The ghost-catching princess, she always pretends to be weak

Chapter 85 First Love Is Not Satisfied
  He walked ahead, pulled the bolt, and opened the courtyard door.

Wen Jiu followed him with his head lowered.

Just a few steps, but it goes so long.

The two walked out together.

The hustle and bustle of the market is accompanied by the smell of pancakes.

Wen Jiu was in a daze. After leaving the courtyard, she and he were as if they were separated by mountains and seas, and it would be difficult to see each other again...

She walked down the steps slowly, her feet paused, and her hands hidden under her sleeves were already clenched into fists.

Chen Shu didn't say anything either, and the two stood there for a long time.

Wen Jiu suddenly turned around and hugged Chen Shu very hard.

Her voice sounded like she was crying: "I'm sorry... I'm really sorry."

If it weren't for her, how could Chen's mother commit suicide...

If she hadn't told Lu Xu that she had seen it... Lu Xu might not have been able to find out just based on Liu Yue and Zhang Xichu's words...

Chen Shu did not move after all.

He didn't dare to move, fearing that if he did... he would be gone like a dream.

"How can I blame the girl...she is the best person I have ever met."

Wen Jiu closed his eyes heavily.

I am the best person you have ever met and you are the best person I have ever met.

Who is more regretful...

But Chen Shu continued: "So the girl will definitely meet very good people in the future."

Wen Jiu felt more and more aggrieved: "I will not say such unintentional words like you. You will never meet a good person like me again in the future."

Chen Shu felt a pain in his heart, yes, meeting you has already spent almost all my luck, how can I dare to expect more.

After a while, he said: "Then I definitely don't deserve to meet you again."

Snow suddenly started flying in the air. Wen Jiu let go of his hand and turned his head to look at the snow.

Effortless and extraordinarily free.

She had dreamed about Chen Shu, but even in her dream, she had never been so close to him.

Even looking at each other in the dream would make her blush and her heart beat.

But today is obviously the closest, but it is also the closest in this life.

She didn't have the courage. Chen's mother's life was lying in front of her, and her last wish was to let Chen Shu go.

You can't pretend that nothing happened.

Even if she breaks through the shackles, she can't ignore Chen Shu.

He has been upright and self-possessed throughout his life, upright and calm.

He cannot be criticized and scorned by officials, nor can he be made difficult by his mentor.

Thinking of this, Wen Jiu remained silent for a long time.

She gently raised her hand and said, "Why did you say they rushed to fall from the clouds and fell into the soil?"

Chen Shu looked at Wen Jiu's side face and said softly: "They were born at high places and are just curious about things they have never seen before. What they don't get is always the best."

"But Chen Shu, they were finally willing to turn into water and dissolve in."

"Because they have no choice, but the girl still has it."

Wen Jiu took two steps forward and distanced himself from Chen Shu.

Then he bowed politely and laughed: "No matter what you think, in fact, when I met you for the first time in the house, I saw that you didn't even dare to look at me to avoid suspicion, so I thought of being so polite. A self-possessed gentleman is of course the one I like. Later, when I met you many times, you always kept your distance from me. Unfortunately, I am not like ordinary women. When I am tempted, I want to do my best. I love you. , not because of curiosity, nor because you always protect me, but because I fell in love at first sight."

She thought Chen Shu would warn her not to say these words again as usual.

But she didn't expect that he would look at her intently, smile as well, and slowly say: "Me too."

"I have always known that the person I like is you. I knew it from the moment I stood at the door of Wen Mansion holding the jade pendant."

At this time, all the grievances and unwillingness of Wen Jiu were intertwined in his heart, and mixed with blood, it flowed throughout his body.

She sniffed and didn't want to cry anymore. I could only pretend not to care and said: "But you have refused me thousands of miles away from the beginning. I wanted to get closer, but you kept pushing me away. It's all your fault!"

Chen Shu said: "Yes."

Wen Jiu thought for a while and then said: "Although there are many girls better than me in the world, I don't want you to find someone better than me. I will think that I am not good enough... If you see someone who is 90% better than me, , that’s enough…”

Chen Shu's eyes gradually became gentle and he said again: "Yes."

But he didn't tell her that he only had his heart set on her and it would be difficult to get it back. No matter whether other girls were good or bad, it had nothing to do with him.

Wen Jiu wanted to say something more, but found that he had nothing to say.

Even if he was dragged on to say a few more words, it would still come to an end.

She lowered her head and said in a low voice: "I have to leave. It will be difficult to meet in the future."

He really left, left the capital and returned to Qingyun Mountain.

The reluctance in Chen Shu's eyes almost overflowed, but he still said: "...Yes."

Wen Jiu turned her head stubbornly. She didn't have an umbrella. She also knew that Chen Shu would not give her an umbrella, let alone give her a ride.

Chen Shu stood behind and saw her straightening up and walking out for about ten steps. Before she reached the entrance of the alley, her shoulders suddenly shrugged and her head trembled slightly.

Wen Jiu raised his hands and sleeves and wiped his face with all his strength.

The pancake vendor directly opposite the alley entrance recognized her and ran over quickly to hand her a pancake.

Steaming hot.

Wen Jiu held it in his hand, feeling sad in his heart.

She walked all the way to the official road, a few pieces of snow fell on her shoulders, and all the people and things in front of her began to blur.

I'm afraid I won't come back to Xishi again.

A dream of my own was staged here, and it was completely shattered.

Chen Shu felt as if someone had taken him away.

The man just went out.

Chen Miao walked out and stared at the entrance of the alley for a long time.

He knew in his heart what was going on.

She looked at Chen Shu standing at the door and asked tentatively: "Miss Wen is gone?"

Chen Shu did not answer.

Chen Miao felt a little sore. Her brother... was suffering all the way: "Brother will definitely find a better one in the future."

Chen Shu lowered his head and his eyes suddenly turned red: "She is already excellent, no one can be better than her."

But no matter how good it is, it's not his after all.

"Wen Jiu."

Lu Xu walked up to her with an umbrella, raised the umbrella above her head, and covered her tightly.

After a long silence, Wen Jiu raised his head slightly, with a little wetness on his face. It was unclear whether it was melted snow or tears.

Her body seemed to be running hot, and her face was pale and bloodless.

Lu Xu lowered his silent eyes and said, "If you feel uncomfortable, just say it."

Wen Jiu sniffed, and she looked up at Lu Xu with a confused look on her face: "Why did two people with no results meet?"

"Since we met, why can't we be together in the end?"

She suppressed the tremor in her voice, but her heart felt like a knife cutting her, and it was really painful.

Lu Xu couldn't tell what the sourness in his heart represented. He twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Chen Shu is an upright man. He is one of the few clean people in the court. His literary talent and talent for solving cases are indeed rare. of young talents, and you, you are also very good."

In the next sentence, he said helplessly: "But the first time we met in this world was fate, and the stranger we are now has no connection. You are destined to him, but you have no connection."

But Wen Jiu, no matter who you meet, he is the person you should meet in your life.

Wen Jiu ignored it and squatted down, hugging his knees. He was in a daze for a while, then came back to his senses, his face wet with tears.

She still wanted to open her mouth to say something, but a gust of cold wind blew by, very biting, like some kind of silent and decisive answer.
