Chapter 2295 [Shangxie] You are also quite heartless

An extremely bitter taste filled the mouth.

Xia Fuyi even suspected that Zhan Luoying had deliberately added an extra ingredient, Coptis chinensis, to her medicine.

But the girl who was used to keeping everything in her heart could not show any dissatisfaction or doubt. She could only lean against the head of the bed silently, swallowing her saliva with a paralyzed face.

Zhan Luoying sat down at the table and poured herself a cup of tea.

The light green tea gurgled into the white jade cup, and was then held and played with by the slender and clean hands that were used to making poisons. Against the backdrop of the green mountains and misty rain outside the window, it was truly picturesque.

The room was quiet.

Zhan Luoying turned sideways to Xia Fuyi and didn't speak until she finished a cup of tea. She lowered her eyes and said lightly,

"Don't you have anything you want to ask me?"

Xia Fuyi was silent for a moment.

"What do you want to ask?"

Zhan Luoying didn't seem surprised by her question. She just smiled faintly while holding the teacup, but there was no smile in her lowered eyes.

"In fact, in a way, you are quite heartless."

He put down the teacup and turned his head to look at Xia Fuyi.

"You shouldn't be surprised. You've defected from Tianji Sect twice. The last time, you even teamed up with Xue Yanshu to burn down Linglong Pavilion, nearly causing the entire Jiange to burn down. With such a serious crime, anyone else, even me, would have been hunted down to death. The residence and belongings left in the mountains would have been burned to ashes long ago."

He raised his hand and pointed around casually.

"Look, has your Fuyi Pavilion changed at all?"

Xia Fuyi was slightly stunned, and her first look was at the worn sachet on the bed beam.

That was the first sachet Xia Fuyan made for her. It was a gift to celebrate her becoming the head of Jiange Pavilion and moving to Fuyi Pavilion. It wasn't very pretty, but she liked it very much. She had hung it since the first day she moved to Fuyi Pavilion. After all these years, it was still hanging there in good condition, except that the fabric was slightly yellowed, and it swayed in her sight when the wind blew.

Xia Fuyi stared at the sachet in a daze, and after a long while she asked in a hoarse voice,

"Why?"

She thought that after her last escape, Fuyi Pavilion should have become Xue Yanshu's territory.

Zhan Luoying stared at her and asked,

"You really don't know why?"

"Should I know?"

Her eyes were cold and serious, showing genuine doubt and confusion.

Zhan Luoying looked at it for a long while, then he lowered his eyelids and sighed deeply. Then he stood up and walked to the window, saying lightly,

"Who else in Tianji Sect would allow you to keep your Fuyi Pavilion? Who else would allow servants to come and clean your Fuyi Pavilion every day and keep all your things, not even a worn-out sachet that has been moved?"

Xia Fuyi lowered her eyes and thought for a moment. When she looked up, her brows slightly furrowed, and she repeated the three-word question.

"Why?"

Why did he do that?

Confusion was once again clearly written in her eyes.

Zhan Luoying turned around to look at her, and stared at her for a long time. Finally, he shook his head and smiled as if giving up.

"So I say, you are sometimes a heartless person."

"As long as they are not someone you care about, no matter what they do, you have no intention of exploring it, and you won't even take it seriously."

"Well, have a good rest. You will go down the mountain early tomorrow morning."

Zhan Luoying turned and walked towards the door. Xia Fuyi stood up and asked anxiously,

"Antidote!"

Zhan Luoying paused.

"I'll come and see you off the next morning, and I'll give you the antidote then."
