I am born a beauty, and I am supreme

Chapter 174

After Shishu got together with him, he was always obedient to her and would never do this again. He was stunned and saddened to see her suddenly talk back.

But seeing Tang Leyan like this only made him more frightened.

Tang Leyan lay down in her arms, slowly raised her hand, and gently waved it, saying, "Let them go, let them... go!" She struggled to say it, her breath becoming even weaker.

Shi Shu held her wrist and noticed that the pulse was gradually becoming dangerous. In her anxiety, tears streamed down her face as she cried out, "Young master, young master, please don't say that. Why did your pulse suddenly turn bad? It was fine before."

Chu Gexun was initially angry, but seeing her like this, he couldn't help but feel sorry for her and called out, "Shushu, don't worry..."

With tears blurring her vision and nowhere to vent her anger, Shi Shu could only shout at Chu Ge, "Young Master told you to leave, why aren't you leaving? Do you want me to kick you out? Hurry up and leave!"

Chu Ge saw that Tang Leyan's face was pale gold, and it was indeed bad. Although Chu Gexing's face was also not good, he was not seriously injured. He was relieved for a moment, and his guilt towards Shishu became even stronger. He said timidly, "Okay, okay, don't be angry, let's go."

"Brother, let's go." She hurriedly lowered her head and pulled Chu Gexing away.

Chu Gexing slowly pushed his hand away and said, "I'm not leaving."

Chu Ge tugged at his sleeve: "Brother!"

Shi Shu was furious: "Don't push your luck!"

Chu Gexing ignored him and looked at Shishu, saying, "If you want what's best for her, help me subdue her. Otherwise, she won't make it past midnight tonight."

Shi Shu was shocked and hugged Tang Leyan tightly. Her body trembled violently.

Tang Leyan vaguely heard his words, and her heart sank. She opened her eyes groggily and managed to say, "Why hasn't he left yet? Get out, tell him to get out... I don't want to see this person, I'd rather die than..."

Just as Chu Ge was about to speak, he saw Shi Shu crying her eyes out, so he could only mutter a few words to himself.

Shi Shu was at a loss for what to do. Holding Tang Leyan, she looked at Chu Gexing, her heart filled with anxiety.

Seeing that she stopped speaking, Chu Gexing stepped forward and took her from Shishu's arms.

Shi Shu grabbed Tang Leyan's hand, looked at Chu Gexing hesitantly, and said, "You heard what Young Master just said, she doesn't want to, she doesn't want to..."

Chu Gexing said, "If she doesn't want to, let's wait until she's sober and then say it again. Otherwise, once I leave, she'll never have another chance to say it."

Shi Shu shuddered and involuntarily released her grip on Tang Leyan's hand.

"Chu Gexing..." Tang Leyan muttered, struggling to open her eyes and glance at him.

Chu Gexing looked at her and said slowly, "It's alright."

Shi Shu stood to one side, so anxious that she kept shedding tears.

"Don't worry," Chu Gexing said again, his fingers quickly tapping Tang Leyan's body, sealing several major acupoints. Then he carried her towards the inner hall, instructing as he went, "You all stay outside. I don't allow anyone to disturb us for the next two hours."

Chu Gexing placed the person on the bed.

He was filled with mixed feelings. Logically, he was indeed largely responsible for what had happened, but at the time, he had been pushed to the limit, which was why he had spoken without thinking…

He straightened her body, sat cross-legged, slowly regulated his breathing, calmed his mind, and gradually entered a state of complete absorption in the world around him.

About an hour later, Chu Gexing slowly withdrew his palm.

Tang Leyan's body went limp and collapsed. He reached out and caught her in his arms.

Chu Gexing felt somewhat exhausted and shifted back slightly, leaning against the edge of the bed.

Looking down at her face with her eyes closed, I reached out and pressed her pulse and checked her breathing. Finally, it was stable.

He slowly wiped the sweat from his forehead, placed his hands on Tang Leyan, and hugged her tightly before saying slowly, "Have you seen enough? Since you've seen what you wanted to see, why don't you get lost?"

You Were Born Before I Was Born Chapter 227: Turning the Tide

Chu Gexing seemed to be speaking to the void.

But no sooner had the words left his mouth than a figure nimbly leaped from the beam and landed on the ground.

"As expected..." the newcomer sighed softly, "Such a beautiful woman, why did she become a thief?"

Chu Gexing sneered: "What's so good about your spying behavior?"

The man chuckled softly, "Fifteen is quite interesting. It's almost a shame to let such an interesting beauty die."

Chu Gexing opened his eyes slightly: "You hurt her to force me to take action. Now you're putting on this hypocritical act, isn't that ridiculous?"

"Hmm..." The man's eyes lit up. "You clearly saw that I deliberately provoked you to make a move, yet you still made a move. Isn't that foolish?"

"The newly promoted Silver Envoy of Tianmiao Peak is becoming increasingly talkative," Chu Gexing said slowly.

"Oh, so you want to attack me, just like last time..."

"Since you know that, you still dare to provoke me. You're not bad either."

"I just want to see just how much this person is worth protecting."

“You’re wrong,” Chu Gexing sneered. “It’s just that I inadvertently revealed my whereabouts last time, and I knew that someone would definitely come to investigate. Doing it once more or once less makes no difference.”

“Of course, how many people who are targeted by the Silver Envoy can escape unscathed,” the man said. “It’s just… whether it’s one or two…”

Chu Gexing frowned: "I will do this alone." The Silver Envoy looked at him: "Oh, is that so? But to this envoy, it doesn't seem to be the case."

"Um?"

"She knew I was the one who injured her from the shadows. If you hadn't intervened, she would have certainly died, yet she still didn't want you to save her, preferring death to your intervention. Do you think... in my heart, she is innocent?"

Chu Gexing's eyes sharpened: "You've misunderstood. She's angry because I drove away the person she likes. That's why she's refusing to let me save her."

"Is that so?" The Silver Envoy's voice carried a hint of amusement. "If she acted out of spite, then what is the reason for your protection of Fifteen? I believe it's out of protection for your comrades. Do you agree or disagree?"

“No.” Chu Gexing replied.

"Then what is it for? I really don't know that the legendary cold-hearted, ruthless, and heartless Fifteen would have a reason to protect others."

"Heartless, cold-hearted, and indifferent?" Chu Gexing smiled. She didn't look at him, but instead gazed down at Tang Leyan, saying calmly, "That doesn't stop me from liking her."

When Chu Ge Xing uttered those words, the Silver Envoy fell silent.

"Do you know that disciples from Tianmiao Peak are not allowed to reveal their identities to each other?"

That's what she thought.

"You mean the illegal act was also done by you?"

"Your understanding is not bad."

"Fifteen, fifteen, you are so different from the legends." The man sighed, "Look at you now, you are so affectionate that even I am moved."

Chu Gexing remained unfazed: "Yes, seeing is believing, hearing is deceiving."

"Ha, ha ha." The man laughed loudly.

“However,” Chu Gexing said, “the Silver Envoy of Tianmiao Peak shouldn’t be so noisy. You’ve heard what you’ve heard and seen what you’ve seen, go back and report.”

"You're not going to kill me?" the Silver Envoy asked in surprise.

“Killing minor characters is meaningless,” Chu Gexing said calmly.

"Although those words are hurtful," the Silver Envoy frowned, "your words give one pause for thought."

“You will know in the future,” Chu Gexing replied.

“I… will wait and see.” The Silver Envoy smiled. “But you should also be prepared. I will go back and report the truth to the Gold Envoy. Or… the Gold Envoy might take action, who knows?”

"I'll wait."

"You've really been good to her. Looks like I'll have to be more careful when I hear gossip in the future."

“That’s very good,” Chu Gexing replied softly.

The person chuckled softly, and Chu Gexing felt a gentle breeze on his face. The door opened slightly and then closed again, and the person had already disappeared in a flash.

The room was quiet.

Chu Gexing held Tang Leyan tightly, refusing to let go.

She finally couldn't help but move.

He smiled and said, "You finally couldn't hold back anymore?"

Tang Leyan opened her eyes and said calmly, "Do you always like doing these boring things? If I keep my eyes closed, will you stay in this position the whole time?"

“You’re right,” he replied with a smile.

"You...you really are a strange person." Tang Leyan's eyes flickered. "I was initially very angry, wanting to kill you, but now..."

"If it's because of what that boring person said earlier, you don't need to do this," Chu Gexing snorted.

"Um……"

“Besides, when you were being secretly attacked by him, you wanted to protect me, but it was I who insisted on not leaving,” he added.

"snort."

"I know you're still angry with me."

"It's good that you know."

"Leyan," Chu Gexing called out.

"What are you doing?"

Are you feeling better?

"..." She remained silent for a long time before finally replying with a muffled "Mm".

silence.

“If you like Chu Zhen, I won’t stop you anymore.” Chu Gexing suddenly said, breaking the silence.

Tang Leyan's eyes widened suddenly as she looked up at him: "What did you say?"

“If you need, I can explain to him that I was the one who lied before.”

"Did I hear that right?" Tang Leyan murmured. Just now, he had been holding her fiercely and domineeringly, saying so many outrageous things that almost drove her crazy. Now, he was acting like a good man? What was this man really up to?

Tang Leyan couldn't figure it out, and she suddenly felt a headache coming on.

“I’m serious, but…” Chu Gexing sighed, “If possible, I still… hope you give up.”

"What do you mean?" she snorted, knowing that his words were not so simple.

"If possible, don't fall for Chu Zhen," he said.

"I do not understand."
