Fourth Prince Xiao Yu suffers from a strange illness. When it acts up, he feels intensely ashamed and his heart becomes extremely humble. Even when his "moonlight" shines on him, he shrinks...
Chapter 203 Nightmares and Sweet Dreams
Xiao Yu had a very confusing dream.
He first dreamed that Xu Chuchu and Shen Zhaozhi came back to him together, their bodies pressed tightly together, and they said they were already married and were about to elope.
Chen Zhaozhi also boasted that Xu Chuchu helped him take a bath last night, and it felt so comfortable and clean.
Xiao Yu felt heartbroken after hearing these words, and begged Xu Chuchu not to leave with Chen Zhaozhi.
He wanted to tell Xu Chuchu that Chen Zhaozhi was not a good person. He had harmed Xia Wanqing before and would definitely abandon her in the future.
But the words were stuck in my throat and I just couldn't say them.
He also wanted to pull Xu Chuchu back from Chen Zhaozhi, but he didn't dare to, for fear that acting rashly would make Xu Chuchu angry again.
This feels so crazy I'm about to explode!
But then Chen Zhaozhi disappeared again, leaving Xu Chuchu alone. She suddenly became gentle and close, leaning into his arms, and began to caress his wounds, comforting him with soft words, speaking tender and reluctant words.
Although it was clearly a dream, the feeling of touch was extremely real, and there was even a hazy and cool feeling, which made him so comfortable that he almost hummed.
...However, when he opened his eyes, he found that there was nothing in front of him.
After Xu Chuchu left, Xiao Yu often had dreams, both nightmares and sweet dreams.
He prefers nightmares to sweet dreams. Nightmares are painful, but when he wakes up, he will feel briefly relieved that everything in the dream did not happen... at least not in front of him.
If he had a beautiful dream, dreaming that he found Chuchu, or Chuchu came back to him... what was waiting for him after waking up was endless pain.
Xiao Yu sat up and suddenly felt something was wrong with him. He touched his waist and found that the dagger he carried with him was missing, and the small brocade box containing the blood-stained bronze fragments was also taken out and placed beside him!
Touching my swollen arms again, I realized that all those wounds I had once given up on were now completely healed! They were all treated with medicine and carefully bandaged!
Could it be Chuchu? She was here! She came to see him!
Yes, it must be her! Apart from Chu Chu, no one else would care about him like this!
"Chu Chu, Chu Chu!" Xiao Yu rushed out of the door, shouting her name frantically and searching aimlessly.
Even though he vaguely guessed that she had left, a feeling of ecstasy still swept over his body.
He even pinched the bandaged wound to feel the pain and make sure he was not in a dream.
Chuchu actually came to see him! She was also willing to be nice to him and take care of her. She was truly the best girl in the world!
He simply didn't dare to think about how he had gotten through this period of time.
She is there when I open my eyes, and she is there when I close my eyes. The scene of her hugging another man and leaving keeps echoing in my mind.
He couldn't help but imagine them laughing and joking, and imagine her snuggling in another man's arms at night... These images drove him crazy, and sometimes he couldn't even tell whether they were real or imaginary.
Then he couldn't control himself and started smashing things and pounding the wall to vent his anger.
He dismissed all the servants in the mansion because he couldn't guarantee that he would not suddenly lose control and vent his anger on them.
He locked himself up, wanting to feel what Xu Chuchu felt like being controlled, to experience her anger, to punish himself, and to force himself to wake up.
He tried various ways to control his emotions, distracting himself, practicing, and even seeing a doctor and taking medicine... but none of them worked. Only the pain could make him temporarily sober, but it would become numb over time.
He didn't even dare to look for her, didn't dare to see her cuddling with other men, for fear that he would lose control and do something to make her angry and disappointed.
He only dared to go to the place where they had been alone together again and again, reminiscing about it over and over again, deepening his memory, for fear that he would forget it over time.
I am in a daze and don’t know what day it is.
I didn’t expect… I didn’t expect that Chuchu would still look back at him again.
Even if she didn't want to talk to him, didn't want to face him anymore, and was willing to give him a little warmth, he would be content!
Thinking of this, Xiao Yu suddenly realized that Xu Chuchu might have bandaged him as a coincidence, and her main purpose might be to take away the sword.
She needed weapons, whether for combat or not, she must have been in some trouble.
Xiao Yu never wanted Xu Chuchu to get into trouble, but he had to admit that at this moment he suddenly felt that his existence had meaning.
He no longer needs to live in such a muddle-headed way. No matter what Xu Chuchu wants to do, he will do his best to help her!
…
Xu Chuchu didn’t know how Xiao Yu would feel when she woke up, and she didn’t want to think about it.
She collected materials and planned an action plan, but completely left Xiao Yu out of the plan.
After returning, Jiji saw his "heirloom" again and found that the original rust spots on it had been completely removed. Now the dagger can be used by not only a fortune teller but also an ordinary person, and it can cut iron like mud.
"That's amazing, Senior Sister, you know so much!" Jiji exclaimed, "If I could also do this sword washing thing you mentioned, I would definitely sell it for more than five hundred taels."
"If you hadn't sold it for five hundred taels, who knows who would have it by now. It wouldn't be easy to get it back." Xu Chuchu smiled easily, "I'll lend it to you for a while, and I'll return it to you later."
"It doesn't matter if you don't return it." Gigi said generously.
"For use as a barrier, this sword is indeed more suitable than the Floating Life Umbrella." The master also examined it carefully. "It has recently absorbed the blood of cultivators and has become more spiritual."
No, the flesh was all torn to pieces. Xu Chuchu thought to herself but didn't say it out loud.
She checked the list again and sorted out the materials that had not been collected yet. She felt a little tired and wanted to take a rest.
Turning around, she saw Ah Fu hiding in the corner and watching her furtively.
"Is there something?" Xu Chuchu asked, but she already had a vague idea of Ah Fu's purpose.
Being caught, he had no choice but to stand up: "Miss Xu, you went to see the young master today, right? He, he... is he okay?"
He lowered his head guiltily before he even finished speaking and asked a victim about the condition of the perpetrator. This was obviously not a high EQ behavior.
Xu Chuchu didn't mind and said bluntly: "It's really not good. He sent away all the servants in the mansion and now he lives like a ghost. Ah Fu, I know you have been worried about him. Once this matter is over, he should be able to return to normal and will not punish you. If you want to go back, go back. Just don't expose our whereabouts."
"Miss Xu." Ah Fu didn't expect Xu Chuchu to be so tolerant. He was so moved that he almost cried. "You have done so much for the young master. It's a great favor. He will definitely repay you!"
"No need." Xu Chuchu said calmly.
"Alright, you traitor!" A ball of orange-red fur leaped down from the tree, transformed into a human, and strangled Ah Fu's neck with its arms. "How many times do I have to tell you that Chuchu took this risk so I could eat fresh fish. It has nothing to do with that pervert of yours! If you dare to betray me and go back, I'll eat you right now!"
"Brother Cat, hey, Brother Cat, calm down!" Afu was half a head shorter than the big orange man in human form, and rolled his eyes because of being strangled. "I'm not leaving, I'm leaving. Who will comb and massage your fur every day, Brother Cat?"
"That's more like it." Daju let go of him and said seriously, "Don't lie to me."
He transformed into a cat again and lay down on the grass with his arms and legs spread out: "Come here quickly and give me, Cat Brother, a good massage."
This guy has made great progress recently. He feels more and more comfortable when being massaged. He has surpassed the perfunctory guy at the beginning who would just stroke it twice and leave.
But his favorite human is still Chuchu! Meow!
"Chu Chu, come here." Xu Chuchu was watching intently on the side when her master called her into the room.
"Chu Chu, Master has been feeling a little uneasy lately." She said with a worried look on her face, "I have a question I must ask you again, and you must answer honestly. If the medium wasn't the Brocade Anaconda, with whom you once had a relationship, but a completely unrelated person, would you still take such a big risk to change his fate?"
"Hmm?" Xu Chuchu had actually thought about this question for a long time and now had a clear answer, but she was still very curious why her master asked this. "Is this important to you, Master?"
