Chapter 34 Can't you spend some time with me?
Chunyu Han carried Yu Nian and boarded the carriage amidst Cang Hai's shocked gaze.
"Return to the residence."
Chunyu Han's voice was cold, but his movements were gentle as he put Yu Nian down, letting her lie face down in the carriage to avoid touching her wound.
"Thank you, sir."
Yu Nian forced a smile, but the pain in her body made it difficult for her to even breathe.
"You'd better stop laughing, it's too ugly."
Chunyu Han looked away, no longer paying attention to Yu Nian. His emotions were somewhat complicated. He always made exceptions for Yu Nian without realizing it. He had not yet accomplished his great task, and doing so would be too risky.
"I am certainly not as handsome as you, sir. Every expression you make is so pleasing to the eye."
Yu Nian tried her best to distract herself by looking at Chunyu Han's stunning profile, hoping it would temporarily help her forget the pain.
"Noisy".
Chunyu Han closed his eyes again to rest, turning the prayer beads in his hand to calm his emotions.
Tch, here we go again. That weird temper. Luckily he's a eunuch; if he were a normal man, he definitely wouldn't be able to find a girlfriend.
Yu Nian stuck out her tongue, closed her eyes, and went to rest.
He had only been silent for a short while when Chunyu Han spoke again.
"Don't sleep."
Yu Nian kept her eyes closed, not wanting to pay any attention to this strange person.
To everyone's surprise, Chunyu Han was quite insistent on this issue. When he saw that Yu Nian was not listening, he even reached out and pinched Yu Nian's arm.
"Don't sleep."
Ugh, when will this ever end? Just now, when she was talking, Chunyu Han complained that she was being noisy, and now that she's sleeping quietly, he's pinching her! He's really got a problem…
Yu Nian lazily opened her eyes, and faced with Chunyu Han, who had just agreed to consider forming an alliance with her, she dared not speak out against her anger.
They've only just laid a good foundation; if it's ruined by a few words, Yu Nian will cry herself to sleep in the bathroom.
"Sir, please don't be so domineering."
Upon seeing Yu Nian wake up, Chunyu Han's intermittent muteness relapsed, and he simply looked down at Yu Nian without uttering a word.
Yu Nian: "..."
Well, I really can't mess with you. Chunyu Han might have some mental problems due to chronic sleep deprivation.
"My lord, the Eastern Depot is almost here. The Chief Eunuch sent you an invitation today, inviting you to inspect the area."
Canghai's voice came from outside the car. What was originally a very ordinary business matter became a huge uproar in Yu Nian's ears.
Seriously? Chunyu Han, that loser, is going to the Eastern Depot? He can go, but Yu Nian can't. She can't move an inch except when she's lying down. Does she have to crawl to chase after Chunyu Han?
"Um……"
Chunyu Han had set this schedule long ago and would go for routine check-ups every month. Just as he was about to answer, he suddenly felt a heat on the side of his leg.
Yu Nian's head rested comfortably on his lap, her big eyes blinking as she looked at him.
"Sir, could you not go? I'd like to stay with you a little longer."
The soft, gentle voice, with its pleading emphasis, stirred Chunyu Han's heart, which had just begun to calm down, like a feather.
"cannot."
Chunyu Han decisively refused, but Yu Nian showed no sign of being discouraged.
"Then you must take me with you, sir."
Yu Nian wrapped one arm around Chunyu Han's leg and started acting spoiled again.
"release."
Chunyu Han tried to pull Yu Nian's hand, but the more he pulled, the tighter Yu Nian clung to him.
"Sir, how can you be so heartless? I'm injured and you won't even stay with me for a day. Just one day, and I'll stop making a fuss."
Yu Nian struggled, ignoring the pain in her back wound; she was determined to complete the mission.
Chunyu Han's face was so dark it could drip ink. If he really had no heart for Yu Nian, he would have thrown her out of the car long ago.
"grown ups?"
Canghai waited for a while but didn't get a reply from Chunyu Han. Seeing that they were about to reach the territory of the Eastern Depot, he asked again.
"We'll go another day. Let's go back to the mansion first."
Chunyu Han eventually changed his mind. He couldn't even remember how many times he had changed his mind at the last minute because of Yu Nian.
Chunyu Han can forget about handling official business until he sends this troublesome fellow back.
"Thank you so much, sir. You are so kind to me."
Flattery will get you everywhere, and Yu Nian has gone further and further down the path of praising Chunyu Han.
Yu Nian yawned, moved closer to Chunyu Han, and inhaled the calming scent of sandalwood. Yu Nian couldn't help but doze off.
She could vaguely hear Chunyu Han's somewhat angry voice saying something like "Don't sleep" beside her, but her eyelids were already out of control.
Yu Nian's upper and lower eyelids struggled fiercely for a few rounds before she finally closed her eyes.
"Yu Nian?"
Chunyu Han called Yu Nian several times but there was no response. Such a boisterous person was now as if he had been in a long sleep.
He brought his fingertips close to Yu Nian's nose and felt a faint breath coming out. The feeling of pressure in Chunyu Han's chest eased a lot because of this faint breath.
She's so irritating; even healthy people would get sick from being scared by her.
"My lord, we have arrived."
The carriage entered the Regent's residence, and Canghai lifted the curtain from the outside.
The influx of fresh air made the stench of blood in the carriage even more pronounced.
Chunyu Han frowned, his gaze falling on Yu Nian's waist, where the dark eunuch's clothes concealed the reopened wound.
"Send Sangtian to the Honeysuckle Pavilion."
Chunyu Han scooped up the dazed Yu Nian and strode quickly toward the Honeysuckle Pavilion.
With injuries like that, why does she still insist on going out? Is there something wrong with her?
Yu Nian slept soundly, completely forgetting the pain in her body. She had a beautiful dream in which she returned to her original world.
Sang Tian immediately rushed over with his medicine box, and Chun Tao was also serving him at the bedside.
Chunyu Han had been very careful to let go of Yu Nian, but it still aggravated her wounds and pulled Yu Nian out of that beautiful dream.
With her eyes slightly narrowed, Yu Nian used her last bit of strength to hook Chunyu Han's index finger, the slight coolness at his fingertips making her feel very comfortable.
"Don't go."
Yu Nian muttered something, her strength in her hands weak but persistent.
With a gentle hook, Chunyu Han froze, as if stung by something, and withdrew his hand.
"Hiss, stay with me for a while, I'm scared."
Yu Nian tried to reach out and grab Chunyu Han again, but she couldn't reach him anymore. Her hand hung down like a kite with a broken string. Sang Tian had already cut open her clothes. The blood and grime from her open wounds were stuck to the fabric. The pain from the sticky residue when she pulled it off made Yu Nian's face scrunch up.
"Only now do you realize you're afraid."
Wasn't he quite bold back in the Imperial Study?
Yu Nian looked at Chunyu Han with some grievance. Why was she suffering like this? If he hadn't been running around everywhere, she wouldn't be in this situation.
Tears were brought on by pain. Yu Nian didn't want to cry, but tears kept streaming down her face. She glared angrily at Chunyu Han, thinking that his heart must be made of stone, and he was still making sarcastic remarks at a time like this.
"Can't you even stay with me for a moment?!"
Yu Nian's soft, coquettish voice rang out, but it didn't intimidate Chunyu Han. Instead, it startled Sang Tian so much that his hand trembled.
She had never seen anyone dare to yell at an adult. Those who had yelled at adults were eventually put down and displayed in front of Xuanhua Gate.
Miss Yu is truly audacious...
Time seemed to freeze. The bedroom was deathly silent. Sangtian knew that Lord Chunyu was about to get angry, and Yu Nian was definitely in trouble.
