国产对白熟女受不了了

However, when she saw Li Rui’s blank face and blank eyes, she couldn’t help but feel a little uneasy.

”Rui…”

She held her daughter’s hand and whispered softly

”I know that all of this might be very sudden and hurtful for you.”

Yi Jie didn’t know about anyone else but she knew very well that her daughter had really taken Princess Wenling as her true friend otherwise why would she have fought with her father to go to the Imperial Palace.

Even though she didn’t like that place, she would still go there just because she didn’t want the princess to feel alone.

That was how caring and lovable her daughter was.

Now knowing that the same person tried to kill you…even she had been shocked and furious when Xi Ying had told everyone that Princess Wenling even sent people to kill her daughter.

She felt despair for her daughter.

She felt sad that her daughter sent ointment for Li Caihong even after so much happened only to get all this in return.

When Li Rui didn’t say anything for a long time, Yi Jie got worried.

”Rui…”

Li Rui came out of her trance and smiled tightly at her mother.

”I am alright, Mother.”

Yi Jie sighed in relief and nodded her head.

She continued to hold her daughter’s hand and said a few moments later.

”Rui, they deserved whatever they got. In fact, they deserve more.”

Yi Jie’s eyes were cold when she said this. Li Rui was less surprised than before. However, she couldn’t help but feel warm inside his heart.

This was the first time she was seeing her mother talking about someone like this and it was for her.

She smiled softly. Yi Jie was relieved to see that Li Rui was at least smiling. She also smiled and said what she had inside her heart from long ago.

”Prime Minister Xi really adores you.”

Li Rui’s smile vanished and she blinked her eyes vigorously as if to confirm whether her mother really said what she heard.

Yi Jie chuckled seeing this.

”Are you shy…?”

”No…No…Mother. I was just…”

Yi Jie chuckled again knowing very well that her daughter was feeling shy. She patted her cheek and said

”I am relieved now. Seeing how he stood up for you in front of the Emperor, Mother knows that Rui will stay happy with him always. Still, Rui…if someday anything …and Mother really means anything…if anything happened then never hesitate to come to Li Manor.”

Li Rui looked at her mother in confusion as to why she said this.

But Yi Jie never explained anything. Her heart was filled with many things. Now that she looked back at four years in the past, she regretted that she didn’t stand up against her husband and bring her daughter to Li Manor when she had been suffering here in Xi Manor.

But if things repeated themselves in the future, Yi Jie promised herself that she would never do the same again.

”Li Manor is also your home, my daughter. Mother is still your Mother…”

Yi Jie blinked her eyes to stop her tears but a tear still slid down her eyes. All these words, she was supposed to say when her daughter had married Xi Ying more than four years ago.

However, circumstances have been different back then.

”Mother and Father will protect you with their anything, Rui.”

Li Rui’s throat wobbled she nodded her head seriously. Though she looked calm from the outside, her inside was different.

It felt good to hear these words from her mother.

She couldn’t help but remember how her father had made her promise four years ago that she would not leave Xi Manor regardless of whatever will happen.

At that time, she had wished for him to say the same words her mother said today. But what he had said was completely different.

At that time, she had wondered whether her father still disliked her for whatever happened seventeen years ago in the Imperial Palace.

Holding her mother’s hand, Li Rui kissed its back softly and whispered

”Rui is fine. Mother should not worry.”

Li Rui had never expected that her words would make her mother cry. Sobs erupted from YI Jie’s mouth and she suddenly had her daughter in her arms.

”Mother… what happened?”

Li Rui asked in confusion but Yi Jie didn’t say anything and continued to cry. What could she say?

She just remember the evening she had gone to see her daughter after the incident four years ago. That evening also, she had been crying like today but when she had gone to see her daughter, she had composed herself.

She had thought that she needed to be strong for her daughter.

So as soon as the maid had informed her that Rui was awake, she had wiped her face and had gone to her courtyard.

However, when had she expected that it would her daughter instead who would console her. Li Rui never cried. Any other girl if had been in her place would have looked different.

But Yi Jie remembered how calm her daughter looked at that time. As if she had seen more strong winds in her life than that one. Something had broken inside her heart at that time and today happened the same.

So it was not Li Rui who cried. It was she who cried for her daughter’s loss.

’Rui is fine. Mother need not worry.’

That evening, she had said the same words as she hugged her in her arms and patted her back.

In fact, Yi Jie could no longer remember the last time her daughter cried in front of her. The daughter who would come running to her on getting just a small scratch was long gone.

She and her husband had lost their Rui long ago!

She wished to say to her daughter that she could cry sometimes in front of her. However, Yi Jie could not gather the strength to say anything.
