She thought for a bit and then said, "Your Highness heard it at the Supreme Court this morning, right? So when I chased after the carriage, Your Highness didn't stop. Is it because you're angry? "
Hearing her mention the morning, Xiahou Qing frowned and continued to be cold, "That's your own business. Who you're going to marry and who you're going to marry has nothing to do with me. Why would I be angry?"
Ning Shu took a deep breath and gathered her courage to seriously look at him. Her clear eyes reflected Xiahou Qing's shadow and nothing else, "If I said that this marriage was not what I wanted, would Your Highness believe me?"
After experiencing the betrayal of her first life, three hundred years, seven lives and seven deaths, it had become a habit for her to face death alone. Every time death came, she would chew up the pain, fear, and despair bit by bit and swallow it into her stomach. She would never talk to anyone about it. Other than herself, she didn't expect anyone, didn't rely on anyone, and didn't believe in anyone. Later, even when she faced the pain of being cut to pieces and begging for death, she was only left with numbness.
In any case, no one would come to save her. She was destined to die miserably.
But in this life, her fate was restarted. Her lost family was found and her flesh and blood returned to her side. Then, she met him. She seemed to have been born with a weak personality. When she was sick, there was someone to act spoiled. When she made a mistake, she would be forgiven. When she was in danger, she suddenly had a trace of luck.
Thinking what if, what if, what if, what if, what if, what if, he was willing to save her. Then, he really did appear, again and again. It gave her a chance to live and ignited a long lost hope.
There was indeed a deal between them, a cooperation, that's right. But gradually, outside of the deal, the place on the left side of her chest that was constantly beating could clearly feel that something was different.
In the past, she didn't care who she married or what kind of face she would spend the rest of her life with. In any case, she just needed to guard her heart and not move it. Now, she cared. She didn't want him to die, she didn't want him to misunderstand, she didn't want him to be disappointed. She didn't want any of these things, so this morning, she subconsciously chased after him so far, wanting to explain it clearly to him. Long before she had thought it through, her instincts had already made the decision for her.
It would be foolish to continue deceiving oneself and others. Ning Shu was not the sloppy type.
Feeling the seriousness in Ning Shu's voice, Xiahou Qing finally turned his head. His face, which was as beautiful as the first snow, revealed a touch of gentleness, which spread like ink. "Then what's your plan?"
Ning Shu's face unconsciously burned. She hurriedly said, "In short, I will find a way to cancel this marriage as soon as possible. After that … after that, I will work even harder to catch the mastermind behind the scenes with Your Highness. "
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly as he slowly said, "Alright."
Ning Shu also laughed, her face burning even more. He had only said one word. Why was she so nervous? Where was her pride? In order to prevent him from discovering such a shameful thing, she quickly pressed her palms to her face to cool it down. But when she held her face, her heart beat even faster.
Before catching that person, neither of them could promise the other. He couldn't promise that he wouldn't die from the poison at any time, and she couldn't promise that the tragedy wouldn't happen again. Her family would be safe and she would be safe and sound. This seemed to be a difficult knot to untie. The only way was to catch the rat hiding in the gutter! It had to be!
