Chapter 233: Be my only wife in this life
Pei Yu's words were not confident. Rather than a wish, it was a request.
Cheng Jin opened her mouth, but in the end, she did not say no.
Cheng Jin nodded and said, "Okay."
After seeing Cheng Jin's agreement, Pei Yu's face was filled with joy. He looked at Cheng Jin again and again, as if Cheng Jin had really fulfilled his wish for many years.
After Cheng Jin left Pei Yu's room, she prepared to go to bed. She had been talking to Pei Yu all day today, so she was not tired. It was not too late, so she was not too sleepy.
Cheng Jin lay on the bed thinking about everything that happened today. It was too dramatic, but Pei Yu adjusted his mood very quickly after knowing it. If it were Cheng Jin, I don't know how crazy he would be.
Cheng Jin couldn't sleep, so she didn't close her eyes at all, looking at the bed curtains to make herself sleepy.
A face suddenly appeared in front of her, which scared Cheng Jin so much that she wanted to sit up.
Before she sat up, she collided with the face that suddenly appeared. Fortunately, Chu Chengye dodged quickly, and the two of them just bumped into each other slightly. It didn't hurt much, it could only be considered that their foreheads touched each other.
Chu Chengye helped Cheng Jin up directly, with a smile on his face, rubbing Cheng Jin's head again and again.
"Does it hurt?"
Cheng Jin was scared. It didn't hurt, but she definitely blamed it. She bent her fingers and tapped Chu Chengye's forehead lightly.
"It's been two days. Are you really afraid that I will live longer?"
Cheng Jin's tapping didn't hurt or itch, and Chu Chengye couldn't get angry. He took off his shoes and sat next to Cheng Jin.
"You're not sleeping so late, are you waiting for me?"
Cheng Jin glanced at him and lay down directly, "I'm asleep."
Chu Chengye turned Cheng Jin's body to face him, "Why do you look unhappy? Did Pei Yu injustice you?"
Chu Chengye didn't know where the anger came from, and his emotions were a little agitated, "I'll go and ask him for his crime."
Cheng Jin pulled Chu Chengye's arm and pulled him over again, "No, where are you going in the middle of the night?"
Chu Chengye held Cheng Jin's hand with his backhand, "I should have told you to go back to the palace with me, and leave tomorrow."
Cheng Jin patted Chu Chengye's hand and smiled, "Just think about letting me go back."
Chu Chengye nodded, "Not bad."
Cheng Jin explained, "It's not because of Pei Yu, it's because of myself. There are some things I haven't figured out."
Cheng Jin stopped talking here and refused to say anything no matter how Chu Chengye asked.
Chu Chengye lay on his side, put his hand on his chest, and Cheng Jin felt the clear heartbeat coming from Chu Chengye's heart.
Chu Chengye said very seriously, "If it's because of me, maybe just saying it won't prove it. I want you to feel it, feel my heart, my behavior."
Cheng Jin didn't say anything, just stared into Chu Chengye's eyes. They couldn't see each other's eyes clearly in the dark, but they could feel each other's special determination.
Chu Chengye lowered his head and played with Cheng Jin's hand. His voice suddenly became softer and more casual. "If it's because of Pei Yu, then don't think about it. I'll take you back to the palace tomorrow."
Cheng Jin laughed softly after hearing what Chu Chengye said. She pulled out her finger and pushed Chu Chengye. "Nerve."
Cheng Jin was silent for a moment, and then told Chu Chengye everything that happened today. In one day, she told two people that she was not the original owner. Cheng Jin felt guilty.
In this era, people who say these things are probably regarded as crazy.
But Chu Chengye didn't even hesitate after hearing what he said, and the hand holding Cheng Jin seemed to be shaking.
Chu Chengye stuttered, "So, so, you are..."
Chu Chengye talked for a long time but didn't say anything. Cheng Jin got close to Chu Chengye, and she said "um" softly, "It's what you think."
"What about Pei Yu?"
Cheng Jin was a little puzzled why Chu Chengye wanted to compete with Pei Yu at this time, "What's wrong with you? Can't you hear the point?"
Obviously, the most unbelievable thing Cheng Jin said was that she came from a book and was not from this world at all, but Chu Chengye didn't care at all. He only thought that Cheng Jin chose him, just like drinking fake wine.
Cheng Jin shook Chu Chengye, asking him to sober up. "I said, I'm not Cheng Jin, aren't you surprised?"
Chu Chengye gently hugged Cheng Jin into his arms, his voice was particularly firm, "I know who you are, you are Cheng Jin."
Cheng Jin smiled and said, "I am indeed called this name."
Chu Chengye said, "Then who you are, what does it matter? I only know that you are the Cheng Jin I know, my noble concubine."
Cheng Jin interrupted Chu Chengye: "Logically, I actually..."
Chu Chengye stopped Cheng Jin from continuing to speak, "Yes, but soon I won't be."
Cheng Jin immediately reacted and pushed Chu Chengye, "What do you mean? I haven't enjoyed my glory and wealth yet?"
Cheng Jin pretended to be surprised, "You want to remove my position as a concubine?"
Chu Chengye continued to follow Cheng Jin, "Yes, I want to remove your position as a concubine."
"I will make you the empress and the only wife of my life."
Cheng Jin declined politely: "It's so good to be a concubine. I can enjoy the glory and wealth without taking responsibility. I like to be a hands-off manager. Being an empress still requires managing the harem.
It's so tiring." "I have no choice."
Chu Chengye said: "After the autumn hunt, I will let the people of Qintianjian choose an auspicious day to hold the ceremony of sealing the palace."
Chu Chengye thought of something and his tone was particularly calm. "I don't know where Chu Huaian has escaped to now. I'm afraid something else will happen."
Cheng Jin knew what Chu Chengye was busy with these two days. Chu Huaian did such a thing and just ran away. Chu Chengye must catch him and give an explanation to the people of the world.
Chu Huaian is in too much danger now. He has a ruthless strategist like Yan Zheng by his side, and his uncle Xu Fenghui controls a large number of Xu family troops. Although Chu Chengye has reduced a lot of his military power, the ones Xu Fenghui gave him are just those he put on the surface. Chu Chengye doesn't know if there are hidden things behind it, and he has no way to find out for the time being.
People from the Northern Frontier have already entered the territory of Southern Qi in Qingzhou, and it is not known whether Chu Huaian has colluded with Southern Qi.
Because of all this, Chu Chengye could only give Cheng Jin a stable atmosphere after everything was over.
Cheng Jin patted Chu Chengye's palm to comfort him, "It's okay, the law is vast and nothing can escape it. He will be punished for doing such a thing."
Chu Chengye nodded, "After the Queen Mother heard about Chu Huaian's affairs, she came to me several times to test my opinion. I know that the Queen Mother favors Chu Huaian, but I can't just ignore everything."
Cheng Jin didn't know how to tell Chu Chengye about everything that happened in the book about Xu Jilin's treatment of Chu Chengye. She used all her power and connections to help Chu Huaian to seize the throne. When did she care about Chu Chengye?
It was only when Chu Chengye was dying that she looked at him with extra pity.
