Chapter 122 His Highness is Pretending to Be Serious Again (76)
Chapter 122 His Highness is Pretending to Be Serious Again (76)
Chu Yuchen received the news shortly after Su Ran's death.
He stood in the yard, looking at the layout of the yard with the help of moonlight and lanterns on the corridor, his face cold and expressionless.
This was a design that Su Ran personally designed before he left the palace. It was personally built by someone, and every aspect of it looked very elegant.
He was thinking about what the servant had just reported.
He had anticipated such an outcome.
A person like Su Ran who is proud, face-conscious, and competitive would not be willing to live in a cell until the day of execution, to be watched and despised by others.
As expected, she ended her own life.
Chu Yuchen's eyes dimmed, and then he scoffed, mocking himself for not having completely given up on Su Ran, and mocking himself for not being able to get himself out of it.
Of course Chu Yuchen hated Su Ran, but when she died, the hatred in his heart seemed to disappear.
The memories in my mind are sometimes fuzzy and sometimes clear.
Since when did the gentle mother start to become hypocritical?
I will no longer care whether he is happy today, whether he feels unwell, or whether he has eaten on time.
I will never preach to him again, and I will not care whether he is wronged or not. All I care about is profit. As long as there is profit, I will do anything, regardless of his feelings.
She began to no longer take anyone seriously and only had herself in her eyes.
Chu Yuchen chose to obey again and again, in exchange for her taking it for granted and her indifference.
This was the first time Chu Yuchen did not listen to her, and it was also the last time, because she died, died in that cold palace.
His eyes dimmed, and he didn't understand why he still felt uncomfortable. He should be happy.
The person who had bound him for so many years was finally dead. He should feel relieved.
He no longer had to listen to her.
Forget it, since I still can't let go, I'll do one last thing for her, bring her body back and bury her properly.
After this incident, there will be no more connection or entanglement between them, and everything that happened will be forgotten.
It vanished like a passing cloud. From the moment of burial, they had completely drawn a line in the sand, cut ties, and were now clear of each other...
For many years, I was just a child who had been loved. I couldn't accept the gap and made countless compromises in the hope of getting that person's love again.
I hope she can change, change her mind, and go back to the way she was before. As long as she repents, everything will be forgiven.
But in the end, she didn't, and even smashed everything he had sincerely devoted to her into pieces with her own hands.
…………
…………
At this time, Shen Youan was sitting on the swing, staring at the uninvited guest with a cold face.
Mu Chen saw the displeasure in his eyes, and felt a little disappointed. He lowered his eyes and said nothing.
"Do you want to know who I am?"
Mu Chen looked at Shen Youan, whose face was white and bright in the moonlight, and he looked even more attractive.
Mu Chen only realized at this moment that Shen Youan did have some of the same feelings as Mu Rou, but in the end, it was just a cover, just a cover to get close to people.
I am interested in him, but the person in front of me is already taken.
This is also the reason why he never showed up again after Chu Yuxiao came back. He didn't want to see the two of them getting bored, and he didn't want to see the person in front of him standing on the opposite side of himself to help others.
"In no mood"
Shen Youan did want to know who he was at the beginning, but now he doesn't care anymore, because it's not important, it's just a momentary curiosity
Mu Chen slowly stretched out his hand and gently took off the mask on his face. As the mask gradually left his face, a stern face was revealed.
Mu Chen stared at the emotions in Shen Youan's eyes, but the person in front of him didn't seem to care at all. He felt a little lost.
He always knew that he looked good, but it was a pity that he couldn't attract the people in front of him.
"My sister died because she was caught up in your open and secret struggles."
Deep in Mu Chen's eyes, there seemed to be a faint haze spreading. He frowned tightly, and his eyes revealed endless sadness and pain.
Shen Youan was stunned. Does this have anything to do with him?
Seeing the doubts of the people in front of him, Mu Chen slowly began to speak.
"About five or six years ago, I came alone, with my little sister and a backpack, to this bustling and bustling capital city full of opportunities and challenges."
"At that time, I was young and full of vigor, full of passion and longing for the future."
"I created an organization called Death Pavilion to do things for others."
“As a newly established organization, it faces numerous difficulties and challenges, which require a lot of time and energy to manage.”
"So, I got caught up in the busyness, running around all day and working hard, and had no time to take care of my blind sister."
"Despite all the hardships, I never had the slightest thought of giving up."
When he said this, tears welled up in his eyes, as if he was filled with nostalgia for Mu Rou. He missed the delicate little girl who relied on him and called him brother.
"In my heart, protecting my sister is my greatest responsibility and belief in this life. So no matter how much pressure I face, or how many setbacks and hardships I encounter, I will grit my teeth and persevere..."
After saying so much, Mu Chen knew that he should get to the point.
"Do you still remember the day you were assassinated on your way back from your mother's home?"
Shen Youan nodded
"The assassin hid in the pharmacy I opened. I spent several years curing her eyes, but later due to improper use of the medicine, she became unable to speak."
"She had a hard life and I failed to take good care of her."
Speaking of this, Mu Chen smiled bitterly. He is not a good brother.
"Because you were stabbed, the assassin knew that my sister saw him, so he turned back and killed her."
"That day, when I felt something was wrong, I immediately went into her room. She was lying quietly in a pool of blood, as if she had lost all her vitality."
"Her body was covered in blood, staining the ground around her red. It was shocking. I couldn't imagine what she had been through."
Mu Chen spoke for a long time. After listening to him, Shen Youan was silent for a moment, not knowing what to think.
No wonder they wanted to kill him that day. It turned out that he had killed his sister. He was a bad man.
“Then why didn’t you do it later?”
Shen Youan concealed the indifference in his eyes and felt a little guilty.
"nothing"
Mu Chen put away his sad mood and replied nonchalantly
"Wait here, I'll give your sister something."
Shen Youan doesn't like to be troubled by such bad emotions, so he can only try his best to make some compensation.
Mu Chen didn't expect that he would change his opinion of himself so easily. His eyes flashed. It was a pity that he was already someone else's.
Shen Youan came into the room
Take out the things that draw the talisman
The talisman I drew this time is about reincarnation, a peace talisman. Of course, there are many types of peace talismans.
The girl had passed away not long ago, and drawing this talisman and burning it before her grave could help her reincarnate into a happy family soon. May she be able to live smoothly, peacefully and healthily every day in her next life.
This is the last thing Shen Youan can do for her, the girl he has never met before.
Shen Youan came out of the room and Mu Chen was still waiting outside.
At this time, Shen Youan drew this talisman, which not only consumed his energy, but also some of his luck.
It has no effect on the body
But it still has a great impact on the mortal bodies of this world
Mu Chen stared at the person coming out, his face pale, as if he had a serious illness, and if he was not careful, he would faint.
"What’s wrong with you"
A trace of worry flashed in the depths of Mu Chen's eyes. He frowned slightly and pursed his lips.
"No problem, this is for your sister. Just burn the talisman in front of her grave. It will ensure her a safe and peaceful next life."
Shen Youan said this, but he was afraid that the person in front of him would not believe him.
He took the initiative to say
"If you don't believe me, you can ask someone to look at this spell."
There should still be some capable people in this world who can see it.
But just because you can see it doesn't mean you can draw it.
"Thank you"
Mu Chen took it and the talisman in his hand
Next second
Chu Yuxiao walked through the gate of the yard and strode in
Seeing the scene of Shen Youan handing something to someone, Chu Yuxiao paused and said nothing.
Mu Chen noticed someone coming in and stared at Chu Yuxiao in the distance.
Chu Yuxiao was wearing a gorgeous suit of black clothes that was as black as ink. The black clothes were well-cut and perfectly outlined his tall and slender figure. He also exuded a noble aura.
As expected of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he is indeed better than others in everything.
"Ah Xiao"
Seeing him coming back, Shen Youan shouted in surprise, seemingly not realizing that this scene would be misunderstood.
"Come here, An'er"
Seeing him calling him, Chu Yuxiao put away the emotions in his eyes, tried his best to suppress his dissatisfaction with the man, and said softly
Sure enough, Shen Youan immediately walked to his side obediently. When Shen Youan came closer,
Chu Yuxiao only then noticed that the person's face was so pale.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Chu Yuxiao's discomfort was replaced by worry. He raised his hand and touched the face of the person in front of him and asked
“I feel a little dizzy.”
Shen Youan rubbed his hand and replied obediently
Seeing this scene, Mu Chen felt a little uncomfortable, so he left, holding the talisman in his hand, unable to express his feelings.
He will not come again. As for the talisman, he will visit his sister tomorrow.
Chu Yuxiao saw Mu Chen leave on his own initiative and did not react. He recognized the man, the owner of the pharmacy, and he had a good memory.
After thinking about it, I probably understood a little bit. Looking at the person in front of me, I felt uncomfortable.
He picked the man up by the waist and scolded him slightly.
“I ran out even though I was feeling unwell”
After saying that, he patted the person's butt with his big hand.
Shen Youan, who was slapped on the buttocks by him, became a little shy. He pursed his lips and showed an innocent look.
In fact, he knew that Ah Xiao was unhappy, but he didn't dare to speak, and he had nothing to do with that person.
Seeing him like this, Chu Yuxiao couldn't bear to say anything. He looked dumbfounded and his face looked pitiful.
Shen Youan nestled in his arms
After explaining what happened in a few words, Chu Yuxiao nodded.
His guess was correct, but he still felt unhappy that the person in front of him was meeting another man late at night.
But then he thought of the person An'er mentioned, frowned, and said nothing.
After returning to the room, Shen Youan explained the reason why he looked pale.
Chu Yuxiao is a superior, so it is very difficult for him to have mercy on someone. Even if he does, it will only last for a moment.
Chu Yuxiao sighed, looked at the person sitting obediently on the bed, half squatted and touched his face
"Do you still remember what I said?"
"Always put yourself first. I won't say anything to you this time, but don't do it next time, no matter who you are."
"I only hope that you can be safe and happy. I will take care of everything else. There are many ways to compensate you. If it makes you feel unwell, then I won't do it."
Chu Yuxiao looked at the person in front of him, hoping that he would listen.
What he disliked was not this time of drawing the talisman, but the next time he was worried that if it was more serious, would Shen Youan also pay more?
If one day something serious happens and he has to sacrifice his life, will he also give it without reservation?
Chu Yuxiao only hopes that Shen Youan can care more about him
"But her death is ultimately related to me. What I can do is just an ordinary thing. What I can do to help her may not necessarily be what she wants. She may just want to stay with her brother."
"I killed her."
Shen Youan felt a little guilty when he said this, and he didn't know what to do. He felt that the girl was very pitiful.
Shen Youan's eyes were red, and he was at a loss. The person in front of him was so mean to him, and he felt a little wronged.
"I don't blame you too much this time, but next time, don't do this again. An'er is very powerful, I know."
Chu Yuxiao leaned forward and kissed his loved one on the mouth, coaxing softly
"I'm sorry, I spoke to An'er so seriously just now. I'm sorry, An'er."
Shen Youan heard the man in front of him apologize, and he also understood that he was just worried about him, but because of his face, he didn't want to forgive him so quickly, so he kept silent.
"An'er, that's great. Please stop being angry. Please forgive me, okay?"
Chu Yuxiao knew him well, so he stopped squatting and sat on the bed, hugged him, buried his head in the crook of his neck, and rubbed him gently.
Shen Youan felt a little itchy when he rubbed him, and he felt embarrassed to continue to be so polite.
"Well, you should tell me nicely next time."
Chu Yuxiao sneered, "Silly An'er, he was very easy to talk to just now. If he was really angry, his good An'er would probably be scared and cry."
"What are you laughing at? Do you understand?"
Seeing that he still dared to laugh, Shen Youan became a little embarrassed and reached out to pat him.
"I understand, An'er. An'er is the greatest. I promise."
Chu Yuxiao thought he looked so cute, so he grabbed his hand and said
This matter is almost over here, so Chu Yuxiao did not mention it anymore and just said a few words about what happened tonight.
When Shen Youan heard that Su Ran committed suicide, he was stunned. He never thought that she would be so decisive.
Shen Youan thought she was the kind of person who was afraid of death, but unexpectedly...
