Don’t be too poisonous to the concubine of the Wu family who was born in Wu

Chapter 3845 114. The best doctor heals the country (Hongmei and Meiluo have an unexpected heart-to-heart talk)

"Mei Luo... I just want to ask you one thing, what do you think of me?"

By the bank of the Quanshui Lake, Hongmei expressed her emotions freely, expressing her feelings for the falling plum blossoms over the years.

Naturally, after expressing your feelings, you want to get an immediate response from the other party.

"I...you are someone I care about very much."

Mei Luo is indeed the worst of scumbags. He is very particular about the way and manner of speaking. He doesn't give a clear answer to the other party's questions, but he won't let the other party down either.

"You are the one I care about... just care?"

Hearing this answer, a hint of disappointment emerged on Hongmei's face. After all, she wanted more in her heart. Rather than "care", she wanted to hear the word "like".

"Sister~ In this situation, it doesn't matter if you and I say anything more... You have to know... your and my identities, the eyes of the world, and... your and my current situation. Some words will only make you and me fall into the quagmire. Have you thought about it?"

Mei Luo saw the disappointment on Hong Mei's face, so as a worldly-wise man, he made some sophistry to rationalize the so-called false friendship.

The subtext of this statement is: It’s not that I don’t like you, but that I can’t like you. Given our current situation, a single word of “like” can leave both of us dead.

In other words, for Mei Luo, Hong Mei is just a passer-by who can be used. He does not like her enough to sacrifice everything for her.

Mei Luo said something bitter, without making the words clear, but the emotion was enough to make the other person feel pitiful and cute.

But Hongmei couldn't control her feelings. She had been madly in love with Meiluo for so many years. This man had planted the seeds in her heart a long time ago. She didn't dare to say what she couldn't say before, but today she finally got the chance to say it out loud.

"But I like you!"

Hongmei finally expressed her feelings. Although she knew that it was impossible for her and the other party to be together, she still wanted to express her feelings to the other party even if it was just a brief recognition.

In the end, Mei Luo failed to stop the conversation. After all, if some things were not made clear, everyone could still live in peace and play their own roles. But once they were made clear, some issues had to be put on the table for discussion.

It just so happened that Mei Luo was also in the situation of liking someone but not knowing how to express it. Seeing Hong Mei having the courage to express her feelings, Mei Luo was just curious at the moment, and he didn't know what was in his mind, and he just blurted out such a sentence.

"Sister Hongmei, is it important to like someone?"

"Very important!"

Hongmei said without hesitation, firmly in her heart.

"How important is it? Is it important enough to give up everything for it? Is it important enough to disregard your own life and property, and even ignore your parents, brothers, and blood ties?" Mei Luo seemed to be reminding Hong Mei to adjust her mindset, but in fact he was struggling with himself, because he knew very well that from the moment he chose to betray the Quan family, he knew very well what kind of situation he would face next.

If we were to ask what exactly changed his mind, it was not just because of the environment he grew up in, which made him feel that his life was dark and distorted, but most importantly, he saw a ray of light in his life.

If a person stays in darkness all the time, he will sink into it without realizing it. However, if he sees light and warmth, he will unconsciously want to get closer to it.

For this beam of light, he can really follow it at all costs, even if he is torn to pieces.

"Hehe~ Yes, human nature is to live... But when you really like someone, you want to protect him, you want to give him everything you have... You know how stupid it is to do so... But people don't want to go against their original intentions, so what if the physical body is destroyed? I'm afraid that people's hearts have become indifferent and there is no enthusiasm and hope anymore."

Hongmei smiled bitterly. This was her biggest feeling over the years. Even though she didn't know how many men she had slept with, the man who could match her yearning would always live in her heart and appear in her dreams.

“People always have to live in the secular world. In order to satisfy their own physical desires and to survive, they have to bow to the secular world. However, the place they yearn for in their hearts is so beautiful and sacred. Even if they know that they are in the mud and that they will have to live like this for the rest of their lives, when they think of that person, even if they just think about it, they feel that life is not so hard anymore. They think that they still have someone they can care about in this life... Perhaps, one day, their dream will come true and they will be together with the person they love…”

As she spoke, the smile on Hongmei's face became more bitter, because she seemed to have realized that perhaps the man in front of her didn't love her as much as she imagined?
Because my desire for him has reached the point of obsession and madness, but he can actually talk to me calmly, and most importantly, he has never responded positively to my feelings.

The more she spoke of the sincerity of her feelings, the more heartbroken Hongmei felt, because it became increasingly clear to her that the other party did not love her at all, and was only speaking politely to her out of respect as an old friend.

Some feelings are not misplaced, but just unrequited love.

There are some things that you don't feel ashamed to say out loud. After all, you have already prepared for the worst. When you say it out loud, you just want to convey your feelings to the other person, rather than requiring a result.

But what if there really is a result?
"Hehe~ Meiluo - you also have someone you like, right?"

Having said this, Hongmei became more sober. Although her heart ached, she still loved the other person and wanted to communicate with him in a way that made him feel comfortable.

After all...some relationships can be abandoned. Even if you can't become lovers, at least you can still be friends.

Hearing this, Mei Luo was stunned at first, and his eyes began to avoid. Although he was a shrewd man, he couldn't even respond to the words of Hong Mei who was too sincere.

"Well...why did Sister Hongmei suddenly ask me these questions?"

"Because I can sense the frustration you felt when you asked me about my feelings for someone. I can also sense that the person you like is someone you can never have..."

"Ah! Sister Hongmei, are you...thinking too much?"

Mei Luo was suddenly shocked. He didn't expect that he didn't say anything and didn't know where he revealed the flaw, but the other party caught it in one go.

Mei Luo underestimated Hong Mei. She was a prostitute trained by Ji Le Pavilion. Her ability to read people's expressions and to detect emotions were innate talents. Your little tricks naturally could not escape Hong Mei's eyes...
