No pop-up ads, so refreshing! Thanks for your support! Sounds good to me ^_^... Chapter 93
I came again to the banks of the Ruo Ye Creek, that dense forest of Begonia flowers.
Failed to catch up with the flowering season, all I see is a deep and quiet greenery.
Through the beautiful face of Lian Luo's deceitful frost and snowy beauty, I subconsciously looked around, but did not see Su Xiu's figure.
Ling Mo sneered as he looked at Yue Hui and the others who were guarding me on all sides, then looked at my slightly bulging belly, his eyes full of hatred, but without any surprise.
I understand that she never liked me, and didn't want to exchange polite but insincere pleasantries with her. I simply opened my mouth and said straightforwardly: "Miss Lianmò, where is Mr. Sū now? I have something to ask him."
The corner of her mouth curled up into a smile that didn't hide the disgust and mockery: "How convenient that the princess has arrived, the young master just entered Cangfeng Building early this morning, let the princess go find him herself."
I felt a slight pang in my heart, but could only helplessly sigh and say: "Since that's the case, I'll just wait for him to come out here."
Liu Mo smiled: "The princess is really good at joking, but Evil Doctor Valley isn't a charity house, when did it ever take in unrelated people?"
"Linglong sister, Miss isn't someone unrelated, Mr. Su will definitely not ignore her once he knows, can we please stay at the old Qingyi Garden first and wait for Mr. Su to come out?" Shuying couldn't help but softly plead.
Liu Mo's face suddenly turned cold: "Do you think Qing Yi Garden has been waiting for you all along, or is it because there's no one in Xieyigu?"
I don't want to get entangled with her anymore, so I stopped Shuying who was about to speak again and said faintly to Lian Mo: "If Mr. Su comes out of Cangfeng Building, please tell him that I will be waiting for him in the carriage outside the valley. If I don't see him, I won't leave."
After saying that, he didn't entangle himself anymore. Cangfeng Building has always been a forbidden place in Xiayigou. The spiritual positions of the successive valley masters of Xiayigou are worshipped there. Except for the valley master, no one can enter.
Su Xiu would almost every month go into one of the closed towers to cultivate, never allowing anyone to approach, and even I, back then, had never been an exception.
I don't know how long I'll have to wait this time, his seclusion for cultivation is always unpredictable, sometimes as short as three to five days, and sometimes as long as ten days or half a month, all of which have happened before. However, no matter how long I have to wait, since I've come here, I must see him and ask all the doubts that have been hidden in my heart clearly.
The carriage I was riding in looked unassuming on the outside, but its interior was extremely soft and comfortable. Xun Yun handled things as usual with great care, and there were enough provisions and warm clothing stored inside the carriage.
I'm not worried that Liao Mo will deceive me, or hide things from Su Xiu Mian. Although she dislikes me, she regards Su Xiu Mian as a god and will spare no effort to complete every task he assigns her, never deceiving him in anything.
But even so, the waiting days still make people anxious.
So when the green-clad maid from Yaoyi Valley came to me with gentle steps and told me that he was waiting for me, my heart couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Step by step, I walked through the dense sea of hawthorn flowers until the figure in a pale blue shirt appeared quietly before my eyes, and still I couldn't calm down my emotions.
All of this has appeared in my dreams too many times, so much that I can't feel any reality now.
"From the day I knew Sangmu Qing was dead, I guessed you would come, just didn't expect it to be so soon."
His voice rose softly, and I involuntarily stopped in my tracks, staring at him in a daze as he slowly turned around. The soft light filtered through the swaying sea hawthorn trees, gently stroking his eyebrows and eyes. He walked towards me step by step, his voice like a sigh.
"Qing'er, if you ask me, I won't hide it from you, but are you sure you want to know?"
I remember my own gentle and persistent nodding, I recall the depths of his clear and cold eyes, where a faint sigh and softness were flashing.
Before he could say anything, my heart had already sunk to the bottom. No matter how unwilling I was to believe it, but now I couldn't deceive myself anymore. Maybe everything San Muqing said that day was true, and maybe she was the real golden branch of the Murong family.
So, who am I? Who am I after all?
My daze, it seems, did not escape Su Xiu's eyes. He let out a soft sigh, stretched out his hand, as if wanting to tidy up my long hair that was blown messy by the wind, but just before he touched me, he slowed down and stopped. His gaze quietly swept over my slightly bulging belly, then returned to calmness.
I still didn't know how to react, his hand had already quietly landed on my pulse, and his eyebrows furrowed slightly, then he withdrew his hand. With a seemingly calm tone that left no room for turning back, he said: "For the time being, you'll stay in Evil Doctor Valley to recuperate. Don't think about anything else, because before I think you can handle these things, I won't tell you anything."
He took me through the sea of peach blossoms, across the Broken Rainbow Bridge, and back to the Light Ripples Garden.
Pavilions and verandas, still the same as in my memory, just like they never left.
It was just in those years that I and Shuying personally planted plum trees, which have now grown into a lush forest with branches stretching out horizontally.
I told myself not to think about it anymore, about going to the capital, about the Murong family, about all those things related to Sang Muqing. I tried to calm my heart and mind, just like I had many years ago.
Because I know that what Su Shuxin said has always counted, if my body is really too weak to bear it, then I will also lose the opportunity to explore the truth.
Su Xiu comes to Qing Wei Garden every day to take my pulse and administer injections, and also has a maid in a green dress who brings me the decocted medicine three times a day.
I had never seen the prescription he wrote, nor did I know what medicinal materials were used to decoct the liquid in the bowl, but every time I drank it down, there was not a shred of hesitation.
Even now, knowing that he is hiding a huge secret about me, I still feel inexplicably at ease and reassured, I trust him.
He also carefully and tentatively asked when he was giving me an injection, whether the "drawing eyebrows like frost" that day was done by him personally. If so, why would Chun Yu have said that it was "soft and weak"?
He quietly looked at me and didn't deny it, but instead softly said: "If your body doesn't have any problems, then you shouldn't believe others more than you believe me."
I shook my head and said softly: "I'm just worried."
His gaze softened slightly, but immediately retracted, his eyes were clearer and colder than before.
In my heart, a faint sense of unease suddenly emerged, but I didn't know what caused this unease. Wanting to clarify it, he didn't give me the chance. With a steady hand gesture, he put away his needle and thread, then looked up at me with a fixed gaze, his voice carrying on the wind, word by word...
"If you still want an answer, tomorrow morning, I'll be waiting for you at the Wind Pavilion."
Still remember the shocking swan's reflection (harem)
