Chapter 2432 Why Now?
Qi Xue frowned and turned to look at Qi Kan Tian,
She was not surprised he noticed.
The two of them have been staying by each other's side and talked in private with each other, there might be some clues from her behavior. But....
"Why now?"
"Because it's time for me to move on too," Qi Kan Tian said slowly, a faint smile on the corner of his lips.
To be honest, Qi Kan Tian never had any interest on the throne. The main reason why he stayed to sit on that throne was because it was his brother's dream and also ambition when he was young.
Qi Kan Tian wanted to continue sitting as the emperor and protected his father and brother's legacy.
But after so many years, Qi Kan Tian was tired.
He knew very well that he was living the life that his brother and father wanted and longed. He was also fulfilling their dreams and allowed Qi Xi Kingdom to thrive and got better under his reign.
However, none of these were what he truly want.
Becoming the Emperor?
Qi Kan Tian never have any interest to sit on that throne if it was not because of his brother's death making him the first in line to inherit the throne.
He could have given it up.
His cousins or nephews would be very happy to sit on the throne and lead Qi Xi Kingdom.
But in that state of disrepairs, Qi Kan Tian knew that Qi Xi Kingdom needed someone who could rebuild the kingdom. Because the cries of sadness and the destruction had caused so much pain and misery for Qi Xi Kingdom.
This was caused by their loss in the war.
And Qi Kan Tian decided to hold it all on his shoulder.
He knew that Qi Xue was sad and stayed still because of his brother. Through her occasional gaze, he found her seemed to be looking at someone behind him, which Qi Kan Tian could guess.
But he let her.
Because he had his own selfishness.
What if...?
"I don't." Qi Kan Tian shook his head. "I only tell you what you're not allowed to do, which is following me!
He couldn't decide what Qi Xue did, but he could tell her what she was not allowed to do and the consequences if she tried to do so.
Qi Xue frowned.
She looked at Qi Kan Tian, wanting to ask what had changed but found Qi Kan Tian's calm gaze.
It was very calm and indifferent.
While it was not so cold that he treated her as enemies or stranger, but it was clear that Qi Kan Tian had started to treat her as nothing more than an ordinary senior sister of his. There was no longer any other thoughts.
Qi Xue understood.
She lowered her gaze.
The two of them never talked about this matter openly in the past because it was both awkward and not suitable. Moreover, it was not right for Qi Kan Xiang in their minds.
In the end, time passed so quickly. They were no longer that young.
It was time for them to move on.
Qi Xue nodded. "I understand."
After that, Qi Xue stood up and walked in the direction of the hut.
Her moves had told Qi Kan Tian the answer he needed to know.
Qi Kan Tian smiled.
How casy is it to move on?
It's not easy.
But he didn't want to waste the rest of his life being confined in this matter. So even if this might not be the best answer... it was already very good for him.
Qi Kan Tian took a deep breath.
He had thought about this over and over in the past few days and now, he was no longer so bothered.
He slowly stood up and walked in the direction of the hut too.
