Chapter 2017 [Shang Xie] The first time I saw you, I was very happy
It was as if she was only temporarily restrained, but she would have to leave sooner or later, just like it took her two months to come from Piaomiao Mountain to Shenjing, and all the hurried scenery she experienced along the way. This palace was just a temporary place for her to stay and live for a long time. She would have to leave sooner or later, so she did not have to abide by the rules of this palace.
The emperor had his eyelids drooped, the faint light in the sky and the fine rain blurred the outline of his profile, making him look soft and soothing. However, if you look closely at his fingers that were holding the teacup tightly, you can tell from the gradually protruding knuckles and the increasingly white fingertips that he was not calm at the moment, and his heart could even be said to be violent.
"Fu Yi,"
He whispered her name softly, very gently, but he did not look up to meet her eyes.
"Will you stay with me forever?"
Xia Fuyi was stunned for a moment.
She didn't seem to react to what the question was. When her brain finally absorbed the full content of the sentence, her face immediately flushed and she almost spilled the tea in her hand.
After finally putting the teacup away in a hurry, Xia Fuyi stammered,
"You, you, you...you mean..."
Chang Sun Chi chuckled softly, but did not give her a chance to continue stuttering. He looked up at Xia Fuyi and said calmly,
"Xia Fuyi, I am attracted to you, what about you?"
Xia Fuyi stopped stuttering.
She looked as if she had been struck by a thunderbolt, her whole body burnt on the outside and tender on the inside, and her eyes were glazed.
I don’t know how long it took.
This is a wait that is not sure whether it will be long or not.
Changsun Chi's eyes were calm, but he had already held his breath unconsciously. Then he heard his heartbeat, which he thought was calm, gradually speeding up.
Bang—bang—bang—bang—bang—
The heartbeat speed was so fast that he almost wondered if it was about to jump out of his throat, and then he quickly found the voice coming from the other side in this rhythm.
Bang—bang—bang—bang—bang—
The damp air seemed to be evaporated by some unspeakable atmosphere. They, the supreme emperor and the killer who would kill anyone who stood in their way, dared not move in such an atmosphere.
They looked straight at each other.
The warmth on Xia Fuyi's face had spread to behind her ears and neck, and Changsun Chi's hand had already squeezed the teacup to create a crack.
But they never looked away even for an inch, as if it were a subtle competition.
It was not until their eyes met and lightning was about to explode that Changsun Chi heard Xia Fuyi's slow voice without a trace of hesitation.
The girl looked at him, a hint of smile in her cold eyes that always showed no emotion, and a hint of subtle, awkward and unskilled shyness.
She looked at Chang Sun Chi and said slowly,
"When I first saw you, I felt very happy."
The heartbeat that was getting faster and faster was finally slammed back to its original place by a heavy hammer at this moment.
The sound was almost deafening, causing his ears to buzz slightly.
He subconsciously curled his lips, but his eyes were stiff as if he hadn't reacted yet, and the joy was hidden in his eyes, about to burst out, just like a young boy who had just promised to spend his life with his beloved and couldn't hide it.
This was probably the first time that Changsun Chi, who had experienced countless hardships and sword attacks and had become as stagnant as water, showed such an almost immature expression.

He looked at Xia Fuyi opposite him and opened his mouth to say something, but a gust of wind happened to blow by, rippling the tea in the cup. The words in his throat were blocked by the wind and replaced by a sudden cough.
