Chapter 258 You Don’t Have to Give Me Your Heart
After hearing the sound of the door, Cui Ying opened her eyes, with an unknown emotion in her eyes. She turned her head, looked at the moonlight shining through the window, and closed her eyes again.

He regretted countless times. If, from the very beginning, the relationship between them had not been based on exploitation, perhaps it would not have come to this?

When she woke up the next day, Cui Ying turned around and saw outside the half-open window. Chu Yan was standing under the tree holding Cai Zhuer. He didn't mind letting Cai Zhuer sit on his shoulders with a smile on his face.

Watching this scene, Cui Ying actually felt a little relieved.

She thought of the child who was falsely pregnant due to the poison of the fragrant beads. At that time, Chu Yan said that if he had a child, he would definitely make him the happiest child in the world.

He will never again have to endure what he has endured.

How true the promises made at the beginning were, but now it seems that they are filled with many regrets.

Chu Yan noticed her gaze but did not turn back. If he turned back, she would not look at him again and would pretend that she knew nothing. Secretly, he wanted her gaze to stay on him longer and longer.

Caizhuer's hundred-day banquet was organized by Cui Ying alone. She did not let anyone else interfere. Even the clothes were made by her. Caizhuer also felt her mother's care for her and she was especially attached to her these days.

Apart from Shen Huajiao who was nurturing her pregnancy in Hanzhou, Cui Xu who was taking care of her, and Pei Wenyu and Li Ruiliang who were now traveling around the country, all the people Cui Ying cared about the most gathered here.

They gave Caizhuer the most precious gifts and spoke the most sincere blessings.

Although the banquet was not grand, Cui Ying was very satisfied with it.

Having true friends is more important than anything else.

After the Hundred Days Banquet, Ke Chao proposed to Cui Ying that he wanted to return to Hanzhou.

"Okay, when I have time, I will go to Hanzhou to see my brother, sister-in-law and you."

She did not say that she wanted to see him alone, and the light in the boy's eyes went out in an instant after hearing this.

Cui Ying smiled and looked at Ke Chao. She took a box from Mu Sha and handed it to him, saying, "I didn't use the money you gave me over the years. I'm going to return it to you now."

"Don't refuse. You need it for your business."

"Ke Chao, I have also prepared a gift for you. I wish you a bright future, a peaceful and smooth life, and everything goes well."

Listening to Cui Ying's words, Ke Chao looked at the box she handed over, his eyes flashing, and after a long while he reached out to take it. He opened the box and found a amulet inside.

After he had saved her from the cliff, he had pestered her for a long time, asking her to make him a talisman, but she refused, saying that as long as he stayed out of trouble, everything would be fine.

He never thought that one day, this amulet would appear and represent separation.

"elder sister."

"I want to thank you, too."

Ke Chao took out the amulet and hung it around his neck. The boy had a smile on his face, but Cui Ying saw different emotions in his slightly red eyes, but neither of them exposed it.

"Let's go, don't see me off."

He turned away and held back the tears that were about to overflow from his eyes.

There will always be someone who comes into your life and teaches you how to love and hate.

What does it matter if he can't let go? What does it matter if he can let go? From the beginning, he had no chance, but he still plunged into it, not even asking for any reward.

Cui Ying stood at the door and watched him pretending to be relaxed as he climbed onto the horse. He turned his back to her and waved his hand. He said, "Don't see me off." But in fact, she was afraid because she probably didn't want to let him go.

"Still looking? If you keep looking, that guy over there will be jealous."

Cersei came over at some point and said something to Cui Ying. Cui Ying turned her head and looked at Chu Yan who was standing in the corridor. The man was leaning against a pillar with a calm face and no expression could be seen.

But when Cui Ying looked over, she turned around and went back to her room.

"Oh, I have to leave too. I have things to do in Dongyi. When the political situation stabilizes, I will bring Caizhuer to Dongyi to play."

Then, she leaned in front of Cui Ying and said, "Are you really not going back to Shangjing with Chu Yan?" "No."

Cui Ying reached out and tapped her on the forehead, then walked into the yard with a smile.

Ke Chao left, Cersei would leave too, Xing'er and Xiao Feng'an would leave too, and so would he. No one could stay with her forever.

She always knew.

A few days after Cersei left, Jiangnan sent a letter saying that Mr. Xie was ill. Xie Weixing was extremely anxious after receiving the letter, so Cui Ying asked her to pack up and go back quickly.

"But sister, you..."

"I'm already this grown up, and I still can't take care of myself? Go back quickly and write to me when you get to Jiangnan."

Cui Ying knew what Xie Weixing wanted to say, so she went forward and hugged her. It was already worth it to have a sister like this in one’s life.

She has a family and Jiangnan is her home.

Xie Weixing held her in his arms and reluctantly left Wulei City. Old Xie was old and it would be terrible for him to fall. How could she not be worried?
Most of the people left at once, and the yard suddenly became quiet. However, Cui Ying and Chu Yan had not spoken much since that night.

It was not until the early morning of that day, before Cui Ying got up, that he pushed open the door and walked in.

"Why did you break into a girl's room?"

Cui Ying was wearing a white middle-length dress, with her black hair loose, which was somewhat different from her usual simple elegance.

"Yingying, I'm going back to Beijing."

This sentence struck Cui Ying's heart directly. She looked at him and then turned her head away: "You should have returned to Shangjing a long time ago."

He didn't say anything else, but walked up to her, held her hand and sat on the bed before she could react: "That day when you were drunk, you said something to me."

Chu Yan raised his eyes to look at her, a smile on his lips.

"What did I say?"

She remembered everything that was said that day clearly, how could there be anything she didn't know?

"You said, Chu Yan, I'm afraid that if I give my heart away completely, I will never be able to take it back. I'm afraid that I have taken the wrong step."

He spoke word by word, and Cui Ying's eyes widened: "When did I say such a thing?"

"You weren't drunk that day."

Chu Yan's tone was affirmative, and Cui Ying finally realized that the words he said were not what she said at all.

"You didn't tell me these words, but I saw them."

"Yingying, you don't have to give your heart to me, and my love shouldn't become a burden to you."

He raised his hand, held her face with one hand, and his fingertips fell on her ear: "I will come back when I finish the things in my hands."

There is nothing more important than her in this world. There is no one else for whom he would be willing to give everything.

After saying this, he let go of her hand, gently combed her hair, and then stood up and left.

Cui Ying looked at his back, and the calmness on her face completely disappeared at this moment.

She didn't say what he said, but he understood it all.

"No need, I'll give my heart to you..."

Cui Ying murmured something and slowly tightened her grip.

Chu Yan's love is worth showing off~
