Falling in Love Online with an Ancient General

On Friday morning, after finishing her morning class, Feng Qingyi returned to the villa.

Opening the door, Feng Qingyi had expected to see the usual mess, but was surprised to find the living room spotlessly clean, as if it had just been tidied up.

Feng Qingci hadn't been back for several days, so it couldn't have been him who cleaned.

Nan Yue didn't seem like the type to voluntarily clean either. Feng Qingyi looked around in confusion, not seeing any sign of Nan Yue or anyone else.

Feng Qingyi climbed the stairs towards her room. At her door, she took out her key and was about to open it when she heard Qin Yuchuan's voice.

"Qingqing, you're back!"

Feng Qingyi turned around to see Qin Yuchuan dressed in black, with Nan Yue behind him.

"Why are you here?"

Qin Yuchuan: "I had nothing to do today, so I thought I'd come see you."

Feng Qingyi opened the door, pulled Qin Yuchuan inside, and shut Nan Yue out.

Qin Yuchuan looked at Feng Qingyi's actions: "What's wrong?"

"Remember to keep your distance from her. She's just a nuisance. If it weren't for my mom, I would have kicked her out long ago," Feng Qingyi complained.

Qin Yuchuan: "No matter what, guests should be treated with proper etiquette. This isn't right."

"...I don't care if it's right or not. I just don't like her. What were you doing with her just now?" Feng Qingyi asked.

Qin Yuchuan sat down on a nearby sofa, "Is Qingqing jealous?"

"I'm not jealous, I'm just asking. Stay away from her." Feng Qingyi felt that the way Nan Yue had looked at him earlier was a bit off.

Qin Yuchuan nodded, "Alright. I was going to the study earlier but found it locked, so I went to sit on the rooftop. She followed me up there, but we only exchanged a few words."

Feng Qingyi remembered the clean living room, "Did you clean downstairs?"

Qin Yuchuan shook his head, "She did."

"She knows how to clean?" Feng Qingyi couldn't believe it.

Qin Yuchuan said: "When I first came in, I mentioned this was my house, and she volunteered to clean. I assume she's the one who made it look like this, so I didn't stop her."

"However, she seemed to reveal some unfavorable information about you, so I stopped talking to her after that."

"...She's always trying to slander me, she's been like this since we were young. She hasn't changed a bit even now." This was why Feng Qingyi found her so annoying.

Qin Yuchuan: "Don't be upset. Don't let these irrelevant people affect your mood. I'll change clothes and we can go for a walk."

Feng Qingyi rummaged through the closet and found a set of casual clothes for Qin Yuchuan, "Change here, I'll wait outside."

Qin Yuchuan nodded, "Okay."

Feng Qingyi walked out of the room and saw Nan Yue standing to the side.

"What are you doing here?"

Nan Yue asked: "What's your relationship with him?"

"He's my boyfriend. You can forget about any little schemes you're planning!" Feng Qingyi said.

"Feng Qingyi, when did you get a boyfriend?"

She actually had such a handsome boyfriend, who seemed to come from a good family too. How did she always get all the good things?

But in the past, she had managed to take away the things Feng Qingyi had. This time should be no exception.

Feng Qingyi didn't even look at her, "It's none of your business."

Qin Yuchuan quickly came out in his changed clothes, "Qingqing, let's go!"

Nan Yue: "Cousin, where are you going?"

"Where we're going has nothing to do with you," Feng Qingyi said, pulling Qin Yuchuan towards the stairs.

Nan Yue followed them down.

When Feng Qingyi and Qin Yuchuan reached the door, they found Nan Yue had followed them out, but both ignored her.

"Yu, it's already 11:30. Shall we go to a restaurant? How about I take you for some rice noodles?" Feng Qingyi asked.

Qin Yuchuan nodded, "Sure, whatever you like."

The two walked in front, with Nan Yue following closely behind. They arrived at a rice noodle restaurant this way.

Entering the shop, the waiter looked at the three of them: "Table for three?"

Feng Qingyi: "Two!"

Nan Yue: "We're together."

The waiter looked at Qin Yuchuan for confirmation. Qin Yuchuan spoke up, "Two people."

Nan Yue angrily stomped her foot and found a seat by herself.

Feng Qingyi and Qin Yuchuan sat down facing each other.

"You don't have anything to do today?" Feng Qingyi asked.

Qin Yuchuan: "Nothing during the day, but we need to discuss strategies tonight."

"Tonight? Will it be very late again?" Feng Qingyi asked.

Qin Yuchuan: "That day we had important matters to discuss. It won't be like that today."

"I feel like your dark circles have gotten worse. You might turn into a panda in a few days!" Feng Qingyi reached out to poke Qin Yuchuan's face.

Qin Yuchuan caught her hand, "Really?"

"...Yes, if you keep this up, I might start disliking you," Feng Qingyi said.

Qin Yuchuan chuckled, "I'll be more mindful in the future."

Nan Yue, who had originally sat far from Feng Qingyi and Qin Yuchuan, moved to an empty chair next to them and started secretly taking photos with her phone.

Qin Yuchuan noticed her actions, "Should we stop her?"

Feng Qingyi shook her head, "Ignore her. The more attention you pay her, the more emboldened she becomes. I've concluded that the best way to deal with people like her is to not engage at all."

Hearing Feng Qingyi say this, Qin Yuchuan stopped looking in her direction.

The steaming hot rice noodles were served, and Feng Qingyi and Qin Yuchuan picked up their chopsticks and began eating.

Qin Yuchuan looked at the bright red bowl in front of Feng Qingyi, "Is it spicy?"

Feng Qingyi picked up a piece of vegetable from her bowl and fed it to Qin Yuchuan, "Try it!"

Qin Yuchuan ate the vegetable, and his expression changed instantly.

Feng Qingyi quickly went to the refrigerator to get a bottle of water, opened it, and handed it to him.

"Drink some water quickly. This spicy and numbing flavor is much hotter than the hotpot we had last time. You'd better stick to your mildly spicy one!" Feng Qingyi said, stifling a laugh.

Qin Yuchuan took the water and drank a couple of sips before recovering. Looking at the girl across from him trying to hide her laughter, Qin Yuchuan sighed.

"Did you do that on purpose?"

Feng Qingyi said with a smile: "How could I? You clearly looked like you wanted to try it earlier. You even asked if it was spicy. I was just letting you experience it for yourself, wasn't I?"

Qin Yuchuan shook his head helplessly, "You naughty girl!"

Feng Qingyi had already started eating in big mouthfuls. Qin Yuchuan also picked up his chopsticks and tasted the noodles in his bowl. The flavor was just right for him.

Watching their interaction, Nan Yue felt even more dissatisfied with Feng Qingyi. What right did she have?

Grandpa and grandma always saved the best things for her. Whatever she wanted, her parents would buy for her.

While the things Nan Yue wanted, she had to fight for herself.

She knew they didn't like her, but that didn't matter to her.

As long as she could get what she wanted, she felt none of that was important.

Feng Qingyi felt the resentful gaze from the side and looked over, but Nan Yue had already lowered her head.

After the two finished eating, they walked out of the noodle shop chatting and laughing. Nan Yue, who hadn't finished eating, quickly paid her bill and followed them out.

Feng Qingyi turned back and saw the person following behind them. Although she could ignore her, it was indeed affecting her mood.

"Do you have any way to shake her off?" Feng Qingyi asked quietly.

Qin Yuchuan observed the surroundings, "Are you sure you want to lose her?"

"Mm-hmm." They had finally managed to go on a date, but having an annoyance following behind wasn't ideal.

Qin Yuchuan gripped Feng Qingyi's hand tightly, "Then let's run fast."

"...Is that the best you can come up with?" She thought he might have a better plan.

Qin Yuchuan: "The method might be a bit crude, but it'll work."

"Alright, let's run!" Feng Qingyi said.

Qin Yuchuan held Feng Qingyi's hand as they sprinted away. They ran for half an hour, long since losing sight of Nan Yue behind them.

Feng Qingyi leaned against Qin Yuchuan, panting heavily, "How are you so amazing? You ran for so long without even breaking a sweat."

Qin Yuchuan: "It's nothing special. Anyone in the military can do this. It seems Qingqing's stamina isn't very good though!"

"...That's because your legs are longer and you run too fast. If I were running alone, I could easily go for half an hour."

Her martial arts courses were nearly complete, and compared to ordinary people, she was already quite formidable. However, the person before her was clearly not within the realm of ordinary people.

Qin Yuchuan patted Feng Qingyi's back, "Mm, our Qingyi is the most amazing!"

Feng Qingyi grumbled, "...You're talking to me like I'm a child."

Qin Yuchuan changed the subject, "It seems quite lively up ahead. Shall we go take a look?"

Feng Qingyi looked up and realized they had run all the way to the entrance of an amusement park. It seemed they could have some fun this afternoon.

"That's an amusement park. There are lots of fun things inside. Let's go in and take a look together."

Feng Qingyi, who had been feeling tired, suddenly felt revitalized at the sight of the amusement park. She grabbed Qin Yuchuan's hand and headed towards the entrance.

As they entered the park, Feng Qingyi spotted stalls selling small headbands and hair clips near the entrance.

She stopped at one of the stalls and chose a cute lion headband. "Yu, lower your head."

Qin Yuchuan obediently lowered his head, and Feng Qingyi quickly placed the lion headband on him. "I think this suits you perfectly. You're not allowed to take it off!"

"Alright, I won't," Qin Yuchuan agreed. Looking around, he noticed that everyone, regardless of gender, was wearing similar accessories. Assuming it was a local custom, he didn't think much of it.

Feng Qingyi then picked out two more headbands. "Which do you think looks better, this rabbit or this panda?"

Qin Yuchuan stared at both for a long while, deliberating carefully before saying, "They both look good."

"You have to choose one of the two," Feng Qingyi insisted.

Qin Yuchuan pointed at the rabbit headband. "Then this white one. It suits you well."

"Shopkeeper, how much for this panda headband and the lion headband he's wearing?"

Feng Qingyi promptly put the panda headband on her own head.
