Both worlds are like dreams

Xue Huang spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground. The wind chime in her hand shattered and cut her palm.

Rong Yu saw her appearance and was about to go to her side when he saw Mo Yunchen also hurried over here.

He silently clenched his fists and resisted the urge to show up.

Mo Yunchen came to Xue Huang anxiously, fed her the medicine and suppressed her injuries.

After a while, Xue Huang's complexion recovered a little.

Mo Yunchen helped her stand up, without asking anything, and just said, "Go back."

Xue Huang stood there without moving. Her eyes were a little cold, and she also saw Rong Yu in the attic.

She shook her head and comforted him implicitly, "I'm fine, don't worry."

Mo Yunchen looked at the broken wind chimes and the bloodstains on the ground, and hurriedly bandaged Xue Huang's wounds. Looking at her lost and sad eyes, he couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart and felt panicked.

What did she remember now?

Is it so hard to forget?

He concealed the discomfort in his heart and asked her tentatively, "Did you remember anything?"

“I can’t remember, but I feel so bad.”

"Don't think about it, go back first."

"When will you take me home? I miss my grandpa. I want to go back to Guigu."

Mo Yunchen held her hand and said, "I will definitely take you back after a while."

Xue Huang smiled and said, "Then hurry up, I can't wait any longer, I almost forgot what Guigu looks like."

"Okay." Mo Yunchen looked at her seriously, "I promise you, we'll set off when your injury gets better."

Xue Huang didn't say anything. She turned around silently and her eyes swept across the attic.

Rong Yu watched her walk away and realized that time was running out. Every time the love poison attacked, it would take away some of her remaining time.

He also understood that they could not deceive her for much longer. Sooner or later, she would remember it, and once she did, there was absolutely no way she would stay here.

Xue Huang fell asleep after she returned, and the rich aroma from the incense burner filled the entire room.

Mo Yunchen stayed beside her. This time, he would never give her the slightest chance to recall the past.

But the feeling of helplessness in his heart was so obvious, because no matter what he did, she couldn't forget it.

So what should he do?

He once didn't know what love was, nor did he know how to love someone.

When he first saw her, he felt that she was very special. He had never seen anyone so bright and flamboyant.

In a trance, he seemed to see his former self in her.

She was like a ray of light, appearing in his cold world of blood and darkness.

In that dream, she was the only one wearing clothes as white as snow, unstained by dust.

From that moment on, he wanted to possess her, to pull her into the hellish world behind him, to make her belong to him forever.

He had used her, hurt her, and even used all means to do so. He couldn't tell whether it was out of love or possessiveness. He thought that as long as she stayed by his side, it would be enough. He thought that he didn't care who she loved. He thought that as long as the time was long enough, she would be willing to stay by his side.

But when her sorrows and joys occupied his heart, when every little detail of her affected his happiness, anger, sorrow and joy, he was obsessed with the person she loved, why couldn't it be him?

He doesn't believe in fate, he only believes in himself. He thinks he can control everything, but everything is like a cycle of cause and effect.

She trusted him, but he didn't cherish it.

She hated him to the core, but he loved her like crazy.

He just wanted to keep the light, but found it impossible to catch it. What was even more desperate was that he had clearly held it in his hands, but buried it with his own hands.

As proud as he was, one day he became so humble that he regretted it deeply.

If he had not hurt her, if he had remembered earlier, if time could be turned back, if... if... what words that were so hopeful and yet so desperate.

There are never any ifs in this world.

Mo Yunchen walked out of the room, the sunlight shining on him was still so cold and biting.

Duan Yun came to him and spoke hesitantly, "Your Majesty, there is news from Shangyang City."

"explain."

"Dongchu... Dongchu and His Majesty have agreed to the princess and the prince's divorce. If the couple is not on good terms, they can divorce on their own, but the alliance between the two countries remains. Although His Majesty has not issued an order for the princess and the prince to divorce, as long as the princess asks, His Majesty will definitely agree."

"If they took her away from me, they would have to watch her die. I think anyone would make a smart choice."

"Wei Yunzhou and Xu Yao have already set out with the ghost doctor and the poison doctor. They will arrive at Shuanglin City soon. What are your plans, Your Majesty?"

"You can save her, but if you want to take her away, then don't leave her alone! Emperor Mo Ruilin will not be able to live in peace."

"What abnormalities can be found in today's incident?"

"There is nothing unusual. The princess bought the wind chimes by chance."

"This thing must not appear in the city again."

"Yes."

Xuehuang slept for a whole day and night before waking up. However, her head was still groggy, so she stayed in the quilt for a long time.

Mo Yunchen brought Huajuan and Nuomi Tuan to her, and the two kittens ran towards her happily.

This scene was as happy as a child seeing his mother.

Mo Yunchen felt like he was part of a family of four. He smiled and sat down, watching them play.

This kind of ordinary warmth had become the kind of day he most desired without him noticing.

Xuehuang was also happier than usual, "I slept for a long time, I'm hungry."

"Come and have dinner."

Xue Huang nodded, got out of bed, washed up, and came to the table.

Her favorite food had already been prepared on the table, and she picked up the bowl and started eating.

"Can I take the flower rolls and sticky rice balls with me when I go home?"

"Take it if you like."

"And bring more gifts. Grandpa and uncle love drinking the most."

"It's all up to you."

Xue Huang tilted her head and looked at him, "What's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?"

"No."

"Is my injury getting worse again? Do I not have much time left?"

"No nonsense!"

"You can't lie to me," Xue Huang smiled faintly, "Mo Yunchen, you can't lie to me either."

Mo Yunchen's hand paused. He looked into Xue Huang's innocent and lively eyes, feeling a little dazed for a moment.

"What are you daydreaming about?" Xue Huang waved her hand in front of him, "I won't talk nonsense anymore. I believe you can heal me."

Mo Yunchen held her hand and said, "Don't run around anymore. I'll accompany you wherever you want to go."

"I want to go to Jianghu, is that okay? I can ride a horse and wield a sword to travel the world. I also want to see the sea. I have never seen the sea." Xue Huang smiled, "In fact, Guigu is next to the sea, but the mountains there are too high. I can't walk over, so I have never seen it."

"Okay," Mo Yunchen said, "I'll take you wherever you want to go."

Xuehuang finished her meal with a smile, then took the cat out to play with her.

Mo Yunchen stayed with her for a while, then went to make medicine for her himself.

Before leaving, he looked at the Snow Phoenix on the swing, an indescribable feeling lingering in his heart.

Xue Huang did not go out again. Mo Yunchen did not allow her to go out, and she did not make a fuss.

Every day I just stay in the yard, sit on the swing, and play with the two cats.

She occasionally looked into the distance, as if waiting for something.

As time passed slowly, the smile on her face became less and less, and her eyes became clearer and clearer.

Her injuries became more and more serious. She drank bowl after bowl of medicine, but there was no improvement.

Mo Yunchen searched for precious herbs and tried various prescriptions, but none of them worked.

He couldn't figure out what went wrong. The nightmare fragrance had been confusing her memory, and she couldn't remember her true love, but why was her love poison still acting up?

This pain, which was worse than death, tortured her all the time and devoured her life bit by bit.

Xue Huang leaned on the swing, staring blankly into the distance.

She held the gem around her neck, wondering what she was thinking.

When Mo Yunchen came to see her, he was still holding the medicine.

Xue Huang glanced at it and asked, "Did you change the recipe again?"

"Not bitter."

"When will you take me home?"

"Wait until you recover."

"Will my injury heal?"

"Will do."

Xuehuang took the medicine and drank it. It seemed that osmanthus was added to the medicine, so it was not as bitter as before.

"It's cold, let's go back." Mo Yunchen carried her back to the house, put her on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and said, "Sleep for a while."

"I want to eat pear blossom cake."

"Okay, I'll give it to you when you wake up."

Xue Huang closed her eyes and slowly fell asleep.

Mo Yunchen waited until she fell asleep, then immediately ordered someone to find the pear blossom cake she had ordered.

There was no chance of getting pear blossom cake at this time of year, but as long as she wanted it, he would go find it no matter what.

Xue Huang opened her eyes after he left.

Her eyes were dull and lifeless, like dead ashes.
