Chapter 100 Salted Fish is No Longer Salted Fish

"Oh, okay."

Li Fu's expression was too serious, and Chu Ran also became serious unconsciously.

"I am not the son of Emperor Chengwen. My biological father is actually the late Emperor."

"When my father was seriously ill, he discovered that my mother, Concubine Rou, was pregnant. Although he didn't know whether the baby was a boy or a girl, he still left a will, saying that if it was a boy, he would pass the throne to me."

"At that time, the current Minister of the Central Secretariat Shen Minghan and the eunuch Zhao Zhongyi were both present. They were people trusted by my father. However, after my father passed away, they chose to tamper with the imperial edict and enthrone the Prince of Yan, who is now Emperor Chengwen, to the throne."

"My mother forced herself to give herself to Emperor Chengwen because of me. Emperor Chengwen took my throne and killed my mother, so Emperor Chengwen is my biggest enemy. After my mother passed away, I swore a solemn oath in front of her that I would avenge my mother and myself in this lifetime."

Chu Ran opened his mouth wide, too shocked to speak.

"Don't open your mouth so wide, it's easy for wind to get in," Li Fu reminded.

So Chu Ran quickly closed his mouth again.

He suddenly remembered that Chu Ran had celebrated Zhao Zhongyi's 70th birthday before, but Li Fu did not notice anything unusual at the time, and even generously lent him the Prince Consort's Mansion. However, Li Fu did not attend the celebration on Zhao Zhongyi's birthday.

Thinking about it now, Chu Ran finally understood Li Fu's conflicting emotions at that time.

"Do you still hate Zhao Zhongyi?"

"yes."

Chu Ran could understand Li Fu. If it were him, he would not be able to forgive his enemy so easily. However, Chu Ran didn't know whether he was being unfair to Li Fu. But for so many years, Chu Ran had indeed been dependent on Zhao Zhongyi. He regarded Zhao Zhongyi as a family member. Even though Zhao Zhongyi had done something unfair to Li Fu, Chu Ran could not hate him as much as Li Fu hated Zhao Zhongyi.

"I'm sorry." Chu Ran whispered, "I'm not trying to absolve him, but he must be regretting what he did now."

Li Fu raised his hand and stroked the back of Chu Ran's head. "What do you mean by sorry? It has nothing to do with you."

Chu Ran suddenly thought of something, "Then why are you still working with Shen Minghan..."

"It's just a stopgap measure."

"Um."

After a while, Li Fu said, "I have told you everything about my life. If you have any more questions, just ask directly."

What Li Fu meant by saying this was to tell Chu Ran that from now on, Li Fu had no secrets from Chu Ran and Chu Ran could know whatever he wanted.

Since Li Fu can be honest with him, Chu Ran should not hide anything from Li Fu.

"Actually, I also have a secret that I haven't told anyone." Chu Ran leaned close to Li Fu's ear and whispered in his ear, "I'm not Chu Qinglin."

Li Fu stared at him for a while and said, "I guessed it." After a pause, he asked again, "So who are you?"

"I don't know how to explain this. This body belongs to Chu Qinglin, but the person inside is not. As for where the real Chu Qinglin went, I don't know. Why I came here, I don't know either. In short, you can understand that I came from another world."

"Will you leave?"

Li Fu grabbed Chu Ran's hand and slowly held it tightly.

"I don't think so." Chu Ran looked up at the bright moon above his head, thought for a moment, and said, "I feel like it's impossible for me to go out again."

"Do you want to go back?" Li Fu stared at Chu Ran.

Chu Ran looked back at Li Fu with a confused expression.

Do you want to go back?

If Li Fu had asked him this question earlier, Chu Ran would definitely answer that he wanted to go back, he had always wanted to go back.

But now, Chu Ran suddenly didn't know how to answer Li Fu's question.

"I don't know." Chu Ran said honestly: "Our place is very different from here. Everyone is equal. There is no so-called master and servant, and no one is inferior to anyone else. Although there are many rich people or powerful people, they cannot bully ordinary people at will. Besides, my family and friends are all there."

"Really?" Li Fu asked in a low voice, "Is it really as good as you say?"

Chu Ran nodded.

As if they were talking about something unpleasant, Li Fu's expression suddenly became a little strange, so Chu Ran said again: "There is no point in thinking about these things. You can't go back anyway."

Li Fu hummed softly, suddenly turned around, hugged Chu Ran, tightened his arms, and buried his head in Chu Ran's arms.

Chu Ran patted Li Fu's back soothingly, thinking that he should not have said these to him just now.

"Do you still want to eat mooncakes?" Chu Ran asked.

Li Fu shook his head in Chu Ran's arms and said in a muffled voice, "I don't want to eat anymore."

"Okay, then you can take the rest back and give it to Uncle Xing."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Fu suddenly threw Chu Ran onto the steps. Chu Ran's expression twisted and his lower back hurt. But what followed was Li Fu's chaotic kiss. He kissed Chu Ran's neck, ears, chin, eyes and nose, and finally landed on Chu Ran's lips, rubbing them hard. Chu Ran's breathing became rapid due to his kiss, and a pink blush gradually appeared on his fair face.

Li Fu lay on top of Chu Ran, his chin resting on Chu Ran's shoulder, eyes slightly closed. Chu Ran's hands drooped limply by his side, his clear eyes were filled with sparkling water, his moist red lips were slightly parted, as if he had been kissed unconscious.

"I will leave for Yunzhou tomorrow."

After calming down, Li Fu said this to Chu Ran.

"Okay." Chu Ran said awkwardly, "I understand."

Li Fu raised his head and looked at Chu Ran's eyes which were slowly turning red. He lowered his eyes and kissed her, "Wait for me to come back."

Chu Ran still said: "Okay."

"You can't look at other people." If possible, Li Fu even wanted to dig out one of his eyes and hang it on Chu Ran, so that no matter where Chu Ran went or who he met, Li Fu would know it at the first time, "Especially you can't look at beautiful girls."

Chu Ran couldn't help laughing. He reminded Li Fu, "Have you forgotten that I am still a eunuch?"

"What's wrong with eunuchs?" Li Fu said, "Eunuchs can also have sex with palace maids."

Chu Ran was slightly embarrassed. Well, he hadn’t thought of this.

"Then you can't look at others either." Chu Ran was a little embarrassed and poked Li Fu lightly with his index finger, but then he thought that since it was already like this, there seemed to be nothing to be embarrassed about, so he poked Li Fu with a little more force and said righteously: "No matter whether it is a man or a woman, you can't look at them randomly."

"Okay." Li Fu buried his head back in Chu Ran's shoulder, "I won't look at anyone else except you."

There is a saying that goes, "Now that you are here, make the best of it."

Since Chu Ran is lying here, he might as well continue lying there. Chu Ran also found that watching the moon from this angle seems to be more interesting than when sitting.

So Chu Ran stretched out his arms, lowered his knees that had just been bent inadvertently, lay on his back with his legs spread out, and looked up at the bright moon in the sky.

Will the next time we watch the moon and eat mooncakes together be next year?

He tilted his head to look at Li Fu who was quietly resting his head on him. Li Fu closed his eyes at first, but after a while, perhaps realizing that Chu Ran was looking at him, he opened his eyes and looked into Chu Ran's eyes.

But this time, Chu Ran was no longer as frightened as he was six years ago. He at least confirmed one thing: Li Fu might not want to separate even more than he did.

It was also on this night that Chu Ran made a secret decision in his heart: not only Li Fu was working hard, Chu Ran also had to work harder.

Salted fish Chu Ran, you really have to stand up, you can't salt fish anymore.
