Chapter 415: The Concubine's Sister Who Traveled Through Time VS The Legitimate Sister Who Was Reborn (21)
"Go out, I want to be alone." Shi Yi's voice returned to its coldness.
"Miss, I haven't eaten the candied fruit yet." Lu Ya felt a little aggrieved. She was scolded by the housekeeper for this candied fruit.
"I'll eat it later." Shi Yi paused for a moment and said distressedly: "Go down and have a rest. You've worked hard these days. There are bloodshot eyes."
Lu Ya had never expected that her mistress could actually observe these things, and even see the bloodshot eyes in her eyes. She was moved and sighed.
"Miss, you have to take care of yourself too. You don't know that during the few days you were in a coma, Madam came to accompany you every day and cried every day. Lu Ya was moved by Madam."
After speaking, Lu Ya seemed a little embarrassed, put down the candied fruit jar and ran out the door.
"How are you?" Seeing that there was no one in the room, Qi Yanlai flipped down from the beam.
He knew that she was in trouble these few days after he came back, and he had always wanted to come and see her, but he was delayed by the affairs in the court and had not been able to get away.
"It's okay. It's nothing serious." Shi Yi deliberately turned around and faced away from him. If Qi Yanlai didn't know that the other party was angry with him, he would really have no need to be a human being.
"I can explain." He was a little flustered, but he didn't know where to start explaining.
"No need. The eldest prince is busy with official duties, how can he take care of me." Shi Yi lowered his voice.
"No, no." The eldest prince became more nervous, and explained hesitantly: "It's not like that. I'm here because of my father..."
"Stop. The eldest prince, I'm just the daughter of an official, and I don't want to get involved in your royal affairs.
" Shi Yi turned around and stared at him again. "Then let's not talk about this." Qi Yanlai stared at her face greedily, carefully describing her facial features and contours, and found that she was much thinner than before in Jiangnan, with almost no meat on her face, and her eyes were much duller than before. He said somewhat lonely: "Your elder sister and third sister are married."
He wanted to ask "When will you get married?" When he thought of the names of the daughters of officials listed in the imperial edict given to him by his father, his heart ached.
"Well." Shi Yi didn't have a good tone.
"Don't you have a lover?" Qi Yanlai couldn't help asking.
"Yes." Shi Yi deliberately forced a smile and stared into his eyes.
Qi Yanlai's sadness stretched endlessly, "So when do you plan to marry him?"
"Whenever I want." Shi Yi stared into his eyes, seemingly provocative, and seemed to be teasing, "Does the eldest prince want to marry me? Although I, Ge Shiyi, am not a talented woman or a peerless beauty, I have never been a concubine or a concubine. The eldest prince is so noble, and I know I can't afford it."
"You hate me." Qi Yanlai suddenly affirmed.
She was facing the vicious bandits alone, and she must have hoped that he could appear and save her from danger. But not only did he not show up, he even showed up so late to visit her.
"Why do you hate me?" Shi Yi asked back, "Do I have any special relationship with the eldest prince? We have always been emotional and polite, and never overstepped the line. The eldest prince is a candidate for the throne, and I am just an unknown daughter of the three daughters of Ge Yushi's family."
"You still hate me." Qi Yanlai half-knelt in front of her bed, reaching out to grab her wrist, but was forced back by her eyes.
"What does the eldest prince think of me as a daughter of the Ge family?" Shi Yi looked at him with a smile, and even put her hand under his eyelids.
"You know I'm not such a frivolous person. I'm just worried about you." Qi Yanlai's eyes flashed with hurt. He felt that she was like a steel knife now, speaking and doing things very directly. Every word she said directly pierced into his flesh and made him hurt.
"Worried about me?" Shi Yi snorted, "We have nothing to do with each other. Don't say such things, eldest prince. Spread it out and let others gossip about my daughter of the Ge family."
"You obviously hate that I didn't have time! You just hate me. You hate me. Why don't you dare to admit it. You are obviously attracted to me." Qi Yanlai was stabbed by her and lost his mind. He grabbed her hand regardless of anything and spoke out his heart. "You obviously like me. Because you like me, you have expectations of me. So you hate me, hate that I didn't have time. Hate that I put you in danger. Hate that I visited you so late. You obviously like me, why don't you admit it."
"There's nothing to hate." Shi Yi withdrew his hand indifferently, "Like you is my own business. It has nothing to do with you. It's my own business to expect you to appear. It's also my own business to be sad when you didn't appear. So, it's all my business. Don't think too much, eldest prince."
Qi Yanlai's hand was still clenched in the air. For the first time, he found that a woman's hand was so thin. His heart was endlessly desolate. He had no choice. There was no way to make her not disappointed in him.
He should have appeared when she needed him the most. But he didn't.
In fact, he should have appeared. But he returned to Kyoto early for other things. So, she was in danger.
"I really don't hate you. I just can't help but feel a little disappointed." Shi Yi suddenly sighed, "I hate myself for being greedy. I hate myself for falling in love with someone as noble as you."
Qi Yanlai was overwhelmed by great joy. He never thought that she would personally admit that she liked him.
He liked her that much, too. He wanted them to be together so much.
"When I faced the bandits, I was not afraid, nor did I have the hatred you said. I only thought of a figure. I thought that if I really died under this knife, he would be sad for the rest of his life. This is what really makes me sad. I don't know when I started to care about you. But when I realized it, you were already in my heart and could not be erased. But I don't have any outstanding skills, and I can't help you at all. How dare I expect you to be my partner for the rest of my life?" After Shi Yi finished speaking, he covered his quilt and cried bitterly.
Qi Yanlai wanted to reach out his hand but hesitated. He had never thought that he would encounter such a strong love in his life. Although this kind of love was not turbulent, it made him more shocked. What surprised him even more was that his emotions were reciprocated by her.
He looked out the window with an indifferent expression, and the light in his eyes extinguished inch by inch, and then ignited inch by inch.
This time, he stretched out his hand without hesitation. He tightly grasped the hand of his beloved woman and said firmly: "Do you believe me?"
