SHE LIVE STREAMS MODERN LIFE TO ANCIENT PEOPLE AFTER FAILING TO CONQUER THE EMPE

Chapter 120: Using gentleness as Gu Sang, the emperor was moved

Chapter 120
"From your expression, it seems you're not satisfied? I'm a man, how am I supposed to know what you women like? I noticed you enjoy putting on makeup, so I thought you'd like all these products. You can use them for a long time."

"Before I bought it, you said it's the thought that counts. Now that I've bought something, you're still not happy. I really don't understand why you women are so hard to please."

Hearing her boyfriend's explanation, Chen Yun said to herself:

Don't get angry, don't get angry.

This is just how clueless guys are.

He doesn't know much about women's cosmetics. Even a $10 eyeshadow might seem expensive to him. If he actually knew how to buy gifts that girls like, she'd be worried!

In ancient times, at Xuyang Palace.

Emperor Pei Changying spent his nights drinking and sleeping in Xuyang Palace.

He gazed at the steps Gu Sang had walked on, the chaise she had reclined on, the bed she had slept in...

Only within Xuyang Palace could he sense the traces Gu Sang had left in this era.

"Sang Sang, I've made a mistake. When will you come back?"

"Sang Sang, come back and assist me, please? I can't go on without you!"

"Sang Sang, I still remember that early winter when I fell ill after falling into the water. You stayed by my side day and night. You said you would never leave me. Why did you break your promise?"

"Sang Sang..."

Gu Qingrou entered Xuyang Palace with a complex expression.

The first thing she saw was the man she had loved for years, looking so heartbroken over another woman.

The guilt, remorse, melancholy, and deep affection in Pei Changying's eyes were all for that radiant half-sister who didn't belong in this era—Gu Sang.

Gu Qingrou walked over and sat down beside Pei Changying, gently holding his hand.

Her heart ached terribly with each "Sang Sang" he uttered.

But she still forced a gracious smile and said kindly, "Your Majesty, Sister Sang doesn't belong in this world. It doesn't matter that she's gone. You still have me."

"I will always be by your side, and I will never leave you."

Pei Changying hugged Gu Qingrou with emotion, his eyes filled with desire and longing: "If only Sang Sang had said those words to me, I would be overjoyed."

"But alas, alas..."

Alas, she wasn't Gu Sang after all?

Gu Qingrou's heart felt as if Pei Changying had pierced it with an arrow. Blood gushed out, and her heart ached, but she couldn't cry out in pain.

As Pei Changying kissed her passionately, imagining her as Gu Sang, calling out "Sang Sang" and "My Sang Sang," Gu Qingrou felt a moment of resistance.

But then she closed her eyes in self-mockery.

So be it.

Gu Sang would never return.

If His Majesty could love her as Gu Sang's substitute for a lifetime, that would be happiness enough...

That night, they made love until midnight.
