

Well, you are here, waiting for you to send my whole family to the battlefield to die, waiting for you to put me in seclusion.

Yun Qian despised her, feeling that relying on men for everything was a dead end. She remained silent. Qi Heyao came up and held her hand again, gazing into her eyes. "Qian Qian, I'm leaving now. Don't go back to the Yun Mansion for the time being. Stay with the Queen Mother, and I'll be at ease."

Yun Qian looked up at his face and nodded gently. Just when Yun Qian thought he was finally leaving, he naturally took Yun Qian into his arms again. Just a moment, Yun Qian's body stiffened. She really didn't dare to think about whether Qi Jueyu would go crazy if he saw it...

"As long as you don't enter the Eastern Palace, I won't be able to sleep peacefully. I just want to see you every day." Qi Heyao said this and chuckled, as if lamenting his own foolishness. "Have you seen the wedding dress? Do you like it?"

Yun Qian was frozen in his embrace, a complex, indescribable feeling swirling within her, like a silent storm. Her hands hung in the air, neither pushing him away nor responding. She could only remain silent, trying to keep her expression as calm as water.

When she heard Qi Heyao mention the wedding dress, her eyes flickered slightly, then returned to normal, her tone calm, "I haven't taken a close look, but since His Highness took the trouble to prepare it, it must be good."

"If you like it, I'll be relieved." Qi Heyao lowered her head, a gentle smile in her eyes, as if every word she said could put him at ease. "If there's anything you're not satisfied with, just tell me, and I'll definitely make it better for you."

Yun Qian still maintained that gentle look, with a faint smile on his lips, and lowered his head in silence.

Qi Heyao seemed oblivious to her perfunctory attitude. He looked at her reluctantly for a moment before slowly releasing his hand and taking a step back. He gently placed his hand on her shoulder and added, "I'm leaving now. You must take good care of yourself. If anything happens, just send someone to tell me. I'll come see you when I'm free."

"Yeah." Yun Qian's tone remained calm, and she bowed her head to see him off.

Qi Heyao turned away, satisfied, his steps steady and unhurried. Yun Qian breathed a sigh of relief when his figure completely vanished from the palace gates. Not only her, but the system, too, had witnessed the entire process and felt a pang of worry for Yun Qian. It wondered why the Crown Prince had so much free time, constantly discussing this and that.

"How much longer?"

"How long do you mean?" the system asked in confusion. It felt that this was the first time it heard the host's voice sound so... like death.

"Divorce period..."

"Oh, there are still about fifteen days left. It's neither long nor short. Host, don't worry."

The system spoke this sentence more and more quietly. Looking at Yun Qian lying on the bed with her eyes closed, the system felt sad and thought that this task was indeed difficult.

At the same time, it felt very excited. It had been a long time since it had seen such an exciting plot. The little system's excitement was clearly beyond words. Seeing that the host did not explicitly refuse, it drew a circle in the air and landed on Yun Qian with a hop and skip like a naughty elf.

It made no secret of its pride and joy. The progress of the mission made it feel extremely satisfied. "Host, I told you, the missions in the main god space are all interesting! Isn't the plot even more exciting now? Hehe!"

Yun Qian glanced at it lifelessly, ignoring the happily jumping little creature, but she didn't say a word to interrupt it. The small system turned its head and looked around, then floated to Yun Qian's lower abdomen and stopped. There was a strange hint of joy in its voice: "Hehe, host, this is the baby's home, right? How about it, can you feel her?"

At the mention of the child, Yun Qian's expression softened a bit, and her voice involuntarily lowered, as if she was afraid of disturbing something precious. "I can't really feel it, to be honest... But of course she is mine. No matter what happens, that won't change."

The system cautiously "peeked in," as if trying to "communicate" with the tiny life within. It spoke in a somewhat mysterious tone, "The baby is about two months old now! However, her head is still a little big, and her body is tiny. You can barely make out the outline of a little person... But don't get me wrong, she's still very, very tiny!"

Yun Qian couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard this. Her voice was calm but with a hint of indifference: "That's nonsense. How big can a two-month-old baby be?"

Seeing this, the small system quickly "smiled" apologetically, its virtual figure swaying, fearing that it would be thrown out by the host: "Hey, host, don't be angry, I said this because I was afraid you would worry! I know you will definitely protect the baby! With you around, she will definitely be super powerful in the future!"
