Transmigrated into a vicious female supporting role, reborn as a hostage to the paranoid male protag

At this moment, Chu Xingchen was extremely quiet, like a sleeping prince in a fairy tale, without any stubbornness or paranoia.

Now, he looked more like a little animal in a deep sleep, very peaceful, and without the fierceness and cruelty in his eyes. Instead, he had some of the youthfulness that a teenager should have, just like what a person of his age should be like.

Zhang Susu looked at the young man in front of her. She really couldn't connect the paranoid and sickly emperor in the novel with the one in front of her now.

When Zhang Susu thought about the hands that would skin her alive in five years, she couldn't help but twitch with fear.

But Zhang Susu didn't believe it at the same time. She believed in her heart that Chu Xingchen's mind was not yet mature at this time. Su Yingxue treated him like this in the past, abused him, whipped him and humiliated him, but he still had a conscience and was willing to save her life in times of crisis.

From this we can see that Zhang Susu is willing to take a gamble to change her fate, and is also willing to believe that Chu Xingchen is a kind person at heart.

Zhang Susu was willing to take a gamble. She bet that Chu Xingchen just met the wrong person. If she, Zhang Susu, truly atones for her sins, treats Chu Xingchen sincerely, and treats him wholeheartedly, and then educates Chu Xingchen with the manners of a gentleman of good character, Chu Xingchen will surely become a modest gentleman who is upright, kind, knowledgeable, and well-mannered in the future.

"Qiu Shuang, no matter what, from the moment he rescued me from the brink of death in the lake, it was like a sudden enlightenment for me. I clearly realized how wrong I was to treat him."

Su Yingxue looked at Chu Xingchen in front of her and sighed. She couldn't tell Qiu Shuang that she had traveled through a book and knew almost everything about the future political situation and even the plot. She could only play it off and say, "Chu Xingchen saved my life, so from now on, I must protect his safety."

"As long as I stay in this palace, he will be mine from now on. Anyone who dares to bully him is bullying me. Anyone who dares to hurt him is hurting me!"

Su Yingxue said to Qiu Shuang word by word, "Starting tomorrow, you will send someone to spread the word that Her Royal Highness the Princess is grateful to Prince Chu for saving her life, and she and Prince Chu have become sworn brothers. From now on, Chu Xingchen is my adopted brother. All the servants and maids in the Princess's mansion will treat my brother as if he were my own!"

"From now on, Chu Xingchen will live in the Princess' Palace to help his brother recover. This will also make it easier for me, as his elder sister, to take good care of him. After all, this is also a special permission from His Majesty!"

"Qiushuang, those servants in the cold palace, keep an eye on them. Tomorrow, I will personally seek justice for Chu Xingchen!"

Su Yingxue just saw that when she said that she wanted to keep him safe, Chu Xingchen, who should have been asleep on the bed, suddenly trembled his eyelashes slightly. Although it was fleeting, the young man was still a young man after all, and he couldn't keep his composure.

It turned out that Chu Xingchen was pretending to be asleep just now.

This Chu Xingchen is quite interesting. Zhang Susu smiled. Although he is a bit cunning, he is still a young boy after all. He is not a secretive person. Even pretending to sleep can reveal his flaws. Such a young boy should be much easier to deal with than a cunning and treacherous official, right?

Since Chu Xingchen wanted to eavesdrop, Zhang Susu simply told him her thoughts and plans.

Zhang Susu could understand that Chu Xingchen was wary of her and didn't trust her. After all, no one would believe that a person who took pleasure in torturing him every day would suddenly have a conscience and take care of him and heal his wounds.

Chu Xingchen's actions were in line with his future ambition to become the ruler of Qisheng and establish new territories. However, for now, he was at a slight disadvantage in terms of age and experience. As a child, he would be deceived more often and would understand the treacherous nature of the world and human nature.

A young man living in the deep palace, fighting with the bookworm she had been immersed in for many years, a little too young and a little too young...

Su Yingxue thought with a bit of disdain, what's more, she still has a system to support her. Although the system has been dormant recently, compared to an NPC from another world set in a script, and there is no system cheat, what is there to be afraid of?

At least now, her status as the eldest princess, Su Yingxue, is far higher than Chu Xingchen's current status.

At least now, the power she holds in the Dasheng Palace is far greater than that of Chu Xingchen. She has nothing to fear...

Since Chu Xingchen doesn't want her to be here and is on guard against her, he's afraid she'd better leave first so he can rest assured.

Thinking of this, Su Yingxue changed the handkerchief on his forehead for the last time, then fixed the corner of the quilt for him and said softly, "Qiushuang, it's getting late. Please follow me back to the main hall."

Su Yingxue gently held Qiu Shuang's hand as they walked out. When they were almost at the screen, she seemed to suddenly remember something and said softly, "Oh, by the way, at night, have a few palace maids and attendants wait outside the palace to take care of him. And pass on my order: no one is allowed to enter the palace without being summoned, so as not to disturb Prince Chu's recuperation."

"Also, strictly order the palace maids and attendants in the side halls to take good care of Prince Chu. If Prince Chu loses even a hair or encounters any other mishap, have the maids in charge go to the palace head nanny to receive thirty military sticks and then report back to me!"

Su Yingxue added that her voice was so loud that the whole hall could hear it, including the person lying on the couch pretending to be asleep.

······

When Su Yingxue walked out of the side hall door, Chu Xingchen, who had been unconscious on the bed, opened his eyes instantly. His eyes were clear and bright, and there was no sign of sleepiness at all.

A dark figure jumped down from the beams and knelt before Chu Xingchen. He said in a hoarse voice, "My Lord, the matter you requested has been completed. Zhaoxue has already begun to stare at Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Zhaoying stood there, and he said in a hoarse voice, "My Lord, you said that Her Royal Highness the Princess originally hated you the most, but what kind of gourd is she trying to sell now?"

Chu Xingchen frowned slightly when he heard this.

He recalled the gentleness in her words, the carefulness with which she had wiped him, and the firmness of her words, "As long as I remain in this palace, he will be mine from now on. Anyone who dares to bully him is bullying me. Anyone who dares to hurt him is hurting me!"

Chu Xingchen frowned slightly. What was this? Was he still harboring evil intentions towards him? Did he want to keep him as his lover, abuse and bully him until he refused to yield, so he resorted to this? A policy of appeasement, using softness to overcome hardness, using warmth to lower his guard? Did he have other plans for him?

Chu Xing pondered this, his eyes darkened, his heart filled with rage, and he shouted angrily, "Don't even think about it! Witch!"

Chu Xingchen's eyes were deep, but he couldn't help but see the strange-shaped bandages tied on his body. He looked at these extremely ugly bandages and thought of what had happened just now. Although he couldn't see it, he imagined in his mind that she had applied medicine and bandaged him with her own hands, and his face couldn't help but blush.
