Shui Ruo Han looked at Xu Bi Xuan with a puzzled expression. She didn't see the fear that a normal woman should have in a situation like this. Instead, she saw a bloodthirsty ray of light flash past her eyes!
"Mm …" You don't need to know! In short... "We will send you back to the Great Shu Imperial Palace, whether you are willing or not …" Facing Xu Bixuan's unfathomable gaze, the eloquent Shui Ruo Han was momentarily at a loss for words. However, a question mark suddenly appeared in his heart. There were not many women that could pique his interest, the woman in front of him had already successfully attracted his attention!
"I am willing... Furthermore, he was very willing … "Hehe …" Xu Bixuan's cherry lips suddenly bloomed into a faint smile. The smile on her lips became deeper and deeper. As she turned around, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes as she rushed towards the tent!
Shui Ruo stood where she was, watching Xu Bixuan's back as she left. Her eyebrows were scrunched up, but she soon relaxed, a hint of playfulness on her face. He liked this kind of woman!
The cold wind assaulted the entire valley like sharp blades. The tent swayed in the wind, as if it would be carried away at any time. Shui Ruo Han shook her clothes and walked into the tent.
"Why didn't you go up and have a chat? That girl seems to be interested in you!" Shui Ruo Han frowned, waving her long hair that had been messed up by the wind!
"I went to that small teahouse …" His faint voice was mixed with an endless sense of loss. Murong Che habitually stroked the jade pendant on his waist, and when he turned around, his pair of deep eyes were dim and devoid of light.
"No way!" Don't tell me you've been drinking tea in that teahouse since morning? Oh, I almost forgot, today is the eighth of July! It's been seven years, and every year you go to that teahouse on this day, and the result is the same! You remember the day you met, but they may not remember! It's still yours, it's not something you can force me to do! You and her are fated to have no fate ~! Murong Che, give up! " Shui Ruo Han rolled her eyes and couldn't help but to let out a long sigh. There were so many beauties in the Great Chu and he was looking forward to seeing them, but he did not even bother to look at them. Was he really going to wait for this ethereal man for his entire life?
"Did the woman fall asleep? We'll arrive at the Imperial City the day after tomorrow. I don't wish for any mishaps to occur! " His voice became cold again, and Murong Che turned his head away. He looked at Shui Ruo Han with a profound look. This was the first time he was so generous. He took out his spirit pellet and fed it to that woman!
Ruo Shuihan slowly put down the hair in her hands, and a glimmer appeared in her eyes. Suddenly, she stood up and moved to stand in front of Murong Che with evil intentions …
"If Leng Ao Tian doesn't agree, how are you going to deal with that girl?"
"Never thought of it! Because he will definitely agree! " With his handsome eyes lowered, Murong Che's gaze fell on the jade pendant. Just as Shui Ruo Han had said, his real goal was to find her …
"That... "I mean, in case …" Shui Ruo felt indignant, and added on.
"Hoh, the Nether Cult head has always liked girls from big families that haven't left the pavilion. When did he become interested in a married woman?" Murong Che's thin lips slightly pursed, his eyes looking at Shui Ruo Han whose radiance sprinkled down from the ground. The smile within was completely hidden by the curve of the corner of his mouth!
Shui Ruo Han looked at Murong Che's extremely sarcastic eyes, looked at him and chuckled. In the next second, her face was expressionless as if it had been sealed. He threw down the word 'boring', and then left!
The night was as cool as water under the waning moon.
"Dong'er, does your left shoulder still hurt?" Chu Jian gently looked at the young face, and a trace of love flashed through her heart.
"Mm …" It doesn't hurt anymore, Big Brother Chu, didn't you say you would bring me to find big sister Bi Xuan? She … Nothing will happen, right? " Dong'er tilted his head to the side, blinking her eyes as he looked at Chu Jian. In these few days, the trust between them had been completely established, and in Dong'er's eyes, Chu Jian, Xu Bixuan, and Feng mama were her family members as well!
"Dong'er …" If there comes a day when Big Sister Bluelily is not by your side, Big Brother Chu is not here either … You must take care of yourself! Do you know how happy you are to be living your own life? " Chu Jian carefully removed the ointment from Dong'er's knees. According to Xu Bixuan's explanation, after this ointment was removed, Dong'er would act like a normal person and walk around as she wished!
"Not by my side? No way, Big Sister Bi Xuan said that no matter where she goes, she will bring me along. She won't let anyone bully me, and I won't let anyone bully her! Big Brother Chu … I... I miss Sister Bi Xuan so much! Take me to her! When that time comes, we will stay far away from the palace. "Okay?!" Dong'er looked pleadingly at Chu Jian Chen, and her eyes immediately became misty. With a "pa da" sound, tears began to flow from the corners of her eyes!
He had originally thought that he was only feeling sympathy for her, pity her. At this moment, he could no longer convince himself that the pain in his heart had nothing to do with it, that the occasional heartache and throbbing of his heart, the moment of worry, was all for her!
Chu Jian Chen was finally moved. Although Dong'er did not have a proud body or outstanding looks, her pure and innocent smile could not be compared to anyone else's! The moment Jian Chen saw Dong'er, she knew that she had something that he would never be able to get her hands on in his entire life!
"Dong'er, don't cry! "Big Brother Chu will bring you to a safe place. No one will bully you again. You have taken off the ointment, quickly get up and try!" Chu Jian gently caressed the tears on Dong'er's face, slowly lifting her up with a pampering look in his eyes.
"Mm …" I... "I'm scared!" Sometimes there was no hope, and then there was no disappointment. Luo Jingye's words gave Dong'er great hope. When it really came to verifying the truth, Dong'er suddenly felt scared. She was afraid that she was still crippled. This kind of blow might be even harder to accept than the fact that she was crippled!
Seeing through Dong'er's thoughts, Chu Jian gently rubbed her knees. Her eyes slowly drooped and her lips opened up …
"Dong'er, Big Brother Chu has a secret for you, okay?" Seeing Dong'er's wide eyes, Chu Jian laughed.
"I died when I was little and my parents were raised by Master. I was really naughty at that time, and once, when Master was not around, I picked some unknown fruits and fed them to Master's favorite sika deer, who knows when the sika deer was done eating, and suddenly fell to the ground and didn't move at all. I was very scared then, and hid in the cave for a few days, and I was very hungry and scared, but I didn't dare to go out and confront Master, and then I figured it out, no matter what the result was, I shouldn't run away, because I can't solve any problems at all, like now, whether you're afraid or not, you have to take a step out and can't sit here for your whole life. No matter what the result, at least we did our best! Right? "
Dong'er pursed her lips and nodded. She slowly stretched out her left leg, but stopped the next second …
"Big Brother Chu, what happened to the sika deer?" Dong'er looked at Chu Jian in doubt, and a sliver of hope appeared in her eyes!
"It's fine!" With a smile, Chu Jian Chen slowly helped Dong'er out of the bed!
Perhaps it was because of the great encouragement given by the story of Chu Jian, but Dong'er wasn't as nervous as before. One step, two steps, three steps … Dong'er was pleasantly surprised to discover that her legs were no longer limping, and every step she took was steady and firm. That feeling of missing a step for a long time caused her to madly jump in joy!
"Big Brother Chu!" I'm done! It's really better! If she saw it, she would be delighted! And Brother Luo! When I see him again, I must kowtow and thank him! " Seeing the happy smile on Dong'er's face, Jian Chen felt much more at ease!
At this moment, two figures flashed past the window, causing Chu Jian's heart to sink. Both of her hands steadied Dong'er, and he smiled as he spoke.
"Your leg injury is just right. You can't use so much strength. Hurry up and go back to bed. I'll go out and get some food. Wait for me to come back!" Dong'er nodded her head vigorously before bouncing back onto the bed. Waving her hand at the departing Chu Jian.
As he closed the door, a sliver of desolation flashed across his heart. So the envoy really could not have feelings for him, because the moment he died, he found out that he could not bear to part with him!
"Big Brother …" This time, we really have to raise our heads and go back to see the emperor! " Xijue's face was covered with the word "weak", but Zhui Feng nodded in agreement!
"Is there really no news at all in the martial arts world?" When Chu Jian returned to Dugu Yuan's old residence, she did not discover anything!
"Yes, there is. However, it is said that this Dugu Yuan has already died!" Brother, you're not mistaken, right? " No matter what they said, it was useless now. Tomorrow was the ten-day period, and up until now, they had gained nothing!
"There's no point in saying these things now. I'm guessing that Xu Bixuan is probably at the underworld by now, but she doesn't need to be afraid. With the three of us dead together, she shouldn't be too lonely!" Xijue smiled bitterly.
"How do you know he'll be willing to use you!?" Don't say anything more, wash your neck and return to the palace later! " Chasing Wind was even more solid. Even his clothes were new!
"As matters stand, we can only return to report back to the palace. It's just that... I have a private matter to attend to. Wait for me tonight! I've settled Dong'er. Let's return to the capital together, and I'll do my best to protect your lives! " Chu Jian's face was solemn and her eyes were firm. Looking at her long-lost brother, she felt a sense of guilt! After all, it was all because of him!
Xijue and Zhui Feng looked at each other, then both kneeled on the ground, their mouths were filled with solemn promises …
"Big brother!" We brothers are willing to follow our elder brother and live and die together! "This is a matter of our brothers' free will. We have no regrets in coming back to the capital this time!" Jian Chen's throat was slightly choked with sobs. He hurriedly helped the two of them up as his eyes became filled with a mist.
"I, Chu Jian Chen, have a brother like you. It's enough for me in this life!"
"Big brother, Dong'er is a servant of the palace. Why is big brother uninterested in sending her back to the palace?" Xijue looked at Chu Jian in confusion.
"You should know what kind of place the Imperial Palace is, Dong'er is innocent and naive. Previously, there was even Xu Bixuan protecting her, but now that Xu Bixuan has met with mishap, if she goes back there, there's only death waiting for her!" "You guys wait for me!" Chu Jian took a deep breath, then turned around and left!
"Big brother can't have fallen for Dong'er, right?" Xijue sighed in his heart as he saw the heavy steps Chu Jian took when she turned around.
