Finally, I spoke out what was hidden in my heart.

My mother is right. Some things in your heart must be said, otherwise you may miss them for the rest of your life.

Now that Qin Wan's attitude has changed so obviously and things have come to this point, if he still doesn't understand, who knows what will happen between them.

Qing Yue paused, she stood there, as if thinking of someone in the past, that person hugged her shoulders, his brows full of tenderness, and gently told her, "Yue'er, I love you."

But what happened next?

Later she was betrayed and put to death.

Qing Yue suddenly found it ridiculous.

She suddenly turned her head, her cold eyes tinged with hatred, "Your Highness is fond of me? What does he like about me? Is it me as a person, or my medical skills? How did Your Highness manage to be fond of so many people?"

These words were full of sarcasm and were very unpleasant to hear, and they pierced Feng Ling's ears deeply.

But Feng Ling was not a fool. He could see Qing Yue's anger and coldness. Facing her accusations, he could also hear that she had misunderstood him, misunderstanding that he liked many people at the same time.

"I don't have any. I only love you."

Feng Ling said.

After saying this, Qing Yuezhen chuckled softly, "Don't you think it's ridiculous for Your Highness to say this? How long have I known Your Highness? How could I possibly have feelings for her? In this capital of the Great Zhou, who doesn't know that Your Highness is deeply in love with the eldest daughter of the Qin family? Even Qin Wan was chosen because Your Highness listened to the eldest daughter's advice and arranged this marriage in her place?"

Your Highness, whether your feelings towards Miss Qin are based on love and hatred, or simply unrequited love, I do not wish to interfere with your relationship. I will treat your words today as a joke, and please do not mention it again in the future."

"Qin Wan!"

He cried out in surprise, as if he had not expected Qing Yue to say such cold and heartless words.

Seeing Qing Yue was about to leave, he hurriedly said, "I have explained to you that my relationship with Qin Ningyue is not what you think. My relationship with her is..."

"Isn't she already the prince's woman?"

Before Feng Ling could finish, Qing Yue interrupted her.

These words pierced Feng Ling's heart like a sharp knife, leaving him speechless.

"Do you mind this?"

He asked in a hoarse, deep voice.

Qing Yue's body froze, and she stood there feeling incredibly upset. How could she not mind? She had been betrayed by her childhood sweetheart, so deep down, feelings were the last thing she wanted to touch. It was Feng Ling's selfless help that gradually cracked open her shell, but only a little bit. And now she learned that he had actually been intimate with Qin Ningyue.

Just thinking about it made her feel uncomfortable and even disgusted.

So the heartbeat that had just risen in her heart was ruthlessly crushed into powder by her.

Qing Yue raised her head and looked at Feng Ling. The gentleness between her eyebrows turned into a coldness. She said, "Yes, I mind and I can't accept it. So, Your Highness, there is no possibility between us."

Such a heartless sentence cut off his heartbeat and made Feng Ling's feelings become extremely ridiculous.

She didn't expect that she would say such heartless words. She was whispering to her second brother the moment before, saying that she was moved, but the next moment she was psychologically broken by Qin Ningyue's words.

Yes, she couldn't accept that Qin Ningyue had had physical contact with him.

If they were not deeply in love, how could such an intimate thing happen?

She and Chu Yan met when they were young and fell in love before they reached the age of marriage. Over the years, the closest they had ever been was a kiss.

But Qin Ningyue and Feng Ling were already close to each other, so the relationship between them was destined to be complicated and inseparable, and she was unwilling to involve herself in this relationship.

Especially, she is now Qin Wan.

It's hard to say if Qin Wan's death had nothing to do with Feng Ling. Marrying into the palace and being treated so coldly was the final straw that broke the camel's back. And since she was occupying someone else's body, how could she have fallen in love with Feng Ling? And how could she have become entangled with Feng Ling and Qin Ningyue, the two murderers who murdered her?

never mind!

I just fell in love, there is still room for recovery.

She shouldn't, and can't.

A night in the cave was just a dream.

But in the end, she still felt wronged and sad. Why did she have to encounter these things?

If she was still Qing Yue, how could she have put herself in this situation?

…

Feng Ling felt as if a sharp dagger had been stabbed into her heart, and the wound that had just been treated with medicine seemed to be in severe pain again.

All the unspoken feelings were blocked by Qing Yue's decisive words.

He pursed his lips, his eyes filled with mist. After a long pause, he said in a hoarse voice, "Qin Wan, although Qin Ningyue and I have had physical contact, it's not what you think. Between us..."

"Phoenix Feather."

Before he could finish his words, Qing Yue interrupted him.

She knitted her brows lightly, a layer of alienated coldness covering her face. This look also made Feng Ling's explanation come to an abrupt halt. He raised his eyes and fell into her calm and rational eyes, only to hear her say, "Feng Ling, I don't want to know what happened between you. Whether it was a passionate love or a life-saving grace, the short answer is that you and Qin Ningyue are no longer innocent. Just because of this, there is no possibility between you and me..."

The man I will marry in the future may not be a prince or a general, or from a wealthy family, but I want him to be the only woman I can be. This is my bottom line."

Following Qing Yue's decisive words, Feng Ling felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. She didn't even give him a chance to quibble and directly sentenced him to death.

What else can he say?

He pursed his lips tightly and suppressed the pain in his eyes.

He wanted to say something, but when he opened his mouth he couldn't utter a word. Both his heart and head ached dully.

After Qing Yue finished speaking, she felt empty inside. It would be a lie to say she wasn't upset, but she would never give herself the chance to regret. She cut off all possibilities at once and continued, "Your Highness, there are only two days left of the ten-day deadline set by the Emperor. Now that you've been assassinated and injured, the Emperor must be furious. We have a common enemy and goal. Your Highness and I have a close working relationship. At this critical juncture, I don't want any division or conflict between us."

Feng Ling pursed her lips, and understood the hidden meaning of her words. When it came to feelings, she had already clearly rejected it, and when it came to revenge, she didn't want to change at this juncture.

"Won't."

Feng Ling spoke, her voice low and hoarse, as if she was suppressing something.

Qing Yue's eyelashes trembled slightly, forcing herself not to look into Feng Ling's eyes. She then spoke, "We're still one step away from the antidote for Huan Yan Dan. I'll go back to the pharmacy first. Your Highness, please rest early."

After he finished speaking, he walked out of the house.

Feng Ling sat in a wheelchair, completely silent. Suddenly, he coughed to suppress the fishy smell in his mouth.

He wanted to call her, but he had no excuse, and he leaned back in the wheelchair, exhausted.

"Qin Wan!"
