I RELY ON BREASTFEEDING TO STABILISE THE DISEASE (13)
13. SHE TURNED OUT TO BE A SPY
Sun Shangcheng saw Gu Xian walk out of the inner room after getting dressed, "Presumably, Miss Chu will return to the residence tomorrow."
Gu Xian suddenly chuckled lightly, with a smile that bloomed like a hibiscus: "She is not that good! Continue to send people to followed her, push her secretly and lead her back to the Wangfu(王府, prince's residence)." He took the tea cup on the table, turned the cup, and ordered: "Remember, don't hurt her."
"Master, if Miss Chu is still reluctant to return to the Wangfu?"
"If she won't return, you don't need to as well." Gu Xian drank the cup of herbal tea, suppressing the irritation caused by his milk addiction.
When Sun Shangcheng heard Gu Xian's words, he could only feel a chill running down his back.
Sometimes he really couldn't figure out why his master let Miss Chu go out, and secretly forced Miss Chu to come back by herself. This kind of calculation on a girl is too shameless.
Chu Ran walked aimlessly on the streets, the resentment in her heart could really suffocate her, she fell from the clouds to the bottom. She had already planned to use those five thousand taels to buy a small house and buy a shop to make a living. Then she won't need to worry for the rest of her life.
It's not good, let alone livelihood, survival was still a problem, but no matter what, Chu Ran didn't plan to go back to the Wangfu for help.
Without a place to stay, Chu Ran could only deal with it for one night and take shelter in the ruined temple. Fortunately, she had a few taels to buy two steamed buns, and managed to pass one night.
She sat by the fire, hugging her knees, and her mind wandered back to when the two of them were alone. He had looked at herself that way, deep and focused as though she was the only one in his eyes.
Chu Ran knew that it was always just an illusion, because apart from that look, she was just his tool for healing.
She seemed to have had a long nightmare in her dazedness. Those previous events have actually passed, but when she thought of it, her eyes felt sour. Chu Ran felt as if she was crying in a dream, but it felt so real.
She didn't realize that it was not a dream until she felt a touch of a finger at the corner of her eys. She was really crying.
But what a nightmare! It's really a leak in the roof in a rainy night! Who else did she meet? Now that she doesn't even have any money on her, how should she deal with the robbery?
Chu Ran felt cold when she thought of it. The hand that covered her face and gently wiping the tears from the corner of her eye was more terrifying than a poisonous snake. She forced herself to remain calm and not sabotage herself. She tried to relax her body so that the culprit would not realize that she was awake.
The man wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with his fingers and said, "Wake up and stop pretending!"
The man took her into his arms. He lowered his head and took in the fragrance of her hair and dropped a kiss on her forehead and asked: "How do you think you should be punished for not completing your task?"
Being held in this way by him, that frightening aura within reach, Chu Ran couldn't relax. She couldn't help but stiffen, especially when the feather-like kiss fell on her forehead, she almost couldn't help but jump away.
Who is this?! He hugged her and kissed her, as if he knows herself very well.
But she must hold back and try to calm herself down and secretly figure out how to escape.
"If you don't open your eyes, I'll take off your clothes!" The man smiled.
Chu Ran opened her eyes immediately, and saw that the man's skin that was paler than ordinary people, almost transparent and sickly, his sword eyebrows slanted diagonally into his temple, a pair of long and narrow phoenix eyes, the corners of his eyes were slightly upwards, soul-stirring and capturing people's heart. Even smiling makes him feel gloomy, like an ancient sword full of murderous intent, which makes people fearful.
Chu Ran trembled.
The man pinched her chin, forcing her to look up.
"Do you remember to be afraid of me now?"
His hands were as cold as frozen ice, coupled with that extremely unnatural paleness, and his cold voice, Chu Ran had the illusion that the person in front of her was not a living person.
"No, no." She stammered, talking too quickly that she almost bit her tongue.
The man snorted coldly, his eyes locked on her face. Chu Ran felt like she was being stared at by a poisonous snake, and the fear in her heart intensified.
The man looked at her for a moment, and he was quite surprised. He said: "It seems that the lessons I taught you last time were not enough!"
Chu Ran was stunned by these words. The man had already let go of his hands before she could ponder the meaning of the words carefully.
"Have you noticed Gu Xian's abnormality recently?" he asked.
She watched him pull out a snow white brocade handkerchief at random, slowly wiping the dirty marks on her face.
Chu Ran choked.
Until she felt that he was about to look over at her again, she immediately said: "Nothing!"
What can she even find? At best, she just had the identity of a nanny. At the same time, she couldn't help but wonder, what was the identity of her original body owner? What does it have to do with this man? Listening to his words, she was obviously a spy by Gu Xian's side.
