Chapter 15: One Month Wasted
"We could have succeeded, but a man showed up along the way and the city guards happened to pass by, so we didn't succeed." Yue Shan said.
"Who is that person? Find out for me."
Who is so bold as to ruin his plans? He must be made to suffer the consequences.
The next day, Rongyu woke up from her sleep. The wound was bandaged well, but it still hurt a little.
The person sitting on the edge of the bed fell asleep on the edge of the bed at some point. He was as white as jade and as smooth as water. Not only did he have beautiful facial features, but his skin was also beautiful and white. He was simply like a piece of jade.
When I open my eyes and see such a good-looking person, I feel good for the whole day.
I don’t know if Ye Chenyuan noticed someone was looking at him, but he almost woke up in shock.
Their eyes met, first in surprise and then in joy.
"You're awake now. How do you feel? Does the wound still hurt?"
Rongyu nodded, looking pitiful.
"I'd like a drink of water."
Ye Chenyuan hurriedly went to pour water, gently helped Rongyu up, and handed the water to him.
There were calluses between his fingers, which must have been left by holding the sword. Ye Chenyuan's heart palpitated at that moment, and it seemed as if a dragonfly skimming the water left a mark.
Rongyu has a very small mole on his right eyebrow, which is difficult to find without careful observation or from a distance. Ye Chenyuan's angle is just right, and it looks very good with his eyes.
"Your Highness," Butler Wang walked in through the door, "Prince Jing is here."
Why did he come here when no one had been sent to inform him of Rong Yu’s injury?
When Rongyu heard Ye Chenyin coming, he lifted the quilt and wanted to get out of bed.
He didn't go home last night. I wonder if the villain thought he had run away, or if he was contacting some accomplice.
Rongyu was frightened when he thought of Ye Chenyin getting angry.
"Your wounds haven't healed yet, so don't move around. Rest assured, just stay here and recover. I'll go talk to him."
Without waiting for Rong Yu to speak, he turned and left.
We can't wait, he has to talk to him himself, otherwise he will be dead soon.
Ye Chenyuan walked quickly, and by the time Rong Yu arrived, there was already tension between them.
The relationship between these two has always been neither close nor distant. Because of the sense of distance, their interactions are just superficial, and there has never been any brotherhood.
This is the first time that Ye Chenyin has come to the door on his own initiative.
"He was injured while saving me. I won't let you take him away until his injury is healed." Ye Chenyuan rarely put away his smile, adding a bit of unquestionable dominance.
Is the male protagonist's attribute about to rise?
He's even more handsome when he's not smiling.
Rong Yu listened to their conversation in the yard. Although they appeared polite to each other, they had already been stabbing each other for several rounds.
"Your Highness." Rong Yu leaned against the door frame, looking extremely weak.
Ye Chenyuan was still angry about Rong Yu, and the anger in his eyes was visible to the naked eye, but when he heard Rong Yu's voice, his anger suddenly subsided and he walked up to Rong Yu with great concern.
"Why did you come out? Didn't I tell you to stay here peacefully?"
"It's all right now. I've been bothering you for a long time. It's time to say goodbye."
Rongyu's face was pale, his lips were bloodless, and he looked very weak.
Ye Chenyin untied his cloak and put it on Rongyu, holding her in his arms and asking softly, "How is it?"
Rong Yu nodded.
"I won't bother you, my Royal Brother. I'll take you away."
After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped.
Ye Chenyuan looked at Rongyu, his eyes full of concern.
"If you don't want to leave, I won't let anyone take you away."
Rong Yu knew that Ye Chenyin had a bad reputation, and the conversation just now was probably misunderstood by Ye Chenyuan, but now was not the time to explain.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I'm fine."
Ye Chenyin's body temperature dropped suddenly, and the impatience in his eyes had reached its peak.
He picked up Rong Yu horizontally, walked past Ye Chenyuan and strode towards the door.
Seeing that he had that murderous look on his face again, Rong Yu was already praying for blessings from her ancestors in her heart.
"Your Highness?" Rong Yu called out cautiously and softly.
Ye Chenyin didn't reply but looked at him sideways.
Fortunately, it’s not that he completely ignores me.
'Darkness value 100%, favorability 20%, trust 10%.'
Rongyu burst into tears, all the chrysanthemums she had contributed for a month were wasted!
After returning to the mansion, Ye Chenyin called a doctor to help Rongyu choose.
Shen Qinghe treated the wound very well, so there was no need to look at it again.
The doctor gave a few simple instructions and went to boil the medicine.
"You went to so much trouble to leave the house just to save him?"
Ye Chenyin's eyes were calm, but his tone was unusually cold.
He hated deception and betrayal the most. If there was no reasonable explanation today, he would never be able to leave the house in his lifetime.
Rong Yu heard this and realized that this couldn't be true.
"No, I really wanted to go out for a walk and eat some snacks. Saving Prince Yan was just a coincidence. I don't know how I happened to be there. I didn't want to get involved. Your Highness knows that I am afraid of death, but he is your brother, the only relative who has no hostility towards you."
"I was just impulsive and went up there without thinking. Your Highness, I really didn't mean it."
The tone is pleading and the expression is just right, so what he said is clear, and you must believe it.
Ye Chenyin looked at him quietly, as if examining him, trying to find a flaw in him.
Seeing that he didn't react, Rong Yu accidentally touched the wound with her hand, causing her to feel horrible pain.
Ye Chenyin finally softened his heart and walked to the bedside to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Your Highness, please come closer. I have something to tell you."
Seeing the sincere smile, Ye Chenyin bent down and whispered in his ear, half believing it and half disbelieving it.
A soft lip touched her cheek, and the tip of her ear suddenly turned red.
Ye Chenyin looked at him in surprise, then reached out to tuck the quilt in for him and whispered in his ear, "If you don't behave, I won't care if you're injured or not."
"I was wrong. I was wrong."
Rongyu quickly admitted his mistake, and Ye Chenyin laughed out loud in comfort.
After Rongyu fell asleep, Ye Chenyin returned to normal and then went out.
"Where has he been?"
Ye Chenyin's voice was cold, without a trace of emotion.
The warriors kneeled beside him, their faces calm and respectful.
"I only went to South Street."
South Street is the only way from the Imperial Palace back to Prince Yan's Mansion. Going to South Street alone means that he really went there on purpose to save someone.
Ye Chenyuan frowned slightly, and his hands on his back tightened again and again. His mood at this moment was indescribable.
It was winter, and even with the sun the warmth was very meager, and at this moment even that little bit of warmth was covered up.
Siyu raised her eyes slightly and glanced at her master. Her face was expressionless and it was hard to tell what she meant. One could only tell that she was angry.
"Draw Ye Chenming's picture book based on his face, print 10,000 copies and distribute them," Ye Chenyin paused, "and say that the King of Xiang saw that everyone was really bored, so we need to add some fun."
"And you..." He said to the death warrior kneeling on the ground: "Fifty strokes of the cane."
Siyu hesitated and finally did not speak.
The assassin was also innocent. He wanted to wait for the killer to kill King Yan before taking action, but he didn't expect Rong Yu to directly block it for him.
