Speaking of Li Xing, Su Changzhao always saw his eyes red these days, as if it was because she had wasted her time to save Yu Jiuchen.

A friend in need is a friend indeed.

This shows that Li Xing is a loyal person.

Su Changzhao had just woken up at this moment. If someone else came, she would not bother to pay attention to them, but if it was Li Xing, she would still respond lazily.

"What is it?"

Hearing Su Changzhao's voice, Li Xing's tense face suddenly relaxed, and he immediately said, "Your Highness, may I come in? I haven't seen you for a day."

Su Changzhao: “…”

[What the hell is this statement that sounds like love talk! ]

Waited for a while.

"Come in."

After getting Su Changzhao's permission, Li Xing immediately pushed the door open with a happy look on his face.

But even though he was eager, he entered very carefully, as if he did not dare to disturb Su Changzhao.

When he arrived at the bedside and saw Su Changzhao's face gradually recovering, the worry that had been lingering on Li Xing's brow finally eased.

"You are worried. I am fine. Even though I have lost my martial arts skills, I still have power and will be able to protect you."

Most of the people following Su Changzhao were rescued from the people and trained by the original owner Su Changzhao during the war in the past.

Even though Su Changzhao was only in his teens at the time, he was a villain after all, and he had the level of a contemporary martial arts master in his teens.

So she is not much different in age from these subordinates.

And their outstanding martial arts skills were all learned from her.

Su Changzhao provided them with food and clothing and taught them martial arts.

The grace of saving a life and the grace of giving birth to a new life, added together, is greater than heaven.

They vowed to follow Su Changzhao to the death.

Among them, Li Xing was an exception. His background was much better than others. Even though his father was only an editor in the Hanlin Academy, he was at least a seventh-rank official.

The Li family is a scholarly family. If there had not been an injustice in that year, Li Xing might have studied hard for ten years like other scholarly children, passed the imperial examinations, and finally entered the court as an official.

Whenever he saw Li Xing, Su Changzhao felt sorry for him, but he himself could not feel it.

For example, now, when he heard Su Changzhao say that he was useless, he still wanted to protect them.

Li Xing almost burst into tears.

The tall and strong young man's eyes immediately turned red. He knelt down in front of Su Changzhao and blamed himself, "It's my fault for not doing my job well. If it weren't for my incompetence, you wouldn't have to..."

He should be talking about Su Changzhao sending him to find Xiao Qinsu.

"Please allow me to pass on my power to you as compensation for my past!"

"..."Su Changzhao knew that since Li Xing could say it, he would definitely be able to do it.

Others may be flashy and empty talk, but not Li Xing.

Seeing his firm tone and serious look, Su Changzhao felt as if he had not raised his child in vain and burst into tears.

Holding back the tears of emotion, Su Changzhao waved his hands and said, "Forget it. Your skills are not enough to fill my gaps. Rather than both of us being useless, you might as well keep your skills and do your best to protect me in the future."

Li Xing's eyes were burning: "Even if Qiansui didn't say it, I would definitely do it!"

Seeing that he was still serious, Su Changzhao immediately smiled and said, "Okay, go do whatever you need to do. I'll sleep for a while."

"Yes, I will report to His Majesty that you have not recovered yet and it is not appropriate to see him..."

"Wait, what is this?"

Before Li Xing finished speaking, Su Changzhao sat up in shock.

Just as Li Xing was about to explain himself, a familiar voice was heard outside the door.

"It seems I came at the wrong time."

Li Xing consciously stepped aside.

Su Changzhao opened his eyes wide and saw that the person who came in was Yu Jiuchen, and was immediately stunned.

[It’s really him! ]

When I saw Yu Jiuchen again, I don’t know why, the scene of our lovemaking that day kept appearing in front of my eyes.

Also includes...certain physical memories.

Su Changzhao subconsciously pulled the quilt over and wrapped it around himself, leaving only his head exposed.

Yu Jiuchen wanted to listen to her inner thoughts and understand her actions, but what he heard was...

[Why is he here? Isn't there enough for him to do in the palace? ]

After hearing this, Yu Jiuchen felt a little disappointed.

Doesn't she want to see herself?

When he was poisoned and unconscious that day, he clearly heard Su Changzhao was very worried about his safety.

Those intermittent words spoken in dreams cannot be false.

Now that she sees me, she is actually unhappy?

Next second.

Yu Jiuchen was shocked by his own thoughts.

When did he start to care about a man's thoughts? Besides, strictly speaking, the other party was not even a man.

At most... half of it.

Just when Yu Jiuchen was angry for not knowing why he was angry, he heard Su Changzhao say weakly.

"Please forgive me for not being able to perform the ritual, ahem..."

Yu Jiuchen felt a little distressed when he saw that her tone was light and no longer as clear and powerful as before.

"Chang Zhao didn't have to do this. If Chang Zhao hadn't risked his life to save me, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to talk to you now."

Yu Jiuchen sat down beside the bed and personally helped Su Changzhao to move his back.

Even though the quilt was put down, his behavior and expression made everyone present feel that he really cared about Su Changzhao and was willing to condescend to help her relieve her anger.

Seeing this, Su Changzhao really started coughing.

"Cough cough cough..." Choked by saliva.

"Changzhao?" Seeing that Su Changzhao's face turned red from coughing, Yu Jiuchen immediately turned his head and said, "Water, bring some water."

Su Changzhao pretended to drink the water that Yu Jiuchen fed him.

"Your Majesty...I am sorry to trouble you." She said as she dodged the hand that Yu Jiuchen extended to her again.

Now, whenever she saw his hands...those long fingers, she thought of the day when he held her wrist and held her fingers tightly...the blushing scene.

"Chang Zhao, why is your face...red?"

Hearing this, Su Changzhao quickly reached his paw out from under the quilt and touched his face.

"Ah? Maybe it's too hot. Too hot."

Yu Jiuchen was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. "It's hot, but why are you wrapped so thickly? You must be sweating. Come on, loosen the quilt, take off your clothes, and I'll wipe your sweat off."

When he heard that she had to take off her clothes, Yu Jiuchen even wiped her sweat personally!

For others, this is a great honor, but for Su Changzhao, this is a disaster!

Su Changzhao dodged Yu Jiuchen even more fiercely.

“No, no, no, no…”

"Haha, why are you embarrassed? There are no outsiders here, it won't cause any trouble."

“No, really no need!!”

"If you don't change your sweaty clothes in time, you will easily catch a cold, and it will be bad if you get sick." Yu Jiuchen pulled the quilt hard.

"No need! Really no need! I can do it myself!" Su Changzhao struggled desperately, rolling on the ground like a top.

Yu Jiuchen had never seen her like this before, and his desire to conquer her was immediately aroused: "Now that I'm here, let me help you."

The tone was gentle, but the hands were very strong.

One tried hard to wrap it, and the other tried hard to pull it.

For a while.

Li Xing, who was standing nearby, and the palace servants who came in with Yu Jiuchen were all stunned.

Is this still the Majesty and Nine Thousand Years Old that they know?

Only Yu Jiuchen could hear Su Changzhao’s inner roar.

[Get lost! Dog emperor, take your dog paws away! ]

【Don't get close to me! 】
