Chapter 103: Was it You Who Saved Me Five Years Ago?

as about to find a decent inn to stay in, a flash of sea blue suddenly appeared before her eyes.She didn't raise her head, took a step to the side, and let the person pass, saying, "Sorry."If people d..."Yao'er! Concern breeds chaos, don't lose your footing." Lan Bo knew his daughter's nature well, fearing she had already fallen deeply for Xuan Yuan Che. Now she was blinded by her feelings, unable to see the situation clearly.

He continued, "No matter what, Xuan Yuan Che is Xuan Yuan Luo Chen's flesh and blood brother. He won't let anything happen to him. He just wants Xuan Yuan Che to know it's difficult and give up."

Lan Xin Yao wasn't unaware of these things, after steeling her resolve, she still gave up the idea of entering the palace, "Yes, daughter understands."

At this moment, in the Jinyang Palace, Mo Hyun knelt before Jun Liye and reported today's events truthfully.

Shangguan Jinghong shook his jade bone fan and said in a puzzled tone, "What could Rongyue possibly want from Su Qingying that she would be so eager to find her To the point of having a showdown with you It's truly bewildering."

"Returning to Young Master Shangguan, I am unaware."

"Alright, Rong Yue is a smart person and wouldn't do anything out of line. It's that Lan Bo I'm worried about." While Su Qingying did indeed have the beauty of a fairy, she wasn't irrational, especially someone as intelligent and perceptive as her.

Thinking of the mess the Xuanyuan family had gotten themselves into, Shangguan Jinghong laughed with schadenfreude, secretly delighted. "He's certainly quick to act, now Xuan Yuan Luocheng has something to worry about."

Jun Liye then appeared indifferent, a mocking smile playing on his handsome face illuminated by the clear wind and bright moon. "Xuan Yuan Luo Chen isn't incompetent, Lan Bo is only digging his own grave."

"No way, wasn't Xuanyuan Che still kneeling outside the imperial study" Shangguan Jinghong opened his mouth in disbelief, staring at him with a look of confusion.

“Don’t believe me Just wait and see, Xuen Yuan Luo Chen is not so easily schemed against.” Jun Li Ye wasn’t going to explain, contentedly sipping the fragrant tea in his hand. The rising steam passed through his long eyelashes, shrouding his handsome face in a layer of mist, ethereal like a fairy, devilishly alluring.

"When will this rain ever stop It's so annoying!" Su Qingying lay bored at the window, the rain had been falling for a whole day, driving her crazy.

Seeing that she was bored, Xi'er decided to gossip with her about today's fresh news. "Princess, have you heard Prince Rui is kneeling outside the Imperial Study Hall, begging the Western Underworld Emperor for a marriage."

"He's gone crazy, such heavy rain, even iron wouldn't hold up!" Su Qingying had been holed up in Liuyun Palace for a day, completely unaware of what was happening.

Thinking that Xuan Yuan Che's injuries from the previous days of being punished were probably still not healed, no matter what, the other party suffered for her. Both emotionally and logically, she couldn't just ignore him when he was in need.

Thinking about it, she immediately opened her mouth, "Xier, get me an umbrella."

Xi'er was taken aback. It was pouring rain right now. She refused to let her go out, saying, "Princess, are you going out That's not possible! The rain hasn't stopped yet. You'll catch a cold."

"It doesn't matter, you stay here, I'll go myself." Su Qingying didn't heed her words, picked up the purple bamboo umbrella from the corner of the wall and hurried out the door.

Although it is summer now, this cold wind carrying rain hitting the body is really not ordinary. Su Qingying couldn't help but tighten the purple mink fur cloak she was wearing and hurried towards the imperial study.

From afar, she saw the figure kneeling straight in the rain curtain, a deep blue against the gray. Despite the rain lashing down on him, he still gritted his teeth and refused to leave, stubbornly remaining where he was.

He had knelt for an entire day, his wounds still unhealed. Xuan Yuan Che was already like a taut bowstring, his head dizzy and his vision blurring.

Suddenly, a black figure appeared before Xuan Yuan Che, shielding him from the rain.

He was slightly startled, then immediately raised his head. Looking up, he saw Su Qingying's stunningly beautiful face.

She was wearing a milky white, waist-cinching, front-buttoned long dress. The cuffs were delicately embroidered with orchids, elegant and refined.

Her phoenix eyes glistened with autumn water hues, her slender waist barely a grasp in width. Dressed in a purple fox fur cloak, she exuded extravagance.

She held a purple bamboo umbrella, raindrops pattering around her like silver shimmering. She was ethereal and otherworldly beautiful, untouched by the mundane, like a painting come to life.

Xuanyuan Che gazed deeply at her stunning beauty, a self-deprecating smile playing on his lips. "Su Qingying, you know"

Su Qingying looked down at him, her ink-jade phoenix eyes filled with anger, "Xuan Yuan Che, are you stupid Are you not growing a brain In such heavy rain, why are you kneeling like an idiot Your wounds from the last time Xuan Yuan Luochen beat you haven't healed yet, and your injuries will become inflamed. Don't you value your life!"

"I didn't expect you to still care about me," Xuen Yuan Che said with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, his eyes deep and filled with mixed emotions.

Su Qingying pressed her eyebrows, feeling like she had punched a cotton ball, "Nonsense, your injury is because of me, of course I care about you."

“So that’s how it is…” Xuan Yuan Che murmured, his eyes lowered. After a pause, his voice became hoarse, “Su Qingying, this king wants to know, was the person who saved me five years ago you”

He always had a feeling, perhaps Su Qingying was the woman he had been trying to repay and marry all along. Therefore, he had to get to the bottom of what happened five years ago!

"What are you doing this for" Su Qingying frowned.

"This king doesn't want to be a clueless fool."

Su Qingying was taken aback for a moment, then nodded faintly, "It's me. There's nothing to deny about it."

"Since you were the one who saved me, why did you suddenly leave back then" Xuan Yuan Che looked up, and suddenly, his heart ached so much that he closed his eyes, a wry smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

“Nonsense, back then I risked my life to save you. I even absorbed the poison for you! The poison was too powerful; I almost died. Even though my older brother quickly found a court physician to cure me, the side effects of the poison made me sleep for seven days and seven nights. Later, my older brother worried about my safety, so he hurriedly took me back home. Who knew that when we returned, you turned your back on me! You either mocked or ridiculed me, or avoided me altogether. You even went to great lengths to try and break our engagement.” Su Qingying explained everything truthfully.

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yuan Che's eyes flew open, his heart skipping a beat. Hearing this, what else was there for him to not understand!

Clutching his face, Xuan Yuan Che laughed and cried at the same time. His heart ached so much that he seemed insane. "Heh, I never thought it would really be like this Haha! I'm such a fool, a complete idiot! I couldn't even tell who my savior was, making such a huge mistake! Hahaha…"

"What do you mean by that" Su Qingying's eyes flashed, how could she not even recognize her own savior

"Su Qingying, I ask you, if I had never wronged you in the beginning, would you love me" After a long bitter laugh, Xuan Yuan Che suddenly raised his head to look into Su Qingying's eyes, and instead of answering her question, he spoke hoarsely.

"How would I know about something that never happened" Su Qingying said, bewildered.mb, standing calmly behind her.“......” Jun Liye's eyes twitched uncontrollably at the corner of his eyes, and his facial expression once again appeared blank for a moment."The old man with white hair...
