The Legend of Shen Li (English Translation of Yu Feng Xing 与凤行)

Chapter 14

The little lotus wiped her tears, quietly pondering. 

Finally, she took a deep breath and decided, 

"I want to see the this side of him. 

If I walk away now, I will never get the chance to say goodbye. 

Even if in his eyes, I am nothing, ever since I've opened my eyes in this world, he has been my everything. 

He is the most important person in my life." 

Recollections of memories floated through her mind, causing her eyes to redden once again with tears, 

"I worked hard to become become a real person, learned how to talk, studied human customs, just to gain his favor, Just to be with him.

Not kill me, ah."

Shen Li sighed, squatting next to her, 

"Although what I'm saying is a little cruel, you must listen.

 That Prince Rui, raising you from birth, only to slaughter you, for him, this is the only value you have. Anything else, no matter how much you do, even if you beg him, he will be completely cold and aloof. 

It has no value, do you understand?" 

Shen Li held her face, using her thumb to wipe of her tears. 

"Therefore, you must quickly stand back up and walk to the future. 

You are such a good girl, so forget about him, this world has so much more beautiful things to explore."

In the back, Xing Yun quietly looked at Shen Li's squatting figure. 

The little lotus miss also stared at Shen Li before lowering her head, 

"You are carefree, but me." 

She lowered her head, burying her face into her knees. 

She sounded unwilling as she said, 

"I would like to see what kind of woman she is, to make the prince go through such efforts to revive her. 

I want to know, between her and I, how big the distance truly is."

Shen Li stood up, exchanging looks with Xing Yun. 

He spoke, "Go take a look-, You'll have to face disappointment eventually . "

Shen Li's mouth twitched, thinking in her mind. 

Why would you need to see her once again? 

The fact is already there. 

Even if little lotus is better in every aspect than the woman lying on the bed, the one Prince Rui loves is not her. 

That cannot be changed. 

But seeing little lotus being so persistent, she swallowed down her thoughts, and said instead, 

"Okay, okay, I'll bring you to see her. 

When we go down, hide behind Xing Yun while I find an excuse to lead Prince Rui away. 

Then, you can stare at her as much as you like." 

The woman was already dead, it's not like little lotus can harm her.

Shen Li used a special technique, instantly teleporting them to the secret chamber. 

Shen Li signaled Xing Yun with her eyes to little lotus, Xing Yun quickly moving to block her with his body. 

Shen Li then walked inside, finding Prince Rui sitting by the bedside.
