Flowers bloom without worries

Chapter 37 Breaking the Perception of Each Other (1)

Before leaving, Ye Li decided to meet Xiao Chuhan. When Xiao Chuhan saw Ye Li coming to see him, he was full of expectations. After all, he hadn't received a letter from Wuyou for quite some time.

"Chu Han, do you know? I will leave for the border tomorrow. I don't know when I will be able to return. From now on, don't write to my sister anymore." Ye Li's tone was a little heavy.

Xiao Chuhan frowned: "Why? I can't exchange letters with You'er?"

Ye Li sighed: "You should have heard about my trip to the border this time."

"I know, but what does it matter?"

"In fact, it was my father who discovered the correspondence between you and my sister, so he locked You'er up and didn't allow anyone to visit her, not even me."

Hearing this news, Xiao Chuhan's face turned very ugly: "Why is You'er locked up? How can General Ye treat You'er like this! I will go to the Ye Mansion and explain everything to General Ye!"

"Chu Han, calm down!" Ye Li hurriedly stopped him, "Father doesn't like You'er in the first place. If you go to him now, it will only hurt You'er."

Xiao Chuhan was extremely anxious: "Then what should I do? Should I just watch You'er suffer?"

"Or I should go to my father and ask him to grant me the marriage." Xiao Chuhan suddenly thought of an idea.

Ye Li shook his head: "Do you think that with You'er's current situation and status, the emperor will agree to this marriage? Besides, you are now the crown prince, you must think carefully before doing anything, and you must not act impulsively. Your position is not stable enough, and you need more time and effort."

After hearing what Ye Li said, Xiao Chuhan fell into deep thought. He knew that what Ye Li said made sense, but he really couldn't bear to let You'er suffer such an injustice.

"Have you ever thought about the consequences of your impulsive actions? You'er is still young now, there's plenty of time in the future, right? Why rush now? Once your position is stable, everything you want will naturally be yours." Ye Li's words made sense. Now he was just the crown prince, and he could lose the crown prince position at any time because of what he did. Once his position was stable, there would be no more obstacles between him and You'er.

Just like that, four years passed by like a flash. During these four years, Ye Li had been stationed at the border, and Xiao Chuhan had no contact with Wuyou. Now, Wuyou has grown into a graceful and elegant girl. Although she is not dressed in gorgeous clothes, her simple and elegant appearance highlights Wuyou's peerless beauty.

Since her father cut off all contact with the outside world, Wuyou has never received a letter from Xiao Chuhan. In the past four years, she has never stepped out of the Ye Mansion, and there is no trace of a smile on her face. Every night, she would come to the window alone and stare at the moon outside the window quietly, sitting there blankly, motionless all night.

Wuyou didn't know how she got through these four long and painful years. Her heart was filled with despair and helplessness, as if the whole world had lost its color. She could no longer see her own future and even felt that she might spend her whole life in such a muddle. The lively and cheerful Wuyou who loved to talk and laugh had disappeared, replaced by a taciturn person who didn't like to talk or laugh.

Xiao Chuhan silently looked at Wuyou in front of him, tears falling uncontrollably from the corners of his eyes. They should have been a happy couple, but fate ruthlessly pushed them to the opposite side. Xiao Chuhan gently wiped the tears from his face and turned to leave, but Lanxi held his hand tightly, mumbling something in her mouth. Because the voice was too weak, Xiao Chuhan couldn't hear what Lanxi was saying at all. So he leaned down and put his ear close to Lanxi's lips.

"You'er...what did you say?" Xiao Chuhan asked softly.

Lan Xi used up all her strength and uttered a few words with difficulty: "Don't leave me... Don't leave me..."

Hearing this, Xiao Chuhan's heart seemed to be hit hard by something. He quickly responded: "Okay... I won't leave, I will always be with you..." Xiao Chuhan originally planned to leave, but seeing Lan Xi relying on him so much, he finally sat down. In this way, Xiao Chuhan quietly accompanied Lan Xi and did not let go of her hand all night.

The next morning, Lan Xi slowly opened her eyes and saw Xiao Chuhan lying beside her, and the hand she was holding tightly. She subconsciously wanted to pull her hand back. However, this slight movement woke up Xiao Chuhan, who was sleeping lightly. He raised his head, his eyes full of fatigue and worry.

The two looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment. The surroundings were so quiet that they could hear each other's heartbeats. Just like that, the two were silent for a long time.
