Zuo Xiangning looked at the man who suddenly appeared, blinked and said, "Why are you here again?"

"I can't come?" Ling Xiao walked up to Zuo Xiangning and leaned down to look into her eyes, "Li Shaonan can come, but I can't?"

The oncoming pressure made Zuo Xiangning feel uncomfortable.

She stood up from the chair, took a step away from the man, and said, "What's wrong with you?"

The man looked at the distance between the two, "What on earth did I do to make you hate me so much?"

"I just don't want to have anything to do with you." Zuo Xiangning raised her eyes and looked at him: "I don't want to have anything to do with a man who just ran away and left me behind when something happened!"

Ling Xiao reacted and realized that the man she was talking about was him.

"When have I ever abandoned you?" Ling Xiao felt that he was more unjust than Dou E. "You are more important in my heart than myself. How could I abandon you?"

"You have abandoned me." Zuo Xiangning's big black and white eyes filled with misty water vapor, "You abandoned me once when you were discussing marriage with Li Wenji, and again when you pretended to die. Give me another chance. I have told you before that you can tell me clearly if you have anything to do, but you don’t like to be deceived, but you just kept hiding it from me again and again! Wait until everything happens Later, when you think the dust has settled, you tell me again, what do you think of me? Am I just one of your subordinates? Taking orders from you? Whatever you tell me, I have to accept it? "

"I just don't want you to worry and feel sad..."

"But if you don't tell me, am I really not worried or sad?" Zuo Xiangning's tears fell gently from the corners of her eyes, "You clearly know that I like you and care about you, but I heard that you are getting engaged to someone else. Will I not be angry or sad about the news? Or will I not be sad if you fall off a cliff and die? Or if you change our places, will you really be indifferent when these things happen to me? "

Ling Xiao was speechless.

Whether it was her engagement to someone else or her death, he could not accept it.

"What I told you is true. I have decided to forget everything in the past and start over." Zuo Xiangning sniffed lightly, "Your current status is more prominent than before, and there are many girls who want to marry you." Here you go, you don’t have to keep pestering me.”

After Zuo Xiangning finished speaking, she turned around and entered the room.

The moment the door was about to close, the man pressed his hand on the door, "I know I was wrong."

Zuo Xiangning raised her eyes and looked at him.

"I'm too self-righteous. I always take things for granted. I don't put myself in your shoes. It's my fault." The man said sincerely, "I promise that this kind of thing will never happen again in the future."

Zuo Xiangning pursed her lips tightly.

She said harsh words, but her heart was already relaxed.

This man was the first man she fell in love with. How could she forget him so easily as she said.

She was just angry and aggrieved. Now that this man had repeatedly apologized and promised her, how could she really not forgive him?

"What I said is true." Seeing that there was no expression on her face, the man continued: "Give me another chance, okay? I really like you."

Zuo Xiangning looked at him for a long time and said, "Why do you keep wearing a mask?"

"Xiang Ning, there is one more thing I haven't told you." Ling Xiao found it difficult to speak.

Zuo Xiangning's heart sank, "What else is going on?"

"Although I didn't die last time, I was seriously injured." Ling Xiao's eyes darkened, "Not only was my back injured, I..."

Zuo Xiangning's heart trembled, and a bad premonition arose in her heart. The most important thing for a man is his children. Could it be that he cannot have children?

Her eyes moved from his face to his waist. Could it be that he was incompetent?

"You...are you injured somewhere else?"

The man didn't notice anything strange about the woman, and thought she was just angry and didn't want to look at him.

"My face hurts."

"Huh?" It's not what I thought?

Zuo Xiangning even touched her ears and her neck turned red with embarrassment.

But then she quickly looked up at his mask and asked with concern: "How is your face injured?"

"The wound is a bit big and a bit scary." Ling Xiao originally wanted to wait until Dr. Liu's ointment took effect before letting Zuo Xiangning take a look, but now that Zuo Xiangning was so angry with him, he didn't dare to hide anything anymore and could only tell the truth.

"Let me see." Zuo Xiangning's fingers touched the edge of his mask, with a look of deep distress on her face.

Ling Xiao gritted his teeth and reached out to take off the mask on his face.

The left side of his face was intact, but the scar on the right side looked particularly hideous in the dim candlelight.

Zuo Xiangning was startled, her face turned pale, and she took half a step back involuntarily.

The man suddenly felt despair.

What he fears most is that she will be afraid and disgusted.

He smiled bitterly and picked up the mask to put it back on his face, but the woman's slender fingers grasped the mask tightly.

The two looked at each other.

The fright on the woman's face has quietly faded away, and her expression has completely returned to normal. Her eyes are shining brightly, and she looks into the man's eyes and asks: "You lied to me about pretending to die because your face was injured? In your eyes, I am So superficial?”

"It's just one of the reasons," Ling Xiao let out a long breath.

"What else?" Zuo Xiangning raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at him in disbelief, "How many other things are you hiding from me?"

"I am not the legitimate son of Zhongyuan Hou Mansion, I was born to my aunt." Ling Xiao showed the most unbearable side of his heart in front of the woman he loved most, "Mrs. Hou pretended to be pregnant, left the mother to keep the son, and raised me in her In my name, I am actually a concubine, and the position of heir apparent to the Zhongyuan Marquis Mansion should belong to my younger brother Ling Chen."

"So?" Zuo Xiangning asked forcefully.

"Not only am I seriously injured, but I am also a bastard with nothing," Ling Xiao said painfully, "I am not worthy of you."

"So you faked your death?" Zuo Xiangning was about to forgive him, but as soon as she heard what he said, the fire in her heart burned again, "You feel that now that you have become Marquis Jingyuan, you have Now that you have lost your identity, can you be worthy of me?"

"No!" Ling Xiao saw something wrong with her expression and said hurriedly: "When I learned from Bingyu that you didn't want to go to the north, I stayed with you after you left Beijing, and I already felt it in my heart. I made up my mind to take you away and never be separated from you again, but I hoped that you would fall in love with me wearing the mask, and I would stay with you like that in the future."

"Are you mentally ill?" Zuo Xiangning didn't know whether to be angry or laugh, "How can you always wear a mask and not take it off for twelve hours? What do you think I will like a company commander? A man who doesn’t even know what he looks like?”

"If you think I look scary now, for you, I am willing to wear a mask for twelve hours." The corners of Ling Xiao's eyes were slightly red, "I thought I could watch you from a distance and protect you. You, I have nothing else to ask for, but when I see you with other men, even if you are not doing anything, just standing together quietly, or looking at each other, I feel as if a thousand arrows are piercing your body. My heart simply cannot accept it..."

Zuo Xiangning's nose was sour and astringent. What should she do with this awkward man?
