Ao Chenye stared into her eyes, his eyes darkened sternly, and he answered her words with a hint of cold anger in his voice - "Then I can tell you the answer, don't slander Yang Xi with doubts, she has no
She has done anything excessive. If she marries me and is humiliated like this by you, I... will not let you go, let alone that girl Cui'er. You'd better understand what I say!"
It turns out that he came back not to give her a little hope, nor to comfort her because of... those hurtful words he said in the imperial study room before, but just to... make her more desperate, that's all.
Ha... She bet herself on a time and space with no relatives and left her body and mind on him. In the end, she lost the bet.
She took him into her heart and carefully cherished her love for him, but what she got in exchange was such a miserable... ending...
Although she never dared to expect that he would return the same love as hers, she never imagined that she would become bleak.
Closing her eyes, she seemed to see the thunderstorm night last night again. The cold snow and rain seemed to hit her body bit by bit. She saw that her heart was also raining...
But, when it rains, who will hold an umbrella for her?
In my mind, apart from the sound of rain, there was silence and darkness.
In the silence, his heart-piercing cold words came to my ears again: "Bai Keer, I am talking to you, what do you mean by closing your eyes? You are really getting more and more unruly."
Ke'er slowly opened her eyelids. The exhaustion in her heart made her use up almost all her strength to hold her body upright and continue to face him. He was cold, aloof and mighty, so noble.
He is unreachable...
Bai Keer?
He would probably call her by her first and last name so coldly and emotionlessly in the future.
Can a changed title... change everything in the past, including their happy past?
In the face of love, a man's words can overturn everything.
She looked at him quietly, her watery eyes were also very quiet, as quiet as a pool of stagnant water without even a ripple.
After a while, she sighed feebly from her throat, but instead of answering his question, she said - "If I said that the person who kidnapped me last time was ordered by Princess Yang Xi, wouldn't you believe it?
What I said? Do you think it’s me who is slandering her again?”
Ao Chenye's pupils shrank, a hint of darkness flashed across his eyes, and then he returned to coldness. He turned his face slightly to the side and no longer stared at her so aggressively.
Then, with an obviously tough tone, he continued his topic: "I'm not discussing this issue with you now, we are discussing the matter that you and Cui'er just slandered Yang Xi."
Listening to his words and looking at his cold face, a familiar...yet unfamiliar face, Ke'er smiled, but it was a silent smile, a sad smile.
Sure enough, he was partial to Princess Yang Xi to the end.
At this point, she had to admit defeat.
Because, even when he doted on her, she had never seen him favoring her so much.
She really lost, completely lost to Princess Yang Xi.
Ha... He should really like Yang Xi. He has always been interested in her just because of the novelty.
"What you said... I understand, and I understand." Ke'er murmured softly, her voice was very soft, as if she was answering him, but also as if she was speaking to herself.
"That's good." Ao Chenye was finally satisfied with her answer, and raised the corners of his lips slightly, feeling relieved that he could convince her. Perhaps, he felt that he could finally restore the emperor's majesty in front of this disobedient little woman.
Feeling more relaxed.
Then, he suddenly remembered the purpose of his trip. Looking at her watery eyes holding back tears, he hesitated for a moment before opening his mouth to say something, but when he opened his mouth, no word came out.
Seeing his expression that seemed embarrassed and couldn't bear to say anything to her, Ke'er suddenly felt a little ridiculous.
He is already so ruthless, does he still need to put on these fake compassionate faces?
She resisted the urge to sneer, lightly rolled her eyes, no longer looked at his face, and no longer allowed herself to show those worthless pitiful fragility, and said softly and calmly: "What else do you want to say? Is it again?
What are your instructions? If you don't tell me, I might do something wrong and offend others without knowing the rules."
Her voice was very cold, and there was no ups and downs in her words. She was just... so tragic that she wanted more pain to come, just enough at one time. The more painful it was, the more she could retain her sanity so that she would no longer be on top of him.
What to hope for.
Listening to her cold and indifferent tone, looking at her still pale, but I don't know when she no longer looked sad but had such a cold expression, it seemed that she didn't care about anything anymore.
Ao Chenye's mood was suddenly blocked by her cold expression, and he could no longer feel smooth.
His eyebrows twisted slightly unconsciously, his dark eyes narrowed, and a hint of unpleasantness flashed across his handsome face.
He was worried, and he said in a somewhat angry tone: "I will arrange for you to live in the harem in the next two days. Yang Xi will live here then. You ask Cui'er to clean up as soon as possible. Yang Xi won't like to see anything else.
The woman is in Chen Palace."
"Okay." Ke'er agreed simply and neatly, her drooped eyelids never raised even a little bit, not wanting to see his cold, unfamiliar face.
Ao Chenye's expression changed again. He didn't expect that she would agree so readily. The feeling that she seemed to disdain him made his chest feel tight.
Damn it, you are obviously tired of her, why are you still in a bad mood because of her?
He would obviously never pay any attention to a woman who no longer cares!
Annoyed by his uncontrollable reaction, he said with a cold face: "Then you should take care of it."
With that said, he pretended to be indifferent and turned around to leave.
"Wait a minute." Ke'er called him.
Hearing her call, his back straightened and he stood there, his thin lips slightly parted, waiting for her to be reluctant to leave him.
Without looking back, he pretended to be impatient and asked indifferently: "Is there anything else?"
"It's like this. Cui'er said that her family members are very sick. Can you let her stay home for a few more days while she's visiting the family?"
Upon hearing that she was not reluctant to let him leave, the corners of Ao Chenye's lips that had just been raised instantly dropped.
Holding back the uncontrollable breath in his chest, he said with waning spirits: "Tui'er is your maid, you make the decision, I won't care about such trivial matters."
"Then... thank you." Kerr tried very hard to resist the urge to continue talking to him.
"Yeah." He said casually, then strode out of the door.
Watching his figure walking further and further away, she closed her fingers tightly and bit her lower lip to prevent herself from making any more noise.
She was afraid that if she opened her mouth, she would not be able to help crying. She was even more afraid that she would not be able to help but rush to hug him tightly and cry to him about her sadness.
She didn't want to shed any more tears for this heartless man, but his determined back still stung her eyes.
He came in a hurry and left in a hurry, all just for Princess Yangxi.
Now, for her sake, are you not even willing to stay a little longer?
Ke'er's eyes followed his figure until she could no longer see him at the end, and then she sadly looked away.
"Ao Chenye, are you really just treating me... because of your novelty?"
She stretched out her hand and covered her chest tightly, covering the purple crystal he gave her and the little golden dragon in the crystal. Bits and pieces of when they first met appeared in her mind. Those happy times, now, made her feel sad.
My heart aches beyond measure.
Every memory makes her hold on to Amethyst even tighter. Maybe if she holds her tight, those joys won't disappear. Maybe... her heart won't bleed anymore.
It hurts so much again.
Unfortunately, it's not...
Her heart still hurts so much, a pain that will never go back to the past...
…
On the other side, the guard's residence.
Leng Yun's voice sounded in shock: "What did you say? Did I hear it wrong? Say it again!"
One of the guards picked his ears, took a step back in disdain at Leng Yun's thundering voice, and said again - "Boss, you heard that right, the king is really going to marry Princess Yang Xi! Boss
, Didn’t you tell your brothers that Miss Ke’er was the king’s most beloved woman before, and you also said at that time that you would protect Miss Ke’er to the death. What are you going to do now? I just obeyed Chen Palace’s duty.
The brothers who came back said that the king doesn't like Miss Kerr at all now, and the elders have already begun to prepare for the engagement ceremony. Depending on the situation, the master you want to protect, boss, may fall out of favor!"
After confirming that he heard correctly, Leng Yun was completely stunned. He murmured in disbelief: "This...how is this possible? I can clearly see that Wang really loves Miss Kerr, and it is impossible for this to happen suddenly.
It’s impossible...ah, elder?!"
He jumped up as if he suddenly thought of something, and rummaged around in his house for something, but he couldn't find it.
The guard saw his panic, so he stepped forward and said with concern: "Boss, what are you looking for? Is there something missing? Let me help you look for it."
Feeling that the guards were approaching, Leng Yun pulled away a few steps as if being pricked by a hedgehog, and said with a somewhat unnatural expression: "Uh... no, no need, you go out first. The king is about to get married. The palace is about to get married."
It's probably going to be very busy here, so go and take a look."
"Yes, it's time to start working, so I'll leave first." The guard wiped his face to cheer up, and then left with Leng Yun's nod.
Leng Yun immediately closed the door and continued to search the room for what he wanted.
I turned around and couldn't find it.
Finally, he stood in front of a jar on the bookshelf, racking his brains and murmuring: "It's strange, I clearly remember to put the Forgetfulness Pill here... Could it be the elder..."
His doubtful eyes immediately flashed with uncertainty, and he began to feel a little uneasy in his heart.
Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he seemed to see a dark shadow sneaking past the corner of the window.
