He was so frantic inside that the only way he could show it was that he ignored her rejection and dragged her to the East Palace.
Xia Muyan is much taller than a normal person, and coupled with the training he gained from three years of hunting in the mountains, his hands are naturally much rougher and stronger than those of ordinary people.
He firmly grasped one of Li Shushu's fair wrists and dragged her all the way to her destination.
Li Shushu was born with delicate skin and tender flesh, how could she withstand such rude treatment?
She only felt that the skin on her wrist was scratched and it was very uncomfortable where his palm touched her wrist, especially after walking for so long, it seemed as if her wrist had been pulled off from her shoulder and neck and no longer belonged to her!
After finally dragging her into the hall, he took her directly to the bedroom without stopping.
He roughly threw her onto the bed, then moved forward and fiercely bit her neck, her shoulders, and her enchanting lips...
Li Shushu was panicking and tried to push it away with all her might, but she couldn't move it no matter what she did.
Instinctively, she wanted to turn her head to avoid his passionate kiss, but she found that in front of him, these were all useless...
The tears that she had been trying so hard to hold back instantly rolled down the corners of her eyes.
Even she herself was confused and lost:
Wasn't she supposed to have a child with the person before her?
Now, her wish is about to be fulfilled.
Why did she feel so wronged? Was she unwilling?
As long as the goal can be achieved, what does the process and attitude matter?
She bit her lip and tried to convince herself: since it has happened, I'll just make the best of it.
Feeling that she suddenly stopped moving, Xia Muyan, who was in a frenzy, seemed to have regained some clarity. He raised his head slightly and found that she was closing her eyes, tears flowing like a spring. His heart suddenly twitched...
He kissed her tears passionately, which tasted salty and bitter, just like his mood at the moment.
"Don't cry," he said. "Shu'er, I'm sorry, please don't cry!"
For some reason, seeing her cry made him feel extremely distressed and inexplicably fluttering: had he unknowingly pushed her further away from him?
"I was wrong. I won't do it again next time." He pleaded in a low voice with a hoarse voice, and got up from her with difficulty.
She covered her arms, crying silently, and did not answer her.
Xia Muyan lifted her sleeve and took a look. Her arm was covered in a large red circle. He felt very regretful and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know..." He didn't know that the skin of the woman in front of him was so delicate, as if it were made of water.
If he had known this earlier, he would definitely not have treated her so rudely, and he would definitely not have had the time to take care of her.
Li Shushu only felt that his arms and neck were as if they were smeared with chili oil, and they were burning with pain.
She sat up with difficulty, raised her angry eyes, looked directly at him, and asked, "Your Highness, what do you want? Back then, I finally mustered up the courage to escape the marriage, and I escaped after a narrow escape. I didn't want to come back, but you insisted on forcing me to come back.
It hasn't been a few days yet, and His Highness is doing this again. What's his reason?
Your Highness, do you find it amusing to repeatedly bully and tease a weak woman like this?"
Li Shushu asked while crying, Xia Muyan panicked even more, he had never faced such a scene before, "No, Shu'er, you misunderstood"
He sat on the edge of the bed, stretched out his long arms, and embraced her. "That wasn't my original intention. I just felt that Xia Muyu wasn't a good match. Now that I'm back and have enough power, I want to rescue you from him as soon as possible."
Li Shushu struggled out of his embrace, choking with tears in her eyes as she said, "He's not a good match? Then who is? Is it you, Your Highness the Crown Prince?"
Don't forget, you were the one who personally sent someone to send me back!"
Xia Muyan was very panicked by her repeated questioning, but the more panicked he was, the more clumsy his words became. "No, I..."
Seeing that he seemed to be hesitant to speak and was tongue-tied, Li Shushu interrupted him impatiently.
"Your Highness, there is no need to say more. If Your Highness still remembers the friendship we had in the mountain stronghold, please let me go back as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if everyone knows about it, it will be a disgrace to Your Highness's reputation. I cannot bear the consequences...
"That's absolutely impossible!" Xia Muyan refused decisively. He had his own persistence.
"I was inconsiderate when I sent Shu'er back to Kyoto that day. I apologize.
"But I'm already trying my best to find a way to remedy the situation!" He said anxiously, "Shu'er, just rest well in the East Palace these few days. Don't worry about other things. I will take care of it for you!"
"It's getting late today, Shu'er, go to bed early. I'm leaving first." It was obvious that Li Shushu was in a very bad mood today and had a bad attitude. Xia Muyan was afraid that she would say something even more heartless, so he left without waiting for her answer.
Only Leng Qi was left, leading a group of secret guards to protect the surroundings.
After Xia Muyan left, Li Shushu was still full of thoughts at first, but soon, he could not resist the sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep.
She didn't know that Xia Muyan came back just to apply medicine on her wrists - he was still thinking about her wrists, neck, and shoulders that were red because of his roughness.
After applying the medicine, he stood by her bed for a long time.
In the past, he didn't know what to do with her. He was afraid that he would accidentally hurt her in his revenge, so he had to drive her away and push her away.
Now, he regretted it and took her back to his side, but her attitude made him at a loss as to what to do.
However, he was also thankful: at least she was by his side now.
As long as she stays by his side, he can take his time with other things. He is not in a hurry!
After returning home, he finally had a good night's sleep, feeling at ease. He hadn't slept all night for several days.
