Xie Qin knew that Mo Lin was worried about Su Miao, so he listed all the mansions he knew about for Mo Lin.
Shen Changji has achieved many military exploits over the years, and the emperor has rewarded him with many things, but he only knows about a few.
After Mo Lin received the document, he went to two places to look for Su Miao, but still couldn't find her.
As a fellow man, he could guess something from the situation.
It won't be so easy for them to find Su Miao, given the long silence.
The only way is to ask him in person...
Mo Lin's expression softened, and he led his men to find Shen Changji.
—
Upon hearing the report from his subordinate, Lone Eagle cautiously inquired of his master, "General Mo has arrived, shall we see him?"
Shen Changji put down what he was holding, his eyes cold, and said indifferently, "Let him in."
Over the years, he has taken good care of Su Miao. Perhaps in that little woman's heart, she has already regarded Mo Lin as half a family member.
It just so happens that he hopes Mo Lin can understand his relationship with Su Miao.
When Mo Lin saw Shen Changji, he first took a sip of tea to calm his inner turmoil before slowly saying, "General Shen, let's not beat around the bush. Miao'er is just a young girl who has had a difficult journey. If you like her, then don't let her suffer."
"pain?"
Shen Changji didn't believe that Su Miao disliked him.
Being with him is truly a painful experience?
Mo Lin: "Yes. Although I shouldn't interfere in your relationship with Miao'er, I've long regarded Miao'er as my own sister."
To be honest, General Shen, Miao'er has a heart condition. If you force her like this... I'm afraid it's not appropriate.
General Shen may not think this heart ailment is serious, but this illness... has been going on for many years.
The implication was that although Su Miao appeared to be a normal person, her condition might actually be much more serious than he imagined, in ways he couldn't see.
Upon hearing this, Shen Changji recalled images of Su Miao acting strangely.
He sat in the main seat, his face expressionless, but his hands, hidden under his sleeves, gripped the armrests tightly.
Is he going to let her go?
But if he lets her go, she'll run away...
If he runs away, he might never see her again.
Scenes from the past kept replaying in his mind; every smile and frown of hers was deeply imprinted in his heart.
How could he possibly be willing to give it up?
A sharp pain surged in Shen Changji's heart, his mind filled with struggle and pain, and bitterness filled his entire chest.
Mo Lin: "General Shen can think it over carefully. Miao'er... really can't afford to waste any more time."
Although he didn't see Su Miao, he could guess that Su Miao was probably not feeling well either.
Since that's the case, let's save face...
But Mo Lin didn't say these words.
He didn't stay long; he quickly got up and left to continue his search for Su Miao.
As soon as Mo Lin left, Lone Eagle rushed in.
Shen Changji didn't look up, but asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong with her?"
"The young lady is awake, but she has no appetite. She even knocked over the food and started making a fuss about going out..."
She said that if her master didn't let her out, she wouldn't eat a single bite of food.
When Lone Eagle said this, he didn't dare to look at his master's face at all.
"You haven't eaten?"
"They didn't eat..."
Lone Eagle remembered that before his master left, he specially roasted a pigeon, and it seemed that... that was also overturned by his cousin.
Thinking of what Mo Lin had just said, Shen Changji put down what he was doing and went back.
When Tao'er saw Shen Changji, she looked like she wanted to say something but hesitated.
But when Shen Changji saw the mess that had been cleaned up, he knew that Su Miao had just lost her temper.
"Should I go and inform them?"
Tao'er saw Shen Changji standing in front of the house and couldn't help but ask a question.
"No need, you can all go down first."
"yes."
After the person left, Shen Changji did not go directly into Su Miao's room.
Instead, he stood under the banyan tree for a while before quietly approaching.
Standing behind the door, Shen Changji could see Su Miao sitting at the dressing table.
The dress she was wearing was one he had personally changed her into before he left today.
Right now, her face still lacked its usual vitality, and her lips were somewhat pale.
Even so, it couldn't hide her innate beauty.
Su Miao looked at herself in the mirror, lost in thought, her eyes blank.
Seeing that frail figure made Shen Changji feel uneasy.
Miao'er...
Why……
He choked, his hand digging into his palm, but felt no pain whatsoever.
Shen Changji neither went in nor spoke.
He stood leaning against the door until Su Miao fell asleep before leaving.
The study was not far from where Su Miao lived, and Shen Changji's gaze was fixed on the sachet on the table.
That was made by Su Miao herself.
When it was given to him, he neither liked nor cared about it.
But despite his attitude, Su Miao still smiled and told him about the uses of the sachet.
She even... said several words of blessing to him.
She also said she only liked him.
But later... she said it was all fake, that she was lying to him!
When she said she hated him with red eyes, it was like a sharp dagger stabbing deep into his heart.
“Su Miao…”
Shen Changji's eyes reddened as he clutched the sachet tightly, his fingertips rubbing against the patterns on it.
He still remembered what Mo Lin had said.
"Miao'er, we really can't afford to wait any longer."
We can't afford to wait...
Chen Changji couldn't help but think of his mother.
He was young then and didn't understand what was going on. He only knew that his mother cried every day and was extremely haggard.
