Chapter 776: Green Plum Drunk (14)
Jiang Que was about to leave, and Cheng Hui was a little anxious.
But with the door tightly shut and the maid blocking his way to prevent him from disturbing anyone, Cheng Hui, despite his martial arts skills, could not force his way in, fearing that he would tarnish the reputation of the person in the house who did not want to see him.
Cheng Hui left in frustration.
Seeing that he had finally left, the little maid snorted coldly and trotted back with the hot roast chicken, saying happily, "Sister Wan'er."
The head maid, who had already opened the door and was waiting for her to come back, nodded and, just like when she was a child, reached out to touch the little maid's chubby face.
Her gaze fell on the direction of the bamboo forest where Cheng Hui had already left. Her eyes darkened and she took the little maid back to report.
...
Cheng Hui, who was afraid of tarnishing Jiang Que's reputation during the day, took advantage of the cover of night and used his best martial arts skills to sneak into Guanlan Garden and climb through the window to enter the room.
The little maid is on duty tonight. Unlike the big maid, she is not well-trained in martial arts and has sharp eyes and ears.
She was sleeping soundly at the door with her quilt in her arms, unaware that a thief had sneaked into the room to look for her master's scent.
Cheng Hui sneaked into the room but did nothing. He just sat on the small couch, looking at the person resting under the quilt on the bed in the moonlight outside the window, listening to his breathing. He was sleeping very uneasily.
They have slept together all these years and have never been separated.
Without him by her side, Zhao'er couldn't sleep well at all.
When they were young, they could sleep in the same bed. When they grew up, they slept in the same room. Zhao'er slept on the bed, and he would sleep on the floor or lean on the wider beams to protect others.
Zhao'er was angry today and she didn't let him meet her, so he could only sneak over at night.
Sure enough, his appearance, perhaps because of the familiar smell, made the person who was originally sleeping restlessly gradually breathe more calmly.
Cheng Hui also tidied his clothes with peace of mind and fell asleep on the small couch under the window. Jiang Que usually sat here to read and closed his eyes.
After sleeping for a long time, not only Jiang Que, but even he himself felt that something was missing when he slept without the other person, and his heart was empty.
I don’t know how long I slept. As the night deepened, the moonlight hanging high outside the window hid lazily behind the clouds. It only came out again after it had a good rest, casting a hazy sleepiness over the night.
After the silence, the stream outside the house was rolling.
The person on the bed suddenly opened his eyes.
As soon as he moved, Cheng Hui on the small couch woke up and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Not sensing any danger or the presence of a third person, Cheng Hui relaxed and felt Jiang Que approaching gently.
Step by step, he walked to the small couch, took off his shoes and got on the couch without saying anything.
On the couch that seemed particularly small after sleeping with two people, she kept leaning into his arms. As she squeezed, her lips unconsciously touched his neck, causing her body to stiffen and her heart to race.
But the people around him seemed to be sleepwalking. After finding someone familiar, he hugged him and rubbed against his arms, then found a comfortable position and continued to sleep.
Cheng Hui didn't know what he was nervous about.
How old is Zhao'er?
It's normal for a child to sleep with his brother in his arms.
Correct.
normal.
...
This night was just a chaotic mess for one person.
...
Cheng Hui left before dawn and no one noticed he had been there.
When the little maid woke up, Jiang Que was sitting on a small couch by the window in single clothes, holding a book. He was wearing a coat that did not belong to him. Cheng Hui had covered him with it last night because he was afraid he would be cold.
The little maid came in to pack up her things. Turning back, she saw Jiang Que still sitting on the small couch and asked weakly, "Your Highness, are we leaving yet?"
The person on the small couch was in a good mood today. Upon hearing this, he flipped through the book in his hand and said "hmm" softly.
The little maidservant smiled again: "Then I will pack my things."
Before I could meet him, I heard him say, "Come back in a few days."
"..."
...
Jiang Que said it would be a few days late, but one day late turned into several months late.
Cheng Hui has recently been learning the domineering boxing technique passed down from his father. He heard that it can improve internal strength after mastering it.
Jiang Que is old enough to detoxify. He has been practicing internal strength for so many years, just waiting for this day to cure Zhao'er.
Afraid of making mistakes, he continued to improve.
Cheng Hui also used this detoxification reason to calm Zhao'er down and stay with him in the leader's mansion for a few more months.
But once the poison is cured, he will definitely leave.
The underworld has never been his main battlefield.
Cheng Hui didn't want to selfishly detain him.
I can only work harder and harder to become the best in the world, follow Zhao'er, make him fearless of conspiracies and tricks, and be the sharpest knife in his hand.

This isn't like my last life.
In the end, his achievements surpassed his master's, and he was pierced through the heart by thousands of arrows.
Cheng Hui was angry: "Then I'd love to do that too!!"
If I were really pierced by thousands of arrows, I could only blame myself for not trying hard enough, disappointing Zhao'er, and making him suspect that I would threaten his kingdom.
A good and loyal dog will not cause his master such trouble.
If so, he should reflect on himself instead of blaming Emperor Zhao'er for his unpredictable mind.
