Chen Jingxi slowly opened her eyes, and saw a hazy outline in front of her eyes, which gradually became clear.
"Jing Huai..."
Chu Jinghuai suddenly pulled her into his arms, his voice low and hoarse: "Jingxi, you're finally awake."
"hiss……"
"Did I hurt you? I didn't mean to do that." Chu Jinghuai said helplessly.
Chen Jingxi shook her head and looked at the man in front of her. Although there was nothing wrong with his appearance, she could feel his tenseness and panic.
Chen Jingxi felt an inexplicable pang in her heart. She raised her hand and touched his face, whispering, "I was careless and made you worry."
"It's my fault. I knew they had arrived in Qingzhou, but I still didn't protect you. I have never been able to protect you." Chu Jinghuai said self-reproachfully.
"It's not your fault, you did a great job."
Chu Jinghuai's eyes darkened, and a cold glint burst out from them. "That's not enough. I will kill them all. Anyone who wants to hurt you deserves to die. Once they are all dead, no one will be able to hurt you."
Chen Jingxi's heart trembled, looking at the murderous intent and cruelty in his eyes, like a deadly Shura coming out of hell.
"Is Jingxi afraid of me? Do you think I'm an evil star that only brings killing?" Chu Jinghuai looked away, but there was a hint of fragility in his tone.
Chen Jingxi was silent for a moment, then she stretched out her hands to hold Chu Jinghuai's face and gently kissed him on the lips. "Jinghuai, look at me. No matter what you are like, I will only love you and never leave you."
Chu Jinghuai was stunned, the coldness in his eyes gradually dissipated, and was then filled with tenderness and heat. His slightly cool fingertips gently stroked her face, he lowered his head, and fiercely kissed her pale lips.
"Jingxi, I love you... I will only love you in this life..."
Chen Jingxi put her arms around his neck and responded to the restrained yet passionate kiss, "Me too, I only love you."
After the two of them lingered for a while, no one said anything. Chen Jingxi put her face on Chu Jinghuai's chest, leaning against him gently, and suddenly found that this man had a special smell.
It was hard to tell what the smell was, it seemed a bit like sweat, as if she couldn't smell the sweat on him since she became pregnant.
I took a look at him and realized that he was disheveled and probably hadn't taken a shower.
The weather was hot, and she suddenly felt a little disgusted. What should she do? She had just said she loved him, so forget it. Just now was just now, and now is now.
"Jinghuai, go and fix yourself up and take a rest. You must not have slept last night, right?"
"It's okay." Chu Jinghuai replied lightly. Although he was very tired, he didn't want to leave her for a moment.
"You're making me stink! Go take a shower right now, and don't get on my bed without a shower." Chen Jingxi's tone suddenly became sharp, and she glared at him with wide eyes. This attitude completely changed.
Chu Jinghuai was obviously frightened. He immediately stood up and said, "I will go take a shower and change clothes right away."
After saying this, he quickly retreated from the house.
Chen Jingxi took a deep breath and found that the air was indeed much better.
She touched the wound and recalled what happened yesterday. She noticed the other party's attack the moment he made it, but the distance between them was too close and she didn't have time to dodge.
I could only protect my stomach and avoid the vital parts. The wound was not deep, so why did she faint and sleep for so long?
There must be some other reason. I'd better ask Chu Jinghuai later. Maybe there's something wrong with her body.
She thought so.
Nan Xing knew she was awake and ran over in a hurry, "Sister Xi, are you awake? How are you? Are you still in pain?"
Han Yu outside the door stopped her, "Miss Nanxing, my princess is still resting, please come back later."
"Han Yu, is that Nan Xing? Let her in." Chen Jingxi's voice came from inside the house.
"Yes, Princess."
Nan Xing heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Chen Jingxi wake up. "Sister Xi, I'm glad you're awake. I was scared to death yesterday."
Chen Jingxi smiled faintly, patted the bed and motioned her to sit down.
Nan Xing sat down, pouting, "Sister Xi, you don't know how horrible yesterday was. Prince Su killed so many people, and he wanted to kill me too. Fortunately, Chu Jingxun came, otherwise I would have died."
Han Yu covered her mouth and smiled. The only one who could come forward to file a complaint against the prince was Miss Nanxing.
Chen Jingxi frowned, "He actually wants to kill you?"
Nanxing nodded heavily.
Chen Jingxi took Nanxing's hand and said, "I'll ask him to apologize to you later."
"Ah!" Nan Xing shook his head wildly and said repeatedly: "No, no."
"Don't be afraid of him. I will take care of it for you."
Nan Xing opened her eyes wide, "Really? Sister Xi, will Prince Su listen to you?"
Chen Jingxi nodded.
"Ahem! Who does the Princess want to make the decision for?" Chu Jinghuai walked in. After washing up, he regained his original handsome appearance.
Chen Jingxi glared at him, "Did you threaten Nanxing yesterday?"
"Really? How could I not remember? Miss Nanxing, did I scare you yesterday?"
Nan Xing was startled and quickly stood up and stood aside. She secretly glanced at Chu Jinghuai and said hastily: "No, I scared myself."
Chu Jinghuai raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Princess, you see, this king is so kind and never hurts innocent people."
Nanxing: Sister Xi, he is a liar. He is so cruel. He kills people, many people, even children. Woo woo woo... Sister Xi, you can't be fooled by him.
Chu Jinghuai said expressionlessly, "Miss Nanxing, is there anything else?"
Nan Xing thought of the important matter, "Sister Xi, I'm relieved to see that you are okay. I came to say goodbye to you."
"You're leaving?"
"Well, I don't know if I can see you again in the future, but I will always remember you."
"I will always remember you. If you are free in the future, please come to the capital to find me."
Nan Xing frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Sister Xi, I may not go to the capital in the future. Chu Jingxun is going to attack Nanzhao, and I want to go with him. After he defeats Nanzhao, we will go to Wuzhou. He said he will never return to the capital in this life."
Chen Jingxi glanced at Chu Jinghuai and said, "Then I'll go to Wuzhou to see you when I'm free."
"Okay! Okay! I'll be waiting for you in Wuzhou. Sister Xi, you can bring the baby to see me. I'll give the baby some of my blood."
Chen Jingxi: “……?”
In the end, Nanxing left in the face of Chen Jingxi's bewilderment and Chu Jinghuai's tyranny.
"Why don't you tell me what's going on?"
Chu Jinghuai pursed his lips and spoke after a long time: "Is the princess angry?"
"No, I just want to know what's going on."
He was not angry. His Highness Prince Su did not want to say those nonsense. He went forward and hugged Chen Jingxi, rubbing her neck like a spoiled child. "Jingxi, I'm so tired. Can I rest for a while?"
Chen Jingxi was at a loss for words. She had never thought that Chu Jinghuai had this side to him, but she couldn't bear to ask any further.
Chu Jinghuai buried his head in her shoulder, deeply inhaling the familiar fragrance, grinning, and slowly fell asleep.
