Chapter 42 Why We Are Like This (2)
"Sometimes fate is so wonderful. When I have given up all hope, God still lets us meet."
"I took you away from the general's mansion. Those few days were the most unforgettable time for me. I never thought that you, who have always been a coward, would do such a bold thing."
"You said my father was a very strict man and didn't like me since I was a child. If I run away from the general's mansion like this, my father will definitely punish me twice as much if he finds me."
"How could you and I have thought so much at that time? You just wanted to escape from that suffocating home as soon as possible. There was no love or affection in it."
"Where did you take me after I left the General's Mansion?"
"I brought you to my private villa, which is only known to me and Xingye."
"That period was our happiest time. I took you to many places. I painted and you played the piano and sang. We agreed that when I ascended the throne and stabilized my position and you were old enough to get married, I would marry you as my only queen."
"What happened after that?"
"General Ye knew that you had escaped from the General's Mansion. He was furious and sent many people to search for you throughout the city."
"Finally my father found me."
"At that time, I was just a prince. You saw my dilemma and were afraid that General Ye would make a big deal out of it. You took the initiative to ask to go home, but I knew that once you returned to the general's mansion, it would be difficult for us to meet again."
"However, for the sake of our future, we still choose to temporarily give up our current short-term happiness. We must always plan for the long-term future."
That day, Xiao Chuhan and Wuyou said their final goodbyes. Xiao Chuhan reached out and stroked Wuyou's head, looking at Wuyou tenderly.
"You'er, you really won't let me take you back?"
"Brother Han, I can handle it myself, don't worry about me, I'm fine."
"Put this bottle of ointment on your own body and don't give it to anyone else."
Xiao Chuhan handed the plaster in his hand to Wuyou, who took it with a bitter smile on her face. Wuyou knew what her fate would be if she went back. It was all her own choice. She didn't blame anyone, and she would bear the consequences herself.
"Thank you, Brother Han."
"Brother Han, I want to go back."
Wuyou turned around and prepared to leave, but Xiao Chuhan grabbed Wuyou's hand and held her in his arms.
"You'er, don't forget the agreement between us."
"When I ascend the throne, I will marry you in style and make you my queen."
"Well, You'er will wait for Brother Han to marry me."
Xiao Chuhan asked Xingye to send Wuyou to the outside of the general's mansion. Wuyou and Xingye simply said goodbye and walked towards the general's mansion alone.
Wuyou entered the general's mansion, but Xiao Chuhan was still worried, so he stayed outside the mansion for more than half an hour and only left when he saw that there was no movement in the mansion.
At that time, Xiao Chuhan didn't know what kind of cruel punishment Wuyou received after returning to the general's mansion. From that day on, Xiao Chuhan and Wuyou never met again for several years, nor did they exchange letters. Xiao Chuhan also tried many ways to try to get news about Wuyou, but in the end, he returned in vain.
Many years passed like this, and Xiao Chuhan successfully ascended the throne, but he never heard from Wuyou again.
