Enchantress Amongst Alchemists: Ghost King’s Concubine Chapter 324

Chapter 324 – Jealous Zang Qing Xue Part 2

Mu Ru Yue withdrew her hand and asked with raised brows, “Zi Qian Jing, why did you come to my room so late in the night?”

“I wanted to sleep with you.” The youth looked pitifully at Mu Ru Yue as he said with slight unease.

He said it as though it were a really simple request, like asking for food and water. It was like a man and woman sleeping together was the most ordinary matter.

Mu Ru Yue scrutinized the youth.

She didn’t see any indecent intent in his eyes. It was just grief from being abandoned…

“Zi Qian Jing, how can a man and woman sleep on the same bed?”

Zi Qian Jing smiled faintly. “Can’t you just treat me as your son?”

“I can’t give birth to such a grown-up son.” Mu Ru Yue’s expression darkened as she looked grimly at him and commented, “Jing Er, do you really want someone to be your mother so badly?”

Zi Qian Jing expressed sadness with his eyes as he heard her words. “I just solely want you to be my mother. My parents left me when I was five. I was then captured by a woman that loved my father and was held captive for so many years. If it wasn’t for my aunt rescuing me, I wouldn’t have been able to regain my freedom.”

‘Aunt had used up all of her power to save me, thus leading to the downfall of her health to the point where she lost her body…’

Mu Ru Yue’s heart softened. Why was Zi Qian Jing’s circ.u.mstances so similar to her son’s in her past life? She knew quite a lot about her past life from Nangong Zi Feng, even though she had been clueless about it at the start.

Love… It could really drive people insane.

“Where are your parents?”

“I am looking for them.” Zi Qian Jing smiled gently. His dazed gaze stayed on Mu Ru Yue as he continued, “Once I find my mother, my father will definitely appear as he will always appear wherever mother is.”

Mu Ru Yue sighed. “I hope you will be able to find your mother soon and have a family reunion.”

‘Family reunion?’

A trace of a complexity appeared in Zi Qian Jing’s eyes. Wasn’t it due to his trying to find his parents that he had waited so long? Furthermore, his doting grandparents wouldn’t ever be able to appear before him…

“I will definitely find them with your blessings.”

Moreover, he had already found her…

“Jing Er, what about your aunt? Where did she go after saving you?”

“My aunt, she…” Zi Qian Jing focused on the young girl’s impeccable appearance and smiled lightly. “She went to a place I don’t know of for now. But she is also looking for mother so I believe that all of us will be reunite. My aunt is the sole person that survived the calamity of my entire family. Excluding my parents and I, it had been annihilated.”

Zi Qian Jing’s expression turned grim as his smile faded gradually.

‘Zi Feng!’

Boundless killing intent surged in his heart just by thinking of that name.

He was only five at that time…

Yet, he was captured by that malevolent woman and tossed before his father and mother, limbless. But to personally see his parents vanish beneath heaven’s calamity, the pain from the amputation was nothing.

That scene was still so vivid that his heart couldn’t help but shudder. He still felt a heart-wrenching pain from thinking about that scene.

Zi Qian JIng slowly closed his eyes and took in a deep breath, then exhaled it to suppress the intense killing intent in his heart.

“What kind of person is your aunt?”

Mu Ru Yue wasn’t the type to ask for a person’s full details. It was unknown to even herself why she asked such a question, but something seemed to be drawing her closer to understanding these matters.
