Chu Junyao stood there in a daze, as if he was stupid, not knowing how to react.
The words "I love you" just kept playing in my mind.
His face flushed bright red, and his hand, held tightly by her, felt so hot that he couldn't speak clearly. "Xing, Xing'er, did I hear wrongly?"
Murong Xing stared at him straight with her sparkling almond-shaped eyes, her face flushed. "Of course I heard it right. Then let me ask you, do you... like me?"
After saying that, she looked at him nervously.
Chu Junyao's heart was beating like thunder. He nodded frantically, hugged her in his arms, and said ecstatically: "I like you, I like you!"
Hearing this, Murong Xing's ears turned red. She hugged him tightly, listening to each other's heartbeats, and breathing sweetly, "Brother Chu... these are the most beautiful words I have ever heard in this world."
She had always wanted to return to the modern era, but now she had ties to someone. Her only relative, Yan Xi, was also here, so she seemed to have no reason to leave.
After a long period of affection, Chu Junyao told her about Yan Xi and King Jin.
After listening to this, Murong Xing frowned slightly, "Brother Chu, let's wait and see for now. In fact, I think if Prince Jin really likes Yan Xi, it's no big deal. There's nothing wrong with liking someone, because some people can't control whether the person they like is a man or a woman, and we should respect them."
Chu Junyao pursed his lips. "But you also know that if this kind of thing gets out, it will not be good for anyone. Besides, the person Yan Xi likes... is actually you. King Jin is a bit paranoid. He seems to be determined to pester Yan Xi and won't give up. I'm really a little worried that he will hurt Yan Xi."
Murong Xing was silent.
What he said makes sense. Although love knows no gender, if one party does not have that intention but the other party clings to it, it is easy for something to go wrong.
At this moment, someone suddenly ran over and reported to Chu Junyao that Xiao Jingwen broke into Yan Xi's house at night and heard Yan Xi's frightened voice.
Chu Junyao and Murong Xing felt their hearts tighten and they hurried over, but they didn't expect to see that dazzling scene.
The beast Prince Jin actually laid hands on his brother in the Shangshu Mansion in broad daylight!
Chu Junyao was almost irritated by anger. Without thinking, he swung his fist and started fighting with King Jin, and warned him fiercely.
Prince Jin left, but his brother was deeply shocked and heartbroken. He fell seriously ill and did not recover for a long time.
Chu Junyao really hated King Jin, but he couldn't do anything about him.
I thought the matter would soon be settled, but before long, someone spread the news about Yan Xi and Prince Jin, causing an uproar in the city, and many people were laughing at Yan Xi.
This matter could not be kept secret, and his father also found out and fainted from anger.
After waking up, he wanted to seek justice from His Majesty, but unexpectedly, urgent news came from the border that the Huns were invading. The King of Jin took the initiative to volunteer, hoping to atone for his sins and leave for the capital.
It was good that he left, as he had peace and quiet, but what about his brother? He was criticized every day, and every time he heard the words "Prince of Jin", the light in his eyes disappeared instantly, and he became a little silent.
Yan Xi used to love to laugh and eat, but during that period, she was tortured to the point that she lost her appetite, became dazed, and lost a lot of weight.
Whenever he thought of this, he got furious!
Fortunately, Xing'er would often come to accompany him, make him laugh, and make delicious food for him. Gradually, Yan Xi regained his usual smile, but Chu Junyao always felt that Yan Xi's eyes when looking at Xing'er were a little complicated, as if he was entangled, struggling, or sad and lonely.
Every time I asked him, he would just shake his head with a smile on his face: "Brother, I'm fine, don't worry about me, I'm just thinking about something, something I've always ignored. I think... maybe I've never liked Sister Xing'er, I just treat her as my sister."
Chu Junyao was stunned for a moment, but when he heard these words, he felt relieved.
Suddenly, Yan Xi asked out of the blue, "Brother, what does it feel like to like someone? What exactly does it mean to like someone?"
The boy's face was full of confusion and his eyes were so helpless. He looked at him, desperately wanting an answer.
Chu Junyao was slightly startled, and his mind flashed through every little detail of his time with Murong Xing. He curled his lips unconsciously and spoke softly, "When you like someone, you will feel happy and laugh unconsciously when you see her. If you can't see her, you will always miss her. You will think of her no matter what you do. When you see her hurt and sad, you will feel sadder than her. When you see her crying, you will feel distressed too." Then he began to comfort her helplessly.
You will also be reluctant to lose your temper with her. Even if you are usually petty and irritable, you will become tolerant and generous in front of her because you love her. So no matter what she does, in your heart, you think it is reasonable and reasonable. You think she is extremely lovely and no one can compare to her. Apart from her, you don’t want to spend the rest of your life with anyone else. This... maybe it’s like, or love.
The young man stared at him blankly, his thoughts drifting away as he murmured, "So this is what love is? So this is it..."
Chu Junyao was immersed in sweetness and didn't notice anything wrong with him.
Many, many years later, he hated himself immensely. Why didn't he discover it earlier? If he had discovered earlier that his brother also liked Prince Jin, he wouldn't have done those stupid things, which ended up hurting Yan Xi and Prince Jin.
Not long after, Yan Xi disappeared, chaos broke out in the capital, and the battle for the throne between the Fourth Prince and the King of Jin entered its peak moment.
On the day when Prince Jin led his troops, Chu Junyao found Yan Xi, who was hidden by Prince Jin in a villa outside the capital.
He rescued the people quietly, but found that his father was taken away by the Fourth Prince's men.
Chu Junyao suddenly felt something was wrong, so he knocked out Murong Xing, who insisted on sharing life and death with him, sent the two back, and went to save his father alone.
