Wrong Marry to Cold CEO - C260
Xue Fu slowly kneeled in front of Yue Ye, his dry lips not moving at all. The most basic form of greetings was already all that she needed. She had only come for the sake of death!
Lowering her eyes, she saw a pair of soft shoes embroidered with golden threads that resembled a dragon soaring through the sky approach her, immediately followed by the aura of Yue Ye blowing right beside her ear, “Bai Xue Fu, you have finally woken up, we are still waiting for you to confess your guilt.”
After finishing his sentence, Eunuch Li came over with black and white text in his hands. Xue Fu swept his gaze across, and with just a glance, he raised his head to look at Yue Ye and said in all seriousness, “Assassinating the Emperor is my, Bai Xue Fu’s, personal act, and has nothing to do with the Bai Family. Xue Fu will not do this and plead guilty!” Her tone was clearly anxious, Yue Ye really wanted to make use of this opportunity to destroy the Bai family!
Ye Yue chuckled, and just as she was about to speak, the empress dowager snatched her away, “Prime Minister Bai has never had a kind heart from the start. Why did you two go through so much trouble to send the two of you to the palace?
“Then does the empress dowager have an unknown plan for Imperial Concubine Yu to be placed in the palace?” Xue Fu laughed coldly as he turned to the empress dowager, completely disregarding whether she was an empress dowager above everyone else. At this point, she was no longer afraid of death, why would she be unhappy? The only thing she was afraid of was that the Emperor would take over the Bai Clan. She had to save the Bai Clan!
“You! Bai Xue Fu —! ” The empress dowager waved a hand at her in exasperation, gnashing her teeth in anger. To his side, Imperial Concubine Yu quickly knelt on the ground, telling Yue Ye in a hurry, “Your majesty, chenqie’s heart is devoted to Your Majesty, and doesn’t dare have any presumptuous thoughts. Please don’t fall for my sister’s scheme and misunderstand chenqie …”
“yufei, have you never heard of the word ‘clear’?” Yue Ye angrily rebuked her, clearly unhappy about her sudden infiltration. Who is clean in the harem? He really couldn’t find one!
After being rebuked, the yufei shrunk his neck and returned to the back of the empress dowager. When he stood up, he did not forget to glare at Xue Fu hatefully. She never thought that Xue Fu would suddenly say such things to Yue Ye, and was naturally anxious in her heart. This was the critical moment after the emperor had stood up. If something went wrong because of this, she would never have the chance to rise again in her life.
Yue Ye habitually leaned forward, her slender arms encircling her waist and lifting her up, the two’s faces were very close to each other. This was his favorite posture. His steel-like arms could wrap around her until it hurt, and his cold gaze could directly strike into her eyes, searching for the most primitive thoughts under her eyes.
The last rays of the setting sun shone on her face, and her long eyelashes cast a fan-like shadow under her eyelids. Those clear eyes that were like water rippled with light, but he was completely unable to see through what she was thinking.
“You don’t need to excuse yourself for Prime Minister Bai. He will die sooner or later, and he won’t be able to escape …”
“Does the emperor think that Xue Fu only has this one reason to assassinate you?” Xue Fu said sarcastically as he pushed him forward. If it was another woman pushing her like this, Yue Ye would definitely not move an inch, but Xue Fu was an expert in martial arts, so after pushing her, Yue Ye took a few steps back before coming to a stop.
Eunuch Li, who had been on high alert all this time, hit Xue Fu in the back with his palm, hitting her right in her old wound. The pain made her fall to the ground, while the guards saw the situation, one of their hands held onto the blade’s hilt, ready to strike if Xue Fu dared to act recklessly. Xue Fu was not afraid of being knocked down, he only felt that there was a kind of blood inside his body that was unceasingly rising. She could only endure it, and ruthlessly swallowed that smell of blood, climbing up from the ground with difficulty, she glared at Yue Ye and shouted indifferently, “You killed Liu Li and destroyed big sister, don’t tell me you think that this reason isn’t enough for me to kill you? I want revenge! Avenge the both of them! ”
In front of Yue Ye, she was weak, crying was not shameful at all.
“You want to kill me? Aren’t you afraid that Zhen will kill you first? ” Yue Ye raised her brows at her, completely unaffected by her tears. For those who wanted to kill him, he would never treat them kindly!
“In these past few days, what difference has there been between living and dying? If Xue Fu is afraid, he will not take action. ” Xue Fu said in grief as she grabbed the white paper and pen on the ground. She wanted to personally write a confession letter for him and then draw a bet.
With his left hand, he held the quill, smoked the ink on the inkstand, and used his other hand to hold the snow-white sleeve. The tip of the brush and the piece of white paper blended together. Wherever it went, the handwriting would be graceful and neat. Perhaps this was just a futile effort, Yue Ye would definitely force her to place a pawn in his own book of crimes. If that was the case, she would admit it!
At the side, the moment the tip of Yue Ye’s pen touched the white paper, she was stupefied, staring at her in astonishment. In his entire life, he had only seen one person writing with his left hand, and that was the white-clothed girl who wrote down the blueprint for him to break the Pear Blossom Array under the Pear Blossom Tree three years ago. And this woman in front of him was writing with her left hand just like her. She even looked like she was writing with her right hand!
The two figures overlapped and intertwined in his mind. He could not remember the girl’s face. But she clearly remembered the faint fragrance of the pear blossoms on her body, remembered every expression she had when she spoke and when she was silent. He thought of that painting that he had never been able to make out its facial features before. Even the Eunuch Li felt that it was Empress Snow …
When Xue Fu finally finished writing the last word, she could no longer hold it in, and a mouthful of blood oozed out from her mouth. A “pu” sound was spat on the black and white paper, as if it was adding the final touch of death to this cruel crime. She wanted to personally hand over this crime to Yue Ye, but unfortunately, she didn’t have the strength to do so anymore.
This mouthful of blood brought Yue Ye back to her senses, and she quickly rushed forward to pick her up from the ground. This time, his arm no longer hurt her like a steel ring. It was gentleness, gentleness she had never felt before, and along with it his expression, his cold eyes, everything was changing, becoming unlike him.
“It’s you …” Yue Ye murmured these two words. He didn’t know what to say next, because he never knew her name, just like how he didn’t know her appearance. In his memory, she was vague and clear. His finger lightly brushed past her cheek. “Why didn’t you tell me that you were there?”
Hearing his words, Xue Fu was surprised, but only for a moment. He looked at him coldly and said: “Your majesty, you have recognized the wrong person. Xue Fu is not one of them.” Her heart … The gentleness on his face, which had been bloodied by her earlier, meant nothing to her. No matter what kind of relationship he had towards Bai Xue Fu who was under the Pear Blossom Tree, it had nothing to do with her. Therefore, she didn’t feel the need to admit it. It was better to let her die with resentment!
“You’re lying!” Yue Ye indignantly growled, “Three years ago, the one who saw you at Miao Feng monastery was you! “Why aren’t you willing to admit it?!” Because of his excitement, his voice was trembling, and the throbbing in his heart caused his heart to beat chaotically and rapidly. Never would he have thought that the girl he had been looking for would be by his side, and he … He was actually so stupid that he did not realize it!
The empress dowager and yufei by her side were shocked by Yue Ye’s sudden change in attitude. After exchanging glances, their gazes shifted between Yue Ye and Xue Fu. No one could understand why Yue Ye would hug her, and why she would say such words. However, at the same time, they also understood one thing: Bai Xue Fu’s fate would change in this instant.
As the last bit of sunset ended, the sky was still bright, the pale white light shining on Xue Fu’s pale and haggard little face. It shone on the blood trickling down from the corner of her mouth, giving off a vague red glint in her eyes.
She suddenly shook her head, and gazed at him with eyes brimming with grief. She ruthlessly swallowed the blood in her mouth as she choked with sobs, “Your Majesty, you are already the emperor, will you still remember the Bai Xue Fu under the Pear Blossom Tree three years ago? I thought you had forgotten. It’s good to forget, but why do you mention it at this time? Don’t you think I have enough regrets to take with me …? “You’re the emperor. Since you’ve become the emperor above tens of thousands of people …”
Blood dripped from the corner of her mouth and dripped onto her snow-white blouse, instantly turning into a few bright red plums. When she felt that she no longer had the strength to continue, she suddenly fell into his warm embrace, her soft body pressed tightly against his chest. He could feel his heart pounding and his body temperature through his clothes.
This was the first time that she had felt his embrace so truthfully. It was so tight … It was as if he wanted to crush her into pieces and then merge them into one with him. His voice was still trembling as he said, “This Emperor once forgot you, but in the second year of my loneliness, I remembered you. I remembered you …”
“Xue Fu, why didn’t you tell us that you were the Xue Fu of three years ago? “You are the person I don’t want to hurt the most, but you are also the person I hurt the most.” Because every time he saw her, he would feel like he was being dragged along by the nose by Prime Minister Bai. Because he could feel that her motive for entering the palace was not pure, he hated her and felt hurt from her actions. Who would have thought that in the end, the one he would hurt was the one he had always wanted to find, the one who had saved his life!
“The Bai Xue Fu standing in front of you right now is just a woman who hates you to the bones. She’s not the Bai Xue Fu from three years ago.” Xue Fu gave a sad smile, as she laid on his ear and choked with emotions: “Yue Ye! You’d better kill me now, or I’ll kill you anyway. ”
Yue Ye smiled bitterly, letting go of her body slightly, her warm hand supporting her lower jaw. Gently, gently caressing the face that was so haggard that it made his heart ache, he muttered to her in a low voice, “I once said that even if you were a poison, I could still swallow you up. “But now … I don’t want to swallow you, I won’t swallow you …”
“In front of you, I am not the emperor, I am just a man, just like three years ago, a man who needed your help!” In these three lonely years, he had tasted the dullness of life. Outside of Yanggang, only he knew how fragile his heart was. How much he wanted to abandon his power and status and return to the simple days.
