“My clansmen?” Mei Kai Ye sighed heavily. Heaven wants to destroy her, those traitors who would sell out their own…
“This drug will only make you lose your power for a day, but even when you regain your strength,” he raised his hand, revealing a jade-like wrist with an identical bracelet, “you will never be able to act against me again.”
“Kai Ye,” Fei Zuo looked at Mei Kai Ye lying limply on the ground and suddenly called softly, “If you’re done playing, it’s time to go home.”
“What do you mean?” Her body felt like it was filled with lead, and even moving a finger seemed to require a thousand-pound effort.
2:51 AM
If a non-left wants to do something to her, she would have no way to resist. Fortunately, non-left has been behaving like a gentleman, only hugging her without any excessive actions.
Now they are dining in a small restaurant, non-left smiling and watching her eat. He misses the empress dowager’s palace meals. If she wants to escape without touching non-left, her only option might be—using a sedative?
Mei Kaiye’s eyes rolled, weakly saying, “Non-left, I think I might have caught a cold.”
“Oh?”
“I want to see a doctor.”
“No need,” non-left continued eating, “There’s cold medicine in the carriage.”
Mei Kaiye continued eating. After a while, she suddenly clutched her stomach, “Non-left, my stomach hurts! Ouch, I need to see a doctor.”
Non-left’s expression remained unchanged. “There’s stomach medicine in the carriage.”
“But, but,” Mei Kaiye looked embarrassed, closing her eyes and whispering, “I’m… in pain. It’s very painful every month.”
“Oh!” Non-left nodded.
“I’ll go see a doctor,” Mei Kaiye said happily.
“Okay.”
“I’ll be back soon.”
“Wait,” non-left called her, “This prince will accompany you.”
“…” Mei Kaiye looked awkward, forcing herself to blush, “But, that, well…”
“You are this prince’s wife.”
From the window, one could see the waning crescent moon, pure and cold, its light pouring down quietly. She closed her eyes, pressing her cheek to the ground.
A light breathing sound came from her ear, and Mei Kaiye opened her eyes to see Dugu Ming.
