Chapter 483: Killing Deserves a Punished Heart
she saw him, she deliberately applied a special fragrance. That kind of smell was addictive if you smelled it too much!"Song'er, can I" Qian Sichin walked up to her, gently cupping her face, his brea...“It was my willing choice. You needn’t be like this.” Chu Tianqi lightly pursed her lips, the disdain that often flickered in her eyes, he wasn’t oblivious to it. He just didn’t regret it, because it was the only thing he could do for Ge’er.
“Brother, in fact, you did all this for Ge’er. You clearly care so much for her, why don’t you tell her You’ve done so much for her, that prince hasn’t done anything for her at all. It’s just because he is a high and mighty prince that Ge’er would choose him. You should tell Ge’er how much you’ve sacrificed for her. If she knew, she would definitely return to your side.” Xiao Yufu’s words were veiled in saying that Xiao Yuge was infatuated with vanity and greedily coveted wealth and glory, which is why she accepted the prince.
“F’er, I only have fraternal affection for Ge’er. Don’t speculate randomly and ruin Ge’er’s reputation!” Chu Tianqi knew that he was no match for Ge’er now, so naturally, there would be no inappropriate thoughts. His only wish: Ge’er could be happy in this life!
"Sibling affection Brother, I'm also your sister. You once cared for me just as much, but you never thought of having anything more with me, did you But when facing Ge'er, brother, you truly should take a good look at the love swirling in your eyes. You deceive others, you deceive yourself, don't you"Xiao Yufu, who had long been aware of romantic love, naturally saw through how much Chu Tianqi cared for Ge'er. He didn't say anything, so she would expose it!
Her words struck Chu Tianqi's heart like a blunt hammer. He looked up at the sky, slowly closing his eyes: Yes, he cared so much for Ge'er, even to the point of dying for her. He had also planned their future, fantasizing about sunset walks where she would smile softly at him, and envisioning them walking hand-in-hand on a path lined with fallen leaves in their twilight years...
When did he start to care about her Perhaps it was when she beamed with joy as she presented him with the sword, or maybe it was when she, wounded and battered, returned from the cliffside with herbs for him. Or perhaps it was when she came back from Heavenly Wolf Mountain, sobbing in his arms like a child...
Every smile and frown of hers was like a brand imprinted on his heart. Every lonely night, he would bring it out and relive it, comforting his wounded heart. He had killed Loulan, her best friend, in front of her very eyes. He knew she harbored resentment and hatred for him. Now, with his broken body, he felt unworthy of her love. So he could only bury that unspoken love deep within his heart.
But Xiao Yufu just happened to stir it up, making him taste the agony once again!
"Brother, you've done so much for her, why don't you fight for yourself Maybe Ge'er has feelings for you too Are you really going to marry that Lu Miss" Xiao Yufu felt that no matter who Xiao Yuge married or was pursued by, as long as she didn't compete with him for Si Chen gege, it would be fine.
Chu Tianqi remained silent, perhaps Xiao Yu's words had shaken him a little. Miss Lu wasn't bad, and he didn't dislike her limp, it was just... he didn't have feelings for her, so he couldn't marry her.
"Brother, you dare not go and say it, I will go tell Ge'er!" Xiao Yu Fu pretended to stand up.
"F'er!" Chu Tianqi instinctively grabbed her: "Don't go! I... am no longer worthy of Ge'er!"
"You're doing this for her, aren't you Doesn't she even have a shred of gratitude" Xiao Yufu tried her best to persuade him to pester Ge'er.
"Brother, sister"
Perhaps it was just a coincidence, that Xiao Yuge happened to be there at that moment.
"Ge'er!" Upon seeing Ge'er, Chu Tianqi sprang to his feet, wanting to walk over, but he was abruptly stopped by Xiao Yufu's previous words.
"Song'er, my brother and I were just talking about you, and here you are." Xiao Yufu was unusually enthusiastic, stepping forward to greet her, even reaching out to take Xiao Songge's arm.
Xiao Yu Ge wasn't interested in playing any sisterly drama with her, so she effortlessly dodged her hand and walked straight towards Chu Tian Qi: "Brother, what are you doing here Your face doesn't look good. Where are you feeling unwell Let me take a look." Then, she reached out to feel his wrist pulse.
Chu Tianqi subconsciously retracted his hand behind him and shook his head: "Ge'er, I'm fine."
Xiao Yuge saw him avoid her gaze, and didn't press him. She paused for a moment with her hand outstretched, then slowly withdrew it. With a puzzled expression, she asked, "Brother, what are you and sister doing here"
"That's like..."
Chu Tianqi was just about to explain, but Xiao Yufu interrupted him: "Ge'er, my brother and I were just talking about you. Brother..."
"Fu'er!" Unexpectedly, Chu Tianqi suddenly called out to her in a loud voice, and motioned to Zhao Si: "Zhao Si, escort the County Princess back home!"
"Yes! Master!"
"Alright then, I won't disturb Brother and Ge'er anymore. You two have a good chat." Xiao Yu-Fu gave them a meaningful look after which she left with Zhao Si.
“Brother, these past few days I went back to the Xiangfu to see Mother, but I couldn’t find you. Are you busy with government affairs” Xiao Yuge knew that these two people were together, they definitely wouldn’t be talking about anything good. She wasn't bothered to delve deeper; anyway, she knew that Chu Tianqi would never harm her with Xiao Yufei now, and that was enough.
"It's a bit..." Chu Tianqi felt bitterness in his heart. He didn't dare tell her that every time he went back, he watched her leaving figure from afar. If it were before, he would definitely chase after her to keep her, or walk with her. But now, he had become one-eyed. Walking with such a beautiful woman, those strange looks, and the pointing behind his back, he couldn't accept them, so he could only hide every time.
The more this happened, the stronger his love for her became. It grew to the point where just seeing her filled him with joy, a joy so intense that he yearned to hold her close like he used to...
There was a bit of awkwardness in the air, and after a moment of silence, Chu Tianqi spoke again: "Ge'er, does your wound still hurt" He knew that even if it looked fine on the outside, the rainy weather would still make the wound ache.
"It doesn't hurt anymore, it's been healed for a long time." Xiao Yuge unconsciously patted her chest.
Chu Tianqi instantly became nervous and hurriedly stopped her, "Ge'er, don't!"
"Don't worry, it's all settled!" Xiao Yu Ge smiled at him, her eyes sparkling with confidence and unconcern.
"It seems that Lord Wang has taken good care of you..." Chu Tianqi tried his best to squeeze out a smile, but couldn't hide the melancholy in his eyes. If it were him, he could take care of her well too, right
"Well, he's the best person in the world for singing." Xiao Yuge's eyes held a shy smile: "Just like my brother used to be!" To praise another man in front of him, perhaps he would be more uncomfortable.
Killers deserve to be punished! Don't they closely, I can't get anything out there..."Zhang Qian narrowed her black eyes, staring intently at Liu Lian and asked, "Liu Lian, do you still not trust me Tell me where you hid the salt, and I'll ma...
