Spring Courtyard Forbidden Pet

Seeing Ye Zhenru being struck by lightning, Sancho pursed his lips and said, "Second Miss, now you know what to say to my nephew."

He slowly got out of the car, and the flashing light pierced Ye Zhen's eyes, but she seemed not to notice.

Ye Zhen and Li Xuan were the only ones left in the carriage. Listening to the sometimes long and sometimes short breathing beside her, she slowly realized that her heart was aching and her fingertips were trembling, as if someone had sprinkled a handful of ice beads in her heart, and the hard and cold pain rolled over her heart.

She didn't dare to ask Li Xuan what illness he had. The fact that he endured the pain for her was enough to make her feel suffocated.

Why do you do this?

What Meng Qianru said that day was right. It was Li Chengge and Ye Xue who owed her money, and they should be the ones to pay it back. What does it have to do with Li Xuan'an!

Why does he do this?

Li Xuan huddled in his fox fur coat. The thirty-six silver needles did not seem to give him any comfort. His slightly furrowed brows and wet eyelashes spoke of the unbearable pain. He gritted his teeth, trembled, and shrank into the corner.

Ye Zhen wiped away the tears from her eyes and tried to hold his hands, but unexpectedly, this little warmth irritated Li Xuan, and he hid further away.

It was as if her body temperature was a deadly fire.

Ye Zhen felt a pain in her heart and whispered, "Second Master, be patient and don't move."

Li Xuan'an had twelve needles in each of his arms, and his chest and head were also densely packed. His upper body was almost unable to move, and only his two long legs were left rubbing against the ground restlessly in the narrow carriage.

He instinctively avoided the warmth around him, which shocked Ye Zhen. When ordinary people are seriously ill or unconscious, their bodies feel cold and they will involuntarily move to warm places, but he is just the opposite.

She didn't dare to get closer, and hesitated whether to take her hand off his wrist. The next second, Li Xuan'an's hand had escaped from her palm, and he murmured two words, "Get out."

Ye Zhen felt like she was poured with cold water, and couldn't believe that he hated her so much.

"Don't touch me." Li Xuan choked and his brows furrowed even tighter.

If Sancho hadn't said that, Ye Zhen would have been very sad to hear these words, but now she didn't retreat but advanced instead. She didn't know where she got the courage from, and once again tightly grasped his wrist, and said to him in a soft but trembling voice, "I am Ye Zhen."

"Second Master, I'm Ye Zhen."

Li Xuan'an's frown seemed to relax a little. Ye Zhen held her breath and moved closer. "Don't move. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, you can tell me."

She picked up the fallen fox fur and covered his waist with it, her movements very soft and gentle, "We'll be back home soon."

Li Xuan seemed to hear a voice like the gurgling of a stream lingering in his ears, very gentle and patient, repeatedly persuading himself not to move and to be patient.

who is it?

Who else in this world would really care about him?

Ye Zhen? No, she likes someone else, and she wants to know everything with herself.

"I don't want anyone!" He murmured through gritted teeth, and forced his eyes open. His unfocused blood-red eyes fell on Ye Zhen's face, and anyone who saw it would gasp.

In her impression, Li Xuan was gentle and cold, and also reserved and proud. No matter what, he was always calm and composed. But the alert and sensitive man in front of her was like an out-of-control beast, which Ye Zhen could not even imagine in her dreams.

"Okay, I won't come near."

Ye Zhen's voice was trembling. In order to make him let down his guard, she moved to the opposite corner farthest from him and said, "Don't get excited."

Sancho asked her to say something that Li Xuan would like to hear, but how could this happen?

She couldn't get close to him at all. He treated her like an enemy and she realized how uncomfortable it was. It turned out that she was spoiled by him in the past.

Sitting on the ground in a daze, Ye Zhen's vision was blurred and she couldn't find a way out for her messy thoughts. She felt distressed for Li Xuan'an's appearance, and also felt uncomfortable because she had no idea what to do.

She held her cheeks with both hands and murmured helplessly, "I can't get over it if you do this."

"What do you want me to give back?"

I was reborn for revenge and freedom, and I don't want to owe you so much.

Ye Zhen also felt very tired. Since her rebirth, even in the various difficulties in her previous life, she had never felt as helpless as she did now. A strong sense of escape arose from the bottom of her heart.

Li Xuan was much quieter, occasionally twitching slightly due to the pain in his body. Most of the time, the contours of his eyebrows and eyes were still delicate and beautiful, especially the teardrop mole at the corner of his eye, which concealed his pitiful look and self-protection.

Ye Zhen smiled bitterly. Sancho really overestimated her. There was nothing she could do.

The way back to the mansion was very slow. She held her chin with her hand and looked at Li Xuan without blinking, as if this could give her clear answers to all her questions.

Yun Zhui was very nervous when he first heard the noise inside, and became even more worried when the noise gradually died down.

He grabbed Sancho's sleeve and complained, "When the Second Master was unconscious, he didn't allow anyone else to get close except you and me. How could you let her stay in there?"

Sancho said meaningfully, "You know nothing! With such a good opportunity, of course we have to close the distance between them."

Yun Zhui frowned even more tightly, "Humph, they have already left the city to pick up General Dong, what else does the Second Master have to do with it!"

"I think all your previous efforts were in vain."

Sancho's eyes widened as big as copper bells. "What did you say? Miss Ye Er is dressed so beautifully today. Are you going out of the city to meet General Dong?"

Sancho's doubts finally got an answer, no wonder he vomited blood.

"Yes! It's a pity that the Second Master came to discuss with her about Mr. Ye's medication, but he found out that she had been drinking. This really pissed the Second Master off."

Yun Zhui now feels that Ye Zhen is using the Second Master to achieve his goals, but he is unwilling to accept this possibility, so his mood fluctuates greatly.

Sancho narrowed his eyes and thought for a while. He first felt that this competitor was a bit troublesome, then he chuckled. Under Yun Zhui's incredulous gaze, he slapped his thigh and said, "It has to be him!"

"What could be more effective than a self-torture tactic at this moment?"

Yun Zhui was confused, "Master Junior, what are you talking about?"

Sancho raised an eyebrow, "Be good, you are still young. Don't ask about adult matters."

*

When they arrived at the Marquis's residence, Sancho pulled Yun Zhui over and quietly reminded him, "Don't bring in the painkillers later."

Yun Zhui was shocked, "Do you want to kill me?"

Sancho quickly covered his mouth and winked, "It's right to listen to me. Bring in the medicated oil first, the one that's used to rub the bruises on your back!"

Although Yun Zhui was puzzled, he knew that Sancho was the only one who could help the Second Master overcome the difficulties, so he had to do it no matter how reluctant he was.

This was also Ye Zhen's first time entering Baoyue Tower during the day.

The last time was when he wanted to send Chenxiang away on the day he left the Marquis' Mansion but was refused entry. The time before that was that night when Ye Xue sent him to Li Xuan'an's room. After the love affair, he ran away with trembling legs and had no time to take a closer look.

The room was simply furnished. Apart from the daily necessities, there were some utensils and books related to monasticism. The most eye-catching thing was the pot of green jasmine on the windowsill.

Apart from this, it is hard to tell what Li Xuan'an's daily hobbies are.

A trace of doubt flashed through Ye Zhen's mind in panic. Are all Taoist rooms like this, or is it that Li Xuan has no expectations for life deep down in his heart?

Ye Zhen herself was trapped in love in her previous life and lived such a miserable life, yet she still kept a room she liked in the winery. The furnishings in it all showed her hope for a comfortable and affluent life.

Even Ye Jinglan's yard was planted with ivy and roses, and the place in the room where the Taoist books were hidden was the safe place for the secrets in his heart.

A person's room can best reflect the traces of his life in this world, but Li Xuan doesn't have one.

The pot of green parsley was of average appearance and its color was not top-notch. It stood alone on the windowsill, looking dead.

Thinking of Li Xuan'an's instinctive resistance to warmth, Ye Zhen's already depressed mood became even heavier, so much so that she didn't even realize that she couldn't help at all, so why did she follow him to the Marquis' Mansion?

Yun Zhui and the Taoist boy settled Li Xuan, and San Qiao took out the needles and told them to go out and prepare the medicine. Then he said to her, "Second Miss, help me undress the Second Master."

Ye Zhen came back to her senses and asked, "Undress?"

Sancho looked calm and waved his hand, which was already stained with medicated oil, at her. "I was so busy that I forgot to undress him."

"Please help me, Baoyue Tower has no maids to use."

Ye Zhen didn't shy away, but when she walked up to him, she remembered that Li Xuan was very reluctant to get close to her in the carriage, so she hesitated, "Second Master doesn't seem to like me getting close to him."
