Chapter 1969 [Shangxie] I don't need you
After a long time, he slowly looked away and said three sentences lightly.
The first sentence is "I can't remember the prescription."
The second sentence is "I don't need you to take risks for me."
The third sentence is longer and is said while looking into her eyes.
"Miss Xia, we are just passing strangers to each other. I am very grateful that you can come to Chiwei for me, but your actions are a great trouble to me."
After seeing each other again, this was the first time Xia Fuyi looked into his eyes and listened to him speak so clearly.
But the content of these words made her heart beat slower.
Her heart felt like it was being pressed down by a huge mountain, making it difficult for her to breathe, and her throat even felt sore.
She saw the cold seriousness in those eyes, so she slowly lowered her head, and her voice was hoarse when she spoke again.
"I thought you needed me."
She seemed to be talking to herself.
"I just can't help it."
Her fingers silently grasped the bed sheet, her voice becoming lower and lower, a little dull,
"If this has caused you any trouble, I'm sorry. I can leave tonight."
Without looking up, she slowly stood up and took two steps back.
"If you have any problems in the future, you can ask someone to come to Taixu Mountain..."
At this point Xia Fuyi suddenly stopped, she was stunned for a moment and suddenly became uneasy.
"Or... let's forget it. Taixu Mountain is so far away. You are the emperor, how could you need my help?"
"I...I'm leaving."
She turned and left the bedroom, her green robe swirling in the night and soon disappearing behind the curtain.
The man who had been cold and silent until now and never looked up finally turned his head and stared at the slightly swaying curtain. His face was pale and he pressed his chest expressionlessly.
The window opened and closed.
The extremely slight sound fell into the man's ears, but it was like a clear and heavy sound of a lock being locked. He heard the sound of darkness falling again.
The darkness and silence that were so familiar, but became unbearable after just three days of companionship.
Chang Sun Chi closed his eyes in the endless darkness and lay back on the bed like a walking corpse.

Xia Fuyi, who had just left the Zichen Palace, was not feeling relaxed.
Ever since the bun thief showed up, there were more guards surrounding the Purple Palace. Now it was not as easy for her to go out as when she came in.
Fortunately, after staying in Zichen Palace for a few days, she roughly understood the daily rotation time and patrol routes of the imperial guards.
With her martial arts skills, she could always find her way out by avoiding the most dangerous roads.
Xia Fuyi was not nervous. On the contrary, her soul seemed to still remain in the Zichen Palace. She felt a little tired and absent-minded when trying to find the way. She kept her head down, so she didn't notice that the patrol route of the imperial guards tonight was different from what she had heard two days ago.
The guards wearing iron armor and equipped with iron swords moved silently in the night, silently forming routes to cut off traffic, and calmly leading people to places where there were no patrols.
So when Xia Fuyi came to her senses, there was no sound around her.
She looked up and saw the sky filled with stars, which sprinkled like white frost on the flowers and leaves at night.
In the middle of the flowers, someone was sitting at a table drinking.
Part of her black hair was tied up on top of her head, and the rest was spread out behind her. It was a darker black than the night.
Transparent wine poured out from the spout of the white jade wine jug and fell into the warm wine glass.
Then the man, covered in starlight, turned around, raised the corner of his mouth nonchalantly, and raised his glass to her.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time. Want to have a drink?"
