Chapter 315: Finally Meeting Shen Li
King Luo Lingchen, despite the tiring journey, hurried from Lichen and has now arrived in this sea area.
He was dressed in simple casual clothes, and his expression showed a sense of solemnity and concern.
This place is in Xiqi. Although the four countries have signed an alliance, as the king of a country, if he sneaks into the territory of another country like this and is discovered, it will be difficult to explain clearly.
This time he came from afar just to take a look at Shen Li who was still in a coma.
If the extremely precious "Dream-Returning Soul Flower" still cannot wake Shen Li up, he plans to let the skilled imperial physician who accompanied him give her a careful diagnosis and treatment. Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, he will never give up easily.
The sea breeze blew gently as Luo Lingchen stood on the shore, his heart filled with concern and worry for Shen Li. He had no idea that on the other side of the sea, Shen Li, who had been on his mind for years and should have been unconscious, had not only regained consciousness, but was also full of energy, accompanying Xiqi Prince Nangong Qi and Dongsheng Prince Su Ran.
Shen Li's laughter drifted in the wind, her bright eyes sparkling with a brilliance never before, without a trace of her former frailty.
Nangong Qi and Su Ran also had smiles on their faces. The figures of the three of them, illuminated by the sunlight, formed a unique picture, as if fate had played a huge joke on Ling Luochen, making his deep affection and concern seem so lonely and abrupt at this moment.
Shen Li was full of helplessness and had no idea why she was traveling with Nangong Qi and Su Ran.
After entertaining everyone with a meal, the county magistrate's subordinates said goodbye and returned to the government office.
Su Ran looked at Nangong Qi clinging to Shen Li tightly, and felt worried, so she followed closely behind.
Nangong Qi glanced at Su Ran coldly, thinking of the past when Su Ran always pretended to be sick in the Shen family, a nameless anger welled up in his heart. He thought to himself, so many years have passed, and this person is still like a dog-skin plaster that can't be thrown away, stubbornly staying in the Shen family and refusing to leave. It's really hateful.
Shen Li was caught between the two of them and felt a headache. She didn't know when these two enemies would stop and let her have a moment of peace.
Shen Li secretly felt lucky that she had hidden the little koi in the carriage without anyone noticing.
She thought silently in her heart that as long as she waited for the right opportunity, she would be able to make Xuanfeng Sanren's stunning appearance.
By then, everything will develop as she carefully planned, and perhaps she will be able to successfully get rid of the current chaotic situation.
The corners of her mouth rose slightly, and a barely perceptible cunning flashed in her eyes, as if she had seen the surprised expressions of everyone when the plan succeeded, and this little "conspiracy" was about to quietly begin in this seemingly calm atmosphere.
Nangong Qi stared at Su Ran with his eyes wide open, and shouted, "You hypocritical hypocrite, stop following me and A-Li around like a tail you can't shake off!"
Su Ran, however, seemed oblivious to Nangong Qi's anger. He maintained his elegant and graceful demeanor, a faint smile on his lips as he said leisurely, "Mr. Qi, such remarks are truly heartless. After all, we used to be quite good friends."
Upon hearing this, Nangong Qi stamped his feet in anger and yelled at the top of his lungs, "Who calls you your friend? You're a completely despicable person. For all these years, you've been pestering A-Li!"
Su Ran chuckled slightly and replied softly, "It wasn't me who drove you away back then."
However, beneath his seemingly calm exterior, his heart was in turmoil.
Thinking back on all these years, I have been struggling in the abyss of pain where I could lose Shen Li at any time. Life has been so difficult.
His father had asked him seriously about Beichen many times, but he could only rack his brains and find ways to evade the question. Only he knew the bitter taste of that.
Shen Li looked at the two people arguing in front of her with great interest and found it very funny.
When they met, they were like two roosters fighting with red eyes, fighting back and forth and neither of them gave in. They looked just like two children who had not grown up yet.
She couldn't help laughing and said, "Stop arguing, both of you. I've already accompanied you to see the sea impartially. Isn't that enough?"
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand, pointing to the boundless sea, and continued, "Look, the sea is so vast and wide, with sparkling waves. Don't you feel that your heart and mind will also be broadened, and all your worries will be thrown away?"
But she was secretly muttering in her heart: I have overcome my fear of the sea and come here to risk my life for a gentleman, so you two should just be quiet for a while.
The sea breeze blew gently, blowing Shen Li's hair, and her laughter floated in the air.
Ling Luochen, standing in the distance, felt his heart tighten. His sharp eyes caught sight of the three figures from afar, and a wave of indescribable emotions welled up in his heart.
In a hurry, he reached out and took the telescope from the guard, quickly adjusted the focus, and looked in the direction of those people.
When his eyes fell on the girl who was smiling sweetly and gazing into the distance, his breathing stopped instantly.
Although they hadn't seen each other for several years, Shen Li's face and her unique temperament had already been deeply imprinted in his heart. At that moment, time seemed to freeze, and only that familiar yet unfamiliar figure remained in his eyes.
After a moment, he finally came to his senses, and an idea exploded in his mind - Shen Li woke up!
Joy and excitement surged in his heart like a tide, his hands trembled slightly, and he could hardly suppress the waves in his heart.
However, he was the king of a country after all, and he quickly calmed down and turned his gaze to the two people beside Shen Li again.
His eyes became sharp and deep as he looked at the two men carefully.
One of them was wearing bright yellow clothes, the color and style were clearly exclusive to the Xiqi royal family. Ling Luochen couldn't help but feel a little alert.
The other one looked quite familiar. After a little thought, he remembered the information he had investigated before. This person seemed to be the teacher of Shen's Academy. Why were these two people with Shen Li?
What kind of relationship existed between them? Countless questions swirled in Luo Lingchen's mind, turning his originally excited mood into a heavy one.
Luo Lingchen frowned slightly, lowered his voice, and solemnly instructed the guards around him, "Under the current circumstances, showing up rashly will only cause trouble and inconvenience. Keep a close eye on the people at Fuxi County Lord's Mansion. Once it gets dark, follow them and see where they'll end up. Then, rush to the town ahead of time and make preparations. Be extremely cautious and don't reveal our whereabouts, or the consequences will be disastrous."
The guard received the order, clasped his fists respectfully and replied "Yes", then turned around quietly and blended into the surrounding environment, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Luo Lingchen's gaze once again turned to Shen Li, who was chatting and laughing with others in the distance. His eyes were full of complex emotions, including surprise at having lost something and also doubts about the people beside her.
He looked at her deeply for the last time, as if he wanted to engrave her appearance at the moment firmly in his heart, and then he turned around slowly, his clothes moving in the wind, and left this place quietly with a heart full of concerns and many thoughts, leaving only the still surging sea, as if telling the unnoticed waves just now.
