"Your Highness." Water called out to Night Emperor Shang, who was walking in front.
Upon hearing this, Night Emperor Shang regained his wits. Seeing that it was Shui Ruo, he was somewhat surprised.
"Why did you come out?"
"Didn't you say that no one would be watching here? So I came out. " Shui gave a gentle smile as he looked at Night Emperor Shang, extremely harmless.
It had been a long time since he saw Shui Yuehan smile like that, and Night Emperor Shang was startled. Somehow, he recalled the first time he saw her. At that time, she was like a frightened little fox. She was very careful and wanted to scheme for him to let go of her in the shadows.
That look of hers was truly beautiful and captivating.
Regardless of whether it was because of his injuries that she did not abandon him, or because when she saw Night Emperor Shang, she hurriedly left him. These were all things that made him extremely fond of her.
But people do change. When he wanted her more and more, he would force her tighter. In the end, there was no turning back. And she, too. Because she was more and more afraid of him, and because she was hurt, she became more and more ruthless. She coldly refused to like him, and she also refused to see him again.
How long has it been? How long had it been since he last saw her smile so pure and kind?
"You … What do you want? " Instinctively, Nightmare couldn't help but ask.
Intuitively, Night Emperor Shang asked.
Shui Long was also startled when he heard this. He did not expect him to be so direct and could not help but find it funny. "What? I must want something from you, right? "
"No, it's just that when I see you smiling, I can't help but want to ask if you have anything you want." He lifted his hand slightly, and the hair that had fallen when she ran over brushed past her ears. Then, with a smile, he took a step back. "You ran very quickly, there should be something you want to say to me, right?"
"You're so smart that I don't know what to say." Shui Ruo was a little embarrassed by his actions, and said with a helpless smile.
"Eh? You still have time to be embarrassed? " With such an unscientific appearance, Night Emperor Shang gazed at the water, causing it to be both angry and amused.
However, in the next moment, he also became serious.
"What should I do now?" Shui Sheng looked at the man and asked seriously.
Was this really the problem? After hearing the carefree question, Night Emperor Shang instantly understood. It should be said that the moment she appeared, he had already guessed it.
After all, aside from this matter, there wouldn't be any other matter that she would take the initiative to look for him, right?
As he thought of this, Night Emperor Shang couldn't help but feel somewhat helpless.
He then looked at Shui Ruo, his gaze softening, "It's very simple. If you trust me, then you can wait peacefully in the mansion. This matter will soon be over."
"Really?" Shui Yuehan was skeptical.
"Trust me." Night Emperor Shang's gaze was sincere.
Shui Long looked at the man's eyes and sighed after a moment of silence. Then, he slowly hugged onto the man and spoke with a very soft voice and a hint of helplessness, "It's not that I don't want to believe it, but I believe it too much. In the end, there's nothing to believe. "Well, tell me what you think?"
Shui Yuehan's tone was so soft, so heart-wrenching.
As Nighttime listened, his heartbeat quickened. He lowered his head and looked at her, his gaze complex.
"The crux of the matter is still the phoenix nest. We can only wait. But... "If you can, I hope you won't disturb me again."
Night Emperor Shang bitterly smiled, then pushed away the person he had always wanted to embrace.
"It's not my first time meeting you, nor is it your first time being together with me. I know how much you hate me, and for you, the person truly worth entrusting is the Night Emperor, right? But he can't casually bring you with him like me, and he definitely won't express his love for you. He just stayed silent and did some undesirable things behind his back, but even so, you still chose him. Under the circumstances, would it be possible for you not to do these things to me? I'm afraid that I will do something that I shouldn't have done. "
The man's tone was very calm, but it carried a trace of helplessness.
He could never refuse Shui Ruo. Perhaps it was because he knew this that Shui Ruo had come looking for him.
He was pushed aside by the Emperor of the Night, and laughed out loud.
She had originally wanted to see what the Night Emperor would do, but she had thought of many possibilities. She had never thought that he would solemnly push her away. With an appearance as though he could no longer bear any more harm, it made her want to laugh.
"Don't laugh!" Being mocked by Shui Ruo, Night Emperor Shang's face reddened slightly.
Seeing him like this, Shui Ruo laughed even harder.
"Seriously, how cute are you exactly?"
"You!" Night Emperor Shang became stifled, and was somewhat speechless.
"Forget it, I won't joke with you." I thought you'd like that, but since you don't like it, forget it. I believe your words, so I am willing to wait at the Jing King Manor, but I hope that the result of this wait will not be disappointment. " Shui Ruo's words came out without hesitation. Just like her character.
He would hesitate before making a decision, but he would never regret it once he made a decision. Or perhaps, even if he regretted it, he wouldn't choose to turn back.
"An Xin, I won't let you wait for nothing." Night Emperor Shang's smile was brilliant.
A cold wind blew, and the corner of his clothes floated in the wind. Seeing the unhurried flow of water, Emperor Shang took off his outer robes and draped them over Shui You's body. He said gently, "The night is cold. Go back quickly. I'm here." You just need to stay by my side.
Night Emperor Shang did not finish his words, and he left. He was afraid that if he continued to stare into the water, he would not be able to resist and would embrace her, then no longer want to let go.
He was truly unsuitable for water. He was just like the Night Emperor's flames.
Both he and Ye Huangyan were not good people, and they had many suitors by their side. Some of them became very scary because of their feelings, just like Lady Die'er and Wan-Er back in the day. Once he failed to control those who liked him, he would bring harm to those he loved.
On this point, Night Emperor Yan was not worried.
He would not be intimate with others, nor would he reveal his face that could be compared to a monster. His personality was cold, and he decided that whatever he chose would be his entire life.
They all said that if you like someone, you must make that person happy. If so, letting Shui Ruo live happily was also an option. At the very least, you could see her happy to the point that she was a hundred years old.
As this thought flashed through his mind, Night Emperor Shang clenched his fist, his gaze turning colder by several degrees. He seemed to have made up his mind.
What is love?
Can you catch it? Can feel it? It was his lover. No one could guess the feelings of love, and no one could grasp them in their hands.
Everyone was being played by their emotions. No one was the winner. What was there was only a happy ending that made them love each other.
"Young Master, can I ask you for a favor?"
Feng Xi would never forget the look of anticipation on Wan'er's face at the feast just now.
Then, he naturally asked what it was.
"I, I would like to ask Young Master to help me ask JingWang out to swim with me, is that possible?"
The woman's apprehensive appearance was very cute, just like the person back then.
Simple and full of hope.
However, it was this expression that broke his heart.
Perhaps the heavens were playing with him?
Once upon a time, that woman who had caused him so much pain had also said the same thing.
That eccentric but intelligent girl, after seeing someone she shouldn't have met, fell in love with a man she shouldn't have loved. After that, she ended up walking on a road of no return.
Now, this person was the same as that person.
Ridiculous!
"Hey, are you there?" Outside, the man's voice sounded. It wasn't an inquiry, but a notification.
That was because after he said those words, he pushed open the door and entered.
Pushing the door open, what entered his sight was darkness.
Inside the room, a man sat by the window. He did not turn on the light, nor did he say anything. It was as if he was waiting for Night Emperor Shang to speak first.
"What are you doing?" Night Emperor Shang wrinkled his brow.
"Nothing, I'm just thinking about life." Feng Xi sneered.
"What do you mean?" Night Emperor Shang was puzzled.
"You did that on purpose?" The man continued.
"What on purpose?" Night Emperor Shang became increasingly confused.
"You know that she's the same as Die'er, and you know that she likes you, so you intentionally called me over, right?" The man's gaze was ice-cold as he looked at the Night Emperor.
Hearing this, Night Emperor Shang frowned.
"The reason why I came to find you was because you would like her. A woman's heart is very delicate. That would make her change. [I don't want you to feel that pain again. I just believe that you can change my mind.]
Emperor Shang looked at Feng Xi and said coldly.
Feng Xi fell silent. He did not believe Emperor Ye Shang's words.
Back then, this person had said that he was not interested in Die'er, and at the same time, had caused Die'er to fall for him. That incident had then occurred.
"Feng Xi, I respect you for your beauty. I hope you won't disappoint me." I believe that you are very clear about who you are going to blame for what happened that year.
As he looked at the man, he seemed to be reminiscing about the Phoenix Nest Junior High Scholars from back then.
That year. Even the thirteenth princess held him in high regard. When Feng Xi was in the imperial court, the current famous Shangguan Qing had gone crazy somewhere, but now?
Shangguan Qing had been pursued by the people of the imperial court to become the new generation's young master, but this person?
It was because of the matter of a woman all those years ago that had ended up in this state.
It wasn't because he felt that it was unfair, but because he felt that it was a pity. It would be a pity if such a person continued to be like this.
"Night Emperor Shang, can I trust you?"
Perhaps it was because the Night Emperor's gaze was too helpless, or perhaps it was because Feng Xi himself knew that he was in the wrong, so, just when he thought there was no hope, Feng Xi spoke up.
He asked back with the same sarcastic attitude.
But for Night Emperor Shang, this was enough.
It was better to be harsh on the heart than to keep it sealed.
He had the confidence to deal with such a person. As he thought about this, a smile appeared on Night Emperor Shang's face. Exquisite and mysterious.
"Do you think I have any reason to lie to you? Originally, Die'er was different from Wan'er, and now, I am also different. Back then, Die'er was very willful because of your love for her. But now, Wan'er has nothing at all. She just needs someone to treat her well. In the past, I didn't put anything in my eyes. But now, I have someone that is even more important than my own life. "So, don't worry."
As he spoke to the end, a trace of gentleness flashed across his eyes.
Although he didn't say who it was, Feng Xi immediately guessed who it was.
The water was long!
If there was anyone who could make the noble Jing Wang lower his status, it would probably be that person who looked somewhat fake.
The man seemed to be thinking about how to be nice to her at all times, and then doing things that way.
It was selfish, but it had to be said that she had a charisma that made people unable to stop her from doing anything.
"I really want to retort." Feng Xi gloated.
