Chapter 10.2 - Injured by an a.s.sa.s.sin
After Lou Qingwu was carried and placed down by Li Jingsheng into her room, he saw how almost transparently pale her face was.
His heart suddenly filled with an undeniable pity, unable to resist himself, he gently asked, “How is it? Does it hurt a lot? The doctor will be here soon, just try to bear with it.”
“No … I’m fine.” Lou Qingwu weakly shook her head, her large eyes reflected his image like crystals.
Li Jingsheng’s heart moved, countless feelings surged in him and suddenly, he gripped her hand, “Qingwu, I didn’t think that there would be anyone who would take a knife for this general … this general ...this general “
“Second gentleman … don’t speak like that …”
Lou Qingwu lowered her eyes, her pale face flushed red because of his actions, “Qingwu … willingly did it, especially because you’re my little sister’s future husband. If anything happened to you, little sister would definitely be heartbroken.”
“....”
Li Jingsheng widened his eyes, he was moved, what a virtuous and kindhearted girl, “Qingwu, today you saved this general, this general will definitely repay you well.”
“... en.” Lou Qingwu lifted her head, her lips pale as she laughed weakly.
But as she lowered her eyes, they were ice cold and mocking, repay? That year when she willingly took a knife for another man, that man also said he’d repay her well.
He even said he’d treat her well for a lifetime but in eight years, those deep feelings became a lie.
They were all a lie and they all turned into the blood that dripped out of her dead body, drop by drop.
So, how could she believe that?
She tilted her head and opened her eyes, watching the anxious and worry filled man usher in the doctor.
She smiled and her laughter became deeper but her eyes remained cold.
But when Li Jingsheng turned around, Lou Qingwu slowly closed her eyes. Little sister, my present’s nearly done.
She believed that her little sister would definitely enjoy it.
In a place where Lou Qingwu didn’t notice, past the window, a long figure stood by the wall.
But when those clear and handsome eyes fell on the girl’s cold laughter, they flashed helplessness.
He lightly sighed and the cold sound spread into the air, only disappearing after a long while …
The doctor quickly bandaged Lou Qingwu but because the wound was slightly slanted, there was no major harm.
But even then, she had to rest well for a month. The doctor finished ordering and filled out a prescription before he left.
Li Jingsheng sent off the doctor and turned around to find Lou Qingwu already fast asleep.
He lovingly watched her for a long time before finally bending down.
His face was so close to hers that they almost touched as his eyes stared fixedly at her beautiful face, his heart felt like small hands were tugging tightly on it.
A strange feeling filled up his heart from the very bottom as his eyes darkened. In the end, he only fixed her blankets for her and turned around.
When he left, his eyes instantly turned cold.
His subordinate followed him immediately, “Second gentleman, the county governor is still waiting on you to deal with the third gentleman’s affairs …”
“Let him deal with it himself!” Li Jingsheng narrowed his eyes menacingly, “Last time he said that third brother had died and turned into a human skin painting. But didn’t he come back to life again? Let him find him, and if he doesn’t find him, then he’ll join him!”
“Yes!” The subordinate paled, “Oh and second gentleman, laoye has sent a letter. He said for you to come as soon as possible for the emperor’s banquet!”
“En?” Li Jingsheng raised an eyebrow, his eyes suddenly brightened, “Yes, we’ll leave immediately.”
“But Miss Lou …”
Li Jingsheng turned around to look at him, “Be careful, it’ll be fine. When we get back to the capitol, we’ll find a better doctor for her!”
Even though he was moved by Lou Qingwu saving his life, the emperor’s birthday banquet was serious business.
Father would most likely take advantage of this banquet to let him rise up in official ranks again so after all this time, he definitely won’t let anything threaten his career! Definitely!
“Also, take your fastest horse and tell Li He to investigate whether or not there were any survivors from that Tang family? If he finds any, kill without hesitation!”
“Yes!”
After Li Jingsheng left, a man moved towards Lou Qingwu’s rooms.
His clear eyes fell on Lou Qingwu’s small pale face and with a complicated expression, walked over and placed his long fingers on her forehead.
But just as his fingers reached forwards, they were grabbed.
