Resisting the Wind and Splendor

"What did you say?" Chu Yueli was almost scared out of her wits.

Is it something you can just say carelessly?

"Your Highness, please be careful with your words. If such things get out, I will be infamous again."

"That's why I only mentioned it to you, and never to anyone else."

Lu Beimo closed his eyes again, concealing everything in them: "I feel wronged, Ali."

"Your Highness, please stop joking!" Chu Yueli's face darkened.

When did she ever say she wanted to marry him?

From a very young age, she had already fallen in love with Lu Fengjin.

I never actually spent any time with Prince Mo.

Lu Beimo didn't speak again. After closing his eyes, he seemed to have made up his mind to sleep, ignoring whatever Chu Yueli did to his wounds.

Only occasionally, when the wound hurts, will his thick, dark eyebrows furrow slightly.

Chu Yueli carefully finished bandaging his wound, but he seemed to have already fallen asleep.

She said softly, "Your Highness, the wound has been treated. You should go back now."

He didn't respond, so Chu Yueli could only patiently call out again, "Your Highness..."

"I'll leave as soon as I wake up."

"But you can't sleep in my dorm room!"

"She's already asleep." So why dwell on it anymore?

Chu Yueli knew that this guy really didn't intend to leave.

Okay, if he won't leave, then she can leave, right?

After packing up the medicine box, Chu Yueli prepared to leave.

But just as she was about to reach the door, she heard the man behind her say in a hoarse voice, "You really promised to marry me when you grow up."

She paused, her brow furrowed, and she was angry.

"Your Highness, please..."

But when I turned around, I only felt a cool breeze.

The window was open, but the other person had already left.

Even the Moon-Slaying Blade was gone.

Chu Yueli felt inexplicably uneasy.

Although the Great Demon King always spoke in a flippant manner, his words just now carried a hint of grievance, yet he didn't seem to be teasing her.

Could it be that she really promised him something?

Impossible. Since she was old enough to understand, when has she ever spent any time with the former Fourth Prince, now the Prince of Mo?

I don't know which girl this guy was engaged to, he made a mistake and blamed it on her.

Although he doesn't seem like he's that unreliable.

But who knows!

It's quite willful of him to beat up the Third Prince of Dongzhou.

Chu Yueli tidied up the room before returning to bed to rest.

My mind is full of things, but I don't know exactly what I'm thinking. In short, it's all jumbled up.

Finally, just as I was about to fall asleep, some images seemed to flash through my mind—

She kissed him and mumbled sleepily, "When I grow up, I want to marry you."

...Chu Yueli suddenly opened her eyes!

I broke out in a cold sweat!

It turned out to be a dream.

She breathed a huge sigh of relief.

How terrifying!

I even dreamt that I kissed the Demon King and said something like, "I want to marry him when I grow up."

She's really been brainwashed by the big bad guy!

Chu Yueli pulled the blanket over herself, completely burying herself under it.

But one sentence kept lingering in my mind—Ali, I feel so wronged…

"Stop talking!"

A splitting headache!

……

Early in the morning, Zisu pushed open Chu Yueli's door.

"Miss, there was a pool of blood in the yard. I washed it away. What happened?"

Zisu was terrified; such a large pool of blood was enough to kill someone.

When Chu Yueli was woken up by her, she was still groggy.

Seeing someone by the bed, without thinking much, the words slipped out: "Great Demon King, did I really say I wanted to marry you?"
