My sister really likes you, but you have never been moved by her and even avoided her, just because you have a ridiculous childhood sweetheart and always reject her with the excuse of a fiancée you have never met.
"I originally thought that no girl from a good family would marry you, but your so-called fiancée actually came all the way to the capital to be with you.
I was initially curious about how this brave girl could be, knowing your situation, yet still traveling so far to find you, just to fulfill a supposed childhood engagement. However, when I first met her, I was disappointed. She didn't even dare to look up at me, like a timid and weak little girl. I think she came to you out of necessity, not with any sincerity at all.
"But I never thought that she was only timid and weak when she was with me. She was never like this with you. She could even smile like a flower to others, but she would never look me in the eye."
"But why? I clearly didn't do anything to her. Did you say anything to her? That's why she's avoiding me."
The young man in armor, whose originally sinister and handsome face now revealed an expression of confusion.
Gao Rui, who was about to give orders, was stunned when he heard these words and looked at him in disbelief.
At this time, Yun Xuan was still asking Jiang Shi why his wife never looked him in the eye?
I have never heard of any contact between Yu Tanqi and Yun Xuan before.
Yu Tanqi rarely leaves the Wu'an Marquis Mansion, and the number of times she meets Yun Xuan is even fewer. Is it possible that Yun Xuan has any feelings for her?
Gao Rui couldn't understand.
Maybe that's how human emotions are.
Jiang Shi shook his head and said softly, "I never said anything bad about you to her."
He also disdains to belittle other men in front of Yu Tanqi.
He would just quietly keep these men who coveted her away from her sight, so that they would never be able to get close to her again.
Just like Chi Li.
Fortunately, although Chi Li was bewitched by Yun Xuan, Yun Xuan did not let Chi Li participate in his rebellion plan, otherwise Chi Li would have been doomed to death.
At this moment, the rebels had all been captured by the guards brought by Gao Rui.
There was no one around Yun Xuan, and his most capable subordinate Hou Lang had fallen to the ground and was unable to get up.
Jiang Shi and Gao Rui stood still, and the soldiers behind them did not dare to act rashly. They silently watched the rebel leader who was now alone.
Yun Xuan was silent for a long time, staring blankly at the dagger in his hand.
After a while, he spoke again in a low voice.
"I couldn't figure it out, so I stopped her and asked her many times, but she never told me the real reason. Perhaps she only had eyes for you, or perhaps she saw the despicableness in my heart and didn't want to look at me any more."
"Jiang Shi, I never thought that one day I would envy you. Envy that you have someone who always firmly believes in you and stays by your side. Even if you are hunted, slandered, ridiculed and reviled, she still chooses to stand by your side, using her slender and fragile body to protect you without hesitation."
"I originally wanted to kill her."
But when the dagger was about to touch her neck, his eyes suddenly recalled the first time they met, when the girl timidly lowered her head, revealing a section of her snow-white, slender neck.
So soft, so fragile, yet so beautiful.
It seemed as if it would break with the slightest force, revealing scarlet blood.
He finally relented.
Let her go.
Even though she couldn't possibly know his feelings.
"For the sake of me not hurting her, Jiang Shi, can you promise me not to hurt Yun Shu? Yun Shu has never participated in the rebellion from beginning to end, and she even helped you. Can you spare her life?"
Yun Xuan raised his eyes to look at Jiang Shi, and the sinister look on his face faded away. At this moment, he was just like an ordinary brother who loved his sister. Before he fell, he made the final plans for his only relative.
When he sent Yunxuan away from the capital, he had already made plans for the rebellion to fail. He could die, but he hoped that his only sister could survive.
Jiang Shi nodded: "I will spare Yun Shu's life, but she can't return to the capital in the future, nor can she get married and have children."
Otherwise, the Gao family would not have let Yun Shu live to prevent another Yun Xuan from appearing.
Yun Xuan said softly, "As long as Yun Shu is alive, that's all that matters."
It’s better not to have children or descendants, otherwise I would be born with the family hatred and resentment like him, and life would be too tiring and painful.
He held the dagger, the sharp blade against his throat.
Yun Xuan's lips moved slightly and he looked somewhere in front of him, as if he wanted to say something, but the blade was too sharp and quickly cut his throat.
Bright red blood splattered out, staining the dagger red.
The young man's tall body fell down with a loud bang.
The last thing he saw was the endless blue sky and white clouds. The bright midday sun stung his eyes so much that he slowly closed them.
The words he never said to her were buried in his heart forever as he closed his eyes.
Just like his secrets that no one had ever known.
Sorry, Yu Tanqi.
