I became the apex of my nemesis by acting

This time, the effect of the medicine came very slowly.

His viscera hurt so much that he didn't even have the strength to speak, his hands clasped the hollow carvings beside the bed, his fingertips wished they could sink deep into the patterns.

The sound of Xue Beiwang's slapping on the door has not stopped. His palms hit the wooden door again and again, seeping into the eardrums, as if there was a force hitting the inside of the skull again and again, and his ears buzzed.

"Jueyu! If you don't speak again, I'm going to kick the door in!"

Bai Chengjue took a deep breath, and calmed down his tone of voice: "You let me sit outside the house all night last night, and the more I thought about it, the more I got angry." After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes and bit his index finger knuckle, swallowing back the pain. intra-abdominal.

"I……"

There was silence inside and outside the house for more than ten seconds. Bai Chengjue's pain gradually receded, and he fell back on the bed weakly. After the silent panting subsided, he said softly, "I want to eat the fruit, and I won't be angry after eating the fruit."

"Okay, I'll go out and buy now."

Bai Chengjue said, "Do you have any silver taels?"

"If you want to eat, I must have a way to buy it for you."

It seemed that Xue Beiwang could be seen standing outside the house bewildered through a door.

Bai Chengjue slowly curled up on the bed, looked at one end absentmindedly and smiled lightly: "I don't need to be a jade pendant, Beiwang boiled sweet water with sucrose for me to drink, okay?"

"Okay, I'll go now, you wait for me in the house."

The sound of Xue Beiwang's hurriedly leaving footsteps could be heard outside the house.

It took about half a cup of tea before the belated effect of the medicine slowly drove away the piercing pain in his body. The medicine Le Wuyou prepared this time was too warm and tonic, so it was difficult to see the effect in a short time.

He gritted his teeth, forced his limbs to stand up, stumbled towards the copper basin, and washed away the shocking redness on his palms and cheeks with clean water.

As his figure gradually stabilized, he turned around and looked at himself in the bronze mirror. His lips, which were usually light red, had lost all vitality.

His face was as pale as paper, like a wandering spirit.

Looking at the face in the bronze mirror, he closed his eyes feebly, and let out a sneer between his lips and teeth.

The first emperor said that a stepping stone only needs to achieve its own function, and it does not need to live for too long.

He walked slowly to the dressing table and sat down. Facing the mirror, he smudged the lip balm with his fingertips, and his pale face became angry against the vermilion blooming on his lips.

There were footsteps outside the house, he wiped off the redness on his fingertips with a white handkerchief, got up and opened the door latch.

Xue Beiwang heard the movement, and said outside the house: "You know I'm here?"

He pushed open the door, only to see Xue Beiwang smiling silly while holding sweet water.

"Still standing stupidly at the door?"

"No...not." Xue Beiwang hurried into the room with sweet water in his hands, "Sit down first."

Bai Chengjue nodded and sat down at the table. Seeing Xue Beiwang holding the bowl of sweet water, he subconsciously rubbed his hot and red fingers on his earlobes.

Bai Chengjue pulled Xue Beiwang's wrist, bowed his head and blew on Xue Beiwang's burning red fingertips, and said helplessly, "Don't talk about finding a wooden support, you can bring it with a handkerchief soaked in cold water, you! You can't be more careful in doing things." , such a risk..."

What was supposed to be a lengthy reproach, looked at Xue Beiwang's smiling eyes, and finally turned into a helpless sigh, bowing his head and blowing on his red and swollen fingertips.

Xue Bei turned his head to look at Bai Chengjue's watery eyes and said, "Don't worry, it's not hot. The calluses on my hands are thick. If you don't believe me, feel them?"

Hearing this, Bai Chengjue sat upright and said, "Yes, you don't need me to comfort you, you insulated cocoon."

Seeing the little Huakui turned around and sitting upright, Xue Beiwang hastily dragged the high stool closer to Bai Chengjue, and passed his palm in front of him: "It hurts, blow it on."

Bai Chengjue grasped Xue Beiwang's wrist again, blowing a cool breeze into his palm.

Not long after, Xue Beiwang brushed his fingers over Bai Chengjue's forehead: "Are you feeling unwell? The hair on the forehead is all wet, and his complexion is not very good."

Bai Chengjue pretended to be calm, sat up straight, looked at Xue Beiwang with a smile and said, "I'm just a little tired after sitting for most of the night."

Xue Beiwang withdrew his hand, and hugged Bai Chengjue without saying a word. The movement was so urgent and fast that he was so frightened that he had no time to react with his hands, and subconsciously hugged Xue Beiwang's neck tightly.

It wasn't until the body fell on the bed that the arms around Xue Beiwang were slowly released.

Xue Beiwang took off his shoes and socks for him without saying a word, with his pursed lips and furrowed eyebrows, it seemed that he had suddenly formed a great hatred with someone.

"Looking north?"

Xue Beiwang covered his neck with the quilt, and gently stroked Bai Chengjue's cheek with his hand, his face still not relieved: "Sleep first, I want to drink sweet water, and I will cook it after you wake up."

"it is good."

……

After waking up again, Xue Beiwang leaned his back against the bed, closed his eyes and rested his mind.

With the dim light outside, Xu Shi slept until the next morning. Bai Chengjue raised his hand and rubbed his painful forehead. It was the first time he had slept so soundly in front of outsiders since he was a child.

I don't know if it's because his body is getting worse every day, or he has started to rely on Xue Beiwang unconsciously.

Xue Beiwang opened his eyes, and his body naturally moved closer to Bai Chengjue: "Is it better?"

"kindness."

"You sleep for a while, I'll boil sweet water, and I'll wake you up when it's done."

Bai Chengjue nodded, turned sideways and closed his eyes again.

Xue Beiwang looked at Bai Chengjue's sleeping face, his lips that had been wiped off had no color, and his face was weak and pale.

He wanted to raise his hand to touch that face, but he closed his palm in self-blame, got up and walked out of the house.

Stand in front of the stove.

Xue Beiwang recalled Bai Chengjue's pale face, and couldn't help but hammer the edge of the stove with his clenched fist.

"There is no news from the envoy for several days, and the master thought that something happened to the envoy."

There was resentment in his heart, but after hearing these yin and yang words, Xue Bei looked at the door unhappy.

I saw a masked man in a night suit outside the door.

Seeing that Xue Bei looked silent, the man said again: "Master said, if the envoy is still alive but doesn't come to the appointment, it must be a mistake due to beauty. Now I see that the master's estimate is really good. It seems that only when the fox is dead, the envoy will think of it." What is the purpose of this trip to Wu country!"

Xue Beiwang clenched the blade beside the stove, and said sternly, "You dare!"

"The envoy doesn't need to be angry. Since he is the envoy, the master will definitely not do anything wrong. He just wants to invite the oiran to the mansion as a guest, so he can leave some time for..." Before the words finished, following the scream of the man in black, The blade thrown by Xue Beiwang severed the right leg of the man in black below the knee.

Looking at the body that fell to the ground, Xue Beiwang walked up to the man in black, grabbed the man in black by the hair and dragged it out. The broken section of the wound brushed against the bluestone, and the man in black screamed in pain.

Xue Beiwang said in a deep voice, "If he's not in the room, I'll take off your other leg."

That tragic cry of pain was far less heart-wrenching than the little oiran's frown.

Xue Beiwang dragged him all the way to Bai Chengjue's bedroom, and the bloodstains spread all the way.

Seeing that the door was wide open, he let go of the man in black's hair and hurried into the room. The bed was already empty.
