120 Zhou Shengs and Ning Fus Thoughts (1/2)

Zhou Sheng himself had cut-off all ties with the Li family and when his father and elder brother had cursed him a fool and a white-eyed wolf for helping outsiders to destroy his own family, he had wondered if the people he had treated as his own had really ever known him or if he had ever really known their blackened hearts.

The last straw for him had been when his father had callously evicted him from the Li Residence when he had gone for Princess's first death anniversary.

His entire life he had grieved for his best friend, grieved for the part his family had played in her demise.

The first time he had met her when she was running away from those kidnappers all those years ago; his heart had skipped like he had found the reason and goal of life.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.

He had always secretly wished to be the one to bring her utmost joy and happiness.

He had always wanted to be the one who she would grace with her heart-warming smiles.

However, he had spent the rest of his life after her death grieving for the fact that his blood relatives had been the ones to snuff out that brilliant spark of life.

That more than anything else had made him realise that Zixi - Young Master Qin was a far better person than he could ever hope to be and see a glimpse of what Princess must have seen in that staunch man.

However, what left him feeling perplexed was that though Princess and he were here, Zixi - the one person that Princes longed for wasn't here with them.

Occasionally, he wondered what could have been if there was no Zixi.

If in the modern world, it had been just him and Princess.

Would he have been able to win her heart?

Would he have been able to let her lower the walls around her heart?

Would he have been let into her inner world that she always seemed to hide from everyone?

He always felt his heart wreaked like the pieces of a shattered glass whenever he thought about the last few hours of her life, the decisions she had made without a moment's thought to her well-being and wondered what it would be like to bask in that kind of love and care.

If...

Sadly, these thoughts were just the figments of his imagination because she had already given away her heart to someone else.

But still, sometimes Zhou Sheng thought about Zixi's absence and thought that if he didn't see the other person in this lifetime and if he had the luck to accompany Princess in another lifetime, maybe he would make a play for her heart.

Maybe, by then the sting of her loss would have lessened and she would give him a chance.

Lost in his thoughts, Zhou Sheng left the Imperial Palace without bothering to greet his brother.
