Nan Zhiyun closed her eyes. Who could save her... even if it meant sending her to her death...?
Yu Jingchen felt a deathly aura surrounding Nan Zhiyun, and his heart clenched, but he couldn't be soft-hearted now.
"Nan Zhiyun, I'll ask you one last time, what are you trying to say?" Yu Jingchen emphasized.
Nan Zhiyun tried to break free from Yu Jingchen's grasp, but she couldn't. Her hands were helplessly placed in front of her chest, half-raised.
Upon seeing this, Yu Jingchen grasped Nan Zhiyun's wrist and pulled her closer.
“What do you want to say?” he asked.
"No, don't..." Nan Zhiyun kept saying.
"Don't punish me... Black... It hurts so much..." Nan Zhiyun seemed to have lost her mind.
Yu Jingchen frowned, guessing that it was probably due to the influence of the previous environment or something that the Wen family had said or done.
"Your Majesty...please...please..." She couldn't hold on any longer.
Yu Jingchen's expression softened slightly, and he loosened his grip on Nan Zhiyun's arm.
"There will be no punishment, and I won't punish you," Yu Jingchen pulled her into his arms and let her lean against him.
"If you behave, nothing will happen." Yu Jingchen didn't know why he said such things.
Nan Zhiyun hadn't recovered yet, but she wasn't as agitated as before.
"May I have the imperial physician examine your injuries first?" Yu Jingchen asked, bowing slightly.
"No..." Nan Zhiyun didn't want it. They didn't like her. They all wanted to torture her. They would all hurt her... This was the only thought in Nan Zhiyun's mind right now.
"I'm just checking your injuries; they'll hurt a lot if I don't," Yu Jingchen added.
"No...don't..." Nan Zhiyun resisted strongly.
"Then let me take a look, okay?" Yu Jingchen really couldn't do anything with her.
"No, I can't...it hurts..." Nan Zhiyun was in a daze.
Yu Jingchen pressed his temples; no, his head was throbbing.
"Everyone, go down," Yu Jingchen ordered.
Qianxia was initially worried, but seeing Yu Jingchen's expression just now, she decided to leave.
After everyone had left, Yu Jingchen released Nan Zhiyun and then made her sit up straight.
"Look, the wound has already reopened, and it's bleeding. So let me take a look first, okay? There's no one else here, so nothing will happen," Yu Jingchen said.
"No..." Nan Zhiyun refused. They were all deceiving her; they were all trying to punish her...
Yu Jingchen was at a loss.
"Nan Zhiyun, what did I just say to you? Didn't I tell you to be good, and then nothing would happen?" Yu Jingchen slowly tempted her.
Nan Zhiyun remained silent.
Yu Jingchen pressed on: "So be good and let me see your injuries, okay?"
Yu Jingchen waited a while and, not receiving a refusal from Nan Zhiyun, assumed she was willing. So he prepared to pull open Nan Zhiyun's clothes, but the moment his hand touched her, he noticed that Nan Zhiyun's eyes were already red. She was still afraid, but this time she was so afraid that she didn't even have the courage to resist or refuse.
However, Yu Jingchen did not stop there, so he continued to pull open Nan Zhiyun's clothes on her shoulders, and the torn flesh was once again exposed to Yu Jingchen's eyes.
