“Sigh….”
Su Qingluo sighed deeply, “Fate is predestined; since they have not discovered that their biological daughter has been replaced, it is the will of heaven. It is not yet time for me to meet them.”
“Ha ha, master, you are quite open-minded.”
The little kingfisher chortled, fluttering its tiny wings and flew onto the kang bed, its head tucked into its feathers to sleep.
“Yin’er, are you angry?”
Su Qingluo chuckled at the proud little pet, reaching out to poke its feathers.
“Hmph.’
The little kingfisher huffed, snuggling up and turning away from her.
“Hehe.”
Su Qingluo was amused by its little fury, then put away the Night Pearl, lay down fully dressed, pulled over the blanket, closed her eyes, and began to confide in it.
“Yin’er, it’s not that I don’t want to find them. It’s been ten years since the incident happened. We have no evidence. How can they believe that I am their daughter based on my words alone?”
“Moreover, they have raised that girl for eight years. Even if her temper is bad, she is still the child they have loved for eight years. The bond between them is not easily severed.”
“Just like my adoptive parents to me, even though they know I’m not their biological child, they still love me sincerely. I remember every bit of love in my heart over the past eight years; I’ve never forgotten.”
The faint starlight sprinkled on the kang bed, enveloping the peaceful girl. The little kingfisher ruffled its feathers, revealing its little head from under its wing, peered at its master, then jumped onto her chest and curled up.
“Yin’er, are you no longer angry?”
Su Qingluo opened her eyes, gently stroking its feathers.
“Mm-hm.”
The little kingfisher closed its eyes and hummed contentedly.
“Yin’er, I have a task for you.”
Su Qingluo tapped the little kingfisher’s head with affection, “You go investigate this Luo Zhan. I think he’s a martial artist, not as simple as he appears. Keep an eye on him for a while to see what power he has behind him.”
“Mm-hm.”
Given a new task, the little kingfisher’s eyes sparkled, immediately putting the Duke of Zhen’s mansion out of its mind.
“Tell me as soon as you find out anything. He has an unusual affection for me, giving me a jade flute and trying to get close. We need to know all about him.”
“Mm-hm, master, rest assured, leave this to me.” The little kingfisher slapped its chest in assurance.
“I trust you.”
Su Qingluo, looking at it affectionately, closed her eyes, “Let’s sleep. Classes start again tomorrow; we have to get up early.”
“Mm-hm.”
Snugly curling into a ball, the little kingfisher closed its eyes, continuing to bask under the starlight, absorbing the endless spiritual energy.
The academy has a break every ten days, for two days at a time.
The students who made it into the academy in the spring, mostly from wealthy families, generally have properties and farms in the countryside.
Even the closest towns are a considerable distance from the academy, with the nearest Furong Town still requiring a shichen’s travel by carriage.
As the rich students couldn’t return home every day, they lived in nearby villages with their attendants, returning home only during days of rest.
After the holidays, Su Qingluo, backpack in tow, happy as can be, returned to the academy for classes.
Not long after she settled in, Xu Xiujin excitedly told her that his parents had given their consent for him to come back home half a day later on the next holiday so that he could go hunting in the woods with her.
Of course, Su Qingluo welcomed him wholeheartedly and told him many interesting anecdotes about hunting. The two of them talked and laughed together, chatting happily.
Upon entering the classroom with a long face, seeing the cheerful expressions on her classmates, Xu Wan’er felt a sudden pang of grief, ready to burst out in tears.
As the legitimate daughter of the family, her mother was very strict and would not allow her to frolic around..
