Sheng Ling kept watching Li Yu disappear into the crowd. After hesitating for a long time, he couldn't help but walk into the pawn shop.
Sheng Ling saw at a glance that the pawnshop owner was holding an exquisite and beautiful jade pendant, and he was looking at it happily.
Sheng Ling's expression changed slightly, because the jade pendant was the jade pendant that Li Yu asked the housekeeper of her princess mansion to give to her, and she finally returned it...
For a moment, Sheng Ling himself couldn't explain what he was feeling, except that he felt a little dull.
But she understood rationally that it was perfectly normal for Li Yu to repay Xiaodong's family by pawning his things.
It has nothing to do with her...
As soon as the boss saw Sheng Ling coming, his eyes lit up. He thought Sheng Ling was here to pawn off again, so he said hello to Sheng Ling with a smile.
Sheng Ling stared at the jade pendant in his hand.
The boss saw her looking at the jade pendant in his hand and said with a smile: "Do you like this jade pendant, miss? I'm sorry, this jade pendant is not for sale."
But Sheng Ling shook his head, saying that he was just passing by to take a look, then frowned and turned around and left.
Sheng Ling walked towards the yard where he lived.
She kept her head down and thought wildly along the way. When she arrived at her residence, she took out the key from her backpack. When she was about to raise her head and open the door, she suddenly saw Li Yu standing outside the door.
Sheng Ling was stunned for a while, then frowned and asked, "What are you here for?"
Li Yu didn't say anything, he just reached out to hold her hand and put a piece of silk wrapped in his hand into her hand.
Sheng Ling lowered his head and looked at the red cloth in his hand. He was silent for a moment, then reached out and opened the red cloth. There was a hairpin and a pair of small earrings on it.
They were all jewelry that she... had pawned off before.
"I remember that the little princess used to like to wear this hairpin." Li Yu said in a low voice, "You said you feel wronged by having something you like so much. You are a little princess."
Sheng Ling's eyelashes trembled slightly, she lowered her head and pursed her lips without speaking.
"I don't know if the princess ran out because she had a quarrel with the emperor and queen, but the little princess is always their heartthrob. When the little princess is angry, go back and don't stay here."
Sheng Ling remained silent and said nothing.
After Li Yu finished speaking, he didn't necessarily wait for her to answer. After a while, he turned around and passed her by.
"Wait a minute." Sheng Ling finally bit her lip and said.
Li Yu stood behind her, paused slightly, but did not look back.
"What are your... plans?" Sheng Ling asked with difficulty.
Li Yu was silent for a moment and replied calmly: "I don't have any plans, but Xiaodong's family is very nice and kind. I don't have any unfulfilled wishes. I know the little princess will be happy and her relatives will be well, so the rest During this time, I want to show my filial piety to Xiaodong’s family and I will have no regrets.”
Sheng Ling looked forward, her eyes wide open, but she couldn't hold the tears in her eyes. She cried silently, but nodded slowly and said "Ah".
She didn't speak anymore, as if she was afraid that her trembling voice would easily reveal her surging emotions at the moment.
After Li Yu left, she opened the door and closed it again. She stood in front of the door, squatted down slowly, clenched the red cloth in her hand, looked away with empty eyes and shed tears.
The tears kept falling down as if they were free of money.
The wind was very cold, blowing like the tips of small knives, making her eyelids hurt. Sheng Ling rested her face on her arms and closed her eyes tightly.
The darkness she felt was spreading infinitely.
