MingXian, A different love story of Wei Ying

Chapter 3

Third Person's POV
The morning arrived and the Jiang family was on the pier bidding Wei Ying goodbye on her journey, even Madam Yu was there. "A-Ying, take good care of yourself, don't get hurt and eat properly." Jiang Fengmian said and Wei Ying nodded before he gave her a qiankun pouch filled with a lot of money for the journey. Then Jiang Yanli took over, she had already handed her the lotus root and rib soup in a lunch box which was placed in another qiankun pouch. "A-Ying, promise me you wouldn't get hurt, and won't put yourself in unnecessary danger." Yanli said as she held Wei Ying's hands in her own hands. "Don't worry, shijie! I won't get hurt!" Wei Ying smiled brightly at her shijie. Yanli smiled back at her and hugged her younger sister tightly, who reciprocated the hug just as tightly. Jiang Cheng took over next after they pulled away from the hug. "Shijie, come back soon!" Jiang Cheng said and hugged his shijie just as tightly as his older sister. "Haha, I will, A-Cheng! Don't worry, I'll be back soon!" Wei Ying laughed a little before she pulled back from the hug slightly, and kissed her shidi's forehead. Jiang Cheng blushed, flustered at his Shijie's affection towards him. "Take care of yourself, and don't get yourself into any trouble." Madam Yu said and Wei Ying smiled at her before she hugged her tightly. Yu Ziyuan and everyone else's eyes widened before Yu Ziyuan hugged Wei Ying back tightly and kissed the crown of her head and then closed her eyes with a smile. The others stared at the scene, before they shared a look and smiled at each other. "I'll take my leave now." Wei Ying said after pulling away from the hug. Then she bowed to the Sect Leader and Sect Madam before she hopped on her sword, waving at her sworn siblings and parent figures before she speeded away. After reaching the mainland on the other side of Lotus Cove, Wei Ying hopped off her sword and sheathed it before she ran into the nearest forest.

Slumping against a tree, Wei Ying let her tears out, she missed her family already and she felt horrible for leaving them. On the other hand, just as Wei Ying couldn't be seen from the pier anymore, Yanli started to sob quietly and Jiang Cheng quickly wiped his own tears away before he hugged his A-Jie. While the children comforted each other, their parents turned away from the scene. Yu Ziyuan wiped her tears away quickly and Jiang Fengmian cleared his throat before he looked at his wife and he too hugged his wife for some comfort. Yu Ziyuan's eyes widened before she too hugged her husband with a slight smile and fondly thought of We Ying, who was the cause of this. 'Brat.' Yu Ziyuan thought fondly. Back on the mainland, Wei Ying spent several minutes crying, letting out all of her emotions and also processing the fact that she had indeed time travelled back into the past before shit happened and before everything started to go downhill. After several minutes breaking down, Wei Ying finally stopped crying and got up, walking further into the forest. Wei Ying walked through the forest until she came across a familiar river, Wei Ying sat down there by the river's shore and started to wash up. Wei Ying checked if the water was clean and it was. Wei Ying first checked if she had water, her water containers were filled completely so she washed up instead. She washed her face with the cold water and rested there for awhile as it had taken her more than an hour to get to the mainland at her fastest speed. This river was the one where she along with the juniors, her little ducklings, had spent time playing in the water at a night hunt she taken them to, after taking care of the problem. The memory brought a fond smile up to her lips.

Wei Ying got up after resting for 30 minutes and made her way to her grandmother's mountain. Wei Ying hadn't lied to the Jiang Family, she really was going to her mother's master, who was also Wei Ying's grandmother and Cangse's mother. Wei Ying had gone to meet her grandmother in her previous life too, but it was with Lan Wangji at that time. The thought of Lan Zhan made Wei Ying think, Lan Zhan would always hold a piece of Wei Ying's heart just like her Mingjue does. Lan Zhan was after all her husband once upon a time. Wei Ying sighed, in this life she would make sure that Mingjue doesn't die, but she doesn't know if she'll end up with Mingjue, changing the future has its consequences. Perhaps the consequences would be Wei Ying not ending up with her beloved Mingjue, but she won't risk Mingjue's life for her selfish reasons. If Mingjue ends up loving someone else then she would not stop him, she loves Mingjue and forever would, no matter what. Wei Ying shook her head and focused on the road ahead. Wei Ying took out her sword and flew into the air to where she knew her grandmother's mountain is.
