Chapter 24 You Provoked Me First
Nie Chubai frowned, opened his eyes, turned over and got out of bed, kicked Wen Yingxue and said, "Hey! Get up and go to bed."
Wen Yingxue opened her eyes drowsily, but her body felt sore and weak, and she didn't want to move at all. She shook her head.
Nie Chubai didn't waste any time and directly carried Wen Yingxue to the bed.
Wen Yingxue was very dizzy and ignored Nie Chubai's actions. As soon as she got to the bed, she wrapped herself in the quilt and continued to sleep.
Nie Chubai sat beside the bed, looking at Wen Yingxue's sleeping face.
"Knock knock knock!" Wen Yingxue was suddenly awakened by the sound of knocking on the door. She opened her eyes abruptly. It was still dark outside, and Nie Chubai was right beside her.
"What's going on? Are those men in black chasing us?" Wen Yingxue asked.
Nie Chubai shook his head, stood up and stood by the window, looking outside through the crack in the door.
The old lady went to open the door, and standing outside was the man in black who was chasing Wen Yingxue and the others.
"Did you see a man and a woman passing by today?" the man in black asked the old lady.
The old lady was frightened when she saw that several people were holding big knives in their hands. She subconsciously glanced towards the room where Wen Yingxue, Nie Chubai were.
Nie Chubai frowned, turned around, picked up Wen Yingxue, and jumped out of the window to escape.
The man in black sensed something was wrong with the old lady, so he immediately pushed her away and rushed into the house.
Looking at the open doors and windows, the man in black cursed inwardly and turned around and said, "They are nearby, hurry up and chase them."
"Nie Chubai, if we leave like this, what will happen to Auntie and the others?" Wen Yingxue asked worriedly.
Nie Chubai turned his head and looked behind him, saying, "They won't kill innocent people."
Wen Yingxue could only comfort herself in this way, and she felt a little regretful about staying there. The aunt's family was a good family, and if he lost his life because of them, it would be a great sin.
Nie Chubai soon felt someone approaching quickly from behind, and they were about to be surrounded.
Seeing a dilapidated thatched house in front of him, Nie Chubai pushed Wen Yingxue into the house.
"Don't open the door for anyone unless I call you." After saying that, Nie Chubai turned around and wanted to leave.
Wen Yingxue grabbed his hand and said, "You must be careful."
Nie Chubai glanced at Wen Yingxue with a burning gaze: "Anything else?"
Wen Yingxue was stunned for a moment, then said, "Don't get hurt. I'll be waiting for you."
Nie Chubai smiled, quickly moved closer, kissed Wen Yingxue hard, then turned and left.
"Wait for me, I'll be back soon."
Wen Yingxue touched her lips blankly, her heart wanting to cry but unable to. "Boss! That's not what I meant!"
Outside the thatched hut, there were already clanging sounds of weapons clashing. Nie Chubai had already started fighting with them.
Although Nie Chubai was injured, Wen Yingxue believed that those men in black would never be able to kill him.
Sure enough, the sound outside soon disappeared, and then Nie Chubai opened the door.
There was blood all over his body and face, and Wen Yingxue couldn't tell for a moment whether it was Nie Chubai's own or someone else's.
But this kind of Nie Chubai has the temperament of the villain in the original text, crazy and bloodthirsty, which makes Wen Yingxue unconsciously feel a little scared.
Originally, Nie Chubai was somewhat happy, but when he saw Wen Yingxue's frightened look, he frowned.
The Broken Edge Soft Sword was still in Nie Chubai's hand, dripping with blood. He approached Wen Yingxue step by step, his face fading into the darkness.
"Are you afraid of me?"
Big Brother! You look like you're going to kill someone, how could she not be afraid? Wen Yingxue thought to herself, but a stiff smile appeared on her face: "How could it be."
Nie Chubai looked at Wen Yingxue for a long time, then said, "Wen Yingxue, you were the one who provoked me first."
Wen Yingxue looked at Nie Chubai, scratching her head. What had she done to provoke Nie Chubai?
Seeing that Wen Yingxue didn't say anything, Nie Chubai took a few steps forward. The moonlight outside shone through the broken window onto Nie Chubai's face. His eyes seemed to flash with a crazy and stubborn light.
"Nie Chubai, you, um!" Wen Yingxue took a step back and was about to speak, but Nie Chubai seemed to be enraged and bit Wen Yingxue's lower lip hard.
"Wen Yingxue, stay by my side. You can have whatever you want, as long as you stay by my side." Tasting the blood between his lips and teeth, Nie Chubai raised his head and said to Wen Yingxue.
Nie Chubai's gaze at this moment was too scary, and Wen Yingxue couldn't say no at all, so she could only nod.
Outside the thatched hut, Wu Nan, Ji Yan and Zi Su, along with a group of people, had already rushed over.
"Master, all the people around have been cleared out, you can go back now." Ji Yan said.
Nie Chubai bent down, picked up Wen Yingxue, and took her out of the thatched hut. Wen Yingxue was as stiff as a board at this time, and did not dare to move at all.
The group came to a small courtyard outside the imperial city. Aunt Lian and Ai Ye were there. Ji Yan and Wu Nan sent them here first. Fearing that something might happen to Nie Chubai, they immediately went back to rescue Nie Chubai and Wen Yingxue.
"Aunt, Ai Ye, are you okay?" Wen Yingxue recovered after seeing the two of them.
"It's okay, it's okay. How are you?" When Aunt Lian saw Wen Yingxue, tears immediately flowed out and she looked Wen Yingxue up and down.
"I'm fine too. Aunt, you guys take a good rest. We'll go home when it's daybreak." Having missed the chance to escape and provoked the villain, Wen Yingxue felt a splitting headache.
Aunt Lian looked at Nie Chubai behind her and nodded.
"Hello, auntie." Nie Chubai also called out.
Wen Yingxue and Aunt Lian were both startled. Aunt Lian quickly reacted and nodded with a smile: "Hey! General Nie is also good. Today is all thanks to General Nie. Thank you so much."
Nie Chubai smiled at Aunt Lian, and said gracefully and politely, "You're welcome. Xue'er is my wife-to-be. This is what I should do."
Aunt Lian smiled and nodded, glancing at Wen Yingxue. "Didn't you say this marriage was a temporary solution? Why does it look like it doesn't seem like it?"
Wen Yingxue lowered her head and pretended not to see it.
She is still wondering what she did to provoke the villain.
"Aunt, I have something to tell Xue'er. I'll ask them to send you back to your room to rest first." Nie Chubai said, and then Zi Su and Ji Yan sent Aunt Lian and Ai Ye to the room.
Wen Yingxue lowered her head and stood there, silently saying in her heart, "You can't see me, you can't see me."
"How long are you going to stand here? Come here." Nie Chubai asked.
Wen Yingxue turned around and asked, "What are you doing?"
Nie Chubai didn't say anything. He grabbed Wen Yingxue's wrist and pulled her away.
Wen Yingxue wanted to struggle, but she was too timid to do so.
Following Nie Chubai to the backyard, Wen Yingxue smelled a bitter smell, which was herbal.
Wu Nan stood up from the small clay pot where the herbs were boiled and said to Nie Chubai, "Master, the medicine is ready."
Nie Chubai nodded, then poured out a bowl himself and handed it to Wen Yingxue: "Drink it."
Wen Yingxue was particularly afraid of bitterness, so she quickly shook her head and said, "What the hell is this? I won't drink it."
"Here's the medicine for your cold. Drink it quickly."
Wen Yingxue finally raised her head again and looked at Nie Chubai.
