Chapter 220 Telling the Confessions
Lan Xi was walking alone in the palace, her eyes revealing endless loneliness and sadness. At this moment, Yue Jinlan had just finished dealing with busy government affairs and was about to go find Xiao Chuhan and Ye Chen to discuss some important matters. By coincidence of fate, Yue Jinlan happened to meet Lan Xi, who was in a trance and lost.
Yue Jinlan walked quickly to Lan Xi and asked with concern: "You'er, what's wrong with you? What happened that made you so sad?" Yue Jinlan's voice was full of worry and tenderness.
Lan Xi slowly raised her head and looked at Yue Jinlan, tears welling up in her eyes. Seeing this, Yue Jinlan became even more anxious and quickly comforted her: "You'er, don't scare me! Tell me quickly, who bullied you? Was it Xiao Chuhan or Ye Chen?"
Lan Xi came back to her senses, looked at her own loss of composure, and tried to adjust her inner emotions. Lan Xi shook her head slightly, and replied with a slightly trembling voice: "Jin Lan, I'm fine... I'm just a little depressed."
Yue Jinlan obviously didn't believe Lan Xi's words. Yue Jinlan frowned tightly and continued to ask: "Tell me, who made you sad? I will definitely vent your anger for you! Whether it's Xiao Chuhan or Ye Chen, as long as you tell me, I will never let them go!"
Lan Xi shook her head again, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes. Lan Xi held Yue Jinlan's hand and asked softly, "Jinlan, can you chat with me?"
Yue Jinlan felt Lan Xi's helplessness and nodded distressedly. Yue Jinlan decided to put aside the affairs in her hands temporarily and accompany Lan Xi. So, the two walked towards Jinlan's bedroom - Fengyi Palace.
After entering Fengyi Palace, Yue Jinlan ordered the servants to prepare some snacks and personally brought them to Lanxi. Yue Jinlan said gently: "I don't know what you like to eat, so I asked the imperial kitchen to prepare some of various flavors. Try it and see if it suits your taste."
Lan Xi's mood gradually calmed down. She looked at Yue Jinlan with gratitude and nodded slightly. When Lan Xi saw the table full of exquisite pastries, she was not interested at all. Lan Xi sighed softly and whispered, "I don't have much appetite now..."
Yue Jinlan keenly noticed Lan Xi's changes, and asked with concern: "Since you don't want to eat, wait until you have an appetite. Tell me, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell or are you troubled by something?" Yue Jinlan's eyes were always on Lan Xi, trying to find the answer from her expression.
"Jin Lan, I really don't know how to start this with you. Jin Lan, do you believe that there are two people who are exactly the same but have no connection at all?"
Lan was confused and couldn't understand what Lan Xi wanted to express. Lan Xi's face showed deep disappointment. Lan Xi knew that she must not tell Jin Lan about what she had experienced, but she had no place to vent her inner grievances and doubts.
"You'er, what happened to you today?" Jin Lan asked with concern.
"It's nothing, I'm just feeling a little low..." Lan Xi replied softly.
"I don't know why you're in such a bad mood. I just hope you can be happy and worry-free every day. Normally, even if you were seriously injured and needed to change the dressings, you never cried or complained. But today, you cried so heartbrokenly that I felt particularly distressed."
Lan Xi took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. "I feel much better now, Jin Lan, can I ask you a question?"
"Of course, just ask, Yu'er."
"As the monarch of Xiyue Country, have you never thought about marriage? Finding someone who truly loves you, staying by your side, and spending your life together..." This topic was an unprecedented unfamiliar territory for Yue Jinlan. Yue Jinlan subconsciously shook his head at Lan Xi, indicating that he had never thought about this issue.
