Perhaps in the eyes of others, Gu Hanzhang is very kind to her now and is willing to lower his head and stature for her. She should be grateful and live a good life with him in the future.
Unfortunately, these are not what Chaoli wants. What she wants is to be relaxed and comfortable.
Back then, she made herself look like a ghost because of a man, and she also lost a lot of things, such as her self-esteem.
Nowadays, Chaoli holds tightly what she once lost and refuses to let go. No one can let her give up, not even Gu Hanzhang.
"Maybe you think I am like this because I am unwilling to do so, but it is not the case. If it were someone else, I would not be like this. I only treat you like this." Gu Hanzhang replied.
I only treat you like this
These words hit Chaoli's heart hard, giving her some ridiculous thoughts.
She had heard Gu Hanzhang say before that there was no relationship between him and Shen Lianyi, which meant that he did not like Shen Lianyi, but she didn't know if he had not been attracted to Shen Lianyi in his previous life.
But now, Gu Hanzhang's words made Chaoli's heart beat wildly, and his eyes became increasingly dim and unreadable.
Chaoli bit the tip of his tongue and calmly suppressed the throbbing just now, his eyes gradually becoming clearer and firmer.
Gu Hanzhang had been paying attention to Chaoli's movements, but he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he saw that she didn't show any emotion on her face.
Regardless of whether he was affected by the emotions in the dream, or whether he was moved after learning about Chao Li, he was now very clear about his inner emotions.
Chao Li breathed out and suddenly smiled, his mood not fluctuating much.
"Indeed, if it were another person, the Crown Prince would not necessarily treat her like this. I believe the Crown Prince. But could it be that the Crown Prince has forgotten how I treated the Crown Prince in the first place?"
Since the outcome of the two of them has already been decided, why bother getting entangled anymore?
Gu Hanzhang moved his mouth, "I"
He knew those things very well, but it was hard to say them out. He really didn't have the face to do so.
But he didn't want to say it, but Chaoli remembered it clearly.
"I heard that the crown prince likes the albizia flower, so I gave up the mandala flower that I originally liked, and only loved the albizia flower. I just wanted to be like the crown prince. The crown prince left Beijing for business, and I got up early to prepare dry food and cakes for the crown prince and send them to his house. Although the prince I have never tasted it, and I am willing to continue to do so. At banquets in the capital, as long as the prince hangs out, I will squeeze my head out to get in. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as shameless. But what I get is your love for adults. The young master's understatement: I have no intention of her."
"I came here before I got married. Gu Xiyue made things difficult for me in every possible way, but you didn't answer me. Princess Desao mocked me, but you also turned a blind eye and never took it to heart. Finally, when I arrived at Tingyu Pavilion to see the crown prince, I entered again. I was not allowed to study, so I had to wait outside. I could stand under the albizia tree for two hours, just to wait for the prince to come out and look at me after he finished his busy work. Of course, these were all done by me, not what the prince asked me to do. , so I don’t complain at all.”
"But, I am a human being. I am tired and frustrated. I don't want to be around the prince anymore. It's good like this now. I am relaxed and comfortable. No one can bully me. I don't need to wrong myself for the prince. Just like me When I attacked Gu Jiu, I didn't think about the Crown Prince's position at all, I just did what I wanted to do."
Gu Hanzhang has been regretting this time, regretting that she should not have been too indifferent to Chaoli. She had to pay a lot to come to him.
But after Chaoli Qin said something, Gu Hanzhang felt more and more that he was really nothing in the first place.
"Ali, I don't want to say sorry to you, but I still have to say, I'm sorry. I understand that this apology comes too late, but I believe that one day in the future, I can heal the pain in your heart.
You are also tired today and have a good rest. I will stay in the study in the evening."
After Gu Hanzhang finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the room without waiting for Chaoli's answer.
In fact, Chaoli understood that Gu Hanzhang was giving her time to calm down and was not willing to force her.
It's a pity that when she loved him deeply, Gu Hanzhang didn't respond at all. Now that she has let it go, no matter how considerate Gu Hanzhang is, it seems to have no meaning.
Chaoli leaned quietly by the window, his eyes falling on the albizia tree not far outside the window.
It is spring now, and some buds have sprouted on the Albizia Julibrissin tree, giving it a full-spring look.
It is undeniable that Chaoli's heart was still in turmoil today because of Gu Hanzhang's words.
Especially those words, I only treat you like this, made Chaoli's heart feel as if a piece of delicate land was opened by a small seed, and the grass poked out its green head.
Just when Xiaocao was about to continue to poke out, Chaoli pressed it down again.
Chaoli withdrew his gaze, rubbed his sore eyebrows, and moved to sit at the desk to read.
However, he couldn't understand a single word and simply ordered Qing Yi to pass on the meal.
Night came, and Chao Li was the only one in the bedroom today. She did not sleep on a bed, but was still lying on the couch.
Although the body is very tired, there is no sleepiness in the body.
Since he couldn't fall asleep, there was no need to force himself to fall asleep. Chaoli's thoughts gradually drifted to his past life.
There were too many pictures, and Chaoli finally fell asleep.
It was already the next morning when I woke up again. Today I was going to Fang's house with Mrs. Zhang, and Chaoli called Qingyi to freshen up.
In the past, Chaoli didn't like to dress too formally. Her clothes were very simple and elegant, and the makeup on her face was very light. Fortunately, her face was pretty, so it didn't have much impact.
But today Chao Li was uncharacteristically dressed up in a more colorful way, which made people unable to take their eyes away.
"Miss, you look really good today." Qing Yi couldn't help but say.
Chaoli chuckled softly, "Then according to your opinion, miss, I didn't look good in the past?"
Qing Yi stamped her feet, "Miss, I know Qing Yi doesn't mean this, it's really annoying."
The master and servant were talking, but Pei Yu walked in quickly.
"What's wrong?" Chaoli asked.
Yesterday, Pei Yu was taken away by Qin Feng at the gate of Shaohua Garden. Later, she came to confess to her. Chaoli didn't pay attention to it and told Pei Yu not to take it to heart.
The Zhenbei Hou Mansion belongs to Gu Hanzhang. No matter where he goes, he does not need to be informed.
Even if he suddenly appeared behind Chaoli, she would not be surprised, and naturally she would not blame Pei Yu.
But Pei Yu didn't look very good at this moment, so Chaoli asked naturally.
Pei Yu's face was rather stiff, as if he was thinking about what to say.
"Hey? Pei Yu, what's wrong with you? If you have something to say, just say it. Miss is not like that. Is there anything you can't say?" Qing Yi asked immediately.
She hesitates to speak, which makes her anxious and makes her want to help her speak. How hot can her words be?
Finally, Pei Yu plucked up the courage, looked at Chao and left the mouth.
