I can't remember how I got back to my room. With a trace of residual lucidity, Ning Yue locked the door tightly, and then fell weakly to the bed, allowing the tears that she had endured for a long time to flow freely. Didn't she already bury her heart for him? In that case, why is he so grieved by the figure that resembles him? In the past, she was always concerned about the disparity in their status, thinking that this was the only reason why she did not dare to talk about dreams. But even though there was little hope, she never could restrain herself from secretly hoping that he might not care about the world's eyes, or that one day Lord Shangshu would let her recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors, although she was a concubine, she could barely be regarded as a famous family. It wasn't until her background was revealed that she fully understood that God had never given her delusional qualifications. Don't say anything about the beauty of everyone, she is not even a native of the Song Kingdom, how can the side of the prince of the Great Song Dynasty accommodate her? Although he once said that he would stay with me for the rest of his life, but he didn't know it at that time, how could he count? The ending shouldn't have been like this, it's just providence. Thinking of An Ruiqi's determination, thinking of the tips he gave her, and thinking that she had nothing to do with him, Ning Yue's heart was torn to pieces. She buried her head in the pillow, unable to sob.

The bitterness that had accumulated over the past few days came flooding up, and the sharp pain in her heart made her breathless. After several degrees of fainting, when she woke up again, it was already five watches. Another sleepless night. Ning Yue reluctantly sat up on the edge of the bed, looked at herself in the bronze mirror not far from the bed, and couldn't help but smile sadly. My face is even more haggard than in prison, so it's no wonder that my wife and the big boss pay special attention to my diet, probably because they are afraid that I will not adapt to the water and soil. Thinking of this, Ning Yue felt a warm current seeping into his heart, and his cold body and mind regained some strength through this. She bothered and prepared to comb her hair and change her clothes, but she was caught by the embroidered brocade quilt full of tears. It would be a waste for her to use such a good thing. Ning Yue sighed softly. Although she didn't know the reason, she didn't know how hard Zhan Long was for her. It's a pity that she still can't forget An Ruiqi, and she probably won't forget it for the rest of her life...... It's so painful to wait, especially to wait for someone who will never be able to respond to you. It's sad to waste time and get nothing. It seems that only his own departure is the best for him, and this trip is better as soon as possible, and there can be no hesitation, just like An Ruiqi did to her.

I was thinking hard about how to say goodbye to the war dragon, and in a blink of an eye, it was already dawn. After freshening up, Ning Yue walked to the kitchen to help prepare breakfast, but was politely rejected by the chef. "The girl is the young master's guest, how can she do such rough work...... I can't do it...... "Master, please rest assured, I used to work as a helper in a large family's house, although I was not good at learning, but it was not a bad thing....... "The girl misunderstood, the villain didn't mean that, it's just that if the young master knows......" The chef scratched his head and said with a sad face: "I can't help it...... I can't do it...... The girl should go to the side hall and wait, breakfast will be good immediately! "Ning Yue originally wanted to repay the favor of Zhan Long's containment by helping with the affairs of the house, but no one in the mansion was willing to hand over the matter to her to do, it seems that Zhan Long had already ordered it. Of course, his heart made Ning Yue grateful, but in this way, the guilt in her heart increased a little. I am afraid that his kindness to himself will not be repaid in this life, and if there is an afterlife, I hope I don't have to bear him again......

As soon as the hour came, the lady and the old housekeeper arrived as scheduled, and Ning Yue hurriedly got up to greet her. As usual, the war dragon greeted his wife before all the dishes were served, and then took his seat. "The bad habit of snooze won't be able to be changed for a while." After finishing speaking, Zhan Long glanced at Ning Yue, unable to hide the smile in his eyes, until Ning Yue smiled back, he remembered to restrain his expression, sat up straight and turned to his wife, bowing his head and lowering his eyes like a child who had made a mistake waiting for a lesson.

"Ah Zhan used to be the most diligent...... Mrs. looked at Zhan Long gently, and said with pity: "But after all, I have been adrift for many years, and it is natural to forget the rules...... It doesn't matter, just change it slowly. ”

"Mother, forgive me." The war dragon raised his head and smiled rawly.

Seeing that the war dragon was very uncomfortable, the lady silently lowered her hand, and her heart was desolate. She had never treated him kindly, so how could she expect him to be close to her...... Fortunately, it was not too late, and she was willing to spend the rest of her life to make up for her past mistakes. Knowing that Zhan Long cared about Ning Yue very much, his wife had the heart to cater to him, so he smiled and said to Ning Yue and said, "Ah Zhan is really rude to snub your guests, Miss Ning is not strange." But the girl got up early, and it was very good. ”

Ning Yue was about to say a few polite words, but was preempted by the war dragon. "Miss Ning and I have an extraordinary friendship, and my mother doesn't have to see her."

Hearing this, Madame's smile deepened, she gently held Ning Yue's hand, and said softly: "Since the girl and Ah Zhan have such affection, then from now on, I will take the liberty of treating the girl as my own family." ”

The warm palm and gentle tone reminded Ning Yue of her mother. Ning Yue suddenly had mixed feelings, and couldn't help but redden. ...... of your own family Will this be her home as long as she stays? Ning Yue desperately suppressed the tremor of his hands, unconsciously looked at the war dragon, and met his burning gaze. The skills of the home and the workshop were all she dreamed of, but could she stop herself from seeing the person in front of her as the person? Or can it withstand the sudden heart-wrenching pain? It's time to wake up, all this is destined not to belong to her, she has to go......

Thinking of this, Ning Yue lowered her eyes sideways, to hide the tears in her eyes, and said with a choked voice: "Mrs. Xie's kindness, it's just that the New Year is approaching, and the little girl is inconvenient to disturb anymore, it's time to say goodbye......"

For a moment, the room was silent, and the chill seeping through the crack in the door seemed to be even stronger.

"Where are you going?" War Dragon's voice became a little cold, and his dark eyes showed a faint sadness.

Wiping away the tears in her eyes, Ning Yue pretended to be happy and replied, "Sister Xiaoyan is waiting for me at home." ”

"The festive season is just around the corner, and it's time to go back and reunite with your family. When I come back after the New Year, I'll ask Ah Zhan to pick you up. Madame stroked Ning Yue's cheek, and just breathed a sigh of relief, but when she saw that Zhan Long pursed her lips and was silent, her face became more and more ugly, and she knew that something was wrong. The food is going to be cold, so let's hurry up and pick up the chopsticks. ”

Everyone has their own hearts, and they don't know what to eat.
