Chapter 1149: A Lifetime of Humiliation V
Back then, Fu Qingjiu was the most famous prostitute of a brothel whereas Nan Xian was a teenager who stood next to the Ninth Emperor.
With a quick glance, Fu Qingjiu spotted Nan Xian. He was so ethereal and as graceful as an immortal. She could only see him in her eyes.
Fu Qingjiu had never seen such a handsome, gentle, and docile man. Since then, Nan Xian had a special place in her heart and she was not capable of getting him out of her mind for a long time. She had even refused to serve anyone.
She ended up living all by herself for her whole life. In this life, despite hundreds of thousands of people, Fu Qingjiu saw no one in her eyes but Nan Xian… Just like she did thousands of years ago.
However… thousands of years ago, Nan Changfeng had the Ninth Emperor by his side. The Ninth Emperor—a lady that was renowned throughout the realm, a terrifying lady who made all the ladies go crazy over her.
At that time, simply no one knew that the Ninth Emperor was a lady. They only knew that Nan Changfeng was her boy toy.
No matter how much Fu Qingjiu missed Nan Xian, she did not dare to do anything to him or let anyone know her feelings toward him. No one dared to steal anything from the Ninth Emperor.
However, this time, Fu Qingjiu was way too bold. Not only did she impersonate someone who was out of her league, but she had also even fallen for the wrong person.
Fu Qingjiu’s body curled up helplessly, painful tears broke free from her eyes. A sense of loneliness seized her as if her entire body was dominated by endless sorrow and misery.
Under the moonlight, a gloomy atmosphere filled the air. The sound of ghosts weeping could be heard and the sound of the leaves rustling drifted in the air.
If only Fu Qingjiu knew it earlier that they were not meant to be together, she would never have done all these things.
Apparently, thousands of years ago, Nan Xian did not know Fu Qingjiu. So why did she etch him in her mind and soul? It made Nan Xian look familiar to her, she had even thought that they could continue their relationship from the past life.
In the end, not only did Fu Qingjiu harm her father who had always loved her, but she had also ruined the entire Haitian Kingdom.

A silent night.
Outside the palace, Feng Ruqing suddenly stopped in her tracks. Fu Chen did not stop in time and hit his head on Feng Ruqing’s back. It was so painful that he had nearly broken into tears.
“Don’t the three of you owe me an explanation?”
It seemed that Nan Xian knew what Feng Ruqing was asking. He put his arm around her waist.
Feng Ruqing’s long hair fluttered in the wind, she looked so beautiful and surreal.
“What is it about?” Fu Chen raised his eyes as he asked.
“Like… what is the Ninth Emperor about?” Feng Ruqing smiled brightly.
Fu Chen’s body inexplicably stiffened, uneasiness rose in his heart.
“Qing’er, let’s go home.” Nan Xian turned his head with a faint smile on his face.
Seeing Nan Xian’s smile, all the knots in Feng Ruqing’s stomach were untied. Her eyes overflowed with joy.
“Alright.”
Dumbfounded, Fu Chen could feel a prick in his heart.
Feng Ruqing had given up asking after listening to Nan Xian’s words. If the same thing had happened to Fu Chen, no matter how hard he tried, he could never please Feng Ruqing.
Perhaps, the same thing would work for Qing Han. It was only Fu Chen. No matter what he said, it was a waste of time.
Nan Xian turned his head around to look at the palace gate that was tightly closed. He felt as if he had forgotten something else.
In the dream, everything he saw was related to the Ninth Emperor. Everything that had happened in the past that came into his mind revolved around her. He knew nothing about anything else. Thinking of this, a sense of uneasiness seized him. He frowned and tightened his grip on Feng Ruqing’s waist.
No matter what happened, Nan Xian would protect her for the rest of his life.

On an island outside Tian Shen Manor, a man and a lady were standing high in the air, staring at the door not far away.
They seemed like a couple. The lady was exquisitely gorgeous and bore some semblance to Feng Ruqing.
