The hoarse and despair-filled voice made Li Rui, as well as Xi Ying, look away from the unconscious Yi Huiqing who was lying on the bed.
Their eyes moved to the man who was currently sitting by the bedside and holding Yi Huiqing's hand.
For a moment, shock flashed through Li Rui's eyes when she noticed the state Zhao Zhang Wei was in at this moment.
His phoenix eyes were completely red, his face was pale and she even seemed to have heard a hint of begging and pleading in his voice.
The Imperial Prince was begging her to save her elder sister.
He was so desperate that he didn't feel any shame in bowing his head in front of anyone at this moment. She concluded she and Zhao Zhang Wei have never been that familiar with each other.
When she continued to look at him in a daze, Zhao Zhang Wei was disappointed and said again and this time more desperately.
"Lady Li. if saved Qingqing today then I promise you that I will stay grateful to you for my whole life."
It took Li Rui a whole moment to digest whatever Zhao Zhang Wei was saying. There was no doubt that she had never liked this man.
This man was, after all, the reason behind her elder sister's all sorrows and grievances.
The image of her elder sister that she had to see when last time she had visited Xinhe Palace was still very fresh in Li Rui''s mind …as if she had given up on any kind of hope of living.
Her showing the mirror of reality to her sister that the prince who was also her husband had actually never cared for her sister had also given a huge shock to her elder sister but she had also seen that somewhere her elder sister also knew this.
It was just that her fragile heart had always refused to accept this.
For a moment, that day, Li Rui had wondered whether she did the right thing or not. Her sister's love for the prince even if it was just one-sided, but was at least giving her hope to continue her life in a vicious place like Imperial Palace, but after that day, how will she live there!
It made her wonder just how much brave and courage her sister must have gathered to love a man like Zhao Zhang Wei.
It must have been very tiring.
She had always adored Yi Huiqing and hence she dislike Zhao Zhang Wei for making her sister reach this state.
Now today when the same man was desperately begging her to save her elder sister's life, Li Rui didn't know what she should think.
Had all of her thoughts about Zhao Zhang Wei been wrong from the start or what she was seeing today was just her illusion!
"Rui…"
Li Rui came out of her trance only when she heard her husband's voice.
Her cold and indifferent eyes move away from Zhao Zhang Wei. She understood what Xi Ying had wanted to say so without saying anything, she just moved toward the bed.
Her hand reached out to hold Yi Huiqing's hand and her fingers trembled for a moment when she realized how cold Yi Huiqing's hands were.
Zhao Zhang Wei noticed it.
His phoenix eyes went redder and his hold around Yi Huiqing's other hand tightened. He could also feel the coldness of her body and this coldness was seeping through his bones and heart.
His own words that he had said to Yi Huiqing when had visited Lantai Courtyard rang in Zhao Zhang Wei's ears.
"From today, Benwang will never step inside your courtyard, Yi Huiqing…until you will invite Benwang yourself. Otherwise, Bengwang will not stop here even if you will be on the brink of death."
That day, Yi Huiqing's rejection of his touch had hurt him so much, that he had spat out the words from his mouth that he could never even think of saying.
His mind had been blinded by the rage because his ego had been hurt.
Now today, Zhao Zhang Wei regretted immensely.
He wished to remove the remembrance of that bad memory from his mind. In what kind of bad moment, did he say those inauspicious words that even got true.
He should have never said such a thing because only today he was realizing the severity and gravity of his words.
Now the same words were attacking his heart again and again like knives.
The scene from a shichen ago also flashed in front of his eyes.
Whatever happened in the Imperial Court was very sudden. Zhao Zhang Wei had been surprised when he had seen the dagger flying toward him.
He had panicked not because he could not avoid it. He was a very capable martial artist. However, he could not let anyone see this, and to avoid the dagger, he had to use the high speed.
Just when he was thinking about what exactly he should do, he saw a figure running to stand in front of him.
The scent that lingered around his nose for the first time only increased the panic inside his heart instead of calming him because the circumstances at that moment were very different.
"Qingqing"
Just one scream had escaped his lips before everything went blank for him.
As he had seen Yi Huiqing's body slowly fall down the floor, Zhao Zhang Wei had felt that his whole world was collapsing slowly and slowly.
Yi Huiqing's peaceful smile flashed in front of his eyes as she had been lying in his arms. Blood was constantly trickling down from her chest but she was still smiling.
A smile that was full of peace.
A smile that indicated that she was very happy with whatever happened. That she had been waiting for such a moment.
That she had been very tired of living and perhaps of loving him as well.
Zhao Zhang Wei suddenly felt deep suffocation inside his chest when he thought this.
She might be tired but he still couldn't let go.
He would not be able to live if she really left him alone in this world.
It was at that moment, that he realized this.
