Chapter 434 Is She Really in Love?
Chapter 434 Is She Really in Love?
Upon hearing that Chu Yanqiu had woken up, Eunuch Guo, who had originally planned to take Shen Wen away from Duke Ji's Mansion, had no choice but to follow everyone into Chu Yanqiu's room to see Chu Yanqiu's condition with his own eyes.
Just as they were about to enter the house one by one, the housekeeper hurriedly brought Shen Wen to the yard.
As soon as the butler entered the room, he shouted as if to seek credit, saying that he had brought Lord Shen here.
Eunuch Guo had just stepped into the room when he immediately turned around to look at Shen Wen.
Master Ji Er, who was following behind, also turned back to look at Shen Wen. He waved his hand and said casually, "Great! My son Yanqiu just woke up. Quickly call Shen in. My son has been thinking about her the whole time."
So the little maid serving in the corridor immediately ran over, supported Shen Wen, and followed the crowd into Chu Yanqiu's room.
As soon as the servants saw their masters coming in, they left the house and waited in the corridor to receive instructions.
Only the first and second masters Ji and their wives, as well as eunuch Guo and Shen Wen were left in the room.
Chu Yanqiu opened his eyes and looked around. When he saw Shen Wen, his eyes finally lit up.
Eunuch Guo, who was standing closest to the bed, gently patted Chu Yanqiu's shoulder and said with a soothing smile, "Thank goodness you've woken up, young master. You're all right now. Just take good care of yourself at home. I came here today on the emperor's orders to personally check on you. I see you're getting better, so I'll return to the palace to report to His Majesty."
Chu Yanqiu looked extremely weak, so frail that even moving a finger seemed like an effort. He could only lean forward a little and said to Eunuch Guo, "Then thank His Majesty for your grace on my behalf. And thank you, Eunuch Guo, for still thinking of me. I'll be well in two days, and then I'll go to the palace to thank the Emperor in person."
Eunuch Guo smiled brilliantly and didn't say much to Chu Yanqiu. He just said that he would not disturb him from recuperating and then left with his men.
When Eunuch Guo turned around and saw Shen Wen behind him, he said to Shen Wen, "Master Shen, why don't you come with us to the palace to see His Majesty? Master Shen doesn't know yet, does he? His Majesty has been blaming you for not coming to the palace to fulfill the bet. If you happen to go to the palace today, you must explain everything to His Majesty."
Shen Wen smiled at Eunuch Guo and said, "It's my fault. I've been feeling unwell for the past few days and have delayed the work the Emperor has assigned me. I will follow Eunuch Guo to the palace and explain things clearly to His Majesty."
This time, Eunuch Guo nodded in satisfaction, then went over and tried to grab Shen Wen and walk outside.
When Chu Yanqiu saw Shen Wen leave with Eunuch Guo, his expression changed.
Before anyone could react, he quickly threw back the covers, jumped off the bed, and in a flash appeared beside Shen Wen. He grabbed her and dragged her back to his bed.
Chu Yanqiu sat on the bed, holding Shen Wen's hand tightly with her left hand, so tightly that her wrist felt painful.
Shen Wen had never expected this. She stared at Chu Yanqiu in surprise and struggled with her arms to shake off Chu Yanqiu's hands, but his shackled hands were like an iron chain and she couldn't get rid of them no matter what.
When everyone saw it, they were all surprised.
At this time, Master Ji was the first to step forward and persuade him, "What are you doing? This woman wants to leave because the emperor specifically ordered it. Stop being so willful and release her immediately. Let her return to the palace with Eunuch Guo to report."
Chu Yanqiu, however, didn't budge at all. He said coldly, "She's mine. No matter how big the matter is, she'll only follow me if I do it. She won't be entering the palace to see the emperor today."
The two masters were so angry that they almost fell over when they heard his words that disobeyed the imperial decree.
Master Ji Er had no choice but to quickly say to Eunuch Guo: "He...my son is sick now, Eunuch Guo, please don't blame him."
Shen Wen looked at Chu Yanqiu and saw that he was only getting crazier and crazier, with no sign of clarity. If he didn't follow his wishes today, he was afraid...
When I think of how crazy he was that night.
Thinking of this, Shen Wen said to Eunuch Guo, "Eunuch, please go back and report to His Majesty. Since Lord Chu has finally woken up, His Majesty doesn't need to worry. I've also been feeling a bit cold these past few days, so I can only stay here for a few more days. I'm used to the peaceful life in the Duke's Mansion. Please go back and report to His Majesty. I'm living very comfortably now."
Eunuch Guo naturally understood what Shen Wen meant. He looked at Chu Yanqiu again and thought of his unusual behavior in front of His Majesty. He sighed in his heart.
Eventually, things had escalated to this point. He had witnessed Lord Chu's suffering for His Majesty, and he knew it all. His Majesty's curse and Lord Chu's poison had been dealt with repeatedly over the years by experts from all over the land, but ultimately, their efforts had failed. That's why things had developed to this point: His Majesty was like that, and Lord Chu was like this.
Ugh!
Eunuch Guo felt something and looked worried. He said to Shen Wen, "Then, as Lord Shen wishes, we will return home. I will definitely tell His Majesty what Lord Shen wants to convey. Shall we leave now?"
So Master Ji Da and Master Ji Er personally escorted Eunuch Guo out of the house, leaving only Chu Yanqiu and Shen Wen looking at each other in the room.
Chu Yanqiu sat on the edge of the bed, staring at her intently. He sneered, "You're quite self-aware. I never thought you were so capable. Even His Majesty's personal attendant listens to you so well. You only need a few simple words, and he obeys without a second thought."
The more Shen Wen looked at this man, the more she loathed him. She narrowed her eyes and said coldly, "Do you still remember what happened this time? Look carefully, am I the fake one or the real one?"
When Chu Yanqiu heard her mention the fake product, he looked at the woman in front of him seriously.
Suddenly, he stood up quickly like a swift leopard and grabbed Shen Wen's neck.
The force in his hands was so great that Shen Wen almost suffocated. Her eyes instantly became bloodshot and bulged out, but she still stared at the man stubbornly.
Chu Yanqiu pinched the woman's neck with one hand and used the other hand to pull at her waist. By touching her, she could tell whether she was a fake or real one.
When he felt the rough texture of her lower abdomen, he relaxed, gently let go of the hand that was holding her neck, and instead hugged her in his arms, holding her whole body tightly against his chest.
Shen Wen was about to make a decisive move to kill, but at this moment she trembled. She didn't even notice that she hesitated. Why didn't she transform into a dagger again and stab it into his body like before?
Being embraced by this man as if he was embracing the whole world, Shen Wen felt mixed emotions. At this moment, she admitted that she really could not control this man. She had been painfully killed five times for him.
Is she really in love?
She actually loves to this extent, even if she is abused thousands of times?
My heart was filled with grief for a moment, and silent tears fell uncontrollably.
Chu Yanqiu also sensed her strangeness at this time. He let go of her and turned to look at her.
Chu Yanqiu's fingers touched the wetness on his face caused by the surging tears, as if his big hands could not wipe it away at all.
Chu Yanqiu, who was about to completely lose his sense of the outside world, was deeply touched.
It turned out that the little beauty in his arms really loved him terribly.
He picked up Shen Wen, feeling the heavy weight of the woman in his heart with his arms, and turned around to gently put her on the bed. At this moment, Chu Yanqiu showed his tenderness, but he didn't know that the previously wishful and infatuated second young master had already got what he wanted at this moment.
As usual, the full moon will always have a waning part, and love will always have regrets.
Second Young Master Chu, do you know that the iron-blooded woman under you already belongs to you?
The thrilling incident of the imperial envoy coming to visit the patient at the Duke of Ji's mansion finally passed.
With Miss Shen accompanying him the whole afternoon, Mr. Chu's room was very quiet.
Now, all the servants in the mansion were afraid of the Second Young Master Chu, whose temperament had changed drastically. Everyone stayed away from the Second Young Master Chu's yard unless necessary. The servants serving in his yard wanted to close all their senses and just serve as background decorations, standing straight and stiff, all of them as quiet as wooden men.
After a nap, Shen Wen, who was lying in bed with Chu Yanqiu, quietly pulled himself out of his arms and sat on the edge of the bed in a daze.
Looking at his hands, arms and other parts of his body, he returned to this body again.
I still remember that night when Yuchi Lian exposed me as a fake and Chu Yanqiu threw me to the Blood Talisman like garbage and I died tragically. Then, with the terrible explosion, Shen Wen lost consciousness.
When he woke up again, the first person he saw was Miss Shen, who looked just like him.
But this Miss Shen looked somewhat unreal, and Shen Wen stared at her blankly.
Miss Shen spoke first. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Finally, I've saved you, little thing. You didn't expect it, did you? I've accomplished what even the old demon Yuchi couldn't. Now, your body is protected by half of its master's heart, so she can't control it. Now, I've used up half of my cultivation to put your soul back into this flesh. She's afraid to act rashly, and every time she tries to tamper with this body, she'll be retaliated against. So, you just stay in this body obediently. Even if she comes looking for you later, she won't be able to do anything to you."
Shen Wen was very surprised after hearing this, and she couldn't help but look down at this body.
Her thoughts flickered, and she looked up and asked Miss Shen, "What about you? Don't you have a place to stay? Don't you become a wandering ghost?"
Miss Shen thought for a moment, a smile playing on her lips. She said, "It's not difficult. If you think so, then you really underestimate me."
The next moment, after Miss Shen finished saying this, she disappeared from the spot.
Shen Wen kept thinking about that Miss Shen, wondering what she was doing in secret.
Shen Wen pulled herself back to reality from her thoughts. She turned sideways and looked back at Chu Yanqiu who was sleeping on the bed. Suddenly, she felt an inexplicable regret. Faced with the temptation of this devil, she lost her clear mind and did that thing with him. Is she hopeless?
In a fit of anger, she stood up from the bed, but her movements were so loud that she woke up Chu Yanqiu who was sleeping.
When Chu Yanqiu opened his eyes, he saw Shen Wen standing up. He was in a good mood. He stretched out his long arm and pulled Shen Wen back onto the bed.
Chu Yanqiu leaned over and hugged Shen Wen's waist, his head nestled in Shen Wen's neck. The instantaneous and charming touch made Shen Wen's heart flutter.
She didn't know when they would be able to have such a heartwarming moment like any other couple.
