329. Chapter 329 She thinks she is in love with him!
"I...I'm fine, really." Although he wanted to hold back, tears still welled up in Huangfu Jin's eyes in front of him.
"You're crying and you still say you're fine?" Huangfu Jin's voice was very soft, and he reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Can you tell me? What's wrong with you?"
"I..." How could she resist Huangfu Jin's tenderness? She thought - she had fallen in love with him and had unknowingly given her heart away.
But - she didn't dare to admit it, really didn't dare! She really couldn't compete with so many women in the harem for him.
"I..." She frowned, not knowing how to answer.
Huangfu Jin looked at Xiao Qian, who was frowning and hesitant to speak, and he suddenly thought of something.
His eyes lowered and he said in a low voice: "Are you thinking about him?"
"What?" Xiao Qian was a little confused because of Huangfu Jin's words.
Who did Huangfu Jin refer to as "him"? Xiao Qian's eyes were filled with confusion, but then she seemed to understand something.
A wry smile flashed in her eyes, yes, she almost forgot that Huangfu Jin cared very much about the adulterer who she didn't even know who she was.
But that's fine. With the existence of this adulterer, maybe there will be less unnecessary entanglements between her and Huangfu Jin.
But the bitterness in her eyes made Huangfu Jin understand it as helplessness, a kind of helplessness to marry him. Unlike before, this time, Huangfu Jin did not get angry or humiliate her, but pulled her away bitterly.
He let go of her hand, raised his eyelids, looked at Xiao Qian, and said in an unusually calm tone: "In this case, why did you marry me in the first place?"
"I...I don't know."
Even she couldn't understand this. What did the real queen think? Why did she marry the emperor when she clearly had a man in her heart.
However, it might be because she didn't dare to resist the decree. After all, the previous true queen was so timid and even had a father who didn't care for her at all. She didn't have the qualifications or ability to resist.
Otherwise, she probably wouldn't have married Huangfu Jin.
If this is the case...then is there still a chance for Nie Xiaoqian and Huangfu Jin to get to know each other? How could they end up in the current situation where she wants to love him but dare not love him.
