That silly girl must be very happy that so many people helped her celebrate her birthday this year.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and countless thoughts of wanting to see her emerged in his mind.
But the longing that arose in my heart was forcibly suppressed.
Because he saw the sachet hanging on the head of the bed.
That was the only gift Shi Ran gave him before he died.
He took off the sachet, held it in his hand, and gently pressed his forehead against it. Tears fell, and he whispered, "I'm sorry."
He hung the sachet at the head of his bed so that he could see it every day, and then cycle between remembering her beauty and regretting her death, day after day.
He could only reflect in this almost pathological way on why he had failed to protect her well and miss the person who had been gone for more than three years.
That’s right, he likes Shi Ran.
He fell in love with her from the first time he saw her and the first time she said to him.
Yu Seung-ho felt that Shi Ran was an innocent, cute, pure and innocent girl.
He yearned for this kind of beauty, and he wanted to treasure it carefully.
This idea did not change at all from the more than ten years before Shi Ran's death to the three years after her death.
And now, or perhaps not now, but rather a subtle influence that had gradually occurred at some point in time, Yu Seung-ho had the idea of falling in love with another girl. This idea was growing stronger day by day, making him more and more uneasy.
Why do you feel uneasy?
Because it means that he has to forget Shi Ran and give the place in his heart that originally belonged to Shi Ran to another girl.
He had treated that girl like a sister for many years.
Yoo Seung-ho was in pain because he felt that this was not right.
“Squeak—”
Yu Qinglan carefully pushed open the door and saw her brother sitting on the edge of the bed with an expressionless face.
He rarely showed such an expression. Every time he looked solemn and expressionless, there must be something on his mind. As his sister, she understood it best.
"What's wrong with you?" She walked over and said in a gentle tone, "Tell me."
"It's okay." Yu Seung-ho instinctively avoided it. He didn't want to talk about this, not to anyone.
But Yu Qinglan glanced at the sachet in his hand. She knew that it was the sachet given by Shi Ran.
Then everything became clear. Her brother really liked Shi Ran, but he was already dead and could not be resurrected.
No matter how much you reminisce, it will never come back.
She tried to change the subject: "It's Princess Minzhi's birthday tonight, are you going?"
"I..." Yu Seung-ho had been struggling for a long time and had been preparing for this day for a long time.
In the past, he always spent every birthday with Helan Minzhi. The gifts were already prepared and placed in the cabinet beside his bed.
"I'd better not go."
It's better not to go. After all, there are so many people celebrating her birthday this year, so she shouldn't need one. Let him spend more time with Shi Ran.
His gaze was unfocused, so Yu Qinglan asked, "Why aren't you going this year? Aren't you always the most enthusiastic every year?"
Yu Qinglan guessed that his decision to leave was related to the sachet in his hand. She hoped her brother would move on, find new people, get along with new people, instead of living in pain and regret every day and spending his whole life like this.
"Aren't you the one going this year?" Yu Seung-ho pretended to be relaxed. "You're enough for the Grand Tutor's Mansion. The Queen Mother doesn't really want to see me anyway."
"But Princess Minzhi wants to see you." Yu Qinglan saw through everything. She knew very well the relationship and feelings between Helan Minzhi and Yu Chenghao. Her brother was a little dull about her feelings, or perhaps he was still stuck in his previous emotions.
Yu Chenghao was stunned. Helan Minzhi wanted to see him? Was it the kind of desire he wanted to see his brother, or was it...
"Will Minzhi want to see me?" Yu Seung-ho murmured.
"I can see that Minzhi really wants to see you."
This is an affirmative sentence.
"Ah Hao," Yu Qinglan said gently, "You have to look forward."
He knew to look forward, but he was also reluctant to abandon the things he had cherished for so long.
***
Prime Minister's Mansion.
Tang Ruozhi hadn't left the house for several days, and Jin Wade often came to see her, secretly, of course.
If he acted brazenly, Prime Minister Tang would hit him with a club and he might even get hurt.
Jin Wade pretended to be a waiter delivering food at Zuixianlou. When he walked into Tang Ruozhi's room, she was trying on clothes.
The relationship between the two of them has eased a lot. Ever since Jin Wade helped Tang Ruozhi hide it from Mrs. Tang and was beaten with those sticks, their feelings quickly "heated up".
Seeing that the person coming was Jin Wade, Tang Ruozhi showed him the red wide-sleeved fairy dress she had just changed into.
Her tone was filled with excitement that was hard to conceal: "Brother Jin, look, look at me! Am I pretty?"
"It looks good..." Jin Wade didn't dare to look at her directly, and nodded dully.
In Tang Ruozhi's eyes, it seemed a bit perfunctory. She was unhappy and said, "Look at me, am I really good-looking? Tell me the truth."
Jin Wade was forced to look directly at her, his face flushed all the way to his ears, and he still stammered: "Good, good, good, it looks good."
"Puchi," Tang Ruozhi was amused by him. This man was indeed naive and cute.
"Put it down quickly, isn't it heavy?"
Jin Xiwen hadn't come to see her these days, and Mrs. Tang hadn't been too concerned about her. Her injuries had healed, and Jin Wade came to play with her every day, as if she were the carefree rich girl again.
