Chapter 256: Accepting Reality (2)
Yue Yin knew that once Lan Xi knew the truth, it might affect the relationship between Lan Xi and Xiao Chuhan. But at this moment, facing Lan Xi's firm and expectant eyes, Yue Yin's heart was deeply entangled. She hesitated for a long time, as if weighing whether she should tell Lan Xi all this.
"Just tell me, you are so powerful, you must know his true identity." Lan Xi stared at Yue Yin closely, her tone revealing unquestionable firmness.
"No matter who he is, I know my current identity and I won't do anything that crosses the line. I just want to know if he is Gu Tingyan?" Lan Xi continued. Her eyes were firm and deep, as if she was mentally prepared to face everything.
Yue Yin sighed softly and slowly told the truth: "Gu Tingyan is his present life, and Ye Chen is his past life. They have the same appearance because of reincarnation."
"Then why don't you want to tell me?" Lan Xi asked in confusion. There was a hint of doubt in her eyes, as if she was confused by Yue Yin's hesitation.
Yue Yin shook her head helplessly: "The reason why I was hesitating about whether to tell you or not is because I was afraid that you would be sad if you knew the truth. Because of your current identity, it is impossible for you and Ye Chen to be together." Yue Yin replied.
"Unless Xiao Chuhan lets go and gives you freedom. But he is the emperor of Chu, how could he let go so easily?" Yue Yin shook her head helplessly, her words revealing a deep sense of helplessness and powerlessness.
"If..." Yue Yin did not continue speaking, but looked at Lan Xi. Lan Xi looked at Yue Yin and understood everything.
"I know my current identity. Thank you for telling me the truth. I didn't expect that there would be such a connection between Ye Chen and Gu Tingyan. Perhaps Gu Tingyan and I are just not destined to be together. I should accept this reality calmly." Lan Xi said lightly.
"Please send me back. I will go and convince Li'er to come back."
"Why are you in such a hurry to go back? It would be nice to stay with me for a few days. I believe that if you stay with me for a few more days, you will definitely fall in love with this place. After you leave this time, I don't know how long it will take for you to come here again. You and I get along very well, it's rare to meet a bosom friend."
"But Xiao Chuhan..." Lan Xi sighed.
"You don't have to worry. Even if he searches the entire Moon Song Country, he won't find this place. My place is hidden in the mountains, surrounded by dense forests and steep mountains. It is a paradise isolated from the world."
"Xiao Chuhan, even if he wants to find you hiding in the mountains in this vast land, it is undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack for him. What's more, even if he really finds this place, he can't enter here."
"But your daughter Yue Li must know about this place. If she tells Xiao Chuhan about this place, Xiao Chuhan will definitely ask Li Er to bring him here."
"Even if Li'er can bring Xiao Chuhan to this place, this place is a forbidden area for Li'er. It is a territory she cannot set foot in. Only I can come in here. The reason why you can come in is because you don't belong to this place in the first place. Naturally, you can come in here at will."
Lan Xi was puzzled: "Why is this place a forbidden place for Li'er? Why can't Li'er come in?"
Yue Yin looked at the bright moonlight in the night sky and slowly explained the reason: "Li'er has inherited my powerful divination power since she was born. However, this power is not easy to obtain. As long as she does not step into this forbidden area, her divination power will not awaken. Do you understand? Having the power of divination is not a good thing for us. I am worried that once her divination power awakens, it may bring her endless pain and troubles. Li'er is a kind child. If her divination power awakens, she will live a very tiring life at that time. I don't want her to use this power. I hope my daughter can live an ordinary life in this life without taking on too much responsibility and pressure."
Although Yue Yin's original intention was to protect Li'er, Lan Xi's heart was full of contradictions and struggles. She didn't know whether she should tell Yue Yin what she knew. Lan Xi understood that Yue Yin's protection and love for Li'er were extremely deep.
When Lan Xi was hesitating, Yue Yin seemed to see through Lan Xi's heart: "You want to tell me something, right?"
In fact, any secret is difficult to hide in front of Yue Yin.
"I don't know whether I should say..."
"You know you can't hide secrets from me. If I want to see into your heart, I will know what you want to say to me. But I don't want to do that. I want you to tell me voluntarily."
Lan Xi finally chose to confess, knowing that hiding the truth would only bring more trouble and misunderstanding.
