Chapter 1107: Chapter 1104: Refuse, You Will Regret It
Su Yingxue did not directly agree, nor did she know whether Leng Muling would indeed be so bold.
But after feeding the little monster at night, she couldn’t sleep either, so she went out for a walk, along the palace wall, where she could hear a man’s heavy breathing.
Su Yingxue approached and saw, “Mo Qi?”
The man in black shivered and quickly dressed and knelt down, “Your Highness! I deserve to die for disturbing Your Highness!”
Leng Muling lived in Su Yingxue’s palace, he had just come out, originally just wanting to find a secluded spot to drown his sorrows with alcohol.
“Stand up, it’s me who couldn’t sleep after getting up at night, you didn’t disturb me, but your body smells strongly of alcohol…”
Su Yingxue covered her nose, “You better report sick early, so you won’t get a scolding from the emperor tomorrow.”
Mo Qi thanked her again, “Your Highness, thank you for your concern.”
“What happened between you and Miss Leng, that you came here to drink alone?”
Su Yingxue tilted her head and glanced at the jar of wine by Mo Qi’s feet.
His demeanor was always calm and steady, even in his deep love for Hong Lian, he had never done anything outrageous for her.
But now…
“Nothing! She… she’s fine, it’s just that I am not worthy of her.”
A trace of sorrow crossed the depths of Mo Qi’s eyes, a sorrow that originated from the bottom of his heart, indelible, insurmountable.
The gap in status and class distance between him and Leng Muling was just so glaringly insurmountable.
Although he was of no low origin, he indeed could not aspire to match the family of Leng Muling.
“Mo Qi, there is a love bite on your neck.”
Su Yingxue pointed to his neck, which instantly turned his sorrow into embarrassment.
He hurriedly pulled up his collar, stammering, “No… not there! Your Highness, you saw wrong!”
“I am not blind, this kind of thing, you let a girl take the initiative, and then you ran away, do you know how she must feel?”
Su Yingxue was clear in her heart, knowing that Leng Muling must have made a move tonight.
But looking at Mo Qi’s reaction, he had not agreed to it.
Mo Qi lowered his head, his expression dark, “I can’t ruin her reputation, even if I can’t marry her, I cannot…”
“Not being able to marry her, do you think letting her marry a man she does not love, but who is from a matching family, will make her happy? It won’t. She has already thought this through deeply, even decides to make a bold move, and you flee at the last minute, or is it that you do not love her enough?”
“No! I love Ling’er very much; I only want to marry her in this lifetime!”
In Mo Qi’s memories, emotion was a blank slate, until Leng Muling appeared, her presence cast light into that vacant part of his heart, and only then did he realize how wonderful it is to love someone.
He used to envy Chu Yihan and Su Yingxue, until he himself possessed such feelings.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Mo Qi pursed his lips, as if after a struggle of thoughts, “Your Highness, I have disturbed you.”
“Hmm, it’s fine, I couldn’t sleep anyway, I’ll wander around the palace for a while.”
Su Yingxue strolled off in a different direction, she didn’t guess what Mo Qi would do, but as she reached out, the petals falling from the peach tree were indeed tenderly tempting.
This spring was bound to be extremely beautiful.
Leng Muling was hiding by the bed crying, her nimble and expressive eyes swollen from crying, “Woo, woo…”
Mo Qi had actually rejected her, pushed her away and run off.
She was infuriated!
Tomorrow, she would leave the palace and go home.
Thinking this, she got up crying and started tidying her clothes.
Suddenly, a figure appeared behind her, of which she was completely unaware.
