The Regent's little cutie is four and a half years old

Chapter 971 I Can't Accept It
It was a lily-of-the-valley fringed hairpin, which was very exquisite, and one could tell it was carefully selected.

Seeing that she had opened it, Cui Ziping explained: "I went to the street a few days ago and saw this hairpin by chance. I thought it was very suitable for the princess, so I bought it."

The affection in Cui Ziping's eyes was undisguised, stronger than before, if Gu Qingning couldn't see it, she would be a fool.

Cui Ziping has been with her so many times, and these days her worries cannot be faked. Cui Ziping felt that the time had come, so he thought of giving it to her first, hoping that she would accept it.

If she accepts it, no matter whether she has him in her heart or not, it means that she doesn't hate him and is willing to get along with him.

But if you don't accept it, the meaning is obvious.

Under Cui Ziping's expectant eyes, Gu Qingning seemed a bit difficult. Only then did she realize that it was so difficult to reject someone.

You see, his eyes are full of expectation, his heart is full of her, and he can no longer hold everything in the world.

There was even yearning for the future in his eyes, but Gu Qingning felt cruel when he thought of breaking all his thoughts.

But if she accepted it, wouldn't it be a kind of suffering for her?

Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. Gu Qingning felt that it was better to stop his thoughts, otherwise he would only want more if it gave him hope.

She already has someone else in her heart, and she will not accept anyone else until Ye Huaichu expresses her attitude to her.

Gu Qingning covered the box in her hand and handed it to Cui Ziping again.

The light in Cui Ziping's eyes slowly dimmed when she handed her over.

Is she... unwilling to accept?
Gu Qingning looked at him apologetically, "Master Cui, I can't take this hairpin. You keep it for yourself and give it to your beloved girl in the future."

"But..." But my beloved girl is you.

The rejection in Gu Qingning's eyes was obvious, she knew what it meant to accept the hairpin, but she didn't accept it.

Cui Ziping lowered his head, and it took him a long time to reach out to take the box.

Seeing him like this, Gu Qingning felt uncomfortable, as if she had done something heinous.

"Master Cui, you are very good and deserve better people. I am very relaxed with you these days, and I also like to read your scripts. Thank you very much. But in order to avoid some things, let's cut off contact in the future. ..."

Gu Qingning knew that these words were cruel to him, but she had to cut it clean, otherwise she would die of exhaustion like Ye Xunnan?

One Ye Xunnan was enough, she simply couldn't take another one.

Cui Ziping kept his head down, Gu Qingning couldn't see the expression on his face, "Well, what the Princess said is true."

His appearance made Gu Qingning a little worried, "Are you okay? I didn't reject you because you were bad. I always regarded you as a friend before, and I didn't think about that at all. I don't know what I did. , let you misunderstand, it is my fault."

"Don't say that, the princess, it's the lower officials who shouldn't miss the princess."

"That's not what I meant." Gu Qingning didn't know what to say.

"Your Majesty understands."

Coming out of Cui's mansion, Gu Qingning's heart was always pressed by a stone, making it hard for her to breathe.

Oh, what is this called.

After Gu Qingning left the Cui Mansion, the news was sent back to the palace.

"What you said is true, Ning'er really rejected Cui Ziping?"
