After a night's rest, Zhu Zhu slowly opened her eyes the next day.
Although I felt a little dizzy, the pain in my left shoulder woke me up instantly.
She had just experienced a life-and-death experience last night and watched Zhu Jue die in front of her.
"woke up?"
Nan Xun stayed with Zhu Zhu all night last night, his cold eyes filled with bloodshot.
Zhu Zhu turned her head slightly, and when she saw Nan Xun's handsome face, she suddenly felt very aggrieved.
"What's wrong?" Nanxun noticed Zhu Zhu's strange expression and couldn't help but feel worried. "Are you feeling unwell? I'll call a doctor right away."
Zhu Zhu shook her head, and warm tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.
"Zhu Jue is dead..." Zhu Zhu spoke slowly, her voice a little hoarse.
"I know." Nan Xun gently held Zhu Zhu's hand. "She was your sister. You must feel bad that she died in front of you."
"No!" Zhu Zhu shook her head vigorously. "It was me...it was me who killed her..."
Nan Xun couldn't help but hold Zhu Zhu's hand tightly.
"You were tied up tightly by them at the time. How could you possibly have killed her?" Nan Xun coaxed Zhu Zhu softly, "Be good...don't let your imagination run wild. Get some rest."
"No." Zhu Zhu still shook her head, her emotions agitated. "I killed her! I killed her!"
"Okay, okay." Nan Xun coaxed Zhu Zhu patiently, "Let's not talk about this for now. Let's wait until your injury is healed before we talk about it."
Nan Xun's words did not have the desired effect, and Zhu Zhu's tears continued to fall.
Nan Xun felt distressed when he saw this, and gently wiped away Zhu Zhu's tears with his slender fingers.
"Okay..." Nanxun said, "Just say whatever you want to say. I'm listening. I'll help you analyze it, okay? But you have to promise me not to get excited and speak politely."
Zhu Zhu nodded, took a deep breath, and spoke slowly: "My uncle Zhu Yuhua wanted to poison me with potassium cyanide. When he was about to open the bottle of potassium cyanide, I bumped into him hard."
Zhu Zhu burst into tears again when she said this.
"The bottle... the bottle flew away because of me. The bottle cap... the bottle cap opened..." Zhu Zhu became increasingly sad as she spoke. "The potassium cyanide inside... fell out, and just happened to... just happened to fall into Zhu Jue's mouth..."
After hearing what Zhu Zhu said, Nan Xun gently wiped away Zhu Zhu's tears.
"It was just an accident." Nan Xun said softly, "It was Zhu Yuhua who killed Zhu Jue. If he hadn't wanted to harm you, he wouldn't have killed his own daughter."
"But...but..." Zhu Zhu said sadly, "After all, it was me who knocked the bottle away."
"Zhu Jue brought the poison," Nan Xun said. "Zhu Yuhua opened the bottle. If they had no intention of harming others, how could they have harmed themselves? They brought this upon themselves."
"Don't be too sad." Nan Xun gently stroked Zhu Zhu's forehead. "It was just an accident. Zhu Jue's death has nothing to do with you."
"But……"
"Shh! Don't overthink it." Nan Xun said, "If you feel bad about it, I will help Zhu Jue arrange a decent funeral. When your injury is healed, we will hold a ritual for her, okay?"
After hearing Nan Xun's words, Zhu Zhu's emotions finally calmed down.
She knew that Nanxun was a man of action, so she nodded slightly.
"You must bury Zhu Jue properly for me."
"Okay." Nanxun nodded. "Don't worry. I will bury her properly."
