Chapter 343 You also have him in your heart
Seeing the two of them look different, Huo Jing said anxiously, "Princess Pingning, are you... okay?"
"And Miss Shen, are you okay?"
Luo Xiyao was about to say something, but fell silent upon hearing this.
The faint smile on Shen Qionghua's lips also disappeared.
Comforting people is truly a wonderful thing.
Obviously, he meant well to offer comfort, but the moment the words came out of his mouth, it was as if he had reopened a wound that was about to heal, revealing the broken inside.
Compared with Luo Xiyao, Huo Jing's mind is naturally more inclined towards Shen Qionghua, and he pays more attention to Shen Qionghua.
At this moment, she felt a sense of depression lingering around Shen Qionghua, and the smile on her face disappeared. She said helplessly, "Shen...Miss Shen, what's wrong with you?"
"If you're sad, just cry it out. Don't hold it in. It's bad for your health."
Shen Qionghua took several deep breaths, and after a long while, she looked at Huo Jing and said, "Master Huo, do you have anything else to say to me?"
Huo Jing's whole body stiffened, and after hesitating for a moment, he nodded slightly.
Shen Qionghua was not one to waste time, so she immediately said, "Okay, let's find a place to talk. It's not convenient on the street."
"Okay." Huo Jing said hesitantly.
Seeing that Huo Jing agreed, Shen Qionghua took the lead and walked towards the restaurant nearby.
Luo Xiyao pursed her lips, her cheeks puffed up, "You're so annoying!"
Why do you have to mention other people’s sad things? Isn’t it better to be happy?
But Luo Xiyao couldn't say anything to blame him, she knew in her heart that Huo Jing meant well.
I can't blame him, but I feel unhappy.
Luo Xiyao simply stomped her feet and chased after Shen Qionghua.
Huo Jing followed them only after they were far away.
Shen Qionghua arrived at the restaurant first, booked a private room, and waited for Huo Jing with Luo Xiyao.
After a while, Huo Jing pushed the door open and came in.
Seeing him come in, Luo Xiyao stood up suddenly and said, "You guys talk, I'll go outside to watch, so that you won't feel uncomfortable talking."
Having said that, he glared at Huo Jing unhappily before walking out angrily.
The door is closed.
Huo Jing glanced at Shen Qionghua, who was standing by the window and looking down at the scenery below, and hesitated.
Shen Qionghua seemed to have noticed his emotions, so she retracted her gaze, turned around and said, "Master Huo, don't you have something to say to me? Go ahead."
The air was quiet for a while before Huo Jing finally spoke. He said in a hoarse voice, "Miss Shen, are you...are you still sad?"
"I am a little sad. What do you want?" Shen Qionghua said lightly, but there was a trace of reluctance and helplessness in her eyes.
Huo Jing didn't expect Shen Qionghua to ask him back, and hurriedly said: "You, don't be sad, Prince Rui is a lucky man, and he will return safely, that is..."
Huo Jing paused, then continued, "Even if King Rui dies fighting for his country, you still have me. I will always be by your side... until you recover from your pain..."
After he finished speaking, he saw Shen Qionghua staring at him straight, and he panicked. He couldn't help but ask again: "Miss Shen, we have known each other for so long, do you really not have any feelings for me at all?"
Shen Qionghua's heart darkened. She didn't answer Huo Jing's question, but instead talked about something else. "Mr. Huo, do you know? I fainted the moment I heard the news that Prince Rui was seriously injured and missing."
"Ah, are you okay? Are you feeling better now? You..." Huo Jing couldn't utter the rest of the caring words, and his whole body seemed to be frozen.
After a long while, he finally gave a bitter smile and said, "I understand what you mean. I was delusional. I always thought that as long as you weren't engaged, I would always have a chance."
"No, it's not you, it's my problem." Shen Qionghua lowered her head, staring at the tips of her shoes, and said softly, "I've been avoiding my own emotions."
"I thought I didn't care, that it didn't matter to me, but my body's reaction hit me hard."
"The heart-wrenching pain made it impossible for me to deceive myself anymore."
"I'm sorry, he targeted you every time we met."
Shen Qionghua didn't know why she wanted to say this to Huo Jing today.
She didn't want to make things so awkward.
She originally wanted to look respectable.
Thinking that Huo Jing wouldn't get a response from her after waiting for a long time, he naturally gave up.
After all, if we put it into context today, it is indeed embarrassing and awkward for both parties.
But, I don’t know why.
Just now when Huo Jing asked her about her concerns on the street, she suddenly thought of Xie Nanyuan.
I don’t know if he is still alive, I don’t know if he can return safely, and if he is really dead, I don’t know if the Duke of Zhenguo can find his body and bring him back.
A feeling of depression suddenly surged in my heart for no reason, and then turned into impulse.
At that moment, she really wanted to make things clear with Huo Jing.
Even though she knew that doing so might hurt Huo Jing to some extent.
But she couldn't care less.
I don’t want to care either.
The moment she said it, she felt very relieved.
She said these words but that didn't mean that she would definitely be with Xie Nanyuan if he returned safely.
Her previous concerns still exist and will not disappear with this crisis.
Those concerns were destined to make her emotionally restrained.
She just wanted to sort out her emotions.
It seemed that this would make her feel better.
At this moment, Shen Qionghua felt that she was being extremely pretentious.
When did she become like this?
So...not sober, not calm, and emotional?
Huo Jing could only smile bitterly at Shen Qionghua's apology.
If possible, he really didn't want to hear Shen Qionghua say such words from her mouth.
From the moment Shen Qionghua apologized, she had already sided with Prince Rui in her heart.
It was ridiculous that he was still thinking about what would happen if he was with Shen Qionghua in this situation, comforting her and encouraging her.
Maybe Shen Qionghua would just look at him more and accept him.
He was delusional after all...
Huo Jing said with difficulty: "Miss Shen, you really don't have to be sorry. In fact, I saw it early on. The relationship between you and Prince Rui is not one-sided."
"You have him in your heart too."
