"Wan’er." Xiao Jinxing suddenly pulled Bai Mowan.

Bai Mowan bit her lip.

Yet, at that moment, she didn’t resist.

During this period, she had intentionally been cold towards Xiao Jinxing, firstly to express her own stance that she too had her temper, and secondly, she was waiting for Xiao Jinxing to give in.

Usually, as long as she showed even a slight bit of anger, Xiao Jinxing would become very anxious and would coax her.

Because of Ye Qichi, Xiao Jinxing’s attitude towards her had changed a lot.

This time, he had actually ignored her for so long.

Only now did he come closer to her voluntarily.

"Let’s go, I’ll bandage you." Saying this, Xiao Jinxing led Bai Mowan to his courtyard. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Bai Mowan unwillingly entered Xiao Jinxing’s room.

Xiao Jinxing lifted Bai Mowan’s arm.

There was a deep sword wound on her arm, which hadn’t been properly cleaned or bandaged, and now blood beads were clearly seeping out again.

Xiao Jinxing seriously helped her to stop the bleeding.

It still hurt somewhat.

Bai Mowan clenched her lips tightly.

"You can be mad at me, but don’t neglect your own body," Xiao Jinxing said.

Such a wound on the arm was clearly intentional by Bai Mowan on the battlefield.

At that time, a key enemy general directly targeted Bai Mowan.

Xiao Jinxing was not far away.

He hurriedly moved forward to rescue her, but Bai Mowan rejected him.

She directly charged forward to fight the enemy general.

Her arm got slashed by the opponent.

If they had confronted him together, this wouldn’t have happened.

If Xiao Jinxing had arrived a bit later, the injury might not have been limited to Bai Mowan’s arm.

Thinking about Bai Mowan’s impulsive actions, Xiao Jinxing still felt somewhat reproachful.

War is certainly no child’s play.

Of course, what worried him more was her disregard for her own safety.

Towards Bai Mowan, he could never truly remain indifferent and unconcerned.

Her getting hurt naturally pained him as well.

Bai Mowan endured the pain, listening to Xiao Jinxing’s words, yet she did not respond.

Clearly, she was still angry with Xiao Jinxing.

"Wan’er, since childhood you have been by my side, providing me with warmth. For a long time, the only woman in my life has been you," Xiao Jinxing started to say.

Bai Mowan bit her lip.

She looked at Xiao Jinxing, her eyes turning red, "I thought the same. I once thought I could love the King of Chu, but I realized that the person I have always loved is you. For you, I traveled to the border, rejecting the King of Chu’s marriage proposal. But now, you tell me that Ye Qichi is your Princess. What do your promises to me count as? What do I count as?!"

The more she spoke, the angrier she became.

It seemed as if all the frustrations she had suppressed in her heart were bursting out.

Xiao Jinxing was somewhat silent.

Towards Bai Mowan, he was ultimately, guilty.

"Ye Qichi has also been good to me," Xiao Jinxing murmured.

Bai Mowan just looked at Xiao Jinxing.

It was the first time she heard Xiao Jinxing proactively comment on Ye Qichi.

He said that Ye Qichi was good to him.

So.

Was she not good to him?

So, was he moved by that?

"Ye Qichi has repeatedly nearly died for me," Xiao Jinxing looked at Bai Mowan, "I can’t just ignore that."

"So, what do you plan to do about me?" Bai Mowan asked him.

Xiao Jinxing’s Adam’s apple bobbed, he suppressed his inner emotions and said, "I’m sorry."

Bai Mowan laughed.

She laughed, tears coming out.

Xiao Jinxing’s kindness to her today was not out of love for her.

It was just to make it clear to her about his feelings for Ye Qichi.

It was just to reject her.

"Wan’er, even if we cannot become husband and wife, I will still treat you as the most important person in my life, I will take care of you."

"I don’t need it!" Bai Mowan pushed Xiao Jinxing away.

Before her arm was even properly bandaged, she no longer let Xiao Jinxing touch her.

"I don’t need your care, what I wanted has never been mere care!" Bai Mowan’s tears streamed down her face.

Hearing these words from Xiao Jinxing, she truly fell apart.

Has Xiao Jinxing really fallen in love with Ye Qichi?!

Loved to the extent that.

He has already decided to give her up.

"What about all those promises you once made to me? Do they mean nothing now?" Bai Mowan questioned.

"I’m sorry." Xiao Jinxing apologized.

"Then what did my rejection of the Chu King for you, my journey far to the border for you, count for!" Bai Mowan couldn’t accept it, her emotions suddenly intensifying, "I believed in you and left without hesitation, so believing in you, this is how you treat me? If you can’t make commitments to me, why let me believe in you like this!"

Xiao Jinxing witnessed Bai Mowan’s sorrow.

His heart ached as if being cut by a knife.

To say he doesn’t like Bai Mowan would be a lie.

He is fully aware of his feelings, very clear about his feelings towards Bai Mowan, it’s definitely more than just duty and being moved.

He truly likes her.

But now... however, at some unknown time, he began to care more about Ye Qichi.

Every move and word of Ye Qichi easily stirs his emotions.

Today, when he lifted Ye Qichi out of the barrel, at that moment of looking at her body, he almost made a decision.

It wasn’t lust.

But.

Had it been Bai Mowan.

He would never have done so.

The presence of Ye Qichi has become natural.

He suddenly doesn’t want to change anything anymore.

"Xiao Jinxing, you will never understand how much pain I am in!" Bai Mowan glared at Xiao Jinxing fiercely.

Watching his utter indifference towards her.

In her past life.

When she died, she truly realized who the person she loved was.

It was Xiao Jinxing, not Xiao Jinsen.

She was just deceived by Xiao Jinsen.

This life, her heart was completely devoted to Xiao Jinxing.

Because she knew his feelings for her.

However, now.

Now, Xiao Jinxing has abandoned her.

Unable to accept.

Unable to accept such an outcome.

Her eyes, red and filled with tears.

Her eyes tightened.

In the room, Xiao Jinxing’s Treasure Sword hung in the most conspicuous place.

Bai Mowan stepped forward and grabbed the Treasure Sword.

By the time Xiao Jinxing reacted, the Treasure Sword was already in Bai Mowan’s hand, and without hesitation, she slashed it towards her own neck.

"General Bai!"

Xiao Wu was also shocked.

As he stepped forward to stop her, Xiao Jinxing had already moved first, grabbing the blade with his bare hands.

The blade sliced through Bai Mowan’s neck, bleeding profusely.

It also cut Xiao Jinxing’s hand, with blood dripping down the sharp sword.

Because of Xiao Jinxing’s interference, Bai Mowan couldn’t cut deeper.

"Wan’er, put down the sword!" Xiao Jinxing exclaimed emotionally.

"Brother Xiao, let go." Bai Mowan’s eyes were full of tears.

"Wan’er!"

"To me, you are too important, so important that, I can’t... lose you!" As he spoke.

Bai Mowan clenched her teeth, and with a strong pull.

She yanked the Treasure Sword out of Xiao Jinxing’s hands.

The Treasure Sword cut deeper into the palm of Xiao Jinxing’s hand.

After pulling out the Treasure Sword, Bai Mowan aimed it at her own abdomen.

With one thrust, she stabbed herself in the abdomen.

"Wan’er!" Xiao Jinxing cried out in horror.

Just watching her, she collapsed right in front of him!
