The cold husband can't warm me up, I don't love him anymore

In his opinion, Cui Lingyi really intended to break up with Shen Du.

Several times, he was shocked by the unspeakable emotions in Cui Lingyi's eyes.

What kind of eyes are those!

Despair, sadness, vicissitudes, desolation...

He couldn't understand how a girl who was not even sixteen years old could have such a pair of eyes that could see through the world.

On the surface, he is full of youth and still looks like a little child, but his expression and tone cannot conceal the desolation of twilight.

What kind of things does a little girl have to go through to become like that?

After thinking about it, he still felt that it was related to Shen Du.

After all, the only thing Cui Lingyi cared about since she was a child was this man!

However, if she really didn't want to go back to Shangjing with Shen Du, he would never push her out.

For him, as long as Cui Lingyi is still his granddaughter, what does it matter whether she changes or not?

What's more, after she became a different person, she seemed to live more freely and comfortably.

This is what he values ​​most.

Thinking of this, he advised again, "Young Marquis, given Ah Li's current temper, if you force her, the result might be even worse. Why don't you go back to Shangjing first? What do you think?!"

After hearing this, Shen Du nodded subconsciously, then shook his head.

I felt uncomfortable and stuffy in my heart, as if something was about to be cut apart from my body.

His head began to swell and ache, and for a moment he forgot what to say or do, and just stood there blankly.

Li Chong'an glanced at the open window of the west wing and said helplessly, "Young Marquis, in this situation, finding out why Ah Li suddenly changed her mind may be the only solution. What do you think?"

Hearing this solution, Shen Du suddenly came back to his senses.

"Grandfather is right. Let me think about it. Let me think about it..."

He muttered to himself, and suddenly left like the wind.

The black cloak raised a sword-like sharp blade, but the back view made people feel uneasy for no reason.

Li Chongan shook his head.

The child is a good child, it's a pity!

"Come out, everyone is gone!"

The door of the west wing opened and Cui Lingyi walked out quietly.

There was no emotion on her delicate and pretty face, and her deep eyes, which were slightly inconsistent with her age, were also empty and a little lonely.

Li Chongan sighed.

Like this...

It looks like I’m about to lose such a brilliant grandson-in-law!

"Thank you, Grandfather!"

Cui Lingyi bowed and sat across from the tea table.

In front of him was the cup that Shen Du had used. The clear tea was making ripples in the jade cup, and there seemed to be the warmth of his lips.

A picture suddenly appeared in my mind:

There are countless boxes in the dark carved cabinet.

Everything inside was used by Shen Du.

I can’t remember if it was a memory from a previous life or if I have done it countless times in this life.

She followed Shen Du, carefully picking up things he didn't want or accidentally threw away.

His used hairpins, discarded folding fans, broken jade pendants, hairbands, brushes...

Once, Guangyuanlou in Shangjing opened and invited him to have tea.

The white porcelain used is newly fired from the kiln.

Although the cup was not a very transparent jade color, it was very beautiful with a few emerald green leaves on the pure white porcelain.

Just because Shen Du drank two cups of tea from that cup and looked at it a few more times.

She quietly bought the cup, took it home and kept it away.

This was not the only time she had done something so foolish.

If Shen Du knew that she was madly collecting everything that had his scent on it, he would definitely feel ashamed!

She clenched her fingertips, took the teacup in front of her and placed it in the sink beside her.

"Ali, have you really thought it through? Shen Du is a good kid."

Li Chongan spoke hesitantly.

"Grandfather, are you worried that I won't be able to get married?" Cui Lingyi smiled and made tea skillfully.

Li Chongan smiled.

"Our Ah Li is so good, how could she not get married? I should worry about who to marry you to."

After a slight hesitation, he continued, "Grandfather just doesn't want you to regret it in the future. Life is short, and your sincerity should be left to the people you care about most."

The person you care about most?

Cui Lingyi tightened her grip on the teacup.

"Won't regret it."

She did care about Shen Du, but that was now in the past.

Li Chong'an hesitated, but decided to persuade her again.

"Looking at the way the child looked just now, he seemed quite distraught, which shows that he is sincere to you..."

Cui Lingyi giggled and filled Li Chongan's teacup.

"Grandfather, please stop speaking for others. Who is your real grandson?"

Hearing her say this, Li Chongan finally sighed.

"Well, you decide for yourself."

"Well, thanks, Grandpa."

"Go back. Before the child leaves, he might want to see you again, at least to say goodbye."

After getting up and leaving Zhuyou Pavilion, Cui Lingyi had no intention of returning to Lianhuawu.

She originally took her two maids, Bu Yun and Bu Se, and took some things to the medicine garden in the north to visit the little medicine boys.

But halfway through the journey, she thought that Shen Du might go to her grandfather to persuade her to return to Beijing, so she asked the two maids to go ahead and came to Zhuyou Pavilion to tell him what had happened.

Sure enough, just after he finished speaking, before he had time to leave, Shen Du came.

In order to avoid meeting him face to face, she had to hide.

I just don’t know what my grandfather said to Shen Du to get rid of him so easily.

Ginger is still spicy!

She thought silently as she walked upstream along the clear stream toward the herb garden.

The newly recruited herbalists live here, firstly to quickly learn about herbs, and secondly because it is secluded and spacious enough for them to live in.

As for Shen Du, if he wants to leave, let him leave. There is nothing good to see.

When she sees him, she's afraid he'll talk about taking her away or getting married.

She didn't want to hear it.

As soon as I entered the medicine garden, I heard the silver bell-like laughter of the little medicine boys.

"Sister Buse, this butterfly fruit is really delicious."

“Not only is it delicious, it’s also beautiful!”

"You only know how to eat. You haven't even finished identifying all the herbs for today!"

"I'll go after I've eaten the fruit. Are you afraid that I won't be able to recognize all of them?"

"...Sister Bu Yun, look at Twelve Lady, she is still very confident!"

"Okay, you are all good kids, eat first and then study!"

"Yeah!"

"..."

Cui Lingyi listened for a while and a smile gradually appeared on her lips.

How wonderful it is to have a childhood where you can happily do something you like!

But when she thought back to the past fifteen years, there was only one person who filled them - Shen Du.

.....

"Miss, Miss!"

Suddenly, a person chased after me on the road behind me, shouting loudly and urgently.

Cui Lingyi turned around quickly and saw that it was Yuansheng who was in charge of patrolling the valley, so she went to greet him.

"What's wrong? Brother Yuansheng, what happened?"

Yuansheng was panting and couldn't even speak complete words!

"Shen... Lord..."

"Shen Du?" Cui Lingyi suddenly became nervous. "What happened to him?"
