Chapter 1952: She Cried for a Long Time before Letting Go
In Ye Jie’s impression, Little Apple had always been soft and cuddly.
She was very obedient.
She had never done anything out of line.
She was the model young lady of aristocratic families. When other parents mentioned her, they would always give her a thumbs up and praise her.
She must have needed a lot of courage and determination to leave the capital and her parents this time.
Ye Jie felt more guilty.
Even though he had been avoiding eye contact with her all these years and rarely saw her, he had still hurt her.
After Yan Hua and Bo Yan’s family left the room, Mu Sihan also left because he had something to do in the palace.
Nan Zhi waved her hand, asking the others to leave.
She looked at Ye Jie, who was sitting there quietly. This child looked noble and elegant, but he was stubborn. He had thought that Little Apple was his sister since she was young and now, he really regarded her as his sister.
But what could she blame him for?
Even Little Apple knew that feelings could not be forced.
As a mother, was she still going to force him?
She knew very well that there were many reasons why he had agreed to meet her today, but love was not one of them.
“Forget it. Your Auntie Yan will probably ask Kevin to go over and help Little Apple periodically. I hope she can get better soon.” Nan Zhi sighed. “Little Apple deserves better. I don’t think there will be a good life if she were to marry someone like you, who is so dense and focused on work.”
As Nan Zhi spoke, she glared at her son.
“You were so cute when you were young and even knew how to help your father woo me. Why are you like a block of wood now that you’ve grown up? Which girl will still like you in the future?”
Ye Jie was not angry even though he was deemed worthless by his mother. His expression remained indifferent.
Nan Zhi thought that it was probably very difficult to see her son being crazy in love!
…
After Bo Cixue got on the plane, she turned off her phone.
She was sitting in the first row of the first-class cabin by the window.
The passengers sitting beside her had not arrived yet and she was not in the mood to look around.
She fastened her seatbelt and seemed to have fallen into an abyss.
All of her energy seemed to have been sucked away.
Her thoughts drifted far away.
Her memory had always been outstanding and she remembered clearly what happened when she was a year old.
At that time, she was waving her fair and tender arms like a little follower, following behind Ye Jie and calling him Brother Husband.
He must have been very annoyed at her then!
But she was too young at that time and did not think that there was anything wrong with her actions.
After attending primary school, she felt that Brother Xiaojie was even more handsome and charming.
Back then, she was in sixth grade, but he skipped grades and went to university.
He was the most handsome person in school. Every time she went to the university to look for him, she would see many beautiful girls leaning against his classroom window.
At that time, he was already working with the King and came to school at irregular hours.
But she had been sweet and obedient since she was young and knew how to act coquettishly. She would find out from Uncle Yi Fan whenever he went to school.
Later, everyone knew that he had a younger sister from a rich family because she visited so often.
Those pretty girls would ask for his contact details or ask her to pass on their gifts.
Every time she went, she would carry a bag of gifts.
However, those older sisters who sent gifts did not know that the love letters she received had long been thrown away by her. She would eat whatever gifts were edible and put whatever was not edible in her room as decoration.
There was once when she came out of school with a heavy bag and went to a deserted place. She threw the letter into the rubbish bin and gave food to several beggars. She had really eaten too much. Mommy said that girls who looked too fat were not good-looking, so she did not dare to eat those desserts anymore.
When she was done, she turned back and saw a teenager in a white shirt and blue uniform standing at the alley pushing a bicycle.
At that time, her face was so red it looked like it had been baked by the blazing sun.
She turned to run, but he came to her on his bicycle.
“Why are you running away? Brother Xiaojie won’t blame you. Just don’t accept their gifts in the future, Brother Xiaojie doesn’t like them.”
She sat on the back seat of his bicycle, nodding with a red face and said softly, “Brother Xiaojie, then… what kind of girl do you like?”
What did he reply?
He seemed to have replied, “I haven’t met the one yet. I’m not sure.”
She seemed to have lost sleep that night.
She was really precocious. She was only in sixth grade, but she already liked someone to the point of insomnia.
Bo Cixue already knew that he did not like her but she did not want anything in return. She just wanted to like him silently.
But it seemed like the people around her knew how much she liked him.
How hard would it be to get along with each other after that?
She had to admit that her heart ached terribly when she heard him tell the Queen that she was only his younger sister.
But she did not blame him at all.
She blamed herself.
She had pushed him into a corner.
He clearly did not like her, but in order to make her life better, he forced himself to be with her.
Ever since he was young, he had always been an older brother. Even when something like that happened to Princess Qingcheng, he had always taken the burden for her.
Did she really want to use her illness to force him to do something he did not like? She did not want to be so cruel!
She knew that if she went, they might become husband and wife.
Once she became the Princess Consort as she wished, no one would laugh at her for climbing up the social ladder or daydreaming anymore.
But did she want to continue being so selfish?
After so many years, was she still living in her own fantasies? Was she going to touch his heart one day?
In the past few years, he had been busy with work and she rarely saw him.
He was avoiding arousing suspicion. Of course, she knew all about it.
However, she had loved him for so many years and her heart felt empty when she suddenly wanted to let go.
Her tears slowly blurred her vision.
She rarely cried. Even when she was extremely sad, her eyes would only turn red.
But at this moment, she could no longer hold back her emotions.
She needed to vent and relieve herself.
There was no one familiar with her here, so she did not need to act like a well-off young lady.
Hot tears fell from her eyes.
“Young Master Lian, our seats are not next to each other, but I want to sit with you!” A coquettish voice sounded in the first-class cabin, and the woman pouted as she held on to a very handsome and ostentatious boy.
The boy was wearing tattered jeans, a blue diamond stud in his left ear, as he chewed on gum, looking arrogant.
The woman glanced at the first row by the window and saw a slender figure sitting there. Just by looking at the figure’s back, one would feel a sense of danger and feel a rush of excitement. The woman immediately held the boy’s arm. “Young Master Lian, why don’t I go talk to someone and ask her to change seats with me?”
Young Master Lian shrugged. “Do whatever you want.”
The woman walked to the first row and was about to say something when she saw the girl wearing earphones, her face full of tears.
The woman froze.
She had never seen a girl who was so beautiful when she cried.
Even if she was a woman, she wanted to go forward and protect and cherish her.
That woman, who usually had a glib tongue, suddenly seemed to have been fixed in place. He frowned impatiently. “What’s wrong? If you don’t get a change, then just sit in your seat.”
The woman hummed and sat down in her seat in the aisle.
The corners of Young Master Lian’s lips twitched. This woman was so obedient.
Young Master Lian was a little curious. Who was that woman who sat motionless like a statue and made his female companion listen to him after one glance?!
Young Master Lian sat down and glanced at the woman sitting beside him casually.
Even he, who was used to seeing beauties, was stunned.
F*ck, she was too beautiful. How could she be so beautiful when she was crying?
Bo Cixue did not notice the gaze of the person beside her and was still immersed in her own thoughts.
Her mind kept recalling the memories she had with Brother Xiaojie.
Then she realized that their moments alone were only in primary school.
Once she entered junior high and high school, he seemed even busier.
If she wanted to see him, she could only see him on TV sometimes.
They were invited to the palace for the Lunar New Year.
But at that time, he was surrounded by people and she could only look at him from afar.
The tears in Bo Cixue’s eyes flowed even harder.
Why did she only realize that now?
In order to help her, he promised the Queen to marry her. He must be feeling very conflicted and miserable, right?
She had wanted to give him the best since she was young, but her existence had created a burden and pain for him. She really deserved to die!
The more she thought about it, the more tears fell from her eyes.
She must not burden him in the future.
He was her best Brother Xiaojie and she would support and respect anyone he liked in the future!
Perhaps one day, she would find a man who loved her and they would each have their own happy lives.
The plane took off and flew into the clouds.
Lian Chen looked at the girl beside him. She had been crying since the plane took off and was still crying after flying for an hour.
Besides, her crying did not affect anyone else since she did not make any noise.
Only two streams of tears kept flowing from her eyes, as if she wanted to finish up all of her tears in this lifetime.
God, how could there be such a woman in this world?
Why was she crying?
Was there something that made her cry like this?
Young Master Lian looked at his female companion and muttered in confusion, “Did her parents die? Why is she crying like this?”
The woman shook her head. “Do you want to pass her a tissue?”
“Forget it. I don’t want to be nosy.”
Up until the plane landed, Young Master Lian slept and woke up several times. As long as he turned back, he would be able to see the girl beside him sitting upright, the tears on her face still flowing.
She had actually cried for the whole time.
But it was strange. Her tears stopped flowing the moment the plane landed.
Her expression was so calm that it seemed like nothing had happened. If not for her red and swollen eyes, Young Master Lian would have thought that he was hallucinating.
Young Master Lian got off the plane with his female companion. When Bo Cixue passed by him, she said lightly, “You’re the one whose parents have died.”
Young Master Lian froze.
F*ck, she was wearing earphones but could hear what he was saying?
