Chapter 460: Devouring His Heart

re her fragrance had been, Chu Tianqi felt a strange sense of loss."Everyone says that your archery skills are the best in the capital, brother. Could you teach me" Xiao Yuge looked at him with a pure..."You embroidered this so ugly, don't wear it!" Xiao Yuge hurriedly reached out to grab the pouch.

Unexpectedly, Qian Tingxuan instinctively took a step back and then hung it up again: “This was embroidered by you for me personally. I have to wear it every day.”

"But it's too ugly." Xiao Yuge knew her embroidery skills weren't that great. Even the embroidered samples from the Ruyi Embroidery Shop, if they were wrong, would still be better than hers.

“This is filled with your sincerity, your affection for me. It's not ugly at all.” Qian Tingxuan treated it like a precious treasure.

"As a prince, you shouldn't carry such an ugly pouch. People would laugh at you if they saw it! If you truly like the one I made, next time I'll seriously learn from Sister Feng and make a beautiful one for you."

"No need, this one is enough, because it's unique in the world, just like you." Qian Tingxuan caressed her fair face. It was good, her little face had recovered its rosy complexion. Heaven knows, during those days she was unconscious, every time he saw her pale, bloodless face, he would always be afraid. She would sleep and never wake up, leaving him.

"Everyone is unique in the world, and so are you!" she replied softly, a rare moment of tenderness.

"Little song, I am rather greedy. I want to be the one and only in your heart forever, alright"

In my heart, you are one of a kind. Her answer was without hesitation, nor was she lying. She didn't want to delve into whether she loved him, but she knew that in her heart, he was unique.

"You are also unique to me..." He lowered his head and gently kissed her lips. Compared to before's domineering, this time, it was much more tender.

He didn't overstep boundaries, but rather stopped at the right moment.

Xiao Yuge silently nestled in his chest, listening to his erratic heartbeat. A person's words and actions can deceive, but a heartbeat cannot. She had just truly felt his intense love, but the more she knew, the more her heart fluttered.

"Little song, if one day you discover that your biological parents are extraordinary, perhaps they were forced to separate from you because of some hardship, and if they both oppose us being together, will you leave me" Because he cared, so he was afraid of losing her. Although he hadn't gotten concrete evidence yet, he seemed certain that if everything was true, would she really still stay here

They didn't raise me, even if they had their reasons, they weren't part of my life for the past decade. So how could they have any say in the next few decades Even if they were my biological parents, in my last life, I died without knowing who they were. This time around, even if I found them, so what They couldn't protect me, why did they bring me into this world

When Qian Tingxuan heard this, he stared at her in astonishment. Only then did he realize in surprise that these eyebrows and eyes, this proud and stubborn demeanor, were almost identical to that person's. Although there was no evidence, at this moment he was almost certain.

"Little song, will you leave me" There was no affirmative reply. Qian Tingxuan began to worry: "Will you leave without a word" This was the deepest fear in his heart.

"Qian Tingxuan, what's wrong with you" She subconsciously wanted to change the subject: "The moonlight outside is very nice. Why don't we go up to the rooftop and look at the moon"

“Little Song, you haven’t answered my question.” Qian Tingxuan saw through her avoidance and became even more certain of what he thought: one day, she would secretly leave him.

Xiao Yu's song raised her eyes, just meeting his star-like gaze. For some reason, her heart skipped a beat. Her mind raced, trying to figure out how to answer him. She would leave this place, perhaps never to return. Yet, there seemed to be a faint reluctance in her heart. What was going on

“Little song......” A warm and broad hand gently touched her face. He had met countless people, so he could see right through the apprehension in her eyes. Sometimes, he really wanted to just take her without a care, then get her pregnant with his child. Perhaps that way, she wouldn't think about leaving anymore. But every time this thought came up, it was brutally suppressed by reason: How could he bear to hurt her like that

He wanted to hold onto her, but he was afraid of losing her. This contradiction made him, who had always been calm, unable to remain so. The thoughts of losing her were like seeds that took root in his heart and sprouted. They grew little by little, gnawing at his heart like ants...

"Sorry..." Xiao Yuge turned her face away. She couldn't deceive him anymore, nor could she respond to him. She was the daughter of Qiyun, and once she agreed to be with him, when the truth was revealed, he wouldn't have to wait for the poison to take effect. With the emperor's suspicious heart, he would definitely attack him. She owed him too much and didn't want to drag him down any further.

A simple apology, yet it shattered both of their hearts. Qian Tingxuan stared blankly at her, as if he hadn't recovered from her apology. He had always thought that she just didn't understand love and responded a little slower, but he had never imagined that there was never a place for him in her heart.

Those past beauties, like a blunt knife, were repeatedly torturing his most sensitive nerves. His mind was filled with her not loving him. But besides anger, he felt more heartbreak. He didn't believe she had never loved him; he believed she must have had feelings for him at some point. What could be better than willingly giving your heart, and what could be more foolish than self-deception

"Little song, I don't know what reason makes you refuse me again and again. But, I want you to know that no matter how many times you reject me, I won't let go. You are mine, and only mine!" His eyes were full of possessiveness. He gambled that she had once felt something for him, even just for a moment, and he would have won.

"Qian TingXuan..." Xiao Yuge wanted to say something, but when she met his gaze, she swallowed it back down. Why was her heart so pained She didn't love him, she had always only been using him, hadn't she But why did her chest hurt so much Was the wound inside still not healed

“Little song, maybe I pushed you too hard, that's why you are afraid, and want to escape. I will give you time, the freedom you want. You can go anywhere you like, but here, this will always be your home.” Her heart ached like it was being ripped apart. She wanted to see the outside world, to fly freely like a bird. And he would grant her that, giving her the freedom she craved, only hoping that when she grew tired and weary, she would return to his side.d and waved her arm towards An Ling in the distance."Miss, are you alright You scared me to death!" An Ling ran over, her voice trembling with tears, the moment she saw Xiao Yufu.>“I just happened to...
