Chapter 131: How Can I Keep You
Feeling Bai Aoxue’s feeble arm that hung down, Jun Yeyan let go of his hand and held Bai Aoxue in his arms. His body shook violently.
Some part of the clothes at his shoulder was wet with a bloody rust smell.
Jun Yeyan wished he had lost his sense of smell at that moment. At least he didn’t need to smell it.
“Xue… I can’t lose you…”
“Xue… I have nothing but you, only you… ”
“How can I keep you…”
His sad and desperate tone was like the sound of a solo cello which was terribly lonely and coldly desperate.
Tightening his arms, Jun Yeyan was afraid that Bai Aoxue would leave suddenly.
But now, Bai Aoxue felt drowsy because of the excessive blood loss. She seemed to be half asleep and half awake. In a trance, she heard the roar of Jun Yeyan like a trapped animal that was desperate and helpless.
She wanted to raise her hand and touched his face. She wanted to do it for a long time but had not put into action. He was a man, but his skin was tenderer than hers, which made her unhappy.
Now, she finally had courage, but her hands were as heavy as lead. She didn’t have any strength at all, and she even wanted to close her heavy eyelids.
She really wanted to fall asleep forever because she was really tired.
“Xue, don’t leave me.” Said Jun Yeyan. He sobbed, still maintaining that pose. His voice was hoarse and broken, which shocked the listeners.
Jun Yeyan suddenly felt that the most important part of his heart was gradually breaking away.
“Ah!!” His angry roar resounded through the sky and shook the earth.
His ink hair was moving without wind. Gusts of wind whistled over, which made his clothes rustled in the wind. His majestic aura now seemed so sad. Even Zhao, who was beside him, was shaken away and flew out upside down, looking at the figure in the wind unbelievably.
Watching Jun Yeyan’s crazy movements, Zhao was frightened and worried at the same time. Master’s behaviors would hurt Princess in the end!
“Master! Please calm down! Now the most important thing is to save Princess! She still has breath now! Don’t be impulsive, master. You will hurt Princess if you keep doing this!” Zhao couldn’t get close to Jun Yeyan, so he had to shout behind the strong wind.
He just hoped Jun Yeyan could hear him.
The strong wind gradually had the tendency of calming down. The figure in the strong wind was stunned, but he still didn’t plan to let go of Bai Aoxue.
“Yes. My Xue must be alive!” Jun Yeyan murmured as if he were talking to himself.
When Zhao heard that, he immediately summoned an intact carriage and jumped to the original position of the coachman, driving the carriage quickly to Jun Yeyan’s side.
“Master, let’s return to town first and find a doctor to stop the bleeding for Princess!” Jun Yeyan suddenly turned to look at Zhao. His dark eyes were fascinating and deep like the endless abyss!
“Zhao, send out a message immediately to let Zi Yuanyue come to see me. I only give her half a day. My Xue can’t wait too long.” Jun Yeyan commanded in a low and hoarse voice.
After listening to Jun Yeyan’s words, Zhao didn’t say anything. He took out the connecting signal and sent it to the sky. “Bang.” The purple light suddenly disappeared.
By chance, she, who happened to be in the capital, saw it. She picked up her beautiful eyebrows in surprise, leisurely putting away all kinds of silver needles on the table. She stood up, heading towards 5th Prince’s mansion.
Jun Yeyan carefully held Bai Aoxue and put her in the carriage. His movements were gentle since he was afraid of hurting her.
Bai Aoxue knitted her delicate eyebrows. Her cheeks were pale and had no color on them. The blood overflowing from her mouth had dried up and coagulated into scabs, which hurt Jun Yeyan deeply.
There was a sword in her chest. It went straight into her chest and penetrated her petite body.
The blood that originally flowed wantonly had been stopped by Jun Yeyan with his internal force, but Jun Yeyan still felt the passing of life.
His heart was filled with fear, which he hadn’t tasted for many years. It hurt deeply.
Zhao carefully drove the carriage as fast as possible but not make it jolting.
“Zhao, hurry up.” The anxious voice of Jun Yeyan came from the carriage.
“Yes, master.” He accelerated the speed again, and his sweat fell when he wielded the whip.
“Zhao, haven’t we arrived yet?” It didn’t take too long until Jun Yeyan’s voice came again.
He wiped his cold sweat on his forehead and said: “Master, in a minute. I have seen the gate.”
After Jun Yeyan listened to Zhao’s words, he was relieved a lot, but when he saw Bai Aoxue’s knitted eyebrows and her pale face, he had an attack of acute chest pain.
“I said that I would protect her. I said that she wasn’t allowed to get hurt. Why it was me who hurt her in the end?”
“Is the curse right? Is it true that I will never be loved? Is it true that the closer I get to someone and the nicer I want to be to her, the more I will hurt her?”
Jun Yeyan asked himself, but he didn’t know who could answer his questions.
Seeing that it was the carriage that just showed up, the soldiers guarding the capital let it go without obstruction.
Zhao drove the carriage back to 5th Prince’s mansion. He didn’t dare to delay a minute at all.
At that time, Zi Yuanyue, who had received information, had been waiting for a long time in 5th Prince’s mansion. Of course, she had entered from the back door, and escaped Jun Wuhen’ snitch.
Now she sat at the stone table outside the bamboo yard, tasting tea and waiting for her master.
Master only sent her messages when he needed her. Only when master was attacked by poisons, the demon factors in his body needed to be controlled could she look at the shadowy figure across the complicated bed curtains. She was known as a famous doctor in the Great Continent, saving countless people and killing countless people.
No one knew that the master behind her was the ugly prince of Chengxi Dynasty. Most of them shrugged off people’s comments on Jun Yeyan with a laugh. After all, life was the combination of truth and falsehood.
From the back door of 5th Prince’s mansion, being covered by Zhao and several attendants, Jun Yeyan took Bai Aoxue out of the carriage. His movements were as gentle as fearing that Bai Aoxue would break once she was touched.
“Is Zi Yuanyue here?” Jun Yeyan asked in a deep voice. Everyone could feel the anxiety in his voice.
“Responding to Your Highness, Miss Yuanyue has been waiting in the bamboo yard for a long time.” One of the attendants replied respectfully, his forehead coming out in a cold sweat. Jun Yeyan’s fierce aura made them dare not look up at all.
“Xue’s yard must have Jun Wuhen’s snitch. Now let’s go to the bamboo yard.” Jun Yeyan commanded slightly.
No matter when, his momentum was always calm with endless majesty, which made people dare not to resist at all.
“Got it.” Several attendants replied earnestly.
Jun Yeyan tipped Zhao a wink, and then he walked on the quiet and inconspicuous path with Bai Aoxue in his arms, heading directly towards the bamboo yard.
“Xue, hold on. I can save you. Don’t think about leaving me! Don’t try to leave me!” Jun Yeyan put his forehead against that of Bai Aoxue and said earnestly.
“Don’t leave me alone…”
His sigh and prayer stunned Bai Aoxue who was in a trance. Although this movement was very weak, Jun Yeyan still felt it.
No matter what, he would not let go, because she was the first one to hold his hand!
She provoked him first. She made him feel the things he once sniffed at. Now did she want to leave after he was flipped?! It was impossible. He wouldn’t let go!
Thinking of this, Jun Yeyan couldn’t help tightening his arms, but he didn’t know that his strength at the moment made Bai Aoxue uncomfortable.
“Hum…” She groaned with pain, but she did not open her eyes.
Jun Yeyan was shocked when he heard Bai Aoxue’s voice. Looking down at Bai Aoxue who knitted her beautiful eyebrows, he knew that he overexerted himself just now. He quickly loosened his grip.
“Xue, does it hurt? Is it painful when I hurt you?” Looking at Bai Aoxue’s pale face, he felt a gnawing pain from his heart.
He murmured. People didn’t know whether he was asking Bai Aoxue or himself.
Before entering the bamboo yard, several men walked towards him. Seeing Jun Yeyan’s expression at the moment and Bai Aoxue who was in his arms, they looked at each other in shock.
“Where is Zi Yuanyue? Let her come to the bamboo cabin,” Said Zhao. Looking at those people, Zhao immediately asked. He was afraid that their approach would annoy Jun Yeyan.
When those people heard that, they knew that things were not good, and it was not the time to further enquire, so they went to the bamboo forest to invite Zi Yuanyue.
On the other side, Jun Yeyan entered the bamboo cabin, sitting beside the bed and holding Bai Aoxue tightly. He was afraid that she would disappear in a blink of an eye.
This was the scene that Zi Yuanyue saw when she stepped into the bamboo cabin.
The man, who used to be majestic and powerful, was now helpless. His fingertips were white, and his lips that compressed were bloodless.
He even didn’t notice her arrival, just looking at the woman in his arms.
There were guilt, love, and determination in his eyes.
Zhao told Zi Yuanyue: “The woman in master’s arms is the mistress. No matter what happens today, you must save her. If not, you know what master will do.”
After that, Zhao stopped looking at Zi Yuanyue. He said respectfully towards Jun Yeyan: “Master, Zi Yuanyue is here.”
Jun Yeyan slowly raised his head. His thin lips were bloodless. His eyes were not indifference like he used to be, but they were as sharp as ever.
When Zi Yuanyue was just about to salute, she was stopped by Jun Yeyan.
“Let’s dispense with it. Come here and see Xue. Zhao, you can leave now.”
After listening to Jun Yeyan’s words, Zhao bowed and left, and he also closed the door.
Zi Yuanyue didn’t dare to stop. Although she was confused, she, who was smart, knew that it was best not to ask anything at this moment and just did her part.
“Master, hold mistress tightly. Don’t touch the sword or shake.” Zi Yuanyue deserved to be called as a well-known doctor in the world. No matter where she was and who was around her, she would get into her character rapidly.
Raising his hand, Jun Yeyan gently touched Bai Aoxue’s forehead to wipe off her sweat.
He did so as usual, while he shocked Zi Yuanyue.
Zi Yuanyue took out the small scissors that she carried with her, cutting Bai Aoxue’s clothes that had been soaked in blood and listening to Bai Aoxue’s heartbeat.
She knitted her beautiful eyebrow tightly as if she was thinking about how to deal with Bai Aoxue’s injury.
“How is it?” After a long time, Jun Yeyan’s hoarse voice sounded, and he was very worried.
Zi Yuanyue dared not to waste time. She explained carefully: “I don’t know who hurt mistress, but he must mean to kill her. Originally, he wanted to directly penetrate her heart, but I don’t know why he missed half an inch.”
After Jun Yeyan listened to Zi Yuanyue’s words, his expression didn’t change too much, but his fingertips were terribly white.
“Can you save Xue?” Jun Yeyan looked up at Zi Yuanyue without blinking. His eyes were fierce.
Zi Yuanyue was stunned by Jun Yeyan’s shocking gaze. A storm was raised in her heart. At the moment, she knew that if she said “she can’t”, Jun Yeyan would kill her without hesitation!
This man, whom she only saw once on a high platform, was sacred and inviolable. He was indifferent, merciless, secretive and unrestrained, which made people yearn for.
Now she could be so close to him, which was beyond her wildest dreams.
What shocked her more was that the man who had gone through many hardships on the altar was finally pulled down by others. Now she found that he was not cold-blooded or indifferent. His tenderness was only given to one person.
Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Zi Yuanyue looked at Jun Yeyan’s eyes indirectly and said: “I can!”
