After a long time, Duan Yichen finally let go of Gu Jinmi and said, "This is your punishment."
"Ah! Punishment, what punishment?" Gu Jinmi looked at Duan Yichen with some confusion.
"What do you think?"
"I said, I didn't do anything wrong!"
"Isn't that right? Gu Jinmi."
"Ah! Here." Gu Jinmi couldn't help but stand up straight and answered when she heard someone calling her name.
"Puchi, there's really nothing I can do with you, little girl. Humph! Let me ask you, who's more important, me or that meaningless maid Xiaolian."
"Well, of course it's Xiaolian!"
"What, Gu Jinmi, say it again."
"I, I, huh! Xiaolian is important! Xiaolian has been with me since I was a child. Whether in the mansion or in the palace, she has always been by my side. What about you? Who are you? You are just someone I have known for less than two months."
"Jin'er." Duan Yichen suddenly looked at Gu Jinmi at a loss. Indeed, he just...
Gu Jinmi continued to speak to herself, "When the emperor ordered the killing of all the people in our mansion, it was Xiaolian who stayed by my side and helped me through the difficult times. So Xiaolian is not just a maid to me, but also my relative."
Duan Yichen sighed, reached out and touched Gu Jinmi's head and said, "I'm sorry, I was wrong, don't cry."
“Crying?!” Hey! I don’t seem to be crying! Gu Jinmi touched her cheek in a strange way. Hey! It’s really wet! It seems that she was influenced by the original owner!
"Okay, it's okay. I've asked Feng Ping'an to take your maid to the yard. I'll take you there!"
"OK."
"Yes, Su Liuyuan."
"Yes, that's right. You will live here from now on. My garden is right next to you. If you have any problems, you can come to me."
"Well, okay, I'll go in first. You can go back and do your thing." After saying that, he hurried in.
"Miss, you're okay, that's great."
"Xiao Lian, are you okay?"
"Well, Miss, I'm fine, how about you, Miss!"
"I'm fine too."
"Miss, I'm so glad you're okay, wuwu, Miss, you don't know me, I..."
"Silly girl, we are all fine, why are you crying!"
"Woo, miss, miss, luckily you are okay, but why did the cold palace suddenly catch fire? And when I wanted to go to bed, I don't know why a stranger suddenly broke into the room and kidnapped me. Woo, luckily you are okay."
"Silly girl, stop crying. I scared you! In fact, it was Duan Yichen who did this."
"Duan Yichen, that's not Prince Chen. When did you get to know Prince Chen?"
"Well, this matter is a long story. Do you remember that I came back covered in blood once?"
"Well, Miss, you mean to say that the person you saved that day was Prince Chen."
"That's right, and I asked him for help so that we could leave the palace smoothly, so this incident might have been done by Duan Yichen!"
"Miss, Miss, how can you call the King of Chen by his name? What if the King of Chen hears it?"
"Don't worry! That guy won't care."
After living in Prince Chen's mansion for more than a month, Gu Jinmi felt uncomfortable all over! During this period, Duan Yichen often came to see her, and every time he would make some embarrassing moves. This couldn't go on! What if she was really moved by Duan Yichen? Then, at that time, she simply couldn't... No, no, in order to prevent this from happening, she had better leave!
Gu Jinmi came to the study and looked at the person outside the door awkwardly, "Um, um, let me look for Duan Yichen, um, um, Prince Chen."
"This, I will report to the prince."
"Lei, no need, ask her to come in."
After Gu Jinmi walked into the study, she looked at Duan Yichen who was handling official business with some bewilderment.
"What's wrong? Don't you have something to talk to me about? What is it?"
"Well, I think I've been in Prince Chen's Mansion for more than a month, so it's not a big deal for me to stay here any longer. Well, I want to..."
When Duan Yichen heard what Gu Jinmi said, his face suddenly darkened. He looked at the people around him and said coldly, "Get out."
When Gu Jinmi heard this, she thought he was talking about her and hurried out the door.
"Stop. I'm not talking to you. Get out."
"yes."
When the people around heard Duan Yichen's words, they ran out immediately. Listening to the prince's gloomy voice, they knew when to run away if not now!
Gu Jinmi looked at Duan Yichen approaching her step by step, and couldn't help but step back. "You, what do you want to do?"
"Gu Jinmi, I'm asking you if you have no heart!"
"Ah! What?" Gu Jinmi looked at Duan Yichen strangely.
"Gu Jinmi, can't you really see my intentions? Is everything I have done during this period of time meaningless to you? Gu Jinmi, what do you want me to do so that you can understand my heart?"
"I, I." Gu Jinmi turned her head away uncomfortably.
"Gu Jinmi, you are hiding. What are you hiding from? Am I not good enough for you?"
"No, no, it's not because of you, it's me, it's my fault, but, but I don't deserve you to be so nice to me. Duan Yichen, you deserve someone better. I, I am not your good man."
"Gu Jinmi, you may not like me, but you can't treat my sincerity as flowing water."
"I, I didn't, I, I just... I'm sorry, Duan Yichen, I really can't."
"Why, why, tell me a reason."
"No, no. If you insist, then I can only say that I don't love you."
"If you don't love me, then why are you crying? Jin'er, you can deceive everyone, you can deceive me, but you can't deceive your own heart. So Jin'er, can't you have the courage to face what's in your heart?"
"I, I, I'm sorry, Duan Yichen, I've made up my mind. I just came here to say goodbye to you. I'll go back first." After saying that, Gu Jinmi wanted to run away.
Duan Yichen quickly grabbed Gu Jinmi and said, "Gu Jinmi, that's enough. I let you go once, and I will never let you go a second time. Gu Jinmi, you are mine, I will never let you go, you're dreaming if you want to leave."
"Why, why? Obviously I..."
"Perhaps you will find it strange, but Gu Jinmi, I cannot deny that I fell in love with you at first sight, so I will never let you go in this life, the next life, or the next life."
"I, I, am leaving first,"
"Unless you promise not to mention that."
"I, I understand. I'll leave first." Gu Jinmi ran out with a red face.
