After a tragic death and rebirth, the scumbag tore Bai Yueguang apart for me

Chapter 200 I Love You Until Death

Then I realized that Huo Yan’s help to me was not unconditional, but because he had his eyes on our mine.

"The weather is so bad and the war is so intense that we need to supply the goods within a month. If we don't supply the goods, he will take over the mine. This is not a very good calculation. He is just looking for trouble for us and it's like robbery."

As soon as we finished the discussion, we heard Gu Sinian's phone call.

He looked at the screen and saw that it was Duke Yi calling. He smiled and said, "Whatever you fear will come true."

He pressed the speaker and heard Duke Yi say on the other end of the phone: "Just now, the envoy of Continental Country called and said that the ore will be delivered next week, and that our Emperor Han will personally deliver the ore to Continental Country."

Duke Yi is an old man, and his voice sounds rather haggard. This matter might be quite urgent, and his voice was noticeably trembling.

"Si Nian, although we are known as the country with the most mines, the ore for which we signed the agreement is the main mine. If it is given to Intercontinental, it means that our country will belong to Intercontinental in the future. That is our lifeline!"

"How much production do you need to provide?" I asked. The Duke of Yi seemed to have not expected me to be there for a moment and snorted coldly: "If you hadn't insisted on merging the two sides, we wouldn't be in such a passive position. Now, you have won, but our country is finished!"

Duke Yi's prejudice against me made Gu Sinian say unhappily, "Watch your words."

Duke Yi then stopped questioning me.

After hanging up the phone with Duke Yi, Gu Sinian said, "It would be too dangerous to start working in the mine in this weather."

I pursed my lips. Huo Yan, you really don't show any mercy at all. There is really no need to show mercy to someone as insignificant as me.

Are all these plans just because he wants to take advantage of this opportunity to strengthen his Intercontinental Country and annex our Han Country?

Just when he was about to say something, Gu Sinian's phone rang again.

It's Duke Yi calling again.

This time, Duke Yi's voice was happy: "Good news, good news. Just now, the envoy of Continental Country called again and said that we don't need to worry about the quantity. As long as it can be delivered to Continental Country on time, any amount is fine. When the weather is good, we can make up the amount."

Gu Sinian glanced at me and replied, "We'll arrange for someone to ship it over today."

But Duke Yi hesitated and said, "They specifically asked the Emperor Han to escort him personally. The person who will hand him over is Miss Anna."

Gu Sinian frowned.

Then he hung up the phone and asked, "What do you think about this?"

What can I think? Huo Yan just wants to humiliate me through this matter. The person taking over is still Anna. Isn't this telling me that I have to bow to Anna?

"Let's go. He wants me to bow my head. That's impossible."

I walked in front of Gu Sinian and I could hear his sigh, but he sent me back to my Han Palace and went to prepare for the ore.

I sat on a chair in the corridor. Cuicui brought me a pot of hot red date ginger tea and stuffed a hand warmer into my arms: "It's cold outside. The cold emperor will get sick if you do this."

I then realized that my fingers were frozen. The moment I raised my hand, I saw the ring on my left middle finger, which was the one Huo Yan helped me put on last time.

Maybe I wore it for so long that I forgot to take it off and forgot that it was still on my finger.

I thought the ring he gave me was unique and one-of-a-kind, but now it seems that unpaired rings are unlucky.

In the end, everyone will become insignificant.

After being stunned for a long time, he said to Cuicui:

"Thank you."

But my thank you made Cui Cui stunned for a moment. She had tied her hair into two ponytails today and smiled cutely with her head tilted, "This is what I should do."

I didn't respond, but just felt my cold ring, which was slowly warming up under the effect of the hand warmer.

Just when I was about to take it off, Cui Cui said, "This ring looks a bit old."

I don't know much about jewelry, but Cuicui is from this country, so she is more sensitive to jewelry.

"This ring is not closed, it is a diamond and pearl ring. In the 19th century, this kind of ring usually meant "you and me", often implying that the man gave his entire life to the woman and was willing to give everything for the woman. And the pearl was replaced with turquoise in a heart shape. Although it was not the most precious gem in that era, it meant "I love you."

She said this and panicked for a moment.

I just didn’t know what to say.

I never knew that this ring had this meaning. I always thought it was just a ring left by Huo Yan's mother, but I didn't know that the ring meant "I love you until death."

I don't know why my heart felt so clogged. The ring clearly expressed love, but he told me that he was an unimportant person.

He was like a stranger, so strange that I almost doubted myself.

"I'm sorry, Cold Emperor. I was just talking nonsense. It could just be an ordinary ring."

Before I could react, Cuicui was so scared that she knelt down in front of me, and then I saw Gu Sinian walking towards me from behind with a dark face.

It turned out that she was frightened not because of what she said in front of me, but because of the appearance of Gu Sinian. She was afraid.

Then I waved to her and said, "Go and prepare a cup of hot tea for Palace Master Si Nian."

Because Gu Sinian and I are married, I am the Emperor of Han and he is the Palace Master, which is the title of the superior person in Han Kingdom.

Cuicui trotted over in a hurry and saw Gu Sinian standing in front of me, looking down at me. He was not looking at me, but at the ring I hid under the hot water bag.

Then he sat across from me and said, "What do you want to eat tonight? I'll ask the kitchen to prepare it."

I deliberately stretched and said, "It's all right. I don't have a good appetite."

I learned so much today that I was in no mood to eat. I lifted the cup with my ring-free hand and took a big sip of red date ginger tea.

I choked a few times due to the spiciness, and Gu Sinian quickly handed me a tissue. I forgot to hide it for a moment and took the tissue with the hand wearing the ring, but the hand that took the tissue froze in mid-air, and both his and my eyes were fixed on the ring.

"Who gave you that ugly ring? I'll have someone send you some of your favorite minerals and customize a new one to your liking."

I naturally withdrew my hand and wiped the corner of my mouth, saying, "Don't ask me when you already know the answer. You know my preferences very well. I like poppies, peonies, milk, and meat. You know all this, but I am forcing myself to change these preferences. Just like this ring, I think I will soon change my liking for it and slowly take it off by myself."

I calmly continued to take a few sips of the red date tea, but this time I took my time and didn't choke.

Gu Sinian didn't worry about the ring anymore.

I am more sober than him now. What Huo Yan wants is his country.

Just like when I chose to come back here, I chose my country, and neither of us was wrong.

The wrong thing is that we shouldn't have met and it was destined to be a tragedy.

Maybe Huo Yan had already prepared to give up on me on the day I left. He took me back to his palace that day, deliberately let me see Anna's things, and deliberately answered Anna's call in front of me. All of this was just a punishment for him to humiliate me for choosing the country to give up on him.
