"I once truly loved you." Nan Xun looked at Xue Li'er and said, "If this love continues, I will accept you no matter what you become when you come back."
"But everything has changed." Nan Xun paused and said, "When you chose to hide it from me, our relationship was over."
"No!" Xue Li'er could no longer control her emotions and broke down in tears. "I won't accept this! I won't accept this! I didn't tell you back then because I was afraid you would look down on our family, a wealthy and declining family. You're so outstanding and proud, how could you possibly accept someone like me with that kind of family background!"
"Compared to you, Zhu Zhu is just the daughter of an ordinary family," Nan Xun said calmly, "but she never felt inferior because of these things. She never thought of changing her fate by clinging to the upper class."
"Does she need more?!" Xue Li'er said hysterically, "With you, she already has everything! What else is there to be dissatisfied with?"
"Is it the me now that makes you feel like you have everything, or the me before?" Nan Xun looked at Xue Li'er coldly. "If you had heard about Nan Yu's decline during these years of exile abroad, would you still be so determined to come back to me?"
Nan Xun's words were like a needle that pierced Xue Li'er's vital point.
Indeed, she escaped from Rashid because she was unwilling to marry such an old man as a concubine.
After escaping, she felt a little regretful.
At Rashid's place, apart from serving the old man, she had everything she needed. Without having to please anyone, she was already the most respected woman there.
But after escaping, she lived a precarious life, sometimes even needing An Jinli's help to survive.
If it weren't for the fact that she always saw news about Nan Xun's thriving career through foreign media, Xue Li'er was really afraid that one day she would return to Rashid because she couldn't stand the hardship.
It was Nanxun's success that gave Xue Lier confidence. She believed that as long as she returned to Nanxun, she would become the most noble and happiest woman in the world.
Even I myself haven't figured out what I'm thinking, but Nanxun has already understood it.
So when she came back, she could no longer see the affection in Nanxun's eyes. Nanxun knew exactly what kind of person she was.
It's just that he loved her before, so he could tolerate her shortcomings. When there is no more love between them, Nanxun's rationality will return to him.
Xue Li'er has been trying to convince herself for many days and nights.
He said that everything he did was for Nanxun.
Because she loves him, she is forced to go on a blind date to steal Nan Yu's secrets.
Because she loved him, she had no choice but to please the old man Rashid and give birth to his children.
In fact, Xue Li'er has been avoiding her own heart. She has always refused to admit that all her choices and actions are for herself.
In order to become the woman that everyone in the capital envied, even though she was with Nan Xun, she wanted to try dating a man with a better family background.
In order to call the shots in Amman, or even return to the imperial capital, she chose to serve the old man Rashid.
In order to be able to return to Nan Xun's side, she ignored Nan Xun's feelings and wanted to get rid of the person Nan Xun loved.
In Xue Lier's heart, as long as she can be with Nan Xun, no one else matters.
