Start a mysterious island
#1215 - Promise (two chapters in one)
Regarding Qin Mucheng's return home, Lin Li expressed his attitude and then waited for the other party's answer.
I thought the two would be very angry after hearing these words, but that was not the case.
The expressions on Butler Qin and the captain of the guard did not change much, as if all this was within their expectations.
After Lin Li finished speaking, after waiting for more than ten seconds, Butler Qin put down the tea in his hand and said, "The matter of the young lady's marriage has been cancelled."
Lin Li looked at Butler Qin in surprise and asked doubtfully, "Really?"
Butler Qin nodded affirmatively and said, "This is what our master meant. He has never lied to the young lady.
Since the master has said so, the young lady's marriage from now on will be based on her wishes."
Lin Li nodded and said, "I'll talk to Qin Muqing later and ask her if she's willing to go back with you."
"Please tell the young lady that our lady is very worried about her. She has been missing her day and night since she left home and has become sick."
Lin Li looked at the two people who left and said to himself, "It seems that Qin Muqing has to go home."
When Butler Qin and the captain of the guard came to the road outside, the two men walked towards the carriage in the distance without saying a word.
After getting on the carriage, the coachman drove the carriage forward.
The captain of the guard, who had been silent, said, "Will what you just said convince the young lady to go back with us?"
Butler Qin said confidently, "Now that the master doesn't force her to get married, and the lady is sick because she misses her, the young lady will definitely go back with us to visit the lady after she finds out."
…………
The golden morning sun shines into the courtyard of the villa, coating every corner with a layer of warm golden glow.
In the pavilion in the courtyard, after Butler Qin and the captain of the guard left, the beautiful Qin Mucheng walked slowly into the pavilion with heavy steps and a look of uneasiness on her face.
Seeing Qin Mucheng's worried look, Lin Li asked him to sit down, cleared his throat, and then carefully told Qin Mucheng what he had learned.
Qin Muqing was listening quietly at this time. As Lin Li continued to narrate, her expression became more and more solemn. She unconsciously clasped her hands tightly in front of her, and her fingertips turned slightly white due to the force.
On a big tree in the courtyard, a few little sparrows were jumping and playing happily, and their chirping sounds broke the brief silence.
Their round eyes looked at the two people in the pavilion with curiosity, as if they were racking their brains to attract their attention, but unfortunately it was of no use.
After a long time, Qin Muqing took a few deep breaths, and his full chest rose and fell.
She adjusted her mood, slowly raised her head, and said anxiously, "My mother is sick, I have to go home to see her."
Lin Li nodded slightly and said softly, "Your mother is sick, you should go back.
I will send you to find Butler Qin now. You should set off as soon as possible so that you can see your mother earlier and feel more at ease. "
Qin Muqing hummed softly, then she quickly stood up and walked quickly towards the door.
At this moment, the only thing in her mind was her mother's haggard face when she was sick, and her steps became more and more hurried.
Seeing Qin Muqing walking in a hurry, Lin Li shouted, "Aren't you going to pack your luggage?"
Qin Muqing paused when he heard this, turned his head slightly, and shook his head. His voice was filled with a hint of urgency, "No need, those things are not important..."
After saying that, she turned around and walked forward hurriedly.
Lin Li smiled helplessly and followed Qin Muqing's steps.
After the two men went out and came to the roadside, they soon saw an empty carriage parked in the distance.
Lin Li walked forward politely and told the driver the destination in detail.
The coachman nodded slightly, and the two men got on the carriage. Then the coachman waved the whip in his hand, the carriage started slowly, the wheels rolled, the speed gradually increased, and soon it ran for a distance.
Behind a big tree not far away, two figures quietly appeared.
The tall guard frowned and followed the carriage as it drove away. He asked in confusion, "Young lady and Mr. Lin are in such a hurry. Did something serious happen?"
The short guard locked the carriage tightly with a sharp gaze, and replied solemnly, "Don't worry about it for now, just follow me."
After saying that, the two of them flashed and chased in the direction the carriage left.
With their skills, tracking a carriage is not difficult.
…………
A magnificent mansion demonstrates unparalleled majesty amid the hustle and bustle of the city.
Inside the mansion, Butler Qin and the captain of the guard were sitting in the elegantly and warmly decorated tea room, sipping tea leisurely.
The aroma of tea rises up, filling the entire tea room, bringing a sense of comfort.
Suddenly, a servant rushed into the tea room in a panic, his steps were so quick that he almost fell to the ground.
"What's the matter? Why are you so flustered?" Butler Qin put down the tea bowl in his hand, looking a little puzzled, and his tone revealed a hint of the majesty of a butler.
The servant's face was flushed, and his voice was trembling with excitement. He said loudly, "Miss, Miss is back."
Butler Qin and the captain of the guard, who had originally looked calm, heard this and the tea bowls in their hands trembled violently, splashing the scalding hot tea onto the table.
The two looked at each other for a moment, their eyes full of surprise and disbelief, as if they were confirming whether this was just fake news.
Although they had thought that the young lady would be anxious to return home after learning that her mother was ill, they did not expect it to be so soon.
Then they quickly stood up.
"Hurry, take us to see the young lady!" Butler Qin said anxiously, his voice full of joy at the young lady's return.
The servant nodded quickly, turned around and led the way.
Butler Qin and the captain of the guard followed behind in a hurry, with great anticipation in their hearts.
In the reception room, the gorgeous chandelier casts bright and soft light, reflecting on every exquisite furnishing, making the entire reception room sparkle.
The graceful Qin Muqing sat dignifiedly in the main seat, with an elegant posture and noble temperament.
Lin Li sat aside under her warm invitation. Qin Muqing at this moment was completely different from the weak girl Lin Li was familiar with before. She exuded a noble temperament.
Lin Li couldn't help but think to himself, "Why has Qin Muqing changed so much? Could this be her original appearance?
Or did this experience change her so drastically?"
At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside the door, breaking the silence of the living room.
In the blink of an eye, Butler Qin and the captain of the guard appeared at the door.
"Miss!"
The two shouted excitedly in unison, their voices filled with irrepressible joy.
Qin Muqing nodded slightly, a faint smile appeared on his face, and then his expression became serious, "Please arrange it as soon as possible, I want to go back to visit my mother immediately..."
"Okay, miss." Butler Qin responded quickly after hearing this, and then he winked at the captain of the guard beside him.
The captain of the guard understood what he meant and immediately turned around and left quickly to arrange the return trip. His steps were hurried and efficient.
Lin Li looked at everything around him and felt a little uncomfortable.
After Qin Muqing finished explaining the matter, he immediately called out, "Qin Muqing."
Qin Muqing turned around after hearing this, and a smile reappeared on his face. He asked in a gentle voice, "What's wrong?"
Lin Li stood up and said, "I have sent you here safely. Now that the matter is settled, I will take my leave now."
Qin Muqing became anxious when she heard this, her eyes full of reluctance, "Lin Li, don't be in a hurry to leave. I have caused you a lot of trouble during this period. I want to repay you well."
Lin Li smiled and waved his hand. His smile was full of sincerity. He said in a relaxed tone, "When friends help each other, there is no need to talk about repayment. If you are so polite, you don't treat me as a friend."
Qin Muqing was speechless for a moment after hearing this. After hesitating for a while, he said, "I'm going home soon. How about you come with me?"
As soon as these words came out, Butler Qin and the servants present all turned their eyes to Lin Li, and suspicions arose in their hearts, "Could this Mr. Lin be our future son-in-law?"
After all, in the past in the imperial capital, even if those young talents were very attentive to him, Qin Mucheng was still cold towards them.
But now, Qin Mucheng's attitude towards Lin Li is very different. This subtle change makes everyone think a lot.
"Go home with you?" Lin Li was slightly stunned, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He was obviously surprised by Qin Mucheng's proposal.
Qin Muqing realized that her words were a bit abrupt, a blush appeared on her face, and she hurried to explain.
“I want you to come back with me and treat you well.
There are many interesting places in the imperial capital. I can take you around."
Lin Li smiled and shook his head, with a hint of apology in his eyes, "I have no plans to go to the imperial capital yet..."
When Qin Mucheng heard this, the light in his eyes dimmed instantly, and his loss was evident in his words.
Seeing this, Lin Li joked, "When I go to the capital in the future, I will definitely look for you. Don't refuse then. You must be a good host and take me around..."
Qin Muqing forced himself to cheer up and said quickly, "Of course, I will never forget what happened during this period of time. When you come to the imperial capital, I will definitely take you to experience the splendor of the imperial capital."
Lin Li nodded and said with a smile, "That's it. I'll leave first. I'll come to your house to find you when I go to the imperial capital."
After saying that, he stood up and walked out of the living room.
Qin Muqing also stood up and wanted to keep him, but seeing that Lin Li was determined to leave, she had to give up and saw him off all the way.
When the other servants saw the young lady walking out, they subconsciously wanted to follow her. Butler Qin hurriedly stopped them, and his eyes revealed his insight into the atmosphere between the young lady and Lin Li.
It took several minutes to walk from the living room to the front door, which shows how big this mansion is.
The guard at the door greeted Qin Muqing and Lin Li immediately when he saw them approaching.
Lin Li nodded to the guard, then looked at Qin Muqing and said seriously, "Although your physical condition has improved, you only have half a year left.
But don’t worry too much, I’ll find a way to solve it later.”
Qin Muqing said with a smile, "Even if we can't find a solution, it's okay.
I just hope you can promise me that if it really comes to that, you can come and see me for the last time before I die."
Lin Li was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then nodded, "Okay, I promise you."
The two chatted for a few more words at the door, and then Lin Li turned around and walked towards an empty carriage on the side of the road.
He told the coachman where he was going and got on the carriage.
The driver waved the reins, and the carriage slowly turned around. The sound of horse hooves clattered, and it gradually disappeared at the end of the street.
Qin Mucheng stood at the gate of the mansion, his eyes closely following the direction the carriage left, and he was unwilling to look away for a long time until the carriage completely disappeared.
At this time, footsteps were heard behind him, and Butler Qin came to Qin Muqing.
"Miss, do you want to arrange for someone to follow Mr. Lin? If he has anything to do later, he can report to you in time?"
Butler Qin asked softly, his tone showing concern for the young lady.
After Qin Muqing came to his senses, he immediately rejected the proposal, "Don't do that, he doesn't like being followed."
"Okay." Butler Qin nodded in response. His brief answer showed his unconditional obedience to his young lady's decision.
At this time, the captain of the escort came running over, clasped his hands and said, "Miss, the flying boat has been arranged and can set off at any time."
Qin Muqing looked in the direction where Lin Li left again, took a deep breath, and then turned around.
A moment later, a luxurious carriage drove out of the mansion and, surrounded by many guards, sped towards the outside of the city.
…………
On the street, a horse-drawn carriage galloped along, passing through the bustling market and bypassing the bustling crowd.
On both sides of the street, the hawkers' cries and people's laughter and chatter mix together, making the streets and alleys seem very lively.
However, Lin Li had no intention of appreciating all this at the moment. He had only one thought in his mind, which was to find Doctor Wang who had previously prescribed medicine to prolong Qin Mucheng's life, and ask him if he had any way to completely solve Qin Mucheng's illness.
Soon, the carriage slowly stopped in front of a clinic.
Lin Li got out of the car, paid the fare, and walked towards the clinic.
The clinic was filled with a faint herbal aroma, a unique smell mixed with various herbs, and it was not unpleasant.
At this moment, a staff member saw Lin Li coming in, and immediately stepped forward and asked with a smile, "How can I help you?"
Lin Li said politely, "Excuse me, is Doctor Wang here?"
The staff member looked apologetic and said, "I'm sorry, Doctor Wang is out for something."
Lin Li was disappointed, and then asked quickly, "When will he come back?"
The staff shook their heads helplessly, "He didn't say when he would be back when he left."
Lin Li fell silent. His hopes were dashed in an instant. He couldn't help but feel annoyed in his heart, "Why is my luck so bad?"
At this time, another staff member came over and said, "Based on past experience, Doctor Wang will return to the clinic in no more than seven days."
After hearing this, Lin Li's mood improved slightly and he bowed to thank the staff.
Then he walked out of the clinic. The sunlight shining on his body made him feel hot.
Suddenly, a huge figure appeared in the distant sky, immediately attracting passers-by to stop and watch.
"It's a flying boat!" someone shouted in surprise.
