My Wife is A Sword God

Chapter 632: Feng’er was always tight-lipped

When the letter was taken out of the envelope, the opening lines read, “Dear brother, greetings…”

Upon seeing this, Qin Feng’s mouth twitched. Why was he being so formal and using such flowery language? It didn’t quite fit with his younger brother’s usual style.

In situations like this, it usually meant one thing: his younger brother had something to ask for in the letter!

As he scanned the contents line by line, Qin Feng gradually revealed a strange expression, and the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but curl slightly.

It turned out that when his younger brother and the Mad Blade were training in the Southern Domain, they happened to run into a group from the Sword Dao Alliance who were heading towards Imperial City.

And it just so happened that that girl Bai Qiu was among the team!

It’s well known that when boys and girls of this age develop feelings for each other, a day apart feels like three autumns, and when they meet again, it’s like igniting a raging fire that can’t be stopped.

Of course, there were no inappropriate scenes.

They were both just beginning to explore the realm of love, and how could the younger brother, with his shy personality, dare to take that step directly?

They only used the excuse of practising to avoid the eyes of others, spending time alone together, enjoying the beauty of nature.

In such interactions, their relationship seemed to be gradually deepening, just waiting for someone to break through that layer of window paper.

Unfortunately, his younger brother’s courage had not yet fully developed, but it was time for the two groups to separate.

One side still needed to continue training and killing demons and ghosts in the Southern Domain, while the other had business to attend to in the Imperial City.

Although not explicitly stated in the letter, the second brother’s deep sense of resignation and reluctance could be read between the lines.

Surely he also hoped to return to the Imperial City with Miss Bai Qiu.

Towards the end of the letter, the second brother wrote: “Elder Brother, as the Sword Dao Alliance has just arrived in Imperial City and has nowhere to settle, I’ve spoken to Miss Bai about staying at the Qin Residence temporarily. I hope you can take care of her when the time comes.”

“Also, please don’t mention anything about Miss Bai and me to our parents for now. I beg you.”

Qin Feng folded the letter, and the two pleas made it clear how shy and awkward his second brother must have felt while writing it.

This feeling couldn’t help but remind him of the early romance from his past life, the feeling of being trapped by his parents?

Seeing Qin Feng’s expression, Second Mother couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Feng’er, what did the letter say? Why are you looking like that?”

Father Qin immediately interjected, “An’er deliberately wrote two letters, and of course the contents are not meant for others to see, my dear, you shouldn’t pry any further. Besides, I think Feng’er has always been tight-lipped and won’t talk about it.”

Just as Qin Feng was about to reveal the contents of the letter, he was praised by Father Qin, which made him reconsider and hold back his words.

Father, you still don’t understand me…

At this moment, Qin Feng felt as if millions of ants were crawling inside his heart, making him extremely uncomfortable.

“Father is right. Since the second brother entrusted me in the letter not to reveal the contents to you, I won’t say anything, of course,” he finally said.

Upon hearing this, both Father Qin and Second Mother’s expressions changed slightly. What could be so important that it needed to be kept secret from them?

Second Mother’s curiosity increased.

Even Father Qin’s expression changed when he saw the envelope.

Qin Feng then asked, “By the way, Second Mother, haven’t there always been suitors coming to propose marriage to Second Brother? Have there been any suitable ones?”

Upon hearing this, the Second Mother sighed and touched her cheek. “Nowadays, the status of our Qin family is getting higher and higher. However, I can’t seem to find any of those who come to me for marriage satisfactory. So I have been avoiding them along with your father.”

“But An’er has been away for a long time and has no fixed place to live. If we don’t settle this marriage matter soon, I can’t help but feel uneasy.”

Qin Feng smiled, “Second Mother, don’t worry. Second Brother already has someone in mind. This letter…”

He stopped halfway through his sentence and hastily covered his mouth, as if he was about to say something he shouldn’t have.

However, this action only made Father Qin and Second Mother more eager to know the contents of the letter.

Qin Feng hurriedly stood up and said, “After dinner, I’ll go train. Parents, please rest early.”

With that, he left the hall.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the letter was left on the table.

The people in the hall looked at each other, no one dared to speak first, but their eyes all fell on the envelope…

In a mountain range in the southern region, Qin An sat on a large rock, his forehead covered in a fine sweat, and gazed in the direction of the Imperial City. He remembered the days he had spent with Miss Bai and couldn’t help but smile with happiness.

He thought of the letter he had sent to his elder brother and felt a pang of regret, “If only I hadn’t told my brother so much.”

After a moment, he comforted himself, “But knowing my brother, the contents of the letter are probably safe from anyone else knowing.”

In Qin An’s eyes, Qin Feng had always been the big brother he admired and respected, and naturally trusted in every way. But he had finally made a mistake…

The next morning, the Qin family gathered in the dining hall for breakfast.

Qin Feng saw the ‘unopened’ letter on the table and tucked it into his chest.

He glanced at the others and casually asked, “I left this thing behind when I was in a hurry last night. None of you looked at it, did you?”

Everyone guiltily avoided eye contact.

Father Qin said sternly, “Feng’er, rest assured. When Qing’er cleaned the hall last night, I specifically told her not to touch it, just to avoid any misunderstanding on your part.”

The others remained silent and bowed their heads to pick up their steaming bowls of porridge.

“That’s good then,” Qin Feng pretended to breathe a sigh of relief.

After a while, when they were all lost in their own thoughts while eating porridge, Qin Feng suddenly spoke up, “Actually, there’s nothing improper in the letter. It’s just that a Mr Ning from Sword Emperor City is coming to visit the Imperial City.” 

“He’ll be staying at the Demon Slaying Department while he’s here. Second brother and that person are old acquaintances, so he asked me to take care of him.”

“Huh?” Everyone was taken aback and then spoke in unison.

Father Qin: “Isn’t he from the Sword Dao Alliance?”

Second Mother: “Isn’t her family name Bai?”

Lan Ningshuang: “How can she be a young master? Isn’t she Junior Sister Bai Qiu?”

Cang Feilan: “Wasn’t she supposed to stay at the Qin residence temporarily?”

Liu Jianli stirred her porridge quietly without saying anything. It wasn’t that she wasn’t curious, but the four of them had already asked all her questions.

“You haven’t read the contents of the letter, have you?” Qin Feng said with a mischievous smile.

Oh no, they fell for it!

The others belatedly realised with embarrassed expressions.

…

Meanwhile, in the Imperial City Palace, in the chamber of the Third Prince.

A guard reported something to the Third Prince, holding a secret message in his hands.

“The Sword Dao Alliance is coming to the Imperial City, led by the Sword Emperor City,” The third prince tapped his fingers on the table, thoughtfully.

“If I remember correctly, Sword Emperor Bai Yan of Sword Emperor City is the strongest of the three major sword clans. With the resources poured into him by the Sword Dao Alliance, he has already reached the second tier.”

“If I can establish a connection with Sword Emperor City, it’s as if I’ve indirectly gained access to the resources of the Sword Dao Alliance. This could help me in the future when I compete with my brother for the throne.”

The guard’s eyes lit up at the words, but he expressed concern: “Sword Emperor Bai Yan has always been indifferent and free-spirited. He may not be willing to get involved with the royal family.”

The Third Prince smiled confidently, “The Sword Emperor has two daughters, one of whom is as famous as Liu Jianli, known as ‘Twin Swords’, named Bai Wushuang.”

“Not long ago, she also underwent the Heaven and Earth Hegemony Confirmation, reaching the Third Stage of  Divine Martial Dao Lineage. She’s truly outstanding.”

“If I can win her heart and make her my concubine, how can Sword Emperor City not lean towards me?”

The guard suddenly understood when he heard this. “Your Highness is wise.”

“Keep a close eye on the movements of the Sword Dao Alliance. When they arrive at the Imperial City, inform me immediately!”

“Understood, Your Highness.”
