The First Genocide's Grudge

  Mei'er shook her head, trying to shake off the unfamiliar feelings and put on her usual expressionless face: "Let's go! Hopefully they've already arrived safely in Qingfeng Town!"

  They should be fine last night, but for some reason, Mei felt uneasy.

  "By the way, what about Ah Yu and the others?" This was when Hui'er suddenly remembered that they had left yesterday. What about Princess Mei Yu and that woman?

  "I had them pack up and leave before I left, so they should be gone by now!"

  Mei'er stopped talking, her expression was exceptionally solemn, thinking about seeing Shang Li Tian and others made her extremely excited, she began to imagine that scene, whether she killed them with one sword or...

  She knew that if she killed Shang Tianyi, she wouldn't be able to escape unscathed either, so this time she didn't plan on leaving the palace alive.

  "An, if one day I die, remember to build a cenotaph for me, and on festivals and holidays, go burn incense for me!" She knew that if she died, her body would be gone, so she asked him to build a cenotaph, not for anything else, but just because there would still be someone here who could remember her.

  Mei'er's sudden words made Ah Nan pause, "Huh!" He reined in the horse and stopped, his large hand subconsciously tightening around her waist as he turned her to face him, his eyebrows furrowing: "Tell me, what was your true purpose for going to Shang Guo?"

  He's not stupid. Mei'er pretended to be the Holy Girl of Western Xia and risked her life to go to Shang Guo for a diplomatic marriage. There must be more to it than that, she must have some purpose in doing so.

  "One day, without me telling you, you will naturally understand!" Mei'er didn't want to explain further, actually she thought that even if she wanted to explain, it might not be clear.

  "Why wait until one day, why can't you tell me now?" An's eyes became unusual.

  Mei'er raised her eyes and gazed into his deep, bottomless black pupils, as if she could be sucked in at any moment!

  Just as calm and composed as before, with a hint of turmoil, she saw her current self from the inside, where there was only herself!

  Some pale lips moved, but couldn't tell him why.

  "Mei'er..." He softly called out her name, his large hands involuntarily reaching up to caress her face. In just a few short days, this face had already been deeply etched into his heart.

  Is it difficult for a hero to pass through the beautiful woman's barrier? He is not a hero, but he can't get past her!

  Looking at the face slowly enlarging in front of her, Mei'er knew she should refuse, but couldn't find a reason to refuse. The unintentional hurt flowing out of his eyes made it impossible for her to refuse.

  She has always said that she is ruthless, but in fact, she has never been truly ruthless! She has always thought that her heart is as hard as steel, but she doesn't know that even steel can melt.

  Time seemed to have stopped at this moment, and everything around also seemed to have come to a standstill. Even the horse was quiet, not making a sound, and the wind had ceased to blow in all directions!

  This moment became eternal, even they themselves didn't believe it, but everything around them did!

  Until they were both out of breath, they reluctantly parted from each other. Mei'er lowered her eyebrows and eyelids, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, hiding that rare glimpse of shyness!

  Anan smiled slightly, her eyes full of tenderness, and with a long arm, she pulled her into her arms: "Mei'er, what should I do with you?"

  Mei leaned into his warm and gentle embrace, feeling a moment of confusion. She didn't understand why she felt this way, but now, all she wanted was to be in his arms, because his embrace gave her a sense of security she had never experienced before.

  "It's already heaven-defyingly unreasonable for us to be like this..." She, who is about to become the queen of a merchant country, is actually with another man here... If people were to find out, wouldn't she end up with the same disastrous fate as Wu Chen'er?

  No! She would never allow Wu Chen's mistake to happen again on her own body!

  Hatred conquered all, her sanity returned in an instant, and she pushed him away indifferently: "We should go!" That cold gaze, that wooden expression, was as if nothing had happened just now.

  "Mei'er, why?" An couldn't understand. Just a moment ago, he had clearly felt that she had feelings for him, but why did she suddenly turn into this cold and unfeeling person? This was hard for him to accept.

  "Why are there so many whys in this world? It was just an accident earlier, and you're not treating me like this for the first time either. Let's just pretend nothing happened!" Mei'er's voice remained equally cold.

  This not only made An angry, but also very puzzled, using force to turn her around to face him: "Pretend as if nothing happened? Can you do that? Mei'er, look at me!"

  The girl secretly frowned and raised her small face, staring straight at him. Her eyes were still cold, with no trace of the confusion from earlier.

  An's dark eyes were suddenly shrouded in sorrow, his heart felt like it had been brutally scratched: "Mei'er, I know what you said is unforgivable, I also know that we will be punished by heaven and earth for this, but I still want to tell you, even if it's unforgivable, even if we'll be destroyed by heaven and earth, I've fallen in love with you!"

  When he said this sentence, Mei Er was stunned, and even he himself was shocked. He loved her? It actually came out of his mouth like that!

  It turns out that falling in love with someone is not about how long you've been together, but the moment you meet, it's all destined. The seeds of love are planted, and then love begins to take root and sprout...

  "Love me? Haha...!" Mei'er laughed, her laughter causing the flowers to tremble, as if she had heard something extremely amusing: "How many women have you said that to? But using it on me, your efforts are wasted!"

  Mei'er has been hurt by Wu Chen'er's love, how can she still believe in the existence of love? Even if her heart was moved a little when he said he loved her just now, it was only for that moment!

  Wu Chen'er loved Shang Li Tian, loved him without bounds. For the sake of Shang Li Tian, she didn't mind being labeled as a wanton woman by the world. As a result, she was thoroughly hurt by Shang Li Tian and eventually lost her life. Mei'er will never make the same mistake again!

  "I've never said that to any woman before, you're the first!" Anan was angry at her indifference and lack of emotion, his large hands grasping her shoulders tightened their grip.

  It pained her wound, and blood seeped out from the snow-white clothes on her shoulder, looking so piercing to the eyes. Yet, the expression on her face was nonchalant, as if that wound wasn't even on her body.

  An finally let go of his hand with a heavy heart, shaking his head in despair: "I didn't expect you to be so ruthless and cruel to yourself. Is there really no one in your heart who is worth treasuring?"

  "My body, I am the master of it. If I want it to hurt, it will hurt; if I want it to feel pleasure, it will feel pleasure!" Mei'er stretched out her hand and grasped her injured arm, blood slowly seeping from her fingers, a cruel glint flashing in her beautiful eyes.

  He's right! In this world, there isn't a single person worth her sacrificing herself for!

  "You!" An's cheek moved slightly, wanting to say something, but ultimately didn't say it out loud, grasping the reins tightly, and galloped out of the valley!

  He was filled with rage but didn't know where to vent it. She wouldn't accept his love, yet she still trampled on it. He resented that she didn't understand emotions and that she didn't even cherish herself. He wanted to shake her awake fiercely, but he feared losing control and hurting her!

  He knew that beneath her cold exterior lay a heart wounded and scarred, he knew exactly who had hurt her so deeply, so thoroughly!
