Chapter 249 Drinking or Not Drinking
Yu Zhuo's fingertips paused, a look of confusion appeared in his eyes. He frowned but still held the wine in the glass in his mouth without swallowing it.
He can't be as heartless as Zhou Yanshu.
Zhou Yanshu withdrew his hand, and he and Yu Zhuo put the wine glass back on the table, then returned to their original positions.
"He didn't drink." Zhou Yanshu clasped his hands and placed them on the blanket on his legs.
As he spoke, his silver eyes glanced at Yu Zhuo beside him, "He just deliberately told me that he was going to go out and vomit."
Yu Zhuo: “?”
"Maybe he doesn't want to marry me and wants to humiliate me."
Yu Zhuo: “…”
This jerk not only cheats himself, but also makes life difficult for others.
Yu Zhuo glanced upwards secretly and saw the face of the mermaid priest holding a torch suddenly change. He immediately rolled his Adam's apple and swallowed the wedding wine in his mouth.
"I don't know what the late king meant by these words." Yu Zhuo turned his eyes away and said calmly, "I drank all the wine. Poseidon, please don't slander me without any basis."
He spoke without any discomfort, and it was obvious that he swallowed the wine in that one or two seconds.
Zhou Yanshu looked at him, snorted coldly and did not react.
The priest stood upright on the steps. Seeing this, he had guessed about 70% of the actual situation.
This deliberately facilitated wedding was devoid of royal honor and was filled with indifference and sarcasm.
Zhou Yanshu's situation was special, needless to say. He was arranged to remarry right after he woke up, and his partner was a low-level Alpha. He must have hated Yu Zhuo for a long time. The two of them...
The priest sighed. He knew Zhou Yanshu's methods. At this time, he could only pray that Yu Zhuo, the cat that came ashore, could live a few more days.
Yu Zhuo and Zhou Yanshu simply went through the ceremony and ended the Poseidon wedding.
Zhou Yanshu was unable to attend the second half of the event due to his paralyzed legs, so he returned to the bridal chamber early. Yu Zhuo still had to go outside to toast the royal family to express his gratitude to His Majesty for granting him the marriage.
When Zhou Yanshu left, the servants outside had already left. They had received instructions and had deliberately timed their exit from the palace, leaving Zhou Yanshu alone in a wheelchair.
Zhou Yanshu's legs were paralyzed and he could hardly walk, so he needed help from others when he entered the palace. Now the servants had left, no doubt deliberately trying to embarrass him.
Yu Zhuo didn't rush out. He stepped out of the door, took a quick look at the surrounding scene, and then stopped.
Zhou Yanshu did not hesitate too much. When he went out and saw that there was no one outside, he controlled the wheelchair and moved forward slowly. Yuzhuo followed behind him. Every time Zhou Yanshu moved forward a certain distance, Yuzhuo also took a step forward.
Zhou Yanshu had already noticed it. He withdrew his hands and glanced at Yu Zhuo: "Watching the show?"
"No." Yu Zhuo looked away, "The road is too narrow, you are blocking me."
Zhou Yanshu's face turned slightly cold: "Then take a detour."
"You are so domineering. You have to walk this road alone?" Yu Zhuo felt funny. Zhou Yanshu always spoke sharply to others. Now he finally understood it.
"Hey, I can carry you back. How long are you going to push like this?" Yu Zhuo bent down and moved closer to Zhou Yanshu, wanting to see the subtle expressions on his face. "What do you think? As long as you apologize to me, I will help you."
Zhou Yanshu raised his eyebrows and said, "I apologize to you?"
"Shouldn't you? That wine...that words...I told you everything, but you sold me out in the blink of an eye. Do you think that's appropriate?"
The bright lights in the corridor were flickering. Yu Zhuo bent down, casting a light shadow on Zhou Yan's legs and abdomen.
Zhou Yanshu turned his head and closed his eyes and said, "Am I wrong? Didn't you vomit after all?"
Yu Zhuo had been to dozens of worlds, so he had learned from Shen Yu how to spit out the water he had drunk and which acupoints to press.
"That's because I'm smart. Otherwise, I would have been tricked by you." Yu Zhuo lifted the edge of Zhou Yanshu's clothes and whispered, "If you tell me that you are wrong and will never do it again, I will forgive you and hug you."
Zhou Yanshu: "..."
This plot seems to be different from what he has encountered before.
Zhou Yanshu's palms, half hidden in his sleeves, felt cold. His mind was confused. He only remembered that most of the soul fragments he had encountered in the past were indifferent and would never approach him on their own initiative.
The piece on Yuzhuo's body is unusual.
Looks like we need to change our strategy.
Zhou Yanshu lowered his eyelashes, and the lips on the lower half of his face that was exposed were tightly drawn. After a long while, he uttered only one word: "...No."
Yu Zhuo felt the coldness on his skin. He looked at Zhou Yanshu, who quickly pulled his sleeves back without making any sound.
Yu Zhuo sighed inwardly. Zhou Yanshu's legs were powerless and still clenched together lifelessly. It was hard to estimate how long it would take to recover.
Yu Zhuo stood up and was about to speak when he saw the figure of a mermaid falling from the corner of the corridor out of the corner of his eye.
There were guards spying in secret.
"You..." Yu Zhuo suddenly changed his tone when he was about to say something. He pulled Zhou Yanshu's wheelchair towards him violently and raised his voice, "Whatever I say is what it is! I am your Alpha, do you know that?!"
Zhou Yanshu almost fell to the ground. He grabbed the armrest of the wheelchair and said coldly in the shadows: "Yu Zhuo——"
Yu Zhuo completely ignored his gaze and resistance. He took two steps forward and directly picked up Zhou Yanshu, with an uncertain expression on his face: "Don't waste my time."
Zhou Yanshu tightly grasped Yuzhuo's arm. Yuzhuo held him up by the waist, with his unconscious legs half hanging in the air.
He raised his eyes and stared at Yu Zhuo, but saw that Yu Zhuo still had a stern expression on his face. He whispered to him, "Someone is here."
Zhou Yanshu grasped Yuzhuo's hand tightly and then released it. He said nothing, pursed his lips and stopped struggling.
The two of them disappeared at the end of the corridor, leaving only an empty wheelchair. The guard leaned against the wall and looked out until everything was quiet, then he turned around and left.
Yu Zhuo carried Zhou Yanshu back to the bridal chamber. The decoration inside was far less gorgeous and dazzling than outside. There were just some simple wedding characters pasted on it, and nothing else was left.
"Mr. Yu, His Majesty is still waiting for you, you can't..." The guard standing outside the door seemed to have hurried in. He was panting and looked into the house.
Yu Zhuo had just put Zhou Yanshu down. His body was so weak that he half leaned on Zhou Yanshu's neck to breathe. Zhou Yanshu sat stiffly on the edge of the bed, his face tense, and it was hard to tell how much repressed his emotions were.
The attendant nearly exploded on the spot. He gritted his teeth and repeated, "Mr. Yu, His Majesty and the guests outside are waiting for you. You can't do this."
Hearing the guard's voice, Yu Zhuo turned his eyes away. Without thinking too much, he stood up and said, "I'll go now."
