I promised Yan Xiaoqing that as long as he helps me rescue Liuchi, I will give him the Dzi beads in the child's body.
As a mother, it is indeed a bit overbearing for me to decide the future of my children without authorization.
But judging from various signs, although immortality is enviable, once it is truly immortal, it may not be a good thing.
If a person lives unhappy every day, immortality is a burden.
In other words, if you are happy, you may be satisfied if you only live for one day.
I don’t want my child to become a monster that never dies, nor do I want him to be doomed to be alone for a lifetime.
Liu Chi glanced at me, with a hint of complexity in his eyes: "Without the Dzi Beads, we are no different from ordinary people."
Hearing his explanation, I breathed a sigh of relief.
That's really great.
Liu Chi seemed to notice something: "Princess, are you hiding something from me? Or did Yan Xiaoqing say something to you?"
I didn’t want him to know about this, but I ignored Liuchi’s IQ. When I denied it to him, he stepped forward and said, “Are you planning to give the child’s Dzi beads to him?”
I hurriedly avoided his questioning eyes and said lightly, "It's nothing."
Liu Chi stared at me for a long time, took a deep breath, and seemed very angry: "Why did you agree to him?"
I think it's worth it to exchange a Dzi bead that won't do any good for my child in exchange for Liuchi's freedom.
Seeing that I was silent, Liu Chi seemed to understand something and took a step back: "Are you doing it for me?"
"Liu Chi, you and Pei Yuan are so good to me. I can't possibly watch you being imprisoned and remain indifferent. I can't convince Xia Yan to let you go free. I can only beg him..."
Liu Chi closed his eyes and tightened his fists in his sleeves, then tightened and loosened again: "Princess... you are so stupid."
"Actually, I have a selfish motive. I don't want my children to be like me in the future..."
To put it bluntly, if I die, my child will have to live alone and helpless in the world. How cruel this is to him.
Liu Chi smiled bitterly: "Liu Chi understands what the princess means."
"Liu Chi, I bought your life with a Dzi Bead. Please cherish it and never be imprisoned by anyone again. Otherwise, my sacrifice will not be worth it."
Liuchi closed his eyes in pain and bowed deeply to me: "Princess, when the child is born, Liuchi will definitely live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and will not ask about anything anymore." After he finished speaking, he looked at me deeply, and I was taken aback.
I was startled by the tenderness in his eyes, the caring look that can only be shown when facing a lover. When I wanted to take a closer look, Liuchi lowered his eyes and concealed all emotions.
"Princess, if there are any changes in the future, you can come to me." After saying that, Liu Chi took out a jade whistle from his sleeve and gave it to me.
I was playing with it in my hand. This whistle was very delicately made and the carvings on it were old. I couldn't help but become curious: "Can you hear me when I blow it?"
If he lived in seclusion in the mountains, he would definitely not be very close to me. Even if I blew up the whistle, he might not be able to hear me.
"Yes." He became determined.
I blew it symbolically, and the whining sound was very pleasant. Liu Chi immediately showed a painful expression.
I was shocked: "Liu Chi, what's wrong with you?"
The whistle was not loud or harsh, but why did he look so uncomfortable?
