Chapter 150 Making Up for Mistakes 2
When mentioning Song Dynasty porcelain, Huai Zhen's eyes were complicated. "Nothing, just making up for a little mistake."
"Did you really use that method?" The old ghost was surprised and heartbroken. "That method is so vicious, why would you do that?"
Huai Zhen: "How can I be willing if I don't try?"
"No matter how unwilling you are, your sister is dead, and Huaiqin will never come back! After all these years, why are you still so stubborn?"
"Huai Qin shouldn't die. I'm the one who should die." Huai Jue's eyes were red, showing a rare mix of emotions, half anger, half... regret.
"I don't care why you're here, or what happened to Song Ci." Pei Ji interrupted their conversation with a hint of urgency and anxiety in his tone that he himself hadn't noticed.
Song Ci was awakened by the noisy sounds around him. He struggled to lift his heavy eyelids and heard Pei Ji's words.
Just as she was about to say she was fine, she heard Huai Jue's slightly sarcastic tone, "When you came in just now, I saw that she was looking for this medicine just for you. You need a woman to do this for you, what qualifications do you have to question me?"
"You!" Alin drew his sword without hesitation and took a few steps forward. As long as Pei Ji gave the order, he would chop at Huai Zhen without hesitation.
"Tell me, what happened to her and what did you do." Pei Ji's tone was still cold.
"What's wrong with her?" Huai Zhen said arrogantly, "Is this the attitude of begging for help?"
"Just tell me what you want."
Ah Lin gnashed his teeth in anger. When had his young master ever been threatened like this before? "Young Master, don't waste your words on him. Once we've captured him, we can slowly torture him."
"Catch me?" Huaizhen sneered, "I won't tell you. Let's see whether this girl can endure it or I can't."
Seeing that he refused to budge, Pei Ji was furious, but he couldn't do anything about it.
He was right, the appearance of Song Dynasty porcelain could not be wasted.
Interrogation takes time. This man acts strangely and without any rules. What can we do if he is really determined to kill Song Ci?
Song Ci's throat was hoarse. She wanted to speak but felt a tearing pain and could only make a weak sound. Several people were arguing so fiercely that no one noticed that she had woken up.
Song Ci:..........Look at me.
"Tell me what you want."
Huaizhen touched his chin and said, "My request is that you kneel down and I will save her."
"I might as well kill you. Who the hell do you think you are? You want my young master to kneel down in front of you!" A Lin was so angry that the blood rushed to his head. He didn't care about anything else and just wanted to kill this disgusting person in front of him immediately.
"Alin, I'll say it again, don't act impulsively."
Ah Lin's eyes were red, "Sir, who are you, how can you listen to this person?"
"Why not? Is it more important for me to lower my head than Miss Song's life..."
Everyone looked at Pei Ji in disbelief. Who was Pei Ji? He was a renowned figure throughout the Great Zhou Empire, a figure sought after by several princes and court officials. Yet, here he was, bowing to Huai Jin for the sake of the Song family's daughter.
Huai Zhen's eyes were full of surprise, but he quickly recovered, "Okay, just kneel down, and I will save her immediately. I promise that nothing will happen to her."
"good."
Pei Ji was about to stand up without any hesitation. Compared with Song Ci's life, what would it matter if he knelt?
Someone pulled his sleeve, and he turned his head in disbelief, meeting Song Ci's clear eyes.
Her eyes reflected his clear features and the anxiety on his face.
"You're awake."
Huai Zhen was annoyed, "You've done so much for him, so what if he kneels down for a while, can't you just pretend to be asleep?"
"Blackmailing others by humiliating them is not what I want." Song Ci was very firm.
"Stupid!" Huai Zhen was so angry that he didn't even look at her.
Pei Ji's face was filled with joy. "How are you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Lao Gui stepped forward to take her pulse and said, "It's okay, she's recovered." She was even in better shape than before. It seemed that Huai Jue was thoughtful and used a good prescription. Not only did he replenish what she had consumed, but he also repaired the problems left over from her previous body.
"I just feel a little weak." Song Ci tried to move, but his legs and feet were like noodles and he had no strength.
Huai Zhen pursed his lips. "This is normal. I made you a tonic soup. It will not only make up for what you've lost, but also repair your body's previous problems. Now your body is rebuilding itself."
Song Ci was stunned for a few seconds and said in a low voice: "Thank you."
"You're thanking me?" Huai Jue curled his lips, "Just now I wanted to take your life."
"Aren't you letting me live well?"
A gentleman's deeds are judged by his actions, not his heart; and no one is perfect by his heart. The Song family members were all talk and no action, all about being a family and helping each other, but when it mattered, they were powerless. They treated the third branch of the family like discarded trash, but Huai Zhen was tough-talking, but when it mattered, he couldn't bring himself to do it.
Song Ci also saw this and agreed to this condition, otherwise she would not have gambled with her own life.
"I'll take you away." Pei Ji said and simply picked up Song Ci and walked out.
As her body soared into the air, Song Ci subconsciously wrapped her arms around Pei Ji. When she turned back, her face flushed with shame. The two of them were really too close. She pressed her body against Pei Ji and could even feel the warmth from him.
The other person's unsteady breathing mixed with the faint smell of cedar could be heard in my ears.
After getting on the carriage, Pei Ji put her down carefully as if she were a fragile vase, and then wrapped her up tightly with the mattress at his side, until only a pair of lively eyes were exposed.
Song Ci suddenly remembered, "Where's Wanxiang!"
"Don't worry, A-Lin will go and get her back. Nothing will happen."
The carriage made a "thump thump thump" sound as it moved forward, but she was surprised to find that it was not heading towards the Song family. Seeing her look, Pei Ji explained, "It's probably not convenient for you to go back now."
She was touched by Pei Ji's attentiveness. Her mother and father were at home. If they saw her like this, they would definitely be scared. It would be better for her to wait until she felt a little better before going back.
This kind of thinking showed her extreme trust in Pei Ji, which she herself had not even realized at the moment.
Pei Ji was in a good mood. The coldness on his face disappeared, replaced by a hint of tenderness.
They did not go to Pei's house, but went to a farm. Song Ci guessed that this must have been secretly arranged by Pei Ji, so he dared to bring himself here.
When Alin came back, he brought the panicked Wanxiang with him. The moment she saw Song Ci, tears started to fall from her eyes. She stumbled into Song Ci's arms and burst into tears, "Miss, I thought I would never see you again. I was so scared. They locked me up, and I thought Miss, I thought Miss..."
