Here, no one knew that she was the eldest daughter of the Ye residence. No one reminded her to be more polite, and no one talked so much about her.

This place was as beautiful as a paradise.

It was isolated from the rest of the world, standing alone in the frame of a beautiful world.

Ning Yunyin looked at her with a smile, as if she was happy for her happiness.

"In that case, let's stay here." Ning Yunyin poured a cup of tea for Ye Jinxiu and spoke indifferently.

It was as if he was proposing something strange for tonight's meal.

Ye Jinsu was stunned for a moment. She turned her head to look at him, as if suspecting that she had misheard.

What did Ning Yunyin say? Stay here?

Suspicion could be seen in Ye Jinsu's eyes, as if she was suspecting whether Ning Yunyin had said the wrong words or if her head had suddenly expanded. However, when Ning Yunyin looked at her, her eyes were filled with calmness.

He was serious. Ye Jinsu could read this sentence from his eyes.

Ye Jinsu's heart was thrown into chaos.

She looked around again. Indeed, this was a beautiful place. There was nothing bad about staying here. However, there was nothing here that Ning Yunyin could desire, and it did not contain his ambitions.

This place was a paradise for Ye Jinsu.

It would only be a cage that trapped his hands and feet.

Ye Jinsu shook her head, as if she had heard a joke. "Are you serious?"

"What will you do?"

Ning Yun curled her lips into a smile. "I'll stay here to accompany you."

The smile on Ye Jinxiu's face faded. She suddenly lowered her head and remained silent for a good while.

"Did you choose to stay for my sake?" Ye Jinxiu lowered her head to look at the withered yellow bamboo leaves scattered on the ground, her voice trembling slightly.

She could actually understand the answer. Just like Ning Yunyin understood her, she also understood her.

But was this really what Ning Yunyin wanted?

"The situation in the capital is no longer within my control." Ning Yun spoke up from the side.

"This place is like a painting, it is indeed a good place to go, isn't it?"

Ning Yunyin's words made a lot of sense, but Ye Jinxiu couldn't help feeling that something wasn't right. She silently shook her head. Ning Yunyin shouldn't be like this. She shouldn't have given up so easily.

These were all excuses.

He was so outstanding that he was the smartest and best candidate amongst all the princes.

"No …" You don't think so, you just... "It's just for me …" Ye Jinsu spoke in a low voice. She bit her lips and was unable to continue.

She heard Ning Yunyin's soft sigh as she lowered her head to look at her. "Isn't that good?"

"We can always be happy here. As you said, this is a beautiful place, and I like it here. "

"So, I am not only doing this for you, but also for my own selfishness."

"I want to see you happy forever."

His voice was too gentle. It had the power to bewitch everything.

Ye Jinsu almost wavered. She had two villains in her heart. One wanted Ning Yunyin to stay, while the other didn't. Two crazy little guys were fighting in Ye Jinsu's mind, so she couldn't think properly for a while.

Ning Yunyin said that she liked it here too.

Ye Jinsu looked at him, not knowing for a moment whether what he said was true or false.

She could only stand up and say in a low voice, "You should think about it. This is not child's play."

Then, Ye Jinsu left in a hurry. Her heart was beating exceptionally fast, she couldn't say whether she was happy or not, she was just too surprised, too caught off guard.

She was very happy here. To be able to find Ning Yunxiao once again was a blessing in disguise for Ye Jinsu in her entire life.

Therefore, she felt that even if she were to return to the capital with Ning Yunyin, nothing else mattered as long as she was by his side. She was willing to accompany him as he walked on that road that was as cold as the sun.

They would always be each other's warmth.

However, she had never thought that Ning Yunyin would take a step back.

She didn't know how to answer.

In a quiet bamboo forest, Ning Yunyin watched Ye Jinsu's departing back and lowered her eyes slightly. Her long eyelashes cast an undisputable shadow on his face. The weather was not bright in the late autumn, and the bamboo forest near evening was slightly dim.

Half of Ning Yunyin's face was hidden in the shadows, and she was silent for a long time.

There was a rustling sound in the bamboo forest. Some birds in the distance were flopping into the bamboo forest. They seemed to have lost their way in a patch of bamboo leaves. They were walking through the forest with great difficulty. A rustling sound came from all directions. Ning Yunyin raised her head to look at the source of the sound. Suddenly, she stretched out her hand.

She formed a ring with her fingers, then placed her hand in front of her mouth and whistled.

The birds in the forest seemed to have found their way to the room in an instant, flying towards Ning Yun.

Ning Yunyin extended her hand, and a pure white bird landed on her arm. It was a bird of excellent color with no impurities in its entire body, and the feathers on its body seemed to be suffused with a faint light.

Ning Yunyin reached out to grab it and removed the tube from her leg.

Ning Yunyin released her grip on the bird and tossed it away without hesitation. She didn't even open the bamboo tube. The bird that was suddenly sent flying didn't seem to have reacted in time as it continued to circle above Ning Yunyin's head.

It wasn't until he confirmed that Ning Yunyin had no intention to reply him, that he circled the area a few times and flew away.

There was only a small slip of paper inside the tube. Ning Yunyin only glanced at it for a moment before she lowered her hand as if nothing had happened. His reaction was very ordinary, as calm as if nothing had happened.

Ning Yunyin turned around and walked to the stream at the side. She silently reached out her hand and crushed the paper in the water.

The white paper floated along with the stream and disappeared into the distance.

From the beginning to the end, Ning Yunyin's gaze was calm, as if the wind of the night hadn't been able to make the heavy ink on his body fall at all.

Ye Jinsu sat in her room in a daze. The gradually rising night covered her face with a layer of haze.

Ning Yunyin couldn't hide the truth from him. She knew very well that the words Ning Yunyin had said to her in the bamboo forest had merely been to comfort her. Ye Jinsu knew very well that he belonged to that part of the capital.

But what choice should she make? Should she let him stay, or leave?

Ye Jinsu looked at this simple wooden house. It wasn't flashy at all, not even a tenth of the size of the big houses in the capital. However, Ye Jinsu felt that if only the heavens would be nicer to her, she would be able to be reborn into such a blissful and ordinary family.

People are always unsatisfied, having this and wanting that.

In her previous life, she wanted good days. In this life, she also wanted ordinary and happy days. Ye Jinsu couldn't help but think that if she allowed Ning Yunyin to stay, then everything she wanted would be completely satisfying.

But he would be a good king, a king who would benefit all the people in the world.

Ye Jinsu knew his ambitions better than anyone, and had never thought of trapping him.

But now, she wavered.
