3213 The love is uncertain
The middle-aged man was pensive as he listened to her firm tone and unwavering expression as she said these words. Eventually, he let out a sigh. “Fine. If these were the clan’s other children, I would not allow them to behave so recklessly. But, because it is you, I respect your decision and will not obstruct it. When I return to the clan, I will report to the patriarch of the situation.”
He turned to face her and said, “We won’t spend too much time here since you want to stay. Just remember that today’s path is your own choice. No matter how many difficulties, criticisms, or sufferings you face in the future, our Wanyan family cannot and will not be able to rescue you from this difficult circumstance. But if you become exhausted and wish to return home, simply do so; you will always have a place in Wanyan’s family.”
Wanyan Qianhua felt a warm current flow into her heart after hearing his words, and she looked at him solemnly and thanked him. “Thank you, Seventh Uncle. Qianhua understands.”
She understood that because became entangled in this relationship and fell in love first, and because she insisted on staying here, even if she faced criticism in the future as a result of this relationship, her family would be powerless to help her resolve it. In that case, she’s the one who tarnished the entire family’s reputation.
He had shown her the utmost tolerance and support by assuring her that she would always have a place in the Wanyan family.
The young man listened to this and saw the scene, but he couldn’t say anything. What more could he say? What else could he say when the person he loved did not return his affection?
“Then we’ll go back home. Please let the elder know!” The middle-aged man said. After giving her some advice, he told the young man, “Let’s go!”
The man followed his Seventh Uncle out the door. He returned his gaze to Wanyan Qianhua after taking a step. His complicated expression said a thousand words before he simply said, “Take care of yourself, Qianhua.” He strode out as soon as he said this.
Wanyan Qianhua did not see them off but only watched them leave until their figures were out of sight. At this time, however, the elder came in.
After glancing at Wanyan Qianhua, the elder did not appear surprised that she did not leave; instead, he coughed softly and said, “I heard from the disciple that your Seventh Uncle had left, so I came to take a look.”
Wanyan Qianhua nodded. “They’ve left. I will continue to stay here for some time.”
The elder smiled. “That’s all right. So, stay here! You are welcome to stay as long as you want, but the Sect Master…”
“I’ll go to his residence and inform him. Elder does not need to be concerned.” She said this, then turned away after saluting the elder.
The elder stood there stroking his beard and pondering in his heart as he watched Wanyan Qianhua leave: the Sect Master has cultivated for many years, going through countless experiences and trials, but he has never experienced love tribulation. He saved Wanyan Qianhua by chance this time and brought her home. This must have been related to his love tribulation. However, what happens to these two people in the future is still unknown.
From his point of view, Wanyan Qianhua was excellent in every way, and she was a perfect match for the Sect Master. If the two could be together, he would consider his concern to be settled.
After all, after watching the Sect Master alone for so long, he hoped that a woman would accompany him in the years ahead…
