Chapter 1019: Chapter 1019: Reunion

"This matter is of great importance, I’ll tell you about it later, okay?"

"Enough, we are but strangers who have met by chance. Since you are unwilling to speak, there’s no need to force you." Xuexue’s voice became very distant.

Knowing full well that he has returned to the capital and even seen her several times, yet he still refuses to acknowledge her?

What does he mean by this?

Could it be that after regaining his memory and learning of her noble status, he now scorns her for merely being a girl from the Nong family? Hence, not even a word of farewell when he left?

All he did, was it just to avoid disgracing himself?

The more Xuexue thought about it, the more plausible it seemed, and her expression grew increasingly troubled.

Watching the constantly changing expressions on Xuexue’s face.

Long Rui knew he was overthinking it.

"My lady, don’t overthink it. Everything I do is for your safety."

"War Prince, we are not engaged to be married, and it is improper for you to address me in such a manner. Please call me Miss Situ or the young lady, lest it causes misunderstanding and tarnishes the Prince’s reputation," Xuexue’s voice clearly carried a note of petulance.

Indeed, the person she thought she trusted the most had deceived her so much. Anyone who just learned the truth would be somewhat overwhelmed.

"My lady, remember this, in this lifetime, you are the only woman I want." Long Rui’s eyes burned intensely as he gazed at Xuexue, an image of deep affection.

These days have been hard for him too; two people in love so close to each other yet unable to recognize one another. The agony of it was beyond words.

What pained him even more was that he kept trying to get close to Xuexue, but the oblivious Xuexue kept retreating until that day at Qinger Building, which ended up in a huge commotion.

And it nearly caused her harm.

Fortunately, she had her space to protect herself and managed to escape. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unthinkable, a thought that increasingly alarmed Long Rui.

That day, Xuexue’s appearance had changed, he did not recognize her, and so, when he took action, he naturally showed no mercy.

"It is late at night, War Prince. It’s improper for a man like you to stay in my boudoir. Please take your leave, War Prince." Xuexue cut to the chase with a firm ejection.

A vagabond’s identity suddenly turned into the War Prince, anyone would struggle to accept such a thing.

Long Rui expressed understanding and decided to give Xuexue some time to sort things out, perhaps she would get over it in a couple of days!

"My lady, I’m leaving, I’ll come to see you in a few days."

Seated on the bed, Xuexue sulked, silent, completely ignoring him, as if he was just a puff of air.

Long Rui had no other choice but to vanish with a flicker, planning to return after a few days when Xuexue’s anger had subsided.

"How annoying."

Although she was very sleepy, Xuexue suddenly couldn’t sleep at all after being informed that Long Rui was Big Bull, her mind thrown into disarray.

The next day.

Xuexue, with dark circles under her eyes, arrived at Old Madam’s courtyard.

The Situ Qinger and her three siblings seemed to have taken a liking to her; these past few days, they visited Old Madam early every morning.

Upon seeing her appearance, Situ Qinger gloated and said: "Big sister, did you go out thieving last night? Look at those panda eyes."

After speaking, she covered her mouth with her hand and giggled.

Situ Zhi was even more biting with his words, bluntly saying: "I reckon big sister was too lonely, staying up alone at the third watch of the night, definitely sneaking around outside after some wild man! Otherwise, how could you look so disheveled!"

Old Madam frowned upon hearing this: "Zhizhi, don’t talk nonsense. If these words got out, your big sister’s reputation would be ruined."
