Li Han has already laid it all out with Du Jian. He has said everything he should and shouldn't say. All this is not only for Gui Yue but also for Du Jian. He cannot continue to indulge in an emotion that can never be achieved.
But Du Jian didn't seem to listen to what Li Han said, nor did he understand the meaning behind her words. He walked up and held Li Han's hand.
"Can we really not go back? Can't you think about it again? I..." Du Jian's lips were not only trembling when he spoke, but even his hands could not stop shaking.
Du Jian tried hard to control this strange feeling, but the more he tried, the more violently he trembled. He felt an inexplicable fear in his heart, and a voice in his mind kept shouting.
The voice seemed to be saying that if he didn't catch Li Han now, he might not have another chance in the future.
This voice kept echoing in Du Jian's mind, and Du Jian seemed to believe it. He grabbed Li Han's hand and suddenly exerted force, holding it tightly.
Li Han felt the trembling of Du Jian's hand, and also felt that the strength of his grip on her hand was getting stronger, but Li Han didn't care, and she didn't want to pay any more attention to her.
Because Li Han knew that if he didn't make things clear this time and straighten out the relationship, there would be deeper misunderstandings in the future, which would lead to endless troubles.
Li Han fiercely shook off Du Jian's hand that was grabbing his arm and said coldly, "That's enough. I think I've made it clear enough. We are all smart people. There's no need for me to explain it again."
Li Han was so resolute that Du Jian felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. At this time, Gui Yue came over.
Gui Yue saw Du Jian pulling Li Han from a distance, and the atmosphere between the two was not right. Based on woman's intuition and Du Jian's relationship with Li Han, Gui Yue also knew what happened between them.
Gui Yue nodded to Li Han as a greeting, then said to Du Jian, "Husband, we should go back."
Li Han saw Gui Yue coming, afraid that she would misunderstand, so he walked aside and said, "Du Jian, your wife is here, go back with her!"
"Li Han, I..."
Just as Du Jian was about to speak, Gui Yue interrupted him: "Husband, it's getting late. You've stayed out long enough. We should go back home."
Du Jian lowered his head in disappointment, with unspeakable pain in his heart, and then he had to follow Gui Yue.
Before, Prince An said that he wanted to invite Hua Yunyun to go boating on the lake. As expected, he went right away and asked the people in the mansion to prepare the carriage, and the two of them set off immediately.
Hua Yunyun and An Shizi arrived at the lake cruise site and found that there was no one around and it was filled with guards, as if it had been arranged in advance.
"Yun'er, this season is perfect for boating on the lake. It's so relaxing to sip tea and chat in the breeze!"
As Prince An was speaking, a huge, luxuriously decorated ship swam over. Hua Yunyun was also very surprised when she saw it: "Your Highness, what is this ship?"
Prince An boasted, "Yun'er, this is my favorite boat for boat trips around the lake. I prepared it especially for you. I hope you like it."
From the time Hua Yunyun agreed to go boating to the time they arrived at the boating location, it was only an hour or two. Prince An's grand ceremony seemed to have been carefully prepared long ago, which surprised Hua Yunyun.
In fact, from the moment Hua Yunyun came, Prince An had already sent people to make preparations. It can be said that all of this was specially prepared for Hua Yunyun, just to please Hua Yunyun. After all, this was the first woman who made her heart beat, so she naturally could not be careless.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your trouble. I like it very much." Hua Yunyun looked at Prince An with admiration.
In fact, Hua Yunyun didn't like such fancy things. Things that look good on the outside but are rotten on the inside are useless. However, in order to please An Shizi, Hua Yunyun pretended to be like this. Everything she did was just to win over An Shizi.
When Prince An saw Hua Yunyun, he was very happy and his mood also improved. After the boat docked, he helped Hua Yunyun into the boat.
An Shizi said a little embarrassedly: "I don't know what you like, so I arranged it according to my preferences. As long as you like it, it's fine!"
"Your Highness the Crown Prince has very good taste, and I like it too!" Hua Yunyun looked around at the decorations in the boat and smiled at Prince An.
The interior decoration of the ship is also extremely luxurious, with tables and chairs made of golden nanmu wood, curtains and blankets brought into the palace from the Western Regions, and even the tea sets and decorations used are top-grade tributes and are very valuable.
Seeing that An Shizi cared so much about her, Hua Yunyun felt very proud. This meant that her efforts in the past two days were not in vain, and she had won An Shizi over.
"Since we are here for a boat tour, it seems like something is missing without music to accompany us. It's a beautiful day, and I see there is a piano here. How about I play a song for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to liven up the atmosphere?" Hua Yunyun said.
"You also know music?" An Shizi was a little surprised and a little delighted.
"I know a little bit. If I don't play well, I hope Your Highness will not mind!" Hua Yunyun walked to the piano, sat upright and played the piano.
Prince An also sat down, ready to enjoy the music Hua Yunyun would play for him next.
"A song of phoenix seeking phoenix, dedicated to His Highness."
As soon as Hua Yunyun finished speaking, her fingertips began to wander over the piano. The sound of the piano was like flowing water in the mountains. Every note seemed to jump into An Shizi's heart, making him applaud uncontrollably.
"Very good, very good!" Prince An praised endlessly and closed his eyes: "The phoenix is flying high in the sky, and the four seas are seeking the phoenix. What a good song of phoenix seeking the phoenix!" Prince An was very satisfied with Hua Yunyun's performance, and the look he gave Li Han was a little gentler than before.
"Yun'er is sorry for the performance. I'm very happy that His Highness the Crown Prince can understand the words in my piano music. It's like Boya and Ziqi, high mountains and flowing water. Your Highness the Crown Prince is truly Yun'er's soulmate." Hua Yunyun also said to Prince An with a very happy look.
"Yes, it is difficult to find a soulmate. Even if you look for him a thousand times, he is right in front of you. I am very happy too." Prince An nodded and said.
Seeing that the pleasantries were almost over, Hua Yunyun felt that the time had come and it was time to complete the purpose of this trip.
Hua Yunyun stood up and walked to Prince An and bowed, "Your Highness, Yun'er has a request that I would like to make. I wonder if Your Highness can agree to it?"
Prince An waved his hand, very casually: "Just tell me, as long as I can help you, just ask."
"I wonder if I can take Yun'er with me on the hunting trip in a few days. I've only seen hunting scenes in books before, and I was curious, but I never had the chance. I heard there's a hunting trip this time, and I also want to go and take a look." Hua Yunyun looked at An Shizi with expectant eyes.
Prince An smiled and said, "I thought it was something else. This is simple. Just follow me when the time comes!"
