I RELY ON BREASTFEEDING TO STABILISE THE DISEASE (73)
73. BARGAINING CHIPS
Chu Ran was silent, with no expression on her face, one could not see whether she was worried or believed in Gu Xian.
"Are you afraid?" Gu Qianyu also smiled and said, "You are afraid that I am right. That in his heart, you are not as important as the throne."
In front of Gu Qianyu, she has to be calm. As if she hadn't heard his words just now, she poured herself another glass of wine.
Gu Qianyu saw at her like this, and his eyes turned deep and profound. He thought Chu Ran was really interesting. Her reaction always exceeded his expectations.
"Don't waste your time trying to escape this time." Gu Qianyu narrowed his eyes dangerously.
"I won't run away." Chu Ran knew that with the experience of the last time, Gu Qianyu couldn't let go of his guard so easily.
Chu Ran continued: "Gu Qianyu, it was so hard for you to survive, why didn't you live incognito, is the throne so important?"
"As long as Gu Xian dies, Ben Wang will stop."
He held Chu Ran's head straight and said: "You remember what you just said, if you dare to leave Ben Wang again, I will kill you."
He grabbed her arm and dragged her to the bed. He pressed her whole body on the bed, and his eyes staring at Chu Ran were full of violence, containing a terrifying murderous aura.
"When we were in that other yard, I believed you would stay, but when I woke up, you had already escaped without a trace. These days I think about you every day, thinking that if one day I can catch you back, I will definitely abolish your legs."
Chu Ran was pressed heavily by him and there was no place that was not in pain. When she heard Gu Qianyu say this, her brows furrowed deeply, and the breath she exhaled became subtle as she trembled.
Gu Qianyu knew that Chu Ran was scared, and his tone gradually toned down: "As long as you are obedient, no one can hurt you, and neither will I."
Gu Qianyu slowly held Chu Ran by the shoulders and pulled a corner of her clothes away. His fingers touched Chu Ran's neck, and then slid downwards. Her chest rose and fell violently, like a trembling bird under his hands.
Chu Ran felt that his hands were as cold as a blade, making her unconsciously scared. She knew what Gu Qianyu wanted to do, her stomach churned, and she couldn't help feeling sick. Gu Qianyu's breathing became heavy and deep.
Chu Ran struggled a few times, and then tried to calm her voice, and said, "Gu Qianyu, let go."
Gu Qianyu seemed to have not heard her. He took a deep breath, and his cold lips fell on Chu Ran's neck. Chu Ran's whole body trembled, her eyes were extremely cold, like a dead pool of water.
"Gu Qianyu, I'm not afraid of death." She said, "If you still want to use me to threaten Gu Xian, let me go now."
Gu Qianyu's back stiffened and suddenly stopped all his movements. He breath heavily in Chu Ran's ear, and then smiled coldly: "Chu Ran, if you were willing to obey Ben Wang, Ben Wang would not have been so obsessed with you."
"Let go." Chu Ran coldly spat out these words.
Gu Qianyu smiled instead of being angry. He got up and adjusted his clothes. He looked at Chu Ran and said, "Ben Wang is waiting for the day when you will come to beg me."
...
Sun Shangcheng and the guards have been kneeling in front of the door for a long time. And at sunset, the Hengnan Wang Residence was becoming more and more colder.
Gu Xian has been sitting at the desk and has been awake for three days. It was rare to see him so haggard and slumped, but his eyes are blue at this time, his eyes have been fixed on the tea cup in his hand, and he hasn't said a word for a long time.
"Master, the Miss, she will be fine. Zeming Wang kidnapped her because he wanted to negotiate terms with you. You must not lose your cool now." Sun Shangcheng said.
Gu Xian's hands suddenly tightened, suppressing the restlessness in his heart, his voice was like a dead withered bamboo as he said, "It was Ben Wang who was too rash, and was too eager to destroy Gu Qianyu in one go. He and I should end it."
The purple robe on his body was full of brilliance like a bright jade. He lifted his eyes slightly, and the moonlight gradually shone in his gloomy eyes.
Seeing that Gu Xian had made up his mind, Sun Shangcheng finally put down the worries in his heart that had been hanging for three days.
Gu Xian said: "Ben Wang ordered the imperial guards to search for Chu Ran's trail. You go to lead the search team, and you must not ignore any place. Other places have been checked, and the only place they can go is in the north direction." Sun Shangcheng received the order and did not dare to delay too much. He immediately flew out of the royal residence.
...
The stove in the small courtyard house was burning with a pot of water, the tea sets on the table were all complete, and the exquisite porcelain glows uniquely in the lights. Chu Ran sat at the table, watching Gu Qianyu cooking tea.
He was a very person who knows how to enjoy himself very much. In such a shabby room, in such a situation, he can leisurely find tea. The bright red brocade robe on his body was really eye-catching, but his demonic beauty was not feminine, and the shady light at the bottom of his eyes was really terrifying.
He looked at Chu Ran with a smile in his eyes, turned the tea cup in his hand, and asked: "Want to learn?"
"No." Chu Ran replied.
"I like to drink tea. If you are willing to learn, I will be very happy."
Chu Ran didn't want to make Gu Qianyu happy: "Then I don't want to learn even more."
After hearing Chu Ran's words, Gu Qianyu chuckled lightly. He put down the tea cup in his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, there will be plenty of time later." He called the guards from outside to come in, whispered a few words, and the guards immediately went to carry out his instructions.
Gu Qianyu has not received any news from Gu Xian, and it can be seen that Gu Xian didn't like her much and that Chu Ran was really insignificant. It stands to reason that the kidnapping of Chu Ran did not cause Gu Xian to mobilize his troops. Gu Qianyu should have lost interest in Chu Ran, but at this moment he only wanted to take her back to his territory.
Gu Qianyu said, "Go and bathe, we will depart tomorrow."
Chu Ran said without looking up, "No."
"It's not a good thing to anger Ben Wang." Gu Qianyu's voice became colder. "Ben Wang will not kill you, so I can only use others to vent my anger. You must have never seen Ben Wang murder before, Ben Wang can't wait to let you see it." He reached out and pinched Chu Ran's chin, forcing her to stare at him.
"How many people you kill has nothing to do with me." Chu Ran's eyes were cold and unsympathetic, "Do as you wish."
Gu Qianyu squinted his eyes, and traced his fingers along Chu Ran's neck and landed on her chest, and said: "This heart of iron and steel, it still has the old nature of a dark guard."
Chu Ran did not speak nor cower in fright. Except for her mouth to gain the upper hand, she can't defeat Gu Qianyu in any way. In order to prevent her from escaping, Gu Qianyu forced her to take Stone Bone Dispersion to prevent her from escaping. At the moment, she couldn't afford any strength except for walking around.
At this time, a guard rushed in from the outside, with a strong murderous look on his face, and said to Gu Qianyu: "This subordinate has something important to report."
The guard stared at Chu Ran. The important thing that he wanted to say naturally couldn't let Chu Ran know. Without waiting for Gu Qianyu's order, Chu Ran first spoke: "I want to take a bath."
Gu Qianyu raised an eyebrow and said: "Why did you change your mind?"
Chu Ran looked at the guards who was not calm at all and knew that there were actions from Gu Xian's side. She smiled extremely weakly. It was the first time Gu Qianyu had seen her smile in so many days, but he didn't feel happy.
Chu Ran said, "Gu Xian is coming, I don't want him to see me in this state." Chu Ran stood up, her smiling brows glanced past Gu Qianyu, and walked towards the door slowly.
When the guard saw Chu Ran disappearing at the door, he said, "Hengnan Wang sent the Forbidden Army to conduct a large-scale investigation and search, and in our direction."
Gu Qianyu's eyes glowed with cold waves.
Now that they were still on the border of Pingyang, facing the search of the forbidden army, the guards were obviously a bit uneasy: "Your Majesty, what should we do?"
"What's there to panic about?" Gu Qianyu never cared about life or death, he only cared about winning or losing, so he was not afraid.
Gu Qianyu said: "Even if they confronted us head-on, those imperial troops may not be our opponent. Gather everyone and set off tomorrow."
