Chapter 176: Do You Think He Really Trusts You?

Chapter 176: Do You Think He Really Trusts You?

Shi didn’t expose Zhou Yu’er before he left.

Long also didn’t do anything to her these days.

The Shadow Guardians were watching her closely.

But she died! How did she die?

With a gloomy face, Long went to the mansion with the Shadow Guardian who told him the news.

Zhou was really dead and she looked rather miserable.

She died in her own room, covered in blood.

The Shadow Guardian who kept watching her in her room was also dead, but people outside didn’t hear any sound of fighting.

Zhou was still alive when she had lunch. She asked servants to bring food to her room, but unexpectedly, she and that Shadow Guardian died so soon!

Both of them were killed, which really angered Long!

The Shadow Guardian, who told Long the message, went to the mansion earlier and found Zhou was dead.

Zhou looked terrible, but there was only one wound on that Shadow Guardian’s neck.

That wound was very small and he didn’t bleed much.

It could be seen that the Shadow Guardian was killed by a single blow!

Long looked very bad.

There was also an imperial doctor in the room.

After examining Zhou’s body carefully, the imperial doctor said, “Your Majesty, there was a poisonous insect in Zhou Yu’er’s body and she was killed by it.”

Poisonous insect… Long took a look at the corpse indifferently.

Just then, something happened.

A little black insect flew out of Zhou’s mouth and went straight to Long!

Fortunately, Ying Qiu and Ying Feng could do great martial arts. They followed Long closely just to provide full protection for him!

Ying Qiu and Ying Feng moved at the same time.

The leader and deputy leader of the Shadow Guardians moved very fast in the face of danger.

Even though the black insect came out unexpectedly, it didn’t have a chance to get close to Long at all!

Ying Qiu and Ying Feng cooperated very well.

Ying Qiu directly slapped the insect to death and shattered its body with internal strength, while Ying Feng stood in front of Long and took him to the outside.

Ying Feng was worried whether the insect had some special smell that could poison people.

So he took Long out of the room. In this way, he wouldn’t need to worry that that insect could hurt Long in some unexpected way.

Long was not frightened by that. He just looked colder.

After getting rid of that insect, Ying Qiu also came out.

Long only said a few words. “Burn Zhou Yu’er’s body. Shadow Guardians… Give her a proper burial.”

“Yes.” Other Shadow Guardians in the courtyard went to do it immediately.

The imperial doctor in the room was overcome by fear.

He knew that if Long was attacked earlier, he wouldn’t end up well!

Long didn’t stay in the mansion for a long time.

After leaving there, he did not go back to the imperial palace directly, but walked on the street at will.

At this time, a man in blue sitting by the window on the second floor of a tavern attracted Long’s attention.

That man was about thirty years old. He was extremely handsome and also looked a little wicked.

When Long was looking around, he happened to see that man and was instinctively attracted by his physical charms.

Long didn’t expect that when he was looking at that man, that man opened his mouth and said a name.

“Shi Qingzhou.” Yes, it was what that man said!

He didn’t make a sound. Only his lips moved.

How could he know Shi? Long fixed his eyes on that man.

Then, that handsome and wicked man leisurely looked away when Long was staring at him seriously.

It seemed that it wasn’t he who said Shi’s name just now.

Long felt confused. Then, he went into the tavern.

Ying Feng and Ying Qiu followed him closely.

When Long reached the second floor, that man was still there. He smiled when he saw Long coming up.

But that smile was a little provocative and ironic, which was hard to understand.

Long didn’t know that man. He also asked the Shadow Guardians earlier, but no one knew him, either.

Long came to that man’s table.

That man looked over while Long sat down opposite to him.

“Who are you?” Long asked directly.

A faint sneer crossed that man’s face. “You dare to come here just with two guards? You’re really not afraid of death.”

Long looked serious and said, “That depends on who will die. I’m sure I’m not the one.”

“Oh?” That man looked at Long more sarcastically. “How can you be so confident? Just because of the two of them? They look quite powerful, but let me tell you, if I want to take your life, they won’t be able to stop me. Believe it or not.”

“If you really want to kill me, you would’ve done it when I was downstairs. You said that you’re powerful, but you didn’t do that. Now tell me who you are. What do you mean by saying that name?”

Long’s voice was cold when he said the last few words.

“You really care about that guy?” The handsome man still asked Long with sarcasm, but there was another layer of meaning.

“Of course I care about him,” Long said directly. He was not afraid to admit it.

“Haha.” That man laughed contemptuously. “If you really care, how could let him go out with another man?”

“What?” Long raised his eyebrows. “With another man? Who do you mean?”

The handsome man looked indifferent. “What do you think?”

Hearing his words, Long burst into laughter. “You mean… Liu Suifeng?”

The handsome man had a cruel and ruthless look on his face when he heard that name.

That man’s reaction was obvious, so Long saw it clearly and he felt something was strange.

Long stared at that man and then slowly said, “Do you have a feud with Liu Suifeng?”

“Of course not.” The handsome man smiled. “How could I have a feud with him? I like him so much.”

“Oh?” Long blinked. It seemed that that man’s words surprised him. Although that man said he liked Doctor Liu, Long could see from his eyes that he really wanted to kill that doctor.

Long was really curious about the relationship between this man and Doctor Liu.

Since that man knew Doctor Liu, it was quite normal that he also knew Shi.

However… it was a little strange that he looked so cruel when talking about Doctor Liu.

“You just said that if I care about him, I shouldn’t let him go out with another man. But… do you think something is going on between Liu Suifeng and Shi Qingzhou?”

“You’re so confident that Shi Qingzhou won’t have anything to do with Liu Suifeng?” That handsome man sneered. He was about thirty years old, but somehow, his reaction made him still look like a boy.

“Liu Suifeng is dissolute. He loves any man he meets. Shi Qingzhou is also his type. How can you be so sure that they don’t have an affair?”

Long became speechless. That man said those words coldly, but Long felt he was… being jealous.

“What’s more, although Liu Suifeng likes challenges, he hates troubles. Now he gets involved in the battle of the imperial court and stays with your man every day. Who would believe that there’s nothing going on between them?”

Long was sure that that man had gone wild with jealousy…

Long narrowed his eyes and smiled. “Who would believe that? Let me tell you, I believe that.”

“You…” The handsome man glared at Long.

Long smiled at him. “I trust him, because I love him.”

Hearing Long’s words, that handsome man looked terrible.

Long didn’t care about that man’s reaction. He just continued, “Only those who don’t have confidence in themselves would doubt the people they love.”

The handsome man became angrier, but it didn’t last long. Soon, he sneered.

“You trust him? You trust Shi Qingzhou, but he may not trust you. Do you know why he left?”

“What?” Long narrowed his eyes and said calmly, “He went to do business.”

“Yes, that’s business.” That man sneered again. “He’s going to die. Of course he needs to finish his business. He won’t be able to do anything after he dies.”

Long was stunned. Then, his eyes flashed with anger. “What did you say?”

“Didn’t you hear me?” That man laughed. “You really don’t know anything. How pathetic! He’s hidden everything from you, but you still said you trust him. You’re a laughing stock!”

Long’s face darkened. “What do you mean?”

“What do I mean? You don’t even know that Shi Qingzhou is being tortured by a poisonous insect and he’s going to die in half a month. Yet you’re still saying you trust him. Don’t you think you’re a laughing stock?”

Long was completely shocked. “Poisonous insect… He’ll die in half a month… What do you mean by that? Explain it to me!”

That man scoffed, and then said slowly, “The poisonous insect in his body is the strongest one in the world. It lives on human blood and regards the first person that feeds it as its master. In its master’s body, it’s poisonous, but also precious. It can protect its master from all kinds of poisons and poisonous insects in the world. But once it gets out of its master’s body and goes into another person’s body, the second person will be unable to control himself. He’ll gradually go crazy and kill all the people around him. He’ll lose his sanity day by day until the insect kills him in the end.”

Long was stiff. He thought of the time when Shi came back, he should be the angry one, but Shi said many hurtful words. That time, he apologized to Shi first and extricated them from the awkward position.

That handsome man looked at Long and continued, “If this poisonous insect is not suppressed by a skilled doctor, the patient will gradually go crazy. He’ll be unable to control himself at first and completely lose his mind in the end. It would just take one year. However, if the doctor doesn’t know much about that poisonous insect and uses some special means to control it, then the patient will live for one month in good condition. But after that, he’ll only have half a month to live. He will completely go crazy and be killed by the insect half a month later.”

Long’s body was very stiff and his fists were clenched.

That handsome man sneered again. “Do you want to know who that poor man is? Haha… That’s just your lover. You didn’t even know that he’s being tortured by that poisonous insect and it’s beyond remedy. Do you still think he trusts you?”

That handsome man said that with heavy sarcasm, which made Long’s heart beat violently.
