Chapter 03
The slender silver needle between Xin Liang's thumb and index finger shuttled back and forth on the base cloth, making a bang bang sound.
"What brings you here, General?"
"Is that so?" Lu Shenxing leaned over to take a look at the mess on the cloth, his eyes twitching. "This general accidentally cut his sleeve when he was passing by the garden."
Xin Liang frowned and said, "Just go find Qi Niang."
"How can she compare to a military advisor?" Lu Shenxing moved a stool and sat over, saying with a smile, "There's no time to lose, military advisor, come on."
After a long while, Xin Liang asked, "Color."
Lu Shenxing said, "Black."
Xin Liang touched the sewing basket next to him, pulled out a thread from the last row, and accurately passed it through the small hole of the silver needle. The whole process looked very easy.
"General, give me your sleeves."
Lu Shenxing stretched out his arm and pulled the torn part to him.
Looking at Xin Liang's serious expression and smooth movements, no one would believe that his needlework was so crooked and ugly.
Lu Shenxing thought that he probably couldn't wear these clothes anymore, but he still had to encourage him.
"Military Advisor, you sew really well."
Xin Liang's ears turned slightly red, but his words were harsh, "General, could you please stay away from me?"
Lu Shenxing moved closer and looked at Xin Liang up close. She had soft facial lines, skin as white as jade, slightly upturned lips, and plump lips. It must feel wonderful to hold them in her mouth.
This face is really beautiful, without any flaws. If the black cloth on the face is removed and the eyes can be seen, how amazing it would be.
"Military Advisor, you are not a woman, are you?"
The silver needle in Xin Liang's hand suddenly paused. What he hated most was others talking about his face, which was tantamount to humiliation.
"Would you like me to undress and show you whether it's a boy or a girl?"
Lu Shenxing cleared his throat and said, "No need."
Xin Liang took away the unfinished sleeve, touched the scissors and cut the thread. His meaning was simple and rude, and I got angry.
Lu Shenxing felt something was wrong, and then he heard a voice in his head, "Ding, target rejected, sewing mission failed, punishment begins, Mr. Lu, within ten seconds, please reach your left hand from behind your shoulder to touch your right ear."
Damn, you might as well kill me, Lu Shenxing’s face was gloomy, the system is a pervert.
Xin Liang, you've caused me so much trouble this time. You'll have to wait for the consequences.
After taking two deep breaths, Lu Shenxing steeled himself, gritted his teeth, and began to twist his arm to pieces.
With a click, Lu Shenxing's left arm dropped down, and his face turned pale instantly.
Xin Liang's ears moved, and he slowly shouted to the door, "Come here, take the general to see a doctor."
Then came Lu Shenxing's belated scream, "Ah——"
This was the first time Lu Shenxing experienced the pain of a dislocation, and he couldn't show the slightest bit of hurt in front of his subordinates.
Kang Shifu, who came to visit after hearing the news, stood aside with his arms folded, his eyes fixed on his nose and his nose focused on his mind. It seemed that he had no intention of leaving for the time being.
Tong Yi frowned and asked, "Military Advisor, what happened? Who hurt the general?"
It seems like he wants to pull someone out and beat him up.
Xin Liang turned his face towards Lu Shenxing and said calmly, "I want to know too."
The main person, Lu Shenxing, turned a deaf ear to it, changed his position and continued to lie down. He was so angry that he was almost injured and would explode at the slightest touch.
Someone just happened to run into the muzzle of the gun. Tong Yi muttered to himself, "This is really strange. Could it be that some Kuhai people have sneaked into the city..."
Lu Shenxing shouted coldly, "Get out!"
Tong Yi left in shame, and took away Kang Shifu, who was being used as a wooden stick.
The room became quiet.
Xin Liang stood there for a while, then slowly walked to the bed, frowned slightly, and asked softly, "General, why are you hurting yourself?"
Lu Shenxing suddenly raised his eyes and sneered, "It's all for you!"
Xin Liang was stunned.
It was quiet again for a moment.
Lu Shenxing turned his back, and Xin Liang stood there motionless, seemingly troubled by something.
A few days later, Xin Liang received a letter from home.
When Lu Shenxing found out, his expression changed. He thought that as long as Changzhou was not dead, the original plot would have been deviated, but he did not expect it to come back again.
This time, Xin Liang encountered robbers on the way back, and was then rescued by King Jing, and picked the chrysanthemum.
From that moment on, his fate will be one of despair and a miserable death.
Lu Shenxing said nothing. Following the voice of the system, a cold and desolate world appeared before him. It was gray and filled with hatred, sorrow, loneliness, and all negative emotions.
His mission is to change the tragic fate of all the protagonists in the tragic series, including Xin Liang, give them hope, and let them understand that the world is full of love.
His mission wasn't complete until their gray, dull world was transformed into color.
Being a good person is fucked up.
When Lu Shenxing ran out, he saw Xin Liang holding a gray cloth package and a four or five-foot-long bamboo, and he was already getting on the carriage.
"Stop!" Lu Shenxing shouted, "I order you to come down immediately!"
Xin Liang stopped when he heard this.
Lu Shenxing strode over, grabbed Xin Liang's wrist and pulled him down. His chest kept heaving and his breathing was rapid.
Xin Liang was appointed by the emperor and was given special privileges, so military orders played a very low role in his career.
The pain in his hand intensified. Xin Liang said calmly but firmly, "I must go home."
Lu Shenxing had a gloomy face. He could not leave without the emperor's summons, otherwise they could go on the road together. Even if he met King Jing, he just had to protect Xin Liang's chrysanthemums and prevent them from touching.
"The Xin family has long since left you no place. What are you going back for? Blindness isn't enough. Are you waiting for them to cripple your legs too?"
Xin Liang's expression changed slightly, like a cat being stepped on in a sore spot. He pursed his lips with a hint of disgust, "That's my family affair."
Do you fucking think I want to care about your life or death?
Lu Shenxing pinched Xin Liang's wrist until it turned red. He felt that he was quite despicable. What was the point of trying so hard to stop others from committing suicide?
"Let go." Xin Liang's voice was very soft.
"Shut up!" Lu Shenxing scolded harshly. He was anxiously trying to figure out how to persuade Xin Liang and was wondering if there was a solution that would satisfy both parties. He had no idea that his actions would appear to outsiders as if he was saying, "What will I do if you leave?"
Seeing the general and the military advisor arguing with each other, everyone present had their mouths opened wide, as if they knew something extraordinary.
