Xiao Jinglin finally reined in his horse impatiently: "What exactly do you want to do?"
Yun Wenting sighed, but his tone was gentle: "I won't do anything. I'll go wherever you go."
Xiao Jinglin was stunned for a moment, then she waved away Yun Wenting's hand on her waist and said calmly, "I have decided to stay at Jiajing Pass permanently, and my father has agreed. Do you want to guard the border with me?"
"Why not?" Yun Wenting lowered his eyes and whispered, "Lin'er, everyone makes mistakes in life, and I'm an ordinary person, so naturally I'm no exception. But if I make a mistake once, can I never have a chance to correct it?"
Xiao Jinglin was silent for a moment, then got off the horse and pulled Yun Wenting down with him.
The two stood facing each other. Xiao Jinglin frowned and said to Yun Wenting seriously, "When I accompany my mother to watch plays, I find that people always like to watch those dramas of broken mirrors being reconciled. I don't understand. The breakdown of a relationship means that the contradictions between the two parties are irreconcilable, or that the relationship has been abandoned after weighing the pros and cons. If so, even if it is started again ten thousand times, the result will be the same? The contradictions will still exist, and those who have been abandoned will still be abandoned. Master Yun, you are a smart person, why don't you understand this truth?"
Yun Wenting looked at Xiao Jinglin, his expression somewhat gloomy and his voice somewhat hoarse. "Whether you believe it or not, I have never used you as a measure against anything else. If I had, you would never be the one abandoned."
Xiao Jinglin looked at Yun Wenting expressionlessly. "So what? The contradiction is still there. It doesn't disappear just because you pretend not to see it. You can dodge it once, and you can dodge it a second time. A third time? You're an ordinary person, you make mistakes. I'm an ordinary person too, so I made a mistake when I was young, but I've corrected it. I hope you can too."
After saying this, Xiao Jinglin got on the horse swiftly. This time, she did not give Yun Wenting the chance to climb onto her horse's back. She clamped her legs against the horse's belly and rode away without any hesitation.
Yun Wenting watched the man and horse gradually disappear from his sight. He gave a bitter laugh and muttered, "Was it a mistake?"
Yun Wenting didn't know how long he stood there until he sighed, put his hand to his lips and whistled. Soon, the sound of horse hooves was heard on the road, and the horse that Xiao Jinglin had driven away before quickly ran back.
Yun Wenting patted the horse's head, then climbed onto it and chased after Xiao Jinglin in the direction he had disappeared.
Xiao Jinglin was in a bad mood because, shortly after she arrived at Da'an City as scheduled to reunite with her subordinates, she discovered that Yun Wenting had caught up with them again. This time, Yun Wenting did not hide his whereabouts, but followed their cavalry openly and openly.
Most of Xiao Jinglin's subordinates knew Yun Wenting, and they couldn't help but look at the eldest son of the Yun family with some curiosity. They then turned their heads to glance at Princess Xiao. Fortunately, they could see that Xiao Jinglin was looking unhappy, so they didn't ask any questions.
Xiao Jinglin was determined to rush to Wuzhou to find Xiao Jingxi. She didn't have time to waste with Yun Wenting, so when he insisted on following them, she didn't bother to chase him away. She wanted to use force to defeat Yun Wenting, but Yun Wenting's skills were not much weaker than hers, and she really couldn't defeat him without serious action.
After leaving Da'an City, Xiao Jinglin traveled tirelessly, finally passing Xinzhou and reaching the border of Wuzhou. Before he could even enter the city, a group of soldiers and horses came out to greet him. The leader, dressed in a white Confucian robe and sitting upright on his horse, looked so elegant and handsome that many of the female generals in Xiao Jinglin's team blushed.
