Chapter 652 I'm in cahoots with you.
Chapter 652 I'm in cahoots with you.
Countless times, Zong Que feared that he might never wake up from his sleep.
Later, she feared she would never see Lu Yangyang again.
He was also very attached to his life, fearing that if he lived one less day, he wouldn't be able to think of her one more day.
So he thought that in this world, in his life, there was nothing more exciting or irresistible than waking up to find her by his side.
Even more than his surging lust was his soul's desire for her.
He wanted to transform into unbreakable threads, to firmly imprison her within his soul, so that even the cycle of life and death could not separate them.
Lu Yangyang suddenly moved closer to him, and the burning heat from his body seemed to melt her. Her mind went blank, her heart pounded, and heat rose to her face, making her face flush red and her lips dry.
That's so unfair!
Lu Yangyang bit her lip, her mind a battle of wits, and stammered, "Your Highness, it's so early in the morning, it's easy for things to go wrong, so, so please let me go first."
Zong Que buried his face in her shoulder and chuckled softly.
Lu Yangyang's face grew increasingly hot.
Just then, my stomach, which had been starving for so long, joined in the fun, rumbling loudly.
Lu Yangyang lowered her head as much as she could, wishing she could disappear into a crack in the ground.
Zong Que ran his fingertips through her long hair and gently kissed her forehead: "Have you not eaten these past few days?"
"Well, it's alright." Lu Yangyang felt only ashamed at this moment.
Who would have their stomach rumbling like crazy during such an ambiguous time?
But she was really hungry.
Lu Yangyang was extremely frustrated.
Zong Que pinched her cheek: "We've wronged Yangyang. Alright, get up now and go have your meal. I'll be waiting for you."
Lu Yangyang felt as if she had been granted a pardon and quickly got up, but she didn't forget to check Zong Que's pulse. The medicine was very potent, and she would inevitably suffer for the first few days, but fortunately there were no abnormalities. This showed that her thinking was correct. With the help of Sheng Junyi's so-called true qi, the effect was much better than she had expected.
"I'll go have breakfast first, and then I'll bring you your medicine later. After you take the medicine, you'll be able to eat a little something around noon. In less than three days, you'll be able to get out of bed. After half a month, you'll be about 70-80% recovered. But you still need to be careful for the first three months, and try to rest as much as possible and avoid getting injured," Lu Yangyang said subconsciously.
Zong Que grasped her hand in return, nodded gently, but...
Sensing that he seemed to have something to say, Lu Yangyang quickly asked, "What's wrong?"
Zong Que shook his head: "Let's go eat first, we can talk about it later."
"Well, I've been thinking about it all along, so why don't you just tell me now?" Lu Yangyang looked at him.
Zong Que chuckled and explained to her, "It's not a big deal, but I just wanted to tell you that I'm afraid I won't be able to stay in Jinzhou for three months. The news of my killing of Zong Ke has already reached the capital, and Father Emperor must have guessed that I'm in Jinzhou. In the past few days, I've already killed several waves of spies they sent. This is just a test, but if I'm not mistaken, the imperial envoy is already on his way. If this continues, I'm afraid Jinzhou will become the target of everyone's criticism. Therefore, I must leave Jinzhou before the imperial envoy arrives."
Lu Yangyang knew that this matter wouldn't be so easy to resolve, but lately she had been preoccupied with preparing the medicine and didn't have time to think about these things. However, she also knew that what was coming couldn't be avoided.
Lu Yangyang thought for a moment and said, "Then for half a month, within half a month, with me, Master, and Qingqing, the three of us together, we should be able to get your body back to normal. I'll make some more pills for you to take with you. Make sure you take the medicine on time. I'll prepare an extra portion for Pei Ji."
Zong Que pulled her closer with a little force, asking, "Yangyang, aren't you reluctant to see me leave?"
Lu Yangyang blinked and quickly kissed him on the cheek. "I knew from the beginning that Your Highness would eventually have to part ways with me. I have to go to Changyang County to find my aunt and hope to cure her madness. But no matter what, I know that I will definitely reunite with Your Highness."
No matter how far they travel, their destination is the same.
Although she also enjoyed spending time with him and longed for romance, the most important thing for her at that moment was to heal Zong Que's leg. After that, she had many other things to do. When they could both get what they wanted, they would naturally have more time for romance.
"Okay." Zong Que touched her face and replied softly.
Lu Yangyang noticed the cotton bandage on his right hand, which was wrapped from his palm to his wrist, and hurriedly grabbed it, asking, "What happened? When did you get injured?"
"It's just a minor injury, I got it when I was bleeding yesterday, have you forgotten?" Zong Que said casually in a low voice.
Lu Yangyang recalled that after taking the medicine yesterday, Wen Yu did indeed bleed Zong Que. Usually, bloodletting is done from the fingertips, but given yesterday's situation, it would have been too late to bleed from the fingertips. It seems that in the urgency, this was the only way to speed things up.
If the toxic blood doesn't drain in time, Zong Que might not be able to withstand it.
Lu Yangyang touched the cotton cloth in his hand and muttered softly, "Master is really something. If you're going to bleed, why make so many cuts!"
"It's alright, it's all over now. It was just a minor injury. Aren't you hungry? Go eat." Zong Que urged her.
Lu Yangyang then got up and left reluctantly.
As Lu Yangyang went out, Mingxiu was already waiting for her in the living room. She was overjoyed to see her: "Sister, you look much better today. I've already prepared the medicine. Sister Wen said you can eat after taking the medicine, but you still can't eat too much today. By the way, Young Master Yan and Miss Sheng are here and waiting for you in the front hall."
"Jiaojiao and Yan Yue are here?" Lu Yangyang quickly ran out. "Please take the medicine to the front hall for me."
"Jiaojiao, Yan Yue!" Lu Yangyang walked into the front hall and called out.
Sheng Yunjiao and Yan Yue quickly surrounded her. Sheng Yunjiao touched her face with great heartache: "I wanted to come to see you a couple of days ago, but my second brother insisted that you had something important to do and wouldn't let me come no matter what. I was so worried. What happened to you? How did you get yourself into this state? You finally managed to gain some weight over the past two years, and now it's all gone."
"Yangyang, I heard from my second brother that you prepared the medicine for my cousin. Is that true? How is he now?" Yan Yue looked at Lu Yangyang anxiously.
Lu Yangyang looked puzzled, her gaze drifting to Sheng Junyi, who was sitting quietly drinking tea to the side, before returning to her own: "Wait, you also call him Second Brother?"
Yan Yue scratched his head, a little embarrassed, but shameless: "Then what should I call you? I'm on your side."
Lu Yangyang was dumbfounded: "You can use them like this when you're in cahoots? You're clearly taking advantage of our Jiaojiao!"
