I'm the villain in the book

"Young master, that's it."

After Chu Xianping finished the last sentence, the hall fell into silence again.

Wei Changtian watched him silently, with regret in his eyes.

Indeed, what Chu Xianping said just now can indeed explain [-]% of what he hadn't figured out before.

But there is only one point Wei Changtian still hasn't got the answer.

That's why Chu Xianping kept it a secret from himself.

Of course, if you ask yourself, Chu Xianping will definitely give you an answer, and the content is nothing more than "to make this scene more realistic", "to deceive Lu Hongji" and the like.

However, Wei Changtian felt that this was not the real reason why Chu Xianping even lied to himself.

You must know that even if it is a false betrayal, such a shocking deception will definitely make me dare not trust him in the future.

Chu Xianping will not fail to understand this truth.

Then, he must have other plans.

"Ugh"

Smiling wryly and sighing, Wei Changtian actually had a vague guess now.

Or maybe he had guessed this way before.

Therefore, after a moment of silence, he didn't ask any more details about this "big drama", but asked softly in Chu Xianping's suddenly complicated eyes:
"Brother Chu, when do you plan to leave?"

"."

when to go.

Such a question undoubtedly has a lot of meaning, and it also made Chu Xianping stunned.

Maybe it was unexpected that Wei Changtian could guess this level, maybe it was because he was surprised by the latter's "tolerant" attitude towards him.

In short, when Wei Changtian asked this question, Chu Xianping lowered his head for the first time.

The shadow of the candle flickered, reflecting the figures of the two of them.

After an unknown amount of time, Chu Xianping slowly raised his head.

He first took out the Kuilong Token of Elder Heitai from his bosom and put it on the tea table, then he knelt down in front of Wei Changtian without hesitation.

"Young master, I will never forget your kindness in knowing you."

"."

Seeing Chu Xianping with an extremely solemn expression, Wei Changtian's expression was still calm, as if he was not surprised by his current behavior.

"So, are you really going to seek this world?"

"Yes."

Chu Xianping finally didn't hide any more, lowered his head and slammed on the ground: "I don't know if it will be possible, but I want to give it a try, and I hope you will succeed."

"What if I don't make it?"

"Then I will stay."

"What if I want to kill you?"

"I have nothing to say."

"."

For three consecutive questions, Chu Xianping answered without the slightest hesitation.

And Wei Changtian also paused at this moment, and sighed softly from the bottom of his heart.

Sure enough, Chu Xianping still has that "big ambition" that is different from his own.

He probably had this plan long ago, and helping him win the national war and killing Lu Hongji were probably the last two things he did to repay his kindness.
"Brother Chu, I don't have your ambitions, your ingenuity, and I don't have any plans to compete in the world right now."

Turning his head to look at the night outside the window, Wei Changtian's tone was a little emotional.

"However, who can tell what will happen in the future?"

"If one day, you and I become enemies, what will you do?"

"My son's plan, no matter what, I will definitely give it up!"

Facing this last question that seemed far away but was actually very likely to happen, Chu Xianping still did not hesitate and answered very simply.

But Wei Changtian shook his head after hearing the words.

"Brother Chu, I don't need you to let me go."

"If there is such a day, I only hope that you and I can fight with our best, and there will be no complaints in the outcome."

"."

Do your best to fight, win or lose without complaint.

When he heard Wei Changtian utter these eight words, Chu Xianping couldn't help but suddenly raised his head, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

The two just looked at each other for a moment in the flickering firelight, until an extremely solemn voice sounded.

"Yes!"

"Fight as hard as you can, win or lose without complaint!"

"."

The joys and sorrows gather for a glass of wine, and there are thousands of miles from north to south from east to west.

From the first meeting at Xuanjingsi's Shuzhou sub-rudder yamen to now deciding to go our separate ways in Fengyuan Palace, as Wei Changtian's most respected adviser, Chu Xianping has helped him for nearly three years.

In all fairness, without Chu Xianping in the past three years, Wei Changtian would never have come to this point, and it is not impossible that he would have died long ago.

Therefore, in Wei Changtian's view, Chu Xianping is not "betrayed" now, but just "parted ways" with him.

Because of this, at a certain moment, he suddenly smiled.

"Hahaha, brother Chu, see you and me in Jianghu."

"."

"Son!"

He kowtowed heavily to Wei Changtian for the last time, and Chu Xianping's voice trembled for the first time, unlike the former's relief.

After a while, I saw him raise his head, and responded extremely firmly:
"Yes!"

"Goodbye Jianghu!"

Outside Jinhua Hall, under the moonlight.

When Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping in the hall "peacefully broke up" and agreed to "see you again in Jianghu", Li Zimu also expressed all her guilt towards Tang Chen.

The gentle night wind blew over the ends of her hair, up and down suddenly covering the tears in her eyes.

It can be seen that even though Li Zimu did not deceive herself any more in the end, her feelings for Tang Chen were not simply used as in the beginning.

Biting his lip, he buried his head very low.

Li Zimu didn't dare to face the latter's eyes, so he didn't dare to raise his head.

But when that familiar voice sounded, she froze.

"It's okay, you don't need to feel guilty."

"Master once told me that the most difficult thing in this world is to be happy with each other."

"Since you are ruthless to me, then you should find your lover."

"At least for me, you let me know what the woman I like looks like."

"Miss Li, thank you."

"."

A calm word, a "thank you".

When Tang Chen unexpectedly said all this in the most candid tone, Li Zimu finally raised his head to look at him in a daze, and tears welled up in his eyes instantly.

Looking at Tang Chen smiling at her, she didn't know what to say.

The former slowly took out a handkerchief from the sleeve and unfolded it gently.

[No fate in this life, Zimu promises to live forever in the next life]

A line of small characters embroidered on the corner of the handkerchief blurred in the moonlight, and two or three spots of dark red blood were scattered on the handkerchief's face.

It was because of the handkerchief and the small print that Tang Chen decided to stay.

And after going through so much, at this moment, it seems that this line of words is no longer just a lie.

"Miss Lee"

Handing the handkerchief to the tearful Li Zimu, Tang Chen said softly:
"I'd better give you back this handkerchief."

"."

With a sudden tremor, Li Zimu clenched his handkerchief tightly and opened his mouth to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

So, she just stood there, weeping bitterly, watching Tang Chen smiled at herself, turned around, and walked step by step into the depths of the night.

Under the bright moonlight, the figure from the back became farther and farther away, and became more and more blurred.

Then at a certain moment, Li Zimu chased after him desperately, and stopped abruptly when Tang Chen was about to turn back.

"Tang, Young Master Tang, don't look back"

"Woooooo, I, I was seen by the bandits, and I, I lied to you"

"I know I'm dirty, woo woo woo, I, I don't deserve it."

"I told you that I like watching snow, because, because snow is the cleanest thing for me"

"Today, today I will give it to you"

"If there is an afterlife, I will definitely be your wife"

"One, definitely."

"."

Under the moon and water, Li Zimu stood behind Tang Chen, crying uncontrollably.

But Tang Chen turned his back to her, closed his eyes tightly, and never looked back.

Has always been shallow edge, but since the Wife.

Since then, the sound and dust have been quiet, and the green hills are like black grass and smoke.
