They couldn’t reach a definite conclusion, leaving everyone in a state of unease. They sought solace in one another’s company, particularly the parents, before retiring to their respective rooms.
Once they were alone, Qiao Xuan smiled at Shao Yunduan. “Darling, is Qi really going? And you’re supporting his decision?”
Shao Yunduan smiled bitterly. “It appears that he has made up his mind. Besides, he’s no longer a child. He has the right to make his own choices. It would be cruel to force him to stay…”
Shao Yunduan didn’t want Qi to go, but ultimately it was his own life, and Shao Yunduan couldn’t make decisions on his behalf.
He turned to Qiao Xuan. “What do you think?”
Qiao Xuan pondered for a moment and chuckled. “Qi is quite capable of taking care of himself. He’s not impulsive either. If you can advise him to be low-profile, stay calm, and prioritize his well-being, and remind him of his family whenever he’s about to engage in something dangerous… I believe everything will be fine.”
“Qi is different from his peers. He has a brother like you. Maybe you won’t be able to directly take care of him once you become an Advanced Scholar, but in a few years, you might be able to transfer him out of the camp if it’s possible. Alternatively, we can provide some financial assistance.”
“Just look at us now. We have connections with the Xie Family. If you can ask them to write a recommendation letter for Qi, it could serve as his safeguard in case he encounters any trouble…”
“So, I believe it’s a viable idea.’
“Qi is so talented. It would be a waste for him to stay at home for the rest of his life.’
Qiao Xuan suppressed her urge to reveal her clairvoyant abilities; after all, they were sporadic, and she couldn’t predict Qi’s entire future. If only she could glimpse a small portion of it in secret.
Shao Yunduan smiled. “Your analysis has eased my mind. Indeed, if Qi has made up his mind, he should go. I will approach the Xie Family for a recommendation letter as his safeguard. With his skills, he should be able to protect himself. If the hardships become unbearable, we can find a vvay to bring him home in a few years.”
Qiao Xuan smiled. “That’s a conservative estimate. I almost believe he has the potential to become an official with his talents!”
Shao Yunduan chuckled and shook his head. “That might not be necessary…
the most important thing is that he remains safe and well…”
Qiao Xuan inquired, “So… how do you plan to break this news to our parents?”
Shao Yunduan.
That was indeed a troublesome task!
Qiao Xuan shook her head and raised her hands. “Don’t look at me! I’m not going to do it!”
It was evident that anyone who brought up this topic would face scolding, including Shao Yunduan!
Qiao Xuan had no intention of taking on such a task.
Shao Yunduan was torn between amusement and exasperation. “Of course not you, my dear. I will handle it.”
He wouldn’t allow her to be scolded.
Being his mother’s son, he would shield her from any scolding.
Qiao Xuan chuckled. “You’re the best!”
The couple continued their conversation, sharing laughter, and eventually settled down.
Qi was quite mischievous. He managed to avoid spending much time alone with Ms. Fang and Eldest Uncle these days..
