"prince…"

The moment Feng He turned around to look over, the subordinate lowered his head quickly, as if he didn't dare to look him in the eye.

Feng He seemed to be used to it. "Hmm? What do you want to say?"

As Yashu said, the subordinate told Fenghe everything that happened in the residence.

Feng He played with her long hair scattered on her chest, a smile appeared on her lips, "Looks like it's time for a hero to save a beauty."

However, a whole day passed and he did not show up at his residence.

Yunqi had been unconscious for a whole day before he showed signs of waking up.

He was lying on the ground with his hands and feet tied. He was in a closed space with the doors and windows closed. Although it was not dirty, Yun Qi felt it was very cold.

He just moved his head slightly and his neck started to hurt so much that he had no choice but to lie back down.

Yun Qi sighed softly and tried to calm down, but he still couldn't figure it out. He had never encountered anything like this before. Could it be that just because he liked a guy, all these bad things happened to him? That wasn't what he said...

Moreover, he didn't even realize that someone was going to attack him!

The more I think about it, the angrier I get...

And it was probably impossible to escape now. First, I couldn't use any strength. Second, my feet were tied so tightly. Third, the place where I was beaten hurt so much. Even if there was no bleeding, it would be red and swollen. Finally, as expected, the door should be locked.

Oh, go to bed early.

He did what he thought. Yun Qi closed his eyes and thought that he could sleep whenever he could and recover his strength at the same time.

But before I could wait for a while, I heard the sound of a lock being opened at the door, and then someone pushed the door open and closed it again. I could tell that the footsteps were deliberately light.

Yunqi pretended not to wake up and concentrated on listening to the sounds and determining the location.

Here, he doesn't know anyone and doesn't trust anyone, so he naturally has to be cautious.

When the man approached, Yun Qi's heart also lifted up, but he didn't expect that the man was silent for a while and suddenly said: "You are awake now."

Yunqi knew that he could no longer hide it, so he opened his eyes.

The man in his sight actually knelt down right in front of him.

Yun Qi looked at his light-colored clothes, then glanced at the stained ground, not knowing what to say for a moment.

The man took out something wrapped in paper from his arms, opened it in his palm, and under Yunqi's puzzled gaze, he picked up a piece of cake inside and handed it to Yunqi's mouth.

"Eat it."

Yun Qi: “……?”

Seeing Yun Qi hesitate to speak, the man explained what he thought was the reason: "Although you asked me for help, there were too many people around at the time, so it was difficult for me to help. But I understand you, so I had no choice but to help you as much as possible in this way."

It would have been fine if he didn't explain. This explanation made Yun Qi even more confused, "Help?"

Likewise, Yunqi's reaction also made him feel strange. "Didn't you grab my shoulder and want me to help you?"

Yun Qi: “…”

The next second, Yun Qi said: "You even noticed this..."

If he knew that I actually treated him as a "dry bomb" at that time, he would definitely kill him, so I must keep it a secret!

The man seemed to be lost in the sorrow of memories and subconsciously put the pastry back. Yun Qi, who was about to take a bite, was stunned.

The man hadn't reacted yet and began to sigh to himself, "People here are more thoughtful. When I first arrived, I also tried to use this method to hope that others would help me, but... it was useless. So when I saw you, I naturally thought of my past self. So helping you is also helping myself."

Yunqi's head would only be propped up for a while when he wanted to eat pastries, and now it was resting on the ground again.

"Did they bully you like this before?"

"yes."

"But I may be a little different from you, I..."

"You disdain to compete for favor, don't you?"

Yun Qi paused, feeling both right and wrong.

At this moment, the man shifted slightly, sitting less formally and adopting a more comfortable posture. Yun Qi felt that this made the atmosphere a little more relaxed.

Then the man said, "I was disdainful before."

Before Yun Qi could reply, he continued, "My family was once the most powerful in Yue. However, due to our poverty, we were framed. Prince Feng He later saved me, but I only felt that being a male concubine was a great shame. I have been living in this world for a long time and I have lost the courage to commit suicide."

"So you don't like Feng He either."

The man shook his head. "It doesn't matter whether you like it or not. If you want to live your life, there are certain things you must do, like the 'competition for favor' that we all despised."

Yun Qi was silent for a moment and asked, "What's your name?"

The man didn't seem to expect him to ask this, and after a moment he replied, "Qingji."

"Help me up first."

Qingji did as he was told and placed him against the wall. He accidentally touched the injured area and Yunqi hissed.

Qingji quickly withdrew his hand, his eyes were at a loss for a moment, and then quickly returned to normal.

Yun Qi paused for a moment and said, "There are many ways to live. For example, you can leave here."

Qingji's eyes moved, and the next moment he said insincerely, "But many people say that being by Prince Fenghe's side is a great blessing."

Yun Qi said "Tsk" with disdain.

"He's nothing."

Qingji was stunned.

It was the first time he heard someone say this. It seemed as if a crack had appeared in his heart, a crack that had once shaken his heart, which he had once been ashamed of. It was a refutation that any resistance on his part was unreasonable given everyone's praise and tolerance for Feng He.

What he meant was: He was right.

Yun Qi didn't know what he had said wrong. Why did the person in front of him have such a dazed expression? Could it be that he couldn't stand hearing others scold Feng He? How could this be...

"Let me apply medicine for you."

This sentence instantly interrupted Yunqi's thoughts.

"ah?"

"Apply the medicine." Qingji repeated.

Yun Qi was a little confused. Why did he suddenly have to help him apply medicine? Did he just misunderstand him? Was he stunned because he enjoyed it?

Although Yun Qi didn't quite understand, but with such a good thing, what reason did he have to refuse?

It's been hurting for a long time.

"Okay, sure. Thank you in advance."

Qingji said: "It's okay."

Then Qingji leaned forward, held Yunqi's shoulders and pulled him towards him.

Yun Qi hesitated, "How should I get on this?"

Qingji thought for a moment and said, "I can't help you untie the rope. So, you can lean on me and put your head on my shoulder. I can handle it."

Yun Qi drummed it twice. It was awkward, but it seemed to be the best way.

After everything was done, Qingji gently lifted the clothes around Yunqi's neck. Just as Yunqi had thought, it was indeed red and swollen.

Feeling the pain, Yun Qi immediately complained, "That guy among you is really ruthless. Don't let me catch him!"

Qingji replied calmly with one word: "Okay."

Qingji applied the ointment evenly as he spoke, and the wound immediately felt cool and comfortable.

Before Yunqi could thank him again, he suddenly heard two people talking outside the door.

"Is he here?"

"Yes, Prince."

!!!

The two people in the house were shocked, but it was too late...

"Who unlocked it?"

Immediately afterwards, Feng He appeared in front of Yun Qi and Qing Ji.

Yashu followed behind and when he saw this scene, his eyes widened, "You guys!"

In their eyes, Yunqi was leaning in Qingji's arms, and the scene was very beautiful.

The previous moment, Yunqi was panicking because he was worried that Qingji would be implicated. At this moment, he was furious when he saw the faces of Fenghe and Yashu.

"What are you talking about?! Shut up!"

At this time, Feng He said: "Ah Qi..."

"What?"

The main character is not convinced by anyone.

Feng He's usually frivolous face also showed a bit of seriousness.

Qingji's gaze switched back and forth between the two of them. Finally, he gently placed Yunqi back in place, then quickly walked over and knelt in front of Fenghe and Yashu.

"I took the initiative to give him medicine."

Seeing him like this, Yun Qi immediately said anxiously, "No? Is giving medicine a crime? If you have anything to do with me, come to me. At most, I'll be locked up for a few more days. It doesn't matter, right?"

Qingji did not make any excuses, but lowered his head and waited for punishment, which made Yunqi very anxious.

But to everyone's surprise, Feng He simply patted Qing Ji on the shoulder and said, "I know, you did a great job."

Qingji looked up suddenly in surprise, and Fenghe had already walked past him and walked over there, and then he picked up Yunqi.

"You bastard..." Yunqi couldn't help but curse.

Feng He ignored him. Before he left, he said to the side, "Bring him out too."

He refers to Qingji.

Yashu had never seen such a scene before. After he came to his senses, he responded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes."
