1133. Chapter 1133 Needing someone to take care of Jinqing
Chapter 1133. Ask for help and take care of Jin Qing
When the matter came to an end, everyone took a short rest and prepared to leave the next day. Die Xiaoyue received the notice from her servants and learned about Hong Zhao's incident, and immediately rushed back to the palace without stopping.
Stepping into the threshold, the afterglow of the setting sun reflected on the sandpaper, drawing a long slanted shadow on the ground. Xiaoyue looked at Hong Zhao, with her hair scattered and a loose coat, standing upright in front of the window. She never turned around,
But he sensed her arrival.
"You're here, Die Xiaoyue."
"I came over immediately after receiving the news."
Xiaoyue approached step by step, looking left and right but didn't see the figure of that person, and couldn't help but have doubts in her heart.
"Are you okay? Why didn't I see Zhuge Jinqing?"
"Don't worry, I don't have a big problem."
Hong Zhao suddenly turned around. Even though she had been resting frequently in recent days, her face still looked a little pale.
"If you have any physical inconvenience, I won't entertain you. You can sit wherever you like."
"It doesn't matter."
Xiaoyue responded to her request and sat down in her clothes, her golden eyes with profound meaning still resting on Hongzhao.
"You said you are fine, but from my perspective, your body is riddled with holes and your life is still in danger."
Hong Zhao closed his eyes indifferently and spoke indifferently.
"This is none of your business, so you don't have to worry about it. Today, I invited you here because I want to entrust you with something. I also ask you to agree."
"Um?"
Xiaoyue opened her eyes in slight surprise. She was curious, what kind of thing could make the cold and aloof Hong Zhao speak to others for the first time?
"Tell me what is going on."
"It's... Zhuge Jinqing."
Hong Zhao lowered his head and lowered his eyes, tightening his thin lips with a gloomy expression, looking confused and hesitant.
"I would like to ask you to take good care of Zhuge Jinqing for me in the future. Hong Zhao, this is the only request I have for you in this life, and it is also my last request. So, Die Xiaoyue, please agree."
"Why...why did you say that suddenly?"
Die Xiaoyue frowned. Between the lines, she vaguely felt something was wrong, but she couldn't put it into words.
"Are you planning to leave Zhuge Jinqing? Hongzhao, what exactly are you going to do? And...why didn't I see Zhuge Jinqing?"
"Don't worry, Zhuge Jinqing went to a very safe place. And I just have to resolve some personal matters, it's not a big deal. As for you, just continue on the path you should take. I won't accompany you as I wait."
Hong Zhao stood up quickly, straightened his coat, and walked towards the door. The moment he raised his feet, he heard the person behind him making a sharp remark.
"Does Zhuge Jinqing know your decision? And... aren't you afraid that Zhuge Jinqing will hate you? You know, you know Zhuge Jinqing's temper best, why do you still do this?"
Hong Zhao was silent, her straight back fluttering in the evening breeze. After a while, she saw her slowly pouring out her words.
"Sometimes, it's not that you won't do something that makes him object if you know this person. It's just that you know it well and have to do something that is wrong for him. Sometimes, this is also in disguise.
Protection. Die Xiaoyue, among everyone, I only trust you, I hope you will not let me down. I say goodbye now, I hope you will cherish it."
"Hong Zhao...why are you doing this?"
Die Xiaoyue watched her leaving, murmuring to herself with emotion.
"I believe that Zhuge Jinqing would rather accompany you than leave you to fight alone."
The same was true for everyone. Once she said it, she would definitely help her with all her strength. But she thought, I'm afraid Hong Zhao would definitely not agree.
