As soon as Shen Moyu heard this, she knew that Xiao Linchuan must have misunderstood her, but she didn't know how to explain it. Anyway, even if she explained it clearly now, they couldn't be together right away.

Instead of having a painful conversation between the two of them, it would be better to just leave it as it is now. If Xiao Linchuan wants to misunderstand, let him misunderstand.

"Xiao Linchuan, if you want to think so, then I can't help it. I can only say I'm sorry."

Shen Moyou's words were actually very heartless, but so what? All she could think of now was hatred.

"okay, I get it."

Xiao Linchuan smiled at her somewhat sadly. He had done so many things, but in the end, he still couldn't get a single good word from Shen Moyu. Sometimes he really wanted to dig open Shen Moyu's heart and see what this heart was made of. It was so hard-hearted.

When Ji Chun came in with a basin of water, she bumped into Xiao Linchuan who was leaving in disappointment. "This servant greets His Royal Highness the Regent."

Shen Moyu was also sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking about.

"Miss, His Royal Highness the Regent is devoted to you, why do you treat him so coldly?"

Ji Chun spoke up for Xiao Linchuan, or perhaps she felt that Xiao Linchuan and her young lady both had their own difficulties, but neither of them had said it clearly.

It really proves the saying that those who are involved are often confused, while those who are not involved can see things clearly. It is obvious that they both love each other, but now they are pushing each other further and further away. Why is this happening?

"Ji Chun, do you think I'm stupid and mean? I clearly know what he's thinking, but every time I bring it up, I refuse without hesitation. Ji Chun, it's so uncomfortable here!"

Shen Moyu raised her head and looked at Ji Chun with tears in her eyes. She covered her chest with her hands, her voice choked with sobs that were heartbreaking.

"Miss, please don't think like that. This is not your fault. You shouldn't have to bear it."

Ji Chun was a little frightened when she saw Shen Moyu like this. In her impression, the young lady was always so optimistic and never doubted herself because of anything. But now, when Shen Moyu looked at Ji Chun, there was deep doubt and uncertainty in her eyes.

"But Ji Chun, I'm afraid. I'm afraid Xiao Linchuan will do something extreme. I don't want to reject him, but now both he and I know it's not the right time. Ji Chun, tell me, what should I do?"

Shen Moyou burst into tears. She was very logical when she was trying to persuade Xiao Xuan, but when it came to her turn, she was hesitant. She knew exactly what Xiao Linchuan needed, but she was determined not to agree.

Ji Chun bit her lip and shook her head in embarrassment. She didn't know what to do. However, seeing her young lady so sad, she felt so distressed.

"Miss, why don't you confess to His Royal Highness the Regent? I believe that His Royal Highness the Regent will understand you."

Ji Chun's suggestion was not unreasonable, but he felt that doing so would be unfair to Xiao Linchuan. Shen Moyu knew it was unfair, so he would rather suffer like this than tell the truth.

"No, it can't be."

As soon as Ji Chun finished speaking, Shen Moyou refused without hesitation, "Ji Chun, you know, what I want to do is too big, I don't even know if I can survive it, how can I..."

"Miss, you can't say such discouraging words!"

Ji Chun hurriedly stepped forward and covered Shen Moyu's mouth, tears falling from the corners of her eyes, "I will never let anything happen to you, Miss, please believe me."

"Ji Chun, this is not a question of trust or not. Of course I believe in you, but you also saw who I am dealing with. Xiao Linchuan can certainly help me, but he also has his own responsibilities, doesn't he?"

Shen Moyu shook her head with a sad face. She couldn't be so selfish. Xiao Linchuan had done so much for her over the past few days, so she was content.

"But Miss, these things are obviously what His Royal Highness the Regent is willing to do."

Ji Chun didn't understand. Could it be that what His Royal Highness the Regent was willing to do was wrong?

"I know he is willing to do this because he has feelings for me, but I can't repay his love, Ji Chun, can you understand? I have no way to respond. If that's the case, then no matter how much he does, it will be useless, don't you understand?"

Shen Moyu explained to Ji Chun patiently, but looking at Ji Chun's confused look, she knew that Ji Chun would never understand.

But that's true, there is no such thing as empathy in the world, and it is not something Ji Chun should understand, so how could she have the same feeling.

"Miss, I don't understand. I only know that His Royal Highness the Regent is a very good person. I don't want you to miss him."

Ji Chun's words actually touched Shen Moyu as well. She knew that Xiao Linchuan was a very good person, but no matter how good he was, she had to wait until she had taken revenge.

"Ji Chun, stop talking. Are you going to force me like Xiao Linchuan?"

Shen Moyu didn't want to discuss this topic with Ji Chun anymore. She was afraid that she would feel so guilty that she couldn't bear it anymore and would collapse because of it.

Ji Chun also realized that he could not force his young lady any longer, so he chose to shut up and wipe Shen Moyu's body silently.

"Go call Bai Zhi over later. I have something for her to do."

Shen Moyu let Ji Chun serve her with a tired face. Thinking of Xiao Linchuan's sad expression when he left just now, there was a pain in her heart that made her almost suffocate.

"Miss, Bai Zhi is still guarding outside the Seventh Prince's bedroom. I'm afraid she won't come back tonight. His Royal Highness the Regent has ordered that I cannot leave your position, otherwise..."

Ji Chun originally didn't want to mention Xiao Linchuan, but she had no choice, and she couldn't really ignore Xiao Linchuan's words.

Shen Moyou also knew that Xiao Linchuan had warned everyone around her and was very concerned, so she just nodded and did not resist.

"I understand. You go down first. I want to be alone and quiet."

"Yes, ma'am."

Ji Chun left the room silently. As expected, Xiao Linchuan was waiting for her in the yard. Ji Chun sighed softly, knowing that she could not escape. She resigned herself to her fate and walked to Xiao Linchuan's side. "His Royal Highness the Regent hasn't left yet?"

"Ji Chun, can you tell me what exactly is your Xiao Jie hiding?"

Xiao Linchuan was extremely anxious. He wanted to know why Shen Moyu had changed so much. He also wanted to know why Shen Moyu kept him at a distance even though he could clearly feel that she was not heartless or ungrateful to him.

This puts Xiao Linchuan on the brink of anxiety every day. Now he can only pin his hopes on the people around Shen Moyu, hoping they can understand something.
