Taozhaide half-opened his mouth and couldn't answer.

Immortal—

Once upon a time, this word symbolized the expectations of ordinary mortals, and prayed that their own questions could be answered in this word.

But I don’t know when this word has become unable to answer any questions and cannot relieve any pain...

Even a "immortal" like Taozhaide can only lower his head silently now and cannot answer such a "simple" question.

Seeing Tao Zhaide not speaking, Li Lan’s bitter smile became even stronger.

He stopped the strings, reached out his hand, and gently rubbed Xiao Qiuqian's head beside him. The bitter smile at the corner of his mouth finally relaxed a little.

Afterwards, he continued to stroke the strings, exhaled, and continued to hook his fingers...

"Wedding...his wedding. He looks really handsome in auspicious clothes...so good...he can marry the lady of the Xue family, but even after getting married, Miss Xue, Xue family, Liu family, and many people will continue to look at him with strange eyes..."

"Even if I successfully control him so that he can get married smoothly... what's next? As long as I'm still alive, the rumors will not stop... As long as I don't make more statements, this wedding to cover up the ugly will still not have the effect it should have... So... so......"

At this point, Li Lan stopped talking, but kept plucking the strings in front of her.

But the sound of the piano at this moment was messy, just like the white lantern that swayed around by the wind, and there was no sound of music anymore.

"So, you control Xue Qiangwei, which has nothing to do with you, and staged such a bitter scene with you, just to make the people of the Xue and Liu family think that the person you Li Lan really like is a woman, not Liu Zijing, and to eliminate this so-called "misunderstanding". Then, control Liu Zijing to kill you directly, and eliminate other people's "misunderstanding" about him."

The sound of the piano slowly...

Tears have already dripped on the strings, accompanied by a slight sound, and tears have broken.

"You have no desire for life. I hope to use your life to make up for the debt that has implicated Mr. Liu. After Liu Zijing was stopped by his father, you turned to another way to prove the 'innocence' between Mr. Liu and you. There is no love, only deep hatred. You just hope to bear all the pain by yourself, and then when you can't bear it anymore, you can end this life and put an end to this matter..."

The sound of the piano stopped.

The thin fingers pressed on the strings.

The long, dispersed hair of the zither, swayed and scattered with the wind tonight.

He lowered his head, just sat like that, sitting...and then...

"If...there is still a next life..."

"Hope...I can turn into a zither bird...just accompany you...play the zither for you...ever...ever...ever...ever...ever..."

...

……………………

The voice was silent.

The melodious sound of the piano slowly blew away with the wind.

Xiao Jiaoxuan looked at it with her head tilted. After waiting for a while, she stood up and pushed the man.

"Wu...mu...?wu...mumu...mumu!"

Little girl, hurry.

Afterwards, Tao Zhaide came over, gently stroked her head, and smiled faintly.

"Woooooooooooooooooooo..."

"He is dead. But he will never be sad anymore. Let's let him take him here, okay?"

Xiao Qiugong was bulging his cheeks. After Tao Zhaide touched his head, she finally cried out and threw herself into Tao Zhaide's arms and grabbed the corner of his clothes.

Although Bai Hong behind her couldn't understand human feelings very much, she didn't pounce on her and bit her directly when facing such a corpse. It should be considered her respect alone.

———————————————————————

It's dark.

From afar, watching the people in the ancestral hall pushing the small cart slowly leaving. Li Lan, who was lying on the small cart, smiled at the corner of her mouth. What did he think of at the last moment of his life?

Taozhaide held Xiao Oiao, who was already tired of crying in his arms, and waited until the small cart completely left and the night lights were already on around him. He took a deep breath, walked towards the gate of Liu Mansion, and knocked gently.

It is not difficult to enter the door. After all, this tragedy was not caused by Tao Zhaide, and he also saved Xue Qiangwei, who was "controlled by Liu Zijing".

The entire Liu Mansion was covered with a miserable color, with white and black everywhere, with depression.

At this moment, it was already dinner time.

The people who came to pay tribute were arranged to go to the restaurant to eat tofu rice. Taozhaide took some steamed buns, porridge, and meat slices for himself. After Bai Hong, he looked at the people in the cafeteria. After a little inquiring, he walked straight to the lobby with the steamed buns in his mouth.

The empty lobby is also covered with black and white.

The original excitement has now turned into dead silence. After a brief glance at Taozhaide immediately saw the person he had been looking for, and walked over directly.

"Mrs. Young lady, just eat a little... If you don't eat, both masters and ladies will be worried..."

Xue Qiangwei, dressed in widow's clothes, knelt beside the mourning hall.

Her eyes were dull and she stared at the coffin blankly, as if she was already demented.

On both sides, the two maids kept persuading him. But it seemed that there was no use at all, and the newlywed young woman who lost her husband could not respond at all.

After seeing Tao Zhaide coming in, the two maids nodded quickly. Tao Zhaide also nodded, took the incense beside him, lit the fire, and respectfully went up. Then, he lowered his head and looked at Liu Zijing lying in the coffin.

The blood has been cleaned up.

The face of Mr. Liu relies on makeup and is once again filled with rosyness, as if it was a child.

He just fell asleep peacefully...

Really, in this way, he was really just a older boy, a docile child with a gentle face and a little childish eyebrows.

After celebrating the incense, Taozhaide walked to Xue Qiangwei. Xue Qiangwei did not move, and the maid next to her quickly whispered: "Young lady... you should return the gift..."

Xue Qiangwei finally turned around slowly. After seeing that it was Taozhaide, she nodded very mechanically, as a gift.
