Chapter 283: Revealing one’s true feelings (2)

"Yueyin, do you know? If I lived in a bustling modern city, I would be able to fly freely like a bird, and choose my favorite partner at will, without having to consider the secular vision and constraints. But fate has led me to this era, making me the most honorable queen of the Chu State, and Xiao Chuhan's first wife."

"Here, people's fates seem to be pulled by invisible threads, and it is difficult to break free. Although I am now the queen, I am just a chess piece in this huge chess game. Many things and people are beyond my control.

"Xiao Chuhan cares for me meticulously, and his tenderness and care for me are real. I can feel his feelings, and I am willing to try to accept this feeling."

"But Ye Chen also loves you deeply."

"But I wasn't their first crush. I don't understand feelings, but I know that you have to love someone wholeheartedly. My appearance only gave them a temporary sense of novelty."

Lan Xi understands Ye Chen and Xiao Chuhan's dedication and sincerity to her, but she also knows their original intentions. They once loved You'er deeply, and her appearance was just an episode in their lives. She doesn't want to be a substitute in their hearts, and she doesn't want to lose herself in this relationship.

"Since they themselves can't be sure of their own feelings, why should I struggle between these two?"

"Xi'er, your state of mind is beyond my expectation. Since you have figured it out, that's good. I believe that you will be able to shine here."

"Yueyin, I come from the future and have seen too much prosperity and desolation, so I have long since become indifferent to these kinds of love affairs. But since fate has brought me here, I must not let it down. I will use the knowledge and skills I have learned in the modern era to inject new vitality into this land and create a career of my own. In this way, my life will be more fulfilling and meaningful."

Yue Yin stared at Lan Xi, her eyes full of appreciation and admiration. Yue Yin nodded gently, her voice full of determination: "Xi'er, no matter what you do, I will support you unconditionally. In the future, as long as you need my help, I will do my best to help you."

A warm current surged in Lan Xi's heart. Lan Xi suddenly remembered something and asked, "Yue Yin, where is Li Er? Why can't I see her?"

Yue Yin frowned slightly, sighed, and said helplessly: "I locked her up. That girl was too willful and left without saying a word. Li'er is my only relative now, and I can't let her get into any trouble. I have already lost the person I love the most, and I can't lose Li'er again."

Lan Xi gently patted Yue Yin's shoulder and comforted her: "Yue Yin, don't worry too much. Li'er is so smart, she will take good care of herself. Besides, I believe you can find a suitable way to communicate with her and let her understand your concerns and expectations."

"Xier, what are your plans next?"

Lan Xi pondered for a moment, then said seriously: "When my body is almost recovered, I plan to leave here and return to Chu. Xiao Chuhan must have a lot of things to deal with, and I can't let me delay his important matters."

Yue Yin looked at Lan Xi, her eyes full of reluctance: "Xi'er, why are you in such a hurry to leave? I still have many places I want to take you to see."

Lan Xi smiled gently and explained: "Yue Yin, I appreciate your kindness. But I am the queen of Chu, and I cannot ignore national affairs because of my own personal affairs. I believe that we will have the opportunity to meet again in the future."

Since that heart-to-heart talk with Yue Yin, Lan Xi's body has gradually recovered. After seeing that Lan Xi's body has recovered, Ye Chen decided to leave. During this period, Ye Chen did not disturb Lan Xi, and Yue Yin told Lan Xi that Ye Chen was leaving. After Lan Xi learned the news, she immediately went to find Ye Chen. Lan Xi didn't understand why Ye Chen was going to leave without saying a word.

"Why are you planning to leave without saying a word?" Lan Xi's voice came from behind. Ye Chen hesitated for a moment after hearing Lan Xi's voice, but turned around.

Ye Chen smiled and said, "I have stayed outside for too long. It is time for me to go back."

Lan Xi came to Ye Chen and looked at him. She had a lot to say, but she didn't know how to start. After a long time, Lan Xi finally mustered up the courage to say, "Ye Chen, thank you..."

Ye Chen interrupted Lan Xi and said gently, "There's no need to be polite between you and me."

After a moment of silence, Lan Xi said, "After this separation, it will probably be difficult for us to meet again in the future. I hope you can take good care of yourself and find your own happiness as soon as possible."

Ye Chen felt a sharp pain in his heart when he heard Lan Xi's words. Lan Xi didn't know why he said such a stupid thing.

Ye Chen looked at Lan Xi with a smile and said softly, "You should be happy too."

After saying that, Ye Chen turned around and left without much nostalgia. Lan Xi looked at Ye Chen's back as he left, her heart filled with loss and reluctance. She didn't know what this separation meant, nor did she know if she would see Ye Chen again in the future. But she knew that no matter what, she would always remember the time she met Ye Chen.
