After a long time, he finally slowly narrowed his eyes, and his eyes became cold and sharp, as if the last light was swallowed up by the darkness, completely, not even a ray of light could be illuminated.
He Ruojin looked at the dark forest in the distance and said quietly: "Sheng Ling, I always thought that a love can only last a lifetime, but I suddenly felt that I can only love you so far."
He Ruojin thought that the most painful thing was the bloody and brutal sword piercing her body, but it turned out that what was more hurtful than the sword was the despair of even love being strangled.
After He Ruochen finished speaking, he turned around and saw Sheng Ling kneeling down for him. Sheng Ling's voice was vague, as if she was going to faint at any time, but she still wanted to apologize to him, but He Ruochen didn't. When she knelt down, he grabbed her hand. He Ruoxin looked at Sheng Ling calmly and said respectfully, "Wei Chen will send the princess back."
Sheng Ling slowly raised her eyes and looked at He Ruojin. Whether it was He Ruojin's eyes or He Ruojin's tone, she vaguely understood something.
She bit her lips and wanted to say something else, but she knew that nothing seemed to be right at this juncture, so she could only nod.
Sheng Ling got on the horse, but He Ruochen did not. He held the horse and led Sheng Ling out of the forest.
The night slowly darkened, and the faint and cold moonlight shone down, stretching the figure of Sheng Ling on the horse very long. The wind blew sharply, but except for the sound of the wind, both of them were surrounded by desolation. Falling into a rather eerie silence.
But this strange tranquility did not last long. After leaving the deep forest, He Ruochen asked Sheng Ling a question in a calm tone. It was also the first time He Ruochen asked Sheng Ling this question.
Before this, He Ruojin always thought that he would never ask this question, because once he asked this question, he would have already lost.
But... At the moment, it seems that he has lost.
He Ruojin looked into the distance indifferently and asked this sentence -
"Can I know what the princess likes about him?" After He Ruoxin finished speaking, he even laughed at himself and added, "I want to hear the truth."
Sheng Ling sat on the horse, lowered his head slightly, and gently held the corners of his clothes with his fingers. After being silent for a while, he softly said: "When I liked him, I never thought about why I liked him. It's just that my heart moved when I liked him. Yes, when I liked him, I felt that whatever he did was good. Maybe I was young at that time and had never encountered anything, so... I just fell in love with him. Later I regretted why I liked him... "When Sheng Ling said this, he stopped, was silent for a moment, and then said, "Forget it, General, there's nothing nice to hear about this."
He Ruochen nodded, still looking away quietly. He seemed to understand what Sheng Ling meant, but Sheng Ling walked out and he still stopped in place.
But Sheng Ling's last sentence is quite right, forget it.
Yes, forget it, if you talk about this now, there is nothing to listen to.
When He Ruochen sent Sheng Ling back to the Princess Mansion, the night became darker. Sheng Ling dismounted and nodded slightly to He Ruochen: "Thank you, General, for sending me back."
He Ruochen got on the horse without saying a word, tightened the reins, was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Sheng Ling standing outside the house, and said: "Sheng Ling, maybe I am wrong, but since everything If you make a mistake, make it a mistake and no one can look back."
After He Ruochen said this, he rode away without waiting for Sheng Ling's answer.
