Ah Qiao is so obedient?

 

Qing Qiao was stunned by this address. She turned around to look at that person.

Mister Qi was dressed in a green robe and was standing in the corner. A harmonious and warm atmosphere surrounded his entire body.

This uncle. Which Qiao are you referring to? Is it the Qiao in Gu Qing Qiao or the Qiao in Qiao Feng?

Qing Qiao didn’t understand what was happening. She saw that Mister Qi kept staring at her. She could only use her own finger to point at herself, “… Me?”

Mister Qi smiled. He waved his hand at Qiao Feng who was at corner of two walls, “You can leave. Don’t keep following her. I’ll explain to the prince.”

And then he turned around to order, “Everyone leave. I have something I want to say to Miss Gu in private.”

Qing Qiao saw that there was clearly no one behind him. She couldn’t help feeling doubtful. Uncle, are you speaking to a ghost?

However, she soon heard a shuffling sound. A few moments later, the voice of a man said, “Yes sir!”

She heard more shuffling sounds, and then there was a flash of a green figure before everything returned to calmness.

Mister Qi turned around to face Qing Qiao and said, “Close your mouth.”

Qing Qiao immediately closed her mouth and looked up at the sky as if nothing had happened.

However, Mister Qi’s next sentence almost made her nose fall. She heard an incomparably plaintive and intimate voice strangely rebuke her, “Ah Qiao is so obedient and good. Could it be that you’ve forgotten even me?

*Sound of terrifying thunder*

The explosion from the lightening bolt was wonderful and splendid. Her charred body from the explosion emitted the scent of burnt coal.

Qing Qiao couldn’t believe her ears. She was struck mute as she looked at Mister Qi in astonishment.

However, the culprit only calmly looked at her with bright eyes and unspeakable joy.

This person at this time could only be described with five words. Happy as mountains during spring.

Qing Qiao looked at the resolute Mister Qi who didn’t look like he was joking and the little abacus in her heart started calculating.

Could this be the most popular trope used in transmigration books? Was this Mister Qi Gu Qing Qiao’s previous lover? En, very good. Then, I won’t have any fear with asking him for help. But, no. This can’t be right! When I transmigrated here, the body was only ten years old. How could this body possible have an unforgettable love story with this uncle? Could it be that this uncle is a lolicon? Is he an old cow that likes to bite tender grass?

As she thought about this, she felt injustice. Ai, author! Why did you arrange a prior lover with a mediocre appearance? Whenever people transmigrate into the female lead’s body, isn’t the childhood sweetheart suppose to be as refreshing and bright as water and incredibly beautiful? Even if there’s an age difference, he should still be the best pear tree out of all pear trees. The female lead was a tender begonia flower that couldn’t be casually pressured and pushed down!

(T/N: The old cow eating fresh grass and the pear tree and begonia flower is referencing a satirical Chinese poem about this eighty year old man who marries an eighteen year old girl to be his concubine.)

Look at “The Tale of Genji” written by Murasaki Shikibu, a female poet. Look at Rin and Sesshomaru…

(T/N: Rin and Sesshomaru are from the anime/manga “Inuyasha”. Rin is a little girl that Sesshomaru, a beautiful demon that’s over 500 years old, adopts. Below is a picture of the two. I’m not sure why she mentions”The Tale of Genji”.)

As she was temporarily indulging in wave after wave of fantasy, she unexpectedly heard another shattering round of thunder.

“Obedient Ah Qiao, you still haven’t remembered me? I went through so much trouble taking care of you back then. I fed you milk and changed your diapers. Did you actually forget everything?”

Mister Qi looked up at the sky in frustration and sighed deeply, “How hateful!”

*Sound of crying* Author, I don’t want to see you anymore! Why did you have to break the fantasy in this girl’s heart? Is there bad blood between us? I just knew you had bad intentions!

Unexpectedly, this old friend was a nanny. Qing Qiao took a deep breath. With her red eyes, she looked as if was going to cry, “… Little Qiao had a very serious illness when I was ten years old. When I recovered and woke up, I didn’t remember anything…”

Mister Qi wasn’t surpised. He faintly smiled and said, “So, that matter was true. I thought this was nonsense that your father had said to outsiders!”

After he said this, he stepped closer, hugged her, and said regretfully, “I haven’t seen you in ten years. My obedient Ah Qiao has grown up and has become beautiful. General Xu’s careful education and care wasn’t in vain.”

(T/N: Just in case, since this was mentioned so long ago, General Xu is Qing Qiao’s grandfather.)

Little by little, Qing Qiao finally learned that Mister Qi was her grandfather’s disciple. Mister Qi had taken care of her back when she still had a mouthful of baby teeth. He could sort of be considered as her elder. She didn’t know why, but when she was five years old, he broke away from officialdom and traveled the martial arts world by himself. In the end, he created a new identity for himself as Wan Shi Tong.

“So many years have passed since then, you probably experienced many things.” Mister Qi ruffled her hair with affection in his eyes, “Obedient Ah Qiao has changed into a weird and imaginative person and has also accidentally become Prince Duan’s future wife. Are you very happy with this?”

Eh? You also know that my engagement to Duan Yu was unintentional on my part? This Wan Shi Tong’s ability really shouldn’t be underestimated.

Qing Qiao softly buried her head in this uncle’s chest and acted cutely spoiled. She completely looked like a young girl who wanted to say something, but wasn’t sure if she should say it, “… If Mister Qi could agree to do one thing for me, little Qiao will naturally become even happier.”

Mister Qi lifted up her face and lightly knocked her head. He said with a smile, “Little girl with a stomach full of evil tricks, what do you want me to find out for you?”

Qing Qiao thought that success was in sight. As she was opening her mouth to speak her wish, she heard an icy cold voice say, “If you really say your request, you’ll have to sell your body to him for the rest of your life.”

She turned around. She saw Duan Yu standing in the corner and staring at them without moving. His entire body was chilly and he was emitting vicious and evil currents.

“… Prince has come here so quickly.” Mister Qi shrugged his shoulders. He quietly move his hands to hold little Qiao’s hands at her waist, “Ah Qiao and I are old friends that haven’t seen each other in ten years, so I only wanted to peacefully talk with her. Why did you go through the trouble of following me here?”

Duan Yu started at the big hand that was placed on little Qiao’s waist with narrow eyes. With a raised voice, he said, “Mister Qi, I know that you’re looking for little Qiao to help you with that task. Don’t forget. I definitely won’t agree to it.”

As he said this, he didn’t overlook Qiao Qing. He fiercely glanced at her, “Are you still not coming over here?!”

Qing Qiao first looked at Mister Qi, then she glanced at Duan Yu. After comparing their expressions, she finally obediently walked over to Duan Yu. It couldn’t be helped. This guy’s complexion looked so smelly, even the smell of septic tanks wasn’t as bad.

Mister Qi didn’t stop her. He only faintly smiled and leisurely said, “What if Ah Qiao is willing? Prince Duan, you can’t bind her to your side forever.”

Duan Yu snorted coldly, looked at him with contempt in his eyes, and didn’t say any superfluous words.

Listening to their words, Qing Qiao felt mystified as if she was amidst clouds and mist. She couldn’t resist poking out half of her curious head from behind Duan Yu, “What are you two talking about? Mister Qi, what is that you want me to do?”

Duan Yu immediately turned his head to glare at her. There was a heavy warning in his phoenix eyes.

Perhaps, he was afraid that she wouldn’t stay behind him. He tightly held her soft hand. The strength of his grasp made her grimace in pain and want to bitterly weep.

“It hurts! It hurts!” Qing Qiao pitifully looked at Duan Yu to beg for mercy, “Quell your anger! Calm down!”

Mister Qi couldn’t help laughing as he pacified, “Obedient Ah Qiao, don’t be scared. I just want you to help me take care of a child. It isn’t a difficult task like ascending the heavens. As a reward, I’ll investigate any one matter that you want. Are you satisfied with these terms?”

Any. One. Matter?!

Qing Qiao was bursting with joy from the pie that had fallen from the heavens and smashed into her. She disregarded the danger that her hand was being clutched so hard that blood would soon be squeezed out. She hurriedly nodded to show her agreement, “Very satisfied. Extremely satisfied.”

Duan Yu was so angry that his entire body was trembling. He viciously flung away her hand and turned around to leave.

“Don’t be tense and nervous. I’m only going to help Mister Qi take care of a child.” She thought about it. No matter what, she and this prince had a “love as deep as the Butterfly Lovers”. If she was going to act out a play, she might as well do the entire set.

Qing Qiao hastily turned around to looked at Duan Yu and said some gentle words to comfort him, “… Since Mister Qi had taken care of me when I was a child, its only reasonable for me to help him with this matter.”

Duan Yu was extremely angry and was the opposite of calm. He turned around and fixed his gaze on her. His face was unfathomable, “Are you sure that you won’t regret this later?”

“Why would I regret this?” Qing Qiao was confused.

Duan Yu hesitated for a moment, then he sighed and reached out with his hand to hold her closely in his embrace, “… You’re so obsessive about this. It would be unsuitable for this prince to say anything. I just hate to part with you.”

“Prince?” Qing Qiao was at a loss from this sudden and unexpected confession. She could only turn her head to embarrassedly look at Mister Qi, “This… Who does Mister Qi want me to take care of? About how old is the child?”
