The Story of Dusk 103 EVENTIDE 2

Both of them strayed themselves far from their courtyard until the clamorous party decreased into a buzzing sound.

Qianru let Xiao Jun led the way while she wandered her sight to other places except him and their clasped hands.

"I am sorry for everything that you had been through and what you will face later." Xiao Jun's voice was like a gentle wind in the middle of spring, so calm and warm.

"May I know what you apologize for?" Qianru was walking a step behind him, thus all she could see was his back and the outline of his chiseled jaw.

"Many thing…" Xiao Jun said with dreamy like voice. "To involve you in this…"

"I chose to involve in this." Qianru cut him off before he could continue his remorse. It wasn't the side of Xiao Jun that she wanted to see at this moment, the vulnerable him.

Qianru wanted an argumentation and confrontation. She wanted him to give her the reason for his action in these past weeks, not a remorseful apologized without an explanation.

"I shouldn't let you come." Xiao Jun squeezed her hand lightly to express his regret.

But, Qianru jerked her hand from his grasp and stopped walking at once, her sudden action made Xiao Jun turned around in bewilderment.

"This conversation will not lead us anywhere." Qianru looked at him with disappointed eyes. "Don't apologize for something that I had chose for myself, it wasn't you who ask me to come, it was me who want to be at your side." She said sternly, emphasizing every words.

Xiao Jun looked at Qianru, the woman that he had known for more than half of his life, had never appeared like this.

"… I think you should return to Azura."

"Return?" Qianru scoffed upon hearing the solution that he offered. "How about you stop push me away, because I will not go anywhere!" She exclaimed in anger.

All she wanted was him to accept her and kept his promise to try on their marriage, but seemingly it was only her who kept trying while he continued shooed her away.

"Qianru, the things here will become unpredictable." Xiao Jun stepped forward to reach her, but Qianru reject his advance by avoiding him.

"We have been living like that! I don't mind with the situation, but it is you whom I concern. Why don't you let me in? Why don't you let me help you? Why don't you share your burden with me?"

There was many questions that Qianru demanded answers, but all Xiao Jun's did was preserving his silence.

"…You think I am not capable enough to help you." Qianru was squinted her eyes, it would be hurtful if he assented her words.

Omitting Qianru's self deprecation, Xiao Jun informed her. "I will do something that could raise a riot. It will not save for you being here with me."

"That was all you have been doing since we are here? A plan to raise a riot?" Shock flashed across her eyes, which was hard to conceal. "Where? Here? But for what purpose?"

"It's best if you don't know about this." Xiao Jun straightened his back as his voice turned rigid. "There will be a carriage that will send you to Azura tomorrow morning."

Anger consumed Qianru when she heard the way Xiao Jun spoke to her, before she could sort out her words, she had lashed out what was in her mind.

"If your life is in danger, so do I. No matter where I go, your enemies will not spare me as they see me as your wife! And your enemies are everywhere." Qianru's bright eyes burnt with complicated emotion. "But, instead of keep me save at your side, you will send me away without a second thought!"

"I think about it thoroughly!" Xiao Jun raised his voice. He had really thought about this carefully, how he could push his own wife into a danger? What was in Qianru's mind until she could reach to that conclusion?

"No! You just shove me away like what you always did!" Qianru yelled back at him. "I was very happy when you said that you will try to accept me, that you will try to open your heart for our marriage! But then you gone for days without news, I was humiliated, I know you knew what had happened to me when Zhao Tianqi invited me to enter the palace. But you didn't even ask how I felt!"Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

"I know how you felt, that's why I send you away! You have your family in Azura to protect you!" Xiao Jun grabbed her shoulder and shook her as if he could change her way of thinking by doing that.

Qianru shot him a menacing glared, something that she had never done toward him before.

Xiao Jun should have known what was that mean for Qianru to be sent back to her family mansion, again. They had had this discussion before they came to the Kingdom of Rockstone.

"I will not accept this insult!" An angry tears escaped her eyes as her faith and trust in her husband crumbled.
