Falling in Love Online with an Ancient General

"I sent her back home."

"I was planning to take her sightseeing and shopping around here!" Feng Qingyi said.

Qin Yuchuan replied, "She said she wanted to go back early. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future, no need to rush."

After handing the household register to Qin Yuchuan, Feng Qingyi got into the car.

Qin Yuchuan sat down in the passenger seat. "Qingqing, shall we go get our marriage license tomorrow?"

"...Why so rushed?" Feng Qingyi asked.

Qin Yuchuan said, "I checked, and here you're only legally married after getting the license."

"I think we should pick an auspicious date, don't you think?" Feng Qingyi asked.

Qin Yuchuan thought for a moment. "That works too. How about the 12th of next month? After getting the license, we'll go to Shengjing for the wedding."

"Alright. To be honest, I'm quite looking forward to the traditional Chinese wedding there. The bridal gown Auntie embroidered for me is gorgeous," Feng Qingyi said.

Qin Yuchuan smiled, "I'm really looking forward to it."

"Looking forward to what?" Feng Qingyi turned to look at him.

Qin Yuchuan: "Looking forward to seeing you in your bridal gown, and to you becoming my wife."

"Well, keep looking forward to it. I was thinking, after our wedding in Shengjing, we could have another Western-style wedding here. I like outdoor weddings, and it would be even better if we could do it by the sea," Feng Qingyi said.

Qin Yuchuan: "Alright, whatever you want. We can have as many weddings as you like, as long as I'm the groom."

"...What are you thinking! These two are enough!"

At the end of May, Feng Qingyi successfully became a full-time employee at her company.

During this time, Qin Yuchuan went to driving school every day on schedule. Since he had signed up for one-on-one lessons, he could start practicing immediately whenever he went.

To get his license as soon as possible, he showed up rain or shine.

"Mr. Qin, I think you're already doing very well. You should just schedule your test for the 12th and stop coming these next few days," the instructor said.

Qin Yuchuan refused, "I'm getting married on the 12th, no time. Besides, I've paid for the lessons."

"...Alright, you've paid, so come whenever you want. But Mr. Qin, I see you're wearing all designer brands, you must be wealthy. Could you please stop mooching off my lunches every day?"

Ever since this student started learning, the instructor had to treat him to lunch every day, and he was the one paying.

Qin Yuchuan looked a bit embarrassed, "I've handed over all my money."

"...Why don't you ask your fiancée to send you some?" the instructor suggested.

Qin Yuchuan thought about it. It was indeed unreasonable to have the instructor treat him every day. "Okay."

Feng Qingyi, who was working at the company, suddenly received a message from Qin Yuchuan.

[Yuchuan: Qingqing, I have no money for food.]

Feng Qingyi almost laughed out loud when she saw this message.

[Qingyi: What have you been eating for lunch before?]

[Yuchuan: With the instructor.]

[Qingyi: Hahaha, I'll transfer some money to your WeChat. Treat your instructor to a nice meal.]

[Yuchuan: Okay.]

[Qingyi: Let me know if you need anything else.]

[Yuchuan: Okay.]

Soon after, Qin Yuchuan received the WeChat transfer from Feng Qingyi. Looking at the 200,000 yuan in his WeChat wallet, Qin Yuchuan said to the instructor beside him, "Today, it's my treat!"

The instructor accidentally saw his balance, "Your fiancée is a keeper, transferring 200,000 at once. Well, I won't hold back today."

The instructor drove Qin Yuchuan to lunch.

In a luxurious Chinese restaurant, Qin Yuchuan and the instructor found a table and sat down.

Feng Qingci, who was having lunch with Lou Xi, turned his head and saw Qin Yuchuan sitting opposite.

"Xi Xi, wait for me a moment, I'll be right back!" Feng Qingci put down his chopsticks and walked over to Qin Yuchuan. "Why are you here?"

Qin Yuchuan heard the voice and pushed the menu to the instructor across from him, "You order."

"Qin, are you deliberately ignoring me?" Feng Qingci said again.

Qin Yuchuan: "I heard you're saving money to buy a house?"

"...How do you know?" Feng Qingci asked.

Qin Yuchuan smiled, "Never mind how I know. How much more do you need? I'll make up the difference."

"Are you serious?" Feng Qingci could hardly believe it.

Qin Yuchuan looked at him, "I never lie. How much more do you need?"

"Well, I'm short quite a bit. Do you have 5 million?" Feng Qingci asked.

Qin Yuchuan nodded, "Of course. Come to the villa tomorrow morning to get it."

"Then it's settled. I won't disturb your meal any further." Feng Qingci completely forgot why he had come over in the first place.

He returned to his seat and couldn't help sharing with Lou Xi, "Qin Yuchuan just said he'd give me money to buy a house and told me to collect it tomorrow."

"Now that we've bought a house, shouldn't we consider getting married? Feng Qingyi is already getting her marriage license with Qin Yuchuan. I'm her brother, how can I fall behind?"

Lou Xi glanced at him, "Am I short on money? Why are you letting him buy you a house?"

"I didn't ask for it, he offered," Feng Qingci said.

Lou Xi: "We'll go buy a house tomorrow. I'll pay, and it'll be in my name. You don't have any objections, right?"

"How can I let you pay for the house? Even if we don't take Qin Yuchuan's money, I've saved up almost enough, and with my parents' help, it's enough to buy a nice house. I'll pay, and we'll put it in your name. It's decided," Feng Qingci said.

Lou Xi nodded, "Mm."

Feng Qingci looked at her, "Xi Xi, have you thought about when to get married?"

"You want to get married?" Lou Xi asked in return.

Feng Qingci: "I want to have a small family with you."

"Let's consider marriage after our careers are stable. Right now, you should focus on working hard," Lou Xi was always rational.

Although Feng Qingci really wanted to marry Lou Xi, when he compared his situation to Qin Yuchuan's, he suddenly felt a bit dejected.

With his current conditions, without his family's help, he couldn't give her the best of everything. So he should just focus on working hard!

"Alright, I'll definitely work hard."

The instructor sitting across from Qin Yuchuan said after Feng Qingci returned to his seat, "Mr. Qin, I don't mean to mock you, but you need your fiancée to send you money for meals. Where are you going to get 5 million to buy that guy a house?"

"My family deals in antiques. Selling a few pieces is enough to get the money."

Hearing this, the instructor sighed, "I don't understand the world of you rich people."

...

In Shengjing, at the Imperial Palace.

In Yangxin Hall, Xuanyuan Yan looked at the memorials impeaching Qin Yuchuan with some helplessness.

Since returning to court, he hadn't attended a single morning court session and was nowhere to be seen every day.

Although he had guessed where Qin Yuchuan had actually gone, only he could be so unrestrained.

Some court officials had long been dissatisfied with him, and some even wanted to replace him.

He had wanted to take this opportunity to promote him, but was refused.

If he hadn't persuaded him to stay, Qin Yuchuan might have left Shengjing with his family.

"Ming Jiu, has the date for Chuan'er's wedding been set?" Xuanyuan Yan asked.

Ming Jiu nodded, "The date is set for June 12th."

"June 12th, indeed a good day. Prepare more wedding gifts to send over," Xuanyuan Yan instructed.

Ming Jiu asked, "Your Majesty, aren't you going?"

"No." It was enough for him to watch them from afar.

Ming Jiu felt he understood Xuanyuan Yan less and less. Sometimes he thought the Emperor had feelings for Miss Feng, sometimes he felt it was just his imagination.

But now everything was settled. Even if he really had feelings, it was useless now. He should try to divert his attention.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Li has been ill recently. Do you want to visit her?"

Xuanyuan Yan glanced at him, "How much silver did you receive from her this time?"

"...Not much, just a few taels," Ming Jiu said weakly.

Xuanyuan Yan's face was expressionless, "Hand it over to the state treasury."

"...Your Majesty, can we, can we discuss this?" He had just gotten back to his old business, and now it had to be handed over to the state.

Xuanyuan Yan: "From now on, whatever you receive, hand over double. Now get out."

...

In Wenyuan Pavilion, Qian Jue was playing chess with Guang'an.

"You used to spend your days either traveling around or staying in temples, always observing the stars at night. That wasn't a proper life for a person. You should have experienced the wonderful life in Shengjing earlier, chatting with friends, playing cards. Who knows, you might not have wanted to go back."

Guang'an didn't respond to Qian Jue's words. These two were indeed strange - one trying to persuade the other to leave, while the other tried to convince him to stay. In the end, neither could persuade the other.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Qian Jue said, "Well, let's not talk about this anymore. Qin Yuchuan sent a wedding invitation, inviting us to attend their wedding."

"Mm, I'll go," he replied. If it weren't for them, he wouldn't have been able to fulfill his wishes. He should indeed go and offer his congratulations.

Qian Jue: "Guang'an, I've always been puzzled. Both phones were in your hands initially, so why didn't you directly extract the space stones? Instead, you had me sell a phone near that girl's place, and then put the other one among the spoils?"

"The space stones existing within the phones would only work when they encountered the right person. In other words, those phones were just pieces of junk in our hands, and we couldn't even extract the stones," Guang'an explained.

Qian Jue: "So, everything was within your expectations, even the appearance of the other two space stones later on had something to do with them."

"Space stones can sense each other. Only when one appears will the others follow suit. The one in the illusory realm couldn't have been obtained without her presence," Guang'an frankly admitted.

Qian Jue sighed, "I never imagined that to obtain the power of the space stones and return, you would set up such an elaborate scheme. I wonder how those two would react if they knew?"

"I can't control people's emotions. That was their own choice. I merely provided them with a medium, nothing more," Guang'an said slowly.

Qian Jue: "You've lost. We're not playing anymore today. I'm taking you to that girl's teahouse for some tea!"
