"Big Brother, it's you!" Xue Ru welcomed Yi Xin with a bright smile.
Yi Xin's tender eyes locked onto Xueru who was sitting on the bed. "I wanted to see you before I left. How is it? Have you eaten breakfast?”
"I ate it!"
"All of them?"
"Yes, sir!" Xue Ru giggled. "I'm done eating, my good brother. You're the same as Mother and the others. You want to feed me until I'm fat.”
Seeing his sister's long-lost smile, Yi Xin's eyes welled up with tears.
Three months ago, when he returned to Beijing, Xue 'er lied to him that Xue Ru had gone to the palace to stay with Yun Rou. He did not doubt his wife's words, and he did not expect Xue Ru to be suffering in the Yongjun King's Mansion at that time.
When he finally saw Xueru, he did not see his younger sister who was still alive and kicking. Instead, he saw his younger sister who was lying on the bed and dying.
It was Yun Rou who informed them to rush to the Prince's mansion. When he found out everything, he beat Yin Yong up.
He beat Yin Yong half to death, and in the end, it was Yin Yong's nanny, Ren Momo, who pleaded for him before he let him go.
Perhaps he knew that he deserved to die ten thousand times, but he didn't retaliate from the beginning to the end. Humph! If he dared to fight back, he would not only beat him half to death, he would kill him.
Just like that, he and Ama brought the unconscious Xueru back.
In order to treat her, Yun Rou even invited the imperial physician to treat her day and night.
With everyone's hard work, Xue Ru's illness finally improved.
After another month of careful recuperation, she could finally get out of bed and walk.
Seeing that Xueru was slowly recovering, everyone was happy and did not want to pursue what Yin Yong had done to Xueru.
The only regret was the innocent little life in Xue Ru's stomach. When Xue Ru was kicked in the stomach, the unformed child also passed away.
Everyone who cared about Xueru felt sorry for her when she died before she even came to this world.
However, no one mentioned this matter in front of Xue Ru because they were afraid that Xue Ru would be sad and her weak body would not be able to take it.
However, this matter could not be hidden from Xue Ru. On the day she was fully awake, her body told her that her poor child was no longer there!
Xue Ru cried for a whole month.
It was only natural that she would be sad, so no one stopped her from crying. They only hoped that she could vent all the grief in her heart. When the tears dried up, he hoped that this painful memory would disappear with the tears.
Xue Ru's eyes were clear and bright. There was no sign of crying.
Yi Xin smiled from the bottom of his heart. It seemed that he could go out more easily today.
"Big brother, what are you laughing at?" Xue Ru looked at him strangely.
Yi Xin sat beside her and put his arm around her shoulders. "I want to tell you something!"
"What is it?" Xue Ru blinked her beautiful eyes.
"I love you!" Yi Xin looked at her deeply.
"I know." Xue Ru smiled contentedly. "You love me, Xue 'er loves me, and Ama, Mother, I know you all love me, and so do I. I love you all too!”
"Xueru." Yi Xin hugged her tightly. "Promise me that you will get well soon, okay?”
"Good!" Xue Ru nodded vigorously.
After watching Yi Xin leave, Xue Ru's smile slowly disappeared!
Sigh! It would be great if she could really smile, but not yet. She smiled to reassure everyone. Only she knew how difficult it was to smile.
Now, she had no children and no husband. If it weren't for her family, she wouldn't have the courage to survive.
There wasn't a day that she didn't think about her child. She had already blamed herself for her dereliction of duty a hundred times, a thousand times. She could not keep her child. This was an eternal pain in her heart.
She wanted to cry at the thought of her child. She did not know how many tears she had shed, but no matter how many tears she shed, she could not call her child back…
After so long, she still couldn't help but blame herself.
As for Yin Yong, her heart ached when she thought of him. Even if her body recovered completely, her heart would never return to how it was before.
Just as she was meditating, a familiar voice made her tense up.
"Xueru!"
No way! Xue Ru rubbed her eyes. She must have seen wrongly. Yin Yong would never appear here.
However, no matter how hard she rubbed, he was still standing in front of her. Moreover, his hand was touching her face.
"Xueru…"
"Ah!" This extremely real touch made Xue Ru scream. Her trembling body desperately squeezed into the bed.
Yin Yong looked at her with a pained expression.
His expression made Xue Ru forget to run away from him. She looked at him in a daze.
Was he sad? Was she seeing things? Why did this expression appear on Yin Yong's face?
He either showed her a cold expression or a mocking expression. Otherwise, it would be an angry and ferocious expression. Why did he seem to have changed into a different person after not seeing him for more than a month?
" Xueru…" Yin Yong caressed her face again.
"What are you doing?" Xue Ru screamed in fear. Don't touch me!"
"Xueru?"
"Hurry up and leave! My big brother and my Amma will be here soon!”
"They won't come," Yin Yong said calmly,""Your big brother has gone out, and your mother has gone to court early in the morning. Your mother is still sleeping on the bed, and so is your sister-in-law. They look very tired. It must be because they took care of you all day yesterday.”
" You…" Xue Ru gasped. "Have you been monitoring me?"
"Because I want to see you!" Yin Yong grabbed Xueru's little hand. Although his strength was not enough to make her feel pain, she could not break free from him.
"Let go, what do you want?”Xueru did not want to see him again. She had finally made up her mind to take back her feelings for him.
"Listen to me!" Yin Yong's tone was gentle and dignified. "Listen to me, Yun Rou told me everything! I'm sorry, I actually misunderstood you for so long. Your big brother hit me right, I deserve it!”
"My big brother hit you?" Xue Ru did not know about this. She could not help but reach out to touch his haggard face. "Why did he hit you? Is it because of me?"
Yin Yong held her outstretched hand ecstatically and panted,""You still care about me, don't you? I knew you wouldn't forget me.”
"No!" Xue Ru pulled her hand back forcefully. She closed her eyes and looked tired.
"Yin Yong, it's over! Please…"
"I don't want to hear you say such things!" Yin Yong shouted excitedly. "I know I wronged you. It's all my fault. It's all my fault! You can punish me however you want, but don't tell me you want to leave me. Empress Dowager's decree…"
Xue Ru interrupted him."You don't have to worry about that. I'll ask Yun Rou to ask the Empress Dowager to take back the decree."”
Yin Yong's face turned pale. "I won't let you do this! You are my wife, no one can separate us!”
Xue Ru opened her eyes and looked at him in disbelief." Did I hear wrongly? I'm your wife? Haven't you always refused to let me be your wife?”
"Yes, I didn't want it before because I thought you were lying to me and scheming against me! I'm angry, I'm unwilling, and I only want to avenge my sister, so I put all the blame on you. Tell me, how could I fall in love with you under such circumstances?”
Yin Yong shook his head and smiled bitterly,""It's my damn self-esteem and pride that made me unable to see your goodness and gentleness. No matter how good you are to me, I can't help but hate you. But I was wrong. I only saw my own hatred, but I couldn't see my own love. I never admitted that I loved you, until…until Luo Wen pushed you into the water.”
Xue Ru listened to Yin Yong without saying a word. Although her face was expressionless, her eyes were secretly red.
"When I saw you fall into the pond, my heart struggled very hard. My hatred for you has made me unable to move forward, but the love for you that I have deliberately ignored has made my heart ache. I froze on the spot, not knowing what to do. When I finally moved towards the pond, someone rushed into the pond before me to save you!”
Xue Ru still did not speak. A tear fell from her red eyes.
Yin Yong resisted the urge to kiss away the tears on her face and said hoarsely,"After that, I tried my best to hide my love for you and refused to admit that I loved you. That's why I'm even crueler to you. I desperately convince myself that I hate you and that I can't love you.”
He lowered his head, and Xue Ru could see his wet eyelashes trembling. Then, she saw the tears on his face.
"I was crazy to kick you. I lost my mind then. When I saw you bleed, my heart broke! When I realized that my kick had hurt our child…I've never been in so much pain. After your family brought you back to Prince Wen's residence, I drank until I was dead drunk every night because only then could I temporarily be freed from the abyss of pain.”
Yin Yong grabbed her shoulder and said excitedly,""I know that I deserve to die ten thousand deaths. I don't have the right to see you, but I can't. Only after losing you did I realize how deep my love for you was. I don't want to lose you after losing the child. Xueru, can you forgive me? For the sake of the child, can you give me another chance? Let me love you and make it up to you!”
Xue Ru looked up at him and said slowly after a while,""You said you want to do it for the sake of the child? What about the child? Can you return my child to me? Can you bring him back to life?"
Yin Yong's entire body trembled, and his entire face distorted.
"You can go now!" "I can't forgive you!" Xue Ru said calmly. If the child was still here, perhaps we could continue to be together. However, if the child is gone, my heart will die, and you and I will be finished…"
"No, it won't be over!" Yin Yong shook her shoulder excitedly and growled,""I don't want us to be finished! I can't lose you, and I know you can't lose me either, right?”
Xue Ru looked at him and said,""You're wrong! I can, I can do it…"
" I don't believe you! You're lying!" Yin Yong shouted.
"It's up to you whether you believe it or not. I don't want to say anymore."Xue Ru closed her eyes tiredly." I'm tired, please leave!”
Yin Yong looked at Xueru blankly, not moving or speaking.
He didn't believe that Xue Ru would be so heartless. However, Xue Ru's behavior made him believe it.
In her eyes, he could not see her gentleness and affection. She didn't even look at him anymore. She didn't even want to look at him.
The Xueru who only cared about him in the past was no longer there. She had died with their child.
The current Xueru might not hate him. As for love, it seemed that she could not find it back.
Yin Yong slowly left Xueru's side and walked towards the door.
He still had a glimmer of hope that Xue Ru would stop him.
However, he was disappointed. Xue Ru did not make a sound even after he walked out of the door.
He turned around and said to her gently,""I will wait for the day you forgive me. I will wait forever.”
Xue Ru remained motionless like a rock.
Yin Yong left in disappointment after not getting any response.
After some time, Xue Ru, who had her head lowered, let out a low whimper.
Ten days later, Xue Ru had fully recovered.
In the afternoon, she rode alone to the outskirts of Beijing without telling anyone.
She hoped to be able to sweat profusely, run freely in this green field, and enjoy the fresh air that she had not felt for a long time.
Sitting on the horse's back, she let the cool breeze blow on her face and made her feel comfortable. She threw away all the unhappiness in her heart. She wanted to find the happiness that she had lost for a long time.
However, happy times were always short. After riding for less than two hours, a man she hated appeared in the vast wilderness.
"Hey, it's Xueru!" Luo Wei, who happened to pass by on his horse, galloped toward her from afar with his horse as if he had discovered a treasure. "I heard that you were sick. You should have recovered by now!”He stopped in front of her.
"Thank you for your concern." Xue Ru had no choice but to respond. "I'm sorry, I don't have time to accompany you. Please move aside!”
"It's not easy to see you. Accompany me for a few more words before you leave!”Luo Wei said with a mischievous smile.
"I said I'm not free!" She held her breath and repeated herself.
" Hehe..." Luo Wei seemed to have thought of something and laughed slyly. "Don't vent your anger on me! The one who abandoned you was Prince Yong, not me.”
" You..." Xue Ru was too lazy to argue with him. She pulled the reins and turned the horse around.
When she moved, Luo Wei also moved. His mount was right behind her.
"My Xueru, my good Ge Ge, don't be too sad! Prince Yong doesn't want you, but I, Baylor Luo Wei, still have you! I promise that I will love you very much. Don't go! I haven't finished speaking!"
Xue Ru suddenly sped up, wanting to leave Luo Wei behind.
However, Luo Wei's horse didn't lose to her horse. He caught up very quickly!
Annoying, why did he keep chasing her? Xue Ru became more and more anxious. Not only could she not shake off Luo Wei, but he could also catch up to her at any time.
"Hurry up!" She kicked the horse hard to make it go faster.
At this time, she only wanted to stay far away from Luo Wei and didn't notice that there was another person following behind her.
She galloped into the forest and Luo Wei caught up very quickly.
"Xueru, stop! Your horse is no faster than mine!”Luo Wei laughed.
Feeling Luo Wei's approach, Xue Ruyi became nervous and lost her grip on the reins.
She didn't know what had happened. She only knew that she had been bounced up and was flying in the air.
What she landed on was not hard land, but a small stream.
She sank heavily into the water, and the icy cold water of the stream crashed against her body.
Seeing Xue Ru fall into the stream, Luo Wei knew that he had caused a big trouble. He left the scene as quickly as possible and fled.
At this moment, Xue Ru was completely swallowed by the stream!
Before she lost consciousness, she felt as if someone had grabbed her…
She didn't know if she was hallucinating, but she had the illusion that someone was hugging her and calling her non-stop. That person was actually…
"Xueru, Xueru, wake up!”
This should also be an illusion, right? It was just that this illusion was much more real than her previous illusion.
" Xueru, please open your eyes, I beg you…" The next illusion was that she was being hugged tightly. She felt that the person hugging her was so warm!
She didn't want to open her eyes. She was afraid that these illusions would disappear once she opened her eyes.
So, she didn't open her eyes, and she felt sleepy…sleepy…
Sleep! As long as she did not open her eyes, she could have these illusions forever!
Xue Ru still opened her eyes, but that was several hours later.
When they saw Xue Ru open her eyes, everyone in the room looked happy and comforted.
" You guys…" Xue Ru looked at everyone strangely. Ma, Mother, Big Brother, Xue 'er, Zhu' er…Everyone was here.
Other than them, there was another person who was also there. It was Yin Yong, who was by her side.
"What about me?" Her dry throat finally managed to squeeze out the words.
"You fell into the stream, and it was Yin Yong who saved you!”Xue 'er said.
Xue Ru looked at Yin Yong blankly. Those illusions had become real at this moment.
Yes, it was Yin Yong who saved her. She still remembered the feeling of Yin Yong hugging her, the sound of Yin Yong desperately calling her, and the memory of Yin Yong using his body to warm her up. She recalled it bit by bit!
"Don't worry, I've already gone to the Regional King's Mansion.”Yi Xin said angrily. "That kid confessed everything! I told him that if anything happens to you, I'll make him pay with his life. That kid fainted on the spot.”
"Is that so?" Xue Ru couldn't help but laugh when she thought of Luo Wei fainting in front of Yi Xin.
Her smile made everyone feel relieved.
Yi Xue 'er considerately brought a cup of tea to Xueru.
While Xue Ru was drinking tea, Prince Wen spoke,""Xueru, do you want this person to stay here? If you don't want to see him, I'll chase him away immediately!”
"No, I can't! Ama." Xue Ru almost choked. After calming herself down, she said,"I have something to tell him. Can you all please leave first?”
"Is this alright?" Yi Xin stared at Yin Yong with his sharp eyes. He was afraid that Yin Yong would hurt Xueru.
He was not the only one. Everyone present had the same thoughts as him.
"I'll be fine." Xue Ru saw through everyone's doubts and comforted them.
"I also guarantee that Xueru will be fine.”Yin Yong said loudly," I'm willing to use my life as a guarantee. Please believe me!”
"Humph!" Prince Wen snorted. He was still worried.
"Wangye, let's go!" The Fujin pulled Prince Wen. "It's always better to let them speak clearly. If you're worried, we'll just stand guard outside the door.”
"Alright then!" Prince Wen reluctantly accepted it and said to Yi Xin,""Leave! I'll give this kid a chance to redeem himself!”
Yi Xin looked at Xue Ru and sighed, then left with Yi Xue 'er.
Finally, only the two of them were left in the room!
Yin Yong looked at Xueru in a daze and said softly,""I almost lost you again. I don't believe I can bear the same thing a third time. If I do it again, I'm afraid my heart won't be able to take it…"
"How did you know where I was?”Xue Ru asked softly.
"You don't want to see me, but I can't ignore you.”Yin Yong sighed. "As long as I have time, I will stay near your house. I hope to meet you. I also sent some people to take turns to watch over you when I'm not around. I'm afraid something will happen to you. As expected, my concerns were right. After my men saw you riding out of the Imperial Residence, they immediately returned to report. That was why I saved you in time. God bless us, fortunately, we're still in time!”
"What if you still can't save me in time?”Xue Ru looked at him and asked.
Yin Yong shook his head." I don't know... Maybe I'll accompany you..."
"Really?"
Yin Yong nodded. "Losing you is too painful. If I can die with you, it's better than me living alone in this world. You're really important to me, more important than my own life.”
Xue Ru looked at his sincere face gently. "Can I believe what you said?”
Yin Yong's face lit up. He held his breath and looked at her, saying,""Xueru, you mean…"
Xue Ru smiled and extended her hand to him. "Hug me!"
Yin Yong immediately hugged her and hugged her with true feelings.
"When I thought I was going to die, I only thought of you.”Xue Ru complained softly. "I don't want to lie to myself anymore. Even if I hate you, my love for you will never be erased. I told myself that if the heavens let me live, I would never leave you again. I will use the rest of my life to love you wholeheartedly. Even if you don't want me, I will…"
" I want it, I want it, I want it…" Yin Yong kept shouting. He held her face and stared at her.
His expression was no longer as cold as usual. She could feel his passion now.
" I want you, I only want you…" Yin kept kissing her face and mouth. "Have you forgiven me? You've forgiven me, haven't you?"
"Yes, I forgive you!" Xue Ru looked at him tenderly." I have to forgive you because I want to continue loving you!”
"Xueru." Yin Yong was too happy and touched. He hugged her and kissed her crazily.
"I love you, I love you, I love you!" Although his kiss was passionate, it was also very gentle. "Let's start over. I will prove that my love for you is definitely not less than your love for me. I will prove this.”
" Also…" Xue Ru touched his lips and smiled." I only want your gentleness. Let me know that you can treat me gently, not like before…"
"I won't let you get hurt again.”Yin Yong hugged her and lay on the bed. "I will prove my gentleness, like this…"
He kissed her gently, kissing her small mouth and her fair neck.
Even if there were guardians outside who loved her, they couldn't care less. Now, they only wanted to enjoy the gentle time that belonged to the two of them.#
