Tang Yao's words resounded in Zhong Miao Yi's ears like a thunderclap. He couldn't believe what he had just heard.
She subconsciously reached out to push Tang Yao away. Although there weren't many people on the street at the moment, Zhong Miao Yi was still scared to the point that his heart was beating faster.
"Are you crazy?" She was somewhat blaming him. She was no longer a princess among beauties. Right now, she was a member of the Su Clan. For a married woman to secretly flee, that was even more of a crime!
"Miaoyi, are you happy? "Are you willing to live like this?!" Tang Yao's mind was in a bit of a mess. He should have made this decision a long time ago. Perhaps he had long since requested for the emperor to grant him a marriage at An Ping's estate!
He always thought that there was still a lot of time, always believing that they had a lot of time ahead of them, which was why he made one wrong step after another.
So what if it was Su Zeyi? He did not want to think too much into it. It was because he had thought too much into it that Zhong Miao Yi would suffer so much now, and be framed by Yun Mengqi!
Zhong Miao Yi's heart trembled. Tang Yao's words were like fish bones piercing her heart.
She wasn't happy, and she didn't know what was considered happy. Fate had made a fool of her. The game was far from over, but she no longer seemed as frivolous as she used to be.
Zhong Miao Yi shook her head: "We can't elope. You have your parents and family, and I have my concerns and worries as well, we can't just leave like this, not to mention, I'm a princess of the imperial family. Under such a scandal, the Emperor and the Su Family will do their best to find us, and we'll die!"
Tang Yao grabbed the Zhong Miao Yi, forcing her to calm down. "What if we're already dead?!"
The Zhong Miao Yi was stunned for a moment. She couldn't react to what Tang Yao was saying. "What did you say?"
"I say, what if we are already dead?" Tang Yao's eyes burned with an inexplicable hope. "We can come up with a flawless plan. Didn't Princess Yun Mengqi want you to leave?" She might help us. "
"No." The Zhong Miao Yi denied it, "Yun Mengqi will not help me, she wants me to die, she definitely will not help me, this matter is unworkable, a good living person, how can she die just like that?"
However, Tang Yao refused to let go of this last lifesaving straw. He tightly held onto Zhong Miao Yi's hand and said, "Miaoyi." We have to try, don't we?! You let me go back and think, you let me think! If you think that I can come up with a solution, can we talk about it? "
His eyes were full of longing, longing and grief.
The Zhong Miao Yi was unable to look him in the eyes. It was hard to say for sure. Her deep guilt towards Tang Yao had caused her to be unable to bear the thought of destroying his reverie.
In this stalemate, the Zhong Miao Yi could only compromise and slowly nod her head: "Then we'll agree, but think about it first, if I feel that it won't do, then we can't do that."
After obtaining the approval of the Zhong Miao Yi, Tang Yao immediately revealed a grin. It was as if he had returned to being Qing Zhi's boy.
Zhong Miao Yi was amused by his easily satisfied personality, and the metaphor in her heart was finally resolved.
She couldn't leave for too long, but Tang Yao felt that she was about to leave. He couldn't bear to part with her. He kept staring at the Zhong Miao Yi, as if he wanted to carve her into his bones.
"I have to go back." If she could, she really didn't want to say that.
Tang Yao softly replied. He didn't say anything in response. Instead, he fiercely squeezed her hand and said, "Alright then. I'll be waiting for you here in three days' time."
At that time, Yun Mengqi had also yet to rise. Tang Yao's current position was not at the imperial court yet, so it was the right time for him to slip out and meet Su Zeyi.
Zhong Miao Yi could feel the change in his body. This change made Zhong Miao Yi feel slightly at ease.
She mysteriously agreed, and no longer remembered how she came back to the Su Clan.
When she came back, the back door was the same as when she went out. It was obvious that no one had come to the back door.
It was dark by then, and she walked quickly with her head down. No one paid much attention to her.
Xiao Yao was about to go crazy from anxiety in the courtyard. She walked back and forth, sticking her head out and looking, and sighed as she prayed that the Owner would definitely return safely.
The pleading that she muttered was probably due to the pity of the heavens. This time, Xiao Yao had only recited half of the prayer when she saw the lowered head of the Zhong Miao Yi quickly walk in.
"Thank God! Bodhisattva bless me! " Xiao Yao's heart that was hanging in her throat dropped as she hurriedly helped Zhong Miao Yi into the house. "Madam has finally returned, you scared me to death.
The Zhong Miao Yi was still immersed in the joy of meeting Tang Yao.
Although her rationality told her that it was about time to stop and not go see her again after three days, Tang Yao's emotions would still cause her to tremble with excitement.
She was afraid that Tang Yao would think of something that she couldn't refute, but at the same time, she was looking forward to him taking her away.
With these emotions intertwined, Zhong Miao Yi's hands trembled extremely badly. Xiao Yao held her eyebrows tightly: "Madam, what's wrong?"
The Zhong Miao Yi regained her senses and sat inside the house: "I'm fine, I'm thirsty."
Xiao Yao did not ask any further and quickly poured some water for the Zhong Miao Yi.
After drinking the water, the Zhong Miao Yi asked: "Is Su Zeyi back?"
"Not yet. I heard that the Lord Su barged into the cold palace without permission and brought his wife out. The Emperor is already very angry, but we don't know why he left the Lord Su in the palace these few days." Xiao Yao did not know much, and there was no news of him coming from the palace.
Yun Mengqi also weirdly settled down and did not come looking for trouble with her.
Zhong Miao Yi slightly nodded her head: "Forget it, it's more than enough if I don't come back. Go and find a light colored pajamas for me, I'm a little tired."
She wasn't sleepy at all.
It was just that she did not want to sit here and talk to Xiao Yao anymore. Her mind was a little wandering, afraid that Xiao Yao would see more of her wrongdoings.
As Xiao Yao helped her change her clothes, he complained softly, "Madam, you can't run out like this in the future. If Princess Yun Mengqi finds out, she would definitely have to tell her again.
After all, she had been too reckless in this matter and hadn't considered the consequences too much. She had originally thought that she would be able to return after just a single meeting. Who knew?
Just as Zhong Miao Yi wanted to agree, Xiao Yao shook the clothes she had changed off and prepared to fold them. She took out a scented sachet from within the clothes.
Xiao Yao picked it up, thinking that she did not put it inside her clothes.
Before she could understand what was going on, she was seized by the Zhong Miao Yi. With a slight frown, she actually forgot to return it to Tang Yao.
