Free Web NovelChapter 403: Chapter 133: He Is the True Huo Lanyue!
Upon learning that Huo Canghai had already uncovered the full truth, Andariel, who had held herself upright and dignified all her life, finally let go of her hard armor, throwing herself into Huo Canghai’s arms and crying out loud.
"Huo Canghai, I failed to protect our child, I am guilty! He was our only child, he trusted me so much, loved me, yet I let a wolf into our house, causing his death."
"Huo Canghai, my sin is unforgivable!"
Listening to Andariel’s confession, Huo Canghai felt unbearably distressed.
He cradled Andariel’s head, sighing, "Lili, you have lost a child, and it’s hard for you to conceive. You went through so much hardship to conceive Lan Yue."
"Allowing Alexden Island was indeed your mistake. But Lili, you are the person in this world who loves Lan Yue the most; without Lan Yue, you suffer more than I do."
"How could I possibly blame you?"
At this point, even Huo Canghai shed tears. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
Gazing at Andariel, who was still as beautiful and graceful, Huo Canghai bowed his proud head to fate, "I’m old, my body gets worse by the day, I won’t be able to stay with you for much longer. Lili, let go of yourself, will you?"
"Don’t let me die in unrest."
Hearing this, Andariel felt even more sorrowful, tightly clutching Huo Canghai’s short robe, she murmured sadly, "Huo Canghai, if only you were thirty years younger, or if I had been born thirty years earlier, how great it would be."
When you were born, I was not; when I was born, you were already old.
When Andariel was in university, she had studied Xia Country’s culture. Upon coming across this phrase once, she thought those poets were just whining, but now, turned into a person in a poem, she understood the helplessness in it.
At the age of 20, when she first met Huo Canghai at a royal event, Andariel only saw him as a remarkable elder.
They all said, Huo Canghai was so decisive and ruthless, and indifferent. But when he saw her approaching, he immediately put out his cigarette, gave her a gentle and indifferent smile, and called her, "Lili."
As far as she remembers, Huo Canghai never said he liked her.
But despite his busy schedule, rarely interacting with the Y Country Royal Family, he frequently appeared at royal events. Every time they met, he presented his elegant and mature side and calmly restrainedly called her, "Lili."
Andariel sensed Huo Canghai’s affection for her.
She did not feel disgusted or immoral, just surprised.
Huo Wen’an and Xu Xingguang never saw Huo Canghai thirty years ago, so they felt it’s the case of an old man preying on the young.
In fact, even though Huo Canghai was sixty at that time, he looked at most forty or fifty. His demeanor was elegant, his every move measured and appropriate, he loved with courtesy and restraint, he was a man of true power yet gentlemanly and self-restrained.
In the face of his charisma, age was not a barrier.
Andariel also found out that Huo Canghai had a marriage of convenience, but even though there was no love, he remained loyal and respectful to his late wife.
And his wife had been deceased for five years, yet there was no other woman by his side.
The pleasures of romance seemed non-existent to him.
In Huo Canghai’s position, managing this level made Andariel hold him in higher esteem.
Originally, Andariel truly believed that Huo Canghai desired nothing.
But as their interactions increased, Andariel realized that Huo Canghai did indeed have desires, for when he called her Lili, his gaze would become a little deeper.
When he saw her conversing enthusiastically with young men, his throat would swallow more often, the frequency of smoking decreased, but biting on the cigarette grew more. fгeewebnovёl.com
The cigarette became a tool to ease his anxious jealousy.
And she became his sole desire.
Though Andariel was captivated by Huo Canghai’s personal charm, her heart was already set on someone else. Regarding Huo Canghai’s feelings, Andariel always pretended not to know, politely and properly calling him Uncle Huo every time they met.
However, on the chaotic battlefield, when she was on the brink of death, seeing Huo Canghai break into the chaotic battlefield alone, eyes red, walking steadfastly towards her, she heard the sound of her heart stirring.
Everyone said she was Huo Canghai’s imprisoned canary.
But she would rather die than be a captive Princess.
The only reason she would willingly become Huo Canghai’s canary is that she loves him.
"Huo Canghai." Andariel said, "I will leave with you, I will accompany you."
