During this period, Ji Xubai saw that Wen Zhigu's eye circles were still red, and his long eyelashes were stained with wet tears. His eyes were still clear and cold, but they seemed to have shed all the tears.
Ji Xubai felt so distressed that he couldn't help but gently grab her hand that was about to let go.
Wen Zhigu raised his eyes, and his cold eyes seemed to be soaked with a bright pearl, slowly emerging from the bottom of his eyes, with a hint of starlight and slightly cooler than before.
Wen Zhigu's voice was slightly hoarse after crying, but also a little warm: "Let go."
Ji Xubai still held her hand gently and whispered: "You know the truth, don't embarrass yourself."
"Why should I embarrass myself..." Wen Zhigu said lightly, lowering her eyes and not looking at him, but after crying like this, her mood had improved a lot, and she was not as depressed as she had been just now.
"When you see me, isn't it just to embarrass yourself?"
Wen Zhigu's expression paused slightly. After hearing his words, he suddenly remembered what the maid said not long ago...
She raised her eyes steadily and looked over. Ji Xubai's eyes were quiet, like water without temperature flowing, with a hint of sadness that was not easy to detect, but he was also magnanimous, as if he was , no matter how miserable, no matter how unbearable, he just left it here and let her look at it like this. She understood that it was time to leave him.
Wen Zhiyu sniffed and didn't answer him immediately. She put one hand on his side and leaned half of her body over him. Her breath was very close, so close. Wen Zhiyu felt him clearly for the first time. Wen Zhigu held his breath, picked up the wooden rabbit from the bed, stood up and sat down, then looked at Ji Xubai and said calmly: "Let's talk."
"You know it, you don't have to sympathize with me."
Wen Zhigu said calmly: "What do you have to sympathize with?"
She had never felt sympathy for him.
Ji Xubai slightly pulled the corners of his lips and looked at her quietly: "That's even better. Wen Cheng has been arrested. You can move out with peace of mind, and you don't have to look like a ghost to me here every day. .”
"Ji Xubai, I stayed in Ji Mansion to take care of you, not because of Xiao Jian, let alone because Lord Ji begged me. I just discussed the matter. You were seriously injured to save me and Xiao Jian. There is no reason for me to ignore everything. .”
Ji Xubai said calmly, "I don't need your care."
In the past, Wen Zhigu would have left a long time ago, but now she remembered what the maid said and understood Ji Xubai's repeated emotions. She knew that she couldn't leave now. If she really left, No one knows how Ji Xubai will collapse...
Therefore, when she heard Ji Xubai's words, she was silent for a while, raised her head and said, "Did you think I was crying just because of you?"
Ji Xubai lowered his eyes and twitched his lips as if he was mocking himself: "Isn't it?"
Wen Zhigu was silent for a moment and said, "Stop being so sentimental."
Ji Xubai paused and raised his eyes to look at her.
Wen Zhigu looked at him unnaturally, and gently opened his lips and said, "It's because I learned an unacceptable truth from Wen Cheng, and it has nothing to do with you."
"What...the truth?" Ji Xubai was slightly stunned. When he thought that Wen Zhigu had not cried so sadly just because of him, Ji Xubai felt inexplicably relieved and felt a little indescribable happiness.
But Wen Zhigu's attitude was still calm: "It has nothing to do with you."
