Gallinas y perros vuelan en el caos y el renacimiento

Capítulo 46

She smiled gently: "Lord Chu is very thoughtful, to think of this. I admire you very much."

A smile finally appeared on his peach-blossom face: "Really? Say it and let me hear it."

She hesitated, her smile finally fading: "Isn't this a bit much?"

"Interest." He lifted her chin.

"Senior brother," she whispered, her cheeks suddenly flushing red.

He gazed at her red lips so close to his own, and this must be what it meant to be longing for something you can't have. He wasn't one to make things difficult for himself; normally, he would have pounced on her and done as he pleased. But recalling the lingering scent of blood and seeing the hint of fear in her eyes, he managed to suppress the surging demonic energy within him. The wetness below was unbearable, and he couldn't help but sneer, "Good, very obedient." He forced her mouth open with his fingers, and roughly shoved the pill inside.

"Swallow it!"

She was slightly surprised, but obediently took it in her mouth.

Her lips inevitably touched his fingers.

"Let's go." He released her, turned around, and trembled slightly.

Just now, his fingers touched her lips, and the slippery, wet sensation on his finger made him feel like he was going crazy.

If I look at her again, I might not be able to resist.

"Thank you..." she murmured, turned around, opened the door, and walked away without looking back.

Tang Leyan staggered and barely made it out of the Nine Gates Admiral's Mansion.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but as he leaned against the large stone lion at the entrance of the mansion, he didn't even have the courage to turn around.

Chu Gexing always surprised her.

Every time we clashed, I made sure to leave some mark on her.

The first time we met, I gave him the generous gift of having his arm removed; this time, however, I gave him some aphrodisiacs.

It's hard to understand what he was thinking.

She smiled gently; even she was surprised that she could smile at a time like this.

Deep down, he was afraid of this senior brother to the core, and he was also wary of him to the core.

She vowed that from then on, whenever she saw Chu Gexing, she would stay at least a hundred meters away. If she couldn't avoid him, she would wear full armor, cover her mouth and nose, and hold a sharp weapon, glaring at him menacingly.

That's how you keep yourself safe and sound.

Shaking her head self-deprecatingly, she continued forward along the main road.

Night had fallen, and two large red lanterns hung high at the entrance.

It wasn't a joyous occasion; in her eyes, it was all eeriness.

On the contrary, anything related to that person gave her a strange feeling.

It's like being bitten by a snake once and then being afraid of a rope for ten years.

He barely made it out of the street corner, intending to use his lightness skill to quickly return home. However, due to the poisoning and the strained fight with him, several of his acupoints were sealed, and the internal energy clashed within him, causing unavoidable internal injuries. Forcing himself to use his lightness skill would only bring more trouble.

If we keep dawdling like this, we might end up sleeping on the street tonight.

She leaned against the wall, hesitating between going all in and sleeping on the street, only to be awakened by the stares of onlookers the next day.

But just then, their savior arrived.

Chapter Sixty Intimacy

Tang Leyan heard a light footstep.

She instinctively turned her head to look.

The black sedan chair came steadily down the long street.

Such a coincidence made her eyes shine brightly in the night for a moment.

The sedan chair approached her at a leisurely pace, just as it was about to pass by, when she suddenly heard the person inside the chair utter a low, seemingly displeased, shout: "Hurry up."

The sedan chair carriers hurriedly sped up.

Hehe... Tang Leyan understood immediately.

The person inside the sedan chair must have seen her.

They must have been thinking about their previous tragic experience.

Otherwise, there would be no need to make such a fuss to urge the sedan chair bearers to quicken their pace.

Was she really that hated in his heart?

But how could she let this chance to save her life slip away?

"My lord... Lord Chu..." With a wave of her red sleeve, someone began to call out in a vivid and expressive voice.

Those unaware of the situation might mistake it for a heart-wrenching reunion scene.

"My lord, I have been waiting for you here for a long time... Heaven rewards those who persevere..." The voice pierced the deep night.

The sedan chair kept moving forward, but the people chased after it even faster.

Tang Leyan stepped forward in a few strides, grabbed the sedan chair handle, and stood guard against all odds, displaying a rather roguish demeanor.

The people inside the sedan chair remained silent.

The guards were bewildered and stunned. They wanted to come forward and chase the man away, but they didn't dare.

She continued with deep emotion, "Last time I was rude to you, sir, and it is understandable that you were displeased. But tonight the moon is cold and the wind is strong, and I am also... cough cough, I am ill. I wonder if you could do me a favor?"

The person inside the sedan chair found it unusual, but remained silent.

What trick is this little fox playing now?

"The master doesn't recognize you, please move aside..." Hearing that the master had not given any orders, the guards at the front finally stepped forward to shoo the person away.

Unexpectedly, just as he took a step, a figure flashed before his eyes and vanished into thin air.

Chu Zhen, inside the sedan chair, only felt the curtain move and the person peeked in. The person had a pretty, fair face with small, bright eyes that darted around. The person had furrowed brows and lifted the tip of their small nose, saying, "My lord, look... it's me. You won't turn your back on me, will you? After all, we once shared a bed."

As she spoke, she raised her sleeve and wiped away tears from the corners of her eyes.

—The affection of sharing a bed and pillows…

The guards who were about to step forward were taken aback upon hearing this.

The person inside the sedan chair felt even more pained and flew into a rage, shouting:

"What nonsense are you spouting? Shut up!"

"Does that mean the master agrees? Woohoo..." The man immediately beamed with joy, and as he spoke, he ducked down and slipped inside with practiced ease.

Chu Zhen angrily said, "You give me..."

She smiled broadly: "Thank you for your kindness, my lord, sob... I knew you wouldn't be so heartless..."

Chu Zhen choked: "You..."

"My lord, please don't stand on ceremony. I'll just sit in a corner."

He continued to rage: "You bastard..."

"Your sedan chair is as comfortable as ever, making me sleepy." She yawned.

Chu Zhen's heart trembled.

"Don't sleep!"

Finally, he seized the opportunity and shouted out this sentence.

"Yes, sir. Thank you for allowing me to stay." This time, the man was obedient. "Hurry up and get the sedan chair out, ah."

Chu Zhen remained silent.

The sedan chair started moving forward again.

However, the shifty eyes of the person next to him always made Chu Zhen feel like she had fallen into another trap.

I'm so troubled.

※※※※※

Tang Leyan leaned against Chu Zhen.

She sighed contentedly, even nuzzling her head against his shoulder, trying to find the best spot to rest, like a stray cat finding its owner.

He found it strange.

It feels like the person next to me is leaning on me, and although it's not the first time, I still feel uneasy.

This person is far too presumptuous, always taking advantage of him and showing no sense of responsibility as a subordinate.

But gradually he realized that what she said about being "ill" was not a lie.

Although he wasn't very skilled in martial arts, he noticed that her breathing was slightly strange.

As soon as she got into the sedan chair, she leaned against his shoulder without any hesitation, closed her eyes, and seemed to have fallen asleep.

Long eyelashes covered her eyes, and her expression was somewhat strange.

She has a somewhat fragile temperament and doesn't give off a sense of danger.

After a long while, Chu Zhen finally relaxed his stiff body.

Are you sick?

What disease is it?

She was still full of energy in the Empress Dowager's palace, knowing how to act and how to cling to him.

But then it ran away in a flash, as fast as a little red fox.

Could it be that they went to steal chickens?

The military commander, shaken by his own thoughts, wanted to laugh.

Looking at her small hands tucked into her sleeves, I wanted to take her pulse, but my eyes kept looking at her hands, and I just couldn't muster the courage.

He stretched out his hand, reaching towards her, then slowly withdrew it.
