Unaware that My Legitimate Sister is My Husband - Chapter 120
Chapter 120
Xi Xian gave a small “ah” and, crooked her head and started to laugh, as if she found it interesting, “What about His Majesty? Don’t you care about him?”
Her legitimate sister looked at her seriously and said, “He plays around a lot, he won’t care about that.”
Really? Xi Xian did not deny this point.
If he wanted to he could have as much fun as he wanted to, he just didn’t usually do things like that, and actually the emperor wasn’t this kind of man in her eyes.
It was just that she often spat on him like that, saying he was dirty, not wanting the man to touch her.
There was no such feeling in the bottom of her heart.
The resistance in Xi Xian’s eyes was like solid ice, without any possibility of melting.
Her legitimate sister caught her hand in the air, inclined her head and smiled softly, the peonies in her hair looked like they were blooming even more colorfully: “Why?You don’t love big sister anymore?”
Her legitimate sister seemed a bit aggrieved, and just seductively looked at her with her eyes half narrowed.
Xi Xian stiffly withdrew her own hand and shook her head, “Forget it, you go be the empress, and I won’t see you again in the future.”
That would be too ridiculous.
If his empress and his consort really had something going on between them, how would the emperor have any face left to see people?
Not to mention that the emperor was also someone she had once loved, but this man would not allow his dignity to be violated, Xi Xian knew all too well, in the end her legitimate sister was also a woman, and she was not his match at all in this regard.
Moreover, she did not want to see Lu Zongheng.
Her legitimate sister smiled with understanding.
Xi Xian had a temperament who could go crazy for love, no matter if it was in her past life or in this life, so if she still refused, maybe it meant that her “big sister” was not that important in the end, she would not be so obsessed as to go against reason, and have the same crazy behavior that she had in her past life.
Xianbao had never grown up.
But even for a child, choosing which candy was the best was very easy; she might touch her lips and tilt her head, but she already had an answer in her heart.
Her legitimate sister smiled slightly and let go of her, as she stood in the light and shadow, it seemed like she was smiling but also like she wasn’t, “Then, let’s say goodbye, I will no longer accompany a child in her stubborn game.”
Xi Xian’s tears flowed down immediately, and the shallow dimples on her cheeks were revealed.
She thought, in her last life, if her legitimate sister had not died, perhaps her suffering would have ended.
She would have been the most ordinary girl, giving birth to children and raising them, taking care of her husband’s family for half a lifetime, while her legitimate sister would have been the supreme woman living inside the vermilion walls of the palace, and she would be proud of that all her life, she would have a status in her husband’s family, and would just be a younger sister in front of her legitimate sister.
In this life, she had reversed everything.
But she was so unhappy, because the gods were teasing her once again, like she could never get what she wanted.
Her legitimate sister’s back figure was far away, with a straight and thin back, enveloped in a golden veil of light, like the pure and holy moonlight in her heart, unreachable.
Xi Xian thought, perhaps this was the last time she would ever see her legitimate sister in this life.
She didn’t know why she thought so.

The night was as cool as water, Xi Xian leaned on the couch, gazing slowly at the night sky, feeling free from worry in her heart like she never had felt before, and also sad and desolate like after a great calamity, something she had never felt before.
What was love?
Xi Xian had lived two lifetimes, and she really did not really understand, why she was always falling in love with people who she should not. Perhaps this was her destiny.
But if one wanted to disperse the clouds and see someone clearly, it couldn’t be easier.
Her legitimate sister was most definitely interested in her, but she was so reasonable that she would never want to really have any relationship with her “little sister”.
Xi Xian thought it was how it supposed to be, her legitimate sister was this kind of person, the fact that she could do this for her, was already very good.
Compared to the power she could get, the phoenix crown she could have, Xi Xian’s existence was simply worthless.
She even thought that later in the future, perhaps no one would know that Her Highness, the empress, once had a young girl in her heart, that she had protected that young girl like a powerful man, not letting her suffer, and wanting to let her live a life free of worry.
But at that time, her legitimate sister would already have her own crown prince, would have the emperor’s respect, although she and Lu Zongheng might not be in love, but they would be a couple evenly matched.
Her legitimate sister and Lu Zongheng might be the same kind of person, focusing on power and honor, with rigorous demands regarding love, but able to detach themselves and withdraw at any time.
