When he looked back, Huo Cenji only saw surprise and joy in Tang Yu's eyes.
His expression softened, and when he spoke again, his tone was much gentler:
"Yes, I am here."
But he suddenly changed the subject. Although not as sharp as before, he spoke with a somewhat calm tone that an elder usually has:
"If I hadn't come, how would I have known that Your Majesty was so tired of taking medicine?"
Tang Yu couldn't help but swallow his saliva, knowing that Huo Cenji had heard what he had just said, so under that oppressive gaze, Tang Yu gritted his teeth and explained:
"Actually, I'm not that bored..."
It's just really bitter.
"It's okay. Since Your Majesty doesn't want to drink, I don't mind helping Your Majesty." Huo Cenji interrupted Tang Yu with a smile on his face.
Tang Yu: "...Hmm?"
He looked at Huo Cenji with puzzled eyes, as if he didn't understand what he meant by "helping him".
But the next second, Tang Yu understood——
Huo Cenji held the jade bowl in his slender jade-like hands, brought it to his mouth, took a sip calmly, and then walked straight towards Tang Yu.
Although Tang Yu had guessed what Huo Cenji was going to do, he was still stunned when those slightly cool but soft lips touched him.
It was not until the bitter medicine flowed over his soft lips and tongue and the bitter taste spread in Tang Yu's mouth that he came to his senses and looked at Huo Cenji in surprise.
There was no trace of panic in Huo Cenji's calm eyes, as if what he was doing was normal and natural.
Tang Yu swallowed the bitter medicine unconsciously. Before he could come to his senses, he felt the cold yet soft touch on his lips again.
Tang Yu: “…”
So this is how I help him.
Tang Yu suddenly understood and had a complete enlightenment.
Until the end, when the bowl of black medicine was finally empty, Huo Cenji slowly withdrew and left, putting some distance between himself and Tang Yu.
Huo Cenji casually placed the jade bowl on the table, and when the base landed on the wooden table, it made a slight noise.
His lips were much more red and swollen than before, and there were even medicine stains on his lips, but Huo Cenji didn't care much. He wiped them off casually with the back of his hand and looked at Tang Yu with a smile in his eyes:
"In this case, Your Majesty, are you willing to take the medicine?"
All medicines are poisonous, but Huo Cenji doesn't think so.
As long as Tang Yu is really willing to take the medicine and swallow it, it doesn't matter if he tests the poison on himself.
Even if it is to force Tang Yu in this way.
Tang Yu moved his lips with difficulty, as if he wanted to speak, but he didn't utter a word for a long time.
The fear in his heart was like a huge wave, and he couldn't calm down for a while.
No... When did Huo Cenji become so skilled?
And just now, Huo Cenji claimed to be feeding him medicine, but it wasn't his illusion that he took the opportunity to bite the corners of his mouth a few times, right?
No way?
This world is indeed abnormal.
Tang Yu finally came to a firm conclusion.
Huo Cenji looked at Tang Yu who was silent for a long time, and naturally understood that his action did make Tang Yu feel confused and surprised.
After all... he had never been nice to Tang Yu before.
Huo Cenji was about to explain when Tang Yu's stiff body suddenly moved, and then he said in a tentative tone:
"There seems to be something bitter in my mouth..."
When Huo Cenji heard this, he pursed his lips and said inwardly with annoyance:
"I actually forgot to prepare some preserves."
As Huo Cenji was thinking about it, he was about to ask someone to prepare some, but Tang Yu's slightly cold hand grabbed the corner of his clothes.
Tang Yu looked at him with those gentle and affectionate eyes, smiled slightly and said softly:
"...But your mouth is a little sweet..."
When Huo Cenji heard those words, his heart moved slightly, as if being blown by a spring breeze.
As for how he later lost his mind and walked over to hug Tang Yu and kissed her in a daze, he had completely forgotten everything.
He only remembered—
Tang Yu said that his mouth was sweet.
*
Their intertwined breaths were so intimate that they were inseparable. The kiss that had been absent for a long time gradually began to go out of control.
Tang Yu stroked Huo Cenji's slender waist with both hands and pushed him forward. The distance was so close that it seemed like they would stick together in the next second.
Huo Cenji's head was groggy, and he seemed to have opened his eyes in a blur, but what he saw were Tang Yu's gentle and affectionate eyes, so his long eyelashes trembled, and he simply closed his eyes and thought nothing.
In the end, the two of them didn't even know when they separated. In the silent palace, all they could hear was each other's heavy breathing and the rumbling heartbeats in their chests.
Apart from the fact that his clothes were slightly messy, there was nothing else unusual about Huo Cenji.
Tang Yu, on the other hand, was not only breathing heavily, but his face was also unusually red.
So, between breaths, Tang Yu secretly made up his mind -
"We can't go on like this."
What will happen if my body continues to be like this?
No! Absolutely not!
Huo Cenji looked at Tang Yu like this, and suddenly felt a little angry with himself.
"Why did you follow Tang Yu so foolishly?"
He has no self-control. Don't you also have the same problem of not knowing what's important?
The voice of rebuke in his heart echoed righteously in Huo Cenji's mind, but Huo Cenji could not deceive himself.
Perhaps he was willing to sink.
So at that moment, he put everything behind him.
Now that I'm sober, I'm a little more rational and regretful that I shouldn't have done that.
Huo Cenji's hand naturally reached out to pat Tang Yu's back gently, his lips tightly pursed, feeling somewhat helpless about his own inconsistency.
