Chapter 1349: Chen Xinyi’s Endga (Part 2)
Seeing the change in her expression, a wave of anxiety struck Xi Lin. Patting Xiao Wang, who had just woken up, she asked Feng Tianlan, “What’s wrong? What has Chen Xinyi done?”
Feng Tianlan read the delicate words penned down. Biting her lower lip, she answered in a trembling voice, “I’m sorry.”
Xi Lin peeked over Feng Tianlan’s shoulder to read the letter’s contents. The expression of worry on her face transford into one of shock. No words escaped her speechless lips. In the end, she sighed.
The letter was addressed to Master Shen and written in Chen Xinyi’s flowery hand:
“Master Shen, by the ti you read this letter, I would have since departed this world. Forgive for my selfishness. It would help if you didn’t hate , but I would not bla you if you did. This is the thod I have chosen to etch the mory of myself into your heart. I hope you will always rember …
The Peony Gate Sect was a subordinate organization under Feng Yunsheng’s control. It has always acted from the shadows, orchestrating and shaping important events in the Xuantian Continent. As far as my sources indicate, the destruction of the Shen family was caused by the Peony Gate Sect. Therefore, allow to present you with the heads of the Peony Gate Sect. This is my wedding gift to you. This is but a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it.
I’m sorry that my love has caused you trouble. Perhaps I can do sothing for you. My love is not so shallow and useless.
In fact, I hated you. I hated you so much that I thought of snatching the Demon King from under your nose ti and ti again. That hate slowly turned into love, and from then on, all I could ever think about was making you happy. In hindsight, thinking of snatching soone as powerful as the Demon King from you was beyond foolish. His Eminence is not soone a small character like can hope to spirit away.
I was a complete ss. I’m not sure if you’d understand that feeling. I wanted to speak my mind, but I did not know where to start. I rely said whatever ca to my mind.
It is the 18th of December – the day you were supposed to wed the Demon King. If he were here, I wonder what sort of expression he would have had seeing your wedding. I think his reaction would have been a feast for the eyes.
Unfortunately, I won’t ever get the chance to. I won’t receive the pleasure of witnessing such a scene.
All I ask is to spend a day with you, uninterrupted. I don’t know if you will agree, but I don’t think so the more I think about it. My love for you is not natural. It is a twisted sort of love that only brings you trouble… I’m sure you must hate .
Now that I have gone – to lands further than you’ll ever reach – I doubt we’d see each other again. Do you regret your actions? Do you feel guilty for being so cold to ?
I feel conflicted. I wanted you to feel guilt and regret, but I was afraid of making you unhappy. My greatest wish remains unchanged. I hope that I’ll always occupy a small space in your heart. When you read this letter, I ask that you burn it as soon as you are done and perhaps, toast a glass of wine in mory of .
I was afraid that you would forget the day of my death, so I deliberately chose the 18th of December. It was such an auspicious day – the day chosen by you and the Demon King. On such a wonderful day, I’m sure you would rember the girl who died giving you your wedding gift.
I neither wish for your guilt nor regret because I have never regretted eting and falling in love with you. I ask that you grant this one selfish mory to take with to my grave.
… I’ve written so much. My thoughts seem to be all over the place. I wrote whatever ca to mind since I did not know if you would read this letter of mine. Perhaps you’ve already thrown this letter away, reading this long-winded spiel that makes so little sense, even to . I’m sorry. I couldn’t focus. The thought of never seeing you, Master Shen, ever again was too much to bear. I am… reluctant to part…
But… It is for the best. With gone, you won’t have to burden yourself with worries for . It would help if you didn’t rember in that way. I don’t want to sully my love for you. Wouldn’t that be the best of both worlds?
There are still so many things I want to tell you, but I’m sure you’ve grown tired of what I have to say, so I shan’t say more.
eting you has been the greatest fortune in this life of mine, Master Shen. My life has not been in vain. I hope we do not et again in the next life. The Demon King wouldn’t be pleased otherwise. liking you then would only beco a problem again.
I hope you recognize my writing. I hope that my liking will make you feel that you’re lucky.
… Do you like the wedding gift I gave you?”
“Xinyi wrote it herself.”
