Chapter 1173: Strangers From This Moment On
Si Mobai clasped his hands tightly, his cold face becoming even icier by the moment.
“From this moment on, we shall be like this white jade hairpin...” Feng Tianlan raised her hand and threw the white jade hairpin with force, breaking it into two with a crisp bang. “We shall be strangers in this lifetime!”
Following these words, she did not look at him again. She turned and walked away step by step. Even though she was suffering from a devastating heartbreak and felt so fragile that she could fall down any moment, she stood tall with a straight back stubbornly and left decisively. This was the last trace of pride she had left in her.
Si Mobai looked at her back as she left resolutely. He knelt down, picked up the broken white orchid jade hairpin, and said coldly, “Let’s carry on with the ceremony.”
“First, bow to heaven and earth!”
“Secondly, bow to your elders!”
“Husband and wife, bow to each other!”
Feng Tianlan was gradually walking and was already a distance away when she heard the voice of the emcee behind her. Her breath was disrupted, her blood surging. Fresh blood flowed from her mouth, dripping onto the red carpet. The drops of blood disappeared, just like how she should not have appeared in the first place. She had discarded her pride, questioning and begging so humbly.
However, what she could not see was that after Si Mobai picked up the white orchid jade hairpin, he turned and left. The so-called wedding ceremony only continued with just the bride standing there alone and the emcee singing. Everything was extremely strange and abnormal.
However, she would never know this because she was completely heartbroken. Because she left very decisively, and Si Mobai was going to be a stranger to her from this day on!
When she reached the outside of the palace where there was no one else around, she could no longer hold on her trembling body together anymore and fell down suddenly. She opened her heavy eyelids to look at the blue sky and white clouds but only felt an overwhelming sense of depression. Finally, she closed her eyes in despair.
The world had collapsed. So be it, she could just sleep forever. She never wanted to see him again, never!
At this moment, outside of the dream, Feng Tianlan laid on the couch. Her breathing was weak, and her face turned shockingly pale. A black figure sat beside the bed. A huge cloak was wrapped around him from head to bottom, making it impossible for one to see his face.
“Dai’er, all of this is fake. Please wake up soon.” His voice was very soft but very anxious. She was trapped in a dream, and if she could get out, he was afraid that...
He had brought her to the dream realm, because he wanted her to suffer less of these misunderstandings and pain in the future, not because he wanted her to die in it.
“It’s fine for you to simply watch as a spectator. Although it is a dream, it is also real, and we can’t intervene. What’s more, someone has tampered with this dream so her life is at stake this time.” Beside him, the state preceptor looked at the chessboard left behind by Feng Tianlan previously. He had liked her strong personality and aura. She would rather die than compromise, and she also managed to protect those behind her.
However, even the toughest person would lose their rationality and strong determination when it came to love and relationships. Si Mobai and Feng Tianlan were both this kind of people.
The old saying that highly refined steel could turn soft referred to these two people.
“Who manipulated this dream?” The man under the cloak suddenly raised his eyes to look at the state preceptor, revealing his delicate and pale face. The man was Xi Jin!
“An anomaly.” The state preceptor had been meddling with the chessboard and still had not found a way to crack the game. She was such a strong and domineering person who handled things decisively. However, when it came to matters of the heart, she still hesitated.
Upon thinking of this, the state preceptor could not help but look at Feng Tianlan who was lying on the bed and breathing weakly. He could not imagine how a person like her could put herself in a position of grave danger all because of her feelings. Was love more important than life?
