Both worlds are like dreams

Mo Ruilin sighed and looked at Wei Yunzhou, "Brother Wei, I finally understand how you felt back then." He was referring to the frustration of Wei Yunzhou who wanted Xue Huang to stay away from the danger he was in, but Xue Huang insisted on staying in and refused to leave no matter what.

Now facing Mo Xingyue, he felt the same way. She was his sister from the same mother, and he certainly couldn't bear to let her get involved in his own danger.

Wei Yunzhou said calmly, "You can make the same choice as me."

“But Xingyue is not the Snow Phoenix. She doesn’t have the ability to protect herself.” Mo Ruilin sighed.

Gu Qinglan said, "Your Highness, I know you can't bear to see her in danger, but rather than letting her live in ignorance under your protection, it is better to let her go with you. The road we are walking is indeed dangerous. Maybe one day even we ourselves will not be able to walk on. Who will be able to protect her then?"

Mo Ruilin's eyes deepened. Yes, from the moment they were involved in the court dispute, they were like walking on a cliff. One day, they might fall into the abyss. Who would be able to protect Xingyue at that time?

He, like Wei Yunzhou in the past, wanted to be the big tree that could shield them from the wind and rain, and let the person they cared about be the blooming flower. But how could flowers withstand the baptism of wind and rain?

He sighed deeply, "You have a point."

Gu Qinglan smiled slightly. He understood that Mo Ruilin had already compromised. He was not the kind of person who was stubborn and would think about things in a rut. In fact, if he was given a little more time, he would be able to think things through. It was just that Mo Xingyue was too important to him, so he was in a hurry. "Your Highness, go and coax Princess Xingyue."

Mo Ruilin smiled bitterly, "I don't want to save face? I'll go later!"

Gu Qinglan shook his head helplessly.

Wei Yunzhou said, "There is one thing that is very suitable for her to do."

Mo Ruilin raised his eyebrows, "What do you mean, Brother Wei?"

……

On Xue Huang's side, Mo Xingyue was found by the lake in the backyard.

Watching her from afar as she angrily kicked stones into the water, Xue Huang couldn't help but smile. Why did she act so much like a child?

"Are you so depressed that you want to jump into the lake?" Xue Huang raised an eyebrow. "The water is shallow, it won't drown anyone."

Mo Xingyue glared at her, "How can you comfort someone like that?"

"We in Guigu Sect always follow the principle of fighting when we disagree. Whoever wins has the final say. Why don't you go and fight with Brother Five? If you win, he'll listen to you."

"How can I beat him?" Mo Xingyue pouted and said angrily.

Xue Huang smiled and said, "It's easy! I can help you fight."

"Really?"

Xue Huang nodded, and began to get ready, eager to give it a try.

Mo Xingyue's eyes, which had originally lit up, suddenly turned into surprise. She couldn't help but think of her third brother who had purple eyes and was holding his waist for several days. She hurriedly stopped Xue Huang, "What are you doing?"

"I'll help you fight!" Xue Huang pinched her fingers, and the bones at the joints made a "crackling" sound. "I promise that this fight will definitely convince Fifth Brother."

Mo Xingyue listened to the sound coming from her hands and swallowed nervously. The last time Xue Huang "cracked" a walnut in front of her appeared in front of her eyes. But now she wondered if she was given a head, would she be able to crack it so easily? She forgot that this girl was not careful when fighting!

She quickly pulled Xue Huang back, but didn't notice the sly smile in Xue Huang's eyes, "Hey, hey, hey, actually I think what my brother said makes sense. I still plan to have a good talk with him first, and convince him with reason."

"It's so troublesome to talk about the truth!" Xue Huang said meaningfully. "One round, I promise that Fifth Brother will beg for mercy!"

"Really, there's no need." Mo Xingyue held her tightly, "I know my brother is doing this for my own good. I also know that he has been protecting me. If it weren't for him, I might have been married off to another country by our father. I have indeed caused him a lot of trouble. It's normal for him to be mean to me."

"Are you telling the truth?"

"Of course! I'm just mad at my brother for carrying everything by himself, and I want to share his burden!"

"Are you still angry now?" Xue Huang asked with a smile.

Mo Xingyue shook her head.

"Really?"

"real."

Xue Huang shook her hands and looked behind Mo Xingyue, "Did you hear everything?"

Mo Xingyue was stunned, and turned around to see Mo Ruilin walking over. She looked a little embarrassed, but still glared at him fiercely, "Who told you to eavesdrop on our conversation?"

"Not angry anymore?" Mo Ruilin asked.

Mo Xingyue turned around awkwardly, "Who said that? I'm very angry!"

Mo Ruilin walked over with a smile, "I just heard you say it with my own ears. I also heard you say that what I said makes sense. You have to convince me with reason."

Doesn't that mean he heard everything? Mo Xingyue glanced at Xue Huang, and her eyes meant: Did you do that on purpose?

Xue Huang expressed her injustice, "You were the one who insisted on stopping me. How could I possibly use harsh measures against my fifth brother?"

Mo Xingyue rolled her eyes at her, "You are so stupid, who knows if you can do it?"

Xue Huang was speechless, "You are really good at being a venomous tongue!"

"Okay," Mo Ruilin said with a smile, "Don't you want to convince me with reason? Then I'll give you a chance."

"Really?" Mo Xingyue opened her eyes wide.

"I'll give you three sentences." said Mo Ruilin.

"How can you explain it clearly?"

Mo Ruilin stretched out a finger and said calmly: "One sentence."

"That doesn't count!" Mo Xingyue said anxiously.

Mo Ruilin didn't care and raised another finger, "Two sentences!"

Mo Xingyue got so nervous that she bit her tongue. She screamed in pain and quickly covered her mouth.

"Three sentences!"

Mo Xingyue wanted to say that he was cheating, but she covered her mouth and held back the words she was about to say! She used her eyes to indicate that what she just said didn't count!

Mo Ruilin knocked her head helplessly, "Okay, I'm just kidding. I've heard the reason, you win."

Mo Xingyue was puzzled: What does it mean?

"Oh my!" Xue Huang looked anxious, "Fifth Brother agreed."

"Really?!" Mo Xingyue smiled and hugged Mo Ruilin happily, "Brother, you are the best."

"You are such a sweet talker!" said Mo Ruilin helplessly.

Mo Xingyue looked at him with a smile, "Tell me quickly, what do you want me to do for you?"

"Go back to the palace."
