Chapter 1079: Chapter 1080: He Always Has Only One Answer
ng Zhuqing did not dismount; she remained on her horse, leading it by the reins, but her gaze was fixed steadily on Tobanya.
Watching Tobanya cry.
After a long mont, ng Zhuqing spoke softly, “I… I have caused you a lot of pain, haven’t I?”
Tobanya didn’t speak, only looked at ng Zhuqing, her tears continually and silently streaming down. They blurred her vision, making it sowhat difficult for her to clearly see the person before her.
“If that is the case…” After pausing for a while, ng Zhuqing continued, “I respect that. However, I have so words I want to tell you.”
She didn’t wait for Tobanya to speak; ng Zhuqing slowly added, “Once, feeling my appearance was hideous, I thought standing by your side would embarrass you, so I hid my feelings, not wanting you to know.”
“Back then, I didn’t dare hope that you would like .”
“Back then, all I wanted was for you to be well.”
“But… you fell in love with .”
“I ca to terms with it, I understood, but you couldn’t accept it, couldn’t understand, and even, you kept deceiving , ti and ti again, but I wasn’t angry, I just wanted you to be well.”
“You don’t have to leave the Capital. I never forced you to be with , to marry ; why must you leave?”
“If you are in the Imperial Capital, I can be sowhat reassured. If you leave like this, One Person, I won’t know where you are, whether you are well or not. Can I let go of my worries? How could I forget you?”
“If you want to never forget you in my lifeti, to never marry and always be worried about you, then go ahead and leave just like that.”
“This General has finished speaking, Commandery Princess, please do as you wish.” Having said that, ng Zhuqing no longer looked at Tobanya, who was crying like a tearful figure, and emotionlessly spurred her horse with the intent to leave.
But just as her horse passed by Tobanya’s, Tobanya caught hold of ng Zhuqing’s arm.
Two horses, two people, with the horses facing opposite directions, neither looking back at the other, as if ti had stopped, they both remained fixed in that mont.
Tobanya, with tears streaming, clung tightly to ng Zhuqing’s left arm, so tightly that it pained ng Zhuqing, but ng Zhuqing didn’t speak, nor did she brush Tobanya’s hand away.
Compared to the pain in his heart, this pain ant nothing to him.
“Do you know why I pretended not to know about your feelings for despite being well aware?” Suddenly, Tobanya spoke, her voice choked and hardly recognizable.
ng Zhuqing did not turn to look back at Tobanya but faced the direction of the Imperial Capital and answered, “I don’t know.”
Tobanya said, “I thought I was tainted, not worthy of you.”
ng Zhuqing’s throat tightened instantly, painfully tight, “It has always been who was not worthy of you, and it still is… Now, I don’t even care about whether I’m worthy or not, I just want to be with you, but you, you still don’t want …”
Tobanya cried, “I’ve already wronged you; I don’t want to wrong you further…” His face beca this way because of her, and if she were to marry him but couldn’t bear him a son or a daughter, she truly felt even more remorseful.
“You have never wronged ; it has always been my choice. Even if it ant giving up my life for you, I would be willing.”
Finally, Tobanya turned her head, looking at the one who sat on the horse yet no longer turned to glance at her, her tears flowing even more fiercely, “I now want to marry you; do you… would you still take as your wife?”
“No matter whether you are deceiving again or not, I will always have just one answer: I am willing.”
