Chapter 69: Jealousy
Zhou Huan didn't come out angrily, "I'm here to deliver medicine to His Highness, what if I delay His Highness's body to see you?" ”
The housekeeper didn't answer, and still stopped in front of Zhou Huan. There is no kind of medicine in the palace of the king of Chu, but he is not willing to disappoint this little girl.
Facing the unmoving housekeeper, Zhou Huan almost exhausted all his patience.
Just when the two of them were at a stalemate, a cough suddenly came from the room, and then Qi Yu's warm voice came from inside the room.
"Uncle Wang, let her in."
In fact, Qi Yu had already woken up, and he didn't speak just now because Chasing Feng was reporting to him. It turned out that the group of people really had something to do with the mine, and yesterday it was because their people were alarmed.
However, this trouble didn't matter, but it made Qi Yu find out a very important news, that is, the back of the mine is inseparable from the people in the court.
"Your Highness, are you better?" Zhou Huan, who was outside the door, hurriedly walked in, and then directly lifted the curtain and threw himself down to Qi Yu's side.
As a result, Qi Yu hadn't had time to put on his underwear because of the previous treatment of the wound.
As soon as Zhou Huan looked at it, he saw Qi Yu's chest, and then his cheeks suddenly turned red to the base of his neck. She's lived so long, and she's never had the slightest transgression with any man.
"You... You hurry up and get dressed. Zhou Huan covered his eyes and turned around and didn't dare to look at Qi Yu more.
Qi Yu on the bed couldn't close his mouth with a smile, he looked at the delicate and lovely person in front of him, and only felt a little more comfortable in his heart.
"Ahh Qi Yu suddenly screamed, so frightened that Zhou Huan hurriedly put down his hand and turned to look at him.
"What's wrong with you?" Zhou Huan looked Qi Yu up and down, thinking that it was his wound.
As a result, after looking around, Zhou Huan confirmed that Qi Yu had no problem. And, most importantly, his clothes have not yet been put on.
"You!" Zhou Huan thought that Qi Yu was teasing himself.
Qi Yu explained aggrievedly, "Daughter-in-law, my arm hurts and I can't put on clothes. After speaking, Qi Yu also tried to lift his arm, but he screamed in pain again.
Zhou Huan was worried, and reached out and grabbed Qi Yu's arm directly to prevent him from moving.
When the woman's slender fingers were a little cold, gently covering Qi Yu's arm, Qi Yu was stunned for a moment.
However, before he could react, Zhou Huan pulled up the quilt next to him and covered Qi Yu's body.
"The wound is not healed, and the quilt is not covered yet." Saying that, Zhou Huan let out a long breath, why did she think that this room was a little too hot.
Thinking about it, Zhou Huan suddenly remembered the medicine in his hand.
"Your Highness, this medicine is worthy of my adoptive father, and it can save people's lives at critical times, which is very precious." Zhou Huan told Qi Yu word by word, for fear that Qi Yu didn't hear the keyword.
"Therefore, His Highness keeps it and carries it with him, so that he will not be afraid of danger in the future."
Zhou Huan looked at Qi Yu in a daze, and he had to see the expression of approval on Qi Yu's face before he stopped.
In the end, Qi Yu obediently put the things in his arms, and Zhou Huan was relieved. But Qi Yu's heart was not very happy, Zhou Huan was so anxious to repay the kindness, just because he saved her once.
But the favor is returned, so wouldn't the two of them have nothing to do with each other.
The more Qi Yu thought about it, the more unhappy he became, and after talking to Zhou Huan a few more words, he lay down first under the pretext that he was tired.
Zhou Huan was going to accompany Qi Yu more, but when the sun just set, the Hou Mansion sent someone to pick up Zhou Huan back.
"You mean, the old lady asked Zhou Yan to pick me up?" Zhou Huan looked at the meal on the table that had not yet had time to start, and looked regretful. If she had known, she would have started eating earlier.
Yuxi nodded and looked at Zhou Huan puzzled. It stands to reason that Zhou Huan is the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion, and she should not be surprised by these things.
"Yes, miss, the young master is already waiting at the gate of the mansion." After Yuxi finished speaking, Zhou Huan didn't waste any more time, and now that the Zhou Mansion had just stabilized, she didn't want to make any more trouble for the Zhou Mansion.
Leaving the courtyard, Zhou Huan's direction was actually towards the gate of the mansion.
Yuxi followed behind Zhou Huan and said with a puzzled expression: "Miss, why don't we go over and inform His Royal Highness the King of Chu?" ”
Zhou Huan's scrutinizing gaze fell on Yuxi's body, and Yuxi immediately lowered his head.
"Forget it, he is injured and needs to recuperate, so we won't disturb His Highness to rest."
What Zhou Huan said was high-sounding, but in fact, she was just saying it to others. When I looked at Qi Yu today, Qi Yu's strange temper made Zhou Huan feel that he couldn't cope with it.
And in her eyes, Qi Yu is a child, and now she has a temper, so it will be good to coax her in two days.
At the door of the mansion, Zhou Yan, who was dressed in blue clothes, was standing there quietly, Zhou Huan looked over with a smile on the corner of his lips, and then realized that his younger brother didn't know when he was as tall as himself.
"Take me to dinner, your favorite noodle shop." Zhou Huan walked to Zhou Yan's side and spoke directly without being polite.
Zhou Yan was stunned, then nodded. After the conversation in Tongrentang, Zhou Yan felt that his relationship with Zhou Huan had changed a lot all of a sudden.
While eating, Zhou Yan's puzzled gaze finally fell on Zhou Huan. "How do you know I like to eat here?"
With a click, the sourness in Zhou Huan's eyes finally couldn't help it. A tear fell on the rice bowl in front of her, and she continued to eat as if she couldn't feel it.
In the previous life, Zhou Yan couldn't catch up with the day he got married because of something, so he deliberately brought Zhou Huan here on the day he left.
Zhou Huan clearly remembered that what Zhou Yan said to her at that time made her safe and white.
"It's too spicy, just put some chili."
The exact same words from before finally brought Zhou Huan back to his senses, "Resignation, can I call you like this?" ”
Resignation is Zhou Yan's word, but the family doesn't like this word, so no one else will call him by his name on weekdays.
Maybe it was because Zhou Huan's eyes looking at him were too sincere, Zhou Yan nodded without thinking about it. In the next second, a bright smile appeared on Zhou Huan's face, let's change her to protect this younger brother in this life.
"Actually, it wasn't the old lady who asked you to pick me up, right?" Zhou Huan suddenly smiled slyly.
As a result, Zhou Yan was stunned and looked at Zhou Huan suspiciously.
Zhou Yan's silence made Zhou Huan confirm his guess, Yuxi had already informed her of the Zhou family's every move earlier, so there was no reason for the old lady to come forward in this matter.
"So, who is it? Resignation. ”
Zhou Huan raised his head and looked at Zhou Yan in a daze, with a pair of amber eyes with a little oppression.
There's even a bit of grief......
Zhou Yan turned sideways, he didn't know why, he always felt that he could see a resentful Zhou Huan from Zhou Huan's body.
"Lin?" Zhou Huan shook his head and quickly denied his thoughts.
But she knows Zhou Yan, although the two of them had a disagreement on Zhou Meng's matter last time, they shouldn't be.
Zhou Huan straightened his expression, "Resignation, I am with His Royal Highness the King of Chu, there is a problem with this matter, you should know about it." I'm not afraid to tell you that we were assassinated, so I had to say that it was with the King of Chu. ”
Zhou Yan's eyes sank slightly, and he didn't have any prejudices about Zhou Huan in his heart.
"But you are coming to pick me up now, and in the name of the old lady, ostensibly for me, what is the reality?"
Zhou Yan suddenly realized, "The old lady blames you, and the people in the mansion will soon know that you spent the night outside." ”
"No, it's not Fuzhong, maybe the person who asked you to pick me up won't be so kind, and she might let the whole capital know. At that time, what will happen to my marriage to Qi Yu? ”
Zhou Huan guessed things in the darkest direction, but Zhou Yan nodded unexpectedly.
She knows that the difference between Zhou Yan and others is that although he is actually a child of a family, he is peeping into the world with eyes that others can't detect. That's why Zhou Yan's methods are so frightening.
"I see." Zhou Yan looked at Zhou Huan seriously, and then sighed with a complicated expression. "Sorry, this is the last time."
His implication was that he wouldn't tell Zhou Huan.
"Since you want to protect that person, then I won't embarrass you, but if I find out in the future, you must not stop me."
Zhou Huan put down the chopsticks in his hand, and then turned around and left silently.
Not far away, Yuxi was waiting for her there. After seeing Zhou Huan coming, Yuxi looked at her young lady suspiciously.
"Miss, aren't we going back?"
Zhou Huan shook his head and glanced at Zhou Yan behind him. The arrogant back of the young man is distressing. Today's showdown with Zhou Yan is also something she has been thinking about for a long time, and she still has a lot of things to deal with next, so Zhou Yan can't block herself anymore.
"Let's go back."
Yuxi hurriedly followed Zhou Huan's footsteps, but, wait, the route taken by his own young lady was not the way back to Zhou's mansion.
"Miss, you ......"
Zhou Huan stopped in hindsight, and then waited for Yuxi to come to his side, and then smiled and said, "Of course, I will go back to my future husband's house." ”
Yuxi was surprised and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
The black shadow who had been silently following Zhou Huan and Yuxi not far away nodded reassuringly after hearing this, and was ready to go back to report to his master.
"You mean, she and that Zhou Yan went to eat alone?"
Qi Yu, who was leaning on the bed, his clothes were half-undone, and his originally sharp facial features suddenly became a little more displeased.
After Chasing Feng, who was standing in the dark to report the matter, heard Qi Yu say this, he quickly nodded. But I was surprised in my heart, why wasn't Miss Zhou back for what my master cared about?
