When Ji Lingzhou heard these words, he wished he could go back to that time and slap himself. He sighed silently in his heart, his face full of regret.

"I know you are still blaming me, but..." Ji Lingzhou actually wanted to say that this matter was over, but the words couldn't come out when they came to his lips.

After all, this incident caused her great harm, and such things will never go away. No matter how much time has passed, the pain left behind will always exist.

"I'm sorry..." Ji Lingzhou suddenly said.

Cheng Mingran paused while holding the hot water bottle, but did not respond. Ji Lingzhou walked over to her and wanted to hold her in his arms, but just as he stretched out his hand, he froze again. When did he become so timid?

"Your Majesty, there is no need to apologize to me." Cheng Mingran was in a low mood. When she heard the three words "I'm sorry" just now, the complex emotions I said instantly surged in her heart and then gradually drowned her.

Her eyes couldn't help but turn red, and the bitterness blurred his vision for a moment. Ji Lingzhou noticed her change of mood and frowned: "What's wrong?"

Cheng Mingran shook her head. Her emotions became more and more out of control when she heard his words. Ji Lingzhou looked at her without saying anything. Perhaps he was thinking about something. Finally, as if he had made up his mind, he finally held her in his arms.

Cheng Mingran felt the warmth in his arms, and for a moment she felt as if she was powerless to break free. This embrace was what she had been waiting for for a long time. Although it came late, she still lingered...

Ji Lingzhou put one hand around her back and held her hair with the other hand: "Are you crying?"

Crying... As soon as these two words came out, Cheng Mingran couldn't hold back any longer. He had obviously been dismissive of this before, but why did he use such a gentle tone now?

She thought she could hold it back, but when she thought of the grievances she had suffered in the past, coupled with his apology and tenderness at this moment, all her sadness burst out in an instant.

Tears fell like pearls from a broken string, she closed her eyes, and a slight whimper came out of her mouth. Ji Lingzhou felt a pain in his heart, but he didn't say anything, just patted her back, comforted her little by little, and tried to give her some support.

But... Cheng Mingran's crying became clearer and clearer, as if she wanted to cry out all the grievances she had suffered in the past. She had done nothing wrong, but why did she have to suffer all the hardships?

She was most afraid of pain, but no one cared. All the people who felt sorry for her were no longer around her. The only people who stayed behind were those who wanted to laugh at her.

During the days in the cold palace, she experienced countless despairs. She thought she was going to die, but she didn't dare to die because her father was still alive and the Cheng family was not out of danger yet...

Ji Lingzhou... She really, really liked him. She once wanted to be his wife, but he chose someone else in front of her. Later, she used the reason that Ji Lingzhou had no choice to deceive herself, saying that he had his own difficulties. After she had gone to great lengths to become his concubine, she thought she could be with him like they were in their childhood, but she did see boredom in his eyes.

All her extravagant hopes had become a bubble. She had only deceived herself and asked for trouble. So she was tired and gave up. But why did he give her the attachment and tenderness that she had never expected at this moment?

She also said that she didn't need it anymore, but somehow she seemed to be unable to escape from this cage. The Cheng family needed her, and the Queen Mother also wanted her to stay...

What do you want her to do...
