Chapter 165 Song Qinghuan 6 (The End)
Song Nan, you liar! You've been gone for three years! Did you really abandon me like they said? Song Nan, you can't abandon me, I'm going to find you. —Song Qinghuan
After seeing the person out of the valley, Song's father turned around with his hands behind his back and went to have a drink with his old friend.
There's nothing he can do about it; he's now considered a wealthy idler.
Song Nan stopped again and looked back. His two subordinates couldn't help but remind him, "Young Master, let's go. We've been delayed for several days. The master is still waiting for you."
"You guys go to the county and wait for me. I'll come find you later."
The group didn't understand why, but they could only do as instructed.
Song Nan walked slowly along the road, walking for a while, then sitting down for a while, taking a long time to cover the short distance.
"Song Nan!"
Finally, she arrived. Song Nan turned around and saw the girl crying again, her face covered in tears, staring at him pitifully.
"Song Nan, are you never coming back?"
"We'll never see each other again? Is that true?"
Song Nan gripped the sword tightly and noticed that her hand holding it was red. He went over and took out a medicine bottle from his spatial storage to carefully apply medicine to her hand.
"Qinghuan, you're right. It's dangerous outside. There will be more and more demons out there. You should stay in the valley and not go out. If in the future I..."
"Forget it, I won't come back. Don't wait for me. Live a good life in the valley, get married, have children, and live a good life."
The boy gripped his sword tightly, turned, and left.
"Song Nan!"
Song Qinghuan stood in front of him, her voice trembling with tears, and said, "Life is so long, are we going to never see each other again? I can wait for you, one year, two years, ten years! Fifty years! I can wait for you!"
"Or you can take me with you! Song Nan, please take me with you..."
Song Nan didn't dare look at her, and said harshly, "I told you, I could never marry you! Song Qinghuan, you're always bothering me, it's really... really annoying!"
The boy walked forward with unsteady steps, while Song Qinghuan stood frozen in place, crying like a child.
Song Nan hates her, Song Nan hates Song Qinghuan...
He's gone, he's gone, they'll never see each other again...
He will live out his life somewhere she can't see him, marrying and having children...
"Song Nan, Song Nan..."
Song Qinghuan continued walking forward, crying as she went, from day to night. She hadn't been out much and didn't know which way this road led; she just wanted to keep up with Song Nan.
As darkness fell completely, Song Qinghuan realized that she was lost.
Unable to find her way home, she wasn't afraid and just squatted on the ground, crying so hard she almost fainted...
The incessant chirping of cicadas once again accompanied the girl's cries, making them sound even more desolate.
"Hey! Song Qinghuan, you really know how to cry!"
The boy's tone was unpleasant, and his eyes were very red and swollen.
He was truly astonished. How could someone cry all day long? He probably wouldn't have come out if he wasn't worried about her crying her eyes out.
Song Qinghuan slowly raised her head, unable to believe that Song Nan was still standing in front of her.
Is this an illusion?
She wanted to stand up, but her legs were too numb to stand, so she could only hug his calves tightly to prevent him from leaving.
"Song Nan! Waaaaah... Don't go... Don't leave me... Waaaaah... Don't leave me... Don't leave me... Waaaaah..."
"Song Qinghuan, you have no idea how important what I'm about to do is! I'm going out to save the world, I..."
Song Nan looked down at her, thinking about what his father had said. Ghost Valley would definitely be unsealed in the future, and the world would be in chaos. Returning to the Jiang family would likely mean certain death. His father advised him to stay in the valley, and from then on, only Song Nan would exist in the world.
But what kind of joke is this? Who is he to willingly spend most of his life trapped in this poor, remote place, living a mediocre life?
Song Nan is a man destined for great things!
he……
"Song Nan... I only love you... I don't want anyone else... Waaaaah... Don't leave me... Waaaaah... Please... Waaaaah..."
Song Nan's heart softened instantly; he had no choice but to give in. He knelt down, looked at the girl's swollen eyes, and gently wiped away her tears with a handkerchief.
"Song Qinghuan, I'm truly defeated by you."
He carefully wiped away her tears, but someone grabbed his neck from behind.
"Song Nan, Song Nan, waaaaah..."
He patted her back gently and comforted her, "It's okay, it's okay, don't cry, I'll come back."
Song Qinghuan looked into his eyes uncertainly and asked, "R-really?"
The girl's swollen eyes and red cheeks were strange; no matter how far he ran, he could always recall the way her eyes were red and swollen from crying.
Sigh, he's gone. What will Song Qinghuan, this doormat, do? She'll probably have to hide away and cry again.
His tone was both conciliatory and comforting: "Wait for me one more time. After I finish dealing with something, I'll come back and stay with you in this little valley for the rest of my life."
"Are you... are you lying to me? What is it? Can't you just stay?"
Song Qinghuan still didn't believe it. She held his hand tightly, not letting him leave.
"I'm not lying to you, only I can do this, and it concerns the safety of the Three Realms. Don't worry, I will definitely come back after I've dealt with this."
"Really?"
Song Qinghuan still couldn't quite believe it.
"real."
Song Nan smiled as he looked at her, took the jade pendant from his waist, and placed it in her hand.
Song Qinghuan naturally knew what this was. It was something that Song Nan would risk choking to death to protect, and she had never seen him take it out before.
"This is very important to me. Keep it safe and I'll come back to get it from you."
"My Qinghuan really can't live without me."
Song Nan stroked her head, his tone smug, "Just wait, when I come back, we'll have a bunch of kids in the valley..."
Song Qinghuan didn't feel ashamed when she heard him say that; she just nodded firmly while crying.
"Yes! Have a bunch of kids!"
"Hahaha……"
Song Nan laughed out loud. Well, staying here for the rest of my life doesn't seem so bad.
That night, Song Nan escorted Song Qinghuan back to the valley before turning and leaving under Song Qinghuan's gaze.
After walking for a while, he became worried and ran back to follow her. Only after seeing her return home in a daze did he feel relieved enough to leave.
Song Qinghuan, I'll tell you a secret when I get back. Every time you chased me out of the valley, I would secretly run back and watch you go home before I left. —Song Nan
Many times, Song Qinghuan felt that she was hallucinating that day, and that Song Nan had never come back to say those things to her. But the jade pendant in her hand told her that it was real.
He really did appear; he really did say he wanted to spend his whole life with her in the valley…
But one year, two years, three years... Song Nan didn't hear from her at all.
Everyone says that Song Nan abandoned the Song family girl a long time ago, but this little girl is still indulging in wishful thinking.
Song Nan might already be married to a high-ranking official's daughter of equal social standing, and have several healthy sons. How could he possibly remember a former fiancée from the countryside?
Song Qinghuan didn't believe these words most of the time, but the longer it went on, the less confident she became.
Perhaps he had long been tired of her, and that day he was just trying to coax her.
Song Qinghuan silently endured the ridicule from others, stubbornly waiting.
After Song's father made money, he developed a drinking habit in the past two years. Before he could persuade his daughter to get married, he drank himself to death.
After Song's father died, Song's mother's health collapsed immediately. She passed away before Song Qinghuan could even take care of her. Both Song's father and mother were over sixty years old, so their passing in the valley was considered late.
After handling her parents' funeral arrangements and looking at the large and spacious new house her family had built, Song Qinghuan finally decided to leave.
She's only leaving for a short while, just a short while. Once she brings Song Nan back, they'll stay here for the rest of their lives.
As Song Qinghuan looked at the exit of the valley, she was lost in thought, never to return.
