It was already evening, and there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the street. They were walking aimlessly on the street. They absolutely could not go back home. With my father's temper, I knew what brother Xuan's actions would cause, and he didn't know how much trouble it would cause.
But if I don't go home, where can I go?
I didn't eat much for lunch, and now I feel a little hungry.
I came to sit in a restaurant near the city gate. It was lunch time. The restaurant was very busy. Most of them were mercenaries. This is the gate of the city. Many mercenaries would choose to enter the city and stay in hotels before night, so the restaurant
Business is also extremely good.
The restaurant staff were constantly shuttling between the tables, serving dishes to the guests. Perhaps they were used to such a busy job. Their work efficiency was very high, and all the dishes I ordered were served in a short time.
Looking at the large table full of dishes in front of me, I suddenly felt my index finger twitching. Maybe it’s because I feel more sad than my heart is dying. At this moment when I truly face the reality and let go freely, my heart seems to be freed from the shackles, and I feel a lot more relaxed.
So my appetite is much better.
After dinner, I didn't stay here any longer. I really didn't want to stay in this town that could only bring me sadness. Maybe going out for a walk would be a good choice for me.
There was a wide pipe outside the city gate, and I got on a temporarily rented carriage and embarked on the road to a neighboring town.
Although Red Leaf City is located in the middle of Sicily, it is still a little far away from neighboring towns. Renting a carriage is a good choice.
Sitting in the carriage, thinking about everything that happened today, I suddenly felt tired, so I leaned on the carriage and fell asleep in a daze.
I don’t know how long it took, but I woke up leisurely. A strong smell of blood rushed to the tip of my nose. I was shocked. Before I had time to react, I heard a gentle male voice: "Are you awake?" The voice came from beside me.
When I heard the news, I turned around and saw a man in black sitting next to me looking at me. It was none other than the earl who had been pursuing me.
Seemingly seeing my confusion, he smiled and explained: "I'm sorry, in fact, I have been following you since you left the City Lord's Mansion. I know everything that happened to you in the City Lord's Mansion, and I'm afraid you won't be able to think about it.
Something stupid happened, so I had to follow you all the time.
Originally, I just wanted to protect your safety secretly, but I didn't expect that the coachman you hired had evil intentions and was preparing to stun you while you were resting, so I had no choice but to show up and kill him.
After listening to him explain the whole story, the bitterness of these days came to my heart, but I didn't cry. I nodded slightly to express my gratitude and prepared to leave.
Seeing what I was thinking, he hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Maybe it is abrupt to say such words at this time, but I still have to mention that it is very dangerous for you as a girl to be outside. If you don't mind, you can
Come with me, I am preparing to go to the province of Sicily."
After experiencing the danger just now, I also felt that this was not the time to be coy. It was better to go home. As long as I explained it clearly to my father, I believed that my father was also an understanding person. I nodded to him to express my agreement with his opinion.
In this way, he and I embarked on the road home.
With his escort, I encountered no trouble on the way, and I returned home two days later.
When my father saw that he was sending me home, he didn't say anything. He just looked at me with complicated eyes, and then said earnestly: "Daughter, sometimes love is not necessarily everything in life. My father is not stopping you from loving anyone. I
I just hope you can stop working so hard and be happy! My father feels sorry for you when he sees you working so hard!"
My father didn't say much, but it hit my heart hard. It can be said that I have always acted arbitrarily and never cared about the consequences, but I didn't know that the person who felt the most distressed when I was wronged was my father.
I don’t know how long ago, my father’s original black hair had turned gray, and even his straight spine was slightly rickety. There were already some wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. Maybe he was too worried about his mother. Tears burst out of his eyes involuntarily when he thought about it.
In my father's arms.
Suddenly I realized that I had always been too selfish, just for myself, and never considered my father's mood. I couldn't go on like this anymore, and silently said to myself, for myself and for my father.
After that day, I dated that count frequently, and he gave me the impression of gentleness, but it was this gentleness that made me treat him like an older brother.
Seeing that I got along well with the count, my father was very happy, so I felt calm. Maybe it would be a good thing to live with a person like an elder brother for the rest of my life, at least my father would no longer have to worry about it.
In this way, I had my second wedding, and the scale of the wedding was even more luxurious than the first time. Once again, I put on a white wedding dress, but I didn’t feel any happiness, I just felt at ease.
The wedding will be held a month later, and will be held in the province of Sicily. I am very grateful to the count for his thoughtfulness.
I originally thought that my partner had decided this way, but there are always many variables in life. Just like when I loved Brother Xuan very much, he turned a blind eye to me; but when I really let go, he told me that he loved me.
Fuck me.
Yes, at my wedding, the groom who did not appear last time appeared this time, with his belated confession. Such a sudden accident made the entire wedding a mess, and I stood there blankly.
At a loss.
It turned out that Brother Xuan was not living well after I left and he often drank to numb himself.
That woman would often sneer at him when she saw him like this, so Brother Xuan began to avoid her, but he still took great care of her. Until he heard the news that I was getting married, and the groom was still the earl.
The first one to collapse was the woman. She cried when she heard it, and then laughed hysterically. Seeing Brother Xuan's devastated look, she actually said to him: "Haha, I didn't expect you to be as pitiful as me. Do you think I am
The child in my belly is really your child. Do you think I am really with you because I love you? Hahahaha, let me tell you, I just want to get revenge on her. If she hadn’t married the earl now, I would be the one.
, If it weren’t for her, I wouldn’t be pregnant with the child of a married person, and if it weren’t for her, I wouldn’t kill my own child so cruelly, and it would even be impossible for me to have another child in the future.... Hahahaha....
There will be no more. I originally thought that she would be the most tragic one if she took you away, but I didn’t expect that she would marry them up. Now we are the most pitiful. No, you are more pitiful than me. You have lost someone who once deeply loved you.
The woman who loves you, but I just lost a man who never liked me..."
Listening to the woman's hysterical venting, Brother Xuan clenched his fists and shouted at her: "Get out!"
Just like that, Brother Xuan fell to the ground in despair. After I left, he was also very depressed. I don't know why he always felt that something was missing. No one cared about whether he drank sobering soup the next day after drinking.
No one will silently clean up the mess after he gets into trouble, and no one will continue to care about him after being sarcastically spoken to by him. Maybe that woman is right, she asks for something but doesn't get it, but she doesn't understand after she gets it.
cherish.
But what's the use of regretting now? He asked her to leave with his own words. How could he still have the nerve to ask her to come back? Maybe she would be happy only if she left him!
