The real daughter's life was stolen, and she was reborn and became the best in the capital

"Ajin..."

Xu Zhaojun looked at Ming Jin in shock.

It’s hard to tell whether I was surprised that Mingjin agreed so easily, or surprised by her words... maybe both.

She looked at Ming Jin, her red lips slightly parted, but she was unable to speak for a moment.

Mingjin still had his eyes closed.

She didn't look at Xu Zhaojun, but she knew that Xu Zhaojun was looking at her. She could also feel her gaze on her, which was lingering.

Of course she knew Xu Zhaojun's surprise.

When she first realized it, she was also very surprised at her own thoughts.

There were even many times when I didn't want to admit it, and I didn't dare to admit it. I stayed away from him and avoided him, not wanting to have any contact with him.

But Gu Mingheng is really nice.

It was so good, but just being so far away from him made her feel guilty.

Hence the current conversation.

"Don't worry, I'm not thinking anything. I haven't told anyone about this except you, and I haven't thought about telling anyone about it."

She was already prepared to cut herself off from these thoughts.

I never thought about what to do.

It was unexpected to mention it to Xu Zhaojun, but this kind of accident was enough once.

She also didn't want her thoughts to affect Gu Mingheng one day.

But when Xu Zhaojun heard her say that, she couldn't help but frown and persuaded her: "If you really like him, it's not impossible. You two are not related by blood, and your status is similar. What's more, I see that the prince treats you very well, maybe..."

Before she could finish her words, Ming Jin opened her eyes and smiled, "Sister Xu."

Mingjin carefully placed the brocade box in his hand on the table between the two of them.

Then, facing Xu Zhaojun's concerned and worried gaze, he smiled and finished the rest of the sentence: "Nothing is possible."

"I know that no matter what I ask of him, he will agree without hesitation."

"Don't even think about asking him to marry me. I'm afraid he wouldn't even blink an eye even if I asked him to die."

"But why bother?"

"Why should I affect such a good person because of my own selfish desires?"

When Xu Zhaojun heard her say this, her brows furrowed even more.

"Ajin..."

She still wanted to persuade.

She felt that the King of Chang'an's kindness to her was not just out of guilt, perhaps...

But Mingjin had already spoken before her.

"Besides, I don't have the courage to enter into such a relationship again."

Xu Zhaojun was suddenly shocked.

…She understood what Mingjin meant.

Perhaps no one in this world can understand Mingjin's meaning better than her.

If it weren't for her parents who loved her and the responsibilities she had to shoulder, perhaps she would have chosen to live alone in this life.

After going through such a situation in the previous life, it is really difficult to enter into such a relationship without reservation.

What's more, Ajin had a much harder life than her in his previous life.

Xu Zhaojun suddenly fell silent.

Mingjin's words were not interrupted by her silence.

She looked at the banana tree outside the window, smiled and said to her: "I am actually not as generous as I appear to be."

"Many times when I am tolerant and generous, it is because I don't care. I don't care about them, so I can be tolerant and generous. But if I care about someone, I will absolutely not tolerate sharing and even the slightest bit of deception."

"I don't like myself like that, and I don't want to be like that again."

"It's so ugly to make yourself fragmented and hysterical for a little thing. I don't like it."

"It's easy to fall in love with Gu Mingheng."

Ming Jin smiled and said, "I feel his unreserved care and protection. Who can resist being protected by someone like Gu Mingheng?"

"But liking someone doesn't necessarily mean possessing them. Compared to being with him and gambling on an unknown future, I would rather he be with someone else."

"A good man like him should have a very good girl, not someone like me."

"Ajin——"

Xu Zhaojun had been silent, but when she heard this, she couldn't help herself.

She didn't like Mingjin saying that about her.

She thinks she is fine.

Ming Jin obviously heard her tone. She turned her head and smiled. Facing the criticism in Xu Zhaojun's eyes, her smile became even softer.

"I don't think there's anything wrong with me being like this."

"There are thousands of kinds of flowers in the world, and people are all different. I don't think there's anything wrong with me. I like myself now."

What is different about this life compared to the previous life?

That means she finally lives a fulfilled life.

She will never again compromise in order to please others, nor will she change herself beyond recognition.

What she does now depends on her own preferences.

Even though she's not perfect.

But who stipulates that people must be perfect in their lives?

She feels that she is fine the way she is now and there is no need to change for anyone.

Afraid that Xu Zhaojun wouldn't believe him, Ming Jin smiled and reiterated to her, "It's true."

She held Xu Zhaojun's hand and said to her: "I am not belittling myself by saying that."

"I just think he should marry a wife who satisfies everyone and is good at everything."

"You don't need to worry about me. Who I like is the most insignificant thing to me."

"I still have a lot of things to do, and these things are much more interesting than being with someone."

After all, Xu Zhaojun is not someone else, she understands Mingjin's heart.

I also know that Mingjin's words are true.

She said she didn't care, and that meant she really didn't care.

But she still couldn't help feeling a little regretful. It is really not easy for a person to have someone he loves in his life.

Many people may never find such a person until they die.

What's more, Ajin had just experienced such a past.

She actually really hopes that Ajin can let go of the past and be together with the person he loves.

But she also knew that she would not listen to her advice.

She is more decisive and resolute than anyone else, and she knows what she wants.

Xu Zhaojun looked at Mingjin and sighed silently. Apart from this, she didn't know what else she could do.

Hui held Mingjin's warm fingers.

Xu Zhaojun said to her: "Just tell me what's going on. I can't do anything, but at least I can be a quiet listener."

"This is good enough." Ming Jin looked at her and smiled.

After saying these things, she felt more relaxed.

The two did not talk about this matter again, but instead chatted for a while about the Tzu Chi hall they had planned to open, and also talked about the issue of site selection.

After chatting for a while, Hua Suilai replied.

"Master, Miss Xu, Lord Yuan has woken up and is asking about Miss Xu's whereabouts." She had just been ordered by Xu Zhaojun to stay outside, and only came over to speak to the two of them when someone from the guest room came back with a message.

When Xu Zhaojun heard this, she frowned slightly.

Ming Jin smiled and said to Xu Zhaojun: "Don't blame the Second Young Master. He and the prince have been friends for many years. The prince will not be angry with him."

That's what it says.

But Xu Zhaojun still felt that if it weren't for what Yuan Yu said today, Prince Chang'an would not have left at that time.

However, she didn't tell Mingjin these words.

"I'll go see him. If everything is alright, I'll go back first."

Mingjin nodded in agreement.

"I won't go over there. Let Hua Sui go with you. Tell her if you have anything to say."

Xu Zhaojun nodded in agreement.

Mingjin walked her to the door.

Watching Hua Sui taking Xu Zhaojun away, she went back, picked up the brocade box and walked towards her bedroom.

……

Xu Zhaojun and Hua Sui walked to the Moon Gate and saw Yuan Yu standing there.

Yuan Yu was obviously completely sober at this time. When he saw Xu Zhaojun coming over, his eyes lit up and he subconsciously wanted to come over. But when he thought that he was drunk in front of Xu Zhaojun, he became embarrassed and hesitant.

Although I think my drinking ability should be okay.

But after all, facing Xu Zhaojun, he couldn't help but feel a little worried, afraid that he had said something wrong after drinking, or did something that made Xu Zhaojun unhappy.

He was thinking like this until the two people came over and he came to his senses.

"Master Yuan."

Hua Sui greeted Yuan Yu first.

Yuan Yu uttered a soft "ah", but his eyes were always on Xu Zhaojun.

"I just heard from the servants that you came to see me." He spoke to Xu Zhaojun in a low voice.

Xu Zhaojun glanced at him and saw that his eyes were clear, which seemed to indicate that he was really awake, so she nodded softly.

"Let's go."

After she said this, she asked Hua Sui to stop.

She had been to the Princess's Mansion twice and already knew the way out and how to get there.

Hua Sui looked hesitant when he heard this.

The master asked her to send Miss Xu out...

But seeing Miss Xu and Lord Yuan standing together, thinking that they might have something to say, he did not hesitate and responded softly.

"There are servants on the way out. If Miss Xu doesn't know the way, ask them to lead the way for you two."

Xu Zhaojun and Hua Sui expressed their gratitude.

Hua Sui naturally hurriedly said politely, and she backed away and left.

Xu Zhaojun continued to move forward.

Yuan Yu could also sense that Xu Zhaojun was unhappy. He knew he had done something wrong, so he hurriedly followed Xu Zhaojun and apologized to her: "I didn't expect that I would get drunk. I promise you that I will never drink so much again when I go out in the future."

He wasn't usually like this.

People like them hate getting drunk outside.

He was so happy today. On the one hand, he had something to talk about with Ming Jingting, and on the other hand, he was having dinner outside with Xu Zhaojun. He was so happy that he couldn't control himself and got drunk.

When he woke up earlier, he regretted it extremely.

Xu Zhaojun said calmly: "If you want to drink, drink. You don't have to promise me anything. I won't hinder you on these matters. Just don't drink too much and get yourself in trouble."

She kept calling him the Second Young Master, which made Yuan Yu even more flustered.

"You are my future wife. If I don't promise you, who can I promise?"

"I'm not the kind of person who makes promises casually. Since I've made a promise to you, I will definitely do it. Just wait and see."

He spoke with great confidence, but there was still panic on his face, and he was obviously afraid that Xu Zhaojun would ignore him because of this.

He had finally gotten closer to her recently, and didn't want to go back to the way he was at the beginning.
