Chapter 1166: Abandonment

Breaking up was just a sentence, a simple sentence, and that was it.

Why if it was her turn, these two words were like a thousand catties, how will she say them to him?

“Want to see?” Dongfang Mu looked at his granddaughter with distressed eyes.

Bai Zhi shook her head: “I don’t want to see him.” After saying that, she turned around and walked back as if she was in a hurry. She even stepped on the corner of her skirt and almost fell.

The maidservant hurriedly stepped forward to help her, but she pushed the maidservant away and ran away quickly with her skirt in her hands.

Chu Yan stood outside the gate anxiously.

He knew the master’s rules, so he didn’t dare to rush in without his approval.

In the past, he didn’t have so many scruples, but now, it was not the same.

After waiting for a while, the housekeeper who sent the message came back in a hurry, and knelt towards Chu Yan: “Your Majesty, the master doesn’t want to see you, please go back.”

Chu Yan frowned, and asked in a deep voice: “Is it your master who doesn’t want to see me, or your young lady who doesn’t want to see me?”

The housekeeper didn’t dare to answer, he just pressed his forehead against the cold ground and didn’t dare to lift it.

Chu Yan raised his foot, wanting to break in, but Bai Zhi’s face and those clear eyes suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

If he saw her what would he say?

How would he explain the women in the harem?

Regardless of whether he touched those women or not, those women were already his concubines, this was an unchangeable fact.

The previous promise was still in his ears, but the reality in front of him slapped him hard in the face.

He wanted to ignore everything and just rush in front of her.

However, his two legs seemed to be filled with heavy lead, he couldn’t lift them or take a step.

After being silent for a while, Chu Yan finally spoke to the housekeeper who was still lying on the ground: “Go and tell Bai Zhi that I will wait for her here until she is willing to see me.”

The housekeeper propped himself up on the ground and bowed with trembling legs.

He went to the plum courtyard where Bai Zhi lived to deliver these words. Bai Zhi sat in the room in a daze, listening to the housekeeper’s words, her heart was even more chaotic.

If she was an ordinary woman, she would have thrown herself in front of him long ago, hugging each other and crying, while saying fate had played at them, and then hated the injustice of this world.

But she was not an ordinary woman; she can’t do this and doesn’t want to.

She has feelings for Chu Yan. She does not deny it.

But she thinks that this feeling is not strong enough to accept everything in front of her.

Therefore, avoiding it may be the best way.

Since they haven’t seen each other, then they better not see each other, so they won’t miss each other.

Such a predicament can only be cut off by wielding a sharp knife and resolutely.

She took a deep breath, got up, and walked to the bookshelf, flicking through a book, trying to calm down the chaos in her heart.

The light of the sky was swallowed by the darkness bit by bit, and the night wind suddenly blew open the windows, leaking the cool breeze into the room.

Although it was midsummer, the night wind in the mountains was chilly. Wearing thin clothes, she couldn’t help sneezing.

She got up and walked to the window. She stretched out her hand to close the window but saw a haggard face.

The lights in the corridor were bright, making him look more emaciated.

He was still the same Chu Yan, with unparalleled handsomeness and noble temperament, just standing like this he was like a beautiful painting.

Her hands were on the window frame, while her eyes met his eyes. There seemed to be thousands of words going back and forth in their eyes, but in the end, no one spoke.

Her beautiful eyes were sparkling as tears swelled. Her heart ached like it was grinding. She didn’t want to cry in front of him, so she simply closed the window heavily.

The banging sound was like a stone shook the water waves in her eyes and turned them into drops of crystal beads.
