"Ping Wang? "Your servant greets the Ping King …" When Feng Xue saw that it was her master, she was naturally overjoyed. She wanted to get up and report to the wangfei, but when she saw Duan Zitong behind Xiao Yu Xuan, she stopped in her tracks.
"Your servant greets the Seventh Princess." For the past few days, Feng Xue knew Duan Zitong's temper very well. If anything went wrong, she would just scold her. None of the servants in this mansion dared to provoke the favorite princess of the emperor. Even if she wanted to tear down the entire Xiao manor, they could only obey her orders.
"Save it …" "You may leave!" Her ice-cold voice didn't have a trace of warmth, yet Xiao Yuxuan had brazenly come to the Xiao family to find that bitch. He was clearly insulting his in front of these servants, but it didn't matter, she could endure it. One day, she would root out the root of the humiliation he had suffered.
He was too clear of Mu Yan's personality. If he knew about the night between him and Duan Zitong, no matter how he explained himself, no matter how much he asked for her forgiveness, there would be no conclusion to it. Perhaps, he just wanted to take a look at Duan Mu Yan, and that would be it.
"Ping Wang? What are you doing here? " Zi Min was so excited that she suddenly saw Duan Zitong. Her originally excited mood immediately became depressed.
"Zi Min, where is your wangfei?" Xiao Yuxuan looked nervously at Zi Min. Her voice was so weak and lacked any confidence. He really wanted to see Mu Yan, but if he did see her, how would he explain everything?
"Your Highness, please wait." Zi Min opened her mouth respectfully, but her voice was filled with an unconcealable coldness. A moment later, Zi Min walked out of the room.
"Please come in …" Zi Min turned around and stood to the side. Her expression was still respectful as before. Just as Xiao Yuxuan was about to enter, Duan Zitong took a step forward as well. Xiao Yuxuan felt the aura behind her abruptly stop.
"Seventh Princess, please wait here for this humble subject for a moment, is that alright?" Even though it was a request, it carried a chill that made it impossible to refuse. Xiao Yuxuan's gaze was ice-cold as he quietly waited for Duan Zitong's reply.
At this moment, even though Duan Zitong was unwilling, she still nodded her head. He knew that if she refused now, then all her generosity would have been in vain.
"I can wait, but you better remember what you promised me, Yuxuan. I'm not afraid of you sneaking away. There's still the Xiao manor left …" However, she had no intention of leaving. She could compromise, but that was all he could do.
After Xiao Yuxuan stepped into the room, Zi Min slowly closed the door and stood at the doorway, looking straight at Duan Ziteng.
Inside the room, a candle flame flickered and a fragrant aroma wafted in the air. That elegant yet familiar figure had her back to Xiao Yuxuan, and a crescent white robe silently draped over her shoulders. At this moment, Duan Muyan was so quiet, so quiet that it would cause one's heart to palpitate, as if she was a beautiful picture.
"Mu Yan …" He didn't know when, but Xiao Yuxuan's voice had become choked with sobs. It was just that his back caused him to feel a heart-piercing pain. He suddenly hated himself for letting things go to such an irrevocable extent.
"Mu Yan congratulates the Ping Wang on his impending wedding …" If Xiao Yuxuan could see Duan Mu Yan's expression, her heart would definitely ache for her to the extreme. Her originally clear eyes, at this moment, were only left with a deathly stillness, a lifeless emptiness. Although she was looking forward, it seemed as though she was penetrating through everything and was looking towards the void.
"Sorry …" Mu Yan, in the end, I will still let you down … "Sorry …" Xiao Yuxuan also approached the goddess in his heart. His trembling body staggered as he stood ten meters away from Duan Mu Yan, sincerely admitting his mistake.
"Isn't Mu Yan destined to marry to the Qi King as well? No one in this world would ever take responsibility for anyone in their life. Perhaps this is fate, Mu Yan's life is destined to be a life without anyone to rely on …" Tears fell without warning, and Duan Mu Yan's heart felt as though it was being tightly squeezed. She really wanted to turn around and throw herself at Xiao Yuxuan, cry unrestrainedly and travel with him across the world. This was her last hope, and perhaps, as long as Xiao Yuxuan asked for it, she would not care about anything else and would definitely leave with him. So everything was real. He was the one who agreed to marry Duan Zitong, and he was the one who was willing to do so. Her heart, what kind of pain was that? Duan Muyan stared at the emptiness before her, she was finally completely lonely, she was completely in despair, her life was about to end, she would no longer be tied down, she would no longer have any worries.
"Why? Why have we come to this? Why... Mu Yan … I love you so much... The result is never what I expected. I really don't know what to do. Can you forgive me? " Xiao Yuxuan painfully squatted down. That incomparably handsome, peerlessly beautiful man was already as decadent as an old man in his teens. Duan Mu Yan was the only one who could forgive him for the night he and Duan Zitong shouldn't have happened.
"Now that things have come to this, do you still care about who forgives who?" With a plop, her tears fell onto the table, shattering into countless crystals. Duan Muyan did her best to make her voice sound so calm and unperturbed, but by now, her face was covered in tears.
In reality, Duan Zitong had never told her about what had happened that night. If she could look back at Xiao Yuxuan and let him feel her desire at this moment, if Xiao Yuxuan could charge forward and hold Duan Mu Yan tightly in her arms, then everything would be different. However, because of an illusory misunderstanding, they had missed out on the only happiness of their lives.
"Mu Yan... "Regardless of whether you believe it or not, I, Xiao Yuxuan, will only love you in this lifetime …" Xiao Yuxuan slowly stood up, his empty eyes full of tears. The despair in his eyes showed that he was extremely heartbroken.
Speechless, the entire room was abnormally quiet. Duan Moyan bit her lips tightly, blood seeping from her lips. She did her best to suppress herself, not allowing herself to make a single sound. In her entire life, she had loved only one person. However, the word 'love' was simply too expensive. So expensive that even if she were to spend everything she had, she would still not be able to buy it.
Urgently knocking on the door interrupted the tranquility. Even though Zi Min stopped him, Duan Zitong still insisted on knocking on Duan Mu Yan's door.
"Yuxuan, it's getting late. Tell the third emperor's sister to rest early too. See you tomorrow!" The gentle voice exuded an unconcealable jealousy and dissatisfaction. At the side, Zi Min looked at Seventh Princess with hatred. Her cunning look really made her want to puke.
Inside the room, Xiao Yuxuan stood there quietly, as if he was waiting for the final opportunity. However, when Duan Zitong said she was going to barge in, Xiao Yuxuan turned around and left. As he heard Xiao Yuxuan's footsteps gradually grow further away, Duan Moyan finally couldn't hold back her tears anymore. She cried until her tears fell like rain, and when Zi Min entered the room, Duan Moyan leaned against the table. Her tears rolled down her face like beads with their strings cut.
"Princess, please don't …" I beg you, no matter how much you cry, you still can't change everything. Since Ping Wang doesn't know how to cherish things, why must you use his fault to punish yourself? Master, you must pull yourself together, and without Ping Wang, you, Yao'er and the entire Pear Blossom Pavilion will protect you from harm! " Zi Min tightly embraced Duan Mu Yan in her embrace, as tears flowed down her cheeks.
After an unknown period of time passed, Duan Moyan slowly slipped out of Zi Min's embrace and fell asleep. However, the tears in the corners of her eyes were still moist.
On the rooftop opposite of the Xiao family, a person stood astonishingly. The purple colored clothes fluttered in the wind, his long hair was like ink as it fluttered in the night sky, his eyes, which were as black as midnight, radiated a mysterious and gloomy light. After a long time, that person suddenly flashed past and headed straight to the Spring Festival.
"Your subordinate greets Master …" Every time she saw Duan Xingyi, an indescribable feeling would surge up from the bottom of her heart. Because of her previous confession, she was already doing her best to restrain her emotions, but these feelings were deeply rooted in her heart and she was afraid that she would never be able to extricate herself again.
"Get up. Is there something important?" The current him was different from the past. Right now, the Imperial City already had Shen Hanxin's subordinates. If they were to notice him, the consequences would be unthinkable.
"Master, Bing'er has made a major discovery. She has reason to believe that the Rainbow Dress, which was listed in the Yichun Courtyard, was from third prince, and that he was a very unscrupulous person, as if both men and women had the ability to eat each other. According to Bing'er's guess, the only one who had this kind of hobby in third prince was Gui Luosha, because Bing'er had heard that Gui Luosha practiced dual cultivation, which was why this phenomenon happened." Leng Bingxin spoke truthfully.
"Gui Luosha? "As far as I know, Gui Luosha is not Shen Hanxin's subordinate, but they have a sort of contract in their hands. Let's not talk about it, since Gui Luosha is after us, we should naturally strike first to gain the upper hand. Bing'er, according to your understanding, what do you think about Gui Luosha's martial arts?" Duan Xingyi solemnly spoke, his sword-like eyebrows tightly knitted together.
"Master, even if Bing'er and Ye Li work together, they might not necessarily win." Leng Bingxin had only heard of Duo Cultivation, but she had never fought with a Duo Cultivation. Since Ni Chang was able to change freely in the Spring Festival, she must have reached the level of perfection. Naturally, her skill must not be underestimated.
If that's the case, all of you must not alert the enemy, it is very obvious that he has not found out about your identity, and now that he has left the Yichun courtyard, it would only attract his attention. For the time being, don't provoke him, wait for me to find a better method, and then we can move again, during this period of time, you must be careful, if you are careless and are discovered by him, then immediately leave with Ye Li. Duan Xingyi spoke in a solemn voice, his eyes turning even darker. He didn't expect that in order to put him to death, Shen Hanxin would actually invite even Gui Luosha.
