“………”Ye Rong was full of doubts. Why did the Fuxi royal family make the statue look like a tail?
Ye Rong did not forget where she was, and without showing any extra expression on her face, she took the three incense sticks handed to her by the female official, and then inserted the incense into the incense burner after a while.
At the same time, Ye Rong discovered that no one showed any strange expression because the statue looked similar to Wei Yan, as if this was normal, and Wei Yan seemed to be unaware of the statue the whole time.
After the incense burning ceremony, Ye Rong and Wei Yan were arranged to wait in the lounge.
After sitting down, Wei Yan waved his hand to let the maid go out, and he sat there drinking tea with a normal expression.
Ye Rong accompanied her quietly. There were some things she wanted to ask, but the atmosphere at the moment made it impossible for Ye Rong to ask. Although Wei Yan looked normal, Ye Rong felt that Wei Yan looked a little strange.
He took a sip of tea with an indifferent expression. He didn't expect that after 11 years, he would return to that place again.
To these people, the death of his younger sister Wei Yan was like the death of a house sparrow, dead and gone, but he would always remember his sister's desperate cry, watching her painful death with his own eyes, and his own powerlessness and weakness at the time, as well as the ugly and greedy faces of his father and clansmen.
His sister was a sacrifice, a pure and holy sacrifice, a sacrifice that had been destined to be hers from the moment she was born.
That was a living person, his own sister who had grown up with him, but they treated her like an animal that could be slaughtered at will.
He hated his own powerlessness in his youth and hated the greed and ruthlessness of his tribe and his father.
Why did he agree to let his sister accompany him to Fuxi? If he had not allowed his sister to come with him, would such a thing not have happened? No, his father and the tribe would still offer his sister as a sacrifice.
But even though he knew it rationally, he couldn't forgive himself.
“………” He remembers every face and every name, and he will slowly settle the account.
For example, the members of the Wei clan were no different from the livestock he raised and could be slaughtered at any time, but supporting the royal family was obviously more troublesome and would require him to put in more effort.
Even though Fuxi is just a small country, it is still a country after all. He has been planning for so many years and has laid a huge net, just waiting for the right time to reap these people.
He won't let any of those people go.
He lived as a sister to remind them what he had done, to let them know that he had never forgotten it. But in the eyes of the proud Fuxi royal family, he was living as a woman because he was afraid of the trauma left by the past, and he used the identity of his sister out of extreme self-blame and guilt, pretending that his sister was still alive.
Of course, this is also because the tail deliberately created such an illusion for them.
After all, it’s not time to harvest yet.
Wei Yan gently stroked the rim of the cup. The more his emotions fluctuated, the calmer his expression became.
When the warm fragrance approached, Wei Yan came back to his senses. It was the girl who walked up to him and hugged him gently. His nostrils were filled with the warm fragrance of the girl's body temperature.
It was so gentle and warm. Wei Yan sighed and put his arm around her waist, his restless heart gradually calming down.
The girl said nothing. She didn't ask him what was wrong, nor did she ask about the statue that looked like him in the temple. She simply noticed that he was abnormal at the moment and chose to comfort him in this way.
"…" Wei Yan's slightly sharp eyes became a little softer, and he gently patted the girl's back, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
When Ye Rong heard this, she looked into Wei Yan's beautiful phoenix eyes, and the sharp feeling she had originally felt was replaced by tenderness. Ye Rong smiled, "Yeah."
Ye Rong thought that this time when she came to the Fuxi Palace, she would not only not be able to meet the ambassador of the Yu Kingdom to Fuxi, but she would not even meet other guests.
During the dinner, Ye Rong finally met other guests.
However, Ye Rong and Wei Yan did not stay for long as they were called away by the lady-in-waiting of the queen for a talk.
The queen was very friendly and the conversation was casual, all about trivial matters. In order for Ye Rong to understand, a simultaneous interpreter was arranged behind Ye Rong.
After the conversation, it was already late, and the queen said, "Why don't you stay overnight?" Then the queen looked at Wei Yan and said to him, "Your Majesty said that you are the head of the Ruwei clan after all, and it has been a long time since you came to the palace."
Facing the queen's probing, Wei Yan remained calm and nodded slightly: "Thank you, Your Majesty and the Queen, for your concern. Sorry to bother you."
So Ye Rong and Wei Yan stayed in the palace for one night.
The driver and bodyguard who were waiting outside the palace went back after receiving the news, preparing to pick people up the next day.
At night, Ye Rong and Wei Yan stayed in the palace.
This is a palace in the truest sense of the word.
The furnishings in the palace were extremely luxurious, and the air was filled with high-quality spices, but none of them smelled as good as the perfume on Wei Yan.
Also, Ye Rong couldn't sleep because of the statue that looked like Wei Yan that she saw at the sacrificial place in Tianli.
I have to tell everyone in the System Task Special Office about this matter after I leave here. It's not that Ye Rong doesn't want to contact everyone in the System Task Special Office now, but she is afraid that it is not safe and that the messages she sends out may be intercepted by others.
Being in a foreign country, Ye Rong had to be more careful regarding the existence of the 㳔 system.
"Can't you sleep?"
"Yeah." Ye Rong responded softly, and moved sideways to Wei Yan. Seeing that she was not asleep either, she moved even closer.
Wei Yan also turned sideways and patted her back gently: "Go to sleep, we will be back tomorrow."
"Yeah." Ye Rong nodded and rubbed his head in her arms.
"………" Wei Yan didn't feel anything at first, but soon he raised his hand to her shoulder, breathing unsteadily: "It's hot, Rongrong, you're too close."
"Well." Ye Rong obediently stepped back a little, but still held her arm, "How about that hand?"
Wei Yan slowed down: "Yeah."
After talking to Wei Yan for a while, Ye Rong felt much more at ease, and soon fell asleep.
Listening to the even breathing sound beside him, Wei Yan's body was still a little stiff. It was not the first time he slept with a girl, but it was the first time he reacted to her proximity.
Wei Yan sighed impatiently. He had never thought that the situation would turn out like this from the beginning.
At least, he never thought that he would have any inappropriate thoughts about her.
Wei Yan knew that the path he was taking had no future and could even easily lead to his death. He had anticipated all this, so he never thought of dragging Rongrong into this dead end.
Wei Yan closed his eyes and tried to calm the strange throbbing in his body. When he finally calmed down, he fell asleep listening to the even breathing beside him.
the next day.
Ye Rong woke up by herself in her sleep, and when she woke up, Wei Yan was no longer in the bed.
Ye Rong had long been accustomed to Wei Yan's daily routine.
After washing up, she went to the outer room to watch the tail.
After the two had breakfast together, they went to say goodbye to the queen when they saw that it was almost time.
It just so happened that the third prince, Kapa, was also there.
When they were leaving, Capa came to see them off.
When leaving the palace in Prince Kappa's special car, Wei Yan's driver and bodyguard did not show up as promised.
Ye Rong just thought that he was delayed on the road and didn't take it too seriously.
When I was about to get off the car, I received a call.
At the same time, the third prince Kapa also received news from his close confidants.
"I just heard that your driver was hit by another truck on the way here. He lost consciousness and has been sent to the hospital." Capa said, "Why don't I just take you two back? I have to go out for a while anyway."
With that, Kapa directly told his driver, "Let's go to Bakun first."
"yes."
Wei Yan glanced at Kapa beside him and said, "Thank you, Third Prince."
Capa corrected him: "I've told you so many times, just call me by my first name."
Wei Yan smiled and didn't respond.
When he was leaving the last door, the third prince Kapa was stopped by the second prince Kasa. Kasa frowned after seeing the tail of the people in the car and said, "Why do you have to make a trip when you can just ask the driver to take them back? I have to wait for you for a long time?"
"………" Kapa had no choice but to get off the car with his second brother, and then turned around and said to Wei Yan and Ye Rong: "Be careful on the road, I won't see you off."
Wei Yan glanced at the driver and the security personnel who were originally responsible for protecting the Third Prince in the car, and nodded slightly: "Thank you very much, Third Prince."
at the same time.
On a major traffic artery in the south, there were no fatalities at the scene of the accident, but drivers on both sides were injured.
The member of the field team who was hired as the tail's bodyguard was badly injured, with a broken shoulder, but it did not affect his movements. Out of professional instinct, he quickly realized the abnormality when he checked.
This accident was somewhat deliberate, and he immediately concealed himself from the crowd and contacted the headquarters.
Please confirm from the headquarters soon.
"The star domain radar shows that Ye Rong and Wei Yan are currently riding in the special car of the third prince Kapa back to Bakun. They will enter the Bakun Bay Bridge in one minute... Four colleagues from the field team are driving 200 meters away and secretly following them for protection..."
At the same time, Bakun Bay Bridge.
The Bakun Bay Bridge connects the main city of Lelong with the Bakun District. It is 810 meters long and is an important route for port logistics transportation.
Ye Rong is already very familiar with this bridge. He has to cross it almost every time when he goes out. There is the sea under the bridge, and the scenery along the way is also very nice, with blue sea and clear sky.
Ye Rong was looking at the sea outside the car window, but at this moment, the car suddenly accelerated without any warning. In an instant, Ye Rong became alert and subconsciously protected the rear end beside him. Then there was a violent collision. With a loud "bang", the car hit the guardrail beside the bridge.
The front of the car was severely deformed, the driver died on the spot, and the security guard in the car also suffered a head injury and lost consciousness.
Before Ye Rong could react to the impact, an explosion ensued. It was definitely not an explosion of the car, because the bridge was broken in the middle.
The Tianshuibi wrapped around her arm was shattered the moment the car hit the guardrail. The explosion made Ye Rong feel pain in her internal organs, and her temples were throbbing and black. When she regained consciousness, she found that she and Wei Yan were falling into the sea together with the car.
The sea water was about to submerge the car, and the last bit of clarity left in Ye Rong made her feel confused about the matter.
What's going on? This shouldn't happen. It's impossible for Wei Yan to be in danger of life-threatening danger, so how could an explosion of this magnitude occur?
In such an explosion, Wei Yan must be seriously injured, or even dead... At this moment, Ye Rong didn't know where she was hurting. Her head was splitting, her skin felt like it was burned by fire, and her ears couldn't hear any sound, as if she suddenly came to a silent world. She knew that she couldn't hear anything because of the explosion just now, but she couldn't care about it at this moment. After completely sinking into the sea, Ye Rong held Wei Yan, who was seriously injured. The car door had been deformed by the impact and couldn't be pushed open. She could only keep sinking in the sea. Ye Rong's consciousness was drowsy, and she instinctively called the system in her mind: [... System, I want to redeem...]
Ye Rong lost consciousness before she could finish her words. Blood flowed from her ears and she fainted in the sea water.
After she lost consciousness, Ye Rong did not let go of Wei Yan in his arms, and still held her in his arms in a protective manner, with his hands still covering her ears as he did just before the explosion.
Wei Yan's spine was broken due to the impact just now, and his whole body was unable to move. The subsequent explosion caused extensive burns on his skin. If Rong Rong hadn't protected him in the end, he might have died by now.
He was never afraid of death, but it had to be a death of his own choosing, not a death arranged by others.
Rongrong...should not have suffered such a disaster. Wei Yan looked at the unconscious girl in front of her who was still holding her in her arms. She seemed to have no hope at all.
Everyone he cherished in this room was snatched away from him.
My younger sister Wei Yan is like this, and so is Rong Rong.
The suffocation in the sea water and the severe pain in his body did not make him lose consciousness. He stretched out his bloody arms and gently held the girl in his arms. The dull pain from the depths of his soul made his expression twist uncontrollably.
His sister's death made him feel remorseful and blame himself. He could not forgive himself for being weak and powerless back then. He walked day and night step by step, just to make those people pay with blood.
But Rongrong's death made him feel like his soul was being burned.
He once regretted that he was not the woman she expected him to be, so he could not respond to her feelings, and eventually he and she would drift apart.
But he never thought that Bei Rongrong would die protecting him, and he never thought that Bei Rongrong would leave him in this way.
He hasn't told her yet that he actually likes her; he hasn't told her yet that he is actually a man.
It's a pity that he could never tell her this.
She will never know.
Anger and hatred swept over him like a huge wave and swallowed him directly. It seemed that everything he cherished would be taken away unreasonably in the end.
He wanted her to break into pieces.
“………”Wei Yan’s eyes were red.
When he was on the verge of death, Wei Yan was filled with tremendous hatred in his heart, which distorted his emotions and soul.
