Arrived at Qingzhou 6

Qi Qingyao asked, "What were their expressions like when they learned that you're still alive?"

"Some were pleasantly surprised, but some were also disappointed." Heir Pei would not say that much to anyone else normally, but he somehow really wanted to tell Qi Qingyao the truth. He said, "Someone also asked me indirectly about the heavenly physician who healed me."

"Did you tell them who it was?" Qi Qingyao asked.

Heir Pei could not help but laugh. "Why would I? They wouldn't believe me if I told them, anyway."

"Oh."

Heir Pei left after visiting for a short while. Before he left, he looked at the man who was wearing the Ox-head mask. Curiosity filled him, but he did not force the man to remove his mask.

Everyone was too tired, so they did not go out that afternoon. They sat down and drank tea before Li Qing called Qi Qingyao over. 

He said that the Heir wanted to tell her something.
