The Empress Behind the Veil
Chapter 416 Not Wanting to Make Yourself More Suffering
Oi! I am an article!
The door of the Mufang Pavilion opened and a creaking sound rang out.
Leng Bingxin who was originally curled up on the bed finally turned around involuntarily, the candlelight outside the door dazzling the eyes, making others involuntarily block the light by hand.
Oi! I am an article!
At this moment, a thin and tall figure approached him slowly.
The man had a charming face, red lips and white teeth, as well as a dazzling look. In the bright candlelight, it was as holy as the figure of a God, as if he did not belong to the mortal world at all.
Outside the candlelight was a dark area, already like a bottomless hole that made the hearts of others who saw it feel cold.
Leng Bingxin tidied up her messy clothes then sat cross-legged on the bed, staring coldly at the man who was under the candlelight.
Oi! I am an article!
His figure slowly approached, not looking at all the slightest bit of desire on top of that handsome face.
After which, he placed the candle he had in his hand on the table then stepped his foot towards Leng Bingxin.
Leng Bingxin said: “It's so late, why did you come here?”
Bei Fengchen smiled faintly, the gaze of her eyes that were as warm as the moonlight that rose outside the window, so beautiful and gentle. But it instead made others feel a kind of hidden and unfathomable killing intent.
Ever since Bei Fenchen spoke to Beifeng Funing, Leng Bingxin knew that Bei Fengchen was not as simple and weak as he seemed.
After a long time, Bei Fengchen slowly said in a voice as light as a feather: “Have you heard everything tonight?”
Leng Bingxin was not a fool, so she could not deny it. And again based on Bei Fengchen's so unpredictable thought, there was no way he could not guess that Leng Bingxin was there tonight.
So Leng Bingxin said in a nonchalant tone: “It looks like Beifeng Country does have the intention to swallow Kangqing State right? Spending so much effort building so many beautiful women to work hard for you, all you are looking forward to is all this isn't it?”
Bei Fengchen's flat eyes glimmered slightly, his face looked a little unsightly under the candlelight, not knowing what his face looked pale from actually having an illness, he said, or because a foreign woman like Leng Bingxin knows her secret.
“You are very smart, a pair of eyes that look indifferent but can instead see so many things.” Bei Fengchen did not answer him directly, but instead gave a praise that sounded very ear-piercing.
Leng Bingxin smiled helplessly, although her gauze-clad face was a little sore but Leng Bingxin still kept smiling.
Leng Bingxin said: “What else can a man have besides the power to control?”
“Because you know all this, why do you still say it?” Bei Fengchen's face became increasingly dark and cold, this was not the first time Leng Bingxin had seen Bei Fengchen who did not look gentle and warm. Bei Fengchen who was now covered in a layer of ice, made others feel so cold.
“What if I say it? So what if I don't say it? Since I can't change the facts, why should I bury and keep it a secret in my heart? It's already painful enough, I don't want to make myself suffer any more!” Leng Bingxin said flatly as she looked at Bei Fengchen's expressionless face.
It was as if this sort of thing had already become commonplace to Leng Bingxin. Unlike other women who cried loudly after learning that she was being taken advantage of, Leng Bingxin was also unlike other women who forced Bei Fengchen to promise something. Leng Bingxin's calmness and indifference made Bei Fengchen have a hint of heartache.
Bei Fengchen said: “As Prince of the Country of Beifeng, conquering the country and fighting the world is my mission, it has all been my duty since childhood.”
Leng Bingxin smiled faintly, her smile was full of contempt and indifference, Leng Bingxin said: “Prince? In your heart, are you really willing to be a Prince?”
As soon as the remark was said, even though it was pitch-black before him, Leng Bingxin could still feel the entire body of this person before her was transfixed.
