Chapter 1299: Chapter 1121: Xiao’ai, Dabao, Xiaobei

Today the fog was particularly heavy, and the entire world looked gray and gloomy.

Tian Xiaobei gradually understood that Xia Dabao was avoiding her.

Later, he stopped knocking and just stood at the door, speaking through it to the Xia Dabao inside, "Dabao, I know you can hear me speaking. I have to head back now... But, I really do like you a lot. You told me to marry a suitable lady if I met one, but I like you so much, there won’t be any lady better than you. So Dabao, I truly hope you can wait for me for two or three years, at most three years. I will definitely come back to marry you after three years."

Inside the room, there was still no movement, Tian Xiaobei stood there blankly for a while before finally turning around and leaving with his attendant.

Only when the carriage had traveled far did Xia Dabao open the door of the room, watching quietly as the carriage disappeared into the distance.

Two years? Three years?

Would it take that long to see each other again? And what would the circumstances be by then?

...

In fact, Yege and Nan Feng in the room heard everything that Tian Xiaobei and Xia Dabao were saying very clearly.

With the hearing of Yege and Nan Feng, they even knew that Xia Dabao started sobbing after returning to the room.

Nan Feng couldn’t help but turn over and embrace Yege again, "Hey, do you think our decision to retire was a mistake? If you had stayed in Dazhou all those years ago, you might now be the ruler of a nation. As for me, I would fight a fierce battle with the women in the harem, vowing to take down every one of those women who targeted me. By doing so, I could become the Empress and our Dabao would be a Princess. Wouldn’t that prevent some small-town doctor from looking down on us?"

Yege smiled faintly, turning to face Nan Feng, and then gently lifted her chin, "But would you have been happy living those days?"

"Not happy at all," Nan Feng sighed.

"Then that settles it. Our lives are much more carefree now. As for Dabao, I can only say that life is not always smooth. The setbacks that Dabao is facing now are her destiny, and she must find her own way through them. Moreover, not everyone who has loved each other can end up together in the end. It depends on fate. Whether Dabao and Xiaobei are meant to be, we can only go with the flow now and see if they can eventually get back together."

Nan Feng nodded, "Ah, if only Xiaobei had your courage back then."

Yege laughed, "Not every man in this world can be like me. I am one of a kind."

Nan Feng smiled, then poked Yege’s chin playfully, "Look at you being smug!"

"..." Yege kissed Nan Feng again, and then his thoughts drifted back to many years ago—

That year, when he left the Imperial Palace, he heard that Nan Feng had escaped from the clutches of Consort De, taking Dabao and fleeing alone.

At that time, he thought of nothing but mounting his swift horse and exiting the city, searching around the inn for days and nights, hoping Nan Feng had left some clue, yet there was nothing at all. He had no idea where she had gone.

During that period, he was like a madman, extremely chaotic mentally, believing surely that Nan Feng blamed him for neglecting her and not caring enough for Dabao, which led her to leave without a word, leaving him clueless about her whereabouts.

He spent that time staying in various inns, striving to recall the words Nan Feng had said.

She had once told him that if she ever left Dazhou, she would return to Dajin, yet she didn’t want to go back to Daping Village again. She said Nan Quanyou’s grace was already repaid, and she didn’t want the Emperor of Dajin to find her.
