Shen Changge hurriedly took two steps back, widened the distance between him and Qu Wanru, cleared his throat and said, "Miss Qu, you calm down first." ”

Qu Wanru hurriedly approached her, with a little eagerness in his expression: "Your Highness, I am very calm. I have also made a great determination to say these words, please allow me to finish the words, otherwise, I am afraid that there are some words that I will not be able to say for the rest of my life. ”

Her eyes were full of requests, which made Shen Changge unbearable to refuse, and finally had to nod: "Say it." ”

Qu Wanru secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said softly: "Your Highness, do you remember the first time we met in Jinzhou?" At that time, I was attracted by His Highness's talents, but I only admired His Highness, but after His Highness left Jinzhou, I would always think of His Highness unconsciously. But at that time, I didn't know your identity, Your Highness, and I thought that I would probably never see each other again in this life. ”

Speaking of this, she let out a long sigh of relief: "But when I returned to the Imperial City, I didn't expect to see His Highness again, not to mention how happy I was at that time." Later, I realized that I was in love with His Highness, so I thought about His Highness for a long time. ”

As she spoke, she looked up at Shen Changge with a gentle smile on her face: "But I don't dare to show my heart to His Highness, I'm afraid that His Highness will reject me, and I'm even more afraid that His Highness will think that I'm not reserved enough and don't respect myself." It wasn't until the emperor decreed that His Highness would marry him, and I knew that if I didn't fight for something, I was afraid that I would miss it forever, so I made up my mind to inform His Highness of my intentions, even if His Highness finally rejected me. ”

After a slight pause, she raised a bright smile, looked at her firmly, and said sincerely: "Your Highness, I like you, I want to marry you." ”

Her eyes were too sincere, so that Shen Changge really couldn't bear to refuse, and didn't want to disappoint her.

But she had to refuse.

"Miss Qu, I am deeply honored and grateful to be liked by you." Taking a deep breath, Shen Changge said solemnly, "But I'm sorry, I can't give you the response you want, I can't marry you." ”

Qu Wanru seemed to expect her to say this, but there was still unconcealable sadness in her expression, but she tried her best to pretend that she was fine, and forced out a slightly stiff smile.

"Your Highness, can you tell me why?"

Shen Changge didn't dare to meet her gaze, dodged her gaze, and said hesitantly: "I like men." ”

This answer surprised Qu Wanru, the smile on her face became more and more stiff, and she looked at her in disbelief.

"Your Highness, what did you say? You...... Like men? ”

Shen Changge nodded.

Qu Wanru still found it difficult to accept: "How could it be? Your Highness, you are so gentle, so easy-going, and very considerate to girls, how can you like men? ”

"It doesn't conflict with my love for men." Shen Changge said calmly, "Miss Qu, thank you for your kindness, I'm sorry for disappointing you." ”

Qu Wanru hurriedly shook his head and said, "Your Highness doesn't need to apologize, it's me who is too willful." In order not to leave any regrets for himself, and regardless of whether it will cause trouble to His Highness, he said those words on his own initiative, hoping that he would not cause trouble to His Highness. ”

"Of course not." Shen Changge smiled, "Miss Qu is so understanding, I'm sure you will definitely find someone who is really suitable for you." I bless you. ”

Raising his head and meeting her sincere gaze, Qu Wanru couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips: "I also bless Your Highness." ”

Being rejected by His Highness, there is no sadness and no regret in my heart, that is impossible.

But so what?

Can she still force it?

What's more, His Highness also made it clear that he likes men, and it is even more impossible for her to force His Highness to accept her.

Instead of being hated by His Highness, she might as well simply bless His Highness, at least, to leave a good impression on His Highness.

Putting away her thoughts, she asked tentatively, "Your Highness, you told me the secret that you like men, aren't you afraid that I will tell them?" ”

"Would you say?" Shen Changge didn't answer the rhetorical question.

Qu Wanru shook his head very resolutely: "No." ”

"That's why I'll tell you." Shen Changge said with a smile.

So, is it because Your Highness trusts her?

Even though she was rejected, she still had an unconcealable joy in her heart.

At least, she was trusted by His Highness.

……

After finishing a day's schoolwork, Shen Changge couldn't hide his exhaustion and left Tai Academy.

During the period of recuperation in the palace, she was raised a lot of squeamishness, and she felt very tired after just a day's lessons.

It seems that she has to practice diligently and adjust her form back in time.

So she refused to take the carriage back to the palace, and chose to walk back.

On the noisy street, she walked around from time to time, but she was not in a hurry to return to the palace.

Passing by a jade shop, she stepped in and looked down the counter at the jade inside.

The color of these jades is very good, and after looking around, she took a fancy to a piece of black jade, so she asked the boss to take it out and look at it carefully.

She planned to carve this black jade into a jade pendant and give it to Shen Yiqing, but when she was about to buy this black jade, she suddenly remembered that he already had a jade pendant.

The jade pendant was left by his mother before her death, and he had been wearing it since he told her the origin of the jade pendant.

Since he already has a jade pendant to wear, she still hasn't given him a jade pendant anymore.

If he was wearing an ordinary jade pendant, let him change it into the one she gave him.

But his jade pendant was left by his mother, and she couldn't let him stop wearing it, right?

Thinking like this, she put down the piece of black jade and turned to leave the shop.

Who knows, as soon as she walked out of the store, she heard a delicate, crispy, and numb familiar voice behind her.

"Little brother!"

Even if she didn't see anyone, just by listening to this title, she knew who else could be the person who called her, besides Qingdai?

Sure enough, the next moment, she saw Qing Dai running towards her in a hurry, not giving her a chance to dodge, she threw herself directly into her arms, and hugged her tightly with both arms.

"Qingdai, you let go!" Shen Changge frowned helplessly and struggled hard, "This is on the street, so many people are watching." ”

"Then let's go to a place where no one is and continue to hug." Qing Dai said, grabbing her hand and leaving.

Shen Changge shook off her hand vigorously and said unhappily: "Qingdai, don't make trouble!" ”

"I didn't make a fuss!" Qingdai looked at her aggrievedly, "Do people miss you, I haven't seen my little brother for so long, and no one is allowed to miss you?" ”

Shen Changge suddenly got goosebumps.

Fortunately, at this time, Bai Luo, Hua Wushuang and Yun Mad stepped forward, and Bai Luo stopped Qing Dai's commotion in time and successfully rescued Shen Changge.
