Chapter 136 The acting skills of a scumbag
She did not alarm the maids and went straight to Gu Huaizhi's room.
Gu Huaizhi was lying on the bed, his brows full of fatigue and anxiety.
Shen Qingyu called softly: "Prince!" Tears could not stop falling.
Gu Huaizhi saw Shen Qingyu suddenly appear, and his eyebrows and eyes lit up: "Qingyu, is it really you, or am I hallucinating again?"
Shen Qingyu walked over quickly, but finally stopped half a step away from Gu Huaizhi.
She lowered her eyes, pinched the corner of her clothes and said, "Prince, it's me. I heard that you had a fever after kneeling in the palace for too long. I was really worried, so I came to take a look."
"The housekeeper is really something. He just sent things when I asked him to, but he told you everything. It's nothing. I'm fine. It's just that I don't have the ability to save you!"
Gu Huaizhi became more and more self-blaming, and punched the edge of the bed angrily.
Shen Qingyu finally couldn't help it, grabbed his hand and said, "Prince, this is not your fault! I am very grateful for your kindness."
Shen Qingyu held Gu Huaizhi's hand, and felt her cheeks flushed and her heart pounding.
But she suddenly remembered that these hands belonged to Gu Huaizhi's charming maid, and she felt a little disgusted and couldn't help but let go of the hands.
Gu Huaizhi didn't expect this. He was ready to strike while the iron was hot and completely conquer Shen Qingyu. Shen Qingyu suddenly let go, which caught him off guard.
"I knew you were angry, but it's also my fault that I have no ability. I can only watch you being exiled to a barren land and I can't do anything about it.
If Su Xiaoxiao hadn't given our gold mountain to the dog emperor, I would have used gold to make the countries in the four borders of Dashuo send troops to fight him to the death. What a pity..."
Gu Huaizhi was deliberately being sentimental, but when he thought of his piles of gold bricks and the entire gold mountain that had not yet been mined, he felt so distressed that his eyes were red.
Shen Qingyu thought he was just feeling guilty for not being able to save her, and she was even more moved.
She had lived for thousands of years, surrounded by calculations and betrayals. Even her biological mother handed her over to the Demon Queen to be a saint for the sake of profit. This was the first time someone was willing to pay for her.
She said excitedly: "Grand Prince, don't be like this. You know, ordinary people can't hurt me. But you, how can you go to the emperor? If he gets suspicious of you, it will be even more inconvenient for you to act in the future."
"How can I care so much? As long as I can save you, I am willing to bow to him. Unfortunately... I am so useless. I can't even protect my beloved. What kind of man am I!"
Gu Huaizhi fell into self-blame again.
Shen Qingyu felt that something in her heart was ignited, burning.
Did Gu Huaizhi just say that she was his beloved? He said that unconsciously. Because of this, Shen Qingyu felt that the words were precious.
When treating Gu Huaizhi's injury before, the two of them were indeed somewhat ambiguous, but no one broke the window paper.
Although Shen Qingyu was pleased with Gu Huaizhi, she was afraid of the well rope after being bitten by a snake once, and she was not sure of Gu Huaizhi's feelings. It was because of this that she got rid of Gu Huaizhi's maid out of jealousy.
Shen Qingyu had lived for thousands of years, but this was the first time she felt moved. She was shy, lowered her head and said nothing.
All of this naturally fell into Gu Huaizhi's eyes. When Shen Qingyu entered the palace, every word she heard was designed by him in advance.
The sentence that she couldn't even protect her beloved was deliberately prepared by him.
He had seen that Shen Qingyu was ruthless and decisive, but in fact she was extremely insecure. Like him, she longed for warmth and love. He didn't care what Shen Qingyu was. As long as she could be used by him, it was worth his time.
Gu Huaizhi took Shen Qingyu's hand and said, "Qingyu, I am incompetent and cannot save you from the sea of suffering. I asked the butler to send you something with great fanfare, just to let people know that you are someone I care about. Even if I am insignificant, I am still a prince. They won't make things difficult for you on the road."
"You..." Shen Qingyu didn't know what to say.
She was still wondering how Gu Huaizhi could suddenly become so stupid. He should have sent something quietly. Why did he make such a big fuss? It turned out that he did it on purpose.
Shen Qingyu has been completely conquered by Gu Huaizhi. Now, even if she is asked to die for Gu Huaizhi, she will not hesitate.
"Qingyu, what should I do if you leave?" Gu Huaizhi was moved and held Shen Qingyu in his arms.
"I really want to go to Southern Xinjiang with you. I don't want revenge for my mother's murder or the great cause of the country."
Shen Qingyu was moved, but how could she watch Gu Huaizhi give up everything for her?
Moreover, if she did not help Gu Huaizhi ascend the throne and let the script return to its original track, she would have to start over again. She would not be able to get rid of the identity of the Holy Maiden of the Demon Cult and would be in danger of being sacrificed at any time.
She broke free from Gu Huaizhi's arms and said angrily: "First Prince, you have great ambitions and you are the chosen one of heaven. How can you be so sentimental? If you really want to save me, you should regroup and get rid of the dog emperor and Su Xiaoxiao's family as soon as possible."
"But you..." Gu Huaizhi's eyes were full of heartache.
Shen Qingyu said with a bit of shyness: "Don't worry, eldest prince. I'm sure you have already discovered that I am different from ordinary people. Now, I will tell you the truth. I come from another time and space and have abilities that ordinary people don't have.
Even if I go to Southern Xinjiang, I can come back openly. Because my mission in this world is to help you ascend to the throne. Don't worry, I will come back."
She only said half of it. Her mission was to prevent the awakening of the consciousness in Su Xiaoxiao's body, but she was too greedy and wanted the space bracelet that Shen Qingyu easily got in the storybook.
With that space, her spiritual power will increase greatly. It is said that there are many ancient magic tools in it. If she gets that space, let alone the throne of Dashuo, even the really good demon world will be hers.
Unfortunately, she was defeated repeatedly, and the bracelet space was still hanging on Su Xiaoxiao's neck. Fortunately,
although Su Xiaoxiao has a lot of skills, she doesn't remember things thousands of years ago very clearly. Now she is still a child and can't become a big shot.
Gu Huaizhi was ecstatic after hearing Shen Qingyu's words. He knew that he was born to be an emperor.
Otherwise, how could a fairy-like figure like Shen Qingyu come to help him specially.
"Qingyu, I feel relieved when you say this. Just tell me what you need me to do."
Shen Qingyu smiled faintly, took out a ring and said: "I don't know what method Su Xiaoxiao used, but nothing that happened could escape her eyes. I have a magic weapon. If you carry it with you, it will automatically form a barrier. From now on, we will be much safer."
