Chapter 198: Because I Like Shu Nuan (2)
However, the Qingyi master knew that the other party was high nobility. She didn’t dare to neglect his instructions. In the process of applying the medicine, she lessened the pressure behind the needle.
Shu Nuan didn’t know how to describe the pain that was akin to being skinned alive.
She heard Sheng Qianmo say a few words to the seal master, but she was too vexed to make them out. In the end, she fainted.
When Shu Nuan woke up, the moon had risen to prominence in the sky.
The cool fragrance of medicine hugged her body. Her nose wrinkled, as she didn’t seem to like it.
Shu Nuan sat up from the bed, groaning with pain. She looked down upon her outfit that was missing half the clothes. Her shoulder was wrapped in white gauze, and it was the source of the pain that spread in waves across her body.
Shu Nuan put on some more clothes, got out of bed, and pulled out a pair of shoes from a cabinet. She was about to head out when Sheng Qianmo walked in with a bowl of medicinal soup.
Sheng Qianmo said, “Go back and lie down.”
Shu Nuan glanced at him before sitting back down.
Sheng Qianmo handed over the bowl.
“Drink the medicine.”
Shu Nuan kept her mouth closed and didn’t move.
Sheng Qianmo added, “It’s a painkiller.”
Shu Nuan hesitated and opened her mouth. Enduring the bitter taste, she gulped down the medicine.
After she was done, Sheng Qianmo fed a soft candy to her and said, “Don’t bathe for a few days. Keep the gauze for ten days. It will reduce the swelling.”
Shu Nuan answered with a nasal sound, saying nothing.
“This Prince discovered that the poisoning was done by an agent of the Nanchao. I have submitted the proper evidence to my brother, the emperor. Soon, you will be cleared of all charges.” After a short pause, Sheng Qianmo reached out and touched her soft hair. “When you are ready, you can continue attending school.”
Shu Nuan was still quiet and unhappy.
“This Prince is at fault. I assure you that I will always believe you.”
Sheng Qianmo yearned to see her tender smile again, but she hadn’t spoiled him in a long time.
Sheng Qianmo gently took her little hand and covered it with his palm, not letting her slip away.
Shu Nuan pursed her mouth, stubborn as a child who didn’t know when to give up. Her voice was soft, as she said, “There is no future…here.”
She liked to cry in his arms, to rely on him. She liked being coquettish with him. She liked that he was tall and handsome, that he could do whatever he liked. But he was a general, so it had been useless to try.
It was Prince Sheng who had trampled on her wings.
So…
There was no future for them.
Shu Nuan was stubborn by nature.
Sheng Qianmo listened to her words clearly. He clenched her little hand tighter, very hard, but he didn’t know what else to do except to hold it.
He would rather that Shu Nuan be angry with him and vent all her discontent, but this time, she hadn’t had the strength in her to struggle from the beginning.
She’d told him again and again…
‘If it is broken, it will never be the same again.’
‘But you lied to me.’
‘There is no future.’
He couldn’t imagine something more crueler than saying such heartless words with such a soft voice.
