Chapter 164 Coax Her

In the darkness, Jiang Yuzhu slowly woke up.

She found herself lying on the bed with a severe headache. She fell into a deep pit and lost consciousness. Could it be that she was caught by the man in purple again?

Her body felt as if she was in an ice cellar and she was shivering with cold. Jiang Yuzhu wanted to sit up, but she found her arms and legs were weak and she couldn't exert any strength in her whole body.

She was powerless to resist, which made her even more panicked.

After calming down for a while, Jiang Yuzhu felt for the bracelet on her wrist and felt a little relieved.

The cold air came from all directions and rushed in, penetrating into her limbs and bones. Jiang Yuzhu felt the blood in her body solidify and her teeth chattered with cold.

Hongli must have sent the message out, but in the end she never waited for anyone to come and rescue her.

Xie Zhao, will he come?

Jiang Yuzhu slowly closed her eyes, thought about the question seriously, and found that she was not sure.

As if in a flash, yet as if a long time had passed, the door was pushed open with a creaking sound.

The footsteps came closer and stopped beside the bed.

An unknown sense of panic swept over her body in the darkness. Jiang Yuzhu bit her lip and prepared herself to fight that man to the death.

At the moment of contact, Jiang Yuzhu struggled desperately, but the man held her arms tightly and pulled her into his arms.

The two of them were too close, and the friction generated an electric current. The warm breath with a slight moisture was right next to Jiang Yuzhu's ear, making her feel nauseous.

"Get out of here, get out of here!"

The other party's actions were too intimate. Jiang Yuzhu was frightened and annoyed. She couldn't use her strength and bit the other party's arm.

Even if she dies, she must make the man in purple lose a piece of flesh and blood!

Strangely enough, ever since Jiang Yuzhu started talking, the man stopped struggling.

Just as she was wondering, a hoarse voice sounded: "Yuzhu, it's me."

Xie Zhao curled his lips helplessly, but his arms were restrained by Jiang Yuzhu and he didn't have time to pull them free.

The strong smell of blood around her mouth, Jiang Yuzhu shook off Xie Zhao's arm and screamed: "Yuanhe, why is it you?"

Xie Zhao came to save her, why didn't he say anything?

Jiang Yuzhu felt even more upset because he could not distinguish between friend and foe and hurt Xie Zhao for no reason.

Xie Zhao smoothed her hair, held her in his arms, and said in a soft and soothing voice: "Yuzhu, if I forcibly pull my arm out, I will hurt you."

Jiang Yuzhu had already been given medicine, and Xie Zhao thought she would not wake up so soon, so he did not make any big noise.

Unexpectedly, even though Jiang Yuzhu was sick, she still moved very quickly.

At least, this tooth is very useful.

It was pitch dark outside, and Xie Zhao lit the oil lamp in the room.

With the help of the faint light, Jiang Yuzhu discovered that it was neither the Xie Mansion nor the Jiang Mansion.

The room is simply furnished with few items, but the bookshelf in the corner is extremely eye-catching.

"This is my husband's yard outside the city. He will stay overnight when he goes out of town for work."

Xie Zhao took out a white handkerchief from his arms and touched the corner of Jiang Yuzhu's lips. In an instant, gorgeous poppy flowers bloomed on the handkerchief.

This blood belongs to Xie Zhao.

Jiang Yuzhu gently stroked her lips, then belatedly stared at the handkerchief, and then suddenly burst into tears, "It's all your fault!"

I entered the room without making any noise and met with misfortune!

Jiang Yuzhu knew how hard she bit people, and she felt guilty when she saw the glaring teeth marks on Xie Zhao's arm.

"It's my fault."

Xie Zhao hugged Jiang Yuzhu in his arms and touched her forehead with his hand. Fortunately, it was not so hot anymore.

Jiang Yuzhu was silent, tears rolling down her cheeks. Xie Zhao could only wipe them away clumsily, but they were not wiped away completely.

Soon, the other handkerchief was wet.

"It's my fault for coming too late."

Xie Zhao apologized carefully, which made Jiang Yuzhu cry even more.

Now, Xie Zhao was at a loss as to what to do. He was so flustered that he didn't know how to comfort Jiang Yuzhu. He could only hold Jiang Yuzhu in his arms and pat her back gently.

Jiang Yuzhu felt dizzy and felt the warmth in Xie Zhao's arms, which made her hum comfortably.

At this moment, she had mixed feelings. While she hated someone for plotting against her, she was also upset for accidentally hurting Xie Zhao, and felt guilty and distressed.

In times of crisis, Xie Zhao still came. He is trustworthy.

After a long while, Jiang Yuzhu said awkwardly: "Remember, I am not a debtor. I will repay you in the future."

Xie Zhao's heart could not help but move, as if he had heard the most wonderful love words, and his blood was boiling. He felt happy in his chest, and asked in a low voice: "Madam, how are you going to repay me? Why don't you consider what I suggested last time?"

It is said that the only way to repay a life-saving favor is to repay it with one's own body. Xie Zhao saved Jiang Yuzhu several times. He only made a small request, asking Jiang Yuzhu to consider the matter of the Spring Palace.

"Then I saved you too!"

Jiang Yuzhu spat. Xie Zhao was nothing like the abstinent male protagonist described in the book. He was a wolf in sheep's clothing, sinister and calculating. If you weren't careful, you would fall into his trap!

Xie Zhao held her in his palms and in his mouth. Even though Jiang Yuzhu was very cautious, she already trusted him deeply.

Xie Zhao curled his lips teasingly and coaxed softly: "Yes, so your husband is always ready to sacrifice himself, and your wife has the final say."

"No seriousness!"

Jiang Yuzhu felt much better now that she was no longer shivering from the cold. She leaned in Xie Zhao's arms, perhaps because she was too tired and reluctant to give up the warmth.

Faced with Xie Zhao's burning gaze, Jiang Yuzhu felt extremely uncomfortable and refused to answer the question.

Maybe one day, I don’t know how long it will take.

Xie Zhao was willing to wait, because this time, unlike more than three years ago, it would be a real wedding night.

With a faint smell of blood still wafting through her nose, Jiang Yuzhu suddenly sat up straight and said, "Your wound needs to be bandaged."

"good."

If it weren't for the wound on his arm, the couple's relationship would never have taken a big step forward.

The slight pain in his arm was negligible to Xie Zhao. Even if he had to use a self-torture tactic, he wanted to keep Jiang Yuzhu tightly by his side.

As the night deepened, only a thin layer of light remained from the oil lamp.

Xie Zhao first added lamp oil and lit the wick, then went to the kitchen and brought back two bowls of steaming meat wontons.

The wonton soup was topped with seaweed and a few small shrimps, and the soup was very fresh.

"This smell is from the Jiang family's cook?"

Jiang Yuzhu blew on it and couldn't wait to drink a mouthful of the soup.

The smell was too familiar, she asked suspiciously.

Xie Zhao pushed the appetizer over and nodded.

"Mother said that whenever Madam is sick or frightened, she would feel better after eating a bowl of hot wontons."

The cook was from the northwest, brought over from Jiang Fulu's hometown, and had been working in the Jiang mansion since Jiang Yuzhu was very young.

Xie Zhao sent someone to deliver a letter to the Jiang family. Before leaving, Chen had no other requests and handed the cook over.

Jiang Yuzhu squinted her eyes and took a bite of wonton. She felt sad after surviving the disaster and asked hurriedly, "What about mother..."

"Don't worry, Madam. Your husband has already made all the arrangements."

Take this opportunity to involve all the enemies and deal with them, waiting for them to lose their composure.

Jiang Yuzhu felt wronged, and Xie Zhao took his anger out on a wide range of people.

After rescuing the people, Xie Zhao did not make it public, but waited to find the Xuan family, the Wei family and other families to make trouble.

After eating wontons and drinking a bowl of hot tea, the pain in her lower abdomen was no longer noticeable. Jiang Yuzhu narrowed her eyes in satisfaction and asked, "Who is the mastermind behind this? Have you found out?"
