Love Above All Chapter 178
"I heard you’re engaged again, so I just came to congratulate you." Lan Xi didn’t expect to be able to say such a thing so calmly.
"Your Highness Lan Xi, you’re too kind." Quan Shaoqing lowered his head, his expression unreadable.
Lan Xi stared at him, unable to speak for a long time.
Just when Quan Shaoqing thought she had disappeared, he looked up to see the woman sitting like a statue in front of him.
Her long hair cascaded over her shoulders, her lips red and teeth white, stunningly beautiful, but at that moment, she looked utterly dejected.
"Ah Qing!" Lan Xi suddenly lifted her head, revealing a gentle smile. "You told me to wait for you, for you to come and marry me. I’ve waited for you for twenty thousand years, and we’ve finally met again. Yet time and again, you break my heart."
Lan Xi seemed to be smiling, but it was a forced smile. "I can ignore all this. But how can you say that in this life, you can marry anyone but me? What’s so unworthy about me?"
Quan Shaoqing’s back stiffened silently. After a long while, he spoke in a low voice, "It’s not that you’re unworthy of me, but that I’m unworthy of you."
"... Hah!" Lan Xi couldn’t help but sneer out loud.
"It’s nothing but an excuse! In our past life, you were just an ordinary mortal with no family... yet you dared to like me and promised to marry me. Now that you have status and power, you claim you’re unworthy." Lan Xi suddenly stood up and approached Quan Shaoqing.
She directly pulled out his Heavenly Sword and placed it in his hand.
