Chapter 1157 - 1157 1143 Who Knows My Heart

Chapter 1157: Chapter 1143: Who Knows My Heart? Chapter 1157: Chapter 1143: Who Knows My Heart? Looking at He Xibai, Guo Yuyun sneered, “You’ve found a new love interest, huh?” She just couldn’t believe that those who were good-looking and lovesick would be faithful.

“Actually, you’re wrong there,” He Xibai replied as he ran into the room and came out with a stack of letters, tossing them beside the table. “Song Xizhi sends a letter almost every three days, without fail, asking if you’re well, sharing amusing stories, and even asking if he can come to visit.”

Guo Yuyun was taken aback by the thick stack of letters—at least a dozen or so. Had there not been so many, she wouldn’t have realized how much time had passed. She put down her chopsticks and said, “Ever since I left, a letter every three days, without interruption.”

“Yes, basically one every three days, never stopping. I feel so bad for him that I keep wondering what to do,” He Xibai admitted.

Guo Yuyun looked at He Xibai and said, “What do you mean, you feel bad for him? Are you interested in him or something?”

“What use is it if I like him? I’m thinking about you. You don’t have any feelings for the guy, and if it goes on like this, that poor kid will fall deeper and deeper and won’t be able to pull himself out. If that’s the case, it would be better to tell him straight that you’re not interested. Let him get over it. I’ve been the one replying to the letters on your behalf lately, but I’m afraid of hurting him. I really don’t know what’s the best approach.”

Looking at the confused He Xibai, Guo Yuyun opened a letter and exclaimed, “Wow, this handwriting is very nice, kind of reminiscent of Wang Xizhi, isn’t it?” She had not even read the content yet, but the handwriting alone was captivating. Such fine calligraphy couldn’t have been created without a lot of careful work.

He Xibai was speechless, shaking his head. The girl was actually teasing him. Did she have no conscience? “It’s taken you over a dozen letters to notice his nice handwriting? Probably only you could be like that.”

Guo Yuyun, realizing that He Xibai was defending Song Xizhi, thought for a moment and felt that she was indeed cruel. “It must have taken so much thought to write all these suggestive contents,” she murmured guiltily.

Upon hearing this, He Xibai felt truly sorry for Song Xizhi and said, “He would be so upset if he knew you were making fun of his letters.”

Guo Yuyun had never seen He Xibai so anxious before and smiled. “Don’t worry, I’ll read every single letter without missing any, and I’ll study his calligraphy carefully—perhaps even learn a thing or two from it.”

“That would be best.”

“You didn’t write anything implying that I like him in your replies, did you?”

He Xibai glanced at her, at a loss for words. Lately, he had been replying to the letters very carefully, never daring to write anything inappropriate, for fear of hurting Song Xizhi.

Guo Yuyun continued to read the letter and said, “He really wants to come and see me.”

“It’s not just one letter that says so,” He Xibai responded. “Several letters express his desire to visit, but I couldn’t agree without your permission.”

“You seem like you want to agree. Otherwise, why haven’t you just flatly refused?” Guo Yuyun said, looking straight into He Xibai’s eyes to see if the girl had any feelings for Song Xizhi.

“What are you implying? What good would it do if I wanted to agree?” He Xibai said, growing agitated.

“If you really do like him, I could play matchmaker for you two. Leave it to me.”

He Xibai became extremely angry and said, “That guy really likes you. Don’t hurt him; you’ll get your comeuppance for doing so.”

Seeing He Xibai genuinely upset, Guo Yuyun pouted; she had never seen her friend this angry before.

He Xibai cut to the chase, “Ahhh, I can’t keep this up anymore. If you don’t like the guy, just tell him directly. I really can’t write these letters anymore.”

“But it seemed like you were getting along fine with him in the letters. I think it’s not just casual chatting.”

“That’s because he thinks he’s chatting with you, not me; otherwise, he wouldn’t bother,” He Xibai clarified. “This can’t go on; the young man will get in too deep.”

“You’re afraid of getting your own comeuppance, aren’t you?”

“Yes, I never should have agreed to help you with such an unethical thing,” He Xibai said, genuinely concerned for Song Xizhi and feeling indignant on his behalf.

Guo Yuyun read on, saying, “He mentioned the flowers he sent me.” She stood up.

“Aren’t those the ones by your window?”

“Were all of those from him?” she asked, noticing the abundance of flowers.

“Right, like I have the time to buy you flowers.”

“He’s treating my place like a flower shop. I should give some to my sister,” she said.

He Xibai snorted and said, “You should just tell him straight that you’re not interested and let him give up hope.”

“No, wait! Why should I be uninterested?”

“What do you mean, you’re not going to let me keep going like this, I’m going to hell. Going to get struck by lightning.”

Guo Yuyun saw He Xibai getting anxious and found it amusing, chuckled and said, “It’ll be you getting struck, not me, it’s fine.”

“You think you have no responsibility in this!”

“Such a chat, each letter is like reading a novel, it takes so much heart, how can one not be interested.”

“I can’t do this anymore, I have to make things clear to him, tell him the truth. I can’t take this any longer.” He Xibai had been holding back for a long time, always considering when to extricate herself.

Guo Yuyun continued to read on and suddenly said, “Let him come over.”

He Xibai couldn’t believe it, looked over and asked, “You’re letting him come to find you, did I hear that right?”

“Yes, I’m asking him to come to me, do you hear me clearly now?”

“So when the time comes, you’re going to find ways to cold-shoulder him and hand him over to me, right? I won’t be part of this.” He Xibai shook her head first; she didn’t know how to face that young man.

It seemed that this girl still cared about that young man, she chuckled and said, “Don’t worry, if I invited him, I won’t intentionally torture him, do you really think I’m a sadist? I’m not, that would bring bad karma.”

He Xibai snorted in disbelief, truly a bit incredulous, and said, “Why suddenly let someone come over.” She couldn’t quite figure it out.

Guo Yuyun, however, had other plans. Her mother had been trying every method to pressure her into finding a partner lately. She was sick of all those strangers, drooling over her, starting off with talk of having children, or else pulling out a bunch of impressive backgrounds. It was suffocating. With Song Xizhi, it wasn’t so direct.

At least he wasn’t as detestable, he was someone she knew, and he could at least fend off others for a while.

Seeing Guo Yuyun’s faint smile, He Xibai turned around and said, “You’re letting him come over as a shield, aren’t you?”

Guo Yuyun smiled and asked, “Does he mind being a shield?”

“That’s despicable.” He Xibai didn’t know what else to say and suddenly turned around and went out.

“You still haven’t told me, what have you two been talking about all this time, did you even tell each other what color underwear I wear?”

He Xibai, infuriated, shouted, “Yes, we told everything.”

Guo Yuyun giggled and continued looking at those letters, and really, those letters were written quite earnestly. Each letter was five or six pages long, every word written with sincerity, probably wanting to share everything about their day, almost to the extent of detailing trips to the latrine.

Who could have thought, in the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed, and he really had the patience. It was somewhat touching. Who wouldn’t be moved? Without asking, she wouldn’t have known, so many letters had been written.

Only now did she realize how fast time had flown by, suddenly feeling sentimental. It seemed time to say goodbye to the past. What else could she do now? Thinking of this, tears welled up again as memories rushed through her mind.

After such a chaotic period, Ye Chen had already been dead for four months. Looking back, she realized her mother’s scolding was justified. If Ye Chen were still alive, she could have come to him whenever she wanted, but now that he’s dead, what else could she do? Wasn’t she going to live the coming days?

She couldn’t bring more pain to the people around her. Her mother had already suffered enough; not being able to empathize with her mother, to help her, was extremely unfilial. She couldn’t just think about herself.

Looking at those letters, she didn’t know why, but the tears just couldn’t be held back anymore.

Guo Yuqing was waiting, waiting for news of Ye Chen. After Li Mo left, there had only been one letter, and that was it. Three more months had passed. What was happening with them? She was worried because not destroying the ring meant Ye Chen could lose his mind at any moment.

Suddenly Luo Rui walked in, followed by several girls. They were bringing gifts packed in boxes, some edible, some wearable.

Guo Yuqing looked up and asked, “Who sent these?” It was a redundant question; how could she not guess? Lately, Demon Palace City and Immortal City had been in frequent contact, so these gifts were surely sent by Su Zhanze.

Su Zhanze knew there was a rift between them, and without consent, he didn’t dare come directly; every time he came to Demon Palace City, he would have someone deliver gifts.

“These were sent by Su Zhanze.”

Guo Yuqing lifted her head and asked, “What’s he here for again?” She was still somewhat resistant, but not as much as before. In recent times, Su Zhanze really had done quite a lot for the realms of the Immortals and Demons. Even if she stayed isolated in her yard, she still heard plenty of news.

Demon Palace City spent two months without being able to capture the Tianye Demon. After Su Zhanze and disciples of Immortal City got involved, however, they quickly made progress, having already caught the Tianye Demon. All that was left was to capture his followers. It was an achievement worthy of praise. If it were left to Demon Palace City alone, it wouldn’t have been possible in such a short time.

Luo Rui knew Guo Yuqing had unresolved issues, but during this period, she also noticed a significant change in her, “They will soon capture all of Tianye Demon’s followers, they plan to continue working together to eliminate the remnants of Shangguan Heiqi as well. These scourges currently don’t dare to cause trouble, but who can guarantee they won’t in the future.”
