CH 20

“Use the medicines properly.” Shen Zhonghua instructed Shen Qi: “This prince will check.”

How to check it? Shen Qi failed to notice the shallow concern in Shen Zhonghua’s instructions but felt humiliated. However, she still took the medicines and her voice was indifferent: “This slave thanks wangye for his rewards.”

“In the future......” Shen Zhonghua opened his mouth, seemingly a little hesitant: “Don’t call yourself a slave.”

Shen Qi didn’t ask, waiting quietly for his next words and just heard Shen Zhonghua say: “I will give you a name.”

Shen Qi was stunned. It wasn’t because Shen Zhonghua said he was going to give her a name, but because Shen Zhonghua didn’t call himself “this prince”, but called himself “I”.

“Did I hear it wrong?” Shen Qi thought to herself and then thought again: “What about Su Lianxue?”

If Shen Zhonghua gave her a status then what about Su Lianxue? Wasn’t he going to have a lifetime with her?

However, Shen Zhonghua then said: “Su...... The one in Xi Courtyard, this prince has sent her back to the general’s residence.”

He claimed to be this prince again. Shen Qi thought she must’ve heard it wrong. With memories of the previous life, Shen Qi thought Su Lianxue was angry and went back because she knew Shen Zhonghua had a relationship with her. She thought of what Leng Xing said to her. From then on there was only one woman in Prince Xuan’s palace and thought of the dream, the memory of the previous life, she had last night. Shen Qi couldn’t help but shiver.

“Uncomfortable?” Shen Zhonghua’s breath approached her. Shen Qi held back, controlling her subconsciousness to retreat.

“Where are you uncomfortable?” Shen Zhonghua asked again. His voice was a little eager.

Shen Qi lowered her head. Her voice was still indifferent: “Shen Qi is fine.”

“...” Shen Zhonghua looked down at Shen Qi, but because her head was lowered, he couldn’t see her expression clearly. He was a little flustered. His thoughts were in turmoil with anxiety and his heart distracted. He wanted to say something to her but he didn’t know where to start.

Until he heard Shen Qi asked him: “Does wangye still need to approve official affairs today?”

“No.” Shen Zhonghua waved. His mood was really terrible and smashed everything. But he heard Shen Qi’s voice. Even if her voice was indifferent, his heart had become much softer when he heard it.

Shen Zhonghua suddenly asked Shen Qi: “These days, the Lantern Festival, you......”

Shen Zhonghua originally wanted to say: “Do you want to see it?”

What was said was: “You accompany this prince to see it.”

Shen Qi obediently replied: “Yes.”

Shen Zhonghua was very relieved because he knew she would only obey his orders. At the same time, he also knew he didn’t dare to ask her if she wanted to because he was afraid of being rejected by her.

In the previous life, Shen Zhonghua had nothing to fear until Shen Qi died in front of him. Until he first saw the hatred against him in Shen Qi’s eyes. Until he later knew some truth and knew his mistakes were ridiculous and excessive......

He had nothing to fear because what he wanted was lost. What he most wanted to protect was destroyed by his own hands......

Shen Qi was dead and nothing was left......

Not to apologize, not to explain, not to mention his hindsight, his consciousness afterward, and his stupidity, he couldn’t even make the simplest remedy......

In this life, he lived again and finally had the chance to make up for her, favor her, love her, protect her, and cherish her. He would be careful in the future. He was too scared of losing her, losing her once again......

Yes, Shen Zhonghua had lived over a lifetime. Now Shen Zhonghua was the same as Shen Qi with the memories of his previous life.

Rebirthed when he was running around, searching for a priceless treasure to exchange for Su Lianxue’s smiling red face.
