Falling in Love Online with an Ancient General

Chapter 151

"This is another world, a place completely different from where you come from. How long have you been here?" Feng Qingyi asked.

Xuanyuan Yan estimated the time, "It should be about six hours."

"...Then you must be hungry. What would you like to eat? I can order some takeout for you."

"Takeout, what's that?" Xuanyuan Yan inquired.

"Takeout is food. Do you prefer mild flavors or spicy ones?" Feng Qingyi explained.

Xuanyuan Yan: "Thank you, Miss Feng. This prince has always preferred mild flavors."

"Alright, I understand. I'll go make you a cup of tea."

The atmosphere became a bit awkward. She really didn't know how to interact with strangers.

Feng Qingyi brought the teacup. Xuanyuan Yan looked at it, seeming somewhat disdainful, but still took a sip.

"The tea in Miss Feng's house doesn't seem very authentic."

"..."

He should be grateful to have anything to drink, yet he's complaining.

That was actually specially bought for Qin Yuchuan. The fact that she made him a cup was already quite courteous.

Feng Qingyi took out her phone again and continued to contact Qin Yuchuan.

[Qingyi: Have you figured out a solution yet?]

[Yuchuan: For some reason, the teleportation array doesn't work on him.]

[Qingyi: ...So what should we do?]

[Qingyi: Are you really okay with me staying alone with him?]

[Qingyi: He even complained about the tea I made.]

[Yuchuan: Your tea does lack some flavor.]

[Qingyi: ...If you keep this up, I'll ignore you. Now, in this situation, can you think of a solution quickly?]

[Yuchuan: Yan's ability to cross over must be due to some special circumstances. Perhaps he'll be able to return in a few days. For now, just let him stay at your place for a while.]

[Qingyi: Ah! I guess that's all we can do for now.]

Xuanyuan Yan noticed the girl sighing beside him, "Has Miss Feng encountered some trouble? You seem so gloomy."

"..." It's all because of suddenly running into you.

Feng Qingyi looked at Xuanyuan Yan's attire, a white robe with his black hair tied up with a hairpin.

Due to falling into the water, his hair looked a bit disheveled, and his white robe had some stains.

"Why don't you take a bath first?" Feng Qingyi suggested.

Xuanyuan Yan stood up, "My apologies. Please lead the way, Miss Feng."

After showing Xuanyuan Yan to the guest room, finding him a set of clothes she had previously bought for Qin Yuchuan, and explaining how to use the facilities in the bathroom, Feng Qingyi returned to the living room.

This situation was truly bizarre. It was supposed to be just between her and Qin Yuchuan, how did Xuanyuan Yan suddenly appear?

By the time the takeout arrived, Xuanyuan Yan had finished his bath.

He came to the living room wearing the clothes Feng Qingyi had found for him.

"Miss Feng, I apologize for the intrusion!"

Feng Qingyi watched him drying his hair with a towel and turned on the air conditioning in the room.

Although it was spring, the temperature at night was still quite low.

"Your dinner has arrived. Please eat first!"

Xuanyuan Yan looked at Feng Qingyi, seemingly asking where the food was.

Feng Qingyi had no choice but to open the takeout containers and set everything out on the dining table for him.

"Please eat."

Xuanyuan Yan sat down on the chair and began eating leisurely.

Considering him a guest, Feng Qingyi sat across from him, playing with her phone while waiting for him to finish.

"Is Miss Feng not eating?" Xuanyuan Yan asked.

Feng Qingyi waved her hand, "I already ate at the cafeteria."

"Did Yuchuan say when this prince can return?" He had fallen into the water today, and Ming Jiu was probably still looking for him. He needed to return soon as there were many matters to attend to.

Feng Qingyi shook her head, "Your arrival here has nothing to do with him, so he can't take you back either. We don't know if you can return or when you'll be able to."

"Then how did Miss Feng go to Shengjing?"

No wonder he had only seen her once and never saw her in Shengjing again. She didn't belong to that world in the first place.

"Qin Yuchuan took me there. We have a means of communication between us."

Xuanyuan Yan recalled her earlier words and vaguely understood something.

"If he can take you there, why can't he bring me back?"

Feng Qingyi thought for a moment, "Perhaps because you came through a different medium, he can't take you back. All you can do now is wait here patiently."

"Then I'll be troubling you for these days."

In this unfamiliar world, he could only stay here and see how things unfold.

Feng Qingyi said, "Qin Yuchuan asked me to look after you, but I have to go to classes every day, so you'll have to stay in the villa for now."

"Being able to stay here is already very good. Thank you for your trouble, Miss Feng."

Xuanyuan Yan's voice was as gentle as a spring breeze, and his face always carried a faint smile.

Even though Feng Qingyi found it quite troublesome to have a stranger suddenly appear in her home, his current impression on her was still quite good.

Moreover, he was Qin Yuchuan's friend, so she would take care of him on Qin Yuchuan's behalf.

"It's no trouble. If you need anything, please let me know."

After dinner, Feng Qingyi cleaned up the dining table.

Xuanyuan Yan stood nearby, "Doesn't Miss Feng have any servants?"

"...No."

"Oh, so Miss Feng takes care of this house all by herself?"

"Yes."

Xuanyuan Yan seemed thoughtful, "Yuchuan is immensely wealthy, but Miss Feng's situation seems rather modest."

"...Your Highness, it's getting late. Let me show you to your room to rest."

Feng Qingyi didn't want to continue the conversation.

Xuanyuan Yan looked at the clothes he was wearing, "Miss Feng, would it be possible to get some more suitable clothes for me tomorrow?"

"The clothes here are all like this. I think these fit you quite well already."

Xuanyuan Yan continued, "If Miss Feng is concerned about finances, there's no need to worry. Once this prince returns to Shengjing, I will certainly repay you."

"It's not about the money. I'll figure something out. For now, let me show you to your room!"

After settling Xuanyuan Yan, Feng Qingyi returned to her own bedroom.

Qin Yuchuan's video call came right on time.

"Qingyi, how is Yan doing now?"

Feng Qingyi sighed, "I've arranged a room for him. He should be going to sleep now."

"He's not familiar with your world. Please be patient with him."

After all, they had been friends for many years. Now that this situation had occurred, he couldn't just ignore it.

But since he couldn't go there himself right now, he could only ask Qingyi to take care of Yan a little.

"...Ah! He actually looked down on my modest home. Although it's indeed a bit humble compared to yours, don't you know how expensive housing prices are these days?" Feng Qingyi grumbled.

Qin Yuchuan smiled and said, "In the future, everything that's mine will be yours."

"Is it true what he said about your family being extremely wealthy?" Feng Qingyi asked curiously.

Qin Yuchuan replied, "What do you think?"

"I feel like your mansion alone must be worth quite a lot. If it were in our capital city, I'm afraid it would take several lifetimes to afford," Feng Qingyi remarked.

"Qingyi, you can set your expectations for me a bit higher. Besides the mansion, I have many other valuable possessions," Qin Yuchuan said.
