Chapter 17: The Truth Is Belated
These days are like ups and downs in a dream, although sweet but also illusory, Mo Lian herself feels dazed and unreal. Mo Han's sudden change made Mo Lian feel helpless, and now Mo Han was facing Mo Lian. It always gives people the illusion of being treated with the highest level of love for the person they love the most.
But Mo Lian knew better than anyone else that Mo Han didn't love him, and what he liked was always the beautiful and pampered Lord of Twilight. But life is never a script, it can have too much heavy makeup, and it can decorate our stupid delusions with its vulgarity and abruptness.
Therefore, whenever he saw the tenderness rising in Mo Han's eyes, Mo Lian couldn't help but be attracted to him, even if it was such a subtle change, even he didn't know it.
Not wanting to explore why Mo Han had suddenly changed, Mo Lian felt that she was too tired, so tired that she couldn't even soothe this warmth.
"Mo Lian, what are you doing?"
Walking leisurely, the noble Gongxiao Wang Ye came to Yinglian Ju again. Mo Lian raised his eyes to look at him, still light, calm, as if it was a pool of stagnant water.
Mo Lian's voice was gentle, "Young Lord, don't you have to go and see Lord Dusk, I heard that Lord Duge didn't eat today." ”
"Twilight, she's all right......"
Mo Han frowned and replied to Mo Lian, he even felt a little strange, since when did the topic of their discussion only turn on Liu Dugge?
I don't know why, Mo Han suddenly missed Mo Lian many years ago, the spring of that year was bright, and the young man's smile was bright, as if all the dark corners were illuminated in an instant.
However, that bright smile had disappeared from the moment Mo Lian and him returned to Prince Gong's Mansion. Mo Han faintly felt that he would never see Mo Lian's bright smile.
There was a little sour in his heart, and Mo Han knew that he couldn't turn back when he made this choice, so he could only do his best to compensate him in Mo Lian's only time left, yes.
Mo Han kept telling himself in his heart that it was compensation, it should be like this, and there was nothing else between him and Mo Lian besides compensation and the love-hate entanglement of the previous generation. But how to explain the constant sourness in the heart?
Although I don't understand Mo Han's true meaning, Mo Han has been very good to him these days, not at all like the half-truths and half-truths that just came to the palace, nor like the hidden undercurrents in those warm days, very plain, quiet like the dripping water in the lake, although it can't stir up any waves, it also makes Mo Lian feel very gratified.
In just one year, it seems that all the strength of his life has been used up, and Mo Han comes to Yinglian Ju every day, and he is known for cultivating a relationship with Mo Lian. It seemed that he really planned to treat Mo Lian well this time, not only to love him in every way, but also to stop all the dirty transactions that were dancing around.
During this period, Cui Guifei naturally found some trouble, however, these were completely blocked by Mo Han on the grounds that her sister was recuperating at home because she was ill.
Both of them are young and vigorous, although Mo Lian has no intention, but being together for a long time will inevitably lead to misfire, and Mo Lian will never refuse Mo Han's courtship. Compared with before, Mo Han was already much gentler between the beds, and after each time, although the pain in his whole body was still unabated, Mo Lian's spirit was much better than before.
After all, this meant that he wasn't just a tool to be used by Mo Han, at least now Mo Han treated him as a human being.
However, this soft and humble state of mind did not last long, because the last incident cast a shadow on Mo Lian's heart. Therefore, for a long time, Mo Lian no longer appeared in Yinglian Ju for half a step.
On this day, Mo Lian suddenly wanted to go out of the house to walk, and as she walked, she approached Mo Han's residence, panicked in her heart, and even her fingertips kept trembling, and a voice in her heart kept telling him, don't go over, and even the rest of the point will be lost.
But curiosity overshadowed the fear in his heart after all, and before he got close to Mo Lian, he heard Jiang Ye's voice as warm as jade, "Ziyu, stop it, I've seen him in the past two days, Xiaolian, he is so pale like a shadow, if he doesn't stop, he will die!" ”
"What if you're dead? It's a big deal to give him a beautiful funeral, and I will never embarrass a dead person in Prince Gong's Mansion. The cold voice froze the footsteps of the jumper, and Mo Lian silently retreated to the corner.
"Ziyu!!"
It may be that Mo Han is too ruthless, and Jiang Ye's voice is a little annoyed.
On the contrary, Mo Han's voice was a little teasing without a trace, "Xiaoye, you don't really think that I am in love with him, it's so ridiculous, Mo Lian is just a lowly little girl, what qualifications do you have to be worthy of my love?" If it weren't for Twilight, I wouldn't even have looked at him for a single glance. ”
"But, he's your brother......" Jiang Ye's voice carried a trace of forbearance and pity, still the same pilgrim who shone brightly as always.
"Brother?" The cold voice was full of mockery, even if it was invisible, Mo Lian knew that the person's face must be full of disdain at the moment. However, Mo Han's next sentence shattered all his illusions, "I am the concubine of King Gong, I have Mo Xi's purest bloodline, and he is just a bastard born of a lowly woman from the Western Regions who fornicated with others." Even if such a person is given to me as an attendant, I am too cheap! ”
It turned out that everything was nothing but wishful thinking on his own, deceiving himself. stumbled to the worst, but even the only remaining memories were deprived.
Blood spilled from his mouth, staining the white marble steps red. Mo Lian smiled miserably, it turned out that all this was just her own self-inflicted feelings, but Mo Han's acting skills were so good, even if he hated him so much, it seemed to be full of affection......
The naked facts were placed in front of Mo Lian's eyes, and the sharp truth blurred his eyes. Mo Lian stumbled out of the house, her steps were messy, and she didn't know how she returned to Yinglian Ju.
When Hanxiao saw him, the whole person was stunned, the person in front of her with empty eyes, messy steps, and a pale face, where was the gentle and delicate son she was familiar with, with an indifferent smile? Even when she was the most embarrassed, she had never seen Mo Lian like this.
"Childe ......"
Calling out loud, Han Xiao found that Childe's pale blue shirt was a little scarlet, and he shouted anxiously with a smile, "Childe, I'll go to find the little prince." ”
Before he could take a step, he was already grabbed by Mo Lian, Yin Hong's blood-like lips hooked a bleak arc, and Mo Lian's voice was almost broken, "No need......"
"But you ...... Childe"
Seeing that Hanxiao was getting more and more anxious, as if he was about to cry, Mo Lian shook his head and said softly, "Hanxiao, you should step back first, I'm fine, I'm just too tired." ”
Entering the house, overwhelming despair surged in, and the past was replayed in my mind bit by bit.
When he decided to walk out of Yicui Tower, the beautiful woman who was like a father and brother to him had a gloomy eye, as if he had already foreseen his future. Chaos didn't open his mouth to stop him from leaving, just said lightly, "Huang'er, you will regret it, you will definitely regret it." ”
Such an indifferent tone, a faint sadness, and endless melancholy.
By the way, how did you answer at that time?
The young Shanghuang Gongzi had a clear voice and a bright smile, and asked a vague sentence like that, "Confused, have you ever regretted it?" ”
So now, regret it? No, after reaching the end, all the feelings were hollowed out, and it turned out to be so numb that there was nothing left, even the state of mind at that time could not be found.
Mo Lian is not chaotic, he thinks that he can't compare to the chaotic mind and bearing, so he can't do everything for that person without scruples, the picture suddenly turns, a young man with a similar face, his blue eyes are as crystal clear as jade, but he is also sad to the bone, and he said word by word, "Shanghuang, you must not fall in love with that man, remember that you can't!" ”
The sadness of that moment was like a catastrophe......
And now?
I've loved, I've been stupid, I've been hurt, what's left?
Mo Lian, who had empty eyes, suddenly turned her head and rushed out of Yinglian Residence, and even rushed out of Prince Gong's Mansion despite her smiling call.
At this time, it was getting late, Mo Lian stumbled down the street as if she didn't feel anything, and in a trance, she seemed to have bumped into someone, and the person seemed to point at him and scold something, but Mo Lian didn't hear it, and only knew that she stumbled forward.
The man who was hit spat out and scolded, "Crazy." ”
At some point, a light rain began to fall in the gloomy sky, and Mo Lian's whole body was soaked but still walking forward blankly.
"Huang'er?"
He stepped forward and hugged the soaked boy tightly into his arms, and contained his small body under the umbrella.
The beauty smiled with relief, "I've finally found you, my phoenix." ”
I heard the children in the building say that they met Mo Lian on the street and found him a little strange. Regardless of whether this was true or not, he hurriedly picked up an umbrella and ran out into the street, until he saw the pale blue figure on the street.
The swirling embrace is warm and powerful, and the embrace that leaves no gaps is like treating one's most precious treasure.
Mo Lian finally came back to her senses from the confusion, and it took a long time to recognize the person in front of her.
The already exhausted body fell softly into the messy arms, and the messy smile looked at the unguarded child in his arms with a slight smile, and carried him back to Yicui Building.
When Mo Lian opened her eyes again, a different color flashed in her eyes, and it took a long time to realize that this was not the Yinglian Residence where she lived.
Holding up his sore and weak body, he saw the person in front of the bed clearly.
A glimmer of water flashed in his blue eyes, and his voice was no longer as crisp as before, and it was almost inaudible in a low voice, "Confused." ”
The man in front of the bed smiled lightly, and his gentle peach blossom eyes were bent, and he was obviously a simple to the extreme, but his smile was charming to the bones, and he was born to hook his soul.
"You've finally woken up, Huang'er."
The thin eyebrows furrowed slightly, and Mo Lian's eyes were gloomy, "Confused, why do you want to be so good to me." ”
The charming peach blossom eyes hooked, and the heart of the straight sect was also tied to it, and the chaotic voice was evil to the bone, "Who called you my phoenix?" ”
The death-like silence settled between the two, and seeing that Mo Lian didn't answer, she said quietly, "Huang'er, why are you still so self-loving?" Have you forgotten what I told you before? ”
Mo Lian raised her head and looked at the confusion, as if she had returned to the time when she had just come to Yicui Tower. She gently grabbed Mo Lian's emaciated shoulders, and her voice was as gentle as a whisper between lovers, "My phoenix, always has such a short memory." ”
"You obviously know the Tao, people like us should take good care of ourselves. If this heart and this broken body don't even know how to cherish ourselves, then who cares? ”
Mo Lian buried her head in her arms and didn't make any sound, but her messy clothes were wet.
The boy sobbed in his arms, his voice still had a thick nasal voice, "Confused, I know that the way is wrong, I know that the way is wrong......"
