Today the palace holds a birthday banquet of the queen mother. The event was celebrated in a simple way that also invited some limited palace officials for the fourth and top officials. Even so, still the number of invited guests is still quite a lot for a simple banquet size.
" My wife happy birthday. I hope the next years we can still get through it together, living in harmony and loving each other. "
At his old age, there was no other hope that Sima Shao wanted to offer other than living with his beloved wife.
" Thank you, Your Majesty. "
After the words from Sima Shao, continued from Sima Rui and family, A Hua with her husband and son also gave a speech. Not to miss Sima Dan and his family also gave their congratulations and hope.
" Thank you for your congratulations and prayers. Even if it's just a simple banquet, I hope you all can enjoy it. No need to wait anymore, let's start this banquet. "
After the queen mother gave her words of greeting, immediately everyone began to enjoy the wine and food that continued to be served by the waiter. Everyone seemed happy, but not with A Fei.
Jingu's cheating made him even more wary of new people. He did not want to make any more mistakes that would make one of his family back a victim. Actually A Feng had already stressed that it was not his fault, but the girl continued to blame herself.
"Daughter, we haven't seen each other in a long time. " A Fei turned his head and saw Jinfu coming over with a cup of wine in hand.
A Fei smiled faintly, "young master Jiang, how are you? "
Jingu was a little dislikeful of A Fei's call to him, as if there was some distance between them. However Jingu understood, considering that they were currently in a public place and many pairs of eyes were watching them.
" My good news is princess. I'm quite curious, where did you buy the Queen Mother's gift. If you don't mind can you tell me where to get it. I want it too. "
Just for information, as a gift A Fei queen mother makes a beauty cream that is able to disguise fine wrinkles make the appearance look younger giving the impression of youth in anyone who wears it. Which woman doesn't want to look beautiful? And as expected, the queen mother liked it very much.
A Fei who had previously smiled suddenly quietly upon hearing Jinfu's question which was quite ambiguous.
Both of A Fei's eyes narrowed, hesitantly he asked, "Do you also want to use beauty cream, young master Jiang? "
He thought could Jiang Jinfu be a metrosexual?
Jinfu chokes, "Ti-no. Please don't misunderstand me. I want beauty cream, but not for me. Except for the women in the Jiang residence. I'm sure the female elders in the residence also want it. " Rush Jinfu explained. Don't want the girl in front of him to misunderstand and think he's a dandy guy.
" So that's it.. I made the cream myself. If young master Jiang wants to, I can make some for you. "
" really? thank you princess. I'm sure they'll like it. ".
Actually it was just a random reason for Jinfu to be able to chat with A Fei. Especially after Jingu's troubles, the woman never came out and was more secretive than usual.
The two continued to talk until they did not realize there were two pairs of eyes that continued to look at them without blinking as if they did not want to miss a single move from A Fei and Jinfu. Both of them were jealous of their closeness.
The sun sank and the previously blue sky turned dark, but the banquet was still not over. A Fei was tired, he decided to return early. After saying goodbye to the rest of his family, A Fei immediately left the hall.
The night air hit his face, his cheeks felt cold. In winter, the temperature becomes lower. He rubbed his hands together to make them warmer. But suddenly his steps came to a halt when he heard the conversation of several girls.
" Wasn't that woman a bitch. It was presumptuous of him to talk to young master Jiang. Miss Bai, why are you still so calm after seeing that. "
" Don't talk like that. I'm just the future wife of young master Jiang. I have no right to forbid him from speaking to whom. People will think I'm a narrow-minded woman if I do that. "
" Ah, you are so kind Miss Bai, it is only you who deserves to be with young master Jiang. "
" No-no. Princess A Fei was also worthy. She is a princess. His status is even higher than mine. "
Other women chimed in. " What a great daughter who has been married and divorced. Like worn-out shoes, she was just an inappropriate widow with a single man like young master Jiang. "
" Don't talk just about anything. If someone else hears it, you'll get the punishment for insulting a royal. "
The woman who had previously said A Fei was like a worn out shoe was suddenly silent. He was afraid that others would hear and report him. It's his future if it happens.
Essentially a boneless tongue, that's why it's so hard to control.
There was no trace of emotion on A Fei's face. But Xiao Er knew that the master was holding back his anger. His hands knew strong, until his long nails were able to pierce the flesh.
" Daughter, let me scold them. How presumptuous they are to insult you. "
" stop. Leave 'em. There is no point in arguing with them because what they say is true. I am a widow. If we go there, it will only embarrass ourselves. " A Fei immediately left the place and headed straight to her room.
" Leave me alone Xiao Er. I don't want anyone coming to my room. "
" Good Princess. "
A Fei turned off the candles one by one and instantly the room turned pitch-black. He spread his tired body on the bed and immediately covered it with a blanket.
At midnight, someone sneaks in. It was so easy for that person to enter as if it had become a habit.
The clouds that had previously hidden the moon were slowly moving. Let the moonlight in and hit the face of the intruder.
Jingu!
That figure was Jingu.
" Why is no one on guard? " Jingu was astonished when he saw that none of the bodyguards were standing guard in front of A Fei's bedroom door. Because there should be two guards on guard.
Very lightly, Jingu kept his steps silent. He deliberately went back inside the palace to see A Fei, considering that only today the palace guard was not too tight due to the queen mother's birthday party.
" You finally showed up. "
The deg!
Jingu's steps suddenly stopped. Surprised when he saw A Fei walking from the other side towards him. The body suddenly froze.
' A Fei's...'
Jingu's heart ached when he saw A Fei's hateful gaze. Nothing hurts more than being hated by someone we love.
" Pu-daughter. Why are you.. "
" Why am I still conscious and not sleeping as you thought. Is it true what I said? " Sela A Fei seemed to guess what Jingu was thinking.
Jingu did not answer. What A Fei said was true. He indeed thought the woman in front of him had fallen asleep as usual.
" why? " A Fei's voice sounded trembling. His eyes also changed unlike at the beginning.
Again, A Fei said. " Why do you have Jingu? Not only did you deceive me, you also killed my brother? is all your kindness all along also fake? " Check A Fei.
Jingu shook his head, his eyes were red and dewy when he saw A Fei's wounded face. " Sorry.. I won't defend myself but really what I did to you was all real. I'm really sincere. "
" sincere... " A Fei sneered. " If you're sincere you won't hurt me. You know what you've done really hurts not only my feelings but my metal. You're making me bear the guilt that I'll never be able to get rid of. "
A Fei chuckled but the laughter was filled with pain. " If I had known earlier and had been more vigilant, it might never have happened. Brother A Guang will never die either. "
" Sorry.. " Brains Jingu. That was all Jingu could say. Because he is well aware of his mistakes that may never be forgiven.
" Would it be with your apology, Brother A Guang can come back alive. "
Jingu.
" Of course not. " A Fei could no longer hold back her tears. The salty clear liquid finally came out as well.
Seeing the woman he loved crying, the courage from which Jingu came forward meant to wipe away A Fei's tears.
A Fei was flinching. It seemed to receive Jingu's attention.
" I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. If I knew there would be a day when I would love you so deeply. I'd rather betray my country than hurt you. "
Jingu's words managed to make A Fei flinch. " A-what do you mean? "
Jingu immediately hugged A Fei. That action managed to make A Fei's body stiffen. There was no way for him to back down. Jingu had already decided he would confess his feelings this time as well.
" I love you, A Fei. I really love you. " Reveal Jingu. A Fei was still flinching.
If Jingu had said it when all had not been revealed, perhaps A Fei would have blushed and touched.
Jingu broke his embrace. Give a few inches of distance. Jingu thought he would see the woman's shocked expression or dazed look. But in fact, it was precisely the eyes of killing that he found.
Jem!
A Fei stabbed right in Jingu's heart. The blood coming out made Jingu feel pain. However the pain was no more painful when he saw A Fei's flat expression when stabbing him.
' Does that mean I'm not in your eyes, A Fei. '
