"You don't even have to worry about being held accountable afterwards, because no one really cares about my life or death, and no one will...

To touch you, the Gu doctor who is in the favor of the Emperor."

"Lin Ci'an,"

He asked softly, his voice filled with a kind of broken despair, "You who manipulate people's hearts and play with poisonous insects...

Do you also think that bullying people like me is the safest and least harmful way to deal with it? "

"Uh!"

Lin Ci'an took a sharp breath, as if his heart was being cut into pieces by Chu Ziyu with the bluntest knife. The pain made him almost bend over.

"No... no! I didn't..."

He denied it hastily, his voice distorted with panic.

He never looked down on Chu Ziyu because he was unpopular. On the contrary, what he hated and resented was precisely the man's straight back even in adversity and his eyes that seemed to see through everything.

That made him feel ashamed of himself, and also made him... even more out of control and want to pull him down from the clouds and dye him with his own color.

But these words seemed so pale and ridiculous in the face of the tragic scene before them.

His denial only sounded more hypocritical to Chu Ziyu.

Chu Ziyu no longer looked at him, as if looking at him any longer would defile himself.

He turned his head with difficulty and closed his eyes. His long eyelashes cast a fragile shadow on his pale cheeks. His voice was exhausted to the extreme:

"Get out."

"Zi Yu..."

He called out hoarsely, reaching out his hand, wanting to touch him, even if it was just the corner of his clothes.

"Don't touch me with your dirty hands!"

Chu Ziyu suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were filled with bloodshot and undisguised hatred, "Lin Ci'an, if you still have a trace of conscience, get out now! Otherwise..."

He was panting, and because of excitement, the wound on his left arm began to bleed again, staining the white cloth that had just been bandaged red.

"Boss, stop acting. Lady Liu noticed that you didn't go to the warm room and came over here."

The sound of footsteps could be clearly heard outside the palace, along with the slightly shrill voice of Concubine Liu, who was impatiently scolding the palace servants who had come with her: "...You useless people, you can't even do the smallest things."

Lin Ci'an's face suddenly changed!

If someone saw him here and saw Chu Ziyu in this state... the consequences would be something Chu Ziyu would never be able to bear!

"excuse me!"

He no longer cared about anything else, he suddenly leaned over, grabbed the scattered quilt beside him, and without saying a word, wrapped the struggling Chu Ziyu tightly, and picked him up horizontally with the quilt!

"You...are so outrageous! Let me go!"

Chu Ziyu was shocked and angry, and was shaking all over because of his sudden action. His uninjured hand pushed his chest in vain, pulling the wound and causing him to feel black in pain.

The footsteps had reached the palace gate! The bolt made a slight sound as someone outside pushed it!

Lin Ci'an held him and rushed to the inner window, feeling the person in his arms struggling with all his might.

He made up his mind, lowered his head and leaned close to Chu Ziyu's ear, and said in a cold, unwilling, and threatening tone:

"If Your Highness doesn't want Concubine Liu to see you in this state after being toyed with by me, then you'd better not move!"

This sentence was like the most effective tranquilizer, instantly freezing all of Chu Ziyu's struggles.

Those eyes filled with anger and humiliation stared at him as if they wanted to skin him alive, but his body really did not move anymore, it was just tense like a bow that was about to break.

Lin Ci'an's heart ached at the sight of that look, but he didn't dare hesitate for a moment. He quietly opened the side window, exerted force with his feet, and jumped into the dark night outside the window.

At the same time, 6872 also swept the tail.

Almost at the same moment when their figures disappeared, the door of the bedroom was pushed open from the outside with a "clang"!

Concubine Liu rushed in with a cold air. The flickering candlelight illuminated the tidy room, with no sign of anyone returning.

Her carefully painted brows were tightly furrowed as she glanced around the palace suspiciously.

"Where are the people? Where did they go?"

Chu Ziyu looked at the system screen and thought to himself, "6872, well done! I'll give you a chicken drumstick later!"

6872: (≧?≦)? Serving the boss! It's my duty, I'll go through fire and water, even if it means sacrificing my life...

(Stop, stop, stop! Stop! Just say what you want! Stop reciting the idiom collection!)

(′▽`???) It’s just… I just activated the ‘One-click Restore Beautiful Home’ function, and the energy consumption is a bit high…

Hey hey... Boss, look at that latest 'Colorful Invincible Thunderbolt Tornado Skin'... it...)

(…speaking human language)

( (??????)?? Report to the boss! I want to change my skin and blind the leader of the next door strategy group!)
