Leaf Fei's gaze then fell on Qin Bing, and he felt a wave of curiosity and confusion.
Why had this little girl, instead of going back to sleep after returning, suddenly come over?
Leaf Fei pondered for a long time, but couldn't figure out the key to the matter.
“Brother-in-law, are you really leaving so soon?”
Qin Bing looked at Leaf Fei and walked towards him, speaking.
“Yes, I am.”
Leaf Fei nodded at Qin Bing.
“Brother-in-law, I don’t want you to go… Not only do I not want you to go, but my sister doesn’t want you to go either… Could you stay here for a few more days?”
Qin Bing walked over and directly hugged Leaf Fei’s arm, saying.
“Little girl, aren’t you making things difficult for me?”
Leaf Fei couldn’t help but let out a wry smile upon hearing Qin Bing’s words.
Before Qin Bing could speak further, Leaf Fei added, “Don’t worry, I’m going to break off the engagement. After I break off the second engagement, I promise I’ll come back to visit you.”
“I reckon breaking off the second engagement won’t be as difficult as the first one.”
Leaf Fei said this to Qin Bing.
“Really?”
Qin Bing looked up at Leaf Fei, her eyes glistening with tears.
Seeing her like this, Leaf Fei raised his hand and wiped away her tears.
Why was this little girl so clingy!
To be honest, Leaf Fei hadn’t felt much at first.
But as time went by, Leaf Fei realized that Qin Bing, this little girl, had unknowingly become quite important to him.
Even just now, when she looked at him with teary eyes and said those words, Leaf Fei had felt a flicker of unwillingness to leave, almost agreeing to stay.
However, ultimately, reason told Leaf Fei that he had to leave and couldn't delay any longer.
“Of course it’s true. When has brother-in-law ever lied to you?”
Leaf Fei looked at Qin Bing and gently patted her head.
“Even though the engagement with your sister is broken, I’m still your brother-in-law… If anyone bullies you in the future, you can tell me… I’ll definitely teach them a lesson.”
Leaf Fei said this to Qin Bing with a smile.
“Mhm…”
Qin Bing nodded seriously. Although Leaf Fei said it as a joke, Qin Bing took it to heart.
Afterward, Leaf Fei continued chatting with Qin Bing.
Originally, Leaf Fei had wanted to tell Qin Bing that it was getting late and she should go back to sleep.
However, seeing Qin Bing’s demeanor, it seemed she had no intention of leaving.
Thus, Leaf Fei felt a sense of helplessness.
But Leaf Fei didn’t say anything. After all, he was leaving tomorrow, so he let her have this moment of sentimentality.
After an unknown amount of time, Qin Bing, while talking, could no longer stay awake and fell into a deep sleep.
Leaf Fei, seeing that Qin Bing had fallen asleep, didn’t wake her and gently placed her on the bed.
Then, Leaf Fei got up and moved to sleep on the sofa outside the room.
The night passed uneventfully. The next morning, as dawn broke, Leaf Fei awoke!
Leaf Fei entered the room, glanced at Qin Bing who was still fast asleep, and was about to quietly close the door and leave.
“Brother-in-law… are you leaving?”
However, before Leaf Fei could properly close the door, Qin Bing’s voice was heard.
It turned out Qin Bing was already awake.
Hearing Qin Bing’s call, Leaf Fei’s expression froze for a moment, and he immediately turned around to look at her.
Qin Bing also got up from the bed and came over to Leaf Fei.
“You slept late last night, you should sleep a little more.”
Leaf Fei said to Qin Bing with a smile.
“I’m not sleeping. You’re leaving, how can I sleep?”
Qin Bing shook her head at Leaf Fei and said.
Leaf Fei wore a look of helplessness.
This was making it seem as if he were a villain for leaving.
However, Leaf Fei had so many things to attend to, he had to leave.
An hour later, Leaf Fei had breakfast with the two women.
Afterward, Leaf Fei gave them both a big hug. “I’m leaving. Don’t miss me too much. I’m just a fleeting visitor in your lives, bringing you a period of beautiful moments is enough.”
“Don’t say such sentimental things, and don’t miss me too much. If I have time, I’ll come back to see you.”
Leaf Fei smiled at the two women.
Qin Bing and Qin Lan wanted to say something, but the words caught in their throats.
“Brother-in-law… goodbye!”
After a long pause, Qin Bing took a deep breath and said.
“Leaf Fei, remember your promise, come back often in the future.”
Qin Lan also took a deep breath and said to Leaf Fei.
“I will!”
Leaf Fei smiled at the two women.
Then, seeing that it was getting late, Leaf Fei turned and left.
The two women watched Leaf Fei depart and waved goodbye.
At first, their faces were filled with smiles as they waved to Leaf Fei.
But as Leaf Fei walked further away, the smiles on their faces disappeared, and their eyes turned red.
Eventually, they could no longer suppress their emotions and wept.
Parting is always sad!
However, they also knew in their hearts that Leaf Fei was not someone from their world.
Therefore, Leaf Fei would not stay here forever.
Perhaps, the next time he returned… they would only be able to look up to Leaf Fei.
Before, when Leaf Fei was staying here, they hadn’t felt this way.
But now, with Leaf Fei gone, Qin Bing and Qin Lan realized that his shadow had long been imprinted on their hearts.
It’s just that people are sometimes like this; only when someone leaves do they begin to cherish certain things.
Meanwhile, after bidding farewell to Qin Bing and Qin Lan, Leaf Fei did not walk far before stopping.
“Come out.”
At a certain moment, Leaf Fei spoke out.
And after Leaf Fei spoke, the surroundings remained very quiet.
It was as if there was nothing there.
However, Leaf Fei stopped and stood there.
Initially, Leaf Fei’s expression was rather calm.
But as time passed, Leaf Fei’s expression turned cold.
“If you don’t come out, do you want me to invite you?”
Leaf Fei spoke again.
And after Leaf Fei’s words fell again, the entire scene remained completely silent.
Leaf Fei continued to stand there, waiting.
Swish! Swish!
At a certain moment, Leaf Fei looked up towards a certain spot to his front left.
Although the area was empty, Leaf Fei’s eyes seemed to pierce through the woods, as if seeing something.
“Heh, since you’re not coming out, then you continue. I’m leaving…”
At this moment, Leaf Fei smiled and started walking forward again.
“Stop!”
Just then, the mysterious person in hiding could no longer restrain themselves and appeared directly before Leaf Fei.
Swish!
The person who appeared was clad in black, and their face was no longer masked.
Could this be anyone other than the mysterious woman in black who had attacked Leaf Fei some time ago?
Swish!
After the woman in black appeared, she thrust a short blade directly towards Leaf Fei’s throat.
Leaf Fei watched the incoming blade, still standing there, as if stunned.
Finally, the blade stopped an inch from Leaf Fei’s throat.
The woman stared intently at Leaf Fei, her face extremely cold.
Leaf Fei also looked at her.
Although Leaf Fei had interacted with this woman before, he hadn’t paid much attention to her appearance.
At this moment, Leaf Fei realized that this woman was incredibly beautiful.
To be honest, her looks would rank among the top tier even among exceptionally beautiful women!
But these were not the main points. The most crucial aspect was this:
Such a beautiful woman also possessed such remarkable martial skills. That was simply too much.
What had someone said before?
She could clearly rely on her looks for a living, yet she insisted on relying on her strength.
“Aren’t you afraid I’ll kill you?”
The woman in black looked at Leaf Fei, took a deep breath, and said.
“Could you bear to?”
After the woman in black’s gaze fell upon him, Leaf Fei looked at her and retorted.
“……”
The woman in black was rendered speechless by Leaf Fei’s words.
“Do you really think I wouldn’t dare to kill you? If you think that, then you are gravely mistaken!”
As the woman in black spoke, the expression on her face grew even colder.
And to make her words more convincing,
