Chapter 5 The Princess (The End)
Three days later
night,
Luo Xi sat in a courtyard, looking up at the bright moon hanging in the sky, lost in thought.
Just then, Luo Yuan, carrying two jugs of wine, walked up to Luo Xi, raised an eyebrow, and pointed to the roof, "I brought some famous wine from the Jiangnan area. Shall we go up and have a seat?"
Luo Xi looked at the wine in his hand and asked with a smile, "Is this wine strong?"
Luo Yuan shook his head. "It's not very strong; it's a mild fruit wine."
Luo Xi stood up. "Okay, let's go upstairs and sit down."
They went up to the roof one after the other and sat side by side on the highest roof.
They drank and talked.
Half an hour later, Luo Yuan gently leaned on Luo Xi's shoulder and whispered, "Xi Xi, I'm drunk."
Upon hearing this, Luo Xi lowered her eyes. She knew how good his alcohol tolerance was; he wouldn't get drunk from this little bit of alcohol.
Luo Yuan knew that Luo Xi knew his alcohol tolerance, and he knew that she definitely knew he was pretending to be drunk.
"Xixi, I like you."
Luo Xi knew he was pretending to be drunk in order to say these things.
She looked up at the big, bright moon. "Cousin, I know you like me, but it's impossible for us to be together."
What you can't have, you'll always miss; but once you get it, the novelty wears off, and the white moonlight will turn into a grain of rice.
Therefore, it's better to have never had it in the first place; that way, it will be more unforgettable.
Luo Yuan: !!!
This answer didn't actually surprise him.
He didn't ask her why, because he knew her; if she wanted to tell him, she would. Since she wasn't telling, it meant she didn't want to.
He opened his eyes, sat up straight, sighed helplessly, then clutched his chest and said, feigning sadness, "Sigh, Xixi, can't you just lie to me?"
Luo Xi: "Of course not."
"Just kidding, what if you believe me?"
Luo Yuan:
She really knows him; he can take things seriously.
Luo Xi patted Luo Yuan on the shoulder and stood up. "Cousin, it's late. Go to sleep early."
After saying that, she jumped down and went back to her room.
As for Luo Yuan, he sat on the roof for a long time...
Several years later
Luo Yuan never made an empress, nor did he ever take any concubines. As for Luo Xi, she also never married.
Originally, Luo Xi thought Luo Yuan would find a substitute or fall in love with someone else.
Unexpectedly, he didn't...
Two years later, Luo Yuan took Luo Xi hunting and encountered assassins. He was accidentally drugged with a particularly potent aphrodisiac, and Luo Xi was the only woman with him. And so, they ended up sleeping together.
This time, they had a child, Luo Chen.
Luo Yuan doted on Luo Chen. Not long after Luo Chen was born, he named him Crown Prince and took him everywhere he went.
As for Luo Xi, she did not enter the palace.
