Chapter 412

Chen Ning suddenly flipped over.

Chu Shao Bai jumped up in fright and quickly hid into the shadows.

Who would have thought that she would not wake up. After flipping over, she continued to sleep.

He silently waited for a while before softening his steps. He walked back to her side and covered her with his coat.

Looking at her sleeping face, his heart couldn't help feeling disappointed. He really hoped that she would wake up and see him!

But he didn't know how to face her when she woke up.

Because he had broken his promise!

Before leaving, he had made a solemn promise that he would come back before the big hunt, but he did not do it!

"Ning 'er, don't blame me, don't hate me. I didn't break my promise on purpose, I ….." Chu Shao Bai thought of the person who made him break his promise. He bitterly gritted his teeth and forcefully waved his fist.

"Humph, it's best if I don't see him."

He sat down again and propped up his chin to look at her, not willing to blink.

His eyes were completely red. In order to come back as soon as possible, he had not closed his eyes for three days and three nights. He had changed horses on the way and finally arrived at the capital city on the day of the flower feast.

Because he knew that no matter if she won or lost the bet with his third brother, he would still see her on this day.

He really saw her!

However, the scene that he saw completely shattered his beautiful dream.

So she had saved his third brother eight years ago! So his third brother had loved the wrong person! So the child in Chen Bi Yun's stomach was not his third brother's!

He saw his third brother confess to her in front of everyone, kneel to her and admit defeat. He saw her forgive his third brother …..

At that moment, his heart was completely empty.

He did not continue watching and left the royal garden in a daze.

No one knew when he came and no one knew when he left.

As for her, she did not know he had come back at all.

He returned to the Empress Dowager's Peaceful Life Palace and continued to brew medicine for the Empress Dowager. His heart was like the medicine in the pot, boiling over the fire.

His face was calm, but only he knew what kind of torment he was suffering in his heart.

He thought that he would never see her again, but he never thought that the Empress Dowager would suddenly summon her into the palace to copy scriptures. She even told him to guard the temple and not let anyone disturb her.

Could it be that the heavens saw his pain and was merciful to give him a bit of sweetness?

He could finally openly stay by her side and see her all the time.

Chu Shao Bai's heart was filled with worry, feeling both sweet and bitter.

He really hoped that there was an endless supply of Buddhist scriptures in the temple hall. That way, he could always accompany her and watch over her.

"However, won't she be tired if she has to copy so many Buddhist scriptures?" He couldn't help but mutter to himself as his eyes fell on the small mountain of Buddhist scriptures on the table.

How could he help her copy it?

He got up gently, lit a candle on the table, and began to copy it stroke by stroke.

It wasn't until the sky began to brighten that he tidied up the dozens of pieces of paper he had copied, put down his brush, and blew out the candle.

When he turned to look at her, he saw that she was still in her dream.

He stretched his slightly sore wrist and prepared to leave before she woke up. Suddenly, his ears twitched. He heard an extremely faint sound coming from the top of the hall.

There was someone!
