Chapter 268: This Situation Seems Difficult To Solve
After stabilizing his posture, Chi Xiyou coughed to cover up his shock and said, "But if you don’t tell her, you won’t get any answer, right?"
Seeing that Xuan Ruiquan looked even more depressed, Chi Xiyou added, "I don’t know what happened between you two, but from my experience of observing my parents all these years, I can tell you that honesty, sincerity, and communication are important factors in cultivating a long-term relationship. Moreover, based on my understanding of Xin Xin’s character, she is not someone who makes trouble out of nothing. If you explain to her, she will understand."
Xuan Ruiquan listened to Chi Xiyou’s advice and fell into deep thought. Seeing his thoughtful look, Chi Xiyou patted Xuan Ruiquan on the shoulder and said, "Think carefully about what I said. I believe you will be able to find your answer."
After saying that, Chi Xiyou left to have dinner with Chi Xinru.
When Xuan Ruiquan was the only one left in the room, he closed his eyes and recalled the memories of his previous life. After living for another ten years in this new life, those memories have become blurred, but the pain is still as clear as yesterday.
When he first returned to the past, he was confused and spent several years building his power. After establishing the Jin Yi Army and consolidating his position in the imperial court, he rushed to Yunshan Village to find Duan Yixin but found that she had dedicated her life to Tang Zizheng.
At that time, he lost the will to fight against fate and left Yunshan Village. From that day on, he focuses all his attention and time on uncovering the truth behind the death of the previous emperor, the first empress, and his mother.
However, when he thought he could only try his best to save his elder cousin’s life, he found that his beloved Duan Yixin was back. After finally holding her in his arms, he couldn’t accept the fact that he might lose her again.
Xuan Ruiquan covered his eyes with his arm and tried to clear his mind. After an unknown amount of time, he finally opened his eyes, picked up his sword, and put on the silver mask. When Chi Xiyou came back, Xuan Ruiquan had disappeared.
