As soon as Yin Tianxing came back, he saw Zheng Zhen carrying his luggage angrily. He hurriedly asked: "Where are you going?"
"Brother Tianxing, it's you." Zheng Zhen said a little disappointed.
"You cried?"
Zheng Zhen wiped his face carelessly, "I'm fine, brother Tianxing, thank you for taking care of me these days, I'm going back now!"
"go back?"
"Yes, I'm ready to go home!"
"No!" Yin Tianxing objected immediately.
"Why not?" Zheng Zhen was unconvinced. "No one wants to see me anyway. They all bully me and want me to leave quickly."
"You can't leave!"
Yin Tianxing snatched Zheng Zhen's luggage without refusal.
"Why?" Zheng Zhen shouted, "You all think that I am troublesome and don't want me to come. You are afraid that I will delay your business. Can't I leave now?"
The more she talked, the more aggrieved she felt.
"At first, you insisted on following me regardless of the danger, and you kept saying that you wouldn't cause any trouble. But now you are clamoring to go back. If not, what else is this?"
"What's the mess?"
"Do you think we will let you go back alone?" Yin Tianxing asked sharply.
Zheng Zhen shook his head.
Anyway, Brother Tianxing definitely won’t, but as for Brother Tianxun, I can’t say for sure.
"If you insist on insisting, I won't be able to rest assured. You know how busy I am, and now I have to worry about you. Do you think this is causing trouble for me? If something happens, I will never feel at ease in my life. Really. Really, I beg you to stop being so arrogant and do whatever you want."
Zheng Zhen was shaken.
She thought for a while and said, "Okay, I promise you, I won't leave."
At least, there are still people here who are willing to care about themselves.
"What happened?" Yin Tianxing asked.
When this was mentioned, Zheng Zhen began to feel annoyed again.
She told brother Tianxing everything, but he didn't say a word after listening.
"Are they going too far?"
Yin Tianxing shook his head, "It's still your fault."
"I?"
"Yes, it's you."
Why did everyone say she was wrong, even the most reliable brother Tianxing? Zheng Zhen really couldn't accept it!
"They lied to me and said there was something important, but they went to a place like that. What kind of important matter was this? Not only that, they also attacked me because of that woman! Brother Tianxing, I have been wronged, why do you want to do it now?" On their side?"
"I'm just talking about the matter. Zhenzhen, you are so happy!"
"I don't understand!" Zheng Zhen was even more confused. What does this have to do with happiness or not?
"Nothing is without reason. You don't have to worry about anything. Naturally, you don't understand the sufferings in the world. There are still many people in the world who can't even afford the most basic food and clothing. Let's talk about those people in brothels. Most of them are forced to do so. It’s come to this point. You shouldn’t have preconceived ideas and say those insulting things before you understand anything.”
Brother Tianxing was right, maybe she really didn't understand anything.
"And if I were you, no matter how curious or dissatisfied I am, I would never follow them, because I believe in Tianxun and Ah Zai!"
Seeing that Zheng Zhen had begun to reflect, Yin Tianxing persuaded him: "Even if you followed them and knew that they were going to Lichun Courtyard, you shouldn't make trouble unreasonably without knowing anything. That girl is theirs." Friend, where do you put them?"
The anger in Zheng Zhen's heart began to disappear little by little.
It's all her fault for being preconceived and too emotional.
"Then what should I do?" Zheng Zhen asked in a low voice.
Brother Tianxun must really hate her now.
Ever since she came to the Western Region, the distance between her and Brother Tianxun has become farther and farther away. Many times, he would deliberately avoid her, and he even said harsh words today.
"Brother Tianxun said he has nothing to do with me. What does that mean?" Zheng Zhen asked uneasily, "Is he determined to draw a clear line with me?"
"I don't know either."
Yin Tianxing hoped that Zheng Zhen could always be happy. He didn't want to see her like this, but he couldn't judge Tianxun's words arbitrarily.
"It turns out that Brother Tianxing also has something he doesn't know about!" Zheng Zhen said disappointedly.
"I'm not omnipotent."
"But you have always been omnipotent in my heart!"
omnipotent? How can it be!
For Yin Tianxing, Zheng Zhen was too dazzling, it was she who once illuminated his dark world!
"Really, some things can't be forced. I hope you can understand."
Although Zheng Zhen is simple-minded, he also knows what brother Tianxing is referring to.
She had not thought about this issue specifically, but brother Tianxun's words forced her to re-examine their relationship.
She took it for granted that brother Tianxun was hers, but what if he wasn't?
But maybe he was overthinking it, Zheng Zhen, who is optimistic by nature, comforted himself like this.
In short, let’s take one step at a time!
"You should admit your mistake when they come back!" Yin Tianxing ordered.
"good!"
~~~
During dinner, Lin Ran looked at the people and said, "Azai and the fifth prince haven't come back yet?"
"Maybe something has been delayed. You're such an adult now, so don't worry, Aran."
"Um."
Zheng Zhen kept looking out the door, and she became more and more nervous. Why haven't they come back yet?
After waiting and waiting, brother Tianxun finally appeared. He and Lin Zai looked very bad. Zheng Zhen wanted to say something, but he swallowed it back immediately.
After taking a few bites, Lin put down his bowl and chopsticks, "I'm full, I'm going back to the house first."
"I'm full too, you guys eat slowly." Yin Tianxun followed closely.
He and Lin walked out together.
When Zheng Zhen saw this, he quickly said, "I've finished eating."
Then he hurriedly chased after him.
Lin Ran was confused, what happened to these people?
She could sense that her daughter was in a bad mood, so she looked at Tianxing, "What's going on?"
"Master, don't worry about some small things."
Li Ao also advised her: "Let the children solve their own problems. A Ran, you eat more."
"good!"
~~~
Yin Tianxun wanted to chase after Lin Zai to see Lin Zai, but he was grabbed by Zheng Zhen.
She looked at herself with a guilty look on her face, "Brother Tianxun, I'm sorry, I was too reckless. No matter what, I should believe you, and I shouldn't be fooling around without knowing anything. I really know I was wrong. Just forgive me and don’t be angry with me again.”
Yin Tianxun could tell that she sincerely admitted her mistake, but when he thought about what Lin Zaitong said to him on the way back, he didn't say as kind words to Zhenzhen as usual.
After they left Li Chun Yuan, he kept apologizing to Lin Zai, but she always refused to pay attention.
This was not his fault, so why did Lin Zai insist on getting into trouble with him?
Although he was a little annoyed, for some reason he just didn't want Lin Zai to be sulking with him, so he had no choice but to apologize to her endlessly.
Lin Zai finally stopped, "You said before that you would explain it to Miss Zheng, but you didn't say anything. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come to Lichun Court and said those things to Sister Wu Yin!"
Yin Tianxun didn't know how to refute. She had already said this before, and it was only because of her indecision that she had put it off until now.
"It's me who is meddling in other people's business. It has nothing to do with you, but I hope you can take good care of her and don't let her vent her anger on innocent people again!"
You shouldn't have expected anything from him in the first place.
Forget it, I am an outsider, so what right do I have to ask him?
"Ah Zai, I was wrong, I will definitely make it clear!"
"none of my business."
"I'm really sorry, please don't be angry."
No matter how much he apologized, the other party refused to pay attention to him.
It seems that we really can't delay it any longer.
"Zhenzhen, I hope you can listen carefully to the next words!"
Zheng Zhen had a bad feeling.
"I only regard you as my sister. I did it before, now, and in the future. There will be no change!" Zhenzhen's expression became worse and worse, but Yin Tianxun did not waver at all, "Your liking has already caused me a lot of harm." I hope you won’t pester me anymore. You have your own life and you shouldn’t always revolve around me! To be honest, I don’t want to lose you as my sister, but if you are still the same as before, then I can only treat you as a stranger."
She should understand it. If she doesn't understand it yet, there's nothing he can do about it. He will have to be completely cruel when the time comes!
~~~
Zheng Zhen stayed where he was, unable to move for a long time!
Is there really no hope?
Why is brother Tianxun so cruel?
She never thought that Brother Tianxun would not like her, but now she had to accept the fact that Brother Tianxun had no feelings for her at all.
All these years, it was all her wishful thinking!
Zheng really wanted to chase him and ask him what he should do to make him like her!
Maybe one day he will be moved and willing to accept his feelings!
But, she is also a proud person!
After following him to the Western Region but being rejected again and again, how could Zheng Zhen pretend that nothing had happened!
So tired, really tired, she squatted down and buried her face in her legs.
I don't know how long it took, it must have been a long time, before Zheng Zhen thought about standing up.
This is outside, so if others see it, wouldn’t it mean pointing fingers behind your back?
No, she must not let others laugh at her.
Zheng Zhen really wanted to go home, but since she had promised brother Tianxing, she couldn't go back on her word.
I really wish they could get things done sooner so she could get home soon.
Zheng Zhen stood up and turned around, feeling a little frightened.
"Brother Tianxing? When did you come?" she asked hurriedly.
"It's been a while."
"Why is there no sound?"
Brother Tianxing must have seen the embarrassment just now.
Yin Tianxing deliberately looked away, "You were too focused, so you didn't realize I was behind you."
"Um."
Zheng Zhen responded silently.
It would be great if Brother Tianxing had not left the capital, so that he would not have too much contact with Brother Tianxun, let alone be tempted by Brother Tianxun.
It's a pity that there are not so many ifs.
"Here you go!" Yin Tianxing took something out of his arms and handed it to Zheng Zhen.
"Stone?"
"You must think it's ridiculous to carry a stone with you, right?"
Zheng Zhen shook his head.
"Do you remember what I was doing when we first met?"
"Of course I remember. You were counting stones by the river alone."
"This is one of those rocks. I was a child at the time, and everyone around me suddenly avoided me and didn't want to have anything to do with me. I was really lonely, and you were the only one willing to play with me at that time."
"Zhenzhen, you once said that my whole person has changed since I returned to the capital. You also said that I can be cold to others, but I must not be like this to you, right?"
Zheng Zhen nodded!
"Actually, you don't need to say this at all. You gave me warmth when I needed care the most, so I will never be indifferent to you!"
This is the first time that Yin Tianxing confides in Zheng Zhen.
This is also the first time Zheng Zhen has heard brother Tianxing say such words.
Fortunately, Brother Tianxing can be less lonely at that time!
It’s so nice that he can accompany me and comfort me when I’m sad!
Zheng Zhen didn't want to hide brother Tianxing's secret, so he said, "Brother Tianxun just asked me not to pester him any more."
Sure enough, I guessed right, "What are you going to do?"
"How to do it?" Zheng Zhen smiled bitterly, "What can I do? I can't keep pestering him anymore. I also have dignity!"
Yin Tianxing didn't say anything.
Zheng Zhen took his arm and begged: "I want to go home. Brother Tianxing, can you finish the things here quickly and then take me back to the capital!"
"Okay! I promise you!" Seeing Zheng Zhen still frowning, he asked, "Anything else to worry about?"
"To this day they still refuse to tell me why they value that girl so much. I also have the right to know so that I can understand where I went wrong, but they don't want to pay attention to me at all."
As he talked, Zheng Zhen started crying again!
"Don't think so much, go back and rest first, everything will be fine."
"Um."
~~~
Lin was trying to calm down.
Someone knocked on the door, could it be Yin Tianxun again?
She didn't want to open the door, but she was afraid that he would keep knocking and disturbing others.
"Brother?" Lin Zai said in surprise.
"Do you have time?"
"Um."
"Can you tell me what happened today?"
How could eldest brother know? Miss Zheng should have told him.
But it didn't matter. Lin Zai told his elder brother exactly what happened and Sister Wu Yin's life experience.
"I really know that I was wrong. Don't be angry with her anymore."
It turned out that the eldest brother was here to plead for Miss Zheng. Lin felt uncomfortable in his heart, but he still kept smiling, "Okay, I understand."
"Tian Xun also made it clear to Zhenzhen that she is very sad now." Yin Tianxing said specifically.
He had a feeling that Tianxun was very special to Ah Zai.
"He finally said it!" Lin Zai replied calmly: "I told him that since I don't have that intention, I should make it clear as soon as possible, so as not to delay Miss Zheng in the end, which is not good for both of us."
Lin Zai added: "Since you like Miss Zheng, why don't you tell her? Brother, I hope you can be happy, so that I can rest assured when you return to Beijing."
"You can't force your feelings!" Yin Tianxing stared at Lin Zai, "Actually, you don't have to feel that you owe me, let alone do things you don't want to do for me!"
He seems to be able to guess what the little sister is thinking!
"Um."
"It's really good. She is just spoiled, so she doesn't understand many things! Little sister, since she has already made her mistake, I hope you won't be angry because of this matter. At the same time, I also hope you can tell her about it. reason."
"Okay, I understand. I'll go find Miss Zheng in a moment!"
"Thanks!"
"fine."
She will work hard to do whatever her elder brother asks her to do.
~~~
Zheng Zhen was lying in bed very irritable. Could she really do it without pestering brother Tianxun?
I've liked him for so long, how could I just let him go?
She had been hoping that brother Tianxun would come to her and not care about her faults like before.
If he really comes to find me, it means there is still hope for everything!
She really doesn’t want to be just a sister!
Hearing the knock on the door, Zheng Zhen immediately ran to open the door.
"Miss Lin?" She was a little disappointed.
"I want to talk to you!"
"come in!"
Lin Zai sat on the chair and suddenly asked, "Does Miss Zheng still remember Che'er?"
"Of course I remember!"
"The person we went to Lichun Courtyard to visit today is Che'er's sister!"
"What?" Zheng Zhen was shocked.
"Sister Wu Yin was willing to sell herself to Lichun Court in order to prevent Che'er and her mother-in-law from starving! Miss Zheng, do you still remember the library at Che'er's house?"
Zheng Zhen nodded. She had always been confused as to how a poor family could build a library.
"Sister Wu Yin hopes that the children in the village can have a place to study, so she specially built a library. She has always been thinking about others and never uses the money she has saved for herself. My sister thinks that if the children can learn something, You will be successful in the future and escape from poverty!"
Zheng Zhen was speechless.
She was so wrong. She knew nothing and yet she was so self-righteous that she did such an outrageous thing.
"I'm sorry! It's all my fault!"
"I'm not the one you should apologize to. You already know what happened, so I'll leave first!"
"Wait!" Zheng Zhen called her, "Why are you telling me this?"
"If the third prince hadn't come to beg me, I would never come here. Miss Zheng, he really cares about you!"
Zheng Zhen felt warm in her heart. Although Brother Tianxing didn't say anything, he was always worried about himself in his heart!
"Does Miss Zheng have anything else to do?"
Zheng Zhen hesitated for a moment and finally asked: "Brother Tianxun already knew?"
"What?"
"Miss Wu Yin is Che'er's sister."
"He found out about it the day after he arrived in the Western Region."
really!
She also cares about Che'er. Why doesn't Brother Tianxun refuse to tell her? Is it distrust? Or has he long since wanted to cut off the relationship with himself?
"Miss Lin, brother Tianxun probably likes you, right?" Zheng Zhen asked quietly.
He would discuss everything with Lin Zai, and he would often follow Lin Zai around. She had noticed it a long time ago.
"How do I know what the Fifth Prince is thinking?" Lin Zai thought for a while and then said: "But the Fifth Prince once said that he only regards you as his sister and has no other thoughts besides you! So for the sake of Miss Zheng, I still hope you won’t waste time on him anymore!”
For Zheng Zhen, Lin Zai's words were the biggest blow.
Even though Brother Xun had told Miss Lin these days, how could she convince herself that the two of them had nothing to do with each other.
Liking is a matter between two people, but how could she give up so easily!
