Chapter 53: Angry out of shame
"Never regret it?"
"Yes, I won't regret it, as long as you save her."
Jiao Ran was puzzled as to what they were dealing with, as if they were negotiating. "What are you talking about, regret or not?"
"Shut up! This is all your fault. You shouldn't have come back. Wouldn't it be better to die outside?"
After hearing this, Jiaoran felt the words stuck in his throat, unable to come out.
Yuan Jianlu frowned, "Don't be so mean, she wanted to jump out to protect her junior sister, can you stop her?"
"In my opinion, it's not Jiaoran's fault. They are sisters with deep affection. She never thought that Zhuxing would be poisoned." Mei Wan'er also agreed.
Bu Yue didn't want to waste any more words, "Go ahead and save him."
"Don't be impatient, there's still time." She tortured everyone.
Jiao Ran lost his patience, "I'll kill you! Let's see if you can save my senior sister."
Bu Yue understood Xu Mengchou's character, "Jiao Ran, step back."
Jiaoran let go of her throat. Just now, she could break her neck with a slight twist, but her eyes were full of pride and provocation, as if she was not afraid of Jiaoran killing her at all.
"What do you want in exchange for saving my senior sister? Even if you want to kill me, I will—"
"Hey, hey, hey, keep your life to yourself. I'm not interested."
"Then what do you want, Gao Shan Shou? I'm willing to help you get it, as long as you save my senior sister."
"As for the secret manual, you people from the Central Plains can fight over it however you want. It's none of my business. I'm not interested."
"Then what do you want?" Mei Wan'er asked.
Her eyes immediately flashed with a sly smile, "Bu Yue, I only want you."
Jiaoran and Mei Wan'er were silent. Jiaoran looked at Bu Yue. It turned out that he had known for a long time that Xu Mengchou only wanted him, so he was hesitating.
"I want you to never see her again. You must return to Nanzhao with me. I will be the Holy Maiden, and you will be my Holy Servant, accompanying me for the rest of my life."
Jiao Ran's eyes widened. "How dare you kick someone when they're down? My senior sister is dying. Even if you wanted to fight her, now wouldn't be the time. Taking advantage of someone's misfortune is truly despicable."
She spread her hands and said, "How? What are you going to do with me?"
Jiaoran was filled with hatred, "Damn it!"
"You want to kill me again, right?" She showed her her throat and leaned her head closer. "Twist my head off, and I'll give you the same condition."
"I promise you." Several people heard Bu Yue say this.
"Then, Jiaoran, please be a witness."
"……I?"
"Don't you people in the Central Plains always say that a promise is worth a thousand gold? I don't want a thousand gold, I just want him alone."
It was really tricky. Jiao Ran didn't know what to do for a moment. "I can't do this. Do you know how long Senior Sister has been waiting for him? When Senior Sister wakes up, how am I going to explain it to her? She will be in agony. You witch!"
"Yes, I am the demon girl. Do you want the demon girl to save your senior sister?"
"When she wakes up, I will explain to her. Don't tell her what happened today. Don't tell her at all." Bu Yue said.
When Xu Mengchou heard this, she clapped her hands lightly twice, and a small silver snake immediately emerged from her hair. She exhaled a puff of mist and blew it towards Zhuxing.
As the silver bell rang, the little snake disappeared in a flash.
She shook the bell on her wrist, and as her rhythm became faster and faster, jingle, jingle...
It seemed as if something in Zhuxing's chest was about to break through his flesh and blood.
She shook violently and a large amount of blood spurted out of her throat.
In the light of the campfire, several people saw several black worms crawling in the blood.
Xu Mengchou called the little snake over and said, "Go, I'll give you a snack."
As she spoke, she lifted Zhuxing's chin and stuffed a pill into her mouth.
"Okay, it's done."
"Then my senior sister will wake up soon?" Jiaoran was still worried. Her senior sister's face was so pale, without any color on her lips.
She was still injured and her recovery was slow. In order to stop Jiaoran from pestering her and to reassure Bu Yue, Xu Mengchou said, "She'll wake up in a few days."
He said to Bu Yue, "Now that I have saved her, you should come back with me."
Bu Yue said, "When she wakes up, I will naturally go with you without saying anything."
"Do you suspect that I'm lying and didn't save her?" Xu Mengchou's cheeks flushed with anger.
Jiaoran also didn't want his senior sister to not see Bu Yue after she woke up. "Why don't you wait a little longer? Didn't you say she'll wake up in a few days? When she wakes up, you can let Bu Yue go with you."
Xu Mengchou couldn't wait any longer. If she woke up and acted pitifully again, giving in to Bu Yue's soft heart, wouldn't she lose both the wife and the army? She couldn't wait any longer.
"Are you so anxious to take him away? What are you afraid of? I'll fight with you once I'm better. What's so good about him? I've already said that we're done and she won't bother with him anymore. Besides, what's so good about him? He's black and ugly, like a crow. How can he be so popular?"
Hearing this, Bu Yue's brows jumped, "Shut up."
Jiaoran was afraid that his senior sister would be truly upset if she woke up, so he tried to get Xu Mengchou to relent, saying, "Bu Yue is truly despicable. Look at him." Jiaoran pushed Yuan Jianlu forward. "He has a slender figure, is young and handsome, and looks free and uninhibited. Isn't he a hundred times better than my useless senior brother?"
Yuan Jianlu's face flushed as he looked at Mei Wan'er, fearing the enchantress would pester him. He hurriedly said, "Hey, Jiaoran, don't talk nonsense. Miss Qiu of Xumeng... and your senior brother are destined to be together in this life. How can I break up someone's marriage? Don't talk nonsense."
Self-conceited, huh, who would like him, Xu Mengchou curled his lips, "Don't say so much nonsense, don't you want me to give up Bu Yue and give him to your senior sister? I won't."
Now that she has saved her, even if it means breaking the contract, she will still fight for her senior sister. "Okay, then don't blame me."
Xu Mengchou did not retreat but advanced, "You want to kill me again? I saved your senior sister, but you went back on your word and broke the agreement so quickly. You people from the Central Plains are all shameless. No wonder your mother killed your father. Your whole family is like this."
Jiao Ran was furious and was about to teach her a lesson, but Bu Yue stopped him, "Can you please stop interfering?"
Jiao Ran said, "But if you really leave, how can I explain this to my senior sister? You know how she kept her promise to you every day when you were kicked out of the house by my mother, waiting for you to come back."
Bu Yue was extremely confused. He knew that Zhu Xing was a stubborn girl. Once she made up her mind, she would do it even if it meant death.
She had to die once.
Otherwise, how can you survive from death?
There is always a bright future after a dark period.
He wanted Zhuxing to live well even without him in the future.
Everyone thought they would stay here for a long time, but for some reason, she woke up the next day, but she looked as bad as a corpse that had just crawled out of the ground.
As soon as she opened her eyes, Jiaoran approached her. She touched her forehead and said in surprise, "Senior Sister, are you awake?"
There was still a taste of blood in her mouth, so she nodded without saying anything.
