Chapter 1325 Just Leave
"Nan Yan..."
The gurgling water flows past, carrying the coldness and sadness of the night.
Li Bushang looked at Nan Yan, who was curled up at the door, trembling and sobbing. The last bit of impulse in his heart had disappeared, and what was left was only slow guilt and heartache.
How could he have the heart to make the person he wanted to protect suffer so much and cry so much?
"Nan Yan..."
He wanted to reach out to protect her, but he was afraid that he would scare her again. Both of his hands were shaking helplessly. After a long while, he whispered, "Nan Yan, I'm sorry."
In an instant, he returned to his former youthful appearance.
When facing her, only when facing her, can I feel full of closeness and care from the bottom of my heart. Only she can make my almost frozen heart produce warm feelings.
How could you bear to hurt her?
Seeing her in pain and crying because of what I did to her, I wanted to stab myself a few times.
Nan Yan didn't look at him. She just choked up and whispered, "I want to go back."
"go back?"
Upon hearing these two words, the guilt he had originally felt turned into anger. Li Bushan frowned, "You still want to go back? Haven't you been tortured enough by him?"
“…”
"If you go back, will you still be alive?"
Nan Yan didn't look at him, but just reached out to hold the door frame and stood up with difficulty. It was already dawn at this time. She reached out to pull the bolt, but what she had experienced before made her hands and feet weak, and she couldn't open it after trying several times.
Li Bushang stretched out his hand and held her hand.
He said, "Do you really want to go back?"
“…”
"Are you so devoted to him?"
Nan Yan lowered her head, tears still on her face, and said slowly: "I have a daughter."
These four words made Li Bushang stunned.
Nan Yan slowly turned around and looked at him, saying sadly, "I have a daughter."
“…”
"I could just walk away, but if I do, those people will definitely pin the blame of 'escaping' on me."
“…”
"What about Xinping? Have you ever thought about what will happen to her?"
Li Bushang's brows suddenly furrowed.
Even though he was not familiar with the harem, he knew very well how cruel the struggles there were. When Nan Yan was favored, many people hated her to the core. Now that she was gone, her daughter would become a tool for them to vent their anger.
However, what Nan Yan didn't expect was that the crime those people accused her of was not "escaping" but "elopement."
"I'm not a good mother, but I can't abandon my daughter."
“…”
Hearing her say this, Lian Li Bushang was speechless.
No one can stop a mother from going back to protect her daughter, not even in the name of "love".
He could only grit his teeth and watch Nan Yan open the door with difficulty and walk out.
After a moment of silence, he couldn't help himself and hurriedly chased after her.
"Nan Yan——"
Even if he had to go back, even if he had to face danger, he couldn't let her face it alone!
But just as he stepped out of the door, he saw Nan Yan standing on the deck, looking ahead in astonishment.
He said, "Nan Yan?"
As soon as he finished speaking, his brows furrowed.
Because he saw that around his boat, on the wide river, many boats suddenly appeared and surrounded them!
