Love's Journey - ☆, Letting Go

The child is gone...
This was tide Chen's first impression upon regaining consciousness. She turned her head slightly and saw Bei Chen's delight and the doctors' relief. She forced a faint smile and tried to close her eyes again, but Bei Chen suddenly pulled her into his arms. In his warm embrace, she could feel his excitement; even his hands trembled slightly as he held her. Xi Chen raised her hand to hug him back, to reassure him, but she had no strength left; her raised hand fell limply to her sides, allowing him to hold her. Bei Chen looked haggard, with deep dark circles under his eyes. Xi Chen had been unconscious for three days, and he had stayed by her bedside for three days, never leaving her side. Seeing her awaken, he was overjoyed, but her smile felt like a knife stabbing into his heart. So, without thinking, he embraced her, afraid she would fall back into a deep sleep and never wake again.
Her weakness pained him, but there were some things he had to do, for his ambition, and to make her willingly submit!
The autumn nights had turned cool, but Xichen still fell into a deep sleep in Beichen's warm embrace.
Looking at her sleeping face, Emperor Beichen's expression softened in a way he had never shown before. He gently stroked her weary face, his heart filled with complex emotions. Was what he was doing right? But right or wrong, he had already done it, and there was no turning back. Now, he could only continue down this path. He lay down beside her, fully clothed, and reached out to hold her tightly. "Xichen, I'm sorry, this is all I can do. This child... I can't bear to have him..."
After regaining consciousness, Xi Chen became much quieter, often staying in her room all day without speaking, as if deep in thought. Bei Chen showed her great patience; when she didn't speak, he stayed with her, never leaving her side. Xi Chen didn't say anything, but she saw everything.
That day, Bei Chen returned from outside, bringing news from Long Tingfeng. He had finally opened the city gates, which meant they were leaving the small house.
tide Chen's face remained expressionless, as if his words had nothing to do with her. Bei Chen stepped forward, grabbed her shoulders, and made her look at him directly.
"I want you to come with me."
He declared domineeringly before her, only to be met with a faint smile. tide Chen gently turned away, freeing herself from his grasp, and slowly walked back into the house. Bei Chen heard her ethereal voice drift back to him; she said, "Okay..."
Inside the cabin, Xichen leaned lazily against the soft couch.
She'd been thinking a lot these past few days. Dongxue's words had indeed hit her hard, but they'd also made her see some things more clearly. Some things, it was time to let go…
Before setting off, Xichen went to Lianyi's residence again.
tide Chen gently knocked on the door and saw Dong Xue's surprised expression. Her wary eyes and defensive posture made tide Chen smile calmly. Did she really pose such a great threat to her?
tide Chen stood outside the door, staring intently at her, and softly said, "I'm leaving tomorrow. Before I go, could I see my second brother one last time?"
Dongxue was slightly taken aback. She noticed the change in how she addressed him; she was now calling him "Second Brother" instead of "Lianyi." Did that mean that only brotherly and sisterly affection remained between them? Seeing her standing there in astonishment, Xichen didn't disturb her but simply waited quietly for her reply.
After a while, Dongxue came to her senses and looked up at Xichen, only to see that she still had a faint smile on her face. After hesitating for a moment, she moved aside and led Xichen into the inner room.
“Lianyi is inside, you…”
Although Dongxue appeared calm on the surface, the unease in her eyes was undeniable. She didn't know if letting this woman in to see Lianyi was the right or wrong thing to do; after all, she had once been the woman Lianyi deeply loved…
tide Chen smiled knowingly, stepped forward and gently took her hand, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I just want to see him one last time!"
Upon hearing her address, Dongxue stiffened for a moment, then looked up at her and saw her smiling sincerely. Did she truly not blame her anymore?
Taking a deep breath, as if making a firm decision, Dongxue opened the door to the inner room...
"He's inside, you... go in..."
That one sentence seemed to have exhausted all her strength. tide Chen smiled without saying a word, and deftly twirled inside…
Dongxue watched her go inside, a hint of nervousness rising in her heart. Although Lianyi had completely lost her memory of the past, the existence of that woman remained a constant threat to her. She found a chair and sat down, repeatedly telling herself to stay calm, but her inner anxiety betrayed her; her clenched hands were covered in sweat from nervousness.
After an incense stick had burned, the tightly closed door was finally pushed open, and tide Chen walked out from inside.
Dongxue stood up immediately as the door opened, and after seeing her come out alone, she let out a long sigh of relief, her tense heart finally settling down.
tide Chen remained calm as he walked up to her and said, "Would you mind giving me a ride?"
Two women strolled one after the other in the courtyard. Autumn had arrived, and fallen leaves fluttered down, carpeting the ground and casting a desolate shadow over the entire courtyard.
tide Chen picked up a fallen leaf and played with it in her hand, her eyes drifting into the distance. "Such a big courtyard, doesn't it seem lonely for just the two of you to live there?"
Dongxue smiled and said, "It's alright. Servants come to clean every day. Lianyi and I don't like being disturbed by outsiders, so we chose such a quiet place."
Don't you like being disturbed?
tide Chen smiled helplessly. He remembered how his second brother used to love excitement and tease him the most, but now he lived in such a desolate place… His expression gradually dimmed, and Dong Xue's words from that day resurfaced in his mind. Was it his fault that he was like this? Or could a year really bring about such a drastic change in a person?
Forget it, forget it, it's all in the past. If being with her is destined to be unhappy, then she might as well let go sooner rather than later, and give him his freedom sooner...
She opened her eyes, the mist in them slowly dissipating, revealing an unprecedented resolve. She turned and gently grasped Dongxue's hand. "Sister-in-law, I'm entrusting my second brother to you. This farewell may be our last. Take care of yourselves, brother. I... wish you both well."
Looking into her eyes, which were filled with sincerity, Dongxue knew it was a genuine blessing, and her eyes slowly welled up with tears.
"I don't know what to do about my second brother's eyes for now, but I won't give up. I said I would cure him, and I will never break my promise. So, I'll have to trouble you to take care of my second brother for the time being. Once I have the prescription, I will send someone to deliver it to him as soon as possible."
Winter Snow nodded with a smile.
The two women finally let go of their resentment.
The two walked slowly in the courtyard, talking calmly, as if they were old friends.
As Xichen reached the door, she stopped and turned to look at Dongxue.
"Alright, that's enough for now. Take care..."
She didn't say goodbye, because she knew she might never see him again.
Dongxue nodded slightly, a hint of reluctance in her eyes.
She abruptly turned back, standing before Dongxue. Looking at this woman who resembled her from her past life, Xichen spoke, "May I say goodbye in my own way?"
"Your way?" Before Dongxue could react, Xichen hugged her tightly.
tide Chen held her in his arms and looked towards Lian Yi's residence.
Winter Snow has the same appearance as my past life. Does that mean they were originally one? If so, then, Yi, from now on, let this woman love you in my place.
The love you want, I can't give you, so I let you go so you can have a complete love. Dongxue truly loves you, loves you to the core. I don't believe I have the same deep affection for you as she does; I... I don't deserve it... So, Yi, be happy, you must be happy. No matter where you are, I will always bless you. In a corner of my heart, I will always keep a place for you... forever... I released Dongxue, but she still didn't seem to understand; she was probably startled by her own actions.
"Then, take care."
She said goodbye loudly, glanced deeply at Lianyi's room, and left without looking back. Watching her straight back, Dongxue felt a deep sense of self-reproach. Had she made a mistake? Should she not have cooperated with Beichen? For a fleeting moment, she felt they were friends, true friends…
Lianyi's voice came from afar. She turned around and saw her beloved man smiling gently at her...
The guilt slowly faded, leaving only his gentle smile.
Dongxue smiled and walked towards him. Whether she had done wrong or not, there was no room for regret. Love is inherently selfish; for the man she loved, she was willing to do anything. From this day forward, Leng Lianyi would belong only to her…
As soon as tide Chen pushed open the door of the small house, Bei Chen Huang pulled her into his arms. "Where have you been? You didn't even say goodbye when you left this morning. I thought..."
Xi Chen leaned against him, a faint smile playing on her lips as she looked at him. "What did you think?" He remained silent, his lips pressed tightly together, but his anxiety was evident in his eyes. He thought she wouldn't come back, that he had lost her… Xi Chen's smile deepened. She reached out and hugged Bei Chen back, feeling his body tremble. Xi Chen looked up at him, her eyes alluring, "Your Majesty, I want to become stronger. Can you help me?"
If her weakness and incompetence could only bring harm to everyone who loved her, then she would become strong, strong enough to protect those she cared about, to shield them from harm, even if it meant paying a heavy price. She had already lost her child; what else could she not lose? Bei Chen remained silent, his eyes filled with contradiction and struggle. Everything was proceeding according to his plan, even her words matched his expectations, yet why did he feel a sense of desolation and resentment upon hearing her words? He hugged her tighter, with all his might.
"Your Majesty..." tide Chen called to him, slowly raising her hand to stroke his sword-like eyebrows, "I have nothing left, only you. I... don't want to lose you too... help me..."
As she spoke, her cherry lips slowly approached, covering his with a tender, lingering kiss...
