That kind of fear and pain could not be concealed at all, it was so overwhelming, as if countless light blades were touching her heart, twitching violently, and the pain was unbearable.
"Yu'er, why are you crying?" Gu Chengxuan looked down at her and asked softly.
Pei Yu couldn't help covering her face, crying and choking, "The medicine is too bitter..."
Gu Chengxuan was silent, watching her cry for a while, almost out of breath, then he stretched out his arms, picked her up slowly, put her on his lap and held her, his eyes were gentle and slightly lowered. With his eyes lowered, he gently wiped Pei Yu's tears and told her not to cry.
Pei Yu bit her lips and nodded tremblingly, trying hard to swallow back her tears, but she still felt uncomfortable.
Especially when she was forced to open her eyes and look at Gu Chengxuan, who was very close at hand. She raised her head and ran into his deep, dark eyes. He seemed to always be so calm and unhurried.
But... if Gu Chengxuan knew that not long ago, she took abortion pills and strangled their first child with her own hands, would Gu Chengxuan...
Before Pei Yu dared to think further, she felt Gu Chengxuan pinch the tip of her chin, rub it gently with his fingertips twice, and then said slowly and calmly: "Pei Yu, I said that I want to marry you, and you agreed. "
Gu Chengxuan pinched her chin with neither light nor heavy force. Pei Yu didn't feel much pain, but she didn't dare to look directly at him, so she just glanced at him and then slumped down like a frustrated little rabbit. With her eyelids closed, she could only look at his slender fingers holding the tip of her chin.
It seemed that he only spoke half of what he said, because soon he asked warmly, "Can you tell me, what are you trying to do?"
Pei Yu only felt a lot of pain in her heart, but she still tried to tell him: "I... I like the prince..."
When he said this, his lips were slightly opened and closed, and his breath was trembling unsteadily.
Obviously, he still couldn't recover from the extremely sad mood just now.
"There are many kinds of likes, Pei Yu, which one do you like?" Gu Chengxuan looked at her warmly and smiled lightly at her.
He wiped her tears gently with gentle movements, and never showed the slightest bit of ferocity towards her from beginning to end.
But Pei Yu couldn't answer his question, maybe because she felt too uncomfortable at the moment. She was still confused after listening to his words and couldn't answer immediately.
Gu Chengxuan stared at her quietly for a while, then suddenly let go of his hand and said softly: "Pei Yu, don't I have the right to know?"
Pei Yu looked at Gu Chengxuan in a daze with tears in his eyes, as if he had not yet realized the meaning of Gu Chengxuan's words.
"Or, in your eyes, it doesn't matter at all whether the king knows or not?"
Pei Yu's eyelashes trembled violently and she opened her mouth, wanting to explain, but her throat seemed to be pinched by something. The pain was unbearable and she couldn't utter a single word.
But even at this time, Gu Chengxuan still didn't want to make her get too excited. He knew that his eyes were faint and could not squeeze out a trace of pleasure, but he still reached out his hand and gently stroked the back of her neck. Said: "Pei Yu, I won't hold you accountable for anything, so you don't have to be afraid. However, I really want to know that you hate your child who is pregnant with me so much. On the first day you learned about it, you insisted on killing him." Got him?"
