She tightly pursed her lips, her voice was very stubborn, but she refused to give up, “Is there no other way?”
“Although chess is like life, once you make a move, you can still regret it, but you cannot regret it in life.”
Feng Tianlan was still holding the chess piece tightly, she looked up at Imperial Preceptor, “Then you should at least let me know what my life will be like, so that I can make my next move, right?”
Not letting her know anything was equivalent to not letting her look at the chessboard, letting her play with her eyes blindfolded, and still wanting her to win?
Wasn’t this a joke?
The Imperial Preceptor looked at the night sky. Because of the barrier, the cold wind did not blow in. The night sky was also lit up by the stars. He could not see the crescent moon. From the corner of his eyes, he looked into the darkness.
“You might as well go back and ask Si Mobai. He will tell you.” The Imperial Preceptor did not say anything in the end.
Hearing the Imperial Preceptor’s words, Feng Tianlan frowned. “He won’t tell me.”
If he wanted to tell her, he would have told her long ago. Why would he wait until now?
“Have you asked?” Seeing Feng Tianlan choke on her words, the Imperial Preceptor said calmly, “If you don’t ask, how do you know he won’t tell you?”
“If he wanted to tell me, he would have told me long ago. He wouldn’t have kept it from me to this extent.” If he hadn’t fainted in front of her again, she probably wouldn’t have known about this until now. She wouldn’t have suspected it even today.
The suspicion she had that day was right, but she had trusted Mobai and Lapis Lazuli too much. She did not expect that both of them would lie to her. Since they lied to her, then it must be related to her.
“If you don’t ask, and he doesn’t tell you, then it is the fault of both of you. If you ask, and he doesn’t tell you, it will lead to a misunderstanding between the two of you. That is his fault, so you might as well ask.”
Feng Tianlan looked at the Imperial Preceptor who spoke in a seemingly profound but simple manner and knew that he would not tell her. “Then if I ask him, and if he doesn’t tell me, will you tell me?”
“Sure.” This time, the Imperial Preceptor agreed straightforwardly.
Feng Tianlan opened her palm and looked at the chess piece. Then, she thought of Si Mobai and felt a little anxious. She glanced at the Imperial Preceptor and hurriedly left. She wanted to ask him, she wanted to hear him say it personally.
After she left, Si Mobai walked out from the dark and sat at Feng Tianlan’s seat. His face was extremely pale.
“Why did you decide to tell her?” The Imperial Preceptor looked at Si Mobai who was sitting opposite him.
Two hours ago, Si Mobai had arrived here and told him that the silver needles could not suppress his love and longing, and even allowed the worm to double its growth. It was estimated that in less than a month, the worm would be fully grown.
“Didn’t you say that other than the person who planted the worm, no one would be able to remove the worm?”
The Imperial Preceptor looked at Si Mobai, whose cold voice was filled with sorrow, and nodded lightly, “If it were an ordinary heart linking poison, we might be able to find a way, but this is the Twin Heart Linking Poison, and it was refined by Biling with great effort. In this world, no one can remove it except for her.”
Thus, his struggles these past two months were all superfluous.
“Since I can’t do it, then I can only compromise, right?” Si Mobai chuckled as he looked at the dark night in front of him. It was as if there was darkness in his eyes, “If that’s the case, she will find out sooner or later. Instead of letting her find out from someone else, shouldn’t she find out from me? At the very least, I’m better than Biling.”
Without the other party’s consent, he did what he thought was good for both of them.
If he discussed with her and let her weigh their options herself. She would know what to choose..
