Chapter 598: Heartfelt Thoughts
"Miss Du, Miss Du?" Lu Yunjue called softly a few times.
Just half a quarter of an hour ago, Miss Du was still struggling in the sack, but now, perhaps because of the effect of the drug, she has completely fainted.
Seeing that she didn't respond, Lu Yunjue found the medicine bottle on Miss Du's body and fed it to her.
When Miss Du opened her eyes, she thought she was in a dream. Before she passed out, she saw the grinning face of the killer in black.
But now, the bed is still the same bed, but the person in front of him has changed from a malicious killer to the handsome and elegant Mr. Lu from next door.
When Lu Yunjue saw that she woke up, his hand that was tucking the quilt for her paused.
The moon shone obliquely, illuminating only half of his godlike face, making him look like a banished immortal who was about to return home on the moon.
"Awake?" he asked.
Miss Du squeezed her eyes shut, straightened up, and asked, "You saved me? Where did those people who wanted to kidnap me come from?"
Lu Yunjue withdrew his hand and replied, "Zhou family."
Miss Du said "Oh" and didn't know what to say. She smelled a hint of blood, frowned, and looked at Lu Yunjue suspiciously.
Lu Yunjue put his hands behind his back and said, "Sister-in-law told you to stay here first, in case the Zhou family makes a surprise attack."
"Are you injured?" Miss Du didn't let his topic get her sidetracked. Instead, she noticed the blood on his arm and asked with concern. "I have some excellent wound medicine here. Why don't you go bandage the wound first?"
She was very grateful that Lu Yunjue came to rescue her in time.
Tick.
A drop of blood fell. Miss Du saw a blue glow in the blood and her face changed drastically. "Those people must have smeared poison on the sword again. Have you taken the antidote?"
Without hesitation, she took out the medicine bottle from her bosom and handed it to Lu Yunjue, but she found that he did not take it. She thought he was being self-righteous and felt uncomfortable.
Lu Yunjue didn't know how to respond. He was not a tongue-tied person, but when facing Miss Du, he always felt that the words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't make a sound.
Even a simple sentence requires a lot of thought.
While he was thinking, the impatient Miss Du had already stuffed the medicine directly into his mouth.
He widened his eyes slightly and wanted to explain that he had actually used his internal energy to force the poison out, but the pill was already in his mouth and it was difficult to spit it out.
After a while, Miss Du stared at him with wide eyes: "Second Master, are you feeling better? Say something!"
Lu Yunjue finally figured out what to say: "Thank you."
Miss Du breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. Remember to bandage your wounds later. By the way, are Xiao Cui and the others okay? Are they injured?"
If there were more injured people, she would have to invite Doctor He over. After all, she couldn't give away her priceless antidote so casually.
"They are all fine." Lu Yunjue replied silently, "You go to sleep."
He pushed the door open and went out. Miss Du was about to lie down when she felt something was wrong: "Hey, why are you standing at my door?"
"My sister-in-law asked me to look after you." Lu Yunjue leaned against the door and replied lightly.
"This, this is not good, right?" Miss Du couldn't sleep anymore. She walked to the door and wanted to persuade Lu Yunjue to leave, but she found that something seemed to have fallen on the ground.
She picked up the thin pink flowered paper on the ground and looked at the familiar handwriting on it, a little surprised.
Isn't this what she wrote to Lu Yunjue a long time ago? How did it end up here?
Lu Yunjue touched his sleeve and found that the thing that had been placed in his sleeve had slipped out because the cuff was cut.
The two of them were separated by a thin door and fell into silence.
Miss Du's hands were on the door latch, curling and stretching.
According to the customs of Qingzhou, flowery paper is different from ordinary letters. If it is given to a girl, it is a normal exchange between close friends, but if it is given to a man, the meaning changes.
At that time, she had given the flower note intentionally to tease Lu Yunjue, but for what reason did Lu Yunjue keep this flower note with special meaning?
Moreover, it should be placed close to the body inside the sleeve.
Miss Du is not a fool, on the contrary, she is extremely intelligent.
She knew that a godlike young man like Lu Yunjue had received a good education and would never easily damage someone's reputation.
The Lu family has a very good family tradition, so Lu Yunjue should not play tricks on her easily.
"He secretly hid my flower note." Miss Du thought to herself, "It's terrible! If he were uglier, his martial arts skills were lower, and his character was worse, he wouldn't be so unsettling."
Just as she was feeling upset, Lu Yunjue finally figured out how to deal with it. He whispered, "My sister-in-law asked me to return this flower note to Miss Du. She said these things shouldn't fall into the hands of other men."
The wind outside the door was blowing very hard, tearing the wisps of clouds into a mess. The moonlight could not be blocked, and it poured down to the earth like water.
Mr. Lu stood outside the door, his body unconsciously tensed by the cold winter wind.
He listened attentively to the movement in the room and didn't see Miss Du slightly curling up the corners of her lips.
Miss Du also replied softly: "Second Master, don't worry, I won't misunderstand you. A person of your integrity would never secretly hide a woman's flower letter."
She placed the medicine bottle heavily on the ground. The porcelain bottle collided with the ground, making a crisp sound that made people's hearts jump.
Just as Lu Yunjue was wondering if she had something else to say, she walked towards the bed again: "Okay, I'm going to sleep. I'll trouble you tonight, Second Young Master."
Lu Yunjue stood stiffly by the door without saying a word. He quietly picked up the golden wound medicine on the ground and seemed to be concentrating on bandaging himself.
The wind was so cold that it chilled his cheeks, and also made him unable to notice the slight blush on his face in the midst of his regret.
Miss Du placed the flowered paper against her chest, covering it tightly with both hands, as if trying to drown out the pounding sound of her heartbeat.
"He's not the type to listen to my sister-in-law," Miss Du thought, her mind a mess, and she couldn't help but feel inexplicably happy. "He must have wanted to keep me company, and he must have secretly hidden my flower note."
Although Lu Yunjue seemed to be very cold towards her on weekdays, but, but what if?
"I, Du Xiaoqin, am one of the most outstanding women in Qingzhou City. He just didn't know my character before, so it's normal for him to admire me after getting to know me." She thought so and became excited again.
The next morning, Hu Xin'er looked at the dark circles under their eyes and couldn't help but stop drinking her porridge: "You..."
"What did you do last night?" Mu Qing continued her conversation and asked seriously.
Lu Yunjue's face was expressionless, but his hands behind his back subconsciously pinched his sleeves.
