"Xue 'er, take your time to choose. I'll be right next door. Call me if you need anything.”In front of a cloth shop full of beautiful fabrics, Yu Qi said to Yi Xue 'er.
"Alright." Yi Xue 'er nodded.
"Yuqi." When Yuqi turned around, she suddenly called out to him.
"Hmm?" Yuqi heard her voice and turned around.
Yi Xue 'er was a little embarrassed and at a loss.
To be honest, she didn't know why she stopped him. She had nothing to say to him!
Oh, right, if there was something that she had been hiding in her heart and had never had the chance to say, it was this sentence.
"Thank you." She thanked him for letting her live peacefully in his house for more than ten days and for his concern for her.
Although it was just a short sentence, Yu Qi smiled. He was looking forward to another three-word sentence, but this was enough.
He smiled at her and went to the shop next door.
Yi Xue 'er watched him leave and then shifted her gaze to the fabric.
The fabric was of such good quality that it looked beautiful.
Her mind was filled with thoughts of choosing a fabric that looked good on Yuqi. He took such good care of her, so making a few clothes for him was the least she could do for him.
When her gaze met a white cloth that was glowing with silver light, many emotions surged into her heart.
The person she had deliberately forgotten became clear in her mind. She thought of him and the torn white robe.
Just as she was feeling pain, a voice appeared and pushed her into the abyss of pain.
"I was wondering who it was. So it's you!"
A chill rose from the depths of Yi Xue 'er's body. She did not want to turn back, but she had to.
Yi Xin's cold eyes were waiting for her.
Seeing Yi Xin, whom she hadn't seen for more than ten days, aside from the desire, hope, nervousness, and excitement, the deepest feeling she had at this moment was surprise.
She was not surprised to meet him in such a place. She was surprised that she had never seen him so thin and haggard.
Could it be that he had not been doing well these past few days? She couldn't help but think so.
She could only think about it because his matter had nothing to do with her anymore. Their master-servant relationship had long ended.
Yi Xin stared at her." You're here alone. Where's that kid?"”
Yi Xue 'er didn't know that Yi Xin was asking the obvious. He happened to pass by and saw the scene of the two silently facing each other.
Not only could he see it clearly, but it also made his blood boil. If it wasn't for the fact that there were other people here, he thought that he might have killed that damned Yuqi!
He was so angry, but Yi Xue 'er only glanced at him indifferently and continued to look at her cloth.
"Xue 'er!" He gritted his teeth and called out to her. Was she deliberately turning a blind eye to him?
Yi Xue 'er looked at him reluctantly." Who are you? I don't think I know you."
Yi Xin gritted his teeth even harder." What? Don't you recognize me?”
Yi Xue 'er looked at him as if he was a stranger. "I don't know you, sir. I'm really sorry!”
"That's great!" Yi Xin laughed instead of getting angry. He walked to her side and lowered his head to whisper in her ear,""You can pretend not to know me, but I'm not as forgetful as you. Let me tell you, if you continue to ignore me like this, I will use any method to make you call me Lord Baylor. Do you want to try?”
Yi Xue 'er's body trembled. At this moment, a trace of fear finally appeared in her eyes.
" You won't do that!" She held her breath as she looked at the demon king in her life.
Yi Xin smiled happily.”
[I don't want to!] Just as Yi Xue 'er was about to shout it out, Yuqi appeared at this moment.
"Xue 'er?" Seeing Yi Xin appear here, Yuqi was indescribably surprised. However, he had no time to care about his own feelings. He was thinking about Xue 'er.
He immediately stepped in between the two of them and pulled Yi Xue 'er, who was trembling all over, behind him to protect her.
"Yo, your protector is here!" Yi Xin looked coldly at the two of them leaning against each other.
"Yi Xin Bei Le, what do you want?”Yuqi looked at him calmly.
Yi Xin curled his lips and smiled. "Hmph, what do you think I'm going to do to this woman? I say, Young Master Yuqi, it's your family's business if you treat this woman as a treasure. I'm just here to take a look at the abandoned slave who was kicked out of the palace by me. You don't have to glare at me with such murderous eyes!”
" Yi Xin, Baylor, Xue 'er is no longer your servant. Please respect her, because…" Yuqi suddenly hugged Yi Xue' er's shoulders. His actions made Yi Xue 'er confused and Yi Xin furious.
"Because Xue 'er is about to become my wife, so please respect my future wife for my sake, okay? Yuqi said loudly to Yi Xin.
Xue 'er was his…future wife? Yi Xin clenched his fists tightly, the veins on his head bulging.
The weather was so cold, but he was sweating all over.
Yi Xue 'er looked at Yi Xin, then at Yuqi. She should have said something, but she didn't.
She didn't want to correct Yuqi's words, even though he didn't agree with her.
It didn't matter if she was or not. In short, she didn't want to stay here. She didn't want to see this person.
Yi Xin took turns to look at them. Suddenly, he burst out laughing.
"Haha, isn't this good news?”He smiled and looked at Yuqi." Don't forget to inform me on the day you get married. No matter what, she was once my person. I can't save this gift."”
Yi Xue 'er's face turned pale when she heard the words' my person'. Yi Xin's words were obviously meant to hurt her.
She thought that she would not feel anything anymore, but she still could not do it. As long as she loved him, she would have feelings for him.
Right before Yi Xin's eyes, Yuqi hugged Yi Xue 'er's shoulder tightly.
"Then I'll thank you, Lord Baylor.”Yu Qi said with a smile.
Yuqi's smile made Yi Xue 'er feel so warm. He let her know that he didn't care about anything Yi Xin said to hurt her.
Yi Xin looked coldly at the two of them, then turned around and left.
Yi Xue 'er's heart suddenly tightened. She greedily and reluctantly looked at Yi Xin's figure that was walking away at an extremely fast speed.
She wanted to look at him again, even if it was the last time…
"Xue 'er."
" Yuqi..." Yuqi's voice made her reluctantly shift her gaze to his face.
Yuqi smiled gently at her,"Let's go home!"”
She smiled back at him, but behind that smile was a deep sorrow. "Alright, let's go home."
Back in the Imperial Residence, Yi Xin, who was in his study, took out everything he could see and smashed them one by one!
His fall was earth-shattering, and none of the servants dared to approach him.
When he was almost done smashing everything in the room, Xueru, who had been informed by the servants, rushed over. When she saw the horrible sight of the study, she could not help but shout,"Big brother, are you crazy? Why are you venting your anger on these things?”
"None of your business!" "What are you doing here?" Yi Xin shouted angrily. Go, I don't need anyone to pay attention to me!”
"If you don't want me to pay attention to you, then I will!”Xue Ru was also angry. She stood in front of him arrogantly.
"What's the use of venting your anger on these things? Even if you destroy our Imperial Residence, Xue 'er will not return!”
Yi Xin glared at her angrily and shouted,"" Don't mention that woman. I get angry when I hear her name. I'm warning you, don't…"
"You don't want it? What do you not want? Don't you want Xue 'er? Why are you still trying to be brave at a time like this? I really can't stand you!"
Xue Ru couldn't stand it. She couldn't stand Yi Xin's two-faced attitude. She couldn't stand Yi Xin's damn, inexplicable pride. She couldn't stand him sending Xue 'er into someone else's arms even though he clearly loved her.
Yi Xin glared at her again. "Don't be so self-righteous. What Xue 'er? I've long forgotten about this person!”
"Really?" Xue Ru was so angry that she wanted to slap him."Xue 'er really loved the wrong person. She has always loved you. She has been careful and has never forgotten her identity. If I had known that you would be so heartless, I would have stopped her from loving you. She loved you so hard, but what did she get?”
"What are you talking about?" Yi Xin sneered."Xue 'er loves me? If she loved me, why would she be so heartless? Two hours ago, she pretended not to know me!”
"You saw Xue 'er? Where is it?" Xue Ru asked Yi Xin anxiously.
"These are not important anymore. She doesn't know me anymore. It's useless to say more." Although Yi Xin was smiling, his smile was self-deprecating and sorrowful.
"Xue 'er doesn't acknowledge you? I don't believe it!" Xue Ru shook her head.
"I heard it with my own ears and saw it with my own eyes. You have no choice but to believe it!”
"I still don't believe it!" Xue Ru held Yi Xin's hand excitedly." Big Brother, I can't take it anymore. I have to say it!"”
She wanted to say how difficult it was for Yi Xue 'er to walk down the path of love because of her inferiority complex towards her looks. He said that in order to not let down her deceased mother, she refused to be his concubine and would rather be his servant girl. She said that she clearly wanted to have him all to herself, but she did not dare to think that she was not worthy.
Xue Ru told him everything she knew. Although it was too late to tell him now, she was afraid that if she did not tell him, her proud brother would never know that there was a woman who loved him so much and suffered so much.
After Yi Xin heard what Xue Ru said, the anger on his face had disappeared. Now, his expression was so calm that it made people feel scared.
" Big Brother…" Xue Ru called him softly, feeling uneasy.
"I never knew." Yi Xin's voice sounded weak. "She never said anything. She would rather I misunderstand her than say anything…"
"How can you teach her how to say it?”Xue Ru whispered. "Not to mention the disparity in status, even the scar on her face is enough to make her lose all her courage. To her, as long as she could be your servant, it would be the greatest happiness in her life. However, you didn't even let her be a servant. She could only give up on you and no longer have any feelings for you.”
Yi Xin's handsome face was twisted. It was obvious that he was in great pain.
Other than pain, there was also self-blame. Why did he ignore Xue 'er's feelings? Why couldn't he sense her uneasy and intense love for him? He only cared about himself and acted according to his own wishes, but he did not know that he had already hurt her badly.
Xue Ru gently placed her hand on the back of Yi Xin's hand, encouraging him with a gentle look. "Big Brother, go and find Xue 'er! I believe that as long as you are willing to face yourself honestly, Xue 'er will forgive you.”
Yi Xin looked at her, moved, but didn't say anything.
Xue Ru nodded vigorously at him. "I really think so. Go, let her know that you love her. Bring her back!”
Yi Xin looked at her and smiled.
"Xueru."
"What is it? Big brother."
He smiled gently. "You're really a good sister."
Xue Ru smiled and pushed him. "Hmph, you only know now! Go, bring my sister-in-law back!”
"No problem!" Yi Xin's loud voice echoed in the room.
"Xue 'er, are you asleep?"
Yi Xue 'er, who was sitting on the bed in a daze, heard Yu Qi's voice and quickly got up to open the door.
Yuqi said apologetically. "I'm sorry to disturb you so late at night.”
"It's alright!" "What's the matter?" Yi Xue 'er asked with a smile.”
"I have a few words to say to you."
" Then..." Yi Xue 'er was about to invite Yu Qi in, but Yu Qi said,""I'm not going in. I'll leave after saying a few words.”
He looked at her deeply." Xue 'er, will you blame me for what I said to Yi Xin and Baylor today?”
"You mean you told him that we were going to get married?”Yi Xue 'er asked faintly.
"Yes!" Yuqi said," Forgive me for blurting it out at that time. Although this is not the truth, it is what I hope. I am not just looking for an excuse to avoid Yi Xin Baylor. I am serious. I hope you can understand this."”
"I understand." Yi Xue 'er said softly. " But I also hope you understand that I'm now…"
"I understand how you feel right now." Yuqi smiled,"I said I would wait for you, and I will wait. I won't force you, I will respect your wishes."”
"Thank you." Yi Xue 'er was really grateful to Yuqi.
Yuqi left after saying these words, and Yi Xue 'er sat back on her bed.
Ever since she met Yi Xin, her mind was filled with his image.
She couldn't help but think of Yi Xin and Yuqi.
Should she pursue the man she couldn't afford to love, or should she give herself to this man who loved her even with her flaws?
She fell into a complicated mood.
She didn't hear anything until she heard someone call her name.
"Xue 'er."
"Ah?" She jumped in fright. Heavens, it was actually him!
When did Yi Xin appear in this room? Why didn't she know about it at all?
"What are you doing here?" She didn't notice Yi Xin's emotional eyes and said defensively,""I already said I don't know you. Why are you still here?”
"You still don't acknowledge me?" Yi Xin couldn't believe his ears.
" I..." Yi Xin's pained voice made her unable to bear it. She closed her eyes and said to him,""Sorry, I really don't know you. Please leave!”
Yi Xin couldn't help but take a step back. Her heartlessness was hurting his heart.
Yes, what he saw now was the heartless Yi Xue 'er. As for the affectionate Yi Xue' er, she had already been killed by him.
"Good!" He decided that since she wanted to be heartless, what else did he have to worry about?
Good? Yi Xue 'er looked at Yi Xin's unfathomable expression and felt uneasy.
"Tomorrow, you will return to Prince Wen's residence!”
"You…"
"This is an order!" Yi Xin's stern tone did not allow for any compromise. "If I don't see you tomorrow night, don't blame me for being ruthless! Everyone related to you, Die 'er, your family, Yuqi and his family, I won't let anyone off!”
Yi Xue 'er's watery eyes widened in panic. "What are you doing?"
"You can imagine it yourself!" Yi Xin said expressionlessly. "Don't say that I didn't warn you. You'd better listen to me obediently. Otherwise, I don't know what I'll do.”
"You won't." Yi Xue 'er couldn't believe that Yi Xin would say these words to her. Why did he say that? Was he willing to commit a crime just to get her to go back?
"Whether I will or not, we will know tomorrow night!”Yi Xin looked at her lovingly and hatefully, then jumped out of the window.
Yi Xue 'er sat weakly on the bed, burying her face in her palms.
It was another cold night. Yi Xue 'er sat in the familiar room, quietly waiting for Yi Xin's arrival.
Yes, she was back! Two hours ago, without letting Yuqi know, she sneaked out and got on the carriage sent by Yi Xin to return to Prince Wen's residence.
As soon as she came out, she saw the guards of Prince Wen's residence waving at her from not far away. Then, she followed him into the carriage.
She didn't know how long the carriage had been waiting for her. The unexpected appearance of the carriage made her feel even more helpless towards Yi Xin.
He had expected that she would not dare to disobey him, so he had sent a carriage to wait for her outside.
Now, under his threat, she had returned to this place.
She really didn't know what to do. If he wanted her to leave, she would leave. Now, he wanted her back. Why? What was he thinking?
As her heart raced, the door was slowly pushed open.
Yi Xin slowly walked up to her.
She looked up at him. To her surprise, his expression was calm.
Didn't he want her back because he was angry that she didn't acknowledge him? Was she wrong?
"You're finally back by my side!" Yi Xin sat down beside her and pressed his hand on her trembling shoulder.
He stared deeply at her uneasy little face. "Did he touch you here?”He pressed her shoulder.
The uneasiness in her heart grew. Before she could say anything, her lips were sealed.
It was his tongue. His tongue slid between her teeth and licked every part of her body crazily.
After a long kiss, he touched her lips that were stained with his saliva. "He shouldn't have touched this place, right?”
Yi Xue 'er shook her head anxiously. "No, I haven't."
Yi Xin knew that she didn't dare to lie to him. "It better not be!"
Otherwise, he would definitely kill Yuqi!
He held Yi Xue 'er's struggling face in his hands. Suddenly, his lips landed on the left side of her face.
Yi Xue 'er was shocked and wanted to dodge, but he hugged her instead.
"No!" Feeling Yi Xin's hot lips pressing against her scar, she had the urge to cry.
Why did he kiss her there? That was the place where she felt the most inferior and wanted to hide her pain the most!
"No!" She struggled hard, but she still could not avoid his kiss.
His gentle kisses kept landing on her scar. "This is a part of you…"
He couldn't hide! Yi Xue 'er gave up struggling.
She did not move and allowed him to take off her clothes, allowing him to hold her in his arms.
" Xue 'er, Xue' er..." His wet kisses covered her entire body. He kept kissing her, kissing her with an unimaginable gentleness.
He was so gentle, as if he was afraid of hurting her, and his gentleness made her uneasy to the max. She was so scared…The gentler he was, the more she couldn't guess his true thoughts.
Yi Xin carefully caressed her trembling body.
" Ah, Lord Baylor…" Yi Xue 'er chanted, forgetting herself. This time, he did not cause her any pain at all. Compared to what she had done before, this was the time that Yi Xue 'er had been the most immersed and selfless.
"Xue 'er, I love you!"
"Ah?" Yi Xue 'er looked at Yi Xin with her misty eyes.
"I love you!" Yi Xin kissed her hand as he sent her off.
Yi Xue 'er no longer suspected that she had heard wrongly. She had heard it very clearly.
" Lord Baylor…" Her eyes quickly filled with tears. Yi Xin said he loved her, he loved her!
"I love you, I love you, I only love you…"
"Xue 'er, be my wife!" He whispered in her ear.
Yi Xue 'er, who had already closed her eyes, did not reply. Her lips curled up slightly as she entered dreamland with a smile.
Yi Xue 'er walked briskly along the corridor of the Imperial Residence.
When she woke up in the morning, Yi Xin was already gone.
The passion from last night was still deep in her body. She wanted to see him, so she looked for him everywhere.
"Xue 'er." It was Xue Ru who was walking towards them. She ran over happily.
"Ge Ge." She held Xueru's hand tightly. " I miss you so much, Ge Ge!"
"Did you miss me?" Xue Ru smiled and glared at her." Don't be in such a hurry to catch up. Look, someone's here to see you!"”
"Someone is looking for me?" Yi Xue 'er's puzzled expression turned into surprise when she saw Yuqi slowly walking towards them. "Yuqi." He actually came to look for her!
Xue Ru took turns to look at them." You guys talk. Talk properly and calmly, understand?”
After Xueru left, Yi Xue 'er said to Yuqi in embarrassment,""I'm sorry. I left without telling you. I must have caused you trouble!”
Yuqi shook his head. "It's not trouble! I realized that you were missing last night. I thought that you must have returned to Prince Wen's residence. I was very worried about your situation after you returned.”
"I…"
" Ge Ge told me everything." Yuqi looked at her deeply. "Xue 'er, tell me the truth. Will you return to my side?”
" Yuqi..." Yi Xue 'er was so sad that she could hardly speak."I tried, but I still…"
"You still can't forget him, can you?”
"Yes, I still can't forget about the Baylor Prince!”Yi Xue 'er did not want to lie to him.
"I understand." Yu Qi lifted Yi Xue 'er's face and comforted her with a smile,""You don't have to feel sorry or guilty towards me. You didn't do anything wrong. It was my one-sided love for you. I thought that I could snatch you away from Yi Xin. You gave me a chance too.”
" I'm sorry." Yi Xue 'er was still very sad. She felt that she had really let him down.
"Don't say sorry anymore." Yuqi didn't want her to blame herself too much, so even if he was sad, he still kept a smile on his face.
"We didn't let anyone down. As long as you're happy, that's all.”
He held her hand as a friend. "Promise me that you will work hard to make yourself happy, okay?”
"Yes!" Yi Xue 'er finally smiled. "I will work hard. Thank you, Yuqi.”
Yuqi heard Xueer say so and left with relief.
After sending Yuqi away, Yi Xue 'er, who was standing at the gate, saw someone riding a horse towards the palace.
After a while, she saw Yi Xin riding on a horse.
"Lord Baylor." She ran to the front without thinking.
When Yi Xin saw her, he jumped off the horse and ran to her.
"Xue 'er!" Yi Xin suddenly hugged her tightly, as if she was his lost treasure.
" Lord Baylor…" Yi Xue 'er murmured. Although his body was cold, she felt warm.
"Look at what I'm going to bring back!" Yi Xin untied the bag on his back and took out something that Yi Xue 'er was familiar with.
" This is…" Yi Xue 'er stared at the white robe in Yi Xin's hand. That's right, it was the robe that he had torn apart.
"I'll return it to you." Yi Xin handed the white robe to her.
"How could that be?" Yi Xue 'er looked at it in a daze. How could this white robe be intact?
She asked him with her eyes.
Yi Xin said softly," I'll take it and get someone to repair it. Their craftsmanship is really good. It's impossible to tell that it was torn."”
"Yes, I am!" Yi Xue 'er touched the robe in her hand. There were no signs of it being torn.
" Clothes can be mended, but my face…" She couldn't help but think of her left face.
Yi Xin hugged her waist and their eyes met. "How about I mend your face?”
"Lord Baylor." "Do you really want me to…" Yi Xue 'er choked.
"I want you to be my wife, my only wife!”Yi Xin looked at her tenderly. "I'll be in charge of mending your face. Also, I'll mend your heart that I've hurt before, okay?”
"Good!" Yi Xue 'er answered him with tears in her eyes.
Yi Xin pulled her into his arms and buried his face in her hair. "Xue 'er, I love you!"
"I love you too." Yi Xue 'er said with a smile.
"It's snowing." Yi Xin first saw the snowflakes on her head, then looked up and saw snowflakes falling from the sky.
"It's still snowing at this time? Spring is coming!"
Don't you like snow?" Yi Xue 'er asked with a smile.
"I might not have liked it in the past, but I do now.”Yi Xin hugged her tightly. "Because it's your name, isn't it?”
"Yes, I am!" Yi Xue 'er leaned against his chest in peace.
It would definitely snow in the winter, but her heart would probably stop snowing. Because the beautiful spring had already descended upon her!#
