She straightened her sleeves, stood up and prepared to leave the house.

"That day... why didn't you tell me?" He grabbed her hand, his voice trembling in his trance, "Why didn't you tell me?"

"Why?" She looked back at him and suddenly couldn't help laughing, "Hehehe..."

"When you question me and doubt me, let me tell you, am I poisoned?"

She thought it was ridiculous. "I don't want you to pity me. If it's not love, I don't want it."

"Yuer, I..." Now he has once again done something that cannot be undone.

Doubting her, abandoning her, what should he do, how should he redeem these mistakes, how can he still have the face to redeem them...

He could only hold her hand all the time, not daring to let go, for fear that he would lose her if he let go.

She turned her eyes to Xiao Wenshu who had been standing outside the house, "Is the dagger here?"

Xiao Wenshu was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Yes... I've put it away."

"Give it to me."

While hesitating, Xiao Wenshu paid attention to the situation inside the house and said, "Okay... I'll get it right away."

"Let go."

He didn't let go, but tightened it even more.

He suddenly understood why she came back, just to get her sword back.

I don't even know what to say. I have made an unforgivable mistake.

Finally, he pleaded, more timidly than ever before, "Yu'er... please don't leave, okay?"

After a long silence, she suddenly called him, "Yan Qing."

A cry, as soft as a feather, but like a stone hitting his heart. He could no longer restrain himself and hugged her out of control.

"Yu'er, I'm sorry... I'm sorry, it's all my fault, I failed Yu'er, I misunderstood, I wrongly blamed you, I can bear any punishment, don't go... please... don't leave me..."

His choked plea seemed to hurt her heart. Was he still afraid? Was he afraid that she would abandon him?

A bitter taste spread from my mouth and tears flowed without warning.

She gently pushed open his tightly locked arms and looked at his face as he was holding back his tears.

She held his hot cheeks with her hands and smiled, "It's okay, Yanqing. I know you did nothing wrong, but... you don't love me enough."

"No! I didn't trust Yu'er enough. I was stupid and fell into the trap. It was me. It was all me... But I love you. That love has never changed."

She curled her lips slightly, "I will make you love me very much, as long as I finish everything, as long as I succeed... It's not difficult... As long as I risk my life, you will definitely love me, it's just that I haven't done enough."

Her unfocused black pupils seemed to be covered by a layer of fog, repeating themselves over and over again.

After she finished speaking, she didn't stop, took the dagger from Xiao Wenshu's hand, and prepared to leave.

She felt him approaching and immediately stopped.

The man behind him, who was in a trance, also stopped.

"Yuer..." He called her name tentatively.

He didn't know what she wanted to do, but he was afraid. He was afraid that she would risk her life and that he would never see her again.

"Yan Qing, the love you wanted is over. For the rest, I will do it my way."

"Yu'er..." He hurriedly followed, "Listen to me, okay? I..."

Suddenly, she swung her dagger and turned, slashing his sleeve.

If he took another step forward, she would hurt him.

"Don't follow me." His eyes were like the arrival of extreme cold, but they also contained a smile.

In an instant, no one dared to get closer.

He was the same, but because of the regret for doing something wrong, he felt that he had no face to possess her anymore.

She left the palace just like that, and no one dared to stop her.

After everyone recovered from what had just happened, they noticed Zhou Yian who had returned at some point.

"Did you save Yu'er?" He asked in a cold voice, his lowered eyes covered by a haze.

Zhou Yian did not hide anything and answered truthfully, "Yes."

But as soon as he finished speaking, he rushed forward, grabbed Zhou Yian's collar, and screamed uncontrollably, "Why didn't you bring her back?! Why did you hide it?!"

Zhou Yian looked at his bloodshot eyes without struggling or refutation.

"She said she doesn't want you to pity her." His calm words were her hopeless pain.

He was stunned, slowly loosened his collar, and staggered back a few steps.

Yes, Yuer just said that.

"If we couldn't find her that day, I'm afraid she would have died."

"Once the poison penetrates deep into the body, it will definitely kill you. There is no cure. It took me nearly three days to save her."

These words are cruel, but they are indelible facts.

"Even when I found her, she didn't plan to tell me." Zhou Yian's heavy voice was slightly choked.

"She said that her senior brother was her hope for survival. Without hope, she couldn't survive."

"She doesn't want to be alone, she just wants to be with you."

Zhou Yian sighed helplessly. Even though he was not the one experiencing that, he could feel the pain that Qing Yu had to endure.

"Her left arm was stabbed by a sword, which was coated with poison. Those people wanted her to die. Her back, abdomen, and legs all suffered serious internal injuries."

"I also can't imagine that after being so badly injured, she could still carry Zhao Wanqiao back and stand in front of my senior brother."

Xiao Yanqing stood there frozen in place as if he had lost his soul. These words were like several arrows, piercing his body one after another.

"Brother, in fact, she thinks of you like a child. If you had cared about her first that day, even if you had asked her if she was hurt, she would have been very happy and would have always been on your side."

"So, she thinks that in Senior Brother's heart, Zhao Wanqiao is more important than her, because the one you care about first is not her."

After Zhou Yian finished speaking, he left. He was the only one left outside the house, feeling lonely and in pain of losing her.

He stood there stupidly, in pain, unable to breathe. The pain was all his own fault.

I clearly told her that I would believe her and that I would not make such a stupid mistake again, but I still hurt her again and again.

What qualifications does he have to stay with her, and what qualifications does he have to ask for her forgiveness.

At this time, Zhao Wanqiao, who was hiding behind the house, was also watching all this.

She felt it was her fault. If she hadn't gone, so many tragedies wouldn't have happened.

He immediately asked someone to prepare the carriage and head to the house.

When Zhao Wanqiao arrived, he found that she was indeed here.

"Princess." Zhao Wanqiao walked to her side cautiously.

She sorted out the things in her hands without looking up, "Now that your identity is exposed, it's best not to come out."

Zhao Wanqiao pursed her lips and asked tentatively, "Can you forgive Brother Yan? I was too stupid, so I caused all this."

"Why do you want to go to the appointment?" She did not answer Zhao Wanqiao's question, but asked, "Even if the person who invited you is really me, it is a trap to kill you, why do you still want to go?"

"I was just thinking, if the princess gives me a chance, I must seize it. If I go, you won't hate me so much." Tears still flowed in fear and self-blame.

She didn't want to see them suffer, especially since it was all caused by her.
