Chapter 2300 [Shangxie] It would be nice if you could just look at me again
Walking through the empty hall, light and shadows intertwined under her feet.
It was not until the figure lying quietly on the bed caught her eye that her steps paused slightly.
Her tightly clenched heart finally relaxed at this moment, and was then enveloped by another emotion, a sadness that was unfamiliar to her. It was different from the anger and heartache she felt when she learned he was poisoned, and it was also different from the anxiety and fear she felt as she rushed all the way fearing she would be too late. It was another kind of empty and suffocating feeling.
But such emotions were quickly ignored by her. Xia Fuyi continued to walk forward, her blood-stained clothes dragging across the ground and finally stopping beside the bed.
The man's pale and quiet face reflected in her eyes. The long period of sleep made him look thinner, and his jaw line was almost sharp and glaring, but it also made his facial features clearer, handsome and sharp.
Xia Fuyi slowly squatted down beside the bed, her dark eyes filled with unconscious fascination. She stared at him for a long time, and finally, she hesitated and slowly reached out her hand to touch those two rows of long eyelashes, her action almost reluctantly.
If only you could look at me again.
Xia Fuyi thought of the pair of eyes that were stunning at first glance under the vast autumn sky. They were more beautiful than the amber that she had collected and treasured for a long time. They were her favorite that she had always yearned for.
There are millions of pairs of eyes in the world, but this one pair alone, even if it's just an unintentional glance, makes her extremely happy and restless. She just wants to put all her treasures on it, but she is afraid that her recklessness and clumsiness will bring disturbance.
If only you could look at me again.
Xia Fuyi gently touched the row of eyelashes with her fingers, as if touching the wings of a sleeping butterfly, with extreme caution and restraint.
After a while, she retracted her pale fingers and slowly withdrew her hand.
If only you could look at me again.
After hesitating for a moment, Miss Xia lowered her head and slowly and gently kissed his pale lips.
"I love you."
Her voice was vaguely hidden between her lips and teeth, hoarse and clumsy, but full of sincerity, reluctance to leave, and unconscious sadness.
The bright light from the sky was filtered through the paper window, adding a layer of blurry texture. The scattered light and shadows shone on the woman who lowered her head in front of the window, revealing her disheveled appearance, pale profile, and a drop of water that suddenly rolled down from the corner of her eye.
The drop of water fell on the sleeping man's cheek, then slid into the bed sheet and disappeared.
Xia Fuyi blinked and slowly stood up by supporting herself on the edge of the bed.
It took her a long time to tear her eyes away from the man, then she turned and walked out.

The palace door was pushed open.
Lian Tang saw that she seemed to be dazzled by the sunlight and closed her eyes, and did not open them for a long time.
Lian Tang opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but nothing came out.
The pair of dark eyes glanced at him lightly and then drooped. Then, without saying a word, Xia Fuyi walked down the stairs with the sword in hand.
Lian Tang stared blankly at her leaving. After a while, he hurried forward a few steps and shouted,
"Miss Xia! Your reward!"
Xia Fuyi stopped and turned to look at Lian Tang without saying anything. Her eyes were calm, but Lian Tang could clearly see what she meant.
She doesn't want it.
She doesn't need it.
She stayed with Changsun Chi, never for any reward.
All she needs is Changsun Chi. Without this person, she will have no purpose.
Lian Tang's words were choked in his throat. He stared blankly at the pair of eyes that were slowly looking towards the entrance of the hall.
