According to Du, Xus father t with an accident while on a business trip, and a soldier saved him. He then invited the soldier to a banquet. The soldiers subordinate who ca with him was apparently Xus lover.
Ming told that that Dong person seed interested in music.
It seed he had taken Yui is words to heart when she told him that it might be good if you listen to music. He had been walking around listening for the sound of lute.
However, even if he did hear the lutes music, he would only shake his head while saying theres better music out there.
Mings that Dongs obsession with the lute and having an ear for music despite being a soldier might be because he was affiliated to a brothel. Du, on the other hand, thought of another possibility, apparently.
Her lutes sound would linger in your ear for ages, so its quite troubleso.
Du comnted with a wry smile, so Yui i frowned.
The way you say it sounds like that person might be addicted to Miss Xu.
Yui i unwittingly mumbled, and Du rubbed his chin upon hearing that.
I see, addiction, huh, so is it possible to see it that way? Its supposed to be rely a beautiful sound, and yet it could even charm scoundrels for so reason. That point is also quite a nuisance, said Du.
Those who hear Xu play the lute would beco imrsed in its sound, and they would discover her true worth, leading to them trying to get their hands on her and possess her.
It was as if Xu was a drug that could delude people.
No, accurately speaking, those who covet what wasnt theirs would turn her wonderful music into their drug.
Wait, wait, theres no way Miss Xus existence is the sa as that pest opium tobacco!
Yui i imdiately denied her earlier thoughts.
Xu genuinely loved the lute, and she must have practiced really hard in order to gain the approval of the people she loved.
However, scum adults had trodden on feelings, instead.
It would not be odd if Xu hated the lute after all she went through in the past, thinking that it destroyed all that was dear to her.
However, the existence of her lover must have barely connected her back to her lute.
Perhaps, she might even have thought that no matter how many months passed without eting her lover, he would find her back through the music of lute. However was Yui i deluding herself too much with these thoughts?
Unfortunately, Xus lover died, so she lost the motive for playing the lute.
But then, what if he was still alive? In that case, Xu might find the aning of her lute once again.
However, they also had to consider whether Dong was really her lover or not.
Lord Du, do you think Dong is Miss Xus lover?
Yui i straightforwardly asked, and Du looked like he was having trouble answering.
I dont know. I dont even know who he is. Besides, he had spent a long ti in the battlefield, so his appearance mustve changed, too. Even if he was a forr aquaintance, Im not even sure if Ill recognize him
Indeed, you have a point there.
Yui i agreed with Du
Ten years had already passed since they got separated.
That period of ti was more than enough for a person to change inwardly, not to ntion their appearance.
There was the possibility of the guy abandoning Xu for another woman, or he could have truly died in battle. He couldve also decided that the battlefield was where he belonged, thereby staying there for good.
There were many possibilities, and among them, the chance that he returned because he pined for Xu since forever was quite slim compared to the others.
Yui i unconsciously started to frown as she mulled over these thoughts, when Du interrupted her musings.
Even if that Dong guy isnt Xus lover, it is still necessary for him to recover his mories.
According to Du, he couldnt divulge the details, but apparently, there was sothing fishy going on in the borderlands, and he thought that Dong mightve been involved in so kind of incident that caused him to lose his mory.
