After a tragic death and rebirth, I became the regent's favorite
Chapter 178 His Weakness
"Okay, I can stay out of this matter, but Moyou, I hope you understand that my little uncle is the person who loves you the most in this world. If you miss him, you will regret it for the rest of your life."
Xiao Xuan's words were so absolute that Shen Moyou shook her head and held her forehead. She nodded and said, "I know, don't worry."
After leaving Xiyue Palace and returning to the courtyard where Shen Moyu was temporarily arranged to stay in Ziyun Palace, she suddenly collapsed on the bed due to exhaustion, which frightened Ji Chun, who hurried forward to feel Shen Moyu's pulse.
"Miss, are you okay?"
As troubles continued to rise, Shen Moyu was really annoyed by these people making a fuss about nothing, but since they all meant well, he couldn't get angry.
"I'm fine. Go get me a basin of water and wash my face. I'll be refreshed."
Shen Moyu pinched her sore brows. Too many things had happened in the past few days and she couldn't relax for even a moment. Now that she was back in the room, she relaxed instantly, but instead felt extremely tired.
Ji Chun also noticed that Shen Moyu was not in good condition, so he quickly got up to get some water. Unexpectedly, just as he reached the door, Xiao Linchuan walked over from the gate.
"Your Highness, this is the palace, please be careful..."
But before she finished speaking, Xiao Linchuan said indifferently, "Don't worry, this is Xuan'er's territory anyway. If anyone dares to gossip, I will throw them out of the palace in a minute."
That's not the case. Ji Chun was speechless, but he couldn't do anything about Xiao Linchuan. After all, he was the master.
Shen Moyu was still lying on the bed, not noticing that Xiao Linchuan was slowly approaching her.
It wasn't until Xiao Linchuan sat down beside the bed that Shen Moyou felt something and almost jumped out of the bed. Xiao Linchuan quickly held her down and said, "Be careful. You are so impatient at your age."
"Your Highness, could you please not be so mysterious all the time?"
Shen Moyou's face was full of black lines. She was really speechless. "Also, this is Ziyun Palace. Can you think about Xuan'er? Will it make things difficult for her if you barge in like this without any consideration?"
Xiao Linchuan smiled innocently, "I just want to see you soon, right?"
"Then should I thank His Royal Highness the Regent for his kindness?"
Shen Moyu rolled her eyes at Xiao Linchuan in annoyance, thinking that this man was simply outrageous. However, she was speechless because since the person had already come, there was no point in chasing him away.
"Seriously, have you mentioned this to Concubine Ruan?"
As expected, Xiao Linchuan came here for this matter. It is certain that he cares about Xiao Xuan's affairs. After all, he only has such a precious niece.
"I've already said that, but I said it out loud, so Concubine Ruan seems a little worried. And Xuan'er is a little resistant, so I'm afraid it will take some time for her to accept it."
Shen Moyu told the truth, but Xiao Linchuan frowned in distress. He didn't know whether what he did was right or wrong.
"Yoyo, do you think I'm too selfish?"
"What!?"
Shen Moyou was a little slow to react to what Xiao Linchuan meant, and was stunned for a while, "Xiao Linchuan, you are not a person who doubts yourself. Now that you have decided, just do it. As for the rest, don't think too much before there is a result, because it is meaningless."
That's true. Since no one knows what will happen next, what's the point of thinking so much? It's better to do it first and then think about it later.
"Yoyo, you are always so optimistic."
Xiao Linchuan smiled tiredly. He didn't know why, but in front of Shen Moyu, he could always show his most vulnerable side to the fullest.
He knew that doing so was showing weakness to Shen Moyu, but he didn't care, "Sometimes I really envy you."
"Envy me?"
Shen Moyou thought Xiao Linchuan was really crazy, "Why do you envy me? Xiao Linchuan, I'm not as good as you think. There are some things that I have to pay a certain price to have such an attitude and reaction today, but I just don't say it."
In her previous life, she was also a person who panicked whenever something happened and didn't know how to protect herself, so she paid a heavy price.
So she is very careful in this life, for she is afraid that something like what happened in her previous life will happen again, and she thinks over and over again before doing anything.
"Then can you tell me?"
Xiao Linchuan looked into Shen Moyu's eyes very seriously, as if he wanted to see her into his heart.
"Xiao Linchuan, I'm sorry, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but I can't tell you, because this is another me that you can't imagine at all."
Shen Moyu was a little scared. She was afraid that if she told Xiao Linchuan, his attitude towards her would change. She was also afraid that if she told everything, it would cause unimaginable consequences.
So instead of being afraid of this and that, it is better to prevent such things from happening in the first place and bury them in your heart forever. That would be best.
Xiao Linchuan also knew that Shen Moyu would never say anything he didn't want to say, so he was just testing him. Since Shen Moyu didn't want to, he wouldn't force him.
"I understand. I won't force you."
Xiao Linchuan was afraid that Shen Moyou would have any misunderstandings because of his words, so he quickly explained, "Moyou, I just want to get to know you better, and I have absolutely no other intentions."
"I know, Xiao Linchuan, you don't have to be so cautious with me. Can you try to live in peace with me?"
Shen Moyu actually felt a little distressed about Xiao Linchuan's cautious attitude, but what could she do?
In fact, there was nothing she could do. The only thing she could do was to be nicer to Xiao Linchuan as Xiao Xuan said and not be so cold all the time.
"Live in peace? How do you want me to live in peace?"
Xiao Linchuan raised his lips in a self-deprecating smile, "Yoyo, you don't understand, you have been my obsession from the beginning, so I can never treat you the same as others. I also know what you are worried about, but don't worry, what you think will never happen, believe me, okay?"
"Xiao Linchuan, you are wrong."
Shen Moyou shook her head and responded to his smile with a somewhat bleak tone, "Perhaps I have never been your obsession. Have you ever thought that I am actually the same Shen Moyou you knew when you were a child, although I am the same person, there are many differences inside me."
"Yoyo, you mean, you don't want me to get too close, right? Do you think my kindness to you is a burden?"
Xiao Linchuan looked at her with hurt eyes. Shen Moyu was his weak spot, and it had always been like that, and this would never change.
