Chapter 1972: Released
Yan Bei put down the snack in his hand and looked up at Bo Cixue.
“If he’s testing you, it means that he has feelings for you. I heard that you liked him very much before. Isn’t this a good thing?” Yan Bei was a rough man and did not understand what women thought.
Bo Cixue sat on the ground and hugged her knees, her chin resting on her knees. It was rare for her to not scold him.
Her side profile looked too calm, but it also seemed like it was not.
He heard her calm voice say, “I’ve liked him for eighteen years. Why would he suddenly have feelings for me after three years?”
Yan Bei was speechless. How would he know about that?
“Three years ago, as long as I stayed in the capital, I would have become his Princess Consort.” Bo Cixue’s expression was very quiet, as if she was saying something about others. “There were countless girls who had a crush on him since he was young. As long as he agreed to it, many people would throw themselves at him.”
“He’s arrogant, strong, and cold. He has never been abandoned by a woman before but he was actually abandoned by a woman who liked him for so long three years ago. He must have felt terrible.”
Bo Cixue laughed softly, her clear and black doe eyes seemed to be covered with a thin layer of moisture. “I left without saying anything at that time. After meeting him this time, I didn’t show how much I liked him.”
“No matter how strong and powerful he is, he’s still a man after all. He seems to care a little about me, but he’s just reluctant to be abandoned.”
“I’m not belittling myself. I just feel that if I can’t make him fall for me after 18 years, he probably won’t in this lifetime.”
“Besides, he already carved my words of ‘she’s just a sister’ deep in my heart.”
Yan Bei looked at Bo Cixue and said nothing for a long time.
She looked like she did not care anymore on the surface, but he could feel that she was still sensitive and inferior in this relationship!
She was not as carefree as she appeared.
Yan Bei raised his eyebrows. “Although we haven’t known each for long, I admire you quite a bit. But in this case, you’re really once bitten, twice shy!”
The slightly dazed look on Bo Cixue’s face dissipated. She looked at Yan Bei and smiled lazily. “So what? People seek profits and avoid harm. Why should you get injured again after getting injured once?”
“Besides, if it happens again, not only will our relationship be affected. Even our family’s relationships will be affected.”
Yan Bei hugged the back of her head with both hands and leaned against the wall. “Then are you going to give up just like that? When you see him get married and have children one day, will you really not care?”
“With my personality, I don’t care what happens to him in the future as long as he’s happy right now. Why are you thinking so much? Now that he has a good impression of you, just grab him and separate later on. At most, don’t meet him again. At least you’ll still have memories with him when you’re old.”
Bo Cixue was speechless. What kind of nonsense was this?
“Brother, you’re so easygoing.”
Yan Bei found a blade of grass and put it between his lips. “Of course. I think that those feelings of only liking one person for life is all nonsense. Who can predict what will happen in the future? Why not live in the present? It’s too tiring to live in fear of the future!”
“Besides, I don’t believe that you don’t have any obsession after liking him for eighteen years. Although you’re a woman and he’s a man, his status is high and others treat him like a god. Even if you’re only with him for a few days, you’re the one who’s at the advantage, aren’t you?”
Bo Cixue snorted. “Even if I think so, he might not be willing.”
“How would you know if you don’t try?” Yan Bei straightened up and patted Bo Cixue’s shoulder. “But I have to advise you not to give it your all when you’re together, in case you really get separated one day and feel like dying.”
“Don’t you know what you’re saying? Scram.”
Yan Bei saw that Bo Cixue’s smile had improved and he leaned against the wall again, looking moved. “It’s good that you’ve thought it through. At such a critical time, we still have to rely on him. Don’t offend him anymore.”
Bo Cixue glared at Yan Bei angrily.
After a while, seeing that Bo Cixue was silent, Yan Bei asked in a gossipy manner, “Aren’t you afraid that he and Sikong Shan will get married here?”
“He won’t.”
Yan Bei raised his eyebrows. “Are you that sure?”
“He doesn’t like Sikong Shan.” Bo Cixue thought of the only woman he had feelings for. Sikong Shan definitely could not compare to her.
Yan Bei wanted to ask more, but Bo Cixue waved her hand. “I want to sleep for a while. Stop making so much noise.”
Yan Bei was speechless.
…
Bo Cixue was really asleep. Yan Bei looked at her sleeping face and his mouth twitched.
She really trusted him!
Yan Bei thought of how a leader like him ended up being alone with a woman without any lethality. He really felt that it was embarrassing!
He looked up at the stone roof and sighed.
In the evening, the stone cell door was opened again.
The guard said something.
Yan Bei shook Bo Cixue awake. Bo Cixue had just woken up and there was a trace of confusion in her beautiful and bright doe eyes. Her eyes were like a lake that reflected people’s shadows and they ewre unbelievably beautiful.
Yan Bei cursed softly. “Fortunately, I can resist beauty. You’re too seductive even though you just woke up!”
Bo Cixue did not hear what Yan Bei had said. “What’s wrong?”
“They’re letting us out. Your Highness is quite efficient.”
Bo Cixue and Yan Bei were brought out of the stone jail. Of course, they could only leave the stone jail and could not leave this forest.
The guard brought them to wash their hands before bringing them to a stone house that was decorated in a unique way.
There were several people sitting inside.
The head of the family, Ye Jie, Sikong Shan and two other men were there.
One of the men there was the one who had caught Bo Cixue and Yan Bei.
The patriarch glanced at Bo Cixue and Yan Bei and said to the dark-skinned man, “Lan Er, bring a stool over and let them sit.”
The man called Lan Er got up and looked at Bo Cixue and Yan Bei.
He froze when his gaze landed on Bo Cixue.
Bo Cixue did not ignore the amazement and heat in his eyes.
He said something.
Bo Cixue did not understand him, but the atmosphere in the restaurant became a little strange, Sikong Shan’s expression was especially sour.
Bo Cixue looked at Yan Bei and asked him what the man called Lan Er had said with her eyes.
Yan Bei raised his eyebrows. “He said you’re prettier than Sikong Shan and is the prettiest woman he has ever seen.”
When Sikong Shan heard Yan Bei repeat Lan Er’s words, her expression changed.
Lan Er brought two wooden benches over very quickly. Bo Cixue and Yan Bei sat opposite of Sikong Shan and Ye Jie. Bo Cixue could see Ye Jie the moment she looked up.
