Chapter 748: You Don’t Love Enough and Are Also Unworthy of Love
This was all she could do. As to whether he believed it or not, it depended on her Imperial Brother. She had already done her best.
Her Imperial Brother owed Dai’er. If he called off the wedding at this time, it was still worth it, even if the Imperial Family’s prestige was lost.
“Lin’er…”
Xi Lin looked back at Xi Jin and gave a derisive smile as she said, “My brother, you are a prince of the nation, shouldering the responsibility of the world. But have you thought about whether your conduct and deeds in the past three years reflected this responsibility? You have already lost your mind and listened to Shen Yunya on every single thing. Everything must be discussed with her.
“Are you going to question her in person on what I said today? Then you will only believe after you listen to her explanation. If I were you, I’d pretend that nothing had happened with regards to the questioning and then investigate it myself secretly.”
Xi Lin put away her sarcastic smile and said, deeply saddened, “Brother, you have to have your own opinion. Do not rely on a few words from Shen Yunya to live. You are unable to find Dai’er because you do not love enough and are unworthy of love!”
She found that after Dai’er’s death, her Imperial Brother had sunk into a morbid state. It was as if Shen Yunya was his life raft that he had to clutch onto tightly in order to keep breathing and live.
She had not thought so before. However, since the appearance of Dai’er, she found that everything was wrong as if she had been hoodwinked by Shen Yunya and involuntarily believed her words.
It was a sad and shameful thing.
You do not love enough and are unworthy of love!
Hearing these words, Xi Jin’s body slumped in the chair as if all of his strength had been drained dry. His mind was a blank, and he could not think at all.
It was a long time before he got up in a daze and left as if in a trance. If someone followed behind him, he subconsciously waved the people away as if directing them not to follow him.
When Shen Yunya heard the report, she came to the courtyard where Shen Qingdai had lived before. She saw Xi Jin sitting on the wisteria swing in the courtyard, looking at the blooming peony flowers everywhere in the yard. The hollow expression in his eyes made her uneasy. She called out, “Big Brother Jin?”
Big Brother Jin often came here, but she had never seen him like he was at this time.
Hearing the timid and sweet voice made Xi Jin looked up somewhat in a daze. He looked at the person standing in the courtyard. He was a little confused for a while, and he involuntarily called out, “Dai’er, you are back.”
Shen Yunya’s body suddenly stiffened. Her hands involuntarily clenched. A hint of hate flashed across her eyes, but it was only for a moment. She returned to normal and came forward with a smile. She said, “Big Brother Jin, I am Ya’er.”
Hearing this sentence, Xi Jin’s hollow eyes gradually cleared. The person in front of him also became distinct. His face was full of disappointment as he averted his gaze to look at that area of peony flowers and said, “Ah. It’s you, Ya’er.”
Shen Yunya felt that there was something wrong with Xi Jin, and she slowly stepped forward. She stood next to the swing and asked, “Big Brother Jin, are you thinking of Older Sister again?”
Big Brother Jin had built this wisteria swing specially for Shen Qingdai. Those brightly colored peony flowers were also planted by Big Brother Jin. Every flower and plant here were personally tended to by Big Brother Jin.
Because, supposing that Shen Qingdai said she liked something, even if she did not say it, as long as there was a look of interest in her eyes, Big Brother Jin would take the initiative to carry it out. After he had done it, it would be said that Jiang Ying had specially done it for Shen Qingdai because she would be happier that way.
But for her, these were all things that irritated her. She wished she could burn them all and never to set eyes on them again.
Xi Jin lifted his eyes and stared at her to ask, “Did Dai’er really die from her illness?”
