See you again
Song Linluo woke up at dawn and hurriedly dressed herself. She was not used to using rouge and powder in the past, but today she used them for the first time.
Xiao Yuchen promised her that he would let her meet Gu Yejiao, so she had to dress up nicely today. She couldn't let Gu Yejiao see her so weak.
Song Linluo looked at himself in the mirror, feeling inexplicably complicated. His face was as white as a piece of paper, without a trace of blood.
She lowered her eyes slightly, trying to comfort herself. After a moment, she smiled slightly, and her mood became a little better when she looked at her makeup today.
Song Linluo stood up and just as he walked to the door, he heard someone knocking.
She opened the door and saw Xiao Yuchen standing outside. He rarely wore white clothes, which gave him a cool and elegant temperament. Song Linluo didn't recognize him for a moment.
Xiao Yuchen looked down at Song Linluo, pursed his lips, and thought for a moment before speaking: "Luo'er's makeup looks good today."
Song Linluo: "Achen's is not bad either."
Xiao Yuchen took Song Linluo's hand and said, "I'll take you to the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion."
Song Linluo didn't answer and let Xiao Yuchen lead him away.
The carriage had been waiting outside the palace gate for a long time, and Xiao Yuchen helped Song Linluo get on the carriage.
The carriage stopped outside the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion, and Song Linluo lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage.
She turned around and looked at Gu Yejiao, forcing a smile and said, "Long time no see, Jiao'er."
The moment Gu Yejiao saw Song Linluo, her heart trembled slightly.
Her eyes were slightly moist. She ran forward and threw herself into Song Linluo's arms, choking with sobs: "Luo'er, I've been waiting for you for more than five years..."
Song Linluo patted Gu Yejiao's back and said softly, "Okay, I'm here to see you, aren't I?"
Gu Yejiao wiped her tears, looked up at Song Linluo, and sniffed: "Look at you, you've lost weight."
Song Linluo patted Gu Yejiao's head and said, "I finally got here once, why don't you invite me in to sit down?"
Gu Yejiao looked at the carriage and couldn't help but feel suspicious. Why didn't Xiao Yuchen get off?
Xiao Yuchen lifted the curtain and walked out of the carriage.
When Gu Yejiao saw Xiao Yuchen, she knelt down hurriedly and said, "Long live the emperor."
Xiao Yuchen said "hmm" and ignored Gu Yejiao and walked straight into the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion.
Gu Yejiao stood up from the ground, took Song Linluo's arm, and said, "Luo'er, I'll take you into the house to sit down."
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Linluo was pulled into the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion.
Bedroom.
Gu Yejiao poured a cup of tea for Song Linluo and handed it to him: "Luo'er, try it. I made this especially for you today."
Song Linluo took the tea, took a sip, and said, "The tea is well brewed."
Gu Yejiao smiled and said, "Luo'er, how have Shuxue and the Ninth Prince been doing since they were captured that day? I can't find any news about them from the outside world."
After being captured, only two from the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion were released, and the others were imprisoned and used as bargaining chips for Xiao Yuchen to threaten Song Linluo.
When Song Linluo heard "Song Shuxue", he couldn't help but tremble, a sour feeling surged to the tip of his nose, and his eyes were slightly moist.
She sighed, "At that time, Shuxue was shot dead by Xiao Yuchen himself in order to save me... Jun Wuyang had his eyes gouged out..."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yejiao gritted her teeth and grumbled, "Xiao Yuchen really hasn't changed his mind!"
Song Linluo wiped her tears, trying not to lose control of her emotions. She smiled and said, "Jiao'er, let's not talk about him. I came here today just to see how you were doing. Now that I see that you're doing well, I'm relieved."
Gu Yejiao looked at Song Linluo's expression and always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure it out for a moment.
She wanted to say something else when Gu Nanxun and Xiao Yuchen came over.
Gu Nanxun bowed to Song Linluo and said, "Long time no see."
Song Linluo replied, "Long time no see." She stood up and said, "General Gu, please follow me. I have something to say to you."
Xiao Yuchen walked to the stool, sat down, poured himself a cup of tea and drank it slowly.
Seeing that Xiao Yuchen did not stop him, Gu Nanxun followed Song Linluo out.
Song Linluo stopped only when he reached a secluded place.
Gu Nanxun looked around and said coldly, "Why did you call me here?"
Song Linluo took a deep breath and said, "Gu Nanxun, I can see how you feel about Jiao'er. I may not be able to attend your wedding, but I promised you in advance that you will love Jiao'er wholeheartedly."
Gu Nanxun paused and said, "Okay... I'll take good care of Jiao'er." He hesitated for a moment, then asked, "What are you going to do in the future?"
Based on the world's understanding of Xiao Yuchen, Song Linluo is his fatal weakness. But Song Linluo is also a person who yearns for freedom. The two of them are destined to go through many ups and downs together.
Song Linluo raised his eyes and looked at the bird flying freely in the sky. He couldn't help but smile: "The gap between him and me is too big. I can't cross it... Countless lives have been lost between him and me. I don't know how to love him anymore. Maybe death is the best choice."
Gu Nanxun lowered his eyes, pursed his lips and said, "I respect your choice."
Song Linluo sighed and said, "I've said everything I need to say. Let's go back."
Gu Nanxun didn't reply, but just followed Song Linluo back silently.
When Gu Yejiao saw Song Linluo and her brother coming back, she hurried forward, grabbed Song Linluo, and said, "What were you two doing? It took you so long to come back."
Song Linluo smiled lightly: "I talked to your brother about you."
Gu Yejiao: About me?
Gu Yejiao couldn't help but feel a little curious, and tilted her head and asked, "About me? What's going on?"
Song Linluo raised his hand and gently tapped Gu Yejiao's forehead, saying, "Jiao'er, this is a secret."
Gu Yejiao lowered her head slightly, like a child admitting her mistake: "Oh... I see."
After she finished speaking, Gu Yejiao pulled Song Linluo to sit on the stool again, and the two chatted from morning to night. Song Linluo never got tired of accompanying Gu Yejiao.
Gu Yejiao was also not idle. Her little mouth never stopped talking from morning to night, telling Song Linluo all the grievances she had suffered in the past five years.
Gu Yejiao leaned on the table and said, "Luo'er, do you know? Ever since you were captured by that bad guy, I have been helping you run the restaurant all day long, and I have to busy myself with this and that! That bastard Gu Nanxun doesn't even help me..."
As she spoke, Gu Yejiao began to feel aggrieved.
Song Linluo smiled and said, "Jiao'er, you've worked hard."
Xiao Yuchen sat aside and looked at Song Linluo. This was the first time he saw Song Linluo smile in five years.
Gu Yejiao hugged Song Linluo's arm, leaned on her shoulder and rubbed it, saying, "Only Luo'er feels sorry for me."
Song Linluo rubbed Gu Yejiao's head and said, "Okay, it's getting late today, I should go back to the palace."
When Gu Yejiao heard that Song Linluo was going back to the palace, she sat up straight and said reluctantly, "Are you leaving now? Can you not leave..."
I haven't slept a wink today. Song Linluo is pregnant, so it's inevitable that her body won't be able to bear such fatigue.
Song Linluo sighed and said, "Jiao'er, all good things must come to an end. I'm very happy to see you today. It's time for me to leave."
Gu Yejiao said a little disappointedly: "Okay, I understand..."
Song Linluo stood up, and her vision gradually became blurred. She stood there, and suddenly her vision went black, and her body fell down uncontrollably.
"Luo'er!"
Gu Yejiao wanted to reach out and grab Song Linluo, but she failed to catch him. Fortunately, Xiao Yuchen arrived in time and caught Song Linluo, preventing him from falling to the ground.
Xiao Yuchen picked up Song Linluo and said, "Miss Gu, I will take my wife back to the palace first. Goodbye."
After saying this, Xiao Yuchen left.
The moment Xiao Yuchen picked up Song Linluo, Gu Yejiao saw Song Linluo's slightly bulging belly and was a little surprised. She stood there in a daze.
After an unknown amount of time, Gu Nanxun came over and poked Gu Yejiao on the back, saying, "Everyone has left, why are you still in a daze?"
Gu Yejiao came back to her senses and said, "Brother, Luo'er is pregnant."
What surprised Gu Yejiao was not that Song Linluo was pregnant, but that Song Linluo could patiently accompany her for such a long time despite his weak body. She couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
Gu Nanxun frowned and said, "You didn't just notice it, did you?"
Gu Yejiao nodded slightly and said "hmm".
Gu Nanxun sighed: "Jiao'er, she will be getting married to Xiao Yuchen in a few days. I will take you to meet her then."
Now only Gu Nanxun knows that the next time they meet will truly be the last time.
He could understand everything Song Linluo did. After all, there were so many lives between the two of them. Even if the broken mirror was mended, the cracks would still be there.
Gu Yejiao hugged Gu Nanxun and burst into tears: "Brother, how could Luo'er... be so miserable...will she do something stupid..."
Gu Nanxun patted Gu Yejiao on the back and said, "That's her choice..."
Gu Yejiao felt more and more aggrieved as she cried. She asked, "Brother, what did Luo'er say to you today?"
She wanted to know what choice Song Linluo had made, but deep down she didn't dare to know. She was afraid that if she knew, she would be powerless to stop him and could only watch helplessly.
Gu Nanxun: "You'll know when the time comes."
Gu Yejiao did not continue to ask questions, but just quietly wiped her tears, and finally fell asleep in a daze.
Gu Nanxun put Gu Yejiao on the bed, covered her with a quilt, walked to the table and blew out the candle. The whole room was swallowed up by darkness in an instant, and he turned around and walked out of the room.
Outside the room, he stopped and looked up at the deep night sky, feeling mixed emotions.
He knew that there were some things he couldn't change even if he knew them, and he could only helplessly watch others die.
He didn't know what was the right thing to do, he only knew that if he didn't do it, he might regret it for the rest of his life, so she chose to respect Song Linluo's decision. Sometimes death is also a relief, isn't it?
Gu Nanxun sighed and stopped himself from thinking about it. He didn't leave until he calmed down a little.
