His Highness the Crown Prince Always Wants to Marry Me

Chapter 217: I Don’t Mind Having a Stepmother

Yu Jing could hear the choking in Yu Qing Qian’s tone and couldn’t help but feel a little sour inwardly too.

His daughter had been with him for more than a decade, and now they were going to temporarily separate. The reluctance was definite, but also unavoidable.

“I’m going to do some things and wander around while I’m at it. I may be back in a year or two, or even three or four.”

Yu Jing paused, then touched Yu Qing Qian’s head and said: “Don’t worry, I’ll send you messages regularly.”

“Mm, if possible, you also need to come see me.” Yu Qing Qian hugged Beauty Dad’s arm and shook it.

Yu Jing smiled and nodded: ‘I will.”

“Daddy, I know you’re hiding something from me, but I won’t ask now. I’ll wait until the day you’re willing to tell me.” Yu Qing Qian couldn’t help but say after thinking about it.

Yu Jing’s body stiffened, and he pondered for a moment before sighing: “I never thought of hiding anything from you, but it’s not the time yet. When you have the cultivation base and strength to shoulder it, I’ll naturally tell you everything.”

There were two hidden meanings in his words, one was about Yu Qing Qian’s mother, and one was about himself.

In fact, Yu Jing never planned to hide the matter about Yu Qing Qian’s mother at first, but his daughter often avoided this issue and never even brought it up. He guessed that she should know about it but was unwilling to mention it was all.

“Alright!” Yu Qing Qian looked up at her beauty dad and said warmly: “Daddy, I’ve already grown up, promise me that no matter what big things you encounter in the future, you won’t bear it alone. We’ll face it together because we’ll always be the closest people to each other.”

Yu Jing’s elegant and handsome face was stained with a deep smile, “Alright, my baby girl has ultimately grown up.”

“By the way, if daddy meets a nice woman while traveling, you can bring her back.” Yu Qing Qian winked at her beauty dad and smiled brightly: “I don’t mind having a stepmother.”

Yu Qing Qian had always believed that her beauty dad, an elegant and talented man with a temperament as gentle as jade, shouldn’t be trapped in his past love net. She hoped that he could meet a better woman—a woman who could understand him and who could walk side by side with him.

She didn’t want to hear any information about that woman from her beauty dad either, and she didn’t mention Chi Mo Ran herself either.

Yu Jing was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Yu Qing Qian to say such a thing.

With a look of helplessness, “Alright, if there’s such a day.”

Yu Qing Qian could tell that Beauty Dad was perfunctory and didn’t say much. Emotional matters couldn’t be rushed. She believed that Beauty Dad would find his own significant other.

“Daddy, my healing skills have improved again. Let me help you check the poison in your body.” Yu Qing Qian said.

Yu Jing stretched out a hand and said, “Alright.”

Yu Qing Qian had a circle of cyan-green light wrapped around her two fingers, caressing Beauty Dad’s pulse.

After a moment, Yu Qing Qian let go of his wrist and breathed a sigh of relief, “Fortunately the poison didn’t spread too fast. Daddy, your previous method of suppressing the poison’s very effective.”

“Mm, I haven’t been in a coma for long periods of time recently either.” Yu Jing nodded. 

“I brought the Serpent Ring Herb back, let’s start refining the potion to detoxify tomorrow.” Yu Qing Qian grabbed beauty dad’s sleeve and said: “Only when all of daddy’s poison is removed can I return to the Academy with a peace of mind and let you travel.”

“Alright, I’ll leave it up to you to extract and purify the antidote this time.” Yu Jing trusted his daughter wholeheartedly.

Yu Qing Qian chuckled: “Sure! But you have to be there to guide me.”

Her wood-class variant ability would be more effective when applied to the detoxifying herbs, so she didn’t refuse.
