The candles in the bedroom were bright, so that the writing would not hurt the eyes. But at this time, Le Zhi's profile was close to Huo Du's neck, and the corner of his eyes could clearly see the two people embracing on the ground...
The heart of the candle swayed lightly, and the figures on the ground swayed with it, but what remained the same was the posture of the two—close and inseparable.
The shallow smile on Le Zhi's face condensed slightly, and his eyes were slightly startled, as if he was lost for a moment.
The palms around his waist loosened, and Huo Du put his arms around Le Zhi's shoulders, keeping a distance from her, "Can you write something else now?"
Looking at each other, Le Zhi stared at those peach blossom eyes seriously, trying to find some different emotions from the bottom of his eyes—
No, there is still only indifference and alienation, no different from the past.
Le Zhi let out a sigh of relief and smiled.
Fortunately, the thoughtful thinking just now was probably just her illusion. Sometimes, Lezhi is very contradictory in his heart—
On the one hand, she hoped that Huo Du would like her, so that she would not be too restrained in doing things; on the other hand, she was afraid that Huo Du liked her too much, which worried her more than he didn't like her.
Although they didn't get along for a long time, Cola Branch had already sensed the dangerous aura emanating from Huo Du. Moreover, he seems to be able to read people's hearts, and his thoughts are meticulous but calm.
How could Lezhi not know that when he provokes such a person, it is easy to play with fire if he is not careful.
In all fairness, Huo Du was really nice to her. So that she, as a princess of a subjugated country, can still live decently in Daqi. He even allowed her to take revenge.
Le Zhi thought that between her and Huo Du, they could be allies who use each other, or comrades-in-arms with a common goal. Other than that, there can be no other feelings.
Even if Huo Du did not participate in the war of Qi State to destroy Li State. But from the day the Qi army stepped into the capital of the Li kingdom, there was always an indelible wall between the Dali Le clan and the Da Qi Huo clan.
However, one code is one code. In terms of fairness, Le Zhi was shocked to realize that he and Huo Du were miraculously similar. Therefore, she thought about helping Huo Du secure the throne as her reward.
The premise is that Huo Du does not change his hexagram and does not prevent her from taking revenge, including killing his father... Huo Changyun.
Is it difficult
Blood is thicker than water, she is indeed a little whimsical.
So sometimes, Le Zhi hopes that Huo Du can be simple and rough, and take what he wants from her. For example, her body, for example, using her relationship with Huo Xu to help him seek benefits...
If so, in the future, when they turn against each other, she can be less ashamed.
Huo Du kept looking at Le Zhi's dazed appearance, but didn't say anything to urge her.
- He knew in his heart that her mind was very deep. That's right, if someone who has been betrayed is still as naive as before, then they are called stupid.
The candle burns to the heart of the candle, making a small crackling sound.
Her eyes moved slightly, Le Zhi's thoughts were pulled back, she lowered her eyes and sighed silently.
I really think too much, maybe people just treat her as a gadget at all! Why bother yourself.
Seeing the figure on the ground again, Le Zhi raised her head, her expression returned to normal, and she nodded her head. She was still sitting on Huo Du's lap, slowly approaching the desk, picking up a pen and writing...
After a while, she picked up the paper and handed it to Huo Du.
Huo Du stretched out his hand and took it leisurely, casually looking at the content on the paper, it was five words—
The shadows are full of branches.
He chuckled lightly and did not deliberately imitate Huo Xu's handwriting. These words were probably written in her usual way.
The writing is neat and decisive, not like the words of ordinary girls, soft and soft.
"This is?"
Le Zhi blinked and smiled slyly, "Thanks to His Highness."
Hearing this, Huo Du glanced at her, and a look of disgust appeared on his cold white face.
The meaning couldn't be more obvious—
Just these few broken words, are you embarrassed to thank you
"Respect is light and affectionate."
Huo Du sneered lightly, he leaned close to her ear and said with a smile, "I didn't study hard when I was young, why don't I have the Crown Princess come to tell me, Duying is full of branches, what does this mean?"
After a pause, he deliberately tightened the hand on Le Zhi's waist to bring her closer to him. Thin lips seemed to lightly touch the tip of her ear, and he continued to ask, "The branches are full... How to fill them?"
The cool mint breath swept past his ears, and Lezhi's cheeks began to turn red—
Start again!
Deliberately misinterpreted.
Le Zhi knew what he meant, but she didn't want to do what he meant every time. She put her hands on Huo Du's shoulders, stood up, took his palms and put them on her heart, and said softly, "Full of meaning, His Highness is now occupying all branches of his heart!"
Huo Du smiled and listened to her nonsense, fading away the heavy worry when she was distracted just now, and she could always quickly return to her hypocritical appearance. He knew that from beginning to end, every time she deliberately approached and tried, she had her own purpose.
Without further ado, Huo Du just pulled his palm back and stared at those fox eyes, his lacquer eyes heavy.
Xu Shi Huo Du's gaze was too hard to guess. When Le Zhi was nervous, the wound on her shoulder was a little stinging, and she couldn't help frowning.
"The wound hurts?"
Le Zhi hummed, "A little..."
"Sit down and collapse." Huo Du was helpless and went to get the spare medicine box in the dormitory. Before he pushed the wheelchair to the collapse, Le Zhi had already taken off his boots and socks and sat on the collapse, consciously unbuttoned the three buttons on the top of his shirt, and pulled down the fabric on his right shoulder... . ..
Seeing this, Huo Du's Adam's apple rolled gently.
"Lezhi, can you write the word shame?"
Le Zhi pouted and said in his heart, "Don't you want it when I delivered it to your door?" Even urging. Emotional. Medicine is useless. Does it make a difference if I wear it or not
Of course, she didn't dare to say it.
Huo Du glanced at her, and began to untangle the cotton cloth on her wound and apply medicine to bandage it again.
After it was over, Huo Du packed the medicine box aside. Le Zhi suddenly thought of the wound that had been bandaged on her shoulder when she woke up in the morning. She thought that Huo Du had not returned to the house last night, probably Jing Xin helped her bandage it. But only then did he realize that the bandaging method was the same. Since she was injured, Huo Du has been taking care of her personally.
"It was also the medicine that His Highness gave me last night?" Le Zhi asked tentatively.
"It's not me." Huo Du didn't even lift his eyelids, his yin and yang angrily said, "Is it a ghost?"
Le Zhi burst out laughing, his tone blithe nonsense, "I see, Your Highness cares about me so much. Since I was injured, Your Highness must be worried? I can see that His Highness's face is haggard."
Huo Du was speechless, he held her shoulders and made her lie down, pulled the quilt to wrap her, "Prince Concubine's delusional disorder is really getting worse."
After he finished speaking, he picked up the white jade crutch beside him and prepared to put it on the medicine box to get up, but a slender hand grabbed his sleeve and he turned to look at her.
"His Royal Highness, when the wound on my shoulder is healed, we'll..." Le Zhi's eyes were firm, with a smile on his brows, "Let's consummate the house."
Afraid that he might feel reluctant, she added, "I would very much like to."
She could see that Huo Du was interested in her, but she didn't know how much. But she didn't want to see things go beyond her expectations. Although Huo Du wouldn't fall in love with her, but what if? If this lunatic really has his heart on her, it will be too serious...
It is said that Daqi men like the new and hate the old, and treat women, and they will soon be disgusted after they get them. After they are consummated, it probably won't be long before they become pure allies and maintain a safe distance from each other.
When she finished speaking, Huo Xu's eyes were burning but he didn't answer. After a while, he asked, "Lezhi, how old are you?"
Le Zhi was puzzled. Huo Du clearly knew her age, but she still answered obediently, "Sixteen."
"Sixteen..." Huo Du laughed, shook his head with disapproval, and then turned around to arrange the medicine box on his own.
Le Zhi's cheeks were red for a while, and then began to turn white again, and his eyes were slightly red. She turned her body to the inside of the bed and bit her lip—
It's so embarrassing that it seems to have been rejected again.
Okay, Huo Du probably just thought she was a very interesting person and had no interest in her body at all, so it seemed to be fine.
Not long after, Huo Du also collapsed on the bed. Fang Cai's embarrassment has not yet eased, and Le Zhi decided to turn his back to him and sleep like this for one night.
But the quilt on her body was suddenly lifted, her wrist was held, and with a slight pull, Huo Du hugged her from behind. Then she heard him speak, a little hoarse in his voice—
"Really think about it?"
