Chapter 204: The Truth Hurts
A full moon rose outside the door, Xiao Yubai lowered his head and listened quietly to my crying over and over again, my eyes were blurred with tears, my heart was like ashes, and the hand that clasped his sleeve spasmed unnaturally.
"Why didn't you speak?"
"Why?"
I lowered my head to myself, slowly loosened the sleeves of Xiao Yubai's shirt, and walked into the house with a sour heart, thinking as I walked, the cry of the weak will only make people look down on me more, who do I beg for?
The Emperor of Heaven is my father, and Xiao Yubai is my lover, but they chose to hide it from me at the beginning, my heart trembles with pain, Emperor Ming Ming, in front of so many heavenly soldiers and generals, you personally said that you would release the queen mother.
But why did he go behind his back and imprison the queen mother?
What if I don't admit it, when I see the direction indicated by the Immortal Mirror, it's not that I don't know, but I just don't want to think about it, I don't want to guess, I don't want to think deeply, what is the Emperor imprisoning the Queen Mother for?
"What are you two still standing there doing! Don't wait for the fairy to rest! Xiao Yubai, who was standing at the door, turned his head and snorted coldly at the people outside the door.
Followed by Ah Xiang and Ah Yu, Ah Xiang went to make the bed, Ah Yu came over and put his arm around me, his eyes were red, and his eyes flashed with a touch of sadness when he looked at me.
I looked up at Xiao Yubai, "Don't go, can you stay here tonight?" Ayu pinched my arm in panic and glared at me sharply, "Fairy? ”
But Xiao Yubai was stunned for a moment, and soon returned to normal, his eyes fell on my face, and under the moonlight, I saw that his eyes were dark and clear without impurities, "Do you know what you're talking about?" Do you know that the current Emperor of Heaven does not know about your marriage contract with this monarch, but if this monarch stays with you tonight, the Emperor will know about it the next day. ”
"I know what I'm doing, so you stay."
I patted Ayu's stiff hand, turned to her and Axiang and said, "Okay, you two stand down." ”
Ayu's mouth opened, looked at me, turned her head to look at Xiao Yubai who was standing by the door, and finally lowered her head, tightened the corners of her clothes, and was silent.
I turned my head to look at Ah Xiang as if she didn't hear it, and my hand was still pulling at the quilt, stretching the quilt even more widely.
"Ah Xiang."
I spoke again.
Ah Xiang stretched the hand of the quilt for a moment, her body stiffened for a while, and then slowly turned her head to look at me, "Fairy, you ......"
"Go down."
I suppressed all the pain so that my voice didn't sound undulating.
When Ah Xiang and Ayu stepped back and the door slowly closed from behind Xiao Yubai, I had a moment of swaying. Watching Xiao Yubai slowly approach me, his eyes were dark, like thick ink that could not be dissolved.
"Do you know what you're doing? You could have escaped from Benjun, but after tonight, you can't escape anymore. ”
I clenched my fists and looked up to meet Xiao Yubai's eyes, "What the hell are you going to do!" ”
Xiao Yubai walked to the table, sat down, looked up at me who was still standing stupidly on the side, and smiled faintly, "Why do you say this?" I don't know what you're talking about? ”
"Xiao Yubai, why are you willing to take me to see the queen of heaven!"
Standing next to Xiao Yubai, I felt the endless coldness from Xiao Yubai's body piercing my hairs stand on end, but Xiao Yubai calmly picked up the teapot on the table, and then turned over two teacups, one was placed near the table near me, and the other was placed in front of him.
Then he filled the teacup next to me with seven points full of tea before adding a cup of tea for himself, "How did you know that Benjun has so much power and can take you to see the Queen of Heaven?" ”
He picked up the teacup, took a sip, then put it down and gave me a faint look.
There was a faint chill floating in the air, I don't know if it was emanating from Xiao Yubai's body, or a cold wind blowing in from the unclosed window.
"I'm just going to ask you one question."
My face was flushed, my hands were wet with sweat, I held my head high, gritted my teeth and glared at Xiao Yubai, "Why did the Emperor of Heaven imprison the Queen of Heaven?" ”
Where is the man who pretended to be the Emperor of Heaven? Is he still alive?
Countless questions swirled in my heart, but I only dared to ask only one question, for fear that Xiao Yubai would not even answer any of them if I asked too many questions.
Xiao Yubai didn't respond to me, holding the teacup, looking at my pale face through the little white mist, and then took a sip of tea, "Xiaofan, there are some things that you can't control, and you can't manage." The mysterious man who took care of the mountain and forest is right, the truth is often very hurtful. ”
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, "I'm not afraid of hurting people, I just want the truth!" ”
"Okay." Xiao Yubai held the teacup for a moment, and then raised his eyes to look at me, "The night is very long, so Benjun will slowly talk to you." ”
"Tell me." I took a step back and sat down on the bed.
Time passed little by little, and Xiao Yubai's voice slid low past my ears like a flowing stream, telling an earth-shattering story in a low and calm voice.
Until the red light flashed outside the window, a touch of red sun was like a furnace of boiling molten steel, spraying out, crystal dazzling. When the slightly open window shone in ten thousand rays of light, Xiao Yubai paused, and turned his head to look at the sun outside the window, bringing a trace of blood-red light waves in the miserable whiteness.
"It's dawn, are you ready?" Xiao Yubai stood up, walked to the window and pushed it open, and the slightly sweet fragrance of peach blossoms wafted in with the wind.
I sat on the bed, crystal tears, like pearls with broken threads, rolling down my cheeks, and my heart was as distressed as a knife, why is this happening?
My thoughts formed a net messily, and the net became tighter and tighter, reaching my heart, and I felt a faint ache for a while, until Xiao Yubai's sentence 'It's dawn' that I recovered some of my consciousness.
"Why did you go to the Realm of Chaos to save me?"
"Eldest sister Tianxin Fairy Jane died because of me, why do you want to save me?"
"I don't understand...... Why? ”
Seeing Xiao Yubai's hand on the door, and was about to push the door out, I raised my tired head, my eyes were blurry, and I couldn't see Xiao Yubai's expression clearly.
After last night, I knew that the fairy tales in my memory had slowly melted.
"Benjun once promised her to take care of your sister."
"Then everything you did to me when I was on earth lied to me?" My eyes were hazy, and my heart was like a knife.
"That's for the person who pretended to be the Emperor of Heaven, otherwise how could he believe that this monarch helped you go to the world to eliminate the debts on your body because he loves you?" Xiao Yubai turned around, and there was no trace of enthusiasm in his expression.
I wanted to cry, but I didn't know how to cry anymore.
Therefore, Xiao Yubai's real purpose in going to the world is just to secretly check whether I have contact with the heart-digging person?
He approached me firstly to promise the eldest sister Tianxin to take care of me, and secondly to investigate the heart-digging person and avenge the eldest sister Tianxin.
This would explain why he would be hot and cold to me in the human world.
It turns out that from the very beginning, I have been the stand-in for the eldest sister Tianxin, Xiao Yubai likes the eldest sister Tianxin, and the love between the two of them turned out to be childhood sweethearts, the innocence of the two little guesses. (To be continued.) )
