Chapter 167: Fooled!
Zifu suddenly visited, and Mu Yunqing was silent for a moment, seemingly not particularly surprised.
After a moment or two, I looked at my nose, my nose and my heart. I rolled my eyes, took a step forward and lowered my voice and said, "She is the one who wins face in front of you. The guards at the door will never admit her mistake."
"Um."
"Then do you want to see her?"
Slowly raising his head, Mu Yunqing's shining eyes looked far away at the surging sea of clouds on the horizon. His eyes were distant and calm, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Seeing this, Yiliang and Qingdai glanced at each other unconsciously, not daring to urge them, and just waited silently.
After a long while, I heard Mu Yunqing say in a gentle but firm tone: "Take her to the flower hall, I will meet her there."
A few nods: "Yes."
The flower hall is where the female family members of the mansion meet guests. Mu Yunqing's move clearly meant that he wanted to draw a clear line between himself and Zifu, so he did not invite her to meet her in the bedroom.
On the way to the flower hall, I happened to meet Yue Qingyao who came to visit Shen Yan.
A smile suddenly appeared on Mu Yunqing's face, genuine and gentle: "Brother is awake, go quickly."
"Really?!" When she learned that Shen Yan had woken up, the look on Yue Qingyao's face was visibly happy. She was about to go to the guest house when she suddenly thought of something and stopped in her tracks: "Are you going to..."
"Oh, I have something to do, I'll be back later."
Yue Qingyao was obviously doubtful about this.
It's not that she was suspected of being seriously ill, it was actually Mu Yunqing who secretly made too many tricks to provide Shen Yan with a chance to be alone with Yue Qingyao. He was going to have a meal, making a snowman, and playing in the snow. ...So her current credibility among Yue Qingyao is the same as that of the shepherd boy in "The Boy Who Cried Wolf".
But in the conscience of heaven and earth, Mu Yunqing really didn't lie this time.
Their eyes met, Yue Qingyao asked her with a smile: "Let me guess, are you going to mediate the conflict between two quarreling maids today? Or are you going to help Taxue find the little female cat?"
Hearing this, Mu Yunqing lowered his eyes and smiled a little guilty.
After a while, the person next to me said something like a wise man: "Princess, you have misunderstood our princess. We really have something to do today, and we have to meet guests."
Yue Qingyao: "..." Co-authorship was all fake in the past, right?
Mu Yunqing: "..." She suddenly understood the reason for Rong Jin's strictness. If she didn't become perverted, she really couldn't control them.
Although Yue Qingyao pierced the window paper, she actually didn't mean to blame Mu Yunqing, she was just joking with her: "Okay, if you want to see the guests, go quickly. It's been a long time for people to wait." good."
"good."
"Then I'll go over first." After giving a brief nod to Mu Yunqing, Yue Qingyao took her maid to Shen Yan's residence.
When she entered the room, Shen Yan was sitting on the edge of the couch, staring intently in the direction of the door. The moment he saw her, his eyes immediately burst out with a warm light, obviously he had been waiting for her.
Looking at him with such passionate eyes, Yue Qingyao's cheeks felt warm and she looked away slightly.
She walked all the way to the inner room and sat down on the stool next to the couch. Shen Yan's eyes followed her, as if he was afraid that she would disappear in the blink of an eye. His eyes were like a wolf that found that the shepherd was gone and could have a good meal.
"What do you think? Is there anything else that makes you uncomfortable?"
"I'm already fine, you don't have to worry." Shen Yan felt that he had endless strength in his body at this moment. Even if he worshiped heaven and earth immediately, it wouldn't be a problem to enter the bridal chamber.
"Shen Yan..."
Yue Qingyao suddenly called him by his first name, which surprised Shen Yan. She had never called him like this before. Even in her previous life, she always said "Mr. Shen" politely and distantly, like a ravine, deep across the between them.
Her sudden change caught Shen Yan off guard. He swallowed nervously, and then said: "What, what's wrong?"
"I have something to ask you."
"If you ask, I will definitely hide nothing from you."
"Do you have memories of past lives?"
"..." The slap in the face came so fast, like a tornado.
Shen Yan was completely stunned.
He was not thinking about whether to tell the truth to Yue Qingyao, but he was really confused. He didn't understand why she suddenly said such a sentence, and secretly guessed whether she also had two lives.
Yue Qingyao saw his reaction clearly, and she was almost certain in her heart, but she still asked: "Can't you say it? Or don't you want to say it? If it's the latter, just pretend that I didn't ask anything."
"No!" Shen Yan grabbed her hand in desperation: "I just didn't react."
Regarding his rebirth, Shen Yan did not need to hide it from Mu Yunqing like Rong Jin did, because their situations were different.
Rong Jin and Mu Yunqing had a bad start. He was worried that she was afraid of him and disliked him, so he had to pretend.
But Shen Yan has no worries about this at all.
I didn't say it before because Yue Qingyao had no memory of her previous life. Would it be scary if he rushed over and said to her, "I've loved you for two lives, and I died to save you in my last life. You have to repay me with your life." She put it aside, she thought he must be mentally ill.
But now that she has said this, it seems that she has also been reborn, so he doesn't have to worry about it. He secretly held Yue Qingyao's hand without letting go, and said with all his affection: "Actually...actually I I was interested in you in my last life, but I never had time to express it to you..."
"But fortunately, we still have this life."
"I know that your status is precious, and I am the one who set you high, but I believe that my heart is as sincere as gold and stone, and my love is as deep as the abyss. I would rather die than bear the loss."
"Qingyao..." Shen Yan had called out these two words more than once, but it was all behind his back. When no one knew, now that he was conscious and doing this in front of Yue Qingyao, he actually blushed. Face, trying hard to suppress a smile: "Yao'er... I want to marry you, grow old with you, and be with you forever."
When he was moved, he stretched out his hands and pulled the person into his arms.
Yue Qingyao didn't expect him to do this. He was hugged so much that he subconsciously raised his hands to refuse, but was ignored as he was shy.
She remembered his injuries and did not dare to struggle hard. It was this almost tacit response that gave Shen Yan great confidence. He almost cried with joy, and his voice sounded a little unnatural: "Yao'er, you Are you willing?"
Yue Qingyao was stunned and did not answer immediately.
Shen Yan did not rush to urge her, but asked her: "Yao'er, how were you after the earthquake in the previous life? Were you injured?"
After saying that, Yue Qingyao still didn't answer, and Shen Yan faintly realized that something was wrong.
He held her shoulders and stepped away in a daze. Seeing her look of surprise, the smile completely froze on his face.
He was fooled!
She has no memory of her previous life at all, and what she just said was just a lie to him.
That day, Shen Yan risked his life and went into the palace to save her. When he was rescued from the fire by the Forbidden Army, he whispered in her ear, "At least we died together. When you are reincarnated and drink Meng Po soup in the future, you Drink less and don’t forget about me like this in this life, okay?”
This life... three words, without any surprise, caught Yue Qingyao's attention.
Of course, if it was just this, it wouldn't lead her to come up with such a shocking idea.
But Shen Yan's kindness to her was so inexplicable. There was obviously no interaction between them, but he seemed to have feelings for her all of a sudden. But how can there be love and hate for no reason in this world?
So, she deliberately tested him, but she never thought that she would actually guess right!
But when she finally learned the truth from Shen Yan, she was still a little confused and felt as unreal as a dream.
Resurrection, is there really such a bizarre thing in this world?
But no matter what, it was true that she had just deceived him, and Miss Le was a real person. She thought that she would apologize if she deceived someone, so she reflected in a polite manner: "...I'm sorry, I can't answer your question. ……I have no idea……"
The last half sentence was a devastating blow to Shen Yan.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of his hands on Yue Qingyao's shoulders. He suddenly felt abrupt and pulled them back suddenly. His lips opened and closed. He wanted to say something but didn't know where to start. In the end, he just said in despair: " I...I'm just sick and confused...Don't take those nonsense to heart, Princess..."
In just one cup of tea, Shen Yan's heart went up and down so much that he couldn't stand it anymore. Before he finished speaking, he vomited out a mouthful of blood, and his face turned pale as paper.
This frightened Yue Qingyao: "Shen Yan!"
"...It doesn't matter." He narrowed his eyes and felt angry.
Yue Qingyao wanted to go to Mu Yunqing to show him, but he grabbed his wrist and couldn't move.
Shen Yan is not a confused person, and neither is Yue Qingyao, so he understands that his obvious prevarication just now cannot fool her at all. Since he can't hide it, he might as well speak clearly.
"Well, it doesn't matter whether you believe what I said just now or not, but the only thing is that I have no intention of asking you to repay me with kindness. If you don't also have feelings for me, you don't have to stay with me in order to repay the kindness."
"If you have someone else in your heart, you can go find your marriage and don't let me get in the way."
"Qingyao, what I want is your peace and happiness, and what I want is for you to treat me with all your heart. If it's just gratitude and guilt, then I'd rather not have it."
It's not that he doesn't like her enough, but he doesn't want to tie her down like this
If she doesn't like him, then she will always meet someone she likes in the future. There is no need to waste her life for the kindness of her past life and the debts of this life.
"Sir, the medicine is ready." The maid's voice suddenly sounded, breaking the deathly silence in the room.
The two of them suddenly came to their senses, and each withdrew their hands, pretending to be nonchalant, but the atmosphere flowing between them was obviously not right.
Before leaving that day, Yue Qingyao said to Shen Yan very solemnly: "I have written down everything you said. I will go back and take a good look at my heart. When I think about it clearly, I will give you the answer next time I come here. "
To be fair, Yue Qingyao was moved by the fact that Shen Yan risked his life to save her, but she couldn't understand whether there was any other emotion mixed with this emotion. But as Shen Yan said, if she was just ignorantly trying to repay her kindness, If you don't love him, you are not only treating yourself lightly, but also treating him lightly, which is not good for both of you.
Of course she had to repay the life-saving grace, but she hoped that even if she married him just for the purpose of repaying the favor, she could tell him frankly that even if she did not have a romantic relationship with him now, she would treat him as time goes by.
You will eventually be different from others.
Speaking of which, when Yue Qingyao left Prince Kang's Mansion, Mu Yunqing was still talking to Zi Fu, so she didn't interrupt her and just let the maid convey the message before leaving first.
