Chapter 72 After Abandoning the Innocent Mermaid 10 In Fu Wei's eyes, I...
The next second, the debris on the ground turned into powder. Just when everyone held their breath, thinking that Pei Xinghui was finally going to take action against Fu Wei, this young and promising imperial general slowly squatted down in front of Fu Wei.
The hands that were used to control the mecha and hold the gun lifted up Fu Wei's slender ankle.
"Does it hurt?" Pei Xinghui looked up at Fu Wei, frowning with a hint of worry.
Fu Wei said calmly: "It's okay."
"That means it hurts." Looking at the waiter not far away, Pei Xinghui said, "Please get the medicine box."
Seeing this, the waiter nodded repeatedly and brought the medicine box over.
Then Pei Xinghui squatted on the ground, held Fu Wei's ankle, and began to apply medicine to Fu Wei.
Fu Wei didn't refuse. Her beautiful eyes slowly scanned the quiet surroundings, and she frowned and asked, "Look at what we are doing."
Everyone then withdrew their gazes and dispersed, no longer surrounding Fu Yu.
"Isn't it said that Pei Xinghui and the Second Prince have a good relationship? Why doesn't that seem to me?"
"I don't think so either. Just looking at Pei Xinghui's attitude towards the Second Prince, I feel like the Second Prince is the one who's paying the price."
"Could it be that there was a hidden story back then? So what exactly happened then?"
"This royal family is really a mess."
"Hush, keep your voice down. Didn't you see how horrible the Second Prince's face was? He really wanted to eat General Pei and the others."
Fu Yu's face was really ugly. Over the years, he rarely lost his composure in public, but whenever he met Fu Wei, he couldn't help but get furious.
His good brother has become a cripple and has no mental strength. There is no one to support him. Instead of staying in the mansion and waiting to die, why does he come out and steal his limelight again and again?
Even Pei Xinghui is like this now.
Fu Yu was almost angry to death.
Fu Wei sat there, supporting her chin, seeing everyone's little thoughts clearly, and the corners of her lips curled up in an extremely ironic arc.
"General Pei, in a scene like this, I wonder how many people are rushing to curry your favor, and you're just here helping me apply medicine. Don't you feel ashamed?"
Pei Xinghui paused and said softly, "You are someone I cherish, how could you feel ashamed?"
Fu smiled but didn't say anything.
After Pei Xinghui treated Fu Wei's injuries, he sat on the sofa next to Fu Wei.
Fu Wei casually threw him a wet tissue: "Wipe it off."
Pei Xinghui took the wet wipes, wiped his fingers that were soaked in the medicine, and his eyes fell on Fu Wei's profile.
The lights from the banquet shone on Fu Wei's face, a gentle warm color. The young man's thin back was lazily leaning on the sofa, sitting alone in a corner, completely different from the laughter and joy from Fu Yu's side, like the boundary between light and shadow, divided into two ends.
Mingming Fu Wei should have grown up with everyone's support, but in this era that worships force and power, he can only be confined to the corner.
"How have you been these years?"
Fu Wei asked him back, "What do you think, General Pei?"
The young man's face was cold and indifferent, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.
Pei Xinghui then realized that he had asked a stupid question. If Fu Wei was doing well, why was she sitting alone in an empty corner?
If Fu Wei was living a good life, why would she look so haggard now?
If Fu Wei was living a good life, how could those noble families dare to talk about him in front of Fu Wei.
Everyone remembers what happened back then, Fu Wei remembers it, and he remembers it too.
Pei Xinghui's heart suddenly twitched, and an indescribable sour pain spread from his heart to his limbs.
"I'm sorry." After a long time, Pei Xinghui said this.
Fu Wei chuckled and rubbed his temples. He didn't want to listen to this nonsense, he just had a headache.
So Fu Wei said to Ai Ruide beside her: "It's too noisy in here, push me out to get some fresh air."
Ai Ruide said respectfully: "Yes, Your Highness."
As Ared pushed Fuwei away from the lively banquet, the lights and noise faded away from him, and he was pushed into the dark night outside.
Pei Xinghui stood up and followed.
Fu Wei and his companions came to the garden of the imperial palace, where there were endless fields of roses. Countless gorgeous roses swayed in the night, like enchanting beauties.
"Fu Wei." Pei Xinghui hurried over and called out in a low voice.
Fu Wei turned around: "Why did you come out?"
Pei Xinghui pursed his lips and said, "I want to talk to you, okay?"
Fu Wei looked at him, seemingly thinking. After a long moment, he finally nodded, then said to Ayred, "Please leave for a moment. I'll talk to General Pei."
"Yes." Ered left.
They were the only two people left in the garden.
Pei Xinghui whispered, "Fuwei, I'm sorry."
Fu Wei reached out and plucked a rose, her voice full of sarcasm as she said, "You're truly sorry for me, Pei Xinghui. It's you who made me what I am now. I'm already miserable enough. My father hates me, my brother wants me dead, and I don't even have the ability to protect myself. And yet you, the person I once loved the most, still want to bully me like this."
As she said this, Fu Wei's eyes had turned red unknowingly. At the same time, the rose thorn pierced the palm of Fu Wei's hand, and blood slowly flowed down through her fingers and dripped onto the dark green leaves.
Pei Xinghui stared at Fu Wei's hand and wanted to persuade Fu Wei, but was stopped by his eyes.
"Pei Xinghui, since you've already done it, you shouldn't regret it. Saying sorry now will only make me feel ironic."
When they were young, Pei Xinghui and Fu Wei were in the same school. Pei Xinghui came from an imperial military family and was considered Fu Wei's senior.
By chance, they gradually got to know each other, and Pei Xinghui fell in love with Fu Wei as they got along better and better.
So later, Pei Xinghui began to pursue Fu Wei madly and pursued him relentlessly.
This pursuit lasted for a whole year, and Fu Wei was moved, but no one would have thought that the day after Fu Wei agreed to be with Pei Xinghui.
The rebels broke into the capital planet, and Fu Wei and Fu Yu were trapped in the sea of fire, their lives in danger.
Pei Xinghui controlled his father's mecha and went to the palace in the fire to search for Fu Wei's whereabouts. After several twists and turns, he found Fu Wei before the energy of the mecha was about to run out.
It was Pei Xinghui who saved Fu Wei, and it was Pei Xinghui who gave up Fu Yu. Fu Wei never lived alone.
Unexpectedly, when Pei Xinghui was driving the mecha back, he regretted not saving Fu Yu, so he chose to go back. However, on the way back, he was ambushed by the rebels, and Fu Wei's leg was almost crippled.
Fu Wei was in a coma for three months in this accident.
When I woke up, the outside world had changed drastically.
He became a heartless brother who abandoned his own brother in order to survive, and was cursed by everyone.
Pei Xinghui became a hero who saved people from danger.
That's ridiculous.
It's really ridiculous.
Fu Wei was almost heartbroken at the time. He looked at Pei Xinghui, who had been guarding his bed for three months, and asked him with a pale face, "Why don't you explain? You obviously came here to save me."
Pei Xinghui fell silent.
But even if he didn't say anything, Fu Wei knew what he was thinking.
Because Pei Xinghui was only one month away from graduation at that time, with the title of "hero", he could naturally join the army and serve. Under the protection of the Pei family, he would have a bright future.
But if Pei Xinghui tells others that he was trying to save himself, the title of hero will be taken away, and instead, the title of the eldest young master of the Pei family who loves the eldest prince as if he were his own flesh and blood and is willing to risk his life to save him will be seen, and it will become a romantic affair in the past.
In the face of an important future, this romance seems so insignificant.
So Pei Xinghui chose to conceal the truth and chose his future.
Fu Wei tried to defend himself, but no one believed him.
People only want to see what they want to see and never pay attention to the truth of things.
Fu Yu has extraordinary mental strength. How did Fu Wei, a disabled person, compete with Fu Yu?
Pei Xinghui's eyes were red, full of regret and torment. He knelt on one knee in front of Fu Wei, begging for a look from Fu Wei.
"Fuwei, I will make it up to you. I will give you whatever you want."
Fu Wei sarcastically said, "I want my legs to be in good condition, so they don't have to be in unbearable pain every time it's cloudy or rainy. Can you do that?"
Pei Xinghui felt a pain in his chest, clenched his fists, and couldn't utter a word.
Seeing this, Fu Wei continued, "I still want to live a good life, but the doctor says I won't live past 23. Can you save my life?"
A tear fell from the corner of Pei Xinghui's eye, but he could do nothing. This was what really made Pei Xinghui heartbroken.
Fu Wei sarcastically said, "Look, Pei Xinghui, Master Pei, General Pei, what can you do to help me? What can you do to compensate me? You didn't even dare to stand up and defend me when I was bullied. Your love is like a rat in the gutter, hiding from the light."
"My legs are broken, and I'm dying. And what do you want from me? Forgiveness?"
The general who had never changed his expression in the face of life and death in front of the interstellar pirates completely collapsed at this moment.
Countless beautiful moments of their past interactions emerged in his mind. Those memories that once made him sweet eventually turned into sharp thorns that pierced his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe.
After an unknown amount of time, Pei Xinghui finally spoke again, a pale smile on his face:
"Fuwei, I won't let anyone bully you anymore. This time, I'll keep my word."
Fu Wei looked calm and indifferent.
"I will help you," Pei Xinghui continued, feeling a pang in his heart. "If you are sick, I will find a doctor for you. If you can't walk, I will be your legs. If they bully you, I will kill them. I will help you sit on the throne of the empire, and I will make sure no one dares to bully you or look down on you again."
"You will become the most honorable person in the entire empire. This is the greatest compensation I can make for you. I don't ask you to forgive me, I just hope you can live well."
The rose in her hand suddenly fell to the ground, and the beautiful petals scattered all over the ground. The blood-stained fingers stroked Pei Xinghui's handsome face, and her eyes were full of sadness.
Pei Xinghui looked up at him, eyes full of affection and cherishment.
Fu Wei said softly, "Pei Xinghui, tell me, can I trust you?"
Pei Xinghui held Fu Wei's hand, trembling, and said word by word: "I will prove it to you."
Fu Wei didn't answer Pei Xinghui anymore, but just said lightly: "It's late, go back."
Pei Xinghui said cautiously, "I don't have a fixed residence on the capital planet yet. Can I stay in your mansion first?"
Fu Wei: "Okay."
My broken heart has been broken into millions of pieces tonight, but now because of this sentence, it has come back to life in an instant, and spring is in full bloom.
Fu Wei agreed, so does that mean he still has a chance?
There is still a chance to compensate Fu Wei, a chance to win back his heart, and a chance to be with him.
Pei Xinghui: "I don't know where Ai Ruide is going. It should take a while. Can I take you back?"
Before Fu Wei could answer, a familiar voice suddenly came from a distance, "Fu Wei——" The blond, blue-eyed Neptune began waving at Fu Wei from a distance, with a purely happy smile on his face, and ran to Fu Wei like a child.
Fu Wei's cold face was instantly covered with a gentle smile, like a willow branch pulling out a note in the coldest days of winter, and then the whole world, the ice and snow melted, all things revived, and the peach blossoms and willows bloomed.
"Why are you here? Didn't I ask you to wait for me at the mansion?"
Neptune bent down and hugged Fu Wei, nuzzled his neck, and said with a smile, "I missed you, so I came to see you."
Fu Wei smiled: "I miss you too."
Neptune didn't believe it and stared at Pei Xinghui beside him with a fierce look: "You are lying. Aide just told me that you have been talking to this person all the time and have no time to think about me."
Fu Wei laughed dumbly: "Don't talk nonsense."
Neptune hugged Fu Wei's waist, with a domineering look as if he was asserting his sovereignty. He raised his chin towards Pei Xinghui and said proudly, "I'm not talking nonsense. Then tell me, who is he?"
Fu Wei was helpless: "You, you..."
Nie Pudu tugged at Fu Wei's clothes and said coquettishly, "Tell me quickly, tell me, I really want to know."
Pei Xinghui felt bitter in his mouth. He had never seen anyone so close to Fu Wei. Even when Fu Wei agreed to be in a relationship with him, she was still cold and distant to him. They had never even held hands.
Not to mention, like what happened before him, Fu Wei openly admitted that she missed him, and he was even accused of hiding in Fu Wei's arms and acting coquettishly.
His heart was broken and he was filled with endless jealousy, but amidst his jealousy, there was still a bit of hope.
Maybe Fu Wei still likes him, maybe he still admits himself, so he stared at Fu Wei closely.
In Fu Wei's eyes, who am I to him?
