Qi Yu raised his half-closed eyes slightly.
Gu Chi stood in front of the Buddha statue, his obsidian-black eyes meeting the Buddha's compassionate eyes without any respect.
He chuckled, "I guess Master Qi's sincerity has moved the heavens."
Qi Yu glanced at him coldly, his expression bright and clear, "Don't worry about it, Master."
After saying that, he turned around and got on the carriage.
The Princess's Mansion.
Jiang Zhan leaned against the bed, his face pale and his body looked inexplicably weak and thin.
The corners of the eyes are bright red.
Eyelashes tremble slightly.
It's really pitiful.
Qi Yu stood in front of the window, looking at the young man coldly, his gaze slowly falling on the frowning girl beside him. The girl had snow-white skin, and her beautiful eyes were filled with worry and heartache.
Jiang Zhan coughed twice, his voice soft and aggrieved, "...Your Highness."
"Hmm?" Pan Shu's left hand was tightly held by the boy, so she had to use her other hand to gently pat his back. "Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
The boy shook his head slightly, obediently.
Suddenly, he seemed to be frightened and his whole body trembled.
Pan Shu frowned slightly and looked in the direction he was looking, only to find that it was Qi Yu. She was slightly stunned, not knowing how long Qi Yu had been standing there.
Seeing that Pan Shu's attention was taken away by Qi Yu.
The boy's face darkened for a moment.
"Your Highness..." Jiang Zhan lowered his eyes, his thick, long, black eyelashes casting a shadow on his lower eyelids, covering the surging emotions in his eyes. He bit his lip, "Your Highness, please don't blame Master Qi, okay? Ziqian believes that Master Qi didn't mean it... Master Qi just made a mistake for a moment, I... I understand."
really.
The girl's expression, which had originally relaxed, turned cold again.
Jiang Zhan curved his pale lips provocatively.
Qi Yu stood at the door, the flickering light completely went out. He moved his lips, and his face turned pale in an instant.
"Your Highness."
"You said you loved me and protected me."
Pan Shu looked at him, her slightly drooping lazy eyes surging with complex emotions, "You can explain."
Qi Yu twitched his lips and smiled uncomfortably, "Would you believe it?"
The atmosphere suddenly became stagnant and quiet.
It has just arrived in spring, but the air still seems to carry a chill of spring.
otherwise--
Why did he feel cold all over?
His limbs were cold, and the heartbeat in his chest was slow and dull, until in the end, there was no movement at all, as if he was dead.
Qi Yu's eyes slowly turned red.
"Qi Yu..."
The girl loved him after all, and seeing him like this made her feel particularly uncomfortable. She was about to speak when Jiang Zhan's slender, bony hand gently pressed hers, and she was about to cry, "Your Highness, did Ziqian do something wrong?"
Pan Shu raised her eyebrows imperceptibly.
Jiang Zhan's rank is quite high.
Qi Yu was arrogant and proud, and he didn't even bother to explain, so he naturally fell into Jiang Zhan's trap.
No problem.
Qi Yu's temper also needs to be tempered.
After a few days, thanks to the highly effective ointment that Ban Shu obtained from the imperial physician in the palace, Jiang Zhan's injuries healed quickly.
Pan Shu stood aside, staring at Jiang Zhan's joyful expression, and said thoughtfully:
"You've been in the mansion for quite some time now, and your aunt might be worried. I'll send someone to take you back home today to recuperate."
The boy's fingertips paused slightly.
The silver bracelet on the wrist made a harsh and unpleasant bell sound when it collided.
The corners of Jiang Zhan's slightly round almond-shaped eyes were tinged with crimson. He pursed his lips in panic, "Did Ziqian do something wrong? Why did His Highness chase Ziqian away...?"
Did that bitch Qi Yu say something?
Jiang Zhan thought resentfully.
Ban Shu sighed helplessly and raised her hand to touch the boy's soft, jet-black hair, but he was very tall, and her fingertips curled slightly. Just as she was about to withdraw her hand, the boy suddenly lowered his head obediently and gently placed her snow-white hand on his hair.
He rubbed it dependently.
"It's okay, sister. No matter what I do," the boy's voice became hoarse, as if he was about to burst into tears. "Ziqian doesn't blame me."
Perhaps Jiang Zhan's tactic of retreating to advance was too effective.
Even Pan Shu softened her heart.
Her brows softened a little, "Qi Yu has been unhappy during the time you've been at home."
"Perhaps, he minds your presence."
Pan Shu said it bluntly.
Jiang Zhan's expression didn't change much, he just maintained a pitiful look.
The gloomy eyes were slightly cold.
Do you mind his existence...?
Then why don’t you just die?
The only one who can stand beside His Highness is him, and only him.
As for the others, let them all die.
Ban Shu ordered someone to pack up Jiang Zhan's things and was about to send them back to the Zhong Mansion when Jiang Zhan gave an awkward laugh, "Your Highness, are you going to completely draw a line between you and Ziqian?"
"I'm not..." The girl was a little at a loss.
The young man smiled brightly, "Then let's leave all these things here, okay? Ziqian is also very greedy, so let this room be left to him, okay? Don't let the people in the capital laugh at me for being kicked out by His Highness..."
His voice was clear and with a slightly coquettish tone, "Okay?"
"Um."
Panshu agreed.
The glimmer in the boy's eyes flickered slightly, and the curve of his lips gradually deepened.
Not long after Jiang Zhan got on the carriage and left, Pan Shu stood there and watched for a while. When she turned around and saw Qi Yu behind her, she was slightly stunned.
She was about to step forward, but Qi Yu just glanced at her coldly.
Pan Shu narrowed her eyes, "Where are you going?"
Tianzhu was carrying a bag on his back.
Qi Yu said calmly, "Thank you for taking me in, Your Highness. I will not bother you anymore in the future."
"You're leaving?"
Qi Yu glanced at her and hummed softly.
"Where are you going? Do you have anywhere else to go?" Pan Shu sneered. She crossed her arms over her chest and for the first time showed such a strong aura of a superior in front of Qi Yu. "Qi Yu, you are so naive."
"Your mother has committed a grave offense. Everyone in the capital is waiting to see you, Master Qi, make a fool of yourself. I used to protect you, but others, out of concern for the royal family, dared not take action against you. If you were to step out of the Princess's residence today, rumors of my dislike for you would spread like wildfire. Do you think you could still lead a good life then? I'm afraid everyone would want to step on you."
Pan Shu curled her lips, "What people in this world love most is to flatter the powerful and look down on the weak, especially when they look down on someone like you, Master Qi, who once stood on top of the world. People will be very happy to do so."
Qi Yu looked at her quietly.
"So, what does Your Highness want?"
"Don't go." Pan Shu sighed, "You know I love you."
Qi Yu's expression was moved, and a moist light flashed in his eyes, "But you don't believe me. You believe Jiang Zhan but you don't believe me."
