Yu Jingchen didn't know, or perhaps he didn't want to know... because he always felt that he couldn't possibly care about those ethereal things.
"Nan Zhiyun, I can allow you to be a little willful. You can have your own emotions in front of me, but you can't be like you were just now, okay?" Yu Jingchen calmed himself down.
However, Nan Zhiyun remained silent as if she hadn't heard Yu Jingchen's words.
"I won't be leaving He'an Palace for the next few days, so even if you don't want to, you'll have to bear with it." Seeing Nan Zhiyun's attitude, Yu Jingchen did not compromise.
"What does Your Majesty wish to do?" Nan Zhiyun asked at this moment.
"Why is Your Majesty staying here? I thought Your Majesty didn't want to see me." Nan Zhiyun's tone was off.
"Nan Zhiyun, I told you, don't talk to me like that, I don't like it." Yu Jingchen didn't want to see Nan Zhiyun's expression.
"How does Your Majesty intend to punish me this time? The Empress Dowager has just left, and Your Majesty is already looking for another reason to punish me? Is my body so worthless and lowly in Your Majesty's eyes, just a tool for Your Majesty to vent your dissatisfaction?" Nan Zhiyun didn't know what had gotten into her; how could she dare to speak to Yu Jingchen like this? Perhaps she had been pushed to the limit.
Yu Jingchen found Nan Zhiyun's words rather grating; they felt like needles piercing his heart.
I don't know if it's because of what Nan Zhiyun said about herself, or because of Nan Zhiyun's current attitude towards me.
"Don't say those things," Yu Jingchen said to Nan Zhiyun.
"Your Majesty, please spare me, okay? I finally managed to convince myself not to be the same as before. Your Majesty, could you please let me live a peaceful life in a secluded corner, asking for nothing but a quiet place..." Nan Zhiyun pleaded, clutching Yu Jingchen's hand.
She wanted to kneel down, but Yu Jingchen stopped her.
"Nan Zhiyun, I will not grant your request, because you made it too late," Yu Jingchen said to her. Now... he can't let go. If he could let go, he wouldn't have kept you when the Empress Dowager left... Of course, Yu Jingchen didn't say the second half of the sentence.
"Your Majesty..." Nan Zhiyun said in despair.
“You can have anything you want, but never anything related to this,” Yu Jingchen added.
"Why does Your Majesty only torment me? Is it really just because I was born into the Nan family? Your Majesty, I feel that I have always been very obedient, but why does Your Majesty always think that I deserve to die? I have been obedient, but Your Majesty has always only found me an eyesore."
"Your Majesty, is it because my surname is Nan that everything I do is wrong, that I deserve to die, or that my existence is only for Your Majesty to vent your dissatisfaction?" Nan Zhiyun's emotions collapsed, and all her patience had reached its limit.
"Your Majesty, I was truly wrong. I shouldn't have come to provoke you. I beg you, please forgive me this time."
"I'm afraid of pain, I'm afraid of hardship, I'm afraid of the dark, I'm afraid of disappointment, I'm afraid of waiting, I'm afraid of being alone, and I'm also afraid of Your Majesty... I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have begged to enter the palace, I shouldn't have appeared before Your Majesty. Your Majesty, please forgive me this time, okay? You've never forgiven me before, but I want to ask you one more time, just this once, okay?" Nan Zhiyun knelt down.
