Chapter 893 - With You And For You.
Back inside the palace, the golden chandelier lights were all switched on, killing the darkness from the early night sky outside. Everyone was nearby but still a bit busy with their own pieces of stuff.
Shin Tinming was back working on his file matters, but still every now and then his eyes would get to look at his wife to check on sothing. But then again seeing her smiling with ease without any frown on her brows, he would feel everything to be normal, even though knowing there was sothing in the mid he was missing.
And at the sa ti, Chen Rui looked really happy. Her facial expressions weren't showing any pretentious emotion, rather everything about her for Li Xue was looking very genuine. Today, she was personally deciding the nu for the dinner, checking and keeping everything in the suit of Li Xue's taste.
While Li Xue who was sitting beside her was silently nodding to her every word and suggestion. Her eyes were keeping a check on the young boy at the front who looked like he was enjoying his ti well, playing with her little one. Like previously, in the garden, he wasn't the one to challenge her in the first place.
Chen Rui gave the last na of the dessert to the butler before asking him to present the sa to the royal chefs in the kitchen.. Then turning to look at Li Xue, she followed her gaze and smiled. "You Jun might look a bit arrogant sotis, but believe he's just a bit childish in reality. His arrogance is nothing but what a child holds up in his innocence. You will know him better by spending ti with him like today".
She said and hearing her voice suddenly popping in her ears, Li Xue turned to look at her with a bit of raised brows of amusent.
Seeing her getting amused at her words, Chen Rui chuckled and asked in an easy tone. "What? Do you not believe it?"
Li Xue shook her head. "No, no, I was just a bit surprised. You were talking to Mr. Cao a mont ago and I didn't think you would be paying attention to as well like this. As for him, I know he is still young and enjoying his childish days. I don't mind his words. It's just that it's fun to play and banter with him." She explained as curling her lips as well while once again looking back at the duo playing.
"You love that?" Chen Rui asked with surprise and hearing her ask that Li Xue nodded without any hesitation.
"Yes, I do like that, It gives a feeling of having a younger brother who is just opposite to the younger sister I once had by my side". She ntioned the na of Li Yenay. It has been really long since she last rembered her and even today, rembering her like this brought a sad smile.
Chen Rui has heard about her younger sister and also knows well about her tragic death. But she never knew that it still held an important core part in the mories of the girl. Reaching out her hand to provide so comfort, she gently patted for her and said, "That was an accident. You should give so ti to forget the past. There is nothing left back in ti. The present is what matters for the future."
She said but at her words, Li Xue's expressions didn't ease, instead beca sharper. "How should I give ti to forget it when I know it wasn't an accident but a trap laid to bring to my lowest?" She said and her words for a mont stunned Chen Rui.
It doesn't need to be spoken twice to make her understand what Li Xue ant to say with those words.
"Should forgetting the things just to keep at ease be a choice for ?" Li Xue asked again, turning, almost with tears in her eyes. But those tears looked all insignificant in front of the sharpness and seriousness her amber orbs held in them.
Chen Rui looked at her and it wasn't any hard for her to empathize with the pain, the girl must be feeling inside. Shaking her head, she denied, "Then being ruthless can only be the cure. Don't hold back because holding back will never put your enemies to perish. Though I know you are capable enough yourself but still, if even you feel yourself getting alone in the process, rember we all are at your back. With you and for you!"
The queen said and those words were all that Li Xue felt to be needed at the mont. This was the first ti she heard soone comforting her like this and she must say, that gave a surge of a different feeling in her heart. Her lips curled on their own as she nodded to assure. "Don't worry, Ma. I got the plans to put them to perish. And I am already on it."
Chen Rui nodded. She believed and couldn't doubt it even a bit. "I believe that. Anyway, forgetting all that, do you know one thing about You Jun?"
Li Xue shook her head, her eyes getting a bit intrigued at her words before turning to look at the young boy with so interest.
"He rarely talks with any girl. And seeing him converse with you so freely, only ans one thing. He has already started to take you as soone from the family. No matter how he is with you now, he will definitely support you in front of others. Sothing that a brother would do for her sister. So if you have started to consider him as your brother, then rest assured he is no different from you".
Chen Rui said getting on the confident side while giving a wink to her and Li Xue didn't know how she should react to it. Though she knew the queen had no other purpose to bring her and that young brat together, still there seed sothing amidst a bit unbelievable. Still nodding, she accepted, giving a smile.
To which the queen chuckled and shook her head. "It's fine. You don't have to force yourself to believe like that. Just give so ti to it and you will genuinely agree"
