Persistence is a kind of pitiful
Peach Blossom Spring
After Jing Rong and Su Ziluo left the palace gates, they arrived at this place.
At this moment, the two of them were sitting opposite each other!
The servant who was guarding the Peach Blossom Spring hurriedly brought in a pot of tea.
He poured two cups and placed one in front of Su Ziluo.
"No need!"
The waiter took back his teacup, lowered his head, and left obediently.
The peach blossoms outside were in full bloom. Occasionally, one or two pink petals would fall in, or they would be blocked by the white veil hanging at the corner of the pavilion.
Jing Rong's slender eyes were fixed on Su Ziluo's body the entire time.
His fingertips were constantly tapping in his sleeves!
Neither of them had the intention to speak first!
From the beginning, Su Ziluo's eyes were like the waters of a lake. They were tranquil, but at the same time, they contained a deep sense of mystery.
Indifferent and silent!
Until —
Jing Rong asked, "Has Teacher Su been to Great Lin before?"
"What does Prince Rong mean?"
"I just wanted to ask."
Su Ziluo shook his head. "I've never been here."
If someone else heard this, they might have believed it. However, Jing Rong didn't seem to believe it at all. His malicious eyes twitched slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled into a smile.
"There's no one else here. Mr. Su, why don't you tell me the truth?"
Su Ziluo didn't show any strange expression. On the contrary, he replied with an amused smile, "This one has never been to Great Lin, so how could I be speaking the truth? But Your Highness, did you invite me here just to ask about this matter? "
"Not at all!"
His tone was slightly stiff!
Su Ziluo said, "Your Highness, why don't you get straight to the point? There are some things that you don't need to beat around the bush. It's tiring to listen to them."
Who wouldn't be tired!
Everyone was tired, okay?
Jing Rong was usually impatient, but at this moment, he suddenly slowed down. He was probably trying to adapt to Su Ziluo's pace.
He paused for a moment, then frowned deeply and said, "Sir Su's words in the imperial court can be considered a straightforward person. Benwang will not beat around the bush with you, I will just ask you one question."
"Hmm?"
"Are you Ji Pei or not?"
The problem came too quickly!
It came too suddenly.
Fortunately, Su Ziluo had already made preparations before coming to the Peach Blossom Spring. Jing Rong's question was within his expectations.
He only smiled. His refined aura was overflowing, just like the smile on his lips.
Everyone felt a chill down their spines!
Such a man was like a warm breeze in spring, touching one's heart and making one feel limp and numb.
Even a handsome man like Jing Rong was jealous of her.
It was no wonder that Ji Pei was so deeply rooted in Ji Yunshu's heart.
Indeed, it was too attractive.
Su Ziluo moved his wheelchair to the eaves outside the pavilion. He gazed at the falling peach blossoms in the courtyard.
One of them landed on his shoulder.
Zhang Xuan wanted to brush it away, but as soon as his hand touched the petal, he stopped.
He might as well let it be.
After a long time, he slowly opened his mouth and asked, "Ji Pei? This name disappeared two years ago. It no longer exists. "
Jing Rong said, "To you, Ji Pei has indeed disappeared. But to others, it is not the case."
"Miss Ji?" Su Ziluo tilted his head.
Jing Rong was not surprised that Su Ziluo had already seen through Ji Yunshu's female identity.
Thus, he nodded.
In return, Su Ziluo only smiled faintly.
After a long time, he said, "Clinging to a person who has already disappeared is a kind of pity."
Pity?
Jing Rong coldly said, "Is it pity for her bitter wait? Is it pity for her suffering for two years just to wait for a man? Or is it pity for her stupidity? "
When he finished speaking, Su Ziluo averted his gaze. Suddenly, a trace of guilt and heartache appeared in his eyes.
From beginning to end, he maintained a calm expression.
However, his hands, which were hidden in his sleeves, were tightly clenched into fists because of Jing Rong's words.
After a long time …
"Your Highness, do you know that there are too many helplessness in a person's life? There are too many choices you have to make. And every choice you make will lead you to obtain something, but you will have to give up something else. This is an immutable law that no one can change. This is fate. Do you understand, Your Highness?"
'This is fate!'
Although her words were a little vague, Jing Rong still managed to understand what she was trying to say.
This person was Ji Pei!
After a long time, Jing Rong got up from the table and silently walked to Su Ziluo's side. He followed his gaze.
The peach forest was so beautiful that it was a little ridiculous.
"Then, are you really willing to part with her?"
Su Ziluo trembled slightly. He touched his thighs and smiled bitterly. "With my current state, what qualifications do I have to talk about being willing?"
"You know she won't mind!"
"But I do mind."
Su Ziluo's tone was heavy.
Jing Rong glanced at him from the corner of his eyes, but did not say anything.
Su Ziluo continued, "Your Highness, from Jinjiang to the capital, you have always been by her side. Sooner or later, she will understand your feelings. Right now, the only person who is qualified to stay by her side is you, Your Highness. In the future, please take good care of her. No matter what she does in the future, I hope Your Highness will forgive her."
"Even if you don't say it, this Prince will always be by her side. No matter what happens, I will always stand by her side."
"I hope Your Highness will keep your promise."
His words clearly had a deeper meaning, but no one could guess the meaning behind them.
After some time, Su Ziluo said, "Don't tell her that Your Highness met me today."
"I know."
"Many thanks."
After Su Ziluo left the Peach Blossom Spring, the attendant who was pushing him stopped and walked in front of him.
He made a few gestures with his hands.
Su Ziluo frowned. "Li 'er, you won't understand."
The attendant who was called Lie 'er made a few more gestures, looking very anxious.
After that, he squatted down and looked up at Su Ziluo.
"Ah, ah, ah!"
Li 'er was a mute.
Su Ziluo reached out and caressed his head. He smiled. "Don't worry, I'm fine. I made this decision two years ago."
Li 'er raised his hands and made a few more gestures. His eyes reddened.
"Li 'er, you won't understand. Father's death has not been avenged, the task assigned by the Great King has not been completed. Everything else is but a passing cloud. The past is in the past."
"Ah, ah …"
"Alright, don't mention it again. Remember, I am only Su Ziluo. You must not let Shu 'er find out, understand?"
Although Li 'er was very regretful, ever since Su Ziluo brought him back to Qujiang two years ago, he was his master.
So she nodded, got up, and pushed him away.
