Jin Kong said, "Who else could it be? It's obvious that he's your new love. Did the painting seller fall out of favor last time? Have you found another one?"
Lu Ren: ...
He held Jiyue's hand tightly.
Wen Yu was silent for a moment, and suddenly burst out laughing. What a guy, he specifically picked on Lu Ren's sore spots to make fun of them.
Sure enough, the next second, the knife flashed, and Jin Kong flew out again, letting out a scream.
Wen Yu took a closer look and was stunned.
I saw a big cross on Jin Kong's mouth caused by the tip of the knife, and he was bleeding profusely.
Even his eyes were swollen from the back of the knife, and became red and swollen as if a line was left on them.
Lu Ren said in a cold tone: "Watch your mouth."
Wen Yu: ...
Who understands? A fork in the mouth is really funny!
"I didn't realize, Lu Ren, that you're so mean. Now, he won't dare to go out for the whole month, right?"
Wen Yu hugged her arms, her eyes curved as she asked knowingly, "But why are you so angry?"
Hearing this, Lu Ren looked at Wen Yu's smiling face and pulled the corners of his lips in self-mockery: "It turns out that everyone knows about the princess's new and old loves, only I don't know."
After Lu Ren finished speaking, he didn't need Wen Yu's answer and turned to walk into the box.
Wen Yu raised her eyebrows and followed.
Lu Ren paused for a moment, then walked straight to the window and said in a cold tone, "What is the matter with you, Princess, following me in?"
Wen Yu didn't say anything.
Lu Ren didn't hear her response. After three seconds of silence, he turned around.
"What's up Princess?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Ren's eyes fell on Wen Yu's waist.
Before, he had been deliberately avoiding Wen Yu and not looking at her. It was not until this moment that he discovered that Wen Yu was wearing the ancestral jade pendant he had given her around her waist.
Lu Ren's fingertips trembled, but he pretended to be calm and asked, "Why is the princess wearing this jade pendant?"
Wen Yu looked down and smiled, "You mean this? Because I like it, can't I wear it?"
Lu Ren was silent.
"You gave it to me so I could wear it, didn't you?" Wen Yu asked doubtfully, "Do you want to take the jade pendant back?"
Wen Yu smiled and said, "But it's not impossible for you to go back if you want."
She stretched out her palm in front of Lu Ren and looked at him: "Then you have to give my hair back to me."
Lu Ren stiffened almost imperceptibly when he heard that.
His voice was a little hoarse: "I have lost it."
Wen Yu blinked: "Are you so heartless?"
Hearing the word "heartless", Lu Ren raised his eyes, with hurt hidden in his eyes: "Is there any love between the princess and me? If not, how can there be any heartless talk?"
Wen Yu sighed and said, "I remember I said it many times, I like you very much, how can I not have feelings for you?"
"Princess, you lied to me."
"What did I lie to you about?"
"You said you were attracted to me... you were all lying to me."
When Lu Ren said this, his voice was shaking slightly uncontrollably.
"Silly boy, how could I lie to you? I never thought of lying to you, because I can lie to you for a while but not forever. Besides, I never hide my attention to other men in front of you."
Lu Ren: ...
Wen Yu took two steps forward, touched Lu Ren's cheek, and looked at him seriously, "I said it last time, I like you, it's true, you are the man I fell in love with at first sight, but it's not just me who likes you, it's also true."
"You can accept that, right?"
Lu Ren was silent for a moment, then slowly shook his head: "No, I cannot accept this."
"If you love someone, how can you be willing to share it with others? It's hard to do that with an object, let alone a person you love? If you can accept that, is it still love?"
Wen Yu pondered for a moment and said, "What you said makes sense, but maybe you should think about it from a different angle."
"What does the princess want to say?"
“When you really love someone, but you are destined not to have them alone, then you will choose to give up because you can’t accept it.”
"But have you ever thought that maybe someone's love can break through this taboo? It's enough to be with the one they love, because they know clearly that they will only love her and only her, and love her so much that they are willing to become one of the many just to be with the one they love."
Wen Yu smiled and said, "So, are you willing to be one?"
Lu Ren's eyes trembled, but his tone was firm: "I don't want to, I don't want to be one of the many, I just want to be the princess's only one."
"Princess, can't you just like me?"
"I have already answered this question. No." Wen Yu kissed his lips gently, "But I respect your choice."
Wen Yu said as she slid her hand all the way down to his chest, touched inside, and then in an instant pulled out a familiar brocade bag.
"Isn't it lost?" Wen Yu picked up the brocade bag and shook it, "Then what is this?"
Lu Ren: ...
"Please return the princess to me."
Wen Yu raised her eyebrows: "What do you mean by return it to you? This is originally mine. Since you don't want to be my man, it's not appropriate for you to keep this hair. After all, black hair is given to lovers."
Upon hearing this, Lu Ren pursed his lips and his eyes turned red, not knowing whether he was angry or aggrieved.
"Alright, alright, I'm just kidding. If you want it, I'll give it back to you."
But Lu Ren said, "Princess, you are right. This is originally yours. It should not be kept here by me, nor is it suitable for me."
"You don't want it?" Wen Yu said with a smile, "Forget it, I'll throw it away."
Wen Yu said this and threw it out of the window without any hesitation.
Almost in an instant, a shadow passed in front of Wen Yu, Lu Ren jumped out of the window, grabbed the brocade bag in the air, and then spun steadily to the ground.
After catching it, he breathed a sigh of relief, looked up at the second floor, and met the gaze of Wen Yu who was leaning lazily against the window.
She raised her lips slightly, her eyes a little nonchalant, yet it seemed as if she saw through him.
Lu Ren's heart was trembling, and he couldn't help but slowly tighten the brocade bag in his hand. But he was afraid of damaging the things inside, so he gradually loosened his grip.
What he is doing...
He spread out his palms and stared at the brocade bag in his hands.
Why did he search through the snow in the yard to find it even though he had made up his mind to throw it away?
Why did I subconsciously hold on to it even though I clearly decided not to have it anymore?
