Moreover, the little emperor went so far as to dress like a woman and travel with Chen Jingzhi .
Xie Yunting was so angry that his eyes turned red .
For this man, she dared to wear a woman’s dress .
Xie Yunting felt a burst of pain in his head and a spasm in his chest .
He fiercely grabbed a bow from one of the soldiers next to him, swiftly nocked an arrow, and aimed at Chen Jingzhi .
Xie Yunting had only one thought . Kill him .
But the arrow didn’t fly .
Bai Weiwei’s face changed . Her whole body jumped into Chen Jingzhi’s arms, holding him, with her back facing the arrow .
Xie Yunting’s finger shook, nearly releasing the arrow .
He immediately held back his strength . His face was filled with fury . “Bai Wei, what are you doing?”
Chen Jingzhi was also confused, held in Bai Weiwei’s arms . Her soft and weak body sticking to his made his soul separate from his body .
Bai Weiwei clutched Chen Jingzhi, emotions brewing in her eyes full of pitiful tears .
When she faced him, she looked determined . “Xie Yunting, I’ve already given you the throne . Why do you still want to kill us?”
Xie Yunting couldn’t hear her . His eyes were filled with the image of her holding another man .
“Us? Aren’t you the one who was most disgusted by cutsleeves and homosexuals? Then what does this mean, dressing as a woman, traveling with this good-for-nothing?”
Under Xie Yunting’s anger was endless bitterness .
In front of him, she hated cutsleeves .
But when faced with Chen Jingzhi, she was even willing to wear women’s clothing .
She stabbed him right in the heart .
Bai Weiwei sneered . She was unyielding as she spoke, one word at a time: “True love does not see gender . I love based on the person, not on the gender . This isn’t cutsleeve, but a love that can’t be denied2 . ”
Chen Jingzhi was stupefied: “Love that can’t be denied?”
Wait, wait, what true love, what not seeing gender, what was this?
Didn’t he and the little emperor simply escape as normal fugitives .
They even spoke formally with each other .
Although he had some thoughts, he hadn’t taken any action, and they… just fell in love?
This love came too quickly . It made him disheveled in the wind1 .
Bai Weiwei turned back and cupped his face with deep affection . “Jingzhi, you were willing to die in order to help me keep my power, and were even thrown in prison . ”
Chen Jingzhi: His family had been loyal for generations, and his loyalty was because his parents had taught him well .
Bai Weiwei’s tears fell . “And for me, you threw away everything to escape from prison, just to save me . You’re willing to flee far away, and live on plain tea and simple food . ”
Chen Jingzhi: No way, if he didn’t break out it was the same thing as waiting for death . He just happened to save her on the way out .
Bai Weiwei burst into tears, extremely despairing . “No number of obstacles can keep us apart . I’m willing to give up the throne and be with you . ”
Chen Jingzhi’s face was shocked: You were a puppet . It doesn’t make any difference whether you step down or not .
Xie Yunting watched them, all the muscles in his body shaking .
The jealousy in his chest burned, causing him misery and suffering .
“You actually fell in love with him, with Chen Jingzhi?”
He forced out this question between clenched teeth, drawing blood .
Bai Weiwei was both deeply affection and mournful . “Xie Yunting, just let us go . This entire world is yours, what could you be lacking, why do you continue to chase us?”
Xie Yunting had never been so cornered and so desperate to escape .
“Having this world…”
There was no point .
His throat closed up and he didn’t dare to speak .
The little emperor looked at him, her eyes tranquil and dispassionate .
Her eyes when looking at Chen Jingzhi were affectionate and gentle .
For the first time, he experienced his heart being dug out .
1: 风中凌乱: extremely shocked and speechless .
2: 情非得已: an unavoidable situation, or a last resort .
