Chapter 398 Stop taking the medicine
Shen Qing also had a brain twitch.
But when he said this, she really thought that sometimes things like love can make people's brains go crazy and they can't help themselves.
This rarely happens to her, but she really couldn't help it this time.
She was filled with emotion and annoyance in her heart. Xuanyuan Ling was fine most of the time, but whenever something happened, he could always disrupt her expectations.
In fact, what does it matter if he doesn't say it? He knows the matter of establishing a crown prince very well. He has his own plans in mind. Whether he finds Xiaoliu or someone else, what's wrong with not telling her? But he still let her know, this is to give her a sense of security.
He never hesitated to give her enough sense of security.
When Shen Qing hadn't thought about whether she would mind him finding someone else, he had already considered whether she would mind and consciously tried to coax her. When Shen Qing thought that there was nothing wrong with a new person entering the palace, he had already considered that she might be upset, so he gave her a deadline to rest assured and told her that he would only have her if he had two more children. When Shen Qing didn't want to have children and even poured cold water on Xuanyuan Ling and asked him if she really couldn't get pregnant, he told her that he would issue a will to protect her no matter what. Until all these years, he has never gone back on his words, not even once. He took care of the princes and princesses and would not completely avoid setting foot in other people's bedrooms, but he had no one else except her.
He had done his best to give her everything he could that did not exceed his bottom line. Now he even considered Xiaoliu first when it came to the position of crown prince...
Chen Qing just thought that he was testing her. This was the self-protection consciousness in her heart. To this day, if she really said testing, then her relationship with Xuanyuan Ling over the years was really unclear. She was as honest as possible, and he was the same as far as she knew. Except that she didn't love him that deeply, Chen Qing was also genuine and revealed her true nature to him.
Not to mention the past, just the present, she has been getting along with him as her truest self, and he likes it this way. This is their relationship over the past few years. Even though there are bottom lines, how can this not be considered love?
Shen Qing had complicated feelings in her mind, so she didn't notice that Xuanyuan Ling was also stunned when he heard her words.
Chen Qing felt that Xuanyuan Ling would disrupt her expectations when something happened. Didn't Xuanyuan Ling feel the same way?
Chen Qing was too sensible, too good at pleasing others, and too smart. Sometimes Xuanyuan Ling felt that Chen Qing understood him better than he did himself. She knew just the right moments when he was worried, when he was in a bad mood, and when he was happy, and she always made him feel more comfortable. She seemed to look like what he liked best, but even though she was so smart, he thought she was timid, pitiful, and dependent at first.
Xuanyuan Ling would laugh when he thought of his impression of her at the beginning. How could she be timid? It was true that she was bullied because of her poor family background, but she was not a soft-tempered person. She dared to turn her face away from him at the beginning. Why didn't he realize that she was pretending at the beginning? Maybe it was because her feelings gradually deepened that he gradually felt that the feelings she showed were not as deep as he imagined? Or maybe he realized that she could see the overall situation of the court clearly, and then thought that she could deal with the queen, so why couldn't she deal with him?
When Xuanyuan Ling thought of this, his eyes darkened a little, but over the years, he had thought about this question countless times and had the answer in his heart. After all, no matter what, he just couldn't bear to part with her. He just couldn't bear to ignore her just because she was not as good as he thought.
How could he let her go after she had nearly died twice? He really couldn't bear to let her go.
So... admit it.
This feeling of admitting defeat was not pleasant, but he knew how to weigh the pros and cons best. If he wanted to make things unhappy just because of the past, why bother? Even if Shen Qing's feelings for him were not what he thought, didn't they have feelings for each other? Wasn't the relationship over the years a feeling? It was good like this now.
He has lived in harmony with Shen Qing for so many years. The more he gets along with her, the less he regrets his decision. He also thinks it would be fine even if it continues like this. He is willing to give her the best and he truly favors Xiaoliu. He would be happy with Shen Qing's words, just like when she fiercely forbade him to participate in the talent show, but now when she said this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't believe it.
Xuanyuan Ling didn't expect Shen Qing to say such a thing.
These words did not sound like something Shen Qing would say. She seemed to be openly asking for the position of Crown Prince. Although Xuanyuan Ling knew that it was impossible for her not to think about it, but saying it out loud was different from everyone knowing it. It was impossible for her not to know that these words could not be said. She always had her own bottom line.
But she still said it.
Xuanyuan Ling was sure that she was pretending at first and didn't like him that much at all, but now he suddenly realized that it was not the case. Chen Qing had finally let down her guard towards him, and she was willing to talk about such things after all. His heart was beating fast for a moment, he grabbed her shoulders and stared at her tightly, and suddenly wanted to ask, how sincere are you to me?
But he couldn't say it, really, at this moment, he thought of countless things in his mind, he wanted to ask, but Shen Qing said, he knew that he might not believe it completely, he would be suspicious, even if she said it sincerely, would he not be suspicious? He would... if he realized it at the beginning, he would be suspicious, it would be better not to ask...
Xuanyuan Ling's mind went through several ups and downs, his heartbeat went from rapid to gradually stable. Even if he didn't ask, she could say this, which made him feel comfortable. In the end, he just hugged Shen Qing again: "I will naturally train our Xiaoliu well, don't worry."
Chen Qing felt a little sad when she heard his last sentence, "Don't worry," and she couldn't help but hugged him tightly.
Xuanyuan Ling noticed that she was hugging him tightly, so he also hugged her tightly.
The two of them cuddled together for a long time, not affectionately nor ambiguously, they just hugged each other like a drowning person hugging a piece of driftwood. They hugged each other tightly like this for a long time, until someone came close to them and then kissed, and everything that followed seemed to be a natural thing.
They were extremely familiar with each other, but perhaps due to the influence of her emotions, Shen Qing actually shed tears this time. She shed tears for no reason. Xuanyuan Ling subconsciously stopped her movements, but was held tightly by Shen Qing.
Not a rejection.
Xuanyuan Ling saw her crying and hugging him tightly, his heart beating so fast that he could only kiss her and shout, "Don't cry, don't cry."
The words "come and go" were repeated on her lips, but Shen Qing couldn't stop crying. Until they stopped, both of them could only hear their own violent heartbeats and breathing. Xuanyuan Ling sighed at the tears on Shen Qing's face. She was so delicate, and the tears on her face made people feel distressed: "How did I offend you?"
"You confessed." Shen Qing accused him.
What else could Xuanyuan Ling do? He coaxed her: "Okay, it's my fault, don't be angry, I'll help you bathe."
I don't know what to do. I didn't say that before. Isn't it good? But since you are angry, I will just coax you.
Seeing his appearance, Shen Qing pursed her lips and said, “I’ll stop taking the medicine.”
