Chapter 156: Grief
The silent Dragon Palace trapped me like a huge net, and as I sat on the bed, Xiao Ziling's tenderness for me kept emerging in front of my eyes, and why all the smiling faces and concerns became illusions in the end. "Ya * Wen * Yan * Love * First * Hair"
The baby in my belly seemed to feel my sadness, he moved gently, and I covered it with my hand, feeling the comfort that this little life brought me. I think that this little guy has been here for more than eight months now, and he will come to the world soon, but I am not ready for her arrival, not to mention that when the time comes, will Xiao Ziling still allow me to give birth to him?
I heard footsteps coming from the silence, and immediately wiped away my tears, covered myself with the covers, and lay down. I leaned inside and buried my face under the covers to keep no one from noticing my abnormality.
The other side of the bed was deeply sunk in, and I was wrapped in the quilt and remained motionless, as if I had really fallen asleep. The man's hand was over my hair, combing it back and forth.
I tried to restrain my emotions, and the quilt covering my face was completely soaked with tears. Xiao Ziling, from now on, what kind of feelings should I use to face you?
The hands eventually stopped, and the man I couldn't face eventually chose to leave. When the heavy palace door was gently closed, my heart closed with it.
Before dawn, I went back to the Yanbo Hall by myself, I didn't dare to stay alone in the Dragon Hall for too long, there were too many memories between me and him, I was afraid that I would be uncontrollable to go to him for questioning, I was afraid that I would believe the tender and sweet words he gave me.
At noon the next day, Yeyao returned. Looking at her with a tired face, I deeply felt that I really owed her a lot. When she showed me what she had brought back, I was in utter despair.
It was a small wooden box, and I picked it up and looked at it closely, and although the chains looked the same as mine, the purple bead was ordinary plastic, and there was no mechanism on it.
I remember that Zhao Ke also gave me the same thing, I put them together with the jewelry in order to keep such an important thing, thinking of this, I quickly poured the jewelry out of the box, and finally found it in the dark compartment at the bottom.
I picked up the chain and compared it with the one that Ye Yao brought back, it was exactly the same, and finally knew the true purpose of the contract that Zhao Ke wanted me to make.
It turned out that he accepted me and flattered me just to get my bracelet, and he must have known that Xiao Ziling was unreliable, so he planned to contact me personally and gain my trust, so as to help him return to modern times.
It's just that one thing I don't understand is that since he is a modern person, he should have the same things as me, is it because his bracelet is also broken?
Seeing me staring at the bracelet in a daze, Ye Yao pulled me and said, "I also heard that your sister is not doing well in the palace." β
I was prepared, but I couldn't help but panic.
"Can you take me to her?" I asked.
Ye Yao shook her head, she told me that she had tried to sneak into the palace several times, but because the garrison was too tight, in order not to startle the snake, she had to come back first, and then make another plan.
I nodded and asked, "Where is Yunxi?" β
Ye Yao looked at me and said coldly: "Now you are too much to protect yourself, and you still care about the safety of others!" β
"Yun Xi has helped me so much, I can't ignore her life and death."
"I'll tell you the truth, I didn't kidnap her at all, and I don't know where she went." Ye Yao sat on the stool, and the expression on his face seemed to say, believe it or not, this is the truth.
Ye Yao can't disappear like this for no reason, there must be some reason, but what is it? I thought about it for a while, and there was nothing else in my mind except the name Xiao Ziling. If this matter is really done by him, then Yun Xi must have done something unfavorable to him, should I go to Xiao Ziling to ask this matter clearly.
"What are you thinking?" Seeing that I didn't speak for a long time, Ye Yao asked.
I shook my head silently, put away the things scattered on the table, told Ye Yao not to talk about it, and then sent Ye Yao away on the grounds that I was tired, and I stayed alone in the house.
Yunxi, where the hell are you? If you hear me calling, give me a hint! I whispered in my heart. Probably because Yun Xi and I really reached the state of spiritual connection, something suddenly flew in from the window, and it happened to fly in front of me, I subconsciously reached out and took it, it was a ball of paper that was crumpled into a ball.
I hurriedly walked to the window and looked at it, but there was nothing but a pool of turquoise water. Open the note, and there is a line written in blood: Help me.
That's Yunxi's handwriting! I recognized it at once, and saw that the blood had dried up and turned a dark red color. Those two words clung to my heart like vines, and made me panic all at once.
"Night Yao! Night away! I shouted in the room, and a few people rushed in, but there was no one in them. I pushed them away and frantically called Ye Yao's name, but it was Xiao Ziling who came to respond to me.
"Get out of the way!" I looked at him coldly, trying to push him away from my way.
"You all go down." Xiao Ziling waved his hand, and all those palace people had already retreated. I saw that he still had his hand in front of me, and I bit it without thinking about it. I bit hard, but he still wouldn't let go, and in desperation, I had to let go and stare at him.
"Where did you lock Yunxi up?"
"Yunxi?" He thought back for a moment, "You mean the palace maid who has been with you all this time?" β
"That's right! Tell me, where the hell is she locked up by you? β
"......" The silence was mixed with restless restlessness, Xiao Ziling's eyes were dodging, he turned his body back, and whispered, "Do you know who she is?" β
"She's a good sister to mine!" I yelled at him, then rushed up to him and glared at him, "Tell me, where the hell did you get her?" β
"Dead!" The cold, unforgiving voice shattered the last of my inner wings, and I took a few steps back, the blinding sunlight blurring his outline.
"Dead? Deadβ" I muttered, leaning back as I kept leaning back. That lively cloud disappeared from my life like this, how could he hurt the people around me again and again, why didn't he even leave me a single one to talk to?
