Chapter 156: Renewed Love (Part 5)
Zhou Cheng didn't know whether Han Ji really didn't know or was pretending not to know, but it didn't matter whether she knew or not. What mattered was her choice. He wasn't sure if Han Ji was really as strong as she seemed, especially now after Zhou Yan's death. After thinking for a while, he chose to speak and said: "I went to see her yesterday. She wanted to see you. Although I don't know if it's possible now, if you take the initiative to see her, I think she will be very happy."
After staring at Zhou Cheng for a while, Han Ji sneered. She didn't understand why everyone was still only thinking about Yin Yin at this time. Zhou Cheng couldn't be unaware of Yin Yin's true feelings. He must be the same as Zhou Yan, right? Han Ji suddenly laughed out loud and thought: They are indeed brothers.
"So, Your Majesty, do you want me to go see her? Or do you want me to comfort her?" Han Ji asked.
Zhou Cheng was slightly startled. No matter how he thought about it, the person who needed comfort should be Han Ji, not Yin Yin. He had to say that he was too selfish. He selfishly only thought about Yin Yin and ignored Han Ji's feelings. It was not justifiable for Han Ji to comfort a rival who made her suffer and indirectly killed the person she loved. However, thinking of Yin Yin's situation, Zhou Cheng decided to be selfish for once. He didn't know whether Han Ji was the only thorn in Yin Yin's heart at the moment, but he knew that Han Ji must be a knot in Yin Yin's heart. If this knot could not be untied one day, then Yin Yin would never be able to get rid of it and could only live in sin and guilt for a long time.
"Go see her. She is in very weak health right now. I'm afraid she won't be able to come and see you even if she wants to." Zhou Cheng said after some consideration.
"Just going to see her?" Han Ji asked in a rare sarcastic tone. She looked straight at Zhou Cheng, as if she saw through his lies?
Being looked at like this by Han Ji, Zhou Cheng felt guilty. He admitted that he asked Han Ji to see Yin Yin because he hoped to use this opportunity to resolve their misunderstandings. He himself didn't know why he chose this time, but he only knew that it had to be done as soon as possible, for he was afraid that the longer it was delayed, the more painful Yin Yin would become.
Han Ji looked at Zhou Cheng. For some reason, the person whom she once thought was high and mighty, out of reach, even noble and unattainable, was now no . She did not find this discovery strange. No matter who it was, once they had given their feelings, they would become no different from ordinary people. This was true for Zhou Yan, and so was Zhou Cheng, including herself.
"Can you tell me why you pushed her away when you could have easily gotten her, and why you pursued her desperately when you couldn't get her? Is it because she no longer loves you? Or is it because her eyes no longer stay on you alone?"
Zhou Cheng was stunned by Han Ji's sudden question. He didn't quite understand why Han Ji mentioned these at this time. Even if he knew, he couldn't answer her questions.
When Zhou Cheng did not give an answer, Han Ji's voice continued: "You learned to cherish after you lost it? Do you know that when her heart that once belonged to you leaves you, it is destined to no longer belong to you. Even if you get her body, it is just a shell. Of course, your situation is just one of them. Just like him, I know that he has always loved that person wholeheartedly, but it's a pity that that person's heart never stayed for her. This is the so-called fate. What is yours will always be yours. What is not yours will never be yours even if you force it."
As she spoke, Han Ji turned her gaze to Zhou Yan's spirit tablet. When she looked at the tablet, a hint of sadness appeared in her eyes.
"I don't know what you were thinking at the beginning, but if you hadn't abandoned her, I believe there wouldn't be such a result now, and perhaps nothing would have happened. At first glance, you and he are completely different, because you could have had it, but you didn't want it, and he, no matter how hard he tried, couldn't get even a single sympathy. But, really, what's the difference between you and him? You used the same idea but different methods, trying to keep something that doesn't belong to you by your side. In the end, he died, but you are still alive and may face a painful result of certain death. What's the difference between you two? Equally pitiful, equally sad, what a pair of stupid brothers!!"
Zhou Cheng did not deny Han Ji's narration at all. He had never paid attention to it and had never discovered it. He did not expect that he would find out now that Han Ji really knew everything. Is this what is called a bystander sees clearly? However, Han Ji's feelings for Zhou Yan were so real and not false. From this point of view, Han Ji was also involved in the game, but she chose a path that no one else would choose. She has kept silent until now, silently enduring Zhou Yan's indifference and indifference for a long time, but still watching his kindness and pursuit of others. Zhou Cheng could not imagine how Han Ji got through those days, but he believed that it must have been accompanied by a considerable degree of pain. How painful it was was probably only known to Han Ji herself. That was himself. The pain and torture when he discovered his feelings for Yin Yin still made him remember it vividly.
"I promised you to go see her. In fact, even if you didn't say it, I planned to see her one more time before I go back." Han Ji's tone returned to normal when she spoke again. She was not lying, nor was she trying to comfort her. The main reason was that the last time she met Yin Yin was in the valley. At that time, she clearly felt that Yin Yin was different, but she didn't know the reason. She thought it necessary to go and see her, even as a farewell.
Perhaps because of the sudden change, Zhou Cheng was a little uncomfortable with it. He wanted to say something but couldn't.
Seeing that Zhou Cheng seemed to be hesitant to speak , Han Ji didn't say anything, because she knew what he wanted to say and she couldn't give any guarantees, so she had to remain silent.
