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?"
Ye Qingsang never understood why Chu Liyue did this. He even thought that the man had discovered what he and He Nanwan had said and was trying to trap him.
But looking at his recent actions, that didn't seem to be the case. He even had someone send medicine over. However, this behavior was obviously humiliating in Ye Qingsang's eyes, so he would rather die than use those things.
It didn't matter to him, but what he was most worried about now was the woman in front of him. He felt that he had implicated her.
As he spoke, Ye Qingsang subconsciously grabbed Nan Yan's wrist and looked her over. He felt relieved only when he confirmed that there was no sign of injury on her body.
Nan Yan didn't say anything when she saw the mess on the ground. She just shook her head and said, "I'm fine, but what are you doing? Why don't you take your medicine properly?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingsang understood that this person was here to persuade him to take medicine.
He thought that He Nanwan had told her something to ask her to act as a lobbyist, and his expression suddenly became strange. "Are you here to persuade me like her?"
There was an inexplicable sense of depression in his eyes, mixed with resentment and dissatisfaction, dissatisfaction that she, like everyone else, could not understand him.
He raised his head, clenched his hands, and then sneered at himself, "You know exactly who caused me to be like this now. You asked me to take the medicine sent by my enemy, how could I accept this..."
After hearing what he said, Nan Yan signaled the maid who was following behind her to go out. After she saw her figure disappear, she turned around and looked at Ye Qingsang in the wheelchair.
She smiled at him again, "Why are you so rigid? Rigid and boring, no wonder my sister doesn't like you."
This statement hits the nail on the head.
Ye Qingsang glared at her fiercely, "He Nanyan..."
When he heard this, he immediately realized that this person was mocking him again, but for some reason, he was not too moved by the words, as if it was not a big deal that He Nanwan disliked him.
But he still felt a little angry when he thought of their time together in the cabin. He was angry that she always ruthlessly ridiculed him every time he took medicine.
He turned his face away, clearly not wanting to talk to anyone, "Don't make me angry, I'm not in the mood to argue with you right now..."
Nan Yan nodded, then moved a small chair and sat opposite him, "Okay, okay, actually I don't want to argue with you, I just think you are too stupid."
She took out a bottle of pills from her arms and shook it in front of him. This was the one that He Nanwan had left for her last time.
"Don't you think about it? Chu Liyue stole your sweetheart and hurt you so badly. It's ok that you don't want to take revenge on him, but you actually went to so much trouble to save pills for him. How can there be someone as stupid as you?"
"Don't you want revenge? If you want revenge, you should use his things. No matter how precious the elixir is, you can eat it. The best way is to snatch everything he has. Don't you understand such a simple truth?"
Ye Qingsang paused and glanced at her. "What a heresy."
Nan Yan pursed her lips and smiled, "How can it be a heresy? Under normal circumstances, if someone hurt me, I would not let him off so easily. I would definitely cheat him out of a lot of money and then take away his most important things, making him die of heartache."
Hearing her words,
Ye Qingsang's expression froze for a moment. A voice in his heart seemed to say that what she said was not unreasonable...
Doesn't he just want revenge?
Isn't the best way to watch Chu Liyue lose everything, lose the most important people and things in his life? Isn't this the most painful thing?
And what does Chu Liyue value most?
It's He Nanwan...
Then he helped He Nanwan escape the marriage, causing Chu Liyue to be betrayed once again, making him despised and abandoned by his sweetheart, unable to get her. Isn't this the best way of revenge?
Thinking of this, Ye Qingsang's expression gradually became gloomy. He felt that he seemed to have found a way to take revenge.
Nan Yan seemed to have noticed nothing.
She reached out and held his hand, her soft fingers wrapped around his cold palm, pulling his thoughts back.
Ye Qingsang saw her put the bottle of medicine in his palm and said gently, "This medicine can make you stand up again. Although it can't completely heal you, it is also a token of my sister's love. You can decide whether to take it or not."
Her expression remained the same, showing no other emotions.
Ye Qingsang also understood that what she had just said was just to make him take the medicine obediently, and there was no other meaning.
Nan Yan let go of his hand and said, "Okay, I have other things to do, so I won't stay here to bother you."
Ye Qingsang curled his fingertips and hummed uncomfortably.
He seemed to have figured something out, and his expression was no longer as stubborn and tough as it was at the beginning.
Nan Yan thought she had convinced him.
She smiled at the person and was about to get up and leave when someone suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Nan Yan looked back in surprise.
Ye Qingsang's eyes also fell on the two people's clasped hands. Her wrist was so thin and soft that he suddenly remembered the scene when the two of them slept in the same bed that night.
His face instantly turned red.
He didn't know what happened to him, he just suddenly grabbed the girl's wrist, probably because he didn't want her to leave.
So I asked uncomfortably:
"Then...when will you...come to see me again?"
Ye Qingsang spoke haltingly and felt embarrassed. He didn't get a reply for a long time and thought that this person was going to mock him for being timid again.
As a result, when he looked up, he saw her tilting her head and smiling at him, her eyes full of tenderness, "I won't disappear, I will come to see you when I have time."
Ye Qingsang was stunned for a moment, then unconsciously loosened his grip, but felt a little anxious in his heart, "Okay."
Even though I said this, I felt uneasy deep down, as if something bad was going to happen.
He thought to himself, they met each other in a time of crisis, she saved him, and never left him, there must be something...something in her heart?
Ye Qingsang blushed again.
He thought, maybe he liked it a little bit.
But she never seemed to express this.
Ye Qingsang was a little unsure for a moment, but for some reason, whenever he thought of the little things between the two of them, a kind of...unknown joy welled up in his heart.
…
As soon as Nan Yan walked out of the yard, someone covered her mouth from behind, with such great force that she had no power to resist.
Nan Yan naturally knew who that person was, but she still pretended to be frightened and struggled.
"Let me go! Let me go...ah!"
He took her to a secluded rockery and pressed her back against the protruding rocks, causing her to gasp in pain.
"Let go, save..."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by someone. She raised her head in panic and met a pair of bottomless eyes.
Chu Liyue held her shoulders, and looked over with his ink-black eyes. The emotions in them were complicated and difficult to discern, and finally turned into guilt and reluctance.
"Are you really...in love with Ye Qingsang?"
After Nan Yan saw who was imprisoning her, her face turned pale instantly.
"What does this have to do with you?"
She thought about what happened last time. She thought this man was just confused last time, but she didn't expect that he would actually kidnap people openly this time.
She struggled hard immediately, but now she had nowhere to retreat. She tried to push against the man's body, but it was of no use.
"No...you can't like him..."
There was only one thought in his mind at this moment, that was that he could not let her go and he absolutely could not let her be with Ye Qingsang.
When Chu Liyue kissed her, there was a kind of reckless madness in his kiss. Nan Yan was pushed against the stone wall and forced to endure it.
"Let go! Ugh..."
In desperation, she bit his lips hard, and the smell of blood instantly spread in her mouth, but the man seemed to feel no pain at all, and the kiss became more ferocious.
Finally, Nan Yan couldn't bear it anymore and slapped him. Then tears fell, one by one, hitting the back of Chu Liyue's hand.
"Do you really know what you are doing?"
"Chu Liyue, what do you think of me? I'm not your plaything. You already have someone you like, so why won't you let me go..."
After she finished speaking, her body began to tremble uncontrollably.
Chu Liyue's movements suddenly stopped, especially when he saw her trembling all over, his heart suddenly ached badly.
“Don’t cry…”
There was still traces of his blood on her lips, her pale face and her bright red lips formed a sharp contrast. Tears rolled down her cheeks, and she looked weak and pitiful.
He wanted to reach out and hug her, wanted to say sorry, but his body was so stiff that he couldn't do anything.
Especially seeing how she rejected him now, the pain in his heart reached its peak.
He was afraid of hurting her.
He clearly wanted to compensate her, protect her, and prevent her from getting hurt in the slightest, but in the end, he was always the one who hurt her.
God knows how jealous he was when he saw Ye Qingsang grab her. She even smiled at him, even though that smile belonged to him in the past...
This unprecedented pain was unbearable for him. At that moment, it was as if an indescribable piercing chill spread from his limbs to his entire body, making him want to rush up and separate the two of them immediately...
But no, he couldn't do those things that made her hate him anymore.
Chu Li slowed down his tone, trying to calm his voice again.
"sorry……"
"I was just impulsive. I won't do that again."
He reached out and touched the skin on her cheek, and carefully wiped away the tears from her face with his thumb.
"Don't cry..."
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.
