Togiya Zite took a sip of water and spit the blood into the golden basin brought by the attendant.
Jing Jiaren turned away stiffly: "Sometimes, the multiple-choice questions life gives you are not a and b, but b and b+. Bad, and worse."
"..."
"What do you think I should choose? I can't have everything."
Dong Gong Zi Te seemed to have remembered something, his whole body became startled, and his eyes were a little blank.
Such familiar words were what he said to Gong Zihua...
"I can only choose one happiness. I have already chosen Ximen Longting. I can't take care of... other people." Jing Jiaren tried her best to calm down, "So please don't tell me any news about him."
Dong Gong Zi Che slowly came back to his senses: "Her Royal Highness the Princess is very sensible."
"But I very much hope...for the sake of the fact that he has raised you, let him live."
Higashikata smiled softly: "For the sake of raising me?"
"I know that you suffered a lot when you were on the island. But if Mr. Dong Gong hadn't adopted you, you might have all starved to death on a street somewhere now."
With Tohnomiya Toru's ability, how could he starve to death? He didn't starve to death despite the harsh living environment on the island.
On the other hand, Mong Zihua...if she hadn't met him in this life, even if she hadn't gone to the island, it would have been difficult to survive as an orphan.
"You also have no chance to obtain the underground kingdom and be unable to display your ambitions... Think about it, you have gained something for your efforts. Since you want to become the heir to the East Palace, you should be prepared to endure so much hardship."
"Her Royal Highness the Princess is very good at being a lobbyist." Higashikata smiled softly and waved his black gloves, indicating that there was no need to say more.
Jing Jiaren lowered her eyes: "I'm just stating the truth."
"Mr. Donggong, how long do you plan to stay on the ground this time?" Wilson asked politely.
"Soon," Higashikata narrowed his eyes, "I will leave after staying for a while."
"Then what are you doing here?"
"I want to take a look at this city..." Higashikata Toru looked out the window and took a good look at this city that was full of sunshine and that Miyako Hua was attached to. This place was where his lover lived from now on.
And he will be forever isolated from the sun.
Jing Jiaren said sarcastically: "I hope Mr. Donggong won't look at it and think that the ground is better, so he will become more greedy. If people's hearts are not enough, the snake will swallow the elephant, and the world will end with the mantis catching the cicada."
Higashikata Toru gave no explanation, and everyone thought he was an ambitious politician.
"If it's convenient, I'd like to visit your manor."
Jing Jiaren frowned, what on earth did Donggong Ziche want to do here this time, and why did he want to visit her manor?
Unable to decide whether Jing Jiaren would agree or not, Dong Gongziche got up and walked upstairs after having enough rest...
Jing Jiaren had the intuition that Higashikata Tetsu had come with a purpose, looked at Wilson and followed him.
Sure enough, Dong Gongziche walked in the manor with ease - he had controlled Jing Jiaren to move around this manor, so he knew it well.
Higashikawa went up to the fourth floor and walked towards the room where Gongzihua lived in the manor.
After walking for a while, his steps were obviously weak... was he seriously injured?
If it hadn't been for Sun's kick, it wouldn't have been possible for Togiya Toru to be injured. He concealed it very well.
Dong Gongzi Che stopped in front of the door and said coldly: "Your Highness, please stay."
