Chapter 75: A Brief Encounter (6)
After saying what he wanted to say, Zhao Ziheng distanced himself from Yin Yin, turned his back to Yin Yin, so as to prevent Yin Yin from seeing his expression.
"I heard you're leaving here?"
Zhao Ziheng's words gradually brought Yin Yin back to her senses. She looked at Zhao Ziheng in confusion. From Zhao Ziheng's back, it seemed as if the words just now had never been said, or maybe it was completely unimportant to Zhao Ziheng?
"……Um."
Yin Yin nodded slightly in response.
"Yeah?"
If possible, Zhao Ziheng didn't want to let Yinyin go just like that, but there were still many things waiting for him, including Yinyin's matter. He didn't want to restrict Yinyin too much and put too much mental pressure on her, so he seemed to be nonchalant. When he turned to Yinyin again, his expression returned to his usual coldness...
"Is this okay? You probably don't like this, do you?"
"It doesn't matter to me where I go. It doesn't matter where I go or who I stay with until I find myself again."
Zhao Ziheng saw the tone and awareness in Yinyin's voice. Was that a determination that would not be shaken? As long as he relied on such determination, Zhao Ziheng believed that his bond with Yinyin would not be severed. This was also what he hoped for. At least Yinyin would not have to bear more mental pressure and pain by his side.
"Just like what you said before , if you want to know something, I can tell you, the same goes for Prince Jing, but should I say it's my illusion? From your expression now, instead of asking, it's better to say that you want to use your own abilities to find back the precious memories you lost, right?"
Yin Yin remained silent and did not answer Zhao Ziheng's question. She did not need to answer because Zhao Ziheng already had the answer. In this way, Zhao Ziheng felt that his thoughts and actions were not wrong. Moreover, if Yin Yin had not recovered her memories with her own ability, the bond between the two of them might not have been loosened based on how he explained it. Only if Yin Yin recovered her memories herself could the bond between them become deeper. Even if Yin Yin would encounter unimaginable pain in the process of recovering her memories, Zhao Ziheng believed that it would at least be better than forcing Yin Yin to stay with him. In order to ensure that the two of them could be together happily after Yin Yin recovered her lost memories, Zhao Ziheng had decided to pave the way for everything before that. He would never be like he was on the island, where he lacked consideration and forced the two to separate, leaving Yin Yin with indelible painful memories.
"...Well, maybe it's weird for me to say this, but I just feel that if I don't find it myself, the precious things will be gone from me. So no matter how painful it will be in the future, I will try my best to find it back, in order to be a real me, for all the beautiful things that once were. This is what I will do in the future."
Looking at Yin Yin's strong expression, Zhao Ziheng really didn't know whether to feel relieved or heartbroken. He always thought that the willful Yin Yin had gradually matured, and sometimes even made him feel unfamiliar with her. Compared to unfamiliarity, it should be said that it made Zhao Ziheng love her even more deeply.
"The same goes for your case. I will try my best to remember it."
“Ah, I look forward to that day.”
The look in Zhao Ziheng's eyes as he looked at Yin Yin gradually revealed a gentleness that made Yin Yin's heart ripple. When she was looked at by him like this, Yin Yin felt a burning sensation in her heart.
"Can I ask you one last question?"
"Um."
"Who is Li Jun?"
After hearing Yinyin's words, Zhao Ziheng was completely stunned. An unexpected name would appear at this time. Should I say that he was scared? Zhao Ziheng stared at Yinyin blankly.
From Zhao Ziheng's expression, Yinyin has got the answer. It seems that there are still many things that need to be understood. What kind of connection does this name learned from the abbot of Tai'an Temple have with Zhao Ziheng? And what kind of relationship does she have with Zhao Ziheng? These are the answers that Yinyin will find in the future. As for the position of Zhao Ziheng in her mind, Yinyin seems to realize something. Although Zhao Ziheng said nothing, Yinyin is sure of one thing, that is, the look in Zhao Ziheng's eyes who is standing in front of her at this moment is so gentle, even so gentle that her heart melts. How can she not be shaken by this feeling?
"I'm sorry, forget what I just said. I told you to rely on yourself, so you don't have to take it to heart, even if..."
In the middle of the conversation, Yin Yin paused, and then there was silence. Zhao Ziheng also felt strange, but Yin Yin's expression told him not to ask, so he didn't ask, because for him, as long as Yin Yin didn't speak, he would never do anything to embarrass Yin Yin.
"It's getting late. I'm sorry to have disturbed you for so long. I have to go back now."
"I send you."
"Yes, thank you."
Zhao Ziheng and Yinyin ended this brief reunion with the most ordinary words. The two did not refuse each other because they knew that after this farewell, they didn't know when they would meet again. Zhao Ziheng could be said to be knowledgeable and sensible. Yinyin did not refuse because she didn't want to refuse. Facing Zhao Ziheng, she couldn't refuse either. She could stay with him for a while until the end of this journey...
True ties cannot be severed by memories. Even if there are no related memories, the body and feelings will still produce attachment. This is how Yin Yin feels now!
