Bai Hanxiao didn't move, she just stood there and looked at him. "If she doesn't like you, why do you want to marry her... Are you in love with her?"
“…”
"If I hadn't entered the palace as a concubine, would you have liked me and married me as your princess?"
“…”
"Forget it, I won't ask anymore. You didn't treat me like this before. You would joke with me and talk about many interesting things. As long as I said something, you would think carefully and then answer me! Everything is different now!" Bai Hanxiao's cloak fell to the ground and he turned and left.
Ma Qingyi hid in the corner, bent over, and secretly looked inside the window. Bai Lishen wanted to go in, but was stopped by Ma Qingyi. "Why are you going in? It's better to destroy ten temples than to ruin a marriage. Have you ever heard of this saying?"
"What marriage? She is the queen now. She should just do her job well and be a queen honestly!" Bai Lishen said angrily.
"Are you a brother? Your sister obviously doesn't like the emperor, and you are still forcing her. She will go crazy!" Ma Qingyi stood up, glanced at him and scolded.
"I am not worthy of being your brother, and I am not worthy to the end!" Bai Lishen suddenly roared.
Ma Qingyi looked at him blankly, and when she saw him running out, she forgot to stop him. When she wanted to rush out to stop him, she found Bai Hanxiao opened the door and walked out.
Bai Lishen stopped and stood there. Ma Qingyi ran over and patted him, motioning him to come over.
Ma Qingyi followed Bai Hanxiao, looked at her red and swollen eyes, and asked angrily, "Did he bully you? I'll go teach him a lesson!"
Bai Hanxiao grabbed Ma Qingyi who was turning around and preparing to go to Mo Yufeng's study to teach him a lesson.
"No need! I should go now. The emperor must be worried!" After saying that, Bai Hanxiao turned around and left.
Ma Qingyi, who had stopped where she was, turned and went to the study. Ignoring the guards' attempts to stop her, she pushed open the door and looked at Mo Yufeng. Mo Yufeng lowered his eyes to look at a pendant in his hand. Ma Qingyi clapped her hands on the table and asked him, "Why is Bai Hanxiao crying? Did you say something unpleasant?"
Mo Yufeng raised his eyes and looked at her, his expression was sullen and his eyes were cold. He had a cold disease himself and now he looked as if a single word from him could freeze someone.
"Ma Qingyi, am I too lenient with you? You break my rules again and again. Do you think I will not do anything to you?" Mo Yufeng growled.
Ma Qingyi was so frightened that she didn't dare to speak at all and just stared at him blankly.
I just ran away from home a few times. Is it necessary to get so angry?
Hong Yi suddenly ran in and saw the angry Mo Yufeng and the frightened Ma Qingyi standing opposite him.
"I heard some noise and ran in..." Hong Yi said carefully.
Ma Qingyi looked at him, lowered her eyes, and said in a weak and steady voice, "I can finish all my medicine tomorrow. Then you can go out for a day as you promised me!" After that, she turned and left, bumping into Hong Yi's shoulder.
Ma Qingyi returned to her room, closed the door, and lay on the table, hiding her face in her arms. Her shoulders were shaking and she was crying silently.
Chunling stood outside the door and knocked on it anxiously, "Miss, please open the door...Miss, what's wrong with you!...Miss!"
Suddenly, her shoulders felt tight, and Chunling turned around and found that it was Bai Lishen.
Bai Lishen asked her to stand aside and pushed the door open and walked in.
"Get out!" Ma Qingyi suddenly shouted.
Bai Lishen closed the door, walked over to sit beside her, put his hand on her shoulder, and said softly, "Not all love in the world will be reciprocated... Perhaps the most beautiful feeling is the kind that is not reciprocated but is still willing to silently protect the one she loves..."
"What's the point of guarding if there is no response!" Ma Qingyi raised her head and said with red eyes.
"You think love is too simple!" Bai Lishen said earnestly.
“…” Ma Qingyi fell on the table, not saying a word.
"Your Highness..." Chunling's voice was heard outside the door.
Ma Qingyi got up and walked to the bed, covering herself with the quilt.
Mo Yufeng pushed open the door and saw Bai Lishen sitting on a chair. Looking inside, he saw Ma Qingyi lying on the bed.
Mo Yufeng said with a gloomy face, "What are you doing here!"
"You made my sister cry, I can't stay here," Bai Lishen said coldly.
The person in front of him was his brother, but it was his brother who hurt his own sister. Bai Lishen couldn't just ignore it.
"Her matter... I can only say sorry! Give this thing to her!" Mo Yufeng put the pendant in his hand on the table.
Bai Lishen suddenly stood up, picked up the pendant with trembling hands, and his eyes were full of surprise. "She gave all this to you!"
This white phoenix pendant is the princess of Baihan Kingdom’s token of love. It is to be given to her beloved. Once given, it symbolizes that the princess belongs to this person for the rest of her life!
"I really can't accept such a generous gift!" Mo Yufeng said coldly.
"Mo Yufeng, I consider you my best friend in the capital. Since you don't accept it, I have nothing to say. Then don't appear in front of her ever again!" Bai Lishen said lightly, looking at the pendant in his hand, turned and left.
The door was closed with a bang. Mo Yufeng looked at the person who hid himself in the quilt, walked over and sat beside her, gently lifted the quilt, and Ma Qingyi quickly pulled the quilt back from his hand.
Mo Yufeng chuckled, "Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival. Weiyilou will hold a game. The winner will not only receive a reward, but also be able to drink for free at Weiyilou for three months!"
"..." Ma Qingyi sat up, covering her quilt with her hands, and looked at him with her head exposed. "Why are you doing this?"
Mo Yufeng looked at her red and swollen eyes, which were like two walnuts, and reached out his hand to touch them. Ma Qingyi looked at him fiercely and slapped his hand away, looking at him viciously.
"What do you want to do!" Ma Qingyi took a few steps back.
"I'm sorry!" Mo Yufeng said with his eyes lowered.
Ma Qingyi couldn't believe what she heard and asked again, "What did you just say?"
"I'm sorry!" Mo Yufeng said without any hesitation.
"Are you...in love with me?" Ma Qingyi said uncertainly with a frown.
"...Yes, I like you!" Mo Yufeng looked into her eyes with such a deep gaze that it was impossible to tell whether what he said was true or false!
"You instigated Bai Hanxiao to wear that kind of clothes and bring me wine. I was very angry, so I got angry at you... I didn't mean it!" Mo Yufeng continued.
Ma Qingyi suddenly ran out of bed and was grabbed by Mo Yufeng. "Where are you going?"
"I... I might be dreaming!..." Ma Qingyi said with a somewhat empty look in her eyes and a panicked expression, then looked at him, "How can you like me! You can't like me... I have..."
I have someone I like...
