Chapter 303: Stupid
This also reminded the shopkeeper Fatty Di, who quickly ordered the servant behind him, "Hurry up, clean up the backyard."
"If there are any things left by Miss Xia, they should be enshrined and used as heirlooms in the future."
For a moment, the inn was busy from top to bottom.
On the other side, after the carriage drove out of the Northern Dynasty, Xia Yining stopped the convoy.
Looking at Shan Xingyan, he said, "I have been out for quite some time. I will return to Xiaotian Village first. General Shan, please have these things sent back to Xia Mansion in the capital."
At this time, they have returned to their original appearance, and Xi Zhiyi no longer suppresses his aura. The three women and two men standing there are very conspicuous.
This made Shan Xingyan feel out of place, and the resentment in his heart rose again.
He stared at the little girl in front of him with a heart full of bitterness. If he was just a step slower, would he have no chance at all?
She tightened her fingers again and again, and said nervously, "The things will be delivered to the capital safely, Ning'er, please rest assured."
"I just want to ask you something. I wonder if I can talk to you privately?"
Hearing her address, Xia Yining felt it was too intimate, but in the end he did not say anything to stop her and just nodded.
"Okay, Mr. Shan, please come this way."
The two of them then walked a hundred meters away, just like they were taking a stroll. Shan Xingyan walked very slowly, and he glanced at the people around him.
He was so close to her, yet it seemed as if there were thousands of mountains and rivers between them. He had a vague answer in his heart, so he decided to try one last time.
Xia Yining looked at him with neither sadness nor joy: "Do you have anything to say?"
"Yes." Shan Xingyan repeated it in his mind many times and took deep breaths many times.
Then he spoke again: "I have been in love with Sister Ning'er for many years. I wonder if you can give me another chance?"
Hearing this, she frowned slightly.
She didn't quite understand what he meant by "opportunity". Shouldn't he be asking her if she liked him too?
Xia Yining is a person who is very afraid of trouble and always cuts the Gordian knot when it comes to some things.
She looked at him and said directly, "I'm sorry, love between men and women is not important to me."
"Since ancient times, human hearts have changed rapidly, which is the most difficult thing in the world to understand."
"All the troubles between men and women are caused by love."
"Life is precious. Ning'er just wants to protect her family and live happily every day. She doesn't want to get into trouble."
"What's more..." She looked at him steadily.
"Ning'er has no romantic feelings for you, and I don't want to lie to you."
Even though he already had the answer in his heart, Shan Xingyan couldn't help but take a step back when he heard it with his own ears.
He felt like his heart was about to be torn apart. It turned out that being rejected by the one he loved was so hard to accept.
Considering that he and her hadn't seen each other for many years and there was little communication between them, it was normal for Ning'er to have no feelings for him.
He raised his eyes to look at the man in the distance, who was standing there in a silver robe. It was impossible to tell what expression was on his good brother's face.
He then withdrew his gaze and asked with a pale face, "Don't I have any chance at all?"
"Well, no."
"Does General Shan know Ning'er's wish?"
"I don't know. Please tell me clearly, Princess Protector of the Nation."
"Everyone has their own responsibilities. Ning'er's job is to protect the people of Nanxu and ensure they have enough food and clothing."
"As well as the soldiers guarding the border, we can help them suffer less from the war, so that one day when there is no more war in the world, they can go back and reunite with their families earlier."
"General Shan, what do you think is more important, this matter or the love between a man and a woman?"
This sentence made Shan Xingyan speechless. He lowered his eyes and thought of his brothers who died on the battlefield, replaying every battle scene in his mind.
At this moment, he felt that he was indeed not worthy of the woman in front of him.
Because she has her country, her people and a big picture in her heart.
Unlike many people, she is not trapped in the backyard looking up at the sky by some rules.
She doesn't live to be a good wife and mother as others say. She is a phoenix soaring in the sky, an existence that people look up to.
And he, who was born into a military family, was actually struggling over some love affairs between men and women, and was ridiculously unwilling to accept it.
After figuring this out, his originally pale face regained some redness, and after looking into the distance he laughed heartily.
"The Grand Princess Protector of the Nation is right. There are more important things in this world than just love between men and women."
"Thank you for speaking your mind today. I was blinded by the next leaf."
"I have had this sentence in my heart for many years. I finally said it today and it has fulfilled my wish."
"I also wish the Princess Protector of the Nation all the best. Can we still be friends when we meet again?"
"Of course, next time we meet, we'll sit down and have a drink and chat together."
The two of them stood there and smiled at each other, so discordant.
The two sisters, Dahe and Xiaohe, in the distance looked at each other, and then looked at Xi Zhiyi, who had been silent at the beginning.
Ask directly: "Why? Aren't you nervous at all?"
"One is a good brother for many years, a famous young general in Nanxu, and the other is a goddess respected by everyone."
"Look, they look so good together. What if..."
Xi Zhiyi:······
He glanced at Dahe who was gloating over someone else's misfortune and was speechless.
"No matter what happens, Ning'er will never be a drag, and she will never put herself in a difficult position."
"What's more, she is so outstanding that she attracts many people to her."
"There will be more people than just Xingyan in the future, so what?"
"I will always be by her side and will not interfere with her doing anything."
"As long as she is happy."
Xiao He clicked his tongue twice, looked at him like he was a fool, and said mercilessly: "Okay, okay, just keep this attitude."
"When Ning'er meets someone who is thick-skinned and sticks to her like a dog-skin plaster whenever he sees her, don't hide and cry then."
"Hey hey hey..."
"When that time comes, I will laugh at your joke together with my sister and Big Brother Chiyan, right?"
At this time, Chi Yan was lying comfortably on the roof of the carriage with his head propped up.
The posture was so leisurely as if he was lying on his own couch, very comfortable.
He raised one eye and looked at Xi Zhiyi, with a smile on his face that showed he was laughing at a joke, as if he was looking at a fool.
Well, he still looks stupid. He has gone down this path.
He replied nonchalantly, "Yes, Sister Xiaohe is right. This person is a bit dull and stupid."
The two sisters burst out laughing when they heard this, both looking like they were waiting to see a joke.
Xi Zhiyi:······
OK, OK, this feeling is so familiar, as if I had been laughed at like this by them a long time ago.
The dragon relied on the power of the man, so he did not bother with the dragon, lest the dragon go to complain.
He snorted coldly and turned around, looking at the two people slowly walking back, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
