Rebirth Of The Queen

Chapter 228 - 228. About A Dream



Chapter 228 – 228. About A Dream

Until late at night, the new preparations were completed, and everyone returned to rest in their respective rooms. Even so, the warriors and bodyguards stayed awake, keeping the palace safe.

The Zu royal palace was now bustling with excitement as if nothing had happened before.

Fu Xie Lan stood on the side of the window that seemed perfectly open, enjoying the night breeze that tickled her skin.

Currently, the girl was in the moon pavilion. The white building is back to how it used to be. When her mother was still alive.

"Thinking of me?" A voice suddenly broke Fu Xie Lan's reverie. Only listening without turning to the source of the voice, the girl already knew who the owner was.

Whereas she had locked the room she was in, but still, the man entered her room, somehow.

He is Gu Yi. As usual, when he saw Fu Xie Lan standing by the window, the man immediately approached her, hugged her from behind while lightly kissing her long neck while inhaling her aroma.

"Is something bothering you?" Gu Yi whispered.

Fu Xie Lan didn't respond to the man's words, just kept quiet with her eyes looking up at the sky. Like something was bothering her.

"Okay, don't say it if you don't want to," said Gu Yi. But still, no response from the girl made him sigh harshly. Fell silent and then he rested his chin on the girl's shoulder.

"Is the black witch still around?" Fu Xie Lan muttered which was more like a whisper.

"Why suddenly think that, Queen?"

"I don't know, I'm just worried that they will return to this kingdom," Fu Xie Lan replied.

"That is been bothering you ever since earlier?"

Fu Xie Lan just nodded silently.

"They will not return to this place, Queen. Trust me," Gu Yi replied gently, his hands slowly moving wildly under there.

"Don't do it tonight, I am tired."

Immediately, Gu Yi stopped what he was doing down there, again linked his hands on the girl's stomach, embracing her, channeling warmth into her tiny body.

"Okay. I won't," Gu Yi chuckled.

"But after the wedding, I'm free to do it, right?" he added again and at that very moment got an elbow hit from Fu Xie Lan in the stomach.

"Okay, I'm just kidding, Queen," he said then chuckled again.

And after that, the two of them fell silent again. Busy with their thoughts.

Many things were troubling her mind.

"Gu Yi," called Fu Xie Lan after a few minutes of silence.

"Hmm?"

"Can I ask something?"

"Whatever it is, Queen," Gu Yi replied.

"But you have to answer honestly."

"Erm, anything for you."

"How old are you now?" the girl began.

"Do you seriously want to know?"

Fu Xie Lan nodded again.

"I don't remember, Queen. Maybe over a thousand years?" he replied. It's not that he doesn't remember, it's just that he doesn't want to be considered too old by the girl in his arms. Yes, if he calculates it, maybe it has reached five thousand years? Very long life for humans, but only a short time for a demon race like him destined to live eternally.

"Really? A thousand years?" Fu Xie Lan immediately turned around, turning to face the man without letting go of the hug on her body.

Gu Yi nodded, "Did I ever lie to you? Hmm?"

Fu Xie Lan shook her head for a moment. "Then, did you witness what happened seven hundred years ago?"

Hearing that, Gu Yi was frozen on the spot. a faint cold glint flashed across his eyes and it did not go unnoticed by Fu Xie Lan.

"I've heard of it from Xue Ning, but only a few. While I want to know the whole story," said the girl immediately when there was no response from Gu Yi.

"Is something bothering you? It was a long time ago, Queen."

"I know. Just answer, did you know the whole thing?"

"Emm," Gu Yi replied curtly. Seems very reluctant to talk about it. He not only witnessed the events of seven hundred years ago, for he was a victim of those events.

"Was your family also killed back then?" asked Fu Xie Lan, one hand moving to stroke the man's cheek.

Gu Yi didn't answer the girl's question and just stared at her, a longing look.

Ah, Fu Xie Lan doesn't know. Immediately, the girl turned back to face the window.

"Forgive me."

"I just wanted to know a little bit about the incident," she added.

"Someone once told me to find out what happened seven hundred years ago," she repeated.

"Hmm? Who is, Queen?" Gu Yi asked after a few seconds of silence.

"I don't know," she replied.

"Okay, don't think about that, the incident's over, Queen. After all, whoever said that maybe just wanted to add to the burden on your mind."

"Let it go, at least now I'm with you, Queen," he added.

And the man's words managed to create a very clear frown on Fu Xie Lan's forehead. However, the girl did not ask any further.

"I often have dreams about a man," she said after a few seconds of silence.

"Who? maybe I should kill him so he doesn't appear in your dreams again," Gu Yi replied coldly. Sometimes a man appears in a girl's dream.

"Too bad you can't."

"Are you protecting him, Queen?" he said in a tone like disapproval, but still sounded soft.

"No, it's not like that."

"I don't know what it looks like himself," she added.

"Huh?"

"He's with a woman."

"They stand in the middle of a war, I am not sure about the events that are happening in my dream."

Gu Yi was silent again. A cold glint flashed across his eyes, even his facial expression slightly changed.

It same as the last time he parted from his wife, Queen Yu Yi who was trying to save the entire race, while he returned to the Demon Palace because the black witch was also there.

With the thought that the witch in the demon palace was stronger than his queen faced.

And with that thought, he finally regretted his decision for hundreds of years.

And because of that, the warm attitude that used to be attached to him slowly disappeared without him realizing it.

Being the strongest race as well as the ruler of the Artland World can't guarantee that he can save the people he loves. And the events of seven hundred years ago that made him realize that.

If only at that time, he was not greedy and only chose one of them. Maybe he won't lose it all.

In the end, he realized that making a choice was not as easy as turning the palm.

Because of his choice, for seven hundred years he had to bear the consequences.

Life is not just about a choice, but persist in the choice and readiness to bear the risk is the main thing.

And that's what the Lord felt until he met his Queen again. Yes, even though her soul is not perfect.
