She was afraid. She didn't dare to.
When Mo Wushang said that he loved her, said that he liked her, said that he was willing to give up everything for her, she was touched. After calming down, she would ask herself repeatedly, what was worth his sacrifice?
For her, Mo Wushang's love for her was inexplicable, without any reason.
She bowed her head and didn't speak.
The man insisted on letting her speak. He lifted her chin with his cold fingertips. "Ji 'er."
"What about the regent?"
Shen Yueji looked up at him with a rare seriousness in her eyes. "Will you lie to me?"
The man frowned and shook his head firmly. "No."
"Good."
She raised her lips and smiled. "If the regent doesn't lie to me, I'm willing to treat you sincerely. If you lie to me, you've helped me a lot before. No matter what your purpose is, from now on, we'll never see each other again."
Because of the deception, Shen Yueji didn't want to give her heart to someone else again. She didn't want to end up like her predecessor.
But she couldn't refuse Mo Wushang's love for her. This kind of love was too deep, more sincere than what Feng Jiuqing gave her.
Since this was what he wanted, she could try to accept him. As she said, no matter what his purpose was, this was the only return she could give him.
Hearing this, the man's dark eyes were calm after a storm, without a trace of emotion.
He finally sighed and got into the carriage with Shen Yueji in his arms.
What he wanted, even if it wasn't equal to her love for him, he only hoped that she had him in her heart. What he wanted was her love and her heart.
Not a return.
As they sat in the carriage and left, a wooden window on the third floor of the Drunken Joy Building opened gently.
A handsome man's face was revealed. Shangguan Yu's gentle face was a little more dignified.
He looked thoughtfully at the direction where Shen Yueji left.
Few people knew Mo Wushang's feelings for Gu Yueqin, the eldest daughter of the Gu Family. Most of the aristocratic families in the capital knew.
But he had seen Mo Wushang's attitude towards Shen Yueji.
But just now …
His fingertips rotated, and his smooth fingertips turned red, and he felt waves of pain.
"Ji 'er … Is it really you? Why do you give me such a strange feeling now … "
Thinking of the strange look in her eyes when she looked at him yesterday, Shangguan Yu felt a throbbing pain in his heart. Last night, he stumbled back to the mansion alone from the Drunken Joy Building and locked himself in his room to think about many things.
Thinking of their past, thinking of how she had bared her fangs and brandished her claws at him.
...
General's Mansion
Coming down from the carriage, Shen Yueji raised her head to look at the big red lanterns hanging high on the door plaque and the red cloth strips on both sides of the door. It was a festive scene.
Her mouth twitched as she looked at the man behind her. "Did I come to the wrong door?"
The answer was noncommittal. Mo Wushang held her hand and led her into the residence.
Shuang Xi had been waiting at the door for a long time. When he saw her come in, his face was full of joy. "Miss, you're back? The general heard that Gu Mingchi was killed in the Phoenix House, so he's beating gongs and drums to celebrate. He's even hired people to line up at the Phoenix House to sing and cheer. "
Shen Yueji's face darkened as she listened to the sounds of him practicing his voice coming from the manor.
