Chapter 251 True Love is Selfish

In the end, Allen was taken away.

But Rongzhen did not stop him.

From the moment she confirmed Alan's elf identity, she knew there was no chance for them.

Whether it is because there is reproductive isolation between elves and humans, or because elves will die of heartbreak if they lose their loved ones, Rongzhen and Alan are not suitable to be together.

Just like Abel said, there will be no good result if they are together. Rather than letting it reach an irreversible point in the future, it is better to nip the seeds of relationship in the bud from the beginning.

If you don't make a decision when you should, you will suffer the consequences.

Rongzhen made a quick decision and watched Alan being taken away by Archer. She watched him lying on the back of the moose and reaching out to her with tears in his eyes, but she remained indifferent.

When the noise died down, Mary and Daisy carefully comforted her, "Miss Jenny, don't be sad. No one would have thought that Alan was such a fairy liar."

Instead of being a good elf, she pretends to be a human being and deceives Miss Jenny's feelings. She is so mean.

"I'm not sad." Rong Zhen forced a smile, but drops of water fell down.

Is it raining? She looked up at the sky.

The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, there were no clouds and no rain. It turned out that they were tears on her face.

It's just a love affair that ended halfway, there's nothing to be sad about.

Rongzhen comforted herself in this way, wiped away her tears, went back and slept for a long time. After waking up, she was still the calm and wise Miss Jenny, but she no longer mentioned someone in the past.

If she didn't mention it, other people who knew about it would naturally not be so tactless as to mention it, and those who didn't know would just think that Alan was doing a short-term job and left after making some money.

So within a few days, there was no trace of Alan on the farm, as if he had never appeared there.

During the first two days, Rongzhen would stare at the windowsill from time to time, thinking of the man singing love songs to her under the window and climbing through the window to please her.

Then the summer harvest came and she became so busy that she had no time to spare, and gradually she buried that beautiful memory deep in her heart.

The moon waxes and wanes, and people have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions. No matter what happens, life must go on.

When the busy summer harvest was over and Rongzhen felt that she was about to get over that relationship, Abel came back with Alia, passed by the lakeside town, and deliberately came to her farm.

Alia was not much different from before she left, except that there was a hint of sadness between her eyebrows.

Abel seemed much quieter and privately asked Rongzhen to help persuade Arya, because she was very likely to have fallen in love with the dwarf named Bruel.

Although she did not refuse when he came to take her back, he could not hide her true feelings from his eyes.

So that night, Rongzhen invited Alia to take a walk together under the moon, smelling the fragrance of rye straw after the summer harvest, and telling each other the secrets in their hearts.

Even though Arya had gone out for a trip, her experience in worldly affairs was no match for Rong Zhen, a veteran who had been around for several lifetimes, and she was easily tricked into finding out about the dwarf Bruel.

"He is very persistent and sincere to me. He is a very good and loyal person."

This is Alia's evaluation of Bruer, and she obviously has a very good impression of him.

But when she was pursued by the other party at first, Alia actually refused, and because of the misunderstanding when they first met, she did not have a good impression of Bruel.

Who can blame Bruer for being so persistent and unremitting? He has been showing his kindness to her and trying his best to display his own strengths and charm, which gradually made Alia let down her guard and changed her impression and attitude towards him.

Then Bruel continued his efforts, and when he and Alia were getting along well and were about to break the window paper, Abel arrived in time and took Alia away.

After Rongzhen listened to Alia's story, an idea flashed through his mind.

The old saying that a virtuous woman is afraid of a clingy man is not without reason.

It’s just that as for the clingy man that Alia met, Shu Rongzhen finds it hard to agree with what Alia said about how good the other person is.

If it was really that good, would he pursue an elf as a dwarf?

You have to know that this world does not encourage interracial love. The ending of any interracial relationship is not very good.

Didn't Bruer know about this before he started pursuing Arya? Even if he didn't know, wouldn't someone else or his own kind have told him after he started pursuing her?

So what did he do? He kept pursuing it.

Also, "Does he know that elves will die of heartbreak when they lose their loved ones?" Rongzhen asked Alia.

The smile on Alia's face as she recalled Bruer faltered, and she shook her head and said, "I told him that when I first rejected him."

So what was Bruer's reaction? Rongzhen continued to ask.

Alia recalled the scene of that day. After learning about it, Bruer still stubbornly and fearlessly stopped in front of her and said that he didn't care about short-lived species or immortal species, nor did he care about any other issues. He only knew that he was about to be overwhelmed by his longing and love for her, and if he couldn't win her favor, he would die now.

Rong Zhen's eyebrows jumped when he heard this. Isn't this just avoiding the question of Gu Zuoyan?

Arya talked about the harm she would suffer if she accepted him, while Bruel only talked about what would happen to him if Arya didn't accept him.

In other words, he actually only cares about his own feelings and doesn't care at all whether Arya really wants to be with him. When he dies one day, what will happen to Arya who has lost her lover? Maybe she will even be happy to take Arya with him.

But don’t you think about how long he lives and how long Alia lives. If he really loves her, would he have the heart to let her lose her life at such a young age?

To put it bluntly, people like Bruel are selfish. He doesn't care about Alia as much as Abel does, but he is better at dealing with things and expressing himself than Abel.

But if Rongzhen wanted to persuade Alia, she certainly couldn't say it so directly.

Because it might backfire and trigger Alia's rebellious psychology.

So after Alia finished speaking, Rongzhen immediately started talking about her secret love affair with Allen that ended halfway.

Alia's mouth opened in surprise. "Alan? That underdeveloped newborn elf Alan? Jenny, you, you are in love with him?!"

This incident really shocked her so much that she didn't have the time to worry about her own little emotions. All her attention was diverted in an instant.

Rongzhen nodded. "Yes, he somehow sneaked out of the forest and came to my farm. He disguised himself as a disabled person and sneaked into the farm to get close to me and please me. Then he secretly fell in love with me."

Ailia looked dreamy as she listened, and when she saw her stop talking, she quickly asked what happened next.

Afterwards, Alan's identity was exposed and he was captured by the Elf Guard.

Aaliyah was stunned, surprised but not too surprised.

But seeing Rong Zhen's calm acceptance, she asked in confusion, "You just let him be captured? You didn't go to rescue him? You two have become lovers, are you forced to separate like this?"

Rong Zhen sighed, "The forest is his home, not a dangerous place. He's going home. Even though we were lovers, our relationship ended automatically after his identity was exposed. He's an elf, and I'm human. Since we're destined to have no future together, it's better to separate now and live happily ever after."

It would be beneficial for both of you to separate while the feelings are still young and he won't be heartbroken by a breakup.

Alia looked dazed after hearing this. "Don't you love him?"

"Love, because I love him, I can't bear to hurt him. I know that continuing to love each other will cause him heartbreak one day in the future, so I would rather never start and end this relationship in time so that he can have a better life." This is Rong Zhen's sincere thought, and it is also a criticism of a certain dwarf.

Alia, look, this is love, don't be fooled by those selfish people out there.

Alia was not a fool. She understood what she meant after thinking about the whole thing.

But understanding does not mean acceptance. She needs to digest it herself. After all, emotional matters are sometimes really difficult to make decisions.

After Rong Zhen asked Daisy to take Alia to rest, she looked into the darkness behind her and said, "Okay, everyone's gone. Come out."

Abel, who had been following the two quietly not far away, appeared upon hearing this and stepped forward to express his gratitude. "Excuse me, Miss Jenny. I'm sorry. I heard what you and Alia just said. You and Allen..."

Although he had guessed it long ago, when Abel heard that Alan and her were separated, he still felt it was unreal, as if he had heard a fairy tale.

How could it be possible? Allen had just been a freshman, and Miss Jenny had only been to the Elf Palace once, so how could the two of them get together?

This is even stranger than Arya falling in love with a dwarf.

Abel didn't know what to say.

Rongzhen thought he was making a fuss. If elves could be attracted and moved by dwarves, why couldn't humans develop feelings for elves?

Besides, Allen, that guy with congenital disabilities, looks almost like a human and has a beautiful face. Wouldn't it be easy for him to deceive her feelings?

Abel: ...Well, he's just surprised by what he's seen.

"It's too late. If there's nothing else, I'll go back and rest." Rongzhen yawned, turned around and prepared to go back to the building, but was stopped by Abel again.

Abel hesitated and said, "Ms. Jenny, as a thank you for helping Alia, there is something I want to let you know. It's related to Alan."

Rong Zhen paused in her steps and stood there without looking back. "What's going on?"

Abel pondered, "You should have been there on Allen's new birth day. I'm sure you heard about his developmental impairment."

Rong Zhen nodded. She had indeed heard that a new, underdeveloped elf had been born, but out of politeness and taboo, she did not ask any further questions and left quickly.

If she had known that the elf was Alan, she should have asked about it at that time, otherwise he would not have come to her house and deceived her feelings.

Abel continued, "Then you must not know that besides not having elf ears and not being very tall, Allen can only live for a hundred years, which is almost the same as your human lifespan."

Rong Zhen turned around abruptly, "So if Allen is with me, there won't be any mismatch in lifespans between the immortal and short-lived species?"

Abel nodded in confirmation. He shouldn't have said it, but Miss Jenny helped him readily and even exposed her own shortcomings to enlighten Alia. He couldn't just watch Miss Jenny lose her lover and do nothing.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, a disabled elf like Allen will never be able to find a partner of the same race in his life. If he does, he will only harm his other half.

It would be better to let him and Miss Jenny be together. At least they truly love each other and their lifespans are the same.

He had misjudged it before, and now is the perfect time to make up for it.
