Gong Jue woke up from the pain, and before he could even open his eyes, he instinctively tried to push away the heavy object on his body. After pushing for a long time, he finally made a little movement, and just as he was about to continue, he suddenly remembered something.
He opened his eyes. It was still pitch black, but he immediately realized it when he touched the soft body.
He caught Qian Li, so as to not let Qian Li have a close contact with the land again.
With great difficulty, he took out the Night Pearl from his bosom, and after lighting it up, he finally managed to clearly see what was in front of him.
Taking advantage of the moment when he didn't have the strength to get up and rest, he scanned his surroundings.
He discovered that this was originally a deactivated dried up well. However, calling it a well wasn't that extraordinary because he had never seen such a dried up well since he was young …
Such a deep well …
There was no time to think, of course. Perhaps the most important reason was that he knew that even if he thought about it, it would be of no use, so he adjusted his breathing and sat up.
"Qian Li?"
He only suffered a few superficial wounds, but he was worried about what would happen to Qian Li.
She had already been severely injured.
He did not dare to mess with Qian Li's body, and only took a brief look. The wound was very deep, but at least the bleeding had stopped.
He helped Qian Li to sit down. The bottom of the well was very cold, but other than the modern fire piston that didn't seem to be of any use to him, there didn't seem to be anything else to keep him warm.
Unfortunately, he could only thank the fact that it was still autumn and not very cold. Otherwise, he would have suspected that the two of them would have been frozen to death here.
Gong Jue loved lively activities the most. In his memories, other than sleeping when he could be so quiet, the rest of the time was lively and lively. Perhaps because of the fact that Mother Consort died early, he had always felt that it would be very painful if there was no one by his side to accompany him.
Thus, after sitting for just a short while, he felt extremely bored.
Qian Li's body was very cold, and had been shivering ever since then. Helpless, he could only sit next to her, as if that would help her warm up a little.
Her lips had already turned completely white. The rosy red from the first time they met was no longer visible. What replaced it were lips covered in white skin.
There is no more dry cracking.
He extended his hand and helped wipe away the blood on the corner of Qian Li's mouth. From the looks of it, Qian Li had most likely injured her internal organs.
Qian Li...
"I have never wished for you to live, to live."
"I long for someone to quickly discover us, even if … The enemy is good too. "
"All along, because I had the status of a prince, I could put on airs all the time. In my entire life, besides the fact that Mother Consort's death had a slight impact on me, it seemed as if nothing that was more serious had happened. It wasn't very good, and I had thought that I hadn't encountered any dangers before. After all, I want money, power and in times of peace, I even have Lightness Exercise s that many people fear to lose. I always thought my life could go sideways like a crab. "
Saying this. Gong Jue actually laughed at himself, but this did not interrupt him. He said, "But today, I realized that when the real thing happened, I actually couldn't do anything at all. Seeing that you were in such pain, that I didn't know how to cure you, that I couldn't save you, and that you had placed all your hopes on me, while I personally brought you to this hell. Qian Li. You blame me? "
"I'm feeling really uncomfortable right now, but I also know very well that my discomfort can't change anything. I also know that I should calm down a bit at this moment and use my brain to think of how to get out, but …" "My head is about to explode, but I still don't have a clue …"
"If you don't have any leads, then rest well. If you don't have physical strength, how are you going to survive?"
In the spacious bottom of the well, Qian Li's voice still sounded reverberating. Perhaps she did not manage to react and was still able to wake up, causing Gong Jue to truly be shocked.
He suddenly stood up and looked around anxiously, "Who, who said that?"
Qian Li glanced at them, and then weakly leaned behind him.
It seemed that they did not sleep for long, "There's only the two of us in this place, who else could it be other than me?"
Hearing that, Gong Jue then turned around, "Qian Li, is that you?"
He carefully squatted down, and when she saw that Qian Li had truly opened his eyes, she was overjoyed.
It didn't seem that cold anymore, and it didn't seem that afraid anymore.
Truly, for the first time, I felt that it was such a blissful thing to have someone by my side to talk to.
"Qian Li, you're awake? "You didn't react to me calling out to you many times just now. You scared me to death."
After saying that, he actually hugged Qian Li.
Qian Li was startled by the sudden action, and then smiled.
Gong Jue, maybe he had seen wrongly before.
The real him was as innocent as a child, and not at all as hateful as he had imagined.
That's right. In a sense, this person was his own brother.
Younger brother, isn't he a child?
But because of that relationship, although Qian Li wasn't willing to admit it, she didn't mind having an extra younger brother.
"You … Did you do anything to me while I was asleep? " Qian Li knew that she definitely did not.
She just did not expect Gong Jue to suddenly blush at this moment.
Yes, her face was red. Even under the light of the Night Pearls, it was still very thoroughly red.
Qian Li frowned, "Could it be that you really do treat me like this …"
It wasn't strange that she had such a reaction. After all, this person's reputation had always been there.
Qian Li struggled to take a look at herself. Besides a few wrinkles, there were no signs of him being in a passive state.
After her clothes were brought back by the housekeeper, she simply planned them out for herself. Although she knew that no one would do anything to her, in case she did something wrong with them, she was very familiar with them.
He looked at the boy in front of him. After hearing what he said, he waved his hand nervously, as if he was a child caught red-handed in the act.
"I... No. "Ah, no, there is."
His blushing face made Qian Li feel that it was a little strange. After resting for a while, she had also gained some strength.
Thus, they started to talk a little bit more …
"Yes, or no?"
"Nope." Gong Jue waved his hand, "I only took a glance at your wound, I swear, other than that, there's nothing else."
After saying this, he even muttered to himself, "Of course, if you feel that you are at a disadvantage, and if we can still get out, I will take responsibility for you."
His reaction made Qian Li even more confused. She said, "It's fine, I don't need you to take responsibility."
Gong Jue was even more dissatisfied, thinking that Qian Li was holding on. After all, in his heart, even though they had not met for a long time, he had already determined that Qian Li was an arrogant and aloof woman who had suffered a lot. She was so heavily injured that she could still not make a sound.
"I know that some things are very important to you girls, but I'm not the kind of person who doesn't take responsibility for things that you do. Don't worry, I'll definitely be responsible for you."
His serious tone made people unable to hold back his laughter. Qian Li could not help but ask back, "If you are responsible after just a look, wouldn't your residence already have a group of concubines?"
"Unexpectedly, Gong Jue opened his eyes wide because of this. Who did you hear that? My Duke Palace doesn't have a single woman other than the palace maids. "
"Hmm?" Qian Li was even more confused, "Then aren't you just talking nonsense if you are in charge of it?"
"How can a man joke when he can't keep up with his responsibilities?"
Qian Li became even more confused, "Since you're so pure in heart, then what kind of romantic affairs did you have …"
This time, Qian Li was interrupted before she could finish speaking. He said, "I like to look at beauties, right? I can't really control my mouth, but I … "I …"
Qian Li thoughtfully nodded her head. In other words, this Third Prince was just a boy who looked loose on the surface, but was actually a pure boy deep inside his bones. All the rumors he had were the same as Gong Ming previously, could it be that he was deliberately giving people the illusion that he was protecting them?
