Chapter 15 Bloody Immortal Hero

Nan Yan trotted all the way to the wooden house with unsteady steps. When she was sure that no one was following her, she tidied up her messy hair and clothes, then opened the door and entered the yard.

The atmosphere between the two people in the yard was a little strange. They were immersed in each other's thoughts, so they didn't notice anything wrong with her.

Nan Yan could roughly guess what the two had said to each other. According to the current situation, He Nanwan would definitely not be able to accept Chu Liyue, so she most likely came to Ye Qingsang to help her escape.

Even though Ye Qingsang hesitated, he still chose to help her in the end...

Nan Yan continued to walk inside, but He Nanwan, who was originally sitting in the yard, suddenly came forward and held her hand. She was holding a bottle of pills in her hand, and handed it to her with an apologetic look.

"Nan Yan, I'll give you this bottle of medicine first. I've never said sorry to you about the He family's substitutionary marriage. When I ran away from the marriage earlier, I didn't know that the He family would force you to marry in their place. During this time, you must have suffered a lot of grievances. I'm sorry for you."

When she said this, Ye Qingsang's face turned pale instantly, because he was the one who instigated the proxy marriage. If anyone had to apologize, he was the one who felt the most sorry for her.

Ye Qingsang's gaze involuntarily fell on Nan Yan's face. In addition to guilt, there seemed to be an indescribable different emotion in his heart, especially after he agreed to He Nanwan's request, that strange emotion became deeper and deeper.

Nan Yan didn't care about what she said.

After all…

This belated apology meant nothing to her.

Nan Yan looked at the heroine in front of her who looked exactly like herself, and suddenly felt something strange in her heart. They really looked alike.

She could understand in her heart that the other party chose to elope, but understanding it did not mean that she could agree with it.

The heroine in the original text does not have a deep affection for the He family and has no sense of belonging here. The He family is nothing more than a strange relative to her. She certainly cannot risk her lifelong happiness for such a strange family.

As for the younger sister, they had different values ​​and parted ways after just a few words. Moreover, after her spiritual roots were awakened, she completely entered the realm of immortality. To cultivate immortality, one must cut off worldly ties. Over the past ten years, the two sisters have met so many times that they can be counted on one hand. It is normal for their relationship to become estranged.

He Nanwan felt somewhat apologetic towards her sister, but it was limited to the matter of marrying her off in her place.

But in the final analysis, she was not forced to marry in substitution. If anyone really had to blame someone, it should be the real He family. She would not impose the mistakes made by others on herself.

Nan Yan responded and pulled her hand out of her palm. She raised her head and asked her seriously, "Do you like Chu Liyue?"

like?

He Nanwan was stunned for a moment, as if she had not expected her to ask this question.

The first reaction that came to my mind at that moment was... I liked him a little, but not to the extent that I would give up myself for him.

She pursed her lips uncomfortably, her eyes wandering as she avoided her gaze. "Why are you asking this?"

Nan Yan shook her head. "What I want to say is, if you really like him, then what was the point of running away from the marriage? Wouldn't you feel sad when you saw him getting married with another woman?"

He Nanwan was firm, "I know he won't..."

"What won't happen? You won't fall in love with someone else? If you know this, why don't you just stay with him? Why do you do things that will hurt both of you and make you regret it?"

He Nanwan's face turned pale, and she pursed her lips, "Are you blaming me..."

She seemed to understand what Nan Yan meant. Did she want her to stop getting involved with Senior Brother Ye?

Regarding this, she was actually full of regret in her heart.

But how can something like love be explained in just a few words?

Perhaps in the eyes of women in this world, as long as they like a man a little bit, they can spend their lives together, but she is different. She has her own pursuits. What she wants to find is a soul mate who can depend on her, understand her forever, and be humble to her. Is there anything wrong with this?

"Nan Yan, you won't understand..."

He Nanwan turned her face away. He Nanyan didn't understand her, but she could understand her. After all, they came from different worlds and accepted different ideas, just as she would not force her to understand her own ideas.

"The matter between him and me is not that simple. If his character cannot be changed, I will be the only one who suffers in the future..."

"You don't understand this kind of thing."

After He Nanwan said that, her emotions gradually calmed down. She looked at He Nanyan in front of her, and for some reason, she always felt that this sister was a little different from before. She used to be gentle and weak, and her every move revealed the temperament of a lady from a noble family, but now she had a somewhat unreasonable aura.

This made He Nanwan feel a little uncomfortable.

But I didn't take it to heart.

What she cares more about at the moment is how to get rid of A Yue's control and escape the marriage again.

…

Since it didn't make sense, Nan Yan didn't want to continue talking. The most important thing at the moment was her mission. She estimated that the progress of this world would soon come to an end.

He Nanwan looked outside and saw that it was getting late. She glanced at Ye Qingsang again, seeming a little guilty. Just as she turned around and prepared to leave, Chu Liyue, who had been waiting outside the door, finally came in.

In order to let him let down his guard, He Nanwan naturally walked to his side at the first opportunity and said, "Let's go back."

But when I got closer, I found that there seemed to be some light red marks on his face, so I couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with your face?

Hearing this, Chu Liyue glanced down at her, but his eyes inadvertently swept to where Nan Yan was standing opposite. When he saw that her face looked a little pale, his fingers unconsciously clenched.

He knew that Nan Yan was very repulsive to him at the moment, so... he couldn't act rashly because he was afraid of hurting her again.

Chu Liyue concealed the tense emotions in his heart and tried to reply in the coldest tone, "I was hurt accidentally. Why are you asking this?"

He Nanwan was choked and felt a little uncomfortable, but she thought that this person was angry with her, so she continued, "It's nothing. If everything is fine, then let's go back."

"etc……"

He Nanwan looked at him puzzledly, "What's wrong?"

Chu Liyue stepped forward and said calmly, "Take them with you."

He Nanwan was also stunned. What did he mean? Why did he take them back to Youdu for no reason? Did he hear what she and Senior Brother Ye said?

"Ayue, what are you doing?"

He Nanwan was a little anxious.

Chu Liyue glanced at her nonchalantly and said, "It's nothing. I just saw that you couldn't bear to leave your Senior Brother Ye, so I wanted to take him back to Youdu to heal his injuries. Why, you don't want to?"

He said these words, but the look in his eyes when he looked at her was cold.

He Nanwan then realized that something was wrong. A Yue might be really angry with her this time. His attitude towards her... was really different from before.

She suddenly felt a little uneasy. Did she really do something wrong?

Chu Liyue ignored her thoughts, his attention at the moment was on the thin figure beside him, especially when he saw her tightly grasping her sleeves, he suddenly felt a little sad.

She was used to this when she was nervous. In the past, when she was in Youdu, she couldn't help but secretly pull his sleeve to show her kindness when he annoyed her. Her face was full of grievance, and he used this to mock her for being unpresentable. But now, seeing her little action, she only felt full of apology, as if her heart was being pulled hard by an invisible hand...

She used to like him so much, she was filled with joy whenever she saw him, but this love was trampled into the mud by him, he even stepped on it.

Whenever she thought of those words, those words he had said to her, she would feel so sad and painful in her heart that she would feel as if she was suffocating. If only she could have realized her own feelings earlier... earlier.

Chu Liyue took a deep breath. He knew that she definitely didn't want to go back with him, especially in the current situation. She might never forgive him in her life, but what could he do? He just couldn't let go.

This feeling is even more painful than when I first learned that He Nanwan had run away from her marriage. It's the kind of pain that pierces my heart. I can't let go, but I can't escape. I can only be entangled in this way.

It's all his fault. He was so stupid.

So stupid that I don't even know who I really like.

No matter how He Nanwan resisted and persuaded them, in the end, they were all taken back to Youdu City together.

After many twists and turns, Nan Yan moved back to the same bedroom she once lived in. Even the maids serving her remained the same, but her food, clothing and daily necessities were much more refined than before.

Of course she understood what that man meant, he just regretted it and wanted to start over with her.

Nan Yan learned from the maid that He Nanwan and Ye Qingsang were both locked up in different courtyards, and their current condition was almost like house arrest.

In comparison, her treatment was the best, at least she was free to come and go.

Nan Yan also knew that her every move was definitely being monitored, so she planned to provoke that person again.

Following the maid's instructions, she went directly to the place where Ye Qingsang was locked up. However, in just two or three days, this man's face had become more and more haggard, his eyes were full of red bloodshot, and all the medicines handed over by the maid were spilled.

As soon as Nan Yan stepped into the door, she heard a burst of indifferent and impatient scolding, "Get out, I said I don't know how to use these things."

But when he looked up and saw that the person coming was He Nanyan, the coldness in his eyes immediately turned into surprise and joy, "Nanyan..."

"What happened to you? Did they bully you?"

葉清桑一直不明白楚離越此番舉動是為什麽？他甚至以為那人發現了他和賀南婉說的話，才故意設法困住他。

但看他最近的動向又不像是那麽回事，他甚至還讓人送了藥來，不過這行為在葉清桑眼裏看來明顯是折辱，所以他寧死也不可能用那些東西。

他自己倒是沒關系，可現在最擔心的就是眼前的女子，他覺得是自己連累了她。

說着，葉清桑便下意識地抓住了南嫣的手腕，打量着她全身，等确認她身上并無一絲受傷的痕跡時才稍微放了點心。

而南嫣看到這滿地的狼藉也沒有說什麽，只是搖了搖頭說，“我沒事，不過你這是做什麽，為什麽不好好吃藥？”

一聽到這話，葉清桑也明白了這人是來勸說他吃藥的。

他以為是賀南婉跟她說了什麽，讓她充當說客來的，臉色也瞬間變得古怪起來，“你也是跟她一樣來勸我的嗎？”

那眼神莫名的就帶上了一股氣悶，怨忿中夾雜着不滿，不滿她和其他人一樣不能夠理解他。

他擡起頭，雙手緊握，随即自嘲似的冷笑了聲，“你明明知道，我如今這副模樣都是誰造成的，你讓我吃仇人送來的藥，我怎麽可能會接受這些……”

聽到他說的話，南嫣便開口示意身後盯梢的丫鬟出去，看她身形消失，她這才轉過身來看着輪椅上的葉清桑。

她又朝他笑了笑，“你怎麽這麽死板？死板又無趣，怪不得我姐姐不喜歡你。”

這話說得直戳人痛腳。

葉清桑猛地瞪向她，“賀南嫣……”

他一聽到這話便立刻明白這人又開始挖苦他了，但不知道為何，對于這話其實沒有太多觸動了，仿佛賀南婉不喜歡他也并不是一件多要緊的事。

只不過想起小木屋的相處時仍有些惱怒，惱怒他每次吃藥時總被她無情嘲諷一通。

他別過臉去，擺明了不想搭理人，“你別惹我生氣，我此刻沒心情與你争吵……”

南嫣點着頭，随即便搬了把小椅子坐到他對面，“好吧好吧，其實我也不想與你争吵的，我只是覺得你太笨了。”

她從懷中取出一瓶丹藥在他面前晃了晃，這還是上次賀南婉留給她的。

“你也不想想，楚離越搶走了你的心上人，又把你傷的這樣重，你不想着報複他也就算了，居然還這般費盡心思地為他節省丹藥，哪有兒你這樣笨的人？”

“你不是想報仇嗎？既然要報仇那就更應該用他的東西了，什麽丹藥珍貴你吃什麽，最好的方式就是把他所擁有的一切都搶過來，這麽簡單的道理你也不懂嗎？”

葉清桑神情頓了頓，瞥了她一眼，“歪理邪說。”

南嫣抿唇笑了，“怎麽能是歪理邪說呢？正常情況下，若是別人傷了我，我可不會那樣輕易地放過他，我定會狠狠訛他一筆，再把他最重要的東西搶走，讓他心痛死才好。”

聽到她這番話，

葉清桑神情頓了下，他心底似乎冒出了一個聲音，好像在說她說的也不是沒有道理的……

他不就是想要報仇嗎？

那最好的方式不就是看着楚離越失去一切，失去這輩子最重要的人和物，這難道不是一件最痛苦的事嗎？

而楚離越最看重的是什麽呢？

是賀南婉……

那麽他幫賀南婉逃婚，讓楚離越再一次遭受背叛，讓他被心上人鄙棄，求而不得，這難道不是最好的複仇方式嗎？

想到這兒，葉清桑的臉色也逐漸變得深沉起來，他覺得自己好像找到了某種複仇方式。

而南嫣則像是什麽都沒察覺到一樣。

她伸手握住他的手掌，溫軟的手指包裹着他冰涼的手心，将他的思緒又扯了回來。

葉清桑便看見她将那瓶丹藥放在他手心裏，語氣溫和地說着，“這丹藥可以讓你重新站起來，雖然不能完全治愈你，但這也是姐姐的一番心意，你自己決定要不要吃吧。”

她的表情依舊如常，看不出有什麽其他情緒。

而葉清桑也明白，她方才說的那些話不過是為了讓他老實吃藥罷了，并沒有什麽其他的意思。

南嫣說完便松開了他的手，“好了，我還有別的事情，就不留在這裏打擾你了。”

葉清桑指尖蜷縮了下，不自在地“嗯”了聲。

他好似想通了什麽，表情也沒了一開始那麽固執強硬了。

南嫣便以為是自己說動了他。

她朝人笑了笑，正要起身離開時，卻冷不防被人抓住了手腕。

南嫣詫異回眸。

葉清桑的目光也落在兩人交握的手上，她手腕那麽細那麽軟，教他一下子就想起那晚二人同床共枕時的場景了。

臉色瞬間就變得有些紅。

他也不知道自己是怎麽了，只是突然就抓住了人家姑娘的手腕，可能是不想她離開罷了。

于是就不自在問了句：

“那你……什麽時候……再來看我？”

一句話說的磕磕巴巴，葉清桑自己都覺得臉熱，他半晌沒等到回複，還以為這人又要嘲諷他扭扭捏捏了。

結果一擡頭便看見她偏頭朝他笑了下，眼裏滿是溫柔，“我又不會消失，有時間就會來看你。”

葉清桑愣了會兒神，不自覺地松了手，心底卻有些患得患失，“好。”

嘴上這麽說着，心底卻總有些不安，總覺得會有什麽不好的事情會發生一樣。

他在心裏想着，他們倆相識與危難之際，她救了他，又對他不離不棄，心底總該是有些……有些什麽呢？

葉清桑臉又紅了。

他以為，應該是有些……喜歡的吧。

可她好像從未表露過這些。

葉清桑一時間有些不敢确定，但不知為何，只要一想到兩人之間的點點滴滴，心底便湧出些……不為人知的歡喜。

……

而等南嫣剛從院子裏走出來，便有人直接從身後捂住了她的嘴，力道大的她根本無力抵抗。

南嫣自然知道那人是誰，但還是故作驚慌地掙紮了起來。

“放開我！你放開我……唔！”

他将人帶到一處僻靜的假山後，後背抵住了凸起的石頭，疼得她直抽氣。

“放開，救……”

話還沒說完就被人堵住了，她驚慌地擡起頭，正好對上了一雙深不見底的眼睛。

楚離越禁锢着她的肩膀，那雙漆黑如墨的眼眸看過去，裏頭的情緒複雜難辨，最終卻變成了愧疚與不忍。

“你真的……喜歡上了葉清桑嗎？”

而南嫣在看清禁锢自己的人是誰之後，臉色也瞬間變得蒼白起來。

“這……和你有什麽關系？”

她想到了上次的事情，她以為這人上次只是昏了頭而已，可沒想到他這次居然是直接光明正大的擄人了。

當即用力掙紮起來，可此時身後已經無處可退，她用力抵住這人貼近的身體，卻仍舊無濟于事。

“不行……你不能喜歡他……”

他此刻腦海中只有一個念頭，那就是不能讓她走，絕對不能讓她和葉清桑在一起。

楚離越吻下來的時候有種不管不顧的瘋狂，南嫣被人抵在石壁上被迫承受着。

“放開！唔……”

情急之下，她用力咬破他的嘴唇，血腥味瞬間在口腔中蔓延，可那人像是毫無痛感似的，親吻也變得更加兇狠。

最後南嫣實在忍不住了，一巴掌甩了過去，接着眼淚便落下來了，一顆一顆砸在楚離越的手背上。

“你真的知道自己在做什麽嗎？”

“楚離越，你到底把我當成什麽了啊？我不是你的玩物，你已經有自己喜歡的人了，到底為什麽還不肯放過我……”

她說完身體便不受控制的顫抖了起來。

楚離越的動作突然就停了，尤其是看到她全身發抖的樣子，心口瞬間疼的厲害。

“別哭……”

她唇上還沾着他的血跡，蒼白的面色和殷紅的唇成了鮮明的對比，眼淚一顆顆滑落，看起來柔弱又可憐。

他想伸手抱抱她，想張口說聲對不起，可身體卻僵硬的厲害，什麽動作都做不出來。

尤其是看到她如今這般排斥自己的模樣，心底的痛苦情緒更是攀升到了極致。

他怕傷害她。

明明是想要補償她，保護她，不讓她再受一絲一毫的傷害了，結果帶給她傷害的人永遠都是他。

鬼知道他看見葉清桑抓住她的時候，心底有多嫉妒，她還對他笑，明明在以前，那笑容全部是屬于他的……

這從未有過的痛苦讓他難以忍受，那一瞬間仿佛有種難以言喻的刺骨寒意從他的四肢百骸的蔓延至全身，讓他想立刻沖上去兩人分開……

可是不行，他不能再做那些讓她厭棄的事情了。

楚離越緩了緩語氣，試圖讓自己的聲音重新變得冷靜下來。

“對不起……”

“我只是一時沖動，以後不會這樣了。”

他伸手碰了碰她臉頰上的肌膚，大拇指小心翼翼的拭去她臉上的淚。

“你別哭……”

Obviously he had disliked her, annoyed her, made fun of her, and done so many things to let her down in the past, but now, he was reluctant to even touch her with force.

Afraid that she would be hurt again...

Maybe this is punishment, punishment for what he has done.

Hearing this man's apology, Nan Yan's mood calmed down a lot.

She looked over at the man, tears still wet on her face, "At this point, it's no longer possible for us to be together... Don't do this kind of thing again..."

As soon as these words came out, Chu Liyue's eyes turned slightly red, and a flash of pain flashed across his eyes.

She turned around and was about to leave, but someone grabbed her wrist. Chu Liyue pursed her lips and said the last sentence, "Don't believe him... Ye Qingsang is not worthy of your love..."

Nan Yan raised her eyes and looked at him. The unyielding gaze made Chu Liyue feel unbearable. She said, "He is not worth it, but are you worth it?"

The strength on his hands suddenly loosened, and the man took the opportunity to leave.

Chu Liyue, who was left alone, leaned against the stone wall and slowly closed his eyes. Yes, Ye Qingsang had ulterior motives, but what he did was unforgivable.
