Chapter 33 Jealousy
The area on Su Yanqiu's heart still felt like it was being bitten by bloodworms, and the pain was piercing his bones.
Although Doctor Liu gave him acupuncture to prevent the poison from spreading, the poison had not been detoxified and he no longer had the strength he once had.
He has now come to this Buddhist temple, having already exhausted all his strength.
Su Yuheng's eyes were slightly moist, and she looked at Su Yanqiu with a pair of clear eyes. She was born with a pitiful look, and such eyes made Su Yanqiu feel a little distressed.
"Silly girl, you're crying like this."
Su Yuheng bit her lips lightly and whispered, "Brother, it's good that you've woken up. Heng'er will never lose you again."
"Even though Heng'er hasn't been here long, now that my second brother has woken up, Heng'er feels that everything is worth it."
Su Yanqiu frowned, raised the corners of his lips, and looked at Su Yuheng gently.
He glanced around and made sure there was no outsider around as Liuli mentioned. Then he smiled and said, "Second brother, it's great to have you."
"Just now you said that you were willing to sacrifice ten years of your life in exchange for my safe return. Now that I'm awake, do you still remember what you said and did to me in that room?"
Su Yuheng was silent for a moment, lowered his eyes and stopped talking.
Huo Xingzhi is still on the roof.
Her cheeks flushed slightly as she simply stared at the Buddha statue in front of her.
Su Yanqiu smiled and said, "I know Heng'er is shy. I should have taken the initiative in this matter, but you, a woman..."
Su Yuheng really couldn't bear to listen any longer. She stood there, really wanting to find a crack to crawl into.
"It's worth it to you."
"I thought you would never wake up again, so I wanted to leave no regrets in this life, so..."
Su Yanqiu's face showed joy when he heard this. He leaned closer to Su Yuheng and smelled a faint scent of peach blossoms.
"I know that I, Su Yanqiu, will never let Heng'er down in this life."
He reached out to hold the person in his arms, but saw that Su Yuheng's face was pale.
"Heng'er, what's wrong with you?"
Su Yuheng leaned over and fainted on the ground.
"Heng'er."
Su Yanqiu endured the pain in his body and wanted to help Su Yuheng up when Bai Zhi and Bai Lu rushed in first.
Bai Zhi supported Su Yuheng and leaned her into her arms.
He looked at Su Yanqiu and said, "Sir, the young lady has been running all over Yanjing City for the prince's affairs today. She hasn't eaten a single meal yet, and now she is praying in the Buddhist temple. I guess she is tired."
Su Yanqiu looked at the girl in Bai Zhi's arms with heartache, and said in a low voice: "I will carry Heng'er back to the room."
Huo Xingzhi sat on the eaves, listening to the conversation between several people below, his fists slightly clenched.
Bai Zhi shook her head and said, "The poison in the prince's body has not yet been resolved. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to have much energy."
She looked at Bai Lu and said, "Bai Lu, you help the young master back to his room to rest. I will help the young lady back to Fangfei Courtyard. The young lady has been busy for so long today and needs to rest well."
Seeing that the two maids were deliberately objecting, Su Yanqiu thought that the two maids did not know his and Su Yuheng's true identities and were afraid of causing trouble.
"Well, you guys help Heng'er to rest first. I'll go take care of some things and then go find her."
Bai Zhi nodded and took Su Yuheng back to Fangfeiyuan.
Su Yuheng opened his eyes only after Bai Zhi helped him to the side room.
She looked around but didn't see Huo Xingzhi. She thought Huo Xingzhi must have left.
"Baizhi, how's the maid I asked you to arrange?"
Bai Zhi walked up to Su Yuheng and whispered, "Miss, now we just have to wait for Liu Li from Qingfeng Court to leave. Once this position is vacant, we can place Zi Yuan in it."
"If there's any movement from the Crown Prince's side, Ziyuan will inform us."
Su Yuheng nodded. "Yes, Su Yanqiu is a very cunning person. Although Ziyuan is smart and perceptive, she still has to be careful when under his control and not reveal any clues. If he notices something is wrong, she will definitely die."
Bai Zhi nodded: "I understand, I will tell Miss Ziyuan well."
On the other side, when Bai Lu helped Su Yanqiu back to Qingfeng Courtyard, Liuli was still kneeling in the side room.
Su Yanqiu glanced at Liuli coldly, then looked at Bailu: "You go back and take good care of Heng'er. Let her have a good rest. I will go find her later."
Bai Lu nodded and said, "Yes, my lord. I will return to Fangfei Courtyard first."
After helping Su Yanqiu sit on the edge of the bed, she turned around and left the room.
When she passed by Liuli, Liuli looked at her for help.
She didn't save her, turned around and left Qingfengyuan without looking back.
After Bai Lu left, Mo Yu pushed the door open and walked in front of Su Yanqiu.
Su Yanqiu asked, "Did you see anyone suspicious in the Buddhist temple just now?"
Mo Yu shook his head: "I have searched everywhere around the temple, but I didn't see the man Miss Liuli mentioned."
"Prince." Liuli knelt on the ground, looking at Su Yanqiu with a slightly trembling body.
"I saw with my own eyes that the Fourth Young Lady was in the arms of that man in black. I will not lie to you. Please forgive me, my lord. I do not want to be turned into a human pig."
Su Yanqiu sat on the edge of the bed. Beneath his delicate and handsome face, his deep black eyes hid an unfathomable murderous intent.
He curled his lips and said coldly, "Do you think I should trust you or Heng'er?"
"This prince is indeed very good to Heng'er and will marry her in the future, but this is not a reason for you to be jealous of her!"
Liuli's face turned pale, and she quickly explained: "No, my lord, it's not what you think. Please spare my life!"
Su Yanqiu glanced at Liuli nonchalantly, and said in a gloomy voice: "Considering that you have been by my side for many years, you don't have to be turned into a human pig today."
"Mo Yu, drag her away, cut the tendons in her hands and feet, and expel her from the mansion..."
"Yes, Prince."
After those cold words were spoken, Liuli was dragged out of the door by Mo Yu before she could kowtow and beg for mercy.
After a while, a series of shrill screams came from the backyard of Qingfeng Courtyard.
Fangfei Courtyard.
Bai Lu came in and told Su Yuheng what happened in Qingfeng Courtyard.
Su Yuheng just raised his eyes nonchalantly.
Liuli deserved to die.
In her previous life, Liuli, Liu Jinshu and Su Yuhuan tore her face off alive. She still remembers the heart-wrenching pain.
"I understand. You can go out first."
"Yes, miss."
Soon there was movement in the dark room.
Su Yuheng knew that Huo Xingzhi had arrived.
She was about to turn around when she heard the noise, but a big, broad hand pressed down on her waist and pushed her against the wall.
She heard the man's real breathing sound next to her ear. When Su Yuheng turned around, the man held her waist tightly.
A warm breath enveloped her, and she felt the hot breath getting closer and closer to her.
Huo Xingzhi's voice was hoarse as he whispered, "To deceive him, you dared to swear such a vicious oath in front of the Buddha. Do you know the consequences?"
"Huo Xingzhi, Su Yanqiu will be here soon, let him go." Su Yuheng lowered his voice deliberately, fearing that people outside would hear the noise.
The man slowly approached her, enveloping her slender body in light and shadow.
"Are you afraid he'll find out?"
He looked at the girl surrounded by her, his heart moved, he lowered his head, leaned over and bit her red earlobe.
"Wouldn't it be bad if he saw it?"
"Next time, don't swear any more. Be careful not to get into trouble if you act too much."
"No." Su Yuheng explained.
"From the beginning to the end, I have only been devoted to the prince."
A low, hoarse laugh escaped from Huo Xingzhi's throat, and he sneered, "It's enough to deceive him, and you still want to deceive me."
He released his hand that was pinching her slender waist, and his voice was low and magnetic.
"You'd better not play tricks on me."
"Young Master, the young lady has gone to bed." The voice of the maid Bai Zhi came from outside the room.
Hearing the sound outside, Su Yuheng's pupils shrank slightly.
Just as she was about to turn around, she felt a big hand covering her from behind.
Huo Xingzhi put one hand around her waist from behind, pressing her into his arms, and pinched her delicate little jaw with the other hand.
He curled his lips in interest, leaned over to her ear, opened his lips and gently bit her earlobe, and said playfully: "Tell me, if your brother came in and saw you in my arms, would he be so angry that he would spit blood?"
