11. Phantom of the Night
Under the effect of the decoction, An Xin soon fell asleep.
In the fog, she seemed to hear the faint sound of footsteps, a fresh breath in her nose approached, and then she felt a warm hand gently caressing her face.
"Who?!"
An Xin screamed and woke up suddenly.
In the darkness, she saw a man sitting beside her.
Finding her awake, the man got up and hurried to the door.
"Who are you?"
An Xin got out of bed, but because of the pain in her legs, she couldn't walk fast, and when she chased out of the door, she only saw a long black shadow disappearing into the night in the courtyard like the wind.
The candle in the room had been extinguished, and An Xin clearly remembered that she hadn't gone out before going to bed.
Was the man afraid of being seen by her, so he turned off the lights?
She didn't see his face clearly, but she clearly remembered the feeling when he touched her, soft, warm, as if there was no malice.
After staring at the door for a long time, An Xin walked back to the room, and was sitting on the edge of the bed and lost her mind, when the door was suddenly pushed open with a "click".
The slender figure walked in, slammed the door shut, and the room was pitch black.
"Who?!"
Shu exclaimed, hurriedly leaned over and lit the lamp, and at the moment when the candlelight was on, she saw the person standing at the door clearly.
It's Chu Lingye.
He had a small piece of white cloth wrapped around his head, and his injuries were obviously not serious, and his eyes were slightly red, indicating that he had not fully sobered up.
"What, surprised?" Chu Lingye walked towards her, his handsome face was as cold as frost: "I didn't expect this king to come back alive?" ”
Now that he was standing in front of him, An Xin obviously felt his coldness, and trembled unconsciously: "You...... It's okay. ”
Her voice trembled because she was excited, because she was afraid.
Chu Lingye sounded like it meant something else.
"The princess has a weak heart?" The powerful big hand suddenly probed down, pinched An Xin's pale little face heavily, and the slightly hoarse voice fell like frost and snow:
"You're disappointed that you didn't kill this king, aren't you?"
After waking up, the mother concubine and Chu Jiaowan both said that An Xin wanted to harm him, but he refused to believe it at that time, and An Xin's panicked expression at this moment already said everything.
This woman not only took away the position of the princess who should have belonged to the woman he loved, but also murdered her husband the day after the wedding, how vicious did he marry?
Hatred surged with wine, and the strength in his hands grew stronger and stronger.
"Ah, midnight, ah......"
The bones on her face seemed to be crushed, and the pain that was too clear filled her face and spread all over her body like poison, An Xin wanted to explain, but his fingers were like iron tongs tightly choking her mouth, and she couldn't even moan in pain.
She could only look at him in pain, the man he loved in front of him stared at the dangerous cold eyes, his face was so gloomy and terrifying, it seemed that even if she was pinched to death like this, she would not have a little mercy.
What a hard-hearted man Chu Lingye is in this life.
At the moment, this haggard little face was distorted sharply, indicating that she was in pain, but she kept looking at him like this with her eyes stared, and her eyes were not painful but a kind of abnormal disappointment and resentment......
Her gaze reminded him of a person, and his heart seemed to be deeply pierced by a needle, and his hand suddenly lost its strength and let go heavily.
An Xin's snow-white face was imprinted with three blood-red finger prints, clear and eye-catching.
"Don't think you'll get anything by killing this king." Chu Lingye looked at her, and his cool gaze was like a bottomless cold pool in the two bays:
"There are many people in the world who want this king to die, what you fancy is only the king's money, don't worry, this king will give you some money when you leave, so don't try to calculate this king before this king retires you, otherwise you won't get anything!"
