Reborn Noble Daughter and First Wife

Chapter 263 What I want the most is close at hand
The whole night, Liu Xu sat beside Shen Congjia like this, and he didn't wake up until early morning.

"Sister, how is the young master?"

Early in the morning, Aunt Wang heard about Shen Congjia's illness, so she dragged her exhausted body and came to visit with the help of her maid.

"Not yet awake."

Liu Xu was in a daze, heard the sound, looked up, Aunt Wang's originally rosy face had lost a lot of weight in a few days, and there were dark circles under her eyes, although it was early in the morning, her spirit was extremely poor.

She got up, gave up her seat, and sat down beside herself, pretending to be concerned and asked: "Auntie, why do you look so bad, but you didn't sleep well last night?"

"I don't know what's going on, I've been restless these days, I can't sleep well, and I don't want to eat or drink." Aunt Wang said weakly.

Her series of symptoms were exactly what she wished for. Seeing her complexion today, Liu Xu was secretly happy, but there was a worried expression on her face, and her tone was full of apology: "Sister should have cared more about her. But right now, the young master is like this..." As he spoke, his eyes turned to Shen Congjia who was sleeping on the bed.

Aunt Wang's gaze followed Shen Congjia's face, and she suggested worriedly: "Sister, please hurry up and invite an imperial physician!"

"Someone has been ordered to invite them."

The two of them just chatted a few words, Aunt Wang was very tired, she was not willing to speak, and Liu Xu was not willing to pretend to be enthusiastic, let alone warm like before, they just sat silently looking at each other , waiting for the arrival of the imperial physician.

"How is the general?"

"The general is fine. He just needs to make some adjustments and take a good rest to recover. The old man has already received acupuncture and moxibustion, and the cold poison in his body has been expelled. In addition, the general's body is strong. It won't be long before he will recover naturally. Will wake up."

Shen Congjia was fine, and Aunt Wang felt at ease, so she resigned from Liu Xu and went back to rest first.

When the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician was ready, Shen Congjia also woke up.Perhaps because he was drunk and caught a cold, he had no strength at all, and even when he got up, he was supported by catkins.

"Master, you are finally awake."

Shen Congjia looked up, found himself in the inner room, looked at the bright sky again, and asked, "What time is it?"

Liu Xu fed the medicine and said calmly: "You have been asleep all morning."

"Where's my sachet?"

Shen Congjia rubbed his aching head with his hands, and suddenly found that his hands were empty, and asked eagerly.

"What sachet? I have never seen it before." Liu Xu calmly replied, continuing to feed the medicine.

"Come on." Shen Congjia suddenly roared.

Hurrah, a lot of people came in all at once.

"Master."

"Go, everyone will look for the sachet. Even if you go to the world, you have to find it for me. If you can't find it, you are the only ones to ask."

The little maid brought lunch and stood far away at the door, not daring to take a step.Shen Congjia at this moment is like a furious lion, it seems that anything that approaches him will be bitten by him accidentally, and no one dares to approach him.

Shen Congjia's anger was unexpected by Liu Xu, seeing his aura could turn the entire Shen residence upside down, but just because of that sachet, Liu Xu's heart pumped hard.

In order not to cause trouble, finally Liu Xu called the former little maid and ordered her to retrieve the sachet, and warned her not to mention this matter to anyone, and told Shen Congjiaming that she found it in the study.In this way, Shen Congjia's anger was smoothed over.

After he felt better, he was supported by Xiao Xizi and said that he wanted to relax, but intentionally or unintentionally, he walked towards Haitang Garden.

Standing in front of the courtyard gate, the courtyard was silent, just when Shen Congjia was hesitating whether to go in, Xiao Xizi spoke.

"Strange, it's dinner time, why can't there be any smoke?"

Shen Congjia looked into the courtyard attentively. Not only that, the courtyard seemed surprisingly quiet, and he immediately felt something was wrong in his heart, and strode into it regardless of his weak body.

The house was empty.

"Master, master, look."

Xiao Xizi saw a piece of paper on the table at a glance, he hurried over and handed it to Shen Congjia.

It was a letter with beautiful handwriting, and Shen Congjia recognized Gu Qinglian's handwriting at a glance.

"Cong Jia, when you read this letter, I have already left. Please don't come to me again. At first, I thought that I would spend my life in the Shen family. To be honest, I didn't plan to treat you at first. Give affection, because for me, I can't do it with other women. So, I chose to escape. However, before I knew it, my emotion was no longer controlled by my consciousness, it went to You, getting close to you, led me step by step into your abyss, unable to extricate myself. After so many hardships, I did not give in, but in the face of your distrust, other women around you, I understand , the love that only stays with each other for a lifetime can only be a luxury in the end. After being hurt by love, I realized that maybe you and I should not be together. I am tired. I don’t want to hurt each other and entangle with you I don't know, and I don't want to be a stumbling block for others. I don't want anything anymore, and I can finally be freed by letting go. Finally, I am begging you, don't look for me, never."

She's gone, she's really gone.

Shen Congjia's figure swayed, and his heart ached violently. Looking at the letter in his hand, he realized how much Gu Qinglian was to him.He also imagined how Gu Qinglian would feel the day he left him.At this moment, when she really left, he felt that he felt worse than death.His consciousness felt as if it was hollowed out in an instant, and he felt like a walking dead.

"Master, there is a doctor outside the mansion who said he wanted to see his wife."

Shen Congjia didn't know how he came back, he sat blankly, only saw a young man in front of his eyes, his mouth kept moving, but he couldn't hear the sound at all.

After the boy reported back, seeing that Shen Congjia didn't respond, he also stood dumbfounded.

"Let him in." Finally, it was Xiao Xizi who spoke.

After a while, the doctor came in to salute, and said: "Previously, the old medicine was not suitable for pregnant people to take it all the time. After returning home, the old man developed a medicine that is more suitable for pregnant people overnight. I am here today. Send it."

"Pregnant" dazzled, Shen Congjia heard these two words, his head gradually recovered, he stood up suddenly, grabbed the doctor's arm with both hands, and asked in a slightly trembling voice: "Pregnant? Who has it?" Pregnant."

"Yes... yes... ma'am." Langzhong was frightened for a moment, and replied timidly.

"Really!" Shen let out a low growl from Jia's throat, indescribable joy completely controlled him, and his body seemed to be filled with infinite power.

The doctor was pinched and hurt badly, so he just kept nodding his head.

"I'm going to find her, I'm going to find her." After a burst of ecstasy, Shen Congjia's consciousness was completely awake.

Now his mind is full of these five words, he yelled at Xiao Xizi: "Hurry up and get the horse!"

A roar scared Xiao Xizi staggered and almost fell to the ground, he hurried to the stable.

After searching all over the capital, they finally found Gu Qinglian in a small hotel.

When seeing Gu Qinglian for the first time, Shen Congjia burst into tears of excitement, and it was the first time in Gu Qinglian's life that she saw his tears, and her heart was also moved.

Gu Qinglian stared at him blankly, as if her mind was numb, she didn't know what to say or what to do.

"Everything is my fault. Lian'er, let's go back." Shen Congjia made a sound with difficulty.

The corner of Gu Qinglian's mouth twitched fiercely, she was unwilling in her heart.

"Lian'er, what I said yesterday was not from my heart. I have always believed in you, and the reason why I said that was to want you to leave. However, when you really left, my heart seemed to be emptied. I love you, madly in love with you. I can't imagine how I would live without you."

The man's voice was low and hoarse, but his true feelings were revealed.

Gu Qinglian's eye sockets slowly floated up with damp heat, and the bottom of her heart was sour and moved.

"I know that you hate me, and I have never treated you well all this time. However, none of this is what I wanted in my heart. I admit that I am cowardly and afraid. When I learned that the emperor is bound to get you, I Compromised, weak. I thought that as long as I was cruel to you, I would be worthy of the ancestors of the Shen family."

With a guilty expression on his face, he clenched his fists hard, his knuckles creaking.

"However, when I learned that you left, my world collapsed into darkness. It seemed that I could no longer see the light. I just woke up like a dream——I can't live without you. Are you too?"

His voice was almost hoarse, and a teardrop fell when he fell.

Gu Qinglian approached him slowly, choked up and said, "Yes. The moment I left you, I could clearly see how much I love you in my heart!"

As soon as he said this, Shen Congjia hugged Gu Qinglian tightly in his arms, tears dripped on the shoulders of the two, hot and hot.

Gu Qinglian bit down a row of deep tooth marks on her lips, and tears fell down, "The reason why I left is because I was afraid! I was afraid that you would not love me anymore, but I still love you deeply. I don't know what to do." Continue to live in the Shen Mansion? The words you said that day were like a sharp knife, stabbed deeply in my heart. At that moment, I was almost so sad that I wanted to die immediately. But, I couldn't. This kind of life Better to die, you know?"

She finally cried bitterly, and suddenly opened up about her secret thoughts that she had endured for a long time. She buried her head and beat his chest vigorously, as if she wanted to vent all the humiliation, grievance, and resentment in her heart.

Shen Congjia still hugged her tightly, and gently stroked her hair with his big hands, "I know, I know. You are right to blame me, blame me! As long as you don't leave me!"

Gu Qinglian cried even harder.

They hugged each other tightly, head to head, tears flowing like a river, wetting each other's skirts, like two wronged children, comforting and warming each other.

They are also trapped by reality, in order to preserve what they want to preserve, they hurt each other, but they refuse to face each other frankly.

It wasn't until the other party was heartbroken that they finally saved what they saved, only then did they realize that they were all wrong. Deep down in their hearts, what they wanted to save the most was their love, and what they wanted was close at hand.
