Chapter 225 How to Match You
Rong Qing's eyes were filled with tears, and her eyes were fixed on his figure. "Why haven't you wanted to see me these days?"
Bai Moyan raised his eyes to look at her, their eyes met, his heart struggling on the edge of love and pain.
"Why don't you want to talk to me?" Rong Qing stared at him, afraid that he would disappear from his sight again in the next moment. "Why don't you tell me that you are still alive? Why do you want me to bear all this alone? Why—"
Rong Qing's voice stopped abruptly, and the black scarf covering his face fell to the ground in the wind. The setting sun had not yet faded, enough for her to see the person in front of her clearly.
"Do you still like me like this?"
Bai Moyan lowered his eyes, as if afraid of seeing the disgust in her eyes, and forced himself to look up so that Rong Qing could see his true appearance.
Rong Qing froze in place, his soul seemed to have been taken away from him. He stared at him blankly, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
"Princess, you are a daughter of heaven, born into a golden family. Even if you have had setbacks, the royal family will not treat you harshly when you return to your homeland." Bai Moyan suppressed the bitterness in his heart, not wanting her to hear the choking in his voice. "You deserve a brighter and more glorious life."
"Forget me."
As soon as he finished speaking, the yard was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Bai Moyan didn't dare to meet her gaze, his heart ached badly.
He had long noticed Rong Qing's weight loss and the patches on her clothes. A voice in his head kept urging him to hug her.
Bai Moyan couldn't control the inferiority in his heart. He slowly lowered his head, even bending his back a little, "Princess, take care."
After saying that, he turned around, and just as his fingertips touched the courtyard door, a pair of small hands came out from behind and hugged his waist tightly.
Bai Moyan's body froze for a moment, and he subconsciously called out, "Princess..."
"You haven't called me that since you achieved your first military achievement." Rong Qing buried her face in his back, her body trembling constantly. She tightened her arms again and again, afraid that he would disappear with the sunset. Her waist and abdomen pressed against each other, and her heart ached. "Bai Moyan, you're going to leave me again. You clearly said you would marry me."
Bai Moyan stood there in a daze, his brain dull for a moment.
"fraud."
The person behind him was crying silently, and Bai Moyan could clearly feel a small wet spot on his clothes on his back.
"Since you don't have me in your heart, why did you rescue me from the northwest? You might as well let me die in a foreign land, in the hands of those beasts!" Rong Qing's shoulders shook, but the strength she held on the man did not loosen at all. He had lost a lot of weight, and the pain from his spine made her chest numb.
"Who said I don't have you in my heart?" Bai Moyan broke free from her arms and looked back at her. His scarlet eyes expressed his unwillingness and helplessness. "But how can I be worthy of you with my appearance?"
Yan Chun was the throbbing heart of his entire youth, and was more important than his own life.
If his appearance was intact, why would he be so timid and afraid to show up...
"If it weren't for you, I would have been nothing but bones." Rong Qing looked up. The terrifying monster before him overlapped with the high-spirited appearance of the Marquis of Wuping. Tears fell uncontrollably from his eyes. "I remember you at your most handsome, and that's enough."
"For eight years, I've been married to you and suffered humiliation. You've seen me suffer so much, yet you've never once shown any disdain for me. How could I turn my back on you just because of my looks?" Rong Qing's eyes welled up with tears, and she looked at him with disappointment. "Bai Moyan, you underestimated my feelings for you."
Bai Moyan opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. He suddenly became mute, and his emotions overflowed from his eyes.
Rong Qing's eyes were red, tears blurring her vision. "My military achievements didn't keep me here, so you offered your life to bring me home. But the capital has long lost its place for me. Without you, Daqi is no longer my home."
"You liar, why didn't you marry me when you came back alive!"
"I thought you were dead. Do you know that I almost died with you?"
"Bai Moyan, you have no heart at all!"
A tear fell from his chin, Rong Qing threw himself into his arms, and his sobs turned into a sharp blade, piercing Bai Moyan's heart.
"Chun'er, I..." Bai Moyan seemed to have been hit by a needle, and he stood still. Even his voice became much weaker. "I didn't... I didn't lie to you..."
I dream of marrying her.
Rong Qing raised his head, met his heart-wrenching gaze, stood on tiptoe, and blocked his dumb mouth that couldn't speak.
Bai Moyan was stunned, his mind was in a mess, but his body was very honest. His big hand passed around her side, and his heartbeat was deafening.
They have waited too long for today's scene.
It was not until it was completely dark that the gate reopened and the two walked out side by side.
Hearing the noise, Su Cheng slowly turned around and saw that Bai Moyan's face was not covered by a black scarf. She understood, "Have the princess and the prince cleared up the misunderstanding?"
Rong Qing felt a little embarrassed and nodded gently, looking at Su Cheng with eyes full of gratitude, "Ah Cheng... thank you so much, you are the best girl I have ever met. Without you, the rest of my life and Mo Yan's life would be ruined."
Su Cheng's lips curled up into a helpless smile, and he shook his head gently at her, "Princess, you flatter me."
Bai Moyan frowned, clasped his fists solemnly towards Su Cheng, and saluted, "Miss Zhao, I will never forget your kindness."
Su Cheng glanced at him, and suddenly smiled with her eyes curved. "The princess is deeply in love. I hope you won't let her down. Although her appearance has been ruined, there is a solution."
"What..." Rong Qing's eyes lit up and he asked hurriedly, "Ah Cheng, are you saying... Mo Yan's face might still recover?"
Bai Moyan also shifted his gaze and looked at her quietly, his eyes flashing with emotions that Su Cheng could not understand.
Seeing Rong Qing's agitated expression, Su Cheng nodded slowly, speaking sincerely, "I once knew an old man with exceptional medical skills. Although the scars on the prince's face are old, they won't be difficult to heal. I had thought that if he was stubborn and refused to look back at the princess, I would let him suffer from his appearance for the rest of his life, so that the princess could vent her anger."
After saying that, Su Cheng smiled and joked, "Who would have thought that the princess is so soft-hearted, and her heart is all on the prince. Since you have forgiven him, why should I be angry?"
"You girl! You're being clever. It's obvious that you expected that we would reconcile, so you deliberately teased me!" Rong Qing was so angry that he reached out to hit her, but she dodged it with a smile.
After a while of fooling around, Su Cheng finally straightened his expression, took out the key from his sleeve, and handed it to Bai Moyan, "This is the key to the courtyard, please accept it, my lord."
"This..." Bai Moyan was puzzled and asked in a low voice, "What does Miss Zhao mean?"
Su Cheng frowned slightly, his expression heavy. "The court is in turmoil right now. Even if the prince recovers, it's not appropriate for him to return to the mansion. It's better for him to stay here for the time being and wait for the right opportunity. Although the courtyard is not large, it is secluded and suitable for the prince and the princess to recuperate."
Bai Moyan looked at the key in his palm, then raised his eyes to look at the girl in front of him, and suddenly smiled, "I finally understand why Chun'er likes Miss Zhao."
The wheels turned slowly, leaving Tinggu Lane and heading towards the Zhao family mansion.
The sound of horse hooves was heard outside the car, and the breeze blew up the curtain of the small window. Su Cheng happened to look up and met the eyes of the man on horseback.
In just a moment, Su Cheng only had time to see clearly the pair of narrow and strange eyes.
