rich concubine

Chapter 1040 Are you going to make me a bachelor for the rest of my life?

Jiang Shunyi interrupted her with a low growl, and there was a hint of grievance in his words.

This time, Lu Ruyi became even more silent.

The two of them stood in silence for a while. Lu Ruyi saw the uncomfortable look on his face and knew that he was secretly competing with each other at the moment. She sighed softly, walked over, dragged a chair and sat down beside his bed. , for a moment, both of them were a little embarrassed.

"You have saved my life more than once. You are my real lifesaver. I can't thank you enough, so how can I resent you?"

"..."

"You have really wronged me. I have been asking about you every day. If you are good, I will feel relieved. If you are not good, I will be worried. I don't want to see you. It's just that now, you and I You should keep your distance.”

Jiang Shunyi's eyes were dull, his eyelids trembled slightly, and he said: "Keep a distance... what distance should you keep? Even if you don't say anything else, you and I are related. With such a relationship, what distance should you keep from me?" "

Lu Ruyi felt a little uncomfortable being asked. She closed her eyes, thinking that he had been bedridden these days. She was afraid that he was really unclear about some things, so she didn't blame him for reacting this way.

She then said: "It's for our own good that I keep my distance, so people outside won't say anything."

Jiang Shunyi was silent for a moment, then looked up at her: "What do you say?"

When he asked this, Lu Ruyi felt even worse. He had been in bed for a long time, and he didn't know what was going on outside, let alone how those people arranged them. Why would he bother to say it and make him worried?

She sighed to herself, turned away and said, "It's nothing. Taking good care of yourself is more important than anything else."

Jiang Shunyi reacted very quickly and said, "How can I feel at ease if you don't explain clearly?"

Lu Ruyi paused for a moment, exhaled, looked at Jiang Shunyi's curious eyes, softened her heart for a moment, and said: "Actually, it's not a big deal..."

After all, she couldn't bear it anymore and told him the rumors outside. The more she spoke, the softer her voice became. She was a little ashamed.

But originally, she shouldn't be ashamed.

On the other hand, Jiang Shunyi seemed to know this for the first time. He was extremely shocked and stared in disbelief. He was originally a little excited and even more excited. From Ruyi's expression at this moment, you can tell that he was secretly rubbing his eyes at this moment. I was so excited that I was afraid that something was wrong, so I thought about how I would react if this was really the first time I knew about this.

When Lu Ruyi raised her head, she saw him frowning, with an unhappy look on his face. She was heartbroken and hurriedly lowered her head. Suddenly, she felt faintly sad.

"this matter……"

"this matter……"

The two of them spoke at the same time, and when there was an emphasis on what they heard, they stopped again and looked at each other, as if waiting for the other person to speak first. Jiang Shunxiao took a step ahead of her, looked into her eyes, and said, "You speak first."

Lu Ruyi couldn't hold it for a moment and said, "You better say it first."

Jiang Shunyi looked at her for a while and then said: "I originally wanted to ask your opinion on this matter." I respect your opinion.

Coincidentally, what Lu Ruyi wanted to ask was the same thing. From his look, Lu Ruyi said: "These words are spread by people outside. Even if they are rumors, they should not be underestimated. Now there is a lot of commotion. You As a noble son of the capital, I will definitely be affected. I feel guilty, and I am afraid that it will affect you, so I want to distance myself from you. If outsiders see that you and I are not close, they will know that you and I are not close. It's just an ordinary family relationship, nothing more. Those messages will be self-defeating. After all, people's mouths can't control what they say. Only by letting them see it with their own eyes can they know that the truth is not what they say. Only then will they believe that the relationship between us is clean." After listening to her sincere words, Jiang Shunyi's temples jumped a little, and the hands hidden under the quilt were clenched. Just now, she was still thinking that she must respect Her opinion, now...fuck it, listen to her, the two of them will be done playing!

Realizing that he could not drag it out any longer, Jiang Shunyi took a deep breath and became solemn. He sneered, raised his eyebrows and looked at her, saying: "Clean? What do you mean? I don’t believe it even if you come out, how can people outside believe it?”

Lu Ruyi didn't react for a while. The meaning of what he said was understood in an instant when she saw the secretive look in his eyes. Her face suddenly turned red, but she was not shy, but a little embarrassed and embarrassed.

The memory suddenly returned to the time in Anyin Temple, which she would never forget.

She didn't expect that Jiang Shunyi would suddenly bring up the matter again.

She choked her throat, swallowed, and said: "For the sake of your reputation and mine, that matter has been suppressed. People who know about it have signed a death contract, and no one dares to tell it. No one will know.”

Jiang Shunyi seemed to be against her and said, "That's not necessarily true. There is no airtight wall in this world."

Lu Ruyi was silent, and there was a faint glimmer of water in her heart. Jiang Shunyi did not see it, so she continued: "Just let those rumors continue, so what? For you and me, no...for you, what will happen? What impact? Does it affect your marriage?"

Lu Ruyi's eyes flickered, she avoided his gaze, and said in a voice like a mosquito's moan: "I haven't even thought about getting married, so what impact will it have?"

Although she spoke in a low voice, Jiang Shunyi heard her, and his face turned dark immediately. He stared at her, as if he wanted to see a hole in her, and he said angrily: "You don't want to get married anymore. ? Doesn’t that mean I’ll be a bachelor for the rest of my life? You’re not afraid of the repercussions, but I am!”

Listening to what he said at this moment, Lu Ruyi looked stunned and looked at him blankly. She saw him breathing heavily and looking like he wanted to kill himself.

"..."

"Why didn't you speak?"

"I don't know what to say..."

"You have nothing to say to me now? What will you do in the future? In the next few decades, you and I will be speechless?"

He spoke urgently and quickly, causing Lu Ruyi to become even more silent after listening to it. Then she thought about it and finally held it in: "I just pretend I haven't heard what you said. I'll wait until you recover from your injury." Just go back to the capital, the eldest princess's aunt is very worried about you, don't let her worry too much about you."

"Ruyi, don't change the topic. You understand what I mean. Don't think that every time you look cold, I will step back and pretend that nothing has happened. Today, I want you to say a word, but you can't Run away again.”

Ruyi was startled for a moment, the water in her eyes had long been blinked away by her eyes. At this moment, her eyes were a little moist, adding a bit of innocence to her. She said: "I didn't escape, what I said Yes, it’s all from the heart.”
