Prince! The political conspiracy is not a play, the show is real
Chapter 139 Inner Demon
"Lu Che, you must wake up. Don't you still have a lot of things to do? You have to be strong..."
Tao Yao didn't want to cry, but when she looked at Lu Che's face, she couldn't help but burst into tears, which fell on the bed in big drops, wetting a small area of the sheets.
Chu Huanjun also came forward and carefully examined Lu Che's injuries. He then patted Tao Yao on the back and comforted her, "Don't be too sad. He's not dead, is he? You're crying like you're at a funeral. You've cried all your luck away."
Chu Huanjun has always been like this. He can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth, and even his words of comfort are so unpleasant to the ear.
Although the words were unpleasant to hear, they did have an effect. Tao Yao wasn't a superstitious person, but she was worried about Lu Che at the moment. After hearing what Chu Huanjun said, she seemed to think there was some truth to it. She quickly raised her hand to wipe away the snot and tears on her face, saying repeatedly, "Don't cry, I won't cry anymore."
Chu Huanjun patted Tao Yao's back to help her calm down, and said softly, "The most important thing for you right now is to take care of your own health before worrying about others. If you fall ill first, how can you take care of Lu Che?"
Tao Yao stared at Chu Huanjun in a daze, her heart moved.
Why is it that Chu Huanjun seems like a different person recently? He seems... surprisingly gentle.
That Lantern Festival, Tao Yao had told Chu Huanjun that she hoped he would continue to be a good person. Could it be that he had really changed his mind recently and was really planning to start being a good person?
Tao Yao nodded and said, "Xiao Chu, you're right. I will definitely get my body in shape first... Oh, and thank you so much. Without you, Lu Che and I might not be alive."
Seeing Tao Yao thanking him sincerely, Chu Huanjun felt overjoyed again. He smiled and touched Tao Yao's head - well, the hair he had combed and washed for her personally felt good and smelled good.
It's much better than if she washed it herself.
At this moment, Chu Huanjun suddenly thought in his mind that when they were together in the future, he would wash her hair every day. They would both use the same scented hair oil and soap powder. She would have his scent on her body and he would have her scent on his body.
Thinking of this, Chu Huanjun couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. He smiled gently and said, "Yes, you finally understand. If it weren't for me, you, Shi Taoyao, would be chewing mud somewhere right now..."
As he spoke, his voice suddenly lowered, as if speaking to himself: "It's good that you know I'm good."
Chu Huanjun couldn't help but sigh again. It would be great if Tao Yao could really not live without him.
Tao Yao, being as slow as she was, naturally didn't understand the many twists and turns in Chu Huanjun's words. She was probably stunned by Zuo Tang and Zuo Qiu's outburst, and she still hadn't recovered from her shock. She nodded in agreement to everything Chu Huanjun said, as if it were the truth.
Chu Huanjun praised himself, and Tao Yao nodded repeatedly in agreement: "Yes, yes, Xiao Chu, you are so nice..."
As she spoke, Tao Yao couldn't help but feel a surge of heat in her eyes. Tears welled up in her eyes, and her eyes were covered with tears like fog. However, Chu Huanjun's face was clearly reflected in her eyes, and she couldn't ignore it even if she wanted to.
At that moment, Tao Yao couldn't help but ask herself in her heart, can she put aside those terrible prophecies and just believe him for once?
Just as Tao Yao's eyes were blurred with tears, a scream suddenly came from her ears.
Tao Yao quickly wiped away the tears from her eyes. When her vision became clear again, she saw Lu Che with his eyes wide open and a short knife in his hand, stabbing the blade straight towards Chu Huanjun.
Chu Huanjun quickly blocked Lu Che's sudden attack. Lu Che was injured, so Chu Huanjun simply blocked his attack. Even when Lu Che was about to strike again, Chu Huanjun quickly dodged to the side without making any counterattack.
"Are you trying to show off your strength here because you're injured and I can't do anything to you?"
Chu Huanjun smiled awkwardly and quickly pressed an acupoint on Lu Che's wrist, causing Lu Che's hand to freeze in place.
Tao Yao quickly snatched the knife from Lu Che's hand, her voice trembling uncontrollably. "Lu Che! Are you crazy?! He saved you, and you're going to attack your savior? Without him, we'd all be dead!"
As Tao Yao finished speaking, Lu Che suddenly woke up as if from a dream. However, his eyes were still fixed on Chu Huanjun, filled with endless hatred.
"Save...? Save me? Why save me..."
Lu Che's dry lips moved up and down, opening into a strange shape, and he tried his best to squeeze out this question from his throat.
"Lu Che, you should have a good rest first. We can talk about other things later, okay..." Tao Yao carefully tucked the quilt for Lu Che, her eyes full of worry.
Chu Huanjun interrupted Tao Yao and said, "Let him ask."
Lu Che's breath was so weak that he even had difficulty speaking, but he still chuckled coldly, as if he had witnessed something absurd and unbearable.
"You want to kill me, you want to put me to death, you want to torture me to the point where I'd rather die than live, and then you drag me back and force me to live. Is that what you call saving me?"
As Lu Che uttered these words word by word, Tao Yao was stunned.
For a moment, Tao Yao's mood was like a jar of sauce that had been overturned, and she couldn't tell the taste from any of it.
Chu Huanjun walked over, grabbed Tao Yao, and pulled her in front of Lu Che, saying to him, "Look carefully, it was her, the person you always said you would protect, who saved you from the gates of hell."
Lu Che's pupils trembled violently for a moment. The force of his strike against Chu Huanjun had caused the wounds on her arms and chest to re-open. The bleeding, which had finally stopped, began to flow again, staining the snow-white bedding with patches of red.
"If it weren't for her, I wouldn't bother saving you. You can fend for yourself, live or die, it's up to you."
Chu Huanjun added.
Tao Yao hurriedly tugged at Chu Huanjun's sleeve, trying to stop him from talking.
"Xiao Chu, Lu Che just woke up and might still be confused. Don't bother with him..."
But Chu Huanjun didn't intend to stop, and continued: "You said you wanted to protect her, but what? You fell into Zuo Tang's trap so easily, and even caused Tao Yao to put herself in danger to save you. You know martial arts, but what about Tao Yao? She went to save you without caring about anything, and she couldn't even guarantee whether she could survive. She only wanted to save you..."
No one expected that the usually gentle and cold Chu Huanjun would suddenly get so angry. Even Tao Yao was stunned.
