Chen Hua: ...
It wasn't that she was slow to react; rather, it was that her opponent was too fast. Before she could even make a move, her wrist was grabbed.
"Let go," Shen Hua said coldly.
"Little Fish, do we really have to go this far? Come with me, and I can give you everything he can give you."
Shen Hua: "Humans and demons are destined to be apart; there will be no good outcome."
Shen Hua was just guessing and said that he didn't dare to say too much now, since he couldn't beat the other party.
"Hahahaha, it's another case of humans and demons being incompatible. Little Fish, why don't you believe me? I'll find a solution soon, but before long, you're already married. If I hadn't arrived at the right time, you would have ended up with that weakling..."
Chen Hua: ...
Her wrist was a little sore, so she took advantage of the man's inattention and kicked him. She ran to Xie Sichen and wanted to see if kissing him here would bring back his spiritual energy, so she wouldn't be afraid of this bastard.
Her very act of running over made the man somewhat saddened, and then his inner energy surged.
"Little Fish, do you really want to do this?"
"Since that's the case, then I'll kill him, and then you'll be mine."
"You dare? If you kill him, I'll kill myself."
Shen Hua decided to first see if the matter could be resolved peacefully. If the spiritual energy couldn't be restored and she had offended someone, things would be difficult.
"Fine! It's only been a short time, and you're already protecting him like this. Little Fish, you can stay here for now, but only if you don't get involved with him..."
At this point, he glanced at Xie Sichen symbolically, the meaning of which was self-evident.
"Little Fish, you know I don't want him to live."
"Okay, I promise."
Shen Hua readily agreed, as she needed the same thing, and this would reduce some trouble.
As soon as she agreed, she saw the man give a wry smile and then quickly leave.
Chen Hua: ...
This is the first time I've been so speechless.
I just hope nothing else happens.
Helping Xie Sichen up against the bed, he was already injured, and after what had just happened, he felt like he was about to collapse.
They fed him a pill, and after a while, his complexion improved a little.
"Thanks."
"Are you no longer restricted?"
Xie Sichen nodded and said, "Sometimes there are restrictions, and sometimes there are no restrictions."
"Do you know how long you've been in here? Have you found anything?"
She came in later than them, and at a different time, so she didn't know how long they had been in or what they knew.
Xie Sichen took a breath and felt better before speaking: "I just came in a day early. I've been playing the role of Jia Jue. As for what I discovered, I feel like we came in to complete a story that someone else has already gone through. Maybe we can leave after we finish, or maybe we'll die after that character."
"Also, you're going to have a tough time after tomorrow. Jia Jue's parents dote on him, but because of the engagement, they hate you and will make things difficult for you. I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself then."
Upon hearing this, Shen Hua frowned. So this was what she was waiting for. So this was what the person meant when they said she would regret it.
However, if it were Mu Xiaoyu, she might be someone who is weak and helpless, and her personality might be a bit timid, which would explain why she would be bullied. Otherwise, it wouldn't be surprising if those people bullied her.
"It's alright, I'm not restricted, I can handle it."
"Shall we rest now? You sleep on the bed, and I'll sleep on the table."
Shen Hua glanced at the table, then at Xie Sichen. With his body being even weaker than hers, sleeping on the table meant he didn't want to see the sun rise tomorrow.
"No need, I don't care about these things. Let's sleep in the same bed."
As she spoke, she helped Xie Sichen lie down inside, while she herself lay down in front.
"Cough, cough, cough."
"How about I give you acupuncture now, for your injury?"
Shen Hua was about to get up when Xie Sichen stopped her.
"No need, it's nothing serious, you'll be almost fully recovered by tomorrow."
Seeing that he insisted, Shen Hua lay down.
But at night, Xie Sichen complained of being cold, and unconsciously leaned towards her, even reaching out to hug her.
Chen Hua: ...
She has no spiritual power now, so she can't do anything but try to let him hold her to keep warm.
But she couldn't sleep. She didn't fall asleep until dawn. When she saw herself in the mirror, she was so frightened by her two big panda eyes that she almost thought she had seen a ghost.
"Young mistress, are you ready? Master and Madam are waiting for you to come and pay your respects. If you are late, I will not be able to explain myself."
Shen Hua glanced at the sky, which was just beginning to lighten, and really didn't know what to say; it was far too early.
Do we have to pay our respects? Are we supposed to kowtow to them?
Xie Sichen also got up. It was the first time he had gotten up so early, and he stayed by Chen Hua's side, helping her fix her hair.
"Xie Sichen, is this greeting necessary every day?"
Xie Sichen thought for a moment, then nodded.
"That's how it should be in principle. But if you're lucky, you don't have to go to pay your respects. Like me, they were afraid that it would tire me out, so they changed it to paying my respects once every five days."
Chen Hua: ...
She's never received such treatment. The difference in how people are treated is astounding!
"Young mistress, is it ready? Or should we go in and help you?"
If Xie Sichen hadn't been there, those maids wouldn't have just been talking; they would have actually come in.
"Quiet," Xie Sichen said coldly.
As soon as he uttered those two words, his face turned even paler.
However, the opposite is still good.
"You don't need to force yourself to speak. Go back to sleep for a while. I'll be right back. They won't bother me."
After finishing her sentence, Shen Hua got up, opened the door, and left.
There was only one maid outside the door. She looked at Chen Hua with great disdain and walked straight ahead of her after seeing her come out.
Shen Hua didn't argue with her. If she had walked ahead, she wouldn't have been able to find the way to the so-called residence of the master and mistress.
"Please hurry up, young mistress. Master and Madam have been waiting for a long time. If they blame you, you won't be able to bear the consequences."
Chen Hua: ...
I came here to scare her, and after saying a few perfunctory words, I followed her at a leisurely pace.
She encountered only a few maids along the way, but they were all whispering to her. She could hear some of what they were saying, but they were just country girls who didn't know anything about education.
The courtyard wasn't big and looked rather dilapidated, yet they still called themselves "Master and Madam," trying to imitate the ways of the nobility.
Soon, she was led by a maid to the place for paying her respects.
There was no sound from inside, so the person was obviously still asleep, and the little maid was urging her so early, clearly trying to make things difficult for her.
Shen Hua's expression turned cold; it was dangerous for her to be angry.
He asked coldly, "Is this what you meant by 'waiting too long'?"
The maid was also startled by her imposing manner and almost blurted out something, but she quickly raised her head and looked down at Chen Hua.
