Chapter 259 There is a cure
Chu Chengye was sure that Cheng Jin would not listen to him so easily. If Cheng Jin could change her mind with just a few words, she would not be like that.
She was thinking about how to die, but she would not easily involve other people's lives. This was the only way Chu Chengye could control Cheng Jin.
He would not let Cheng Jin get hurt, even if he had to force her to live well.
After Chu Chengye left, Cheng Jin sat alone in the house in a dilemma. Although she could see a little now, she was still the same as a blind person. Chu Chengye was determined not to let her go out. As long as she moved, several people would kneel on the ground behind her.
Cheng Jin was really helpless, but if she had to watch Chu Chengye die for her, how could she do it?
Chu Chengye has left now. In addition to handling official business, all kinds of bad thoughts have crept into Cheng Jin's mind.
Now she has been drinking Chu Chengye's blood antidote for several days. Chu Chengye is in danger of sudden death at any time. Thinking of this, Cheng Jin can't sit still anymore.
She dismissed everyone. She lay on the bed and groped her way to the window at the back of the room. As soon as she touched the window, before she opened it, the door was pushed open.
Cheng Jin couldn't see, and could only see a faint figure following the light.
Cheng Jin thought it was Chu Chengye who came back, so she awkwardly pressed the edge of the window and poked a crack in the wood. Cheng Jin tentatively asked:
"Why are you back? Have you finished handling official business?"
Cheng Jin's blurry figure seemed to be getting closer and closer to him, and Pei Yu's gentle voice came.
Pei Yu whispered, "Xiao Jin, it's me."
Cheng Jin's body froze, and she looked in Pei Yu's direction tentatively. She couldn't see now, so she could only rely on her sense to find Pei Yu's direction.
Cheng Jin raised the corners of her lips and smiled at Pei Yu, "Pei Yu, it's you."
Pei Yu wanted to respond, but then he realized that Cheng Jin in front of him couldn't see him. He walked slowly in Cheng Jin's direction, subconsciously wanting to touch Cheng Jin's eyes. Cheng
Jin's eyes were still sparkling, but not as energetic as before, as if the light in her eyes would never disappear.
Pei Yu already knew that Cheng Jin was blind before he came. Even though he had made the worst plan in his heart, when he really saw it, Pei Yu's heart still couldn't help but ache.
He looked at Cheng Jin's controlled voice, and tried to make himself look more normal, "It's me."
To be honest, Cheng Jin hadn't seen Pei Yu for a long time. She only knew that Pei Yu disappeared for a long time after treating Cheng Jin. It was heard that he resigned from his official position early in the morning and didn't even stay in the capital often. Later, Cheng Jin hadn't heard from Pei Yu for a long time.
The two people had explained everything before, and Pei Yu just regarded Cheng Jin as his sister who had grown up with him.
When she knew that the person who came was Pei Yu, Cheng Jin relaxed subconsciously. She held the window and took two steps towards Pei Yu, her eyes bright.
"I heard that you have not been an official in the capital for a long time. I thought you went to travel. Why are you back again?"
Because there is someone I care about most in this capital.
Even though Pei Yu wanted to say these words, he finally just smiled at Cheng Jin and said, "I came back after having enough fun."
Cheng Jin couldn't help but show envy on her face, and her tone was full of frustration that she didn't even notice.
"That's great."
Pei Yu pulled Cheng Jin's sleeve, led her to the table, and helped her sit down. Pei Yu said, "Xiao Jin will be able to do it in the future."
Cheng Jin didn't tell Pei Yu that her eyes were completely blind and there was no antidote. She just lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking. She nodded in a trance.
Pei Yu said, "Xiao Jin, don't worry. Xiao Jin's eyes are not incurable."
Cheng Jin raised her head suddenly when she heard Pei Yu's words, and blinked in Pei Yu's direction, as if she didn't believe it.
Pei Yu said slowly: "Everything in this world is interdependent. Since this poison can be made, there is an antidote to match it. It's just that the poison in your body is more complicated, so the method is also complicated."
Cheng Jin heard Pei Yu's words as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw. She asked excitedly: "Then what should I do?"
Cheng Jin now has only one thought in her mind, that is, Chu Chengye will no longer be in danger of his life to save her, and she doesn't have to die.
This is not a dead end where one of the two must die.
"I have heard that when the emperor took your heart blood, that method was indeed useful, but the damage was too great, and only one of you can survive."
Cheng Jin had guessed it long ago. If it was really like Chu Chengye said, he was fine, then how could this prescription for the antidote for all poisons be just a rumor and no one had ever tried it.
Pei Yu continued, "But it is indeed the most useful, and it can save you from the unbearable pain of forcing the poison out of your body."
Cheng Jin immediately shook her head, "I can bear it."
"The pain of bone gnawing, blood flowing backwards, and bones and muscles separating from the flesh, can you do it?" Pei Yu looked at Cheng Jin uncertainly.
Cheng Jin nodded heavily, "I can."
Cheng Jin was not really afraid. Of course, she was afraid of pain, and she could even say that she was afraid that this pain might be more terrifying and lasting than death, but this was what she had to endure.
She couldn't really let Chu Chengye sacrifice his life for her.
Pei Yu nodded, "In that case, I will come again tomorrow to help you detoxify."
Pei Yu made a few more arrangements for Cheng Jin, and then left quickly. The Chunhe Palace was quiet again, with only Cheng Jin left.
But now all the invisible loneliness before is gone, and what remains is only hope for the future, hope for life.
She has always longed to live, longed for love, longed for happiness, and now that she has everything, she is even more reluctant to leave.
Not long after Pei Yu left, Chu Chengye, who had just come in the morning, came back quickly. He almost ran over, and his breathing was not smooth when he arrived at Chunhe Palace. Wei An behind him could not keep up with Chu Chengye at all, and could only shout behind him, "Your Majesty, go slower, be careful of the dragon body."
How could Chu Chengye be slower? Pei Yu disappeared for so long, and suddenly appeared again. He came back and went straight to Chunhe Palace. What else could he be thinking? Wasn't he just going for Cheng Jin?
He should have stopped talking earlier when he allowed Pei Yu to move freely in the palace because he treated Cheng Jin.
Thinking of this, Chu Chengye took bigger steps until he reached the door of Cheng Jin's bedroom. He stopped and put away his anxious look, fearing that he would scare Cheng Jin, who was now invisible. He gently opened the door, walked in front of Cheng Jin, and said in a deep voice, pretending not to care:
"I heard that Pei Yu is here?"
Cheng Jin heard Chu Chengye's voice, and thought of Pei Yu saying that she was saved. The smile on her face could not be concealed at all. She stood up like an excited deer and rushed straight into Chu Chengye's arms.
