Chapter 31: Despicable Thoughts

Why!

Shen Tingyu was stunned, and her heart suddenly tightened.

She remembered that the tyrant had just experienced the greatest betrayal in her life. Seeing the panic behind him, she suddenly felt less angry.

She could understand his uneasiness.

She said slowly: "Because His Majesty is very good, you deserve it."

A strange light flashed in Xin Hongying's eyes. After a brief silence, her lips suddenly moved slightly, and she chuckled at herself, then burst into laughter, laughing until tears came out.

Although he had a smile on his face, there was no trace of a smile in his eyes. His pool-like pupils became even colder, and the aura around him became increasingly terrifying.

As if he had heard some ridiculous joke, tears appeared in the corners of his eyes.

She said he was worth it!

What a ridiculous joke.

It seems that I pretended too well in front of her, or I was really too good to her, which made her have such an illusion and she actually felt that she was worth it.

She doesn't understand herself at all!

If she knew his true face, she would not have such thoughts. There are as many people in this world who hate him as there are people who want him dead.

The veins on his forehead kept throbbing, and his head was aching like needles. Xin Hongying turned around and left with a big laugh.

“…” Shen Tingyu was stunned and tilted her head in confusion. She never expected him to react like this.

I just feel that his condition seems a little bad.

Shen Tingyu was about to catch up, but was stopped by a faint chirping sound.

After leaving court, Xin Hongying did not go looking for Chen Tingyu. He was holding the unfinished swing with an unreadable expression, and no one knew what he was thinking.

His fingers kept stroking the swing, and his head felt like it was being pricked by needles, a sharp pain. He let his emotions surge inside him. The simple swing spun under his fingertips. He held his forehead with one hand and closed his eyes.

During this period of time, the more unstable his emotions became, the more his head hurt.

Gao Tang approached slowly and said in a gentle voice, "Your Majesty, Concubine Yu is requesting an audience outside the palace."

"Quick, let her in..."

Xin Hongying frowned, opened her thin lips slightly, and was about to let her in, but suddenly realized that she really wanted to see her. She suddenly opened her eyes, and there was a coldness in her eyes.

How could that be!

The thought came strangely and violently, as if it was out of control.

Then I can't see her anymore.

"No!"

Xin Hongying waved her hand and said coldly, "No, let her go back. Keep an eye on her every move. Report any unusual behavior to me."

Gao Tang lowered his head, responded respectfully, and left.

"Empress Yu, His Majesty has said he will not see you."

How could it be? His Majesty doesn't want to see her, what should she do? Calculating the time, it should be...!

Concubine Yu twirled her handkerchief nervously, "Eunuch Gao, why doesn't His Majesty see me?"

The broth was flawless, and she was sent back without knowing anything about it.

Her eyes narrowed, and she felt a surge of anxiety. Why had everything changed since she came back? What had happened?

…

Shen Tingyu took care of the injured Da Que'er, and Xun Anchi took her to find the tyrant, and finally found him in the study.

A distinctive knock on the door sounded, and Xin Hongying raised her icy eyelids. She clenched her large hands, quickly hiding the unfinished swing, and said slowly, "Come in."

An Chi put Shen Tingyu on the desk and left.

She glanced at Xin Hongying, walked up to him step by step, and sat down on the pile of books.

He raised his head and asked in a muffled voice, "Are you angry?"

Xin Hongying said coldly, "I am indeed very angry. Fairy, please stay away from me, lest you accidentally hurt me when I lose my mind."

After that, both of them fell silent.

"Fairy, why are you looking for me instead of watching that stupid bird?" Xin Hongying was the first to break the silent silence.

Shen Tingyu sat up slightly, she came to him with a purpose.

She said seriously, "I risked my identity to find a miracle doctor for your majesty and remove the poison. Your majesty should be happy, why are you so angry?"

Xin Hongying couldn't explain it clearly, but instinctively didn't want her to leave him.

Seeing that persuasion was useless, Shen Tingyu started to talk nonsense again, trying to change Xin Hongying's mind with benefits.

"Your Majesty's dragon energy is currently weak, and this fairy's cultivation speed is too slow. I believe that removing the poison will help this fairy speed up her cultivation."

This is her real purpose!

Xin Hongying narrowed his eyes, his heart sank, and he clenched the unfinished swing in his hand. He exerted a little force with his palm, and the swing instantly turned into pieces in his palm.

He laughed at himself.

Sure enough, the fairy is also worldly. She is just like everyone else, but she is still of use to him.

No one has ever treated him sincerely! It's all fake!

He had a splitting headache, and pressed his slender fingers against his brows to hide his slightly pale expression. Then he slowly closed his eyes and silently clenched the swing that he had shattered into sawdust with his internal force, refusing to let go.

Shen Tingyu was completely unaware and was still trying to persuade him: "By then, I won't have to worry about my identity being exposed and being feared as a voodoo doll. This fairy can also transform into a human form to help His Majesty, which is also a good thing for His Majesty."

No!

Xin Hongying suddenly opened her eyes. Although there was no emotion on her face, her nails were deeply dug into her palms.

In his mind, the fairy of the voodoo doll and the cold and beautiful fairy are different; they are not the same person.

Permanently transforming into a human form means that the gentle and lovely voodoo doll fairy who accompanies him day and night and is protected in his sleeves will completely disappear. This is undoubtedly bad news for him.

Xin Hongying's Adam's apple rolled, and his voice was low, but with a suppressed tremor: "So that's how it is!"

He hid his despicable thoughts deep in his heart, and an unusual light flashed quickly in his eyes.

Shen Tingyu didn’t know what kind of turbulent waves her words had set off in Xin Hongying’s heart.

She raised her head, the corners of her lips slightly raised, and a confident smile appeared on her face. She patted her chest earnestly and assured: "Your Majesty, you can rest assured. This fairy is still capable of protecting herself. Ordinary mortals cannot hurt me."

Seeing him staring at the ground with his eyes downcast, motionless, Shen Tingyu opened his big hands and waved, “Your Majesty, are you listening?”

Coming back to his senses, his gaze fell on her, and he was silent for a moment.

Xin Hongying suddenly smiled, touched her little head with her fingers, and said with a faint smile, "Fairy, don't think about it. I will never allow you and that bird to fly out of the palace!"

Shen Tingyu frowned, and the smile on her face faded a little bit. She said slowly: "Your Majesty, are you serious?"

Under her sharp gaze, Xin Hongying nodded slowly with an expressionless face.

Suddenly, she was filled with anger. She couldn't understand why he was still like this even though she had explained it so clearly.

She couldn't understand his eyes that were as dark and deep as a cold pond, so she pushed his hand away vigorously. Shen Tingyu stood up suddenly, her face puffed up, and she questioned harshly.

"Why?"
