Chapter 114: Why Are You Different!

Shen Ninghua suddenly opened her eyes. Seeing the enlarged handsome face in front of her, a wave of anger surged in her heart and she suddenly pushed him away. “Chu Junyi, don’t push your luck!”

Because Shen Ninghua was rather angry and used much strength, Chu Junyi didn’t expect it and was pushed backwards. He leaned against the carriage wall and said, “Black-hearted girl, you are really ruthless.”

Shen Ninghua frowned and felt a burst of anger in her heart. “Your sister is still unconscious. Why don’t you go and raise money now?”

“No worry.” Chu Junyi leaned against the carriage wall in the posture that he formed after being pushed. He secretly sucked in a breath of cold air and unconsciously let out a muffled sound.

Shen Ninghua smelled a faint smell of blood. She suddenly raised her head to look at Chu Junyi. With the dim light in the carriage, she had not noticed it before, but now she realized that his face was very pale, and the strands of hair on his forehead were already wet with sweat.

“Chu Junyi, are you injured?”

“Yes…” Chu Junyi said. He tried to stand up, but felt warm liquid flowing down his back. He frowned. The wound in his back split open.

Shen Ninghua looked at him for a moment and finally sat down beside him gritting her teeth. She grabbed his arm and checked his pulse.

Feeling his pulse, Shen Ninghua suddenly widened her eyes. “The pulse is weak, the internal energy is disordered, the middle qi is damaged, and the vitality is insufficient…Are you trying to kill yourself?”

Chu Junyi leaned his head onto Shen Ninghua’s shoulder and closed his eyes tiredly.

After he arranged things in the Treasure Pavilion, he arrived near the imperial palace, but was intercepted by assassins with high martial arts skills. In order to protect those things from being destroyed, he could only fight desperately. Fortunately, he killed all of them. Otherwise, he would not be able to save the Xiao family.

Feeling the weight on her shoulder, Shen Ninghua’s eyes suddenly deepened. She turned around and looked at the pale face on her shoulder. She gritted her teeth fiercely and coldly instructed, “Qing Que, go home!”

Xia Jingqiu was already as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. After hearing that something had happened to the Xiao family, she wished she could immediately rush over to see her daughter. Nevertheless, since she could not enter the Xiao Mansion, she could only anxiously wait. Seeing Shen Ninghua’s carriage approaching, she hurriedly ran over.

“Ninghua, where’s Yingxue?”

Shen Ninghua got off the carriage and signaled for Qing Que to drive the carriage into the mansion. “Aunt, cousin is fine. She will be back in a while. She was scared today, so you need to comfort her.”

“Scared? Why would she be scared at the banquet?” Xia Jingqiu wiped her tears with her handkerchief. “Ninghua…”

Bi Zhu drove the carriage to the door and helped out Yang Yingxue whose face was pale. “Ma’am, Miss Yang is back.”

“Mother!” Seeing Xia Jingqiu, Yang Yingxue immediately cried as if she was made of tears. She had been spoiled by her parents since childhood, and had never experienced something like this. Today, she walked on the brink of life and death. It was good that she did not collapse directly.

“My poor Yingxue!”

Looking at the mother and daughter holding each other and crying aloud, Shen Ninghua turned around and signaled Bai Ruo behind her.

Bai Ruo and Bi Zhu hurriedly stepped forward to support the two of them.

“Ma’am, Miss Yang was frightened. Take her back to rest now. She just came out of the Palace, and it’s not appropriate for you to cry at the door. If someone misunderstands the situation, I’m afraid…”

Xia Jingqiu trembled and quickly stopped her tears. “Yes, yes. Yingxue, quickly come in.”

Yang Yingxue was scared out of her wits by Xiao Jingran and Baili Qingcang’s auras. When she heard the word “Palace”, she trembled and hurriedly followed Xia Jingqiu to Cuizhu Pavilion.

Shen Ninghua said, “Bi Zhu, send someone to take care of aunt and cousin. Bai Ruo, follow me to Ruixi Courtyard.”

Chu Junyi fainted on her carriage. Shen Ninghua could only ask Liu Yun to carry him into the mansion.

Qing Que was guarding at the entrance of Ruixi Courtyard. “Miss, he is left in your room.”

“Alright.” There were many spies in her mansion, and with Xia Jingqiu and Yang Yingxue around, the safest way was to leave him in her courtyard. “Bai Ruo, go get some hot water. Just say that I want to take a bath.”

“Yes, Miss.”

In the room, Chu Junyi was lying on the bed with dark-colored stains on his clothes. Shen Ninghua stepped forward and touched it. Her fingers were immediately stained with blood. His clothes were black, and no one noticed that blood had seeped out.

Bai Ruo was also shocked and hurriedly handed over a handkerchief. Shen Ninghua shook her head and took a pair of scissors from the side. She directly cut open the clothes on Chu Junyi’s back, and found that his undergarment was already stuck to his skin and flesh, so she simply asked Liu Yun to take off the clothes on his upper body.

When Liu Yun took off his undergarment, the wound was stretched and blood continuously flowed out. Shen Ninghua asked Liu Yun to bring in the water, poured the anti-swelling and hemostatic powder into it, and directly put Chu Junyi in the water to clean him up.

Very quickly, a bucket of clean water was dyed bloody red. Bai Ruo’s face turned pale and she couldn’t help but retch twice.

“Bring the medicine over. You can go out first.”

Bai Ruo hurriedly said, “Miss, I can do it.”

“Go out!” Shen Ninghua frowned.

“Yes.”

The wounds on Chu Junyi’s back were very long, from his shoulder blade to the waist. White bones could be seen in two of the wounds. Shen Ninghua directly took out her specially made Golden Healing Medicine and poured the entire bottle of medicine onto the wounds.

“Ouch…” The pain caused Chu Junyi to groan and he couldn’t help but struggle. Shen Ninghua hurriedly pressed down his arms, only to discover that although he was unconscious, his strength was exceptionally great. She could not stop him from struggling at all.

Seeing that the wounds that had just stopped bleeding were going to bleed again, Shen Ninghua was angry. She pressed one hand on Chu Junyi’s back and frowned as she shouted in a low voice, “Don’t move!”

Maybe Chu Junyi really heard it. He actually stopped struggling.

Shen Ninghua heaved a sigh of relief. She took out a clean white cloth from the side and bandaged his wounds. Then, she took out a pill and fed it to him.

Feeling that his pulse was gradually stabilizing, Shen Ninghua heaved a sigh of relief. She rubbed her sour arm and glared fiercely at the unconscious person on the bed. “I saved your life again. I’ll charge the 5,000 taels of gold to your account. Hmph.”

After instructing Bai Ruo and Bi Zhu to guard the door, Shen Ninghua went to the side room to change her clothes.

Hong Ling brought some food over and said, “Miss, have some food first.”

Shen Ninghua nodded. Today was indeed eventful. Just as she sat down and had two mouthful of food, Bai Ruo ran over and said, “Miss, Master Chu is awake.”

“So fast?”

Shen Ninghua came to the room and saw that Chu Junyi and Liu Yun were fighting with each other. Although Chu Junyi had injuries on his back, his moves were exceptionally fierce, even disregarding the wounds on his back that had broken apart again.

Shen Ninghua’s face darkened. “Stop! What are you doing?”

Liu Yun dodged Chu Junyi’s sharp attack and stood still in the corner.

Chu Junyi gasped for breath. His face was pale but his eyes were as sharp as swords.

Shen Ninghua frowned at him. “What’s wrong? Have you had enough of living? Don’t think that you can default on the gold you owe me if you’re dead.”

“Is he your subordinate?” Chu Junyi narrowed his eyes and stared at Liu Yun.

Shen Ninghua didn’t want to answer, but seeing he pursed his lips and insisted on an answer, she frowned and said, “Yes. He is Xuanlin’s martial arts master.”

“If he is responsible for teaching Shen Xuanlin, why did he appear in your room?” He struggled to wake up and thought that he would see Ninghua, but saw Liu Yun standing beside his bed at first glance. This person had high martial arts skills and was able to enter Shen Ninghua’s room. If he hadn’t used up too much internal energy earlier, he would have definitely killed this person.

Shen Ninghua’s heart was filled with anger and amusement. She waved for Liu Yun and Bai Ruo to retreat and sat down by the side. “What’s wrong with him appearing in the room? Master Chu, you care too much.”

“What’s wrong? This is your boudoir. Do you want your reputation ruined by letting a male outsider show up here?”

Shen Ninghua glanced at him and said, “He is an outsider, but aren’t you?”

“How can I be the same?”

“Why are you different?”

After being carefully applied with medicine, the wounds on his back did not hurt much. Chu Junyi lay on his stomach on Shen Ninghua’s bed. He pulled the pillow and stuffed it under his body, and said roguishly, “Since we’re in this kind of relationship now, what do you think it is that makes me different?”

“This kind of relationship? You and I are just the creditor and the debtor. Do you think there’s anything else?”

Chu Junyi pulled the quilt from the side and raised his eyebrows. “You took off my clothes, and I slept in your bed. Is there any other relationship that is more intimate than ours?”

Shen Ninghua lowered her eyes and asked with a sneer, “What about your sister Huanxi?”

Chu Junyi paused and instantly fell silent.

Shen Ninghua’s heart sank, and she suddenly sneered. She stood up and walked out. “Since you’re awake, then think of a way to go back. It’s not convenient for me to keep you here to recover.”

“Ninghua!” Chu Junyi called out to her, “Xiao Huanxi is my sister. This will never change.”

Shen Ninghua stopped and said, “There is nothing in this world that will never change.” The evergreen love would also wither, let alone the hearts of people.

Feeling the decisive aura coming from Shen Ninghua, Chu Junyi’s heart suddenly ached. He had an instinct that if he couldn’t make Shen Ninghua believe him today, he would lose her forever! If he missed the girl in front of him, where would he find another person who could capture his heart and soul like this?

“Ninghua, you are my sweetheart, and the Xiao family has nurtured me. Today, you are enemies. It is wrong for me to choose either side. The only way is to stop you two from opposing each other.”

Shen Ninghua suddenly turned around and said, “The one who wants to confront the Xiao family is not me, but your sister Xiao Huanxi. If I didn’t fight back today, I would be accused of being malicious and murdering my sister! Xiao Huanxi wants to ruin my reputation. Do you want me to meekly accept whatever she has done to me?”

“Ninghua, that’s not what I mean.” Looking at the desolation in Shen Ninghua’s eyes, Chu Junyi felt a sudden pain in his heart. Despite his efforts, he made her sad.

“Then what do you mean?”

“The empress might have changed the poison that Xiao Huanxi took today. If she died, my foster father Xiao Jingran must be very sad, and he might even use the power of the family to investigate the cause of her death. In this way, the peace of the Xiao family would be completely broken. I don’t beg you to forgive me or compromise. I just beg you to trust me and leave this matter for me to handle. ”

“Leave this matter for you to handle? Then I’d like to hear what your so-called way of handling!”
