Chapter 877 The Goddess Has a Golden Finger
The official kneeling in front of Rong Yu had no idea how long he had been waiting. He had been talking in the room until it was pitch dark.
He didn't come out of the house, and Shi Li, who was standing at the door and watching him, didn't dare to relax.
While observing whether there were any suspicious people around, he passed the time by looking at the sky, the ground and the pillars. After dark, he was even more bored and counted the stars in the sky.
In ancient times, there was less air pollution and the air quality was good. All the constellations in the sky could be seen clearly.
While Shi Li was identifying the constellations, a strange question occurred to her.
With so many constellations, how come she can’t remember how she knew them all?
really weird!
After thinking for a long time without coming up with an answer, the official finally came out of the room. Seeing Shi Li still standing at the door, he bowed to her politely and then left.
Shi Li turned her head and glanced at the quiet study.
There was clearly a living person named Rong Yu inside, but no sound could be heard.
She was worried and hesitated for a moment, then lifted her skirt and walked in.
There were bright candles lit in the study. Rong Yu had taken off his mask and was sitting alone at the table, staring at the candlelight with his clear eyes.
He seemed unaware of Shi Li’s approach.
Shi Li hesitated a little and stopped, not knowing whether she should continue to move forward. Although the relationship between the two was somewhat ambiguous, it was still unnamed...
As soon as he thought of this, Rong Yu turned his head and looked at her intently.
Then, he extended his hand to her.
"Lili, come here."
The voice was very soft and clear, yet inexplicably bewitching.
Shi Li didn’t think about anything for a moment, she just walked over and cooperated by putting her hand on his.
They understood each other so well, as if they were a married couple who had been supporting each other for many years.
The key is that I don’t think there is anything wrong.
“The people here have never had a good life.”
Rong Yu's voice gradually became lower and he lowered his eyes to look at the flickering candlelight.
"It's not just about distributing porridge. In the palace..."
He couldn't continue. He was taught by his teacher to be loyal to the emperor and love his country, and to protect his subjects. But the teacher didn't tell him what to do if the emperor made the people suffer.
Rong Yu did not express his confusion, but Shi Li understood what he was thinking and slowly squatted down beside him.
Looking at their hands held together, I told him earnestly, "Do what you think is right. Even if the whole world abandons you, I will still stand by you."
Rong Yu was stunned for a long while, as if he couldn't believe it, and asked softly, "Really?"
"It's true."
Shi Li couldn't help but chuckle and repeated her promise word by word.
"Even if the whole world abandons you, I will still stand by you."
Rong Yu looked at Shi Li.
A word naturally popped up in my mind - soul mate.
Shi Li was the only one.
It was as if a fire suddenly started in his heart, and the surging emotions made him want to get closer to Shi Li, to be close to her, and to express his emotions in words.
However, years of etiquette made him restrain himself and dare not be rude in the slightest.
Shi Li didn't have so many concerns. Even though she was naive, she could see Rong Yu's current emotions, so she stood up and reached out to hug him.
"Rongyu, I came here just for you, and only for you."
[Someone, come! Bring me the insulin!!!]
[Wow, it feels like there’s a stone in my eye~]
[Oh no! My head itches, I feel like I’m going to fall in love! ]
In the next few days, Shi Li stayed with Rong Yu.
I saw more people and things in Qucheng.
I saw the poor people who became homeless after being deprived of their rights, and I also saw many vicious and evil people who took advantage of their power to bully others.
This kind of thing happened in Qucheng and in other places.
The Xicheng Dynasty was corrupt from the root.
Shi Li accompanied Rong Yu and watched his expression slowly change from heavy to firm.
Knowing that he had made up his mind, all she had to do was to stay by his side silently and use her golden finger quietly at the right time.
As a goddess, you should do what a goddess should do.
