“Hey, you shouldn’t move,” Helian Qingyu shouted when he saw Ouyang Qing trying to get up. “Your wound is closed now, but you need to rest. I’ve already asked someone to inform Mrs. Ouyang and your daughter, and they will arrive anytime soon.”
“What happened after I was unconscious?” Ouyang Qing asked as he thought of what Helian Xiong had done. “Did Helian Xiong overtake the Blue Palace?”
“No. I’ve got him in custody now,” Helian Qingyu replied.
“I see.”
Ouyang Qing let out a sigh of relief.
After talking for a while, in came three other people. They were Xu Xiyan, Huo Yunshen, and Jing Ruyue.
“Brother Ouyang, thank you so much,” Jing Ruyue said. “You even got hurt for it.”
“I didn’t do anything. You didn’t have to come all the way to visit me.”
“No, if you had not stood with my father when Helian Xiong was attempting the coup d’etat, we could’ve never taken him down,” Helian Qingyu said. “We don’t even know how to thank you for that.”
“You better thank Jing Xi and her mother. They were the ones who talked me into it.”
Helian Qingyu looked at Jing Xi and Jing Ruyue, and he smiled.
“Of course I do. But did you know that because of this coup d’etat, I was finally able to find myself a little sister?”
Helian Qingyu had already been friends with Jing Xi before everything happened. Their relationship wouldn’t waver even if they were half-siblings.
“For real?”
Ouyang Qing only knew about Helian Wei’s romance with Jing Ruyue, but he did not realize that they had a child together.
“Wait,” Huo Yunshen asked as he looked at Jing Xi. “Is he telling the truth? Why didn’t you tell me about it?”
“I’ve also just learned about it myself. Mum’s the one who wanted me to keep it a secret.” Xu Xiyan smiled awkwardly.
Huo Yunshen grabbed his wife’s hand as he stared at her, unable to believe that she was the daughter of Estan’s President.
He was happy that his wife was finally able to find her long lost father.
When Huo Yunshen thought about how Helian Wei had visited Jing Xi in Zstan and how he had helped them, he guessed that Helian Wei must’ve known about the secret since then.
Some of them turned to look at Jing Ruyue, which made her feel uncomfortable.
Jing Ruyue had tried to keep it a secret but everyone found out in the end.
“All right, let’s stop talking about that.” Jing Ruyue smiled awkwardly. “If there’s nothing else, then I’ll go back to my room now.”
After Jing Ruyue left, it was Xu Xiyan’s turn to smile awkwardly.
“My mum’s embarrassed about it, let’s not talk about it in front of her in the future. Oh, right, Uncle Ouyang, did you know that General Qingyu is now the President?”
“Really? Then I should address you as Mr. President in the future,” Ouyang Qing turned to Helian Qingyu and said.
“No, you can just call me Qingyu like you always do.” Helian Qingyu smiled and turned to Xu Xiyan. “Hey, Jing Xi, are you still calling me General Qingyu? Shouldn’t you change the way you address me too?”
“I get it, Mr. President.”
“Nope, not that.”
“Big bro?”
“That’s more like it.”
