Chapter 261 I am sick, crazy!
My younger sister is just hesitant. If she sees her resisting fiercely, she might really beat the emperor up.
That’s the emperor.
This is no joke.
There was only her and him in the room. If he was beaten for no reason, he would definitely be held accountable afterwards. How would she explain it?
[Hey, my sister isn't struggling, so I'd better not meddle in other people's business. It's easy to get annoying.]
[Well, let’s just wait and see…]
The plan succeeded, and Shen Qingyi breathed a sigh of relief. Then, she heard the man's low, hoarse, and guilt-filled voice.
"This is my fault. What do you want me to do to forgive you? Tell me what you want. As long as it doesn't get rid of me and doesn't endanger the country and the people, I will agree to anything you ask."
Hearing this, Shen Qingyi's eyes lit up instantly.
"Really? As long as it's not the two points the Emperor mentioned, can you really agree to anything?"
"Yeah, really."
Very good! ! !
Shen Qingyi was so happy that her heart was about to burst with joy. Even though she tried hard to hold it back, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.
"Alright, we'll discuss this later. Your Majesty hasn't told me why you wanted to kill me back then."
Although she had heard Xiao Wan'er's previous thoughts and vaguely understood something, she still could not completely resolve the doubts in her heart.
Now that I've spoken, I have to make it clear today no matter what.
As for his promise, it was a complete surprise.
Xiao Jue frowned, not willing to face this matter. Every time he thought about it, he would be overwhelmed by deep guilt, self-blame and regret.
But obviously, there are some things that he cannot ignore deliberately and pretend that nothing happened.
He really did owe her an explanation.
"Why? Because I'm sick, crazy!"
Shen Qingyi: "..."
"Oh, Qingyi, you don't believe it, right? But this is true. I am indeed insane. So, when I felt I was about to die, I had a crazy idea, which was to take Qingyi with me to die..."
"I am still so young, how can I die alone?"
"Qingyi must stay with me. That way, even if I die, I won't feel lonely."
"I like Qingyi so much, how can I leave her alone and let her become someone else's wife in the future? Father originally intended to marry you to me, but it's all Xiao Yelin's fault for forcing his hand in the marriage..."
He originally planned to kill her and then kill Xiao Yelin, but when he saw her painful appearance, he softened his heart.
Of course, there was no need to tell her this.
After hearing this, Shen Qingyi felt mixed emotions. She never expected that this was the reason why the emperor wanted to kill her.
She wondered why.
If you love her, you'll want to die with her. Well, that's pretty crazy. [I have to say, these yandere and crazy settings in the novel are not to my taste. I really can't appreciate them.]
[However, the Emperor now seems to be in a much more normal mental state, and those dark attributes are no longer visible. I wonder if this has a lot to do with his mature mentality.]
[Sister, think about it yourself. Is this person really worth keeping?]
"No, no, you've both said so much. I have no chance to back down. I must have it, whether I can or not."
[Even if my sister doesn't want to accept it, she has to accept it.]
[Oh, the Emperor won't force anything on me. If I continue watching, I'll be invading my sister's privacy, which would be really rude.]
"Sister, I'm leaving now. Please have a good chat with the Emperor."
[The Emperor is sincere to you, much better than that scumbag male protagonist, except that he is a little crazy.]
【……】
The voice in my ears became farther and farther away, and soon disappeared completely.
Shen Qingyi concentrated and listened carefully for a moment. Apart from her and his breathing, there was no other sound. Her younger sister's mental power had really left.
She breathed a sigh of relief, her tense nerves relaxed, and she reached out to push the man in front of her, but his hands were grabbed forcefully.
"Your Majesty, please let me go."
"No, I've answered everything you want to know. Why don't you speak?"
Instead of letting go, he hugged her even tighter, as if he wanted to embed his hold on her into her bones and blood, making it hard for her to breathe.
Shen Qingyi couldn't break free, so she gave up struggling, panting.
"What? Why does the Emperor want to take you with him to die? But I probably have the answer to this question. The Emperor likes you, right?"
When she heard that the emperor liked her, she didn't believe it.
When she was a child, she liked to stick to him very much, always calling him Brother Crown Prince, and refused to leave the East Palace. However, he was always lukewarm and ignored her, and never had a good face.
She was not discouraged, and continued to happily go to him every day to show her affection.
It was not until that night that she was frightened and vaguely realized that he hated her so much that he wanted to kill her.
She didn't know why, but she began to consciously avoid him and never appeared in front of him again.
But now, the fact that he came to her in the middle of the night and his little sister's inner voice made her believe that he might really like her a little.
As for how much this 'somewhat' was, she had no idea.
Xiao Jue raised his eyebrows slightly and admitted it generously.
"Yes, I like it very much. So, when will Qingyi agree to enter the palace?"
"State affairs are very busy, and the distance between the palace and the Shen family is not very close. If I keep running back and forth between the two places, not only will I be exhausted, but it will also delay state affairs. Qingyi, can you please feel sorry for me for the sake of the country and the people?"
Shen Qingyi: "..."
She felt a little shy when she heard him admit that he liked her, but when she heard the following words, that shyness disappeared instantly, and she was left speechless.
"Your Majesty doesn't have to run around so much."
Enter the palace???
Oh, even if she decided to be with him, she had no plans to enter the palace for the time being.
First of all, her engagement had just been broken off.
Secondly, she couldn't bear to leave her parents, her younger sister, and everyone in the Shen family.
Finally, it was too pitiful that she was trapped in the palace at such a young age.
"Do you think I want to? But if you don't come to the palace, how can I see you if I don't do this?"
"I'm not like you, a heartless little fellow. I wouldn't miss you even if we never see each other. But for Qingyi, I miss her like crazy every day I don't see her..."
He lowered his head, gently pinched her face, and sighed helplessly.
One day without seeing you, I miss you like crazy...
Shen Qingyi was a little confused. She reached out and touched the place where he had pinched her. These words of love kept floating in her mind. It was like a dream, extremely unreal.
How come he is now completely different from the Crown Prince in my memory?
In my memory, he was aloof, gloomy, cold and arrogant, and kept people at a distance.
He simply doesn't bother to say a few more words to others.
