Chapter 1305: Asura Field?
Jiang Ying wore a jade white gown, her black hair cascading over her shoulders, making her look stunning.She used to love laughing, lively and cheerful, which was what Song Yucheng noticed had changed the most since his return.
However, at this moment, Jiang Ying only looked at Song Yucheng with a face full of pain.
In those eyes, there was pity, self-blame, and helplessness.
She looked at the maid, "Go guard the yard entrance, I need to say a few words to cousin alone."
"But Miss..." The maid felt it was inappropriate and hesitated to leave.
Jiang Ying nodded, "Listen to me, go quickly."
The maid had no choice but to leave.
Only then did Jiang Ying look at Song Yucheng, "Cousin, let me see these letters."
Song Yucheng handed her the letters with red-rimmed eyes.
Jiang Ying read them through carefully, one after another.
Though these letters were sent to Song Yucheng at different times, each was several pages long.
It was clear that Jiang Ying, when writing these, was deeply enamored and delighted with her cousin Song Yucheng.
Like a young girl awakening to love, she confided all her thoughts and experiences untold to her parents to Song Yucheng.
It turns out...
The real Jiang Ying did truly like Song Yucheng.
Her unforeseen arrival, however, threatened to tear apart this relationship.
Jiang Ying raised her head, looking at Song Yucheng’s reddened eyes.
"I’m sorry."
"I don’t want your apology, tell me, do you still like me?"
Jiang Ying had no answer.
She pressed her thin lips together.
The real owner of this body, she didn’t know where they were now.
But looking at Song Yucheng’s almost pained expression,
she realized that they were meant to be a couple bound for life.
She couldn’t pretend the original owner didn’t like him.
Nor was she qualified to make Song Yucheng think Jiang Ying had changed her mind.
Perhaps until she vanished, she might still be thinking of him.
Jiang Ying’s lips trembled twice, and she painfully said, "I used to like you."
Song Yucheng stepped back lethargically.
"Used to like... so now you don’t like me anymore..." he murmured, despondent.
Jiang Ying didn’t know how to comfort him.
However, when she raised her eyes, her gaze caught sight of Prince Qing Bai Beirang, in a robe as red as plum blossoms, standing firmly at the yard’s entrance.
The maid who was originally guarding the door had her mouth covered by his guard, bound to the side.
Prince Qing had obviously heard everything, his eyes became somewhat somber, even self-mocking for an unknown reason.
"It seems my timing is off, have I interrupted your heart-to-hearts?"
He said, walking over with feigned lightness.
But when Prince Qing reached Jiang Ying, he forcefully wrapped his arm around her shoulders.
He looked at Song Yucheng as if declaring his sovereignty.
Jiang Ying didn’t want to embarrass Song Yucheng too much.
She said to Prince Qing, "There’s no need to say that, Prince. Cousin’s sincere affection is something I can’t match now."
After saying that, Jiang Ying clearly felt Prince Qing’s grip on her shoulder tighten slightly.
Bai Beirang’s profile appeared exceptionally cold and stern.
He stayed silent, only the downward movement of his throat showed how angry he was yet bitterly suppressed it.
Song Yucheng looked at her, a self-mocking smile on his face, tears streaming down.
"Thanks, cousin, for sparing my dignity in the end. Youthful affection ultimately lost to power, it’s me who falls short, not you unworthy."
"Tomorrow, I will leave the Capital, apologies for this disturbance."
After speaking, Song Yucheng suddenly raised his hand, throwing away the letters like waste paper, as the sheets expressing deep affection fluttered down like snow, he turned and left.
