Chapter 42 -38: The Emergence of Feelings
The miracle doctor unwrapped the bandage on her hand and applied some medicine for her already crusted wound.
“You sure have a wild imagination.” Shi Zi said.
“Ah, seeing your ruined clothes, it really feels like a scene out of Beauty and the Beast,” Haotian said.
“More like Beauty and the Beast, why don’t you go play Lamb and the Beast,” Shi Zi brushed off Haotian with a shove.
“What about Ye Chen? How did he find you?” asked Haotian.
Yu Qing glanced at Zhan Ze and briefly told them the story.
“So, he really did run into you. Poor young Master Ze was left out.”
“He didn’t think I was there either, I shouted for a long time, and none of you heard me. It was dusk and he just tried his luck.”
Haotian said, “You were halfway up the mountain, we couldn’t hear you from the top.”
Yu Qing nodded.
Jingxing said, “It’s good you’re safe. If something had happened to you, I’m afraid our Zhan Ze would have been devastated.”
Shi Zi added, “Not just him being devastated, I would have been, too.”
Haotian stood up and said, “I’m glad you’re okay. I’m totally exhausted and I need to get some sleep.”
Yu Qing quickly said, “Yes, go back and rest, all of you. You’ve worried enough.”
Haotian and Jingxing left soon after.
Yu Qing turned to Zhan Ze, “You should go back, too.”
Zhan Ze relaxed only after the doctor had treated her.
“Okay, I’ll come to see you tonight,” said young Master Ze.
“Yeah, go back and get some rest.”
All of a sudden, only Yu Qing and Shi Zi were left. After the doctor applied medicine to Yu Qing’s wound, he gave her instructions to avoid contact with water.
Yu Qing nodded and the doctor quickly left.
“That was a close shave,” Shi Zi continued, “Too bad it wasn’t Zhan Ze who found you.”
“What do you mean?”
“If it were Zhan Ze who found you, there would be a story.”
“Could you stop such talk? Get me a couple of sets of clothes. You’re making it sound like I’ve been violated.”
“You weren’t violated by that country bumpkin, were you?”
“What nonsense is that!” Qing’er’s finger jabbed his forehead, “Stop daydreaming!”
Luo Rui, who was preparing breakfast outside, walked in and said, “Hey, have breakfast first, then take your time changing clothes.”
Shi Zi stood up and said, “I’m all sweaty. I need to change.”
Qing’er waved at him.
All of a sudden, only Qing’er and Luo Rui were left in the room.
Qing’er brought the breakfast over.
Yu Qing asked, “Is your headache better?”
“Yeah, I’m all better.”
Luo Rui looked at Yu Qing’s foot wrapped like a rice dumpling and asked, “Does it hurt much?”
“Not really. That monkey knew what he was doing. He used some herbs and it stopped swelling. You have no idea how swollen it was last night, just like a pig’s head. I couldn’t move it, let alone walk,” She referred to the country bumpkin as a monkey all of a sudden.
“Didn’t he do anything to you last night?”
“What are you thinking about?”
“Oh, a beauty like you, who wouldn’t drool at the sight of you? Who could resist?”
“Resist this, stop fantasizing,” Yu Qing snapped.
Luo Rui said, “Let’s have breakfast. I’ll pick a dress for you,” and left for the room.
Luo Rui added, “Such a good opportunity, the hero should have been Zhan Ze.”
“Heh, a hero, huh? Lucky to have made it out of there. There was a poisonous snake on the cliff, almost fell off.”
“Oh, a poisonous snake! Isn’t that exciting, constant drama.”
“It was taller than me, crossed from the other side.”
“Did that guy block it for you?”
“He knew something, used a branch to flick it down the cliff.”
“You used to call him a country boy who knew nothing.”
“So what?”
“Save you once and suddenly he’s different, but don’t think of marrying him just because he saved your life. I won’t agree,” Luo Rui said mockingly.
“Stop your nonsense,” Yu Qing leaned in quickly with chopsticks, suddenly feeling hungry. Even though she was hurt, it felt like all the burdens in her heart had been lifted. “These dumplings are good, just how I like them.”
“You look unusually happy. I’ve never seen you this happy before,” Luo Rui said.
Yu Qing quickly said, “I escaped death, isn’t that worth being happy about?”
“Yes, we should definitely celebrate. Barely escaping death calls for a celebration.”
“Ah, stop complicating things. No celebration needed.”
“How can we not celebrate? Zhan Ze also mentioned a celebration.”
“I just want some peace. It was so chaotic last night, it felt like a storm swept over the whole Immortal City.”
“Sounds like something interesting happened?”
“You want to know if we got betrothed in that cave, don’t you?”
“Did you really? While it’s indeed heartwarming, remember, he’s just a cowherd,” Luo Rui said.
“Haha, there seems to be something wrong with your vision. What’s wrong with being a cowherd? He’s an honest man.”
“You’re actually speaking up for him? That’s not what you were saying a few days ago.”
“What about a few days ago?”
“Every time you talk about him, you do it with disdain, especially the other night, you were even a bit angry.”
“That was a misunderstanding.”
“Misunderstanding? What did you misunderstand?” Luo Rui asked.
“Can you let me eat my breakfast in peace? I am really hungry.”
“I’m telling you, you are Zhan Ze’s.”
“Oh really? Do I have a label stuck on me that says I’m Zhan Ze’s wife?”

“Hey, you can’t like him.”
“Why not?”
“Zhan Ze likes you so much.” Luo Rui glanced outside, afraid of being overheard.
“So I can’t like somebody else? Is it only Zhan Ze that I can marry?”
“You didn’t really end up liking that guy in just one night, did you? What did he say to you last night that made you change so dramatically?”
“It’s not like that. What I’m trying to say is, no matter what happens, even though Zhan Ze likes me, I am grateful and touched. But, I have the right to like someone else. I don’t necessarily have to marry Zhan Ze. I’m not Zhan Ze’s for the rest of my life.”
Luo Rui sniffled a bit. Although she said that, she still felt that something was a bit different about Yu Qing.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Qing’er asked.
“I feel like you’ve changed a lot.”
“What kind of big change?”
“I can’t put my finger on it, but you seem to be much happier, like you’ve suddenly seen through some things and become a lot more relaxed.”
“Of course, I have understood some things. It’s not possible that someone who has had a brush with death wouldn’t change a little.”
“I think it must’ve been that country master who enlightened you.”
“Stop speaking nonsense!” Qing’er swung a chopstick at her.
Luo Rui quickly dodged.
Qing’er said: “Actually, some of the things he said made quite some sense.”
“What enlightening words did he say?”
“Better not to tell you. If I did, you would overthink it.” Yu Qing knew this girl liked to let her imagination run wild.
“You better not actually fall for him.”
Yu Qing let out a fake laugh upon hearing this and murmured: “How could it be possible!”
“Hehe, your fake laugh, it really worries me.” Luo Rui said.
Yu Qing continued eating, but said nothing further.
“You haven’t really fallen for him, have you?”
“Am I really such a wild person?”
Only then did Luo Rui feel a little more reassured.
Lots of delicious food was served. Having been hungry for all morning and deeply troubled, Yu Qing’s appetite was still good. She ate a lot.
“Such a good appetite.”
“Hehe, you don’t want me to have a good appetite?”
“Of course I do. Seeing you eat well makes me happy.”
“I thought you were afraid of me having a good appetite.” Qing’er continued, “No more talking, I need to go change these ragged clothes.”
But Luo Rui said: “Why change them? They have quite the sentimental value, you can see what it looks like to be ravaged by a wild beast!”
Yu Qing knew exactly what this quirky girl meant, and she just smiled gently.
“Am I wrong?”
“Sure, you’re wrong.”
“I need to take a shower and have a good sleep.”
News of Ye Chen rescuing Yu Qing quickly spread across Immortal City. Ye Chen himself was only recognized by a few in the Immortal City, yet this incident caused many more people to recognize him.
At night, Ye Chen went to Yingyun Pavilion to see Zhan Ze. Zhan Ze was there, as well as Haotian and Jingxing who had slept all day.
Seeing Ye Chen come in, Jingxing said: “Oh, here comes our hero.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen felt a little embarrassed, especially when facing Zhan Ze. He hoped everyone would quickly forget about this. He was very clear about Young Master Ze’s impulsiveness.
Jingxing continued: “However, next time something like this happens, you should tell Zhan Ze and let him handle it.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen hurriedly replied: “Yes, you guys weren’t there at the time, and I didn’t expect her to really be at the bottom of the cliff. I just wanted to try my luck. If I had known that she was down the cliff, I would have definitely waited for Zhan Ze to come back.” That was all he could say.
“Hmm, you weren’t hurt, were you?” Zhan Ze asked with concern.
“No, I wasn’t hurt. Is there anything to eat? I’m a bit hungry.”
“Go ahead.”
“What about you guys?”
“We just ate.”
“When I came out of the cave, I shouted and waved a torch, but there was no response. It was probably because it was a canyon, and the sound couldn’t travel.”
Hearing this, Haotian said: “By the time you came out and called us, we were probably already at the other side of the cliff resting.”
Ye Chen just nodded in reply.
Jingxing said again: “It’s good as long as you’re fine.”
“Has Zhan Ze gone to see her?” Ye Chen asked.
“Our Young Master Ze can’t wait to stay there all the time.” Haotian said.
Ye Chen just gave a slight smile.
Zhan Ze replied: “Hmm, the swelling on her feet has reduced a lot. Especially after applying the medicine all last night, it had a very good effect.”
Ye Chen said: “Where I come from, when people sprain their ankles, they use this method to reduce the swelling. I had no idea if it would work.”
“The effect was very good.” Zhan Ze thanked Ye Chen again.
