Chapter 627: I Didn't Lie to You
Sheng Mingzhu stood by the door holding the doorknob, pursing her lips and staring at He Jingchuan with a somewhat wary face.
She could hear the sound of the other party's breathing, and in this quiet room, it gradually became faster, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of unease in her heart.
"He Jingchuan, what's wrong with you, you speak!"
She seems to have encountered such a scene once before, also in a relatively confined space, and it is also He Jingchuan who is so breathing that he can't find a direction.
Sheng Mingzhu felt that he had to tolerate the other party's unreasonable troubles again and again, but he did not make this man feel any remorse at all.
He Jingchuan stretched out his hand with some difficulty, picked up the bottle of 72-year-old Boston red wine on the table, gritted his teeth and suppressed the restlessness in his heart and looked at the label on it.
He didn't expect that he, who had always been sharp and alert, would be so negligent and planted on this kind of trick that can't be put on the table.
“…… Someone drugged my wine," he tried to calm his trembling voice, and explained to Sheng Mingzhu word for word, "I didn't expect it to be like this......"
However, Sheng Mingzhu did not let go of his heart after hearing his explanation, but felt extremely ridiculous.
The trust she had in her heart for He Jingchuan had completely collapsed because of the other party's repeated troubles to Bo Sicheng, and it was impossible for her to choose to believe that the generals of the Shengshi Empire would make such a mistake.
"Isn't it funny that you say such an excuse?"
Sheng Mingzhu lowered his head in disappointment and smiled faintly, feeling that He Jingchuan's trip was like challenging his limits.
“…… I didn't lie to you, I really don't know who drugged the wine. ”
He Jingchuan saw the suspicious look on her face, and he was also saddened, they once trusted each other to fight on the battlefield together, how could they have imagined that there would be such a day when they would be questioned and speculated by the other party in the future.
He let out a deep sigh in his throat, stood up in his chair, and staggered all the way into the bathroom.
He had already sworn that he would not do anything to hurt Sheng Mingzhu again, not to mention that he had already done such a foolish thing once, and he would not be able to do it again.
He Jingchuan unscrewed the shower on the top of his head, let the cold water pour down from it, and drenched himself all over, and he didn't want to get close to Sheng Mingzhu half a step and do something that he would regret for the rest of his life.
Sheng Mingzhu watched the other party sitting on the floor tiles in the bathroom, his body was already soaked with cold water, and his mood became complicated.
She even began to wonder if she had misunderstood He Jingchuan, after all, although the other party was ruthless on the battlefield, he had never overstepped her actions when facing her, except for that time when she was drunk and confused, she almost made a mistake.
People are not perfect and will always make mistakes, even Sheng Mingzhu himself is not every choice and decision is so correct that it is beyond reproach.
Although she hated He Jingchuan's idea of wantonly violating the territory of other countries to plunder resources, and his persistence in being loyal to the prosperous empire without a sense of right and wrong.
But deep down in her heart, she still hopes that this man who has grown up with her since she was a child and followed her to fight on the battlefield and experienced life and death can change his mind and realize his problems.
“…… I know you hate me. ”
Zhang Yufang secretly poured the medicine into the red wine, and the effect was extremely violent, making He Jingchuan's breathing become more and more rapid: "From the time I planned to obey the emperor's orders and knew that one day I would eventually attack this planet, the two of us would eventually stand in opposite positions and become enemies." ”
This is what He Jingchuan can't choose, and the word loyalty is even more important to him than life.
He admired Sheng Mingzhu deeply, and he was eager to convey this precious heart to the other party, but the relationship between them was no longer as simple as being able to fall in love.
This is mixed with the interests and honors between planets and countries, as well as the noble dignity of He Jingchuan as a native of the prosperous empire.
"Let's go, Pearl."
He Jingchuan was extremely difficult to control his somewhat wavering will, afraid that he would do something to Sheng Mingzhu that he would regret for the rest of his life under the fierce urging of the medicinal power.
He clutched the shower in the bathroom so hard that his fingers were so fierce that his palms were even cut by sharp places, dripping two drops of blood, but he still didn't feel like he lowered his head and said: "I don't want to hurt you, whether you want to believe me or not, I still want to tell you that it is really not my intention that things will develop to this point." ”
Sheng Mingzhu looked at his hot and red body that was forced by the drug, and the big drops of sweat fell down the other party's forehead and fell into the collar and got wet, and he also knew that the other party's situation was really not good.
She is a deep-level medical researcher, and she naturally knows very well how harmful this drug is to the human body, especially if she does not relieve it like this, it will only make his body and heart suffer more torture.
It would have been nice if she had the healing equipment at hand, but she was locked in her room in this fancy hotel, and the only thing in the room was a bottle of Boston red wine mixed with medicine.
Sheng Mingzhu was frowning and thinking about what to do, when he heard the sound of a rope coming from the door of the room, as if someone was picking the lock.
She subconsciously thought that it was the maintenance worker who had just called from the hotel's internal phone, and a glimmer of hope suddenly ignited in her heart, and she waited patiently with bated breath for the other party to open the locked door.
Sheng Mingzhu stood by the door with his hands clenched and waited for two or three minutes, and finally heard a crisp click as he wished, and the person outside the door reached out and twisted the doorknob to open the door.
Before the joy in her heart could be fully displayed on her face, she was stunned by the sudden rush of people.
More than a dozen news media reporters and paparazzi from gossip magazines who came out of nowhere rushed in without saying hello, holding cameras to shoot Sheng Mingzhu and He Jingchuan, who was flushed in the bathroom.
Lonely men and widows in the same room, coupled with He Jingchuan, who was obviously in a state and looked a little wrong, was enough for those reporters who caught something and wrote it all over to make a big report.
Things went on completely beyond Sheng Mingzhu's expectations, and as soon as the tabloid news was published, it immediately fermented like crazy.
