Chapter 38 Ke Ruan Had an Idea
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
The next morning, Ke Ruan knew that Lin Qingye was well prepared and was ready to send some soldiers to Qiaoshan to fish for something.
However, Lin Qingye would never agree to bring him, so he must figure out a way to follow secretly. Otherwise, what if something happened to Lin Qingye?
Looking up, Si Yuhan saw Ke Ruan’s pupils moving fastly. He knew immediately that Ke Ruan had a plan for something.
“Little Han, have more of these things. Did you sleep well last night? Did you have any nightmares? Look at you. You are way too skinny. You should eat more and better. Treat yourself better.” Ke Ruan was picking up the dish and put it into his bowl again and again.
“Thanks.”
Ke Ruan froze and suddenly looked at him. What he saw was a pair of gentle eyes. He could almost burst into tears. How nice! He used to mock me and ignore me. But now! Although it was not obvious at all, Ke Ruan still felt grateful. How nice!
“Young Master. Please stay at the inn for these next few days.”
Ke Ruan asked, “Would you go as well? ”
“Yes!”
He was thinking about asking Lin Qingye to take him. He looked at Lin Qingye for a moment, then muttered, “General Lin, could you…”
“No way!”
“I… haven’t said anything yet.”
“You have promised to behave before we got here.”
Well. That was true, but the reason why he got here was to protect Lin Qingye. If he didn’t follow him this time and something went wrong, his coming here would be meaningless. And he couldn’t let that happen.
Ke Ruan faked a smile and pondered. Then he said, “Okay then. I’ll behave and stay here like I’ve promised. Forget what I say. Don’t worry. General Lin.”
Si Yuhan smiled and touched his chin. He had already knew that whenever Ke Ruan got an idea, his pupils would circle around like that. Those eyes would look crystal.
“Mr. Si, you seem to get injured as well. Can I have a check for you?” Lin Qingye suddenly grabbed Si Yuhan’s wrist.
Of course Si Yuhan knew immediately what he was trying to do, so he said, “Go ahead, General Lin. I’m fine. It was nothing serious. ”
Lin Qingye took the opportunity and grabbed his wrist, using his fingers to feel his pulse. How strange! Although he did have some inner power, that could only count as elementary, nothing usual here.
Si Yuhan put on his poker face. Since Lin Qingye was trying to examine him, then go and do that. He was not that silly to let him figure out exactly what he’d really got. For people like him, it would be unusual if they had no inner power at all. So he tried to control his body to let him only discover a little of that.
However, Lin Qingye was still suspicious of him.
Si Yuhan looked down. Lin Qingye would be a good rival. Unfortunately, he would die this time. After all, the less the enemies, the better. He wouldn’t have to worry about it soon.
“General Lin. General Lin…”
Ke Ruan called his name for a few times. It had been a while since he grabbed Si Yuhan’s wrist. And his looks were weird.
Lin Qingye withdrew his arms and took out a china bottle from his chest, then said,”This balm can be applied on your wound.”
“Thanks. General Lin.”Si Yuhan said politely.
Ke Ruan was smiling and then said, ” When are you going to set off?”
“Tomorrow night.”
Ke nodded. “General Lin, please be careful.”
“Of course.”
He sighed silently. One could only live once. Lin Qingye was powerful, that was for sure. But there surely were people out there who were even more powerful than him. Overconfidence sometimes was not a good thing.
