Lin Wanwan didn't know how many unspeakable complex emotions were hidden in Su Jingqian's seemingly playful smile. However, she could clearly see that there was some subtle self-deprecation hidden in his cool lips. meaning.
She stared deeply into his eyes, trying to discern something from them, but found that at this time, his eyes were as deep as thick ink that could not be melted away. They seemed unfathomable, and it was impossible to detect any emotional ups and downs inside.
Her wine-stained red lips slowly formed a beautiful arc, just like the blooming manjus and sandalwoods under the moonlit night, isolated from the world, yet radiant and full of charm.
Su Jingqian's eyebrows moved slightly, and the playful smile on his lips instantly disappeared. He stared at her with a complicated expression, but found that the more charming she smiled, the colder her eyes became. Just like the bright moon in the sky, beautiful but out of reach.
He moved his gaze elsewhere, no longer looking at her. The night mist, as light as blue smoke, seemed to be lingering in his eyes, and there was an undetectable emotion hidden in those deep eyes.
Seeing him avoiding her gaze, Lin Wanwan murmured, "Su Jin, I really don't understand, why you can have so many faces, which one is the real you? It's like, you know me I have the same interest as Luo Huaizhou and brought me to see him. I just want me to make good friends with him and protect him in the future, so that you can do anything without any scruples. Maybe I can also persuade him to accept it. I'll take the fatal blow from your 'soulmate'."
Su Jingqian stared straight ahead in silence, his expression extremely calm, as if there was no disturbance in his heart.
Lin Wanwan picked up the wine jar that he had thrown aside and took a long sip. Her eyes were ethereal and confused, as if she had seen everything, but also seemed at a loss due to confusion. Her expression was unpredictable and complicated.
"When Luo Huaizhou told us that you knew martial arts, I was still a little confused. Logically speaking, with your plan, how could you let others know that a brothel owner knows martial arts? It turns out that you have already found out about this cynical Prince Lu You admire people in the world the most, so you designed such a good show to make him admire you endlessly. And you pretended to leave without leaving your name, just so that he can admire you even more when we meet again in Nanling City in the future, and take this opportunity to Make friends with him. With the amulet of Prince Lu, you can get to know more dignitaries through him and get the information you want from them, and your Xuanji Tower will naturally become famous in Nanling City. The most important thing is that no one has the courage to investigate your Xuanji Tower, because no one would have thought that behind the Xuanji Tower that Prince Lu looks after is the number one assassination pavilion in the world."
Listening to her narrating everything, he just glanced at her lightly, his calm eyes seemed to reveal the indifference that had gone through the vicissitudes of life. When he spoke, he was also calm and calm, "Since you know everything , why bother asking again."
The acquiescence in his words made Lin Wanwan feel mixed emotions in her heart. She raised her eyes to look at him. A few rays of resentment, a bit of confusion and a bit of confusion flashed across her complicated eyes, "So, you Why do you want to hurt and think about how to make up for it at the same time? It's obviously you who is plotting against him, but you still want to protect him."
A trace of sadness flashed across his deep eyes, and then he lowered his eyes and pursed his lips in silence.
After a long silence, he quietly said, "He has a simple mind and is not involved in the court situation, so he shouldn't—"
Before Su Jingqian finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lin Wanwan's clear voice. Her tone was full of sarcasm, and her words were both bitter and mean, "Yes, you also know that Luo Huaizhou is simple-minded. He is still moved by what happened back then. But when you plotted against him, you showed no mercy at all."
"Lin Wanwan, you should know now that you have entered the game. Intrigue and deception are the norm in the chess game. Being kind and soft-hearted will only expose your flaws. One careless move will result in the whole game being lost."
He slowly raised his eyes, and there was a hint of chill in his voice, cold and heavy. An almost cold dark light passed silently from the bottom of his dark eyes, like a sharp blade with cold light, and in the blink of an eye he was gone. Pierced the night.
Lin Wanwan's heart sank, as if falling into an ice cave, a bone-chilling chill spread from the depths of her heart, eroding her limbs and bones. Her star-studded eyes gradually dimmed, like broken streams of light, flashing with unconcealable disappointment as they fell.
"For you, the chess game is more important than anyone else, right? Even if it's someone who has been confiding in you for nearly six years, you can use any means to plan how to destroy other countries and families."
"In this life, there will always be choices."
He stared straight ahead with deep eyes, his expression was indifferent and cold, and the emperor's cold demeanor and inscrutability were fully revealed in him. There was no emotion, only a sense of oppression from above, and the faint sternness in his eyes. .
"So, he deserves to be the one abandoned?" Looking up and seeing the coldness in his eyes, Lin Wanwan's heart seemed to have been severely cut open, and the pain of being swallowed by nightmares in those nights was like a flood. It poured out, carrying the memories of the past, crushing her sad heart again and again.
The heart of an emperor is ultimately thin and shallow.
There was a faint mist in her eyes that could not hide her sadness, revealing a touch of deep hatred. Her lips and teeth trembled slightly uncontrollably. Her voice was extremely soft, but in the endless silence of the night, It seems so clear again.
She asked, "Like, the same as me back then?"
Her voice was not as clear as before, it was very light and soft, with a kind of careful and stubborn temptation, but to him, it was like a sharp knife, which made his heart tremble and he felt a Uncontrollable pain.
He clenched his fingers tightly and felt a surge of blood in his chest. The fishy sweetness rushed up from his throat, and then he could no longer suppress it, and a mouthful of blood dripped down his thin lips.
"Su...Su Jin?!"
Lin Wanwan was stunned for a moment when Su Jingqian suddenly knelt down, clutching his chest. After she realized what she was doing, she immediately supported him and stared at the particularly conspicuous blush under his lips. She frowned and asked, "You...are injured." ?”
"...It's okay." Su Jingqian frowned, a thin layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and his chin and lips were tense, as if he was enduring great pain.
His breathing was heavy and rapid, and his face was extremely pale and translucent, as if he might disappear at any time. Even his usually light red lips had become bloodless. Lin Wanwan's heart suddenly tightened, and she tried to help him up while hurriedly Said: "I will take you to the doctor."
"Where is the doctor on this island?" Su Jingqian felt a little funny when he saw her struggling to hold him. Just when he was about to laugh, his breathing became rapid again. He took several breaths and then said weakly, "Besides, It’s useless to have a doctor, I suffered internal injuries.”
Lin Wanwan tried to pull him up again to no avail, and said breathlessly: "But..."
Before she could finish her words, she lost her balance and fell to the ground. She ignored the pain in her body and hurriedly went to support Su Jingqian.
Su Jingqian sighed very softly, his voice was slightly hoarse, "Stop fussing, help me sit down."
Lin Wanwan supported him and carefully sat him on the ground. She was so tired that she sat down next to him.
Seeing her worried look, the corners of his mouth curved weakly, "Don't worry, I'll just lie down for a while."
"Lie down for a while? But this..." She looked at the weeds on the ground. He was so clean that he refused to sit down just now. Was he planning to just lie down on it?
Su Jingqian looked at her troubled face and felt very funny. He said softly to her: "You don't want me to lie down here? Straighten your legs."
"Huh?" Lin Wanwan was still thinking about whether to find someone to carry him back to the yard. She didn't have time to think too much, so she straightened her legs obediently. Then, in her astonished eyes, she saw that Su Jingqian didn't care. He hesitantly fell onto her lap, closed his eyes, and stopped moving.
"you--"
"Be good, don't move, just let me lie here for a while."
"..."
