The reborn prostitute will turn the sky

Chapter 953 This Love Will Not Wait (Thirteen)
His eyes were like light, and he could see through her thoughts.

But she didn't want to admit it, she still treated Duanmu Kai with indifference, and said: "I have nothing on my mind, master, you read it wrong, it's really getting late, you should go to rest earlier."

Her attitude angered Duanmukai, she was clearly angry, but Duanmukai didn't understand why she was angry?
For some reason, Duanmukai always had a hunch that if he didn't speak clearly today, he might lose her.

He grabbed Linger's hand and said anxiously, "Linger, listen to me."

Ling'er was grabbed and panicked. She struggled twice but couldn't get away. She could only look at him helplessly and asked, "What do you want to say?"

Duanmukai had thousands of words, stuck in his heart, and he had made preparations early in the morning, but when he looked at her, he couldn't say anything.

He sighed silently, and said helplessly, "You may have misunderstood me."

Hearing this, Ling'er let out an oh, looked at Duanmu Kai and said: "If it's really a misunderstanding, then don't let it go, master, I don't want to hear it."

Her tone was indifferent and unfamiliar, as if deliberately keeping a distance from him.

"Ling'er," he called, frowning.

Linger looked at her with a bleak smile, which made him feel a little sore. He faltered and asked, "Linger, what's wrong with you, why are you looking at me like this?"

Ling'er pursed the corners of her lips, and said, "Master, I heard that the emperor intends to grant you a marriage."

Hearing this, his expression changed, and he looked at her and asked nervously, "Who told you? How did you know?"

This matter was announced suddenly at night, how did she know that she did not enter the palace, and who told him?

Duanmukai was a little nervous, looking at her, his heart sank, he frowned, and asked, "Who told you?"

Ling'er shook her head with a wry smile, and said, "It's not important, what's important is that you're getting married soon."

Duanmukai twisted it, looked at Linger, and said with guilt in his eyes: "Even if I want to get married, your position will not change."

After hearing this, Ling'er smiled even more bitterly, looked at him and asked, "What position?"

Duanmukai blurted out that he was his wife, but when he raised his head and looked into Linger's eyes, he couldn't tell. Her eyes were very calm, as if they were covered with a layer of fog, making it hard to see. real.

Duanmukai was a little flustered, grabbed Linger's hand again, and said nervously: "Linger, don't think wrongly, things are not what you think."

Ling'er was no longer in the mood to listen to what he had to say, she showed a tired look, and after a deep sigh, she used a little strength to break away from Duan Mukai's hand, and said very weakly: "Whether I want to be crooked or not. , everything doesn’t matter anymore, master, we are not from the same world, I used to be overconfident and had fantasies about you, but now it seems that I am self-indulgent, master, I am really tired.”

She is really tired, and now she wants to have a good sleep, it is best never to wake up, as long as she does not wake up, there will be no so many troubles, many things are stuck in her heart, making her a little I can't breathe, especially when facing Duanmu Kai.

Looking at her pale face, Duanmu Kai felt a little distressed. He was still silent when he was ready to say something. No matter how much he said, she might not believe it.

He is indeed going to get married, which is what the Empress Dowager means. He is already old, and he urgently needs a strong backing. Marriage is the best way.

It's just that he couldn't explain all of this to her. Even if he made a promise, Duanmu Kai didn't know if he could keep it.

In the end, he let go of Linger's hand and said with a wry smile, "Then you should rest well and don't think too much, Linger, trust me."

In the last sentence, Duanmukai was also a little guilty, he didn't know if Linger would believe him, he was a little unconfident.

Ling'er didn't speak, just took a step back and closed the door.

Duanmukai stood outside the door, looking at the closed door, feeling a little pained in his heart. Since returning to the imperial capital, the distance between him and Linger has become farther and farther. Duanmukai didn't want to see all this.

But he had no choice, the scene of the concubine's death was still lingering in front of him, he was really unwilling, so he just gave up.

From that day on, Linger's attitude towards Duanmukai became more and more cold, she was trying her best to forget Duanmukai, he was still not her beloved.

Faced with such a change, Duanmukai felt heartbroken and helpless. He had too many difficulties to express.

When the queen mother called him into the palace, she saw that something was wrong with him and asked him aloud.

Duanmukai wanted to prevaricate, but the queen mother is not a fool, so she is not so easy to fool.

Duanmukai looked at the queen mother, sighed helplessly, and said: "Grandmother, I just feel a little tired. Fighting for the throne is not that important to me. I just want to avenge my mother and concubine, not That position."

After he finished speaking, he looked at the queen mother, and he could obviously feel that the face of the queen mother had turned darker. She was angry, but the queen mother was a queen mother after all, and she didn't show it. Instead, she smiled, looked at Duanmukai, and asked: "Then what do you want?"

Duanmukai looked at her, knowing that she didn't want to hear this, but he still pretended to be brave and said: "What I want is just a peaceful life. I have nothing to do, indulge in the mountains and rivers, have no achievements and no benefits, and be content."

The queen mother gave a gracious smile, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and she didn't seem to be angry at all. Duanmukai thought she agreed with his point of view, but when he thought about it later, Duanmukai realized that perhaps it was from then on that the queen mother decided to Forcing him, leaving him nowhere to retreat, but to be at her mercy.

At that time, the queen mother looked at him with a smile on her face, and her eyes were full of love, and said: "The Ai family knows that it is difficult for you, but now the arrow is on the string, and I have to send it out. Old Ten, even if you feel wronged, you have to bear it for the time being." Yiren, after this period of time, Aijia will consider your thoughts for you."

After hearing what the queen mother said, Duanmukai was overjoyed. Does the queen mother mean that she intends to let herself go?
He immediately thanked the Queen Mother and said, "Thank you, Grandmother."

After returning from the palace, the first thing Duanmu Kai wanted to do was to find Ling'er. These days, the two had separated a lot, and Duanmu Kai didn't want the relationship between the two to be so weak.

He picked out a gift and wanted to give it to Linger, but when he returned home, he found that the atmosphere was not right. After asking, he found out that it was the daughter of Minister of Rites who had come to the house, and Linger entertained her.
