It took a while for Shangguan Lingxiu to understand the true meaning of Ji Lingxi's stuttering words. However, as soon as the realization dawned on her, her body trembled. She lifted her head and stared at Ji Lingxi in disbelief.
To be together forever.
Shangguan Lingxiu knew very well what this meant.
"I … I … I don't quite understand what you … you mean." Shangguan Lingxiu blushed as she stuttered, wringing her hands in embarrassment. It was not that she did not quite understand; she understood it all too well.
Ji Lingxi's words had been condescending from the very beginning. At least to her, it sounded like she was advising her to give up and declaring her attitude – this man is mine.
You have no chance!
Give up while it's still early!
However, the last sentence was so earth-shattering that it had forcefully reversed the situation.
This was the so-called divine reversal!
The more it was so, the more Shangguan Lingxiu dared not believe it. It did not make sense. How could she not be controlled? How could she …
Ji Lingxi's face was suddenly contorted in pain and helplessness.
Even her lips were turning pale. "Of course I have my reasons … If it wasn't because I had no other choice, why would I have to make such a compromise? Sister Lingxiu, please believe me. If there was even the slightest possibility, I wouldn't have agreed to it. I wouldn't have said so … "
Shangguan Lingxiu's heart wrenched as worry crept into her face. She lowered her voice and asked anxiously, "What's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with your body? "
This was the only reasonable explanation for Ji Lingxi's current choice.
Ji Lingxi shook her head slowly.
Shangguan Lingxiu frowned and said anxiously, "You have to talk about it first before we can talk about it. How can you solve it if you keep it to yourself?"
She was genuinely worried for Ji Lingxi now.
What exactly was the reason that could make such a proud and arrogant woman willingly give up on her own lover?
Shangguan Lingxiu could not think of a reason no matter how hard she racked her brain.
Judging from Ji Lingxi's behavior, it was Ji Lingxi who was in trouble; it had nothing to do with Yun Yang. Moreover, it was a serious matter, so serious that Ji Lingxi could only sigh helplessly.
Then, how could this be a small matter? How could Shangguan Lingxiu not worry?
Ji Lingxi's face flushed, then paled, then reddened, then paled again … After the cycle repeated a dozen times, she finally said hatefully, "I … I must have … must have been harmed by that old thing in my house …"
"That old thing in your house? Shangguan Lingxiu was confused. "Who is it then? How did he harm you? "
"The old man who gave birth to me but didn't raise me … It's fine if he didn't, but he loved me so much … Sigh …" Ji Lingxi gritted her teeth and said fiercely.
At this point, Ji Lingxi's long sigh was truly heart-wrenching. She was utterly speechless and helpless.
Then, he was really speechless. He was speechless for a long time!
"…????? Shangguan Lingxiu was dumbfounded, obviously confused by a certain someone's random narration!
What does that mean?
Why can't I understand a single word?
What was going on?!
"Sigh …"
Ji Lingxi sighed one after another while Shangguan Lingxiu could not help scratching her head, her eyes filled with confusion.
After some time, Ji Lingxi bit her lip and came over shyly, whispering into Shangguan Lingxiu's ear, "Sigh, I can't say it … This … is …"
"…"
Shangguan Lingxiu covered her red lips with one hand as she looked at Ji Lingxi. The look in her eyes was either curious, amused, incredulous, or inexplicably shocked. All in all, it was hard to describe the myriad of emotions in her eyes.
Ji Lingxi felt like her face was burning. "Say … I really don't know how long this will last. I don't even know if I'll be able to see this old thing again … How do I get rid of it?"
"If you can't get rid of it, say …" Ji Lingxi's expression turned gloomy again as she sighed faintly, looking forlorn.
Shangguan Lingxiu sighed as well.
She was helpless about this … and speechless.
It was the first time she had heard of such a thing since the beginning of time.
The old man's protection of his daughter was so tight that she could not even find a husband. Who would be willing to find a wife who would be bedridden for two months with just a hug and a kiss?
There was no need to even think about the next step!
Ji Lingxi had been an orphan since she was young. Who her parents were, where they were now, and whether they could be found in the future … all of these were still undetermined!
How could the prohibition be lifted? If it could not be lifted, what could be done?
Could it be that Yun Yang and Ji Lingxi could only look at each other with a bench's distance for the rest of their lives?
Would they continue to look at each other like this?
There would not even be a possibility of lying on the same bed!
Just thinking about it made one feel that it was strange, and also a great sorrow, right?!
"Has it always been like this? Nothing has changed? "Shangguan Lingxiu did not know what expression she should be wearing now.
Ji Lingxi did not know what expression she should be wearing either. "Sigh! Because of this, Yun Yang has lain on the bed three times, intentionally or not … "
"Cough, cough, cough …"
Shangguan Lingxiu choked subconsciously and began coughing violently.
Ji Lingxi's face was flushed. "Don't misunderstand … It was just a coincidence … Sigh … How should I put this … Although it's still too early … I don't want to … give myself up just like that … but … how should I put this …"
"Pfft …"
Shangguan Lingxiu really did not want to laugh. She knew that she should not laugh at this moment, but for some reason, she could not control herself and was convulsing with laughter.
"You!"
Ji Lingxi was enraged and sat aside with a pout.
After a while, she could not help but burst out laughing as well. As she laughed, she sighed heavily.
This matter was really … inexplicable.
Shangguan Lingxiu finally understood Ji Lingxi's thoughts. You can't do anything, you're reduced to a decorative vase, yet you're still hogging it and not letting anyone else touch it. How unreasonable is that?
Just because you like it, you'll be an old virgin for the rest of your life. Does that mean the man you like has to be an old virgin as well?
He still has to carry on the family line …
Can you do it?
Ji Lingxi had no choice but to make such a compromise.
"Hahaha …"
Shangguan Lingxiu covered her mouth, trembling with laughter.
Ji Lingxi was extremely embarrassed. "I'm worried to death and you're still laughing …"
"Worried to death …" Shangguan Lingxiu chuckled again. "Very worried indeed, very anxious."
Ji Lingxi grew even more embarrassed. She pounced on Shangguan Lingxiu and the two girls tangled together.
After a long time, Shangguan Lingxiu begged helplessly, "My dear sister … let me go …"
Ji Lingxi refused to let go, tickling Shangguan Lingxiu continuously.
At this time, a confused voice called out, "What are you two doing?"
Both girls froze at the same time. Turning to look, they saw that Yun Yang had already woken up and was looking at them with a puzzled expression. His eyes were filled with bewilderment. How did these two girls become so close when he was unconscious?
