Ms. Yu: "Master Qing Yong, you've grown up."
Qing Yong: "Ms. Yu, you mean I've grown sideways!"
— Qing Yong reunites with Ms. Yu[src]

Qing Yong (Chinese: 清永; pinyin: Qīng Yǒng) was the cousin of Dao Ming Zhuang and Si, and nephew of Feng. His parents divorced when he was in high school. He began living on his own shortly after and had little to no contact with his family from then on. Qing Yong maintained a cheerful personality despite his circumstances.

Biography[]

Early life[]

Qing Yong was the only child of his mother. As a child, he visited the Dao Ming mansion and presumably met his cousins, Zhuang and Si. His parents divorced while he was in high school. They each remarried after and neither wanted Qing Yong to live with them. His parents provided him financial support so he began live on his own.[1]

Young adulthood[]

Some years later, Qing Yong had continued to live on his own. One day, Ms. Yu came to visit him along with Si and Mei Zuo. Qing Yong was very happy to see Ms. Yu and greeted her enthusiastically. After Qing Yong chatted with Ms. Yu for several minutes, Si suddenly began tugging on his face to take off his "mask." Ms. Yu and Mei Zuo then attempted to hold Si back. Unbeknownst to Qing Yong, Si's mother Dao Ming Feng had hired someone to impersonate Qing Yong and attempt to seduce Si's girlfriend, Dong Shan Cai.[1]

Physical appearance[]

Qing Yong had a stocky built. When Ms. Yu commented on how he had grown, he replied back that he had grown "sideways" since he was child. He had short black hair, cropped closely to his head. Qing Yong had a round face with dark brown eyes and a pronounced nose.

Personality and traits[]

Qing Yong was notably a happy and good-natured person, despite what happened between him and his parents. He was extremely cheerful when he greeted Ms. Yu after not seeing her for several years. Qing Yong was also straightforward and honest. He was around the same age as Si, but was the opposite of the hot-tempered Si in many ways.

Etymology[]

Qing Yong (清永) is written identically to the given name of his manga counterpart. The first character (清) means "pure," "clear," etc.[2] The second character (永) means "eternal," "to prolong," or "forever."[3]
