Chapter 221: Life is in danger, she will come eventually

After standing up, Cheng Jin kept staring at Pei Yu's face, and asked anxiously: "Are you okay? I didn't mean it."

Pei Yu frowned as if he was in unbearable pain. Cheng Jin became even more anxious and stepped forward to pull Pei Yu's quilt, "Does it hurt? Did you touch the wound? Do you want to call a doctor?"

Pei Yu said: "I'm the doctor, right?"

Cheng Jin patted Pei Yu's arm, "Why are you still joking at this time? Does it hurt?"

Pei Yu couldn't hold back his laughter anymore, "Actually, you didn't sit on my lap."

"What?"

Cheng Jin seemed to not understand what Pei Yu said, she stared in disbelief.

"You had a stern face before, just wanting Xiao Jin to smile. Was it because what I said was too boring?"

Pei Yu did not look at Cheng Jin's eyes when he spoke, and he looked aggrieved. It was obviously a joke made by Pei Yu, but Cheng Jin was embarrassed to be angry.

Cheng Jin pulled up the corners of her mouth and showed a standard smile, "Are you satisfied?"

After laughing, Cheng Jin lowered her eyes and said, "You are injured like this, and it's because of me, how can I still laugh?"

"It has nothing to do with Xiao Jin."

Pei Yu shook his head.

Cheng Jin retorted after hearing Pei Yu's words, "Why is it nothing to do with it? If you hadn't stood in front of me, I would probably be lying here now."

When Cheng Jin said this, her voice was worried, and her eyes were full of moisture when she looked at Pei Yu, and she was almost about to cry in the next second.

Pei Yu raised his hand and touched Cheng Jin's hair, muttering, "It was me."

Cheng Jin naturally didn't believe it, thinking that Pei Yu said these words just to comfort herself because he was afraid that she would bear too much burden in her heart.

She was only a little distance away from the tip of the knife at that time, and Pei Yu was right beside her. How could she not know what was going on?

Pei Yu could feel that his abdomen was still aching, and he swallowed the words that wanted to come out again.

He didn't want Cheng Jin to feel guilty, but he didn't want Cheng Jin to have any contact with him from now on.

Until now, he has never regretted it, and even felt fortunate that God gave him such a good opportunity, an opportunity for Cheng Jin to feel at ease and have to stay by his side.

The situation was so urgent at that time. Seeing the knife so close to Cheng Jin, Pei Yu was indeed anxious, but the wounds on his body had nothing to do with Cheng Jin or that man. He

stabbed himself.

In a moment of urgency, he became selfish when he saw Cheng Jin's nervous expression towards him.

What was the point of stabbing himself? As long as Cheng Jin's eyes were still on him, it seemed that everything was worth it.

Especially now that Cheng Jin was still voluntarily looking after him in Pei's house, it was beyond his expectations.

Pei Yu lay on the bed and looked at Cheng Jin beside him. His heart was filled with a great sense of satisfaction, as if this was enough.

When Cheng Jin left to prepare the room, someone pushed the door open to Pei Yu's room.

Pei Yu saw him and gave him a look, and the man understood and came forward to help Pei Yu sit up.

"Sir, are you sure you don't want to arrange someone to take care of the room?"

Pei Yu held the teacup that was difficult to touch in front of Cheng Jin with extra ease. Pei Yu restrained the smile he had shown to Cheng Jin before and said lightly: "Zuo Yi, did she stay?"

Zuo Yi nodded, "Miss Cheng delivered a letter to the palace, and then she cleaned up the room next door. She shouldn't leave today."

Pei Yu looked at the shaking water in the cup and muttered to himself: "Just today?"

Pei Yu did not reply to what he said just now. Zuo Yi didn't know Pei Yu's true thoughts, so he could only bite the bullet and ask again.

"Miss Cheng doesn't know how to take care of others after all. When Miss Cheng rests, can you arrange two people to guard outside the door to take care of the master?"

"The master is seriously injured. He should get better soon so that he can accompany Miss Cheng."

Pei Yu didn't listen to Zuo Yi's words. Instead, he threw the cup in his hand and lay down.

"It's better if she gets better slowly. If she gets better quickly, how can she stay longer?"

Zuo Yi thought of the time when Pei Yu just woke up after hearing Pei Yu's words.

The Pei Mansion is so big, how could there be no one to take care of it? It's just that Pei Yu made special arrangements.

When he just woke up and saw only two servants beside him, Pei Yu couldn't believe it.

Pei Yu didn't believe that Cheng Jin would be so cruel that she didn't even look at him because she was angry.

He was about to sit up and get out of bed, ignoring the injuries on his body. Zuo Yi quickly stopped him and prevented Pei Yu from causing secondary injuries. He finally stopped Pei Yu and made him sit on the bed.

Pei Yu's eyes were looking around randomly, as if he was looking for someone. Pei Yu suddenly grabbed Zuo Yi's sleeve tightly, like a drowning man trying to grab a floating log.

"Where's she? Where's Xiao Jin?"

Pei Yu's voice was very urgent, so urgent that his voice was trembling.

Zuo Yi had been with Pei Yu for so long, so he naturally knew who Pei Yu was talking about, who he had found, and who he wanted to see.

He waved his hand to let everyone in the room go out, and then told Pei Yu the truth, "When Miss Cheng arrived, the doctor told her that she was fine. She had talked to a woman outside, and after settling the woman down, she left with the emperor."

The three words "left" were like sharp swords stabbing into Pei Yu's body. He didn't know if it was the pain in the wound or the pain in his heart that made him unable to move. He sat there for a long time.

Zuo Yi noticed Pei Yu's situation and could only comfort him, "Your Excellency also knows that this matter is so serious. Miss Cheng must have been tripped because of dealing with important matters. Wait a little longer, she will come eventually."

Pei Yu didn't know whether she would come.

Pei Yu opened his mouth, as if trying to persuade himself, "How long has it been?"

Zuo Yi glanced at the setting sun and said, "About five hours, and it's almost time for the treatment to be done."

Pei Yu nodded helplessly and asked Zuo Yi to leave. He was not sure whether Cheng Jin would come.

Pei Yu thought of something. Cheng Jin didn't even look at him because she heard that he was fine. What if he was dying?

Pei Yu was lying on the bed, his hands touched the bandaged wound.

His life was in danger, Cheng Jin would come, right?

Pei Yu secretly exerted force on his hands, repeating the same question in a self-torturing manner.

Pei Yu was proficient in medicine, so he naturally knew where it hurt the most and where it looked the most serious.

He was ruthless, and the force on his hands was even harder. Pei Yu was in so much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat, his body was shaking uncontrollably, but his hands still did not stop moving.

The severe pain seemed to tell Pei Yu that he was dying.

Would it be better to die? Wouldn't it be better to get more attention from Cheng Jin, and have a unique and indelible place in Cheng Jin's heart?

If that's the case, what's so scary about death?

When Pei Yu's heart was about to stop beating, the door was pushed open.

Pei Yu felt that the aura of death that was pressing on him seemed to have disappeared.

His redemption had come.
