The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day

Chapter 140: The Emperor's Reward: Never to Divorce!_4



"The king of Chu's vindication is all due to the Emperor's sagacity. I am sure the King does not harbor any resentment towards His Majesty," Zhao Mengyu hurriedly said.

"The King of Chu also suffered in prison, Wu Xufan."

"At your service!" Wu Xufan immediately responded.

"Go and bring the King of Chu back in person."

"By your command."

"I also have to attend the morning court. Xing'er, you must take good care of yourself," Xiao Zhanping instructed.

"Your son thanks Your Majesty for your concern."

"Proceed!"

"His Majesty proceeds!" Chamberlain Mu shouted loudly.

"Your servant sees the Emperor off!"

A majestic procession of people departed.

Everyone rose from the ground.

Wu Xufan turned his head and purposefully looked at Ye Qichi, winking and acting as if he had done a good deed.

This simple-minded, strong-limbed person.

If it weren't for Zhao Mengyu's deep thoughts, accidentally saving her life, she would have died within minutes! But at this moment, Wu Xufan probably still thinks he has done a great deed.

She ignored Wu Xufan, patting her knees; kneeling was excruciatingly painful.

Wu Xufan, due to having an imperial order, did not delay further and left hastily.

The Imperial Physicians also began to change shifts.

In the sleeping chamber, only Ye Qichi, Xiao Jinxing, and Bai Mowan were left.

Indeed, it was somewhat awkward.

Especially now when Bai Mowan's eyes were still red.

It seems she might have cried secretly several times.

Ye Qichi felt that now she should leave some time for the two of them.

She always feels that Xiao Jinxing might want to comfort Bai Mowan now.

Whether it was coercion by the Emperor, ultimately, at least for now, Bai Mowan could not possibly be with Xiao Jinxing.

Ye Qichi did not say anything and just walked out of the bedroom.

To breathe some fresh air.

To know that the things the Emperor did today, she was also a victim.

She, too, needed to adjust her mood.

And so, she left.

Xiao Jinxing just watched Ye Qichi's departing figure.

Bai Mowan naturally noticed Ye Qichi had left, and when she turned her head, she saw Xiao Jinxing watching Ye Qichi.

Feeling Bai Mowan's gaze, Xiao Jinxing looked over instinctively.

No longer looking at Ye Qichi.

The two eyes met.

Bai Mowan's eyes instantly reddened again, and tears began to fall furiously.

They just couldn't stop.

As if venting all her grievances at that moment.

Being reborn, it seemed that everything was not as beautiful as she thought.

Although Xiao Jinsen began to face restrictions everywhere, and Xiao Jinxing began to overshadow Xiao Jinsen, which is developing in the direction she wanted, Xiao Jinxing seems to have grown increasingly distant from her. In Xiao Jinxing's eyes, she does not seem to be the only one anymore.

Her rebirth was not just about repaying a debt; more importantly, at the moment of her death, she truly realized that the person she loved was Xiao Jinxing. Because of love, she felt even more painful and wanted to be with Xiao Jinxing even more.

Little did she know.

Having been reborn, she had changed, and so had many others.

Ye Qichi... Xiao Jinxing...

Bai Mowan's tears naturally pained Xiao Jinxing a lot.

He gently apologized, "Wan'er, I am sorry."

The three words 'I am sorry'.

It seemed to provoke Bai Mowan even more.

What she wanted was not these three words.

These three words implied that Xiao Jinxing felt guilty.

And his guilt could only mean that he had accepted the current arrangement, accepting being with Ye Qichi, and was going to betray her.

She would rather have him be as angry as she was now.

Anger would at least mean that he despised such arrangements and would resist.

Bai Mowan's tears flowed even more fiercely because of Xiao Jinxing's words.

Xiao Jinxing reached out to wipe her tears.

The deep affection he had for Bai Mowan over the years, seeing her so upset, naturally pained him.

But...

But it seems, he could not find anything to comfort her with.

Nor could it seem to make any promises to her.

His throat moved, and he felt conflicted inside.

"Brother Xing, do you still love me?" Bai Mowan asked with tears in her eyes, looking at him blurrily.

Xiao Jinxing felt a pang in his heart.

He ached.

Seeing Bai Mowan in such a desperate and painful state, he couldn't bear it.

He wasn't a soft-hearted person, capable of being ruthless to many.

But just for Bai Mowan, he felt compassion.

Seeing her cry was very distressing.

This feeling, he himself had also doubted, why only towards Bai Mowan it was such.

Was it because he truly loved her?!

Loved her deeply, or was it... just a destiny that couldn't be resisted?

In this lifetime, there's probably always one very important person for everyone, and Bai Mowan was his one, the destiny ordained for him.

Xiao Jinxing nodded, "Yes."

It's love, perhaps.

If it weren't love, he wouldn't feel such heartache.

Not just heartache, but also with guilt.

Whenever he wavered even slightly concerning Bai Mowan, it would generate a tremendous sense of guilt, as if a voice kept telling him not to fail Bai Mowan.

Not to treat her poorly.

It felt like, an inescapable fate.

"But now…" Xiao Jinxing still wanted to say something.

He might not have any thoughts of separating from Ye Qichi again.

Firstly, the imperial decree is inescapable.

Secondly, he also wanted to make amends to Ye Qichi.

To her.

He truly owes her.
