Chapter 34 Conspiring IV (1/2)

Warm drops of tears drop by drop rained down on Murong Jingxuan's chest. He seems to have not felt this throbbing sensation in a long time.

Ever since he was small, he had always been living in Diqiu under another's charity. Although he was raised by Emperor Xuanyuan, but in the end he wasn't a child of the royal family. So more or less he was restraining his fears.

In those people's eyes, he was just a self-indulgent son of powerful parents, someone who loiters around those less than respectable establishments. In the public's eyes, he was an unrivaled playboy heir. But the struggles within was something only he could understand.

He was unable to look into what had happened to Qingyan in the past few years for her to have become like this. Just what in the world happened, for her to say such desperate words under these circumstances.

To abandon her for the throne?

If he really could, he was willing to give her this vast land as a betrothal gift, just for a smile.

”Qingyan, what's wrong? Why would you say that?” Murong Jingxuan closely held her in his arms and quietly muttered.

Qingyan continued to softly cry in his arms, as if she didn't hear what Murong Jingxuan said. After awhile, she slowly spoke, ”Murong Jingxuan, thank you.” She looked as if what had happened just now never happened.

”Qingyan, from now on I'll lend you my shoulder to lean on.” Murong Jingxuan looked to her and said still with a playful tone. This time she didn't retort his words, and instead showed a warm smile.

Seeing her bright smile, Murong Jingxuan faintly let out a smile, ”Qingyan, I'll take you to see how granny Ruo's two sons ended up.”

Hearing this, Qingyan shook her head, ”Your Highness, I already know how they will end up. Right now, I need to plan on how to deal with granny Ruo.”
