C708 (2/2)

Furthermore, Gu Daiyan, as the princess of Aldan, should still be recuperating in the third prince's residence. Naturally, she should go back and properly perform this final scene.

It would take at least a month or two.

On the other hand, Duan Chengrui, who was in the mansion of Sky Flame City, had already received the news when they had arrived at the Water Curtain Tower and boarded the boat.

At this moment, Qiu Feng was blowing the bell on the second floor, and even though Chang Yi Qin's eyes were no longer cloudy, there was only deep fear in the depths of her eyes as she leaned against Duan Chengrui's legs. Yue Qing, who had been restrained for a long time, had already become the mistress of the mansion, and was no longer merciful towards Chang Yi Qin.

”If I wanted to help you, Yue Qing, would you be willing to help me?” The black spot on Duan Chengrui's fingertip fell onto the chessboard.

Yue Qing frowned and thought for a while before replying, ”I don't want to. Even if she returns, she won't do anything for you.”

”I thought she wasn't a girl who only knew how to love. If I agreed to cure her and let her live forever, she would be willing to accompany me by my side.” As Duan Chengrui spoke, he took the white piece beside Yue Qing and placed it down.

A good game of chess had already become a dead end.

Duan Chengrui retracted his hand and lightly pinched Chang Yi Qin's shoulder with his fingertip. ”If you and I are talking about a woman that you can keep in the harem, then I'll give this world to her.”

Yue Qing's entire body shuddered as she raised her head to look at him, but she was already unable to tell who was in front of her.

”Your Highness, you mean …”

”In my entire life, I very rarely obtained anything because I had no choice but to fight over my status and hate myself. In the future, I will even love my son and my people. However, even after sitting on the throne, there will only be nothing left of me.” Duan Chengrui sighed lightly as if he was treating Chang Yiqin as Gu Pingyan, and he spoke in a low voice: ”But her circumstances are clearly similar to mine, yet she's constantly moving about day after day. Not only is she enviable, but it also makes people wish they could gift all the good things in the world to her. I just want to see if she will look back at me in the future …”

Before he finished speaking, the clarity in Duan Chengrui's eyes abruptly lit up, and the voice abruptly stopped as well.

Chang Yiqin's body shrunk slightly as her tears fell as well. ”Then what did you get …”

”Of course I get a lot. ”It's not the glaring sun that is like Royal Uncle. Just the half bit of spring in that person's eyes is enough to let me spend my entire life.” Duan Chengrui retracted his hand and carried the cup over, yet he didn't drink it for a long time.

Yue Qing had never really set foot into the heart of his highness.

She muddle-headedly left the second floor of the house and ran into the porcelain seal under the eaves. She knew that she could hear everything clearly from the outside, so she couldn't help but feel curious. ”Your Highness … His Highness is a bit strange …”

”The strange thing is that you, Your Highness, only fell in love with that touch of spring, but you insisted on asking him how he really liked that spring day.” ”Since you are not one of His Highness' men of the heart, why would you insist on crashing into the south wall? If you wait for the spring to dim, it would not be too late for you to take another half a lifetime.”

”Don't you think about why, among us sisters, you're the only one who's become His Highness' pillow man.” Even if Your Highness had not discovered it yet, you should have. ” Finished speaking, Feng Zhu could only let out a long sigh.

Yue Qing just stood there, not knowing what to do.

Duan Chengrui had raised many of those girls, so why would he allow her to stay by his pillow alone?
