This sentence can have too many interpretations, Qianye stayed on the spot, not knowing how to answer.
Ji Tianqing just sat quietly like that, looked at him quietly, didn't speak anymore, didn't rush for an answer, but didn't let go either. Qianye tried to withdraw his hand, but failed. He hesitated for a moment, without putting any more force, he just put his hand there, feeling the throbbing of new life.
"when did it happen?"
"Great whirlpool, are there other places?"
"I mean, in the maelstrom, when?"
"Do you really need to ask this question? Do you remember?"
"I really... wait, could it be..."
In the maelstrom, there are not many blank spots in Qianye's memory, and obviously, things happened in these blank spots.
Qianye slowly withdrew his hand and grabbed his hair, momentarily flustered. At this time, he suddenly felt a strange feeling, as if something was paying attention to him, but now it disappeared. This little bit of strangeness didn't divert Qianye's attention. He has been thinking about the Maelstrom now, but what is certain is that the blank areas of those memories are still blank.
Outside the void, in the seemingly empty area, two figures slowly emerged, they were Yetong and Twilight. Twilight seemed to be drowning, strangled her own throat, breathed heavily, managed to recover, and then coughed violently again.
After calming down a bit, Twilight took a deep breath and said, "Although I have to admit that you are indeed very powerful now, I really don't want to travel with you, especially in this way."
Yetong said: "It's your luck to experience the space shuttle in advance."
"One time is already too much! I don't want this kind of luck! But, are you going to leave like this and stop watching?"
Ye Tong looked at the floating island in the distance, and said calmly, "I've seen everything I need to see, so what are you doing here? Originally, I wanted to ask you the real purpose of bringing me here, but now, I don't care. let's go!"
Twilight's face changed suddenly, but Yetong's hand was already on her shoulder, and her figure immediately became distorted, as if wrapped in a blister, slowly fading away.
At the moment of disappearing, Twilight kept screaming: "Stop! You can't do this to me, let me go, I can go back by myself..."
"There is still a long way to go..." Nighteye's voice echoed in the void and dissipated.
On the floating island, Qianye had just recovered from the shock. He sat opposite Ji Tianqing, looking at her who was both familiar and unfamiliar, and really didn't know what to say.
"sorry."
Ji Tianqing smiled, stroked her swollen abdomen, and said, "Maybe it's me who should say I'm sorry."
Qianye took a deep breath and said, "If it's not the maelstrom, forget it, everything is just an excuse. Now, what can I do?"
Ji Tianqing looked at Qianye calmly, and said, "At first, I didn't want you to know about this, but gradually, as she grew bigger, my thoughts gradually changed. I want to meet you, I want to tell you, as for What can you do... what can you do?"
Before Qianye could answer, Ji Tianqing said, "She is your daughter, what do you want to do for her?"
Qianye said in a low voice, "I will take care of her and protect her. Then..."
Qianye looked at Ji Tianqing, but didn't speak for a while. Ji Tianqing smiled lightly and said, "Will you take care of me?"
"You come from Zhiji Palace, what else is missing?"
"My child needs a father."
Qianye was silent for a long time, and then said with some difficulty: "I'm sorry, I can't do it."
"Or for her?"
After a while, Qianye nodded.
"I heard that her second awakening of consciousness is likely to be a certain figure of Yongye who existed before the establishment of the empire. Now she is not the person you met in Yongye."
"You know so much."
"During the maelstrom, when you lost consciousness, you often talked about things related to her. If you listen a lot, you will roughly know the things between you."
"At that time, were you awake?"
"Otherwise how do I know who is her father?"
"But why don't you resist?"
Ji Tianqing smiled again, and said, "Do you think I can resist? That's a maelstrom, who can fight against a monster like you? If you succeed, you still won't let me go, I'm half dead by you."
Qianye instinctively wanted to avoid this topic. After calming down, he remembered something and asked, "Why didn't Kuang Lan..."
In the middle of speaking, he immediately stopped, because he thought of a more unacceptable possibility.
Ji Tianqing didn't give him a chance to escape, and said, "How could she stop it? You dealt with her first, and then I wanted to help her, so you succeeded together."
"So, did she, did she?"
"How do I know, you have to ask her yourself."
Qianye reluctantly said, "Maybe it's not such a coincidence."
"Maybe."
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"You don't even remember, why are we talking?"
Qianye buried his face in his palms and sighed heavily.
Ji Tianqing quit, and tapped Qianye's head with the scroll in her hand, saying, "Hey, we are the ones who suffer, why do you still look miserable?"
Qianye raised his head, looked at Ji Tianqing's abdomen, and said, "Tell me, what can I do?"
"What else do you think she needs?"
As the daughter of Qianye and Ji Tianqing, when the little one was born, the most important thing she lacked was talent. And in the Zhiji King's Mansion, what kind of cheats are not available, what kind of resources are lacking, even if it is the guidance of the road of cultivation, who can compare with the Zhiji King who is still the number one king of the human race
So this little guy really doesn't lack anything. She has everything Qianye can give. But Qianye couldn't give what she needed.
Ji Tianqing sighed, and said, "I don't know why, but you are an idiot. How about it, you don't leave tonight, stay with me for one night, and we'll be settled."
"It won't work."
"You don't want to stay?"
"No, it's a different matter. I'll take care of her later."
"I don't need you for this. You just need to stay here tonight, read a book with me, and talk, that's fine."
Sitting beside her, Qianye had a myriad of thoughts, but in the end, he was only entangled with confusion.
The floating island floats in the void, from day to night, from night to dawn.
When the morning sun shone into the valley, Ji Tianqing put down the book in her hand and rubbed her eyes, feeling a little tired. Qianye walked out of the house, holding a tray in his hand, which contained porridge and side dishes.
"There's nothing else in the kitchen but this."
Ji Tianqing smiled slightly, tasted some porridge and some vegetables, and said with a satisfied face, "I never thought you would have such good skills."
"When I was in Yongye before, I had no other means of making a living, so I opened a tavern. I learned cooking at that time, but the bottom-level continent lacks resources, and my knowledge is limited."
"Eat something with me?"
"good."
The two sat opposite each other and finished their breakfast in silence. Qianye felt that after this meal, he didn't know when he would see each other again.
After a while, Ji Tianqing put down the empty bowl and said, "It's almost time, you should go, and I should go back."
"When will it be born?"
"I don't know either. This little guy is very worrying, maybe next month, maybe next year. I hope she comes later, that way, I can worry less in the future."
True geniuses often take longer to conceive than normal. The human race is not as exaggerated as Yongye, but there may be a delay of one or two months.
Before leaving, Qianye hesitated and asked hesitantly, "Do you think I should go and see Kuanglan?"
"Since she didn't say she wanted to find you, then what are you going to do? It's just a sudden increase in embarrassment. And as far as I know, since she came out of the maelstrom, there has been no news of her in the social circle. I don't know if the Li family hid her. Where is it? You don't have to worry about her, she has a sister who is an empress, how could something happen? You, you should worry about yourself first. I heard that you are going to Yonglu again, so be careful. Don't accidentally die, the little guy will lose his father." Ji Tianqing urged earnestly, but it sounded awkward to me.
"You look like this, won't there be any problems in the family?"
"Not many people know about it. Even if people know about it, who would dare to make irresponsible remarks? The little guy's father is already a god general!"
The time had come, Qianye left the small courtyard feeling a sense of loss. Ji Ruofei was still standing there waiting, all day and night, he had been standing there without moving.
After the floating ship lifted off, it quickly left the floating island behind. Qianye on the ship was uneasy and asked, "Has she lived there all this time?"
"That's beyond what I can know." Ji Ruofei seemed unwilling to disclose any information.
Qianye's heart was heavy, and he stopped talking. The airship sailed all the way in silence when the cabin was full, and finally arrived in Pengcheng.
Pengcheng is an important arms distribution center of the empire. In the two days since Qianye left, Song Zining had already submitted the materials listed on the list, and arranged for a cargo spaceship to be shipped. It can also be seen that Zhao Jundu has indeed grasped the real power at this moment, and the transfer order he issued has a very high priority, directly inserted in front of the transfer orders from various aspects.
On the freight yard, Qianye and Song Zining stood side by side, watching boxes of supplies being loaded onto the floating ship, but they were not happy at all.
Song Zining was holding a list in his hand, checking each item. He was so busy that he didn't have time to talk to Qianye. But Qianye suddenly said: "Did you already know?"
"Know what?" Song Zining looked innocent. But under Qianye's gaze, he was still defeated and sighed: "Okay, I already know. But I'm afraid I'll tell you too early, you won't be able to bear it."
"Why don't you say such an important thing?! What should I do now?"
"Would it change anything if I told you earlier?"
Qianye opened his mouth, unable to speak.
Song Zining glanced at him and said, "Speaking of which, isn't this actually a good thing?"
"What's so good? Tianqing has a child before she's married, and I'm afraid she will be talked about in the future."
"If you know it's your child, I'm afraid there will be no criticism, but envy!"
