Chapter 310:310. Boy-girl Twins

Translator: 549690339

Receiving the sudden Imperial Edict to lead his soldiers to Jiaye City, Nian Jincheng was reluctant to leave Yang Yu and felt a sense of helplessness. He remained in a bad mood throughout the journey. Only when he saw Gu Ling and Su Liang did he cheer up, as if reuniting with his family.

From the beginning, he was someone who longed for a family and disliked loneliness.

However, what Nian Jincheng didn’t expect was as he joyfully called out to Gu Ling, the respond he received was Gu Ling’s cold gaze before shutting the window, blocking his view?!

Nian Jincheng was confused. The last time they parted was on the day Gu Ling got married to Su Liang, while he was accompanying Gu Ling to the Su Mansion.

He ordered his troops to carry on and got off his horse to enter the restaurant alone. He quickly met up with them.

Su Liang had a smile on her face, while Gu Ling was expressionless.

“I travelled here from Nanshan City and already know the overall situation. If I had Imown earlier, I wouldn’t have brought the army as reinforcements,” Nian Jincheng sat down and said.

Su Liang asked, “Did the Emperor have any other instructions?”

Nian Jincheng shook his head, “No, I was commanded by the Emperor to come to Jiaye City and follow your orders upon arrival. Since the fighting has ceased, I’m worried about Xiaoyu and want to return home earlier. That should be fine, right? With you two here, nothing will go wrong.”

“No, it can’t,” Gu Ling objected.

This time, Nian Jincheng was certain that Gu Ling spoke ill-temperedly, as if he was upset with him? It was too strange, they were obviously reuniting as good friends, where could he have offended him?

Su Liang gently patted Gu Ling’s arm to comfort him.

Feeling stranger than ever, Nian Jincheng asked Gu Ling with a puzzled expression, “Aling, what’s wrong with you?”

“He’s fine,” Su Liang shook her head, “But since you’ve come all the way here, it wouldn’t be right to leave immediately. We’ve been waiting for you, we have something to discuss.”

Nian Jincheng nodded, “Speak.”

Su Liang then brought up the matter of Gu Ling’s master, Nangong Lin, inviting her to Yin Country.

“I know Aling’s master, but I haven’t seen him for many years. I didn’t know he had a daughter,” Nian Jincheng frowned, “Since it’s a rescue mission, and it’s Aling’s senior, you can’t refuse. But the Emperor sent you here to take charge, it wouldn’t be easy to explain if you leave abruptly, especially to Yin Country.”

“I’ve thought about how to explain it to the Emperor,” Su Liang replied, “Since General Beiyuan has passed, Che Yun was previously injured and poisoned. He also just found his younger brother, so he needs to take care of his family for the time being. You stay in Jiaye City temporarily to defend against potential attacks from Yin Country until we return.”

Nian Jincheng initially nodded slightly, until he heard the last sentence and paused, “You two? It should be enough if you go, what is Aling going there for?”

If Gu Ling’s gaze were a knife, Nian Jincheng would have been shredded a long time ago…

Su Liang patted Gu Ling’s arm again, smiling as she said to Nian Jincheng, “Of course, he’s going to protect me. This trip to Yin Country isn’t without risks.”

“With Aling’s master there, I think it’s better for him to stay in Jiaye City. It makes it easier to explain to the Emperor,” Nian Jincheng said seriously.

“His master has already left first,” Su Liang replied.

Nian Jincheng glanced at Gu Ling, then coughed lightly, “I understand. You two take off for Yin Country once I arrive. So, why does Aling look like he wants to kill me?”

Su Liang stood up with Gu Ling, chuckled and said, “That’s just your imagination, in fact, he was very happy to see you.” She couldn’t say that someone was frustrated with desire…

Nian Jincheng:… He knew his intuition was correct, but it seemed even stranger, what was going on that Gu Ling wouldn’t say, and even Su Liang was covering for him?

The three of them finished their discussion and left together, with Su Liang leading and Nian Jincheng trailing behind.

Just as Su Liang was about to leave, she heard Nian Jincheng whisper to Gu Ling, “The wedding day was disrupted but you managed to complete the ceremony. So after settling the situation here for two to three days, you two should have consummated the marriage, right?”

Su Liang understood that Nian Jincheng and Yang Yu were always concerned about the progress of her relationship with Gu Ling, so it made sense that Nian Jincheng would ask about it when they reunited. A long time ago, Nian

Jincheng had been thinking about getting Gu Ling to settle down quickly with Su Liang, fearing unexpected events. The completion of the wedding ceremony only gave them the title of being a married couple, only the consummation of the marriage would truly make them husband and wife.

However, at this moment, Nian Jincheng mentioning this to Gu Ling really added fuel to the fire…

Su Liang turned around, just in time to see a smooth parabola traced across her vision as Nian Jincheng was hurled out through the window…

Gu Ling extended his hand and circled it around Su Liang’s waist, “Let’s go.”

Outside, Nian Jincheng landed steadily, turned towards the stunned onlookers, and, regaining his composure, announced, “I have urgent business!” With that, he jumped on a horse nearby and swiftly rode away, escaping the awkward situation.

The instant he was propelled out of the window, Nian Jincheng’s mind became

exceedingly clear. He finally guessed what was going on: the conflict had settled for only a couple of days, could it be that Gu Ling originally intended to consummate his marriage with Su Liang tonight? Because of his arrival, they had to set off for Yin Country today…

No wonder Su Liang found it amusing and even comforted Gu Ling.

If that’s the case, Nian Jincheng completely understood and accepted Gu Ling’s desire to beat him up. It was all his fault for arriving too early and definitely not intentional; God knows he had always wanted Gu Ling and Su Liang to genuinely be together.

“Great God, don’t be like this.” Su Liang spoke with a smile, “Don’t blame

Xiaonian, he doesn’t know. But he probably has a hunch now.”

Gu Ling grumbled, “I feel really let down.”

“Don’t think about that anymore. Let’s go back quickly and pack up, then we’ll leave.” Su Liang said.

Actually, if they really wanted to postpone leaving until tomorrow, as long as they didn’t say anything, Nangong Lin wouldn’t know.

But there are priorities in everything.

They had to wait for Nian Jincheng to arrive before they could go. Not only was this a promise to Nangong Lin, but it was also the most reliable choice.

If Nian Jincheng was to arrive tomorrow, and there is nothing to worry about this evening, both of them would be happy, and they could do whatever they wanted.

But under the current circumstances, were they going to stay an extra night in Jiaye city just to consummate their marriage?

Without even discussing it, they both knew the answer; they wouldn’t.

“Actually, this is better.” Su Liang whispered, “If we were to consummate our marriage tonight and then set off on a long journey tomorrow, you might be even more irritated.”

The truth is, once they would succumb to their desires, it would be hard to control themselves. But they had to rush to rescue someone and couldn’t afford any further delay. Although they didn’t know Nangong Qian, since they had promised Nangong Lin, they had to do their utmost.

“I know.” Gu Ling sighed somewhat, “I just want to pull you into a corner where no one can see us and kiss you.”

Su Liang: .

Upon returning to Lian Mansion, they ran into Lian Shun, who was about to go out.

“Hey, you guys are back just in time! Gu Xiaoling, your best friend Nian Jincheng is here!” Lian Shun said with a smile.

“We have already met.” Su Liang told Lian Shun, “You and Che Yun and Nian Jincheng should take good care of Jiaye City.”

Lian Shun looked puzzled, “Did the Emperor ask both of you to return to the capital? So soon?”

Su Liang shook her head, “Not the Capital, we have other matters to handle. We will come back here again.”

Lian Shun adjusted his expression, “A secret mission? Then I won’t ask. Are you leaving today? Tonight, we have a banquet at home, we have invited the entire Beibei family; they insisted on thanking you.”

“We will pack up a bit and depart.” Su Liang said, “Tell them not to worry, I didn’t do much. By the way, was the father of Ling Yun who just passed away, the one who kidnapped him back then?”

Lian Shun nodded, ‘Yes. That man is utterly despicable; his child died, and upon accidentally seeing resemblance between Che Xiao and his son in their younger days, he stole him away and settled in the south. Luckily, he just wanted a son, so he didn’t make Che Xiao suffer; in fact, he even allowed him to study properly. When he became fatally ill, he rediscovered his conscience, intending to return Che Xiao to his family. He wanted to take him to Xuanbei City to find his family, but he could not travel far.”

“How did you know about his son’s death?” an intrigued Su Liang asked.

“He knew his time was short, so he left a letter for Che Xiao, letting him know Chen Qingyuan’s true intentions, and asking Che Xiao not to hate him. He probably found out that Che Yun was a military commander and thought that if Che Xiao returned home, there would be someone to protect him, and he would have a better life,” Lian Shun said indignantly. “He stole someone else’s child, so he won’t be alone anymore, but he’s brought so many years of suffering to Che Yun’s family. His death serves him right!”

Su Liang sighed lightly, “I understand. Go find Nian Jincheng and familiarize him with the situation in Jiaye City. We’re going to set off soon.”

“So soon?” Lian Shun shook his head, “Alright, alright, you two go and take care of the serious matters. Gu Xiaoling, don’t worry, I’ll take good care of your brother!”

With a faint look on her face, Gu Ling said, “You don’t have to, we’ve severed our ties.”

Lian Shun was stunned as Su Liang had already dragged Gu Ling away.

When Lian Shun found Nian Jincheng, Che Yun was already briefing him on the situation here.

“What did you do to upset Gu Xiaoling?” Lian Shun asked Nian Jincheng curiously, “He said he has severed ties with you and asked me not to treat you well.”

Nian Jincheng rubbed his forehead, “I did do something wrong to him.”

Lian Shun was even more confused, “You don’t have feelings for Su Xiaoliang, what could you possibly have done wrong to him?”

Clearing his throat lightly, Nian Jincheng said, “It’s not appropriate for me to divulge anything. But my best friend is no longer him, it’s Su Liang.”

Lian Shun laughed, “Well, then for the sake of Su Xiaoliang, I’ll be a good host to you!”

Su Liang and Gu Ling packed their bags, and Su Liang also prepared numerous Disguise Medicines for their journey.

“All set, let’s go.” Su Liang checked and made sure they had everything they needed.

Just as she was about to get up, Gu Ling pulled her in for a long kiss.

“Great God, I think I need to remind you that we have to avoid any romantic moments,” Su Liang said, her face turning red as she poked Gu Ling’s chest. Gu Ling’s eyes were deep with emotion, “Don’t you want to?”

Su Liang coughed lightly, ‘We are in our honeymoon period, so of course I also want to… but we have important matters at hand.”

“Alright.” A hint of amusement flickered in Gu Ling’s eyes, “If you don’t admit it, I’ll keep kissing you until you do.”

Su Liang hastily pushed Gu Ling away, “I’ve admitted it already. Let’s go!”

Without any delay, the dried food prepared by Lian Shun’s servants was delivered just in time.

The South City Gate of Jiaye City was still tightly shut. Su Liang didn’t want anyone to know she was leaving. Even though people from Yin Country would eventually find out, the later, the better.

The disguised duo secretly left Jiaye City and entered Yin Country territory at midnight.

The image that Su Liang had disguised herself to look like had slight resemblances to Nian Jincheng, which left Gu Ling speechless. Su Liang earnestly stated that it was for his good.

Of course, Gu Ling understood her intention. Looking at the face that resembled Nian Jincheng’s, his only urge was to punch it… fre𝚎w𝐞bn𝗼v𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝗼𝚖

Back in Jiaye City.

The Che family of four returned to their mansion from the Lian Mansion rather late.

Che Xiao, previously known as Ling Yun, adapted quite quickly to his new identity. He was well-read and knew how to behave properly in front of his parents, and also behaved politely when visiting the Lian’s. Moreover, he admired his elder brother, Che Yun, a lot.

As for his foster father who had kidnapped him, Che Xiao said he couldn’t bring himself to hate him, but he also wouldn’t consider him as his father anymore.

When they entered the mansion, his parents surrounded Che Xiao, one on each side, as they continued to chat. It seemed like they had so much to say to each other.

Che Yun trailed behind them alone. He slowed his pace, watching them gradually fade into the distance.

Suddenly, Che Xiao stopped, turned around, and called out to him. “Big brother!”

“Your big brother must be thinking about serious matters, don’t disturb him.” Che’s mother’s gentle voice resounded in Che Yun’s ears. He slowed down his pace even further.

Eventually, the three figures disappeared from his sight. He slowly walked along the small path and entered the garden.

After sitting alone by the pond for a while, Che Yun heard footsteps behind him. His eyes hardened, and his hand instantly clasped the hilt of his sword.

“It’s me.”

A tall, slender figure appeared in the moonlight, causing Che Yun to pause, a frown on his face, “I thought Master had left earlier.”

If Su Liang and Gu Ling were here, they could immediately recognize that the “Master” Che Yun referred to was Gu Ling’s master, Nangong Lin.

Nangong Lin approached and patted Che Yun’s shoulder, “I was so close to Jiaye City, how could I not visit you? However, because you didn’t allow me to reveal your true identity to Gu Ling, I had no other option but to avoid them.” “Is their departure today related to Master?” Che Yun asked.

Nangong Lin nodded, “Qianqian is seriously ill. I came specifically to invite Su

Liang to treat her.”

With a frown on his face, Che Yun asked, “Didn’t Master say her health had improved the last time?”

Nangong Lin let out a deep sigh, “That was last year’s story. Her health deteriorated after the New Year and when she heard about Gu Ling and Su

Liang’s marriage, I decided to come.”

“I haven’t seen her yet…” Che Yun murmured.

Nangong Lin sighed again, “I’ve always wanted you to reunite with your sister, but you couldn’t leave and she couldn’t move. After I meet you, I must leave right away to avoid arousing Gu Ling and Su Liang’s suspicion. They’re both very smart people. Even though I taught Gu Ling martial arts, he doesn’t fully trust me. Are you alright?”

Staring at the dark water surface, Che Yun gave a self-mocking laugh, “What does being alright mean?”

“I’ve asked you many times before, now I’ll ask you again. You can come with me and get out of Situ Xie’s control, are you still not willing?” Nangong Lin asked with a furrowed brow.

“Leave? And go where?” Che Yun asked softly.

Nangong Lin sighed, “Go to Yin Country, or anywhere. You can be with Qianqian. Don’t you want to see her? You both were born together, you were taken away by Situ Xie, and your mother handed Qianqian over to me before she leaves. I made a vow to your mother that I would find you and protect you.”

“I want to but I can’t right now,” Che Yun shook his head, “Situ Xie is my grandfather and Situ Han is my father. To this day, I still don’t know what Situ Xie’s ultimate goal is for using me. He suddenly allowed Che Xiao to return home, but the real Che Yun is still in his hands.’

Nangon Lin shook his head repeatedly, “None of this is your fault. You haven’t done anything wrong to the Che family, so why do you have to torment yourself?”

With a faint smile, Che Yun said, “Master, there’s no need to say any more. The

Che family has raised me. Until the real Che Yun returns, I won’t leave.”

“What if Situ Xie asks you to betray Qian Country? What if he asks you to do things that are morally reprehensible? Will you still listen to him?” Nangong Lin asked.

However, it seemed as if Che Yun hadn’t heard Nangong Lin’s question and suddenly said, “I’m really envious of Gu Ling.”

Nangong Lin was taken aback, “You… you can’t possibly like Su Liang, too?”

It seemed like Che Yun was only momentarily insensible. His gaze soon regained its tranquility. “Master is overthinking, I’m just envious that Gu Ling isn’t controlled by Situ Xie.”

“If I tell him that you two are supposed to be siblings because your mother gave birth to twins, he will definitely help you, ” Nan Gong Lin stated.

“Master should leave,” Che Yun turned his back, “Please tell my sister to take care of herself. I assure you I’ll meet her..”
