Chapter 52 You're Missing Me



Winter has passed and spring has come, the ice and snow have melted, the daffodils have bloomed, but the beauty has not returned.

Hua Yuxian hadn't seen Gu Liyan come downstairs for several days, and she was a little worried. Seeing the daffodils in bloom, she couldn't resist picking a few branches...

Hua Yuxian arrived at Gu Liyan's room with the flowers she had prepared. Before she could even knock on the door, Gu Liyan said, "Come in."

Hua Yuxian was delighted to hear his voice. He showed no dissatisfaction with her and remained the same indifferent Gu Liyan!

As far as Hua Yuxian is concerned, as long as Gu Liyan doesn't dislike her, that's all that matters.

With his back to Hua Yuxian as she entered, Gu Liyan softly asked, "Is there something you need?"

Hua Yuxian stepped forward, about to speak, when she saw Gu Liyan, who looked pale and tired, ask worriedly, "Are you... are you alright?"

Gu Liyan raised his head, and apart from his purple pupils, all that remained were red blood vessels. "What could be wrong with me?"

Looking at Gu Liyan, who seemed lost and dazed all day, Hua Yuxian finally couldn't help but ask, "Haven't you meditated under the Juyuan Tree in a long time?"

Gu Liyan didn't speak or even glance at her; he just stared blankly at the paper fan in his hand.

Seeing that Gu Liyan ignored her, Hua Yuxian simply said nothing more. She just placed the daffodils she had brought in the most conspicuous spot in front of Gu Liyan's window, so that he would likely see them first thing every morning when he woke up...

But just as they were arranged, Gu Liyan suddenly spoke up, "Take them away, I don't like daffodils!"

Hua Yuxian's hand trembled slightly, and she turned her head, saying with some displeasure, "Gu Liyan, do you know that this is Xiaobai's favorite flower?"

Gu Liyan looked up at the pure white daffodil in Hua Yuxian's hand, then looked at Hua Yuxian again, and said with some disappointment, "That was just something she used to like..."

Lowering her head, Gu Liyan looked at the peach blossoms painted on the paper fan and smiled slightly: In this life, she loves the peach blossoms on her own eyebrows and eyes!

Hua Yuxian didn't understand Gu Liyan's feelings. She angrily threw the narcissus on the ground and accused him, "I really don't understand you. You clearly said you came to find Hua Baixian, but you've been staying here for so long. Do you even want to find her?"

Hua Yuxian stared intently at Gu Liyan, tears welling in her eyes. She even wanted to shout out to Gu Liyan:

If he no longer wants to bother Hua Baixian, she will definitely abandon all dignity and become Hua Baixian's substitute! She will protect Gu Liyan by his side for all eternity!

But……

From the moment he entered the room, Gu Liyan only glanced at her once!

Just one glance!

How could she not feel desperate!

Gu Liyan glanced at the daffodil thrown on the ground, his eyes flashing with anger. "Although I don't like it, that doesn't mean you can trample on life at will!"

Hua Yuxian trembled, suddenly remembering her duties as the Flower Goddess, and lowered her head, saying, "I'm so sorry..."

After saying that, Hua Yuxian had no face to stay there any longer and ran out with red eyes.

Gu Liyan put away his paper fan, picked up the daffodil from the ground, shook off the dust, raised his hand, and a surge of life-giving energy enveloped it. His shadow could be seen on the pure white petals.

Gu Liyan placed it by the window and smiled, "What she likes, I like too!"

only……

I just don't want to share this pure and beautiful thing with anyone other than her!

That belongs to her, and she alone can possess it!

Just like she belongs to Gu Liyan, and only he can possess her!

Pushing open the window and seeing the Gathering Fate Tree, Gu Liyan couldn't help but smile and mutter to himself, "Xian'er, when the first peach blossom blooms, I will come to find you!"

--wait for me!

The tea in her cup had been cold for who knows how long when Su Xian'er finally snapped out of her daze at Xiao Cui's call.

"Miss, this tea has gone cold. Would you like some fresh tea?" Xiao Cui asked.

Su Xian'er was taken aback for a moment, then casually waved her hand and said, "Go ahead, go ahead."

Xiao Cui picked up the teapot and left the room. Su Xian'er sighed. Xiao Cui was like a shadow, always following her around, and there was no chance to get rid of her.

Every time she said she wanted to go out to play, she refused to go out because of Su Hu's instructions, which was one of the reasons why Su Xian'er had no choice but to give up.

Winter has passed, but I still haven't kept my promise to go back...

She couldn't sleep, day or night, thinking about Gu Liyan. She couldn't forget him; everything about him was so clear in her mind!

Suddenly, Su Xian'er noticed a very conspicuous yet simple jade hairpin in the jewelry box. She was stunned and hurriedly stepped forward to take it in her hand. The carved peach blossoms were exactly the same as the marks on someone's eyebrows and eyes!

"This is..." Su Xian'er's heart pounded. She had a special feeling that this jade hairpin was made by Gu Liyan!

Could it be that I met Gu Liyan before, and this was left behind by him? But in the end, I forgot about him, and even more so, I forgot about this thing!

Su Xian'er held him in her arms. Being forgotten by the one you love must be a very painful thing, right?

“Gu Liyan…” Su Xian’er held it tightly in her hand; she didn’t want to wait a moment longer—

However, without Su Xian'er and Gu Liyan's knowledge, Su Hu's secret plan to turn the enemy into a rebel was discovered by someone with ulterior motives, and the news was spread to Chaoge City!

The reason why Emperor Xin became emperor was that instead of expanding his territory, he recruited soldiers and horses to find beautiful women from all over the world! This became the source of his disloyalty.

After learning that Mu Qing had not died in the fire, Emperor Xin went mad and wanted to find all the beautiful women in the world. In just a few months, his harem had grown to three thousand beauties!

Although Di Xin's true intention was on the surface, only Di Xin himself knew that the only person he wanted to find was Mu Qing!

Golden Goblet of Fine Wine

The Land and Rivers

That's not enough!

He's missing her by his side!

"Your Majesty, the evidence of Su Hu's intention to rebel is irrefutable. Please make your decision!"

Emperor Xin glanced at the court officials and said, "I have not failed to place high hopes on you all; your efficiency is truly remarkable! Send someone to Jizhou to directly bring Su Hu..."

"Your Majesty! I suspect something is amiss!" Li Jing suddenly spoke up.

Di Xin looked coldly at Li Jing and asked, "Minister Li, what makes you say such a thing?"

“Su Hu is a loyal and righteous man, and there is absolutely no reason for him to rebel. Please investigate thoroughly before making a decision!” Li Jing continued.

If Gu Liyan hadn't revealed the information about his three sons in one sentence, Li Jing would probably still be on his journey with a confused and worried look on his face.

In order to repay the favor, he could only try to curry favor with the Su family first, hoping to gain some goodwill from Gu Liyan.

However, the emperor's intentions are not easily fathomed. Emperor Xin squinted at Li Jing and said, "If Minister Li wants to find out the truth, then come with me to Jizhou!"

"Your Majesty, this..." Li Jing looked at Di Xin with astonishment.

"Since you, Minister Li, strongly support Su Hu, then I entrust my safety to you! Depart immediately and go back to prepare!" Di Xin smiled coldly.

After saying that, he got up and left.

Li Jing stood there for a long time, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Was Di Xin worried that he would inform the Su family, which was why he wanted to go with him?
