After being reborn, I was turned into a slave girl by a princess.

This is naturally Elusia's ability to influence the senses... She impersonated Li Qing in order to find out Liu Yaoru's true thoughts.

……

"You...you get out of here right now, or I'll call the servants to kick you out."

Yao Ru seemed somewhat flustered, which, in Lonnie's view, only increased the suspicion that Master Zhang had forcibly married a commoner.

And what about Elusia?

Of course, she wouldn't go out. She simply shook her head slightly and said in Li Qing's tone:

"Yaoru, stop running away. Come back to my side. Now that I have Princess Lianlan as my backer, even Master Zhang wouldn't dare to do anything to you."

……

Seeing Elusia say that, Lonnie thought Liu Yaoru would feel a little more at ease, but she didn't expect...

Yao Ru's body trembled, and she became even more nervous:

"Li Qing, you...you'd better leave here quickly."

"Yaoru...?"

"People... all change. I am now Zhang Yuanwai's wife... the past is the past, so please don't come looking for me!"

The woman clenched her fists and said this.

Chapter 68 Life Decisions

people……

Do all things change?

For some reason, hearing these words made Lonnie feel somewhat complicated and melancholy.

If...

Having disappeared for a long time, will Elusia also fall in love with someone else?

Ok……

That's probably possible, isn't it? After all, from the very beginning, what Elcia liked was a true hero.

How could a weird hero like himself, who can't even take care of himself, possibly give Elusia a sense of security?

And just as Lonnies decided, if everything was inevitable, if Elusia really grew up as an ordinary princess and married a prince from a neighboring country, then she could accept it.

after all……

If that's really the future, then I and Elcia would never have met in the first place, right?

……

However, Lonnies hadn't expected this...

Suddenly, Elusia turned around and glared at herself fiercely.

That expression seemed to say: You silly goose, don't think about those random things, just focus on healing your injury!

"Ooh!"

Now, Lonnie didn't dare to think any further, and what about Elusia? It seemed that Lonnie's outburst had stirred up some emotions within her as well.

When facing Yao Ru, his tone became somewhat out of control.

……

"Yaoru, is that really what you think? When we got together, didn't you say we would be together?"

"That's true, but..."

The woman clenched her fist. Although her fist trembled slightly, she still spoke her innermost thoughts: "But, Li Qing, do you know? After losing you, I was very lost and sad. I even thought about throwing myself into the ocean and dying with you."

"!"

"But then, Master Zhang found me. She talked to me about many things and helped me get out of my painful situation."

"..."

"She said that someone like me shouldn't take my own life. After all, life is long, and no one is anyone else's appendage. A love story filled with vows of eternal devotion may be beautiful, but ultimately, everyone has their own life to live. So, I'm sorry, Li Qing, I'm so sorry..."

……

……

After saying that, Liu Yaoru collapsed to her knees, as if she had used up all her strength.

Perhaps she knew she was an unfaithful wife? Because back then, she truly loved Li Qing and longed to be with him through thick and thin.

But is reality so cruel?

Just like many long-distance couples, they eventually break up... not to mention that Li Qing eventually died.

So when Lonnie gazed at Yao Ru's figure, she didn't feel that she was particularly disgusted; she just thought it was human nature.

but……

Elusia shook her head and said:

"Then, if that's the case... why are you still avoiding me?"

"what?"

"If you've already decided to pursue a new life, then be honest with me! Even if it's inconvenient to meet with Master Zhang directly, you could have had a young servant write me a letter. Why have you never replied?"

"!"

Liu Yaoru was completely stunned.

As for Elusia, she stepped forward and replaced her own figure with Liu Yaoru's appearance.

Then, Elusia, speaking in Liu Yaoru's voice, slowly said:

"So, you still can't let go of everything, right? You still love Li Qing, right? That's why you still have expectations that Li Qing can make the decision to cut everything off and win you back."

"I……"

"You don't know how to choose between Master Zhang and Li Qing, and you don't even know what you really think, so you chose to run away from everything, because that way you don't have to make any decisions."

"!"

"However, the future of all of this will be your choice, and you cannot escape it. You must take responsibility for your life."

"I……"

"Yes, whatever decision you make, it will be the answer to your life. So, make your decision."

……

……

Another burst of black light swept by, and Liu Yaoru collapsed to the ground, slowly falling asleep.

This is the convenience of Elusia's ability... As for Liu Yaoru, after she wakes up, she will treat everything she just experienced as a dream.

In this way, Elusia wasn't really impersonating Li Qing and saying things she shouldn't have.

This approach is already the best possible outcome.

Regardless, Liu Yaoru should be able to come up with her own solution after this, right?

……

However, while Lonnies felt admiration for Elusia, she also felt a sense of worry.

Sure enough, my wife has been through a lot too.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have uttered such philosophical words, so...

……

"Waaah (Elcia, are you alright?)"

"Ha, of course nothing's wrong. Phew, with you, my little idiot, here with me, what could possibly happen?"

"what?"

"Hmph, like I said before, if I were alone, I might do something strange, right? But now, I've already come to terms with everything. I have nothing to regret, and nothing to hesitate about."

Elusia closed her eyes slightly and picked up Lonnies completely.

This way of holding a little girl made Lonnie blush and involuntarily struggle.

But Elusia's next words completely stunned Lonnie again.

……

"And, Lonnie! Although it's possible that I've forgotten about your future, I probably still won't marry anyone else, whether it's a boy or a girl."

"what?"

"Because, I've lived for over a hundred years, but you're the first person I've ever had who's so perfect for me as a partner, you little idiot! No matter how much I tease you, you never get angry, and no matter how complicated my feelings are, you'll just keep acting cute..."

"Elusia..."

At that moment, Lonnie was stunned. Because Elusia was giving her a faint smile.

With her large eyes and familiar face, her smile, though gentle, seemed to contain the hopes of a young girl, making her appear so beautiful.

So……

"Hmph, are you relieved now? Silly little fox, I will never leave you."

"what……"

"After all, putting everything else aside, the feel of these is really nice to touch! The cheeks are so smooth, and they look so cute in white stockings!"

"Huh?"

Lonnie was startled, because Elusia suddenly revealed an evil smile again:

"Your expression is really funny. Well then, after work, how about I take you to the children's playground? Consider it a reward for your little pet's loyalty and good behavior."

"Waaah! (Who's the pet? And who wants to go to the playground?)"
