Taking care of Yun Yang, Yun Yang, Yun Yang, was not exactly ridiculous, but it was close enough.
In spite of this, the two girls sat quietly. Initially, Shangguan Lingxiu had focused more of her attention on Yun Yang, but after making sure that Yun Yang was fine, she could not help shifting her attention to Ji Lingxi. She was shocked to realize that Ji Lingxi seemed to be very different from how she was previously. Her entire aura seemed to have undergone a drastic change. If she was not certain that the person before her was her best friend, it was hard to imagine how the same person could have such a different aura!
"Sister Lingxiu must have been frightened today." Ji Lingxi smiled gently. "I've been too busy just now. I've neglected you. I'll go make tea for Sister Lingxiu."
Shangguan Lingxiu smiled faintly. "It's alright. With Yun Yang's protection today, I'm very safe. Perhaps you don't believe me, but I've never been worried about what happened today from the beginning to the end. "
Ji Lingxi said, "Sister Lingxiu is generous indeed. It's a pity that this fool has fought so hard."
Shangguan Lingxiu replied, "This is another matter. Today's battle is a trivial matter of life and death to me. I've long been indifferent to it, but Yun Yang still has many concerns. Of course, he has to fight with all his might."
Ji Lingxi smiled and said, "Sister Lingxiu, you've seen through life and death and are open-minded. This little sister is just like this fool. I always think that it's better to be alive if I can. After all, only when I'm alive can I have the right to talk about the future. "
Shangguan Lingxiu's expression shifted slightly before returning to normal. "Sister Lingxi is right. Of course, no one is willing to die if they can live. However, when it comes to a time where they have to choose between life and death, the choice has to be made eventually. Which is right and which is wrong, which is this and which is this? It's inevitable that they're stubborn."
Ji Lingxi sighed and said, "Even if they're stubborn, they still have to see if it's worth it!"
Shangguan Lingxiu did not continue the conversation. She felt strange. Not only was Ji Lingxi's aura different today, her speech and behavior seemed to have changed as well. Her tongue was so sharp that Shangguan Lingxiu felt like she could not handle it.
Even when Yue Rulan was still around, Shangguan Lingxiu had not felt that it was difficult to deal with these two women. In spite of this, Shangguan Lingxiu felt that she had nothing to say in response to Ji Lingxi's words today, each and every one of them was laced with sarcasm.
Shangguan Lingxiu was speechless while Ji Lingxi, who was sitting opposite her, felt uncomfortable as well.
So what if Ji Lingxi had the upper hand in her argument? The reality was that Yun Yang had gone through thick and thin with Shangguan Lingxiu. He had even risked his life for Shangguan Lingxiu, resulting in him being severely injured … Even if he was not severely injured, he was still injured. Everyone could see how dangerous the situation was. Ji Lingxi was even more afraid than her heart ached. Naturally, she was disgusted by Shangguan Lingxiu.
However, she sighed and said, "Lingxiu, Lingxiu Lingxiu's words. I … I … I … I … I … I … I … of … I … I … I … I … I … I … I … I … Sister Yang I … I Yang's of the Yang of Lingxi's ….
What he said was the truth. Ji Lingxi asked herself honestly – could she walk away if she were in the same situation, let alone Yun Yang? The only choice was to fight to the end like Yun Yang!
Live and die together!
There was no other choice.
Similarly, if Shangguan Lingxiu had been in the same position, she would not have let go and only cared about escaping alone.
It was because of this that Ji Lingxi realized that her previous words had been too unreasonable. Embarrassed, the young girl apologized and made amends.
Shangguan Lingxiu smiled, not feeling offended at all as she replied, "The main reason why you said that is because you're worried about Young Master Yun's safety. How could I not know that? Why would you be angry at me over such a matter? Actually, you're very open-minded. So what if you say that you've seen through life and death? If you've really seen through life and death, what I should have done was to kill myself when the enemy's encirclement was just a way of saying that I would die if I was unwilling!"
How could Shangguan Lingxiu not understand Ji Lingxi's feelings?
Both girls smiled at each other, no longer holding a grudge.
Ji Lingxi glanced at Yun Yang who was lying on the bed, pursed her lips and sighed, saying, "This fellow … You might say that he's unromantic, but he's quite … quite … but you might say that he's a playboy … Sometimes, he's so wooden that it makes one want to beat him up … Even if you beat him to death, it won't be enough. How does he have the demeanor of Yutang's top popinjay?"
The last sentence was left unsaid in her heart, "He's an unromantic piece of wood, but he's so good at flirting and flirting …"
For example, this lady in front of her, a heroine of her generation, was also captivated by this fellow.
Shangguan Lingxiu blushed when she heard that and said faintly, "Actually, it's quite good that he's like this. It makes one feel at ease."
Ji Lingxi sighed and glanced at Shangguan Lingxiu. She hesitated for a moment, the words circling in her mouth before she finally blurted them out, "Sister Lingxiu, I heard that many people have gone to the Shangguan Residence to propose marriage recently … I wonder, what are your plans, Sister Lingxiu?" Shangguan Lingxiu looked at Shangguan Lingxiu.
Shangguan Lingxiu's beautiful face dimmed for a moment.
She smiled bitterly and said weakly, "Sister, this is a good question. You really care about me!"
Ji Lingxi chuckled humorlessly as well and said, "But this question can't be avoided. We have to face it eventually."
Shangguan Lingxiu said in a low voice, "How can I not know that this is unavoidable? I have to face it. I wonder how Sister Lingxi would choose and face it if you were in my position?"
Ji Lingxi sucked in a deep breath and said, "Sister Lingxiu, there's no one else around now. Why don't we sisters have a heart-to-heart talk?"
Shangguan Lingxiu glanced at Yun Yang who was lying on the bed and said in a low voice, "Alright."
Ji Lingxi said softly, "To be honest, this younger sister understands Sister Lingxiu's situation very well. I can empathize with Sister Lingxiu's feelings and know them very well …"
Shangguan Lingxiu sighed softly.
"I have to say, Sister Lingxiu, you … you're carrying too much on your shoulders. It's too tiring …"
"If I were in your shoes, if I were Sister Lingxiu …" Ji Lingxi gritted her teeth and said, "If there's no such person in my heart, perhaps … I'll just choose someone who's most beneficial to my family and whom I think is passable to marry. Life in this world is but a spring for the plants and trees, a lifetime without a heart. So what?"
"However, if there's such a person in my heart, how can I say that I have no heart? I think … my choice … "Ji Lingxi's eyes were filled with a heartfelt anguish as she said," … is perhaps … I'd rather carry all of this myself and move forward with the burden … I'll carry it for as long as I can … "
Shangguan Lingxiu lowered her head and nodded silently.
What Ji Lingxi had said was exactly what Shangguan Lingxiu was thinking.
Almost every word was exactly the same, exactly the same.
She could only feel her heartstrings trembling. Unable to control herself, she was almost about to burst into tears on the spot to release the emotions that had been suppressed for so long.
The toughness that she had been pretending to be was completely shattered by these few words.
"Therefore, I think … Sister Lingxiu has probably decided to spend the rest of her life alone." Ji Lingxi sighed softly, a hint of pity flashing across her eyes.
