Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 687: Chapter 554: Finally Together

Looking at Ye Lingyue with her smiling, curved eyes, Feng Xun couldn’t help but feel his heartbeat quicken.

He was a good half head taller than Ye Lingyue.

At this height, a slight tilt of his head allowed him to clearly see Ye Lingyue.

Because he was standing so close, he could even see her long, jet-black eyelashes, her poreless skin, her pretty nose, and her full lips—all deeply imprinted in his eyes.

Without realizing it, Feng Xun lowered his head, and Ye Lingyue felt a shadow looming above her; she subconsciously closed her eyes.

Feng Xun’s lips found her smooth forehead, gentle, moist, and slightly cool.

When that kiss fell, Ye Lingyue felt a tingling sensation spread through her body.

Her legs grew weak, and she found herself embraced in Feng Xun’s arms.

”Ling Yue, I visited the Heavenly Venerate today and asked about our fate together.”

Ye Lingyue was taken aback, suddenly opening her closed eyes.

In Feng Xun’s eyes flickered an emotion that Ye Lingyue found very unfamiliar.

Sensing something, she couldn’t help but clutch at Feng Xun’s lapels.

”Don’t believe him; he’s just a charlatan.”

Indeed, a charlatan, feigning loftiness, not even revealing the cause of Feng Xun’s illness.

Although Ye Lingyue didn’t know what Feng Xun had discussed with the charlatan, she instinctively felt that it was nothing good.

In her urgency, Ye Lingyue didn’t realize how intimate her posture with Feng Xun was. She was nearly hanging in his embrace.

”He said that our horoscopes conflict,” Feng Xun said indifferently.

Ye Lingyue’s heart sank, suddenly feeling irritable and angrily refusing to look at Feng Xun.

”So, you’ve changed your mind? You came to Mercenary City to tell me that your previous words don’t count anymore. You choose to believe that old charlatan?”

There was a bit of spitefulness in her words.

Ye Lingyue herself did not understand why she was angry.

She knew she shouldn’t be upset; in her relationship with Feng Xun, she had always been in a dominant position, with Feng Xun leaving all choices up to her.

He had granted her too much freedom and gentleness, all of which Ye Lingyue had taken for granted until now.

But today, when Feng Xun suddenly mentioned their incompatible horoscopes, Ye Lingyue realized that, unconsciously, she had grown accustomed to Feng Xun, to the warm net he had woven around her.

Ridiculously, Feng Xun was about to give up.

Ye Lingyue felt a tightness in her heart, her annoyance urging her to push Feng Xun away.

But Feng Xun would not let go, holding her tightly with surprising strength.

”If you don’t let go, since our horoscopes conflict, aren’t you afraid that I’ll bring you down? Go find your Xue Pianran; she is the Dan Palace Heavenly Maiden who is destined to aid you,” Ye Lingyue babbled, struggling against Feng Xun.

”Ling Yue, calm down. I am not afraid of being cursed by you. What I am scared of is, hurting you.” As Ye Lingyue’s hands struggled, Feng Xun was forced to free one hand to subdue her restless hands, while his other hand captured Ye Lingyue’s chin, forcing her to look at him.

”Ever since my parents passed away, I knew that I would not live past twenty. At that time, I wasn’t scared, because for me, living and dying made no difference. But after I met you, suddenly I became afraid of death. I feared that I truly wouldn’t live past twenty. I told myself, if I can’t give you a lifetime of happiness, then I shouldn’t have entangled with you. But who can tell me how to control one’s own heart, one’s own eyes, one’s own longing? So, I selfishly told myself, as long as you agree, I would indulge myself just this once.” Feng Xun’s voice, deep and low, reached Ye Lingyue’s ears.

At this moment, he is not the high and mighty Beiqing Feng King. He is just a lowly man, as lowly as dust.

”Feng Xun, who asked you to control yourself, who stopped you from entangling with me? I want to be entangled by you, damn the fate of mutual destruction, I like you, Feng Xun.” Ye Lingyue’s eyes became red, and she suddenly embraced Feng Xun tightly.

In her heart, a certain string that had been taut for a long time broke.

In her sleep, that voice ”Do not be moved,” shattered and fragmented.

Feng Xun’s body shook, his breath suddenly heightened.

”Ling Yue, are you serious about what you said?”

”Feng Xun, you idiot, I’ve agreed to you. Regardless of our fates, regardless of any illness, I’ll walk with you through it all.” Ye Lingyue said softly with red eyes.

Upon hearing this, Feng Xun was ecstatic. He couldn’t help but lift Ye Lingyue up, holding her and spinning a few rounds.

”So, you agree to marry me? To be my wife?” Feng Xun gazed steadfastly at Ye Lingyue.

Ye Lingyue looked at the man before her and nodded.

In his eyes, her face was reflected, and in an instant, Ye Lingyue thought she saw a flash of amber light flicker through Feng Xun’s eyes.

Ye Lingyue was stunned for a moment, something flashed through her mind, but before she could savor that fleeting light, Feng Xun’s lips were already upon hers.

As the man’s breath filled her mouth, her thoughts became chaotic, something very important had been forgotten by her.

The next day, when Lan Cai’er found out that Ye Lingyue had agreed to Feng Xun’s proposal, she was completely dumbfounded, while Yan Jiu seemed to have expected such an outcome all along.

”If Wu Zhong knew you’ve beaten him to the punch, he’d probably die of anger.” Yan Jiu, hitting the nail on the head with profound meaning, asked, ”When do you plan to tell her?”

Hearing the name of Wu Zhong, Ye Lingyue’s expression subtly changed.

She thought that Yan Jiu was talking about telling Wu Zhong.

”I have my own judgement.” Feng Xun glanced at Ye Lingyue saw her lost in thought, felt a slight sulk in his heart, but thinking of her soon becoming his wife, his spirits lifted again.

There will be plenty of time in the future, since Wu Zhong had already agreed to cooperate with him, why should he bother about so much.

After reaching Beiqing, he and Ling Yue would have to face many things together. With Wu Zhong’s presence, he could rest assured, bringing Ye Lingyue with him to the Beiqing Imperial Palace.

Two days later, from the Xia Capital, a ritual officer and a ceremonial carriage were dispatched. It was prepared by Xiahou Qi as a congratulatory gift for the ascension ceremony of the Emperor Beiqing.

The arrival of the ceremonial carriage meaning it was time for Ye Lingyue to depart for Beiqing.

After taking care of the matters in Mercenary City, Ye Lingyue set out on her journey, heading to Beiqing with Feng Xun and the ceremonial carriage.

Yet, upon departing towards the city gates, Ye Lingyue unexpectedly encountered the Heavenly Venerate from Tongtian Pavilion.

What surprised Ye Lingyue was that behind the Heavenly Venerate stood a person dressed in black, who appeared to be a woman by her silhouette.

”Prince Feng, Yue Marquis, we meet again. Seeing the two of you together, you must be heading to Beiqing as well. Might you be able to give us a lift along with the Earth Venerate?” The Heavenly Venerate, seeing Ye Lingyue and Feng Xun together, showed no surprise but instead a familiar manner and proactively approached to greet them.
