Shen Yuan hesitated to apply the medicine when he asked, and the wooden stick almost penetrated the soft flesh of his wound.

She didn't rush to reply to him first. After applying the last bit of plaster, she told him while tying it with a bandage: "Why are you asking? I have made it clear to you that it is no longer possible between us, and you don't need to do this." Test me."

She didn't cherish him when her whole heart and eyes were full of him. Now that she had made up her mind to pull away, it was as if he had just grown eyes to see her, and he frequently made this kind of attempt to stay that she found sarcastic and funny.

Her movement of putting on the strap-on was still gentle, but now Pei Zhaoxue could not move at all, and her heart felt like an ice cave.

After a while, he uttered a dry sentence: "I'm just, just curious. I wonder if you have someone else in your heart, how can you be better than me."

Obviously, when they first met, she expressed to him more than once that he fulfilled all her fantasies about her future husband.

At that time, she even said absurdly that she wanted to eat him and become one with him.

But at that time, he was still at a loss, and he didn't know how to accept her emotions that were hotter than fire. Now he finally understood a little bit, but he couldn't even step into the door of her heart.

Shen Yuan chuckled lightly, raised her eyes to look at the handsome jade face in front of her, and stopped her movements:

"How is he better than you? To be fair, you, Pei Ziyu, are impeccable in terms of appearance, talents, family status, and current identity. If there is someone stronger than you in this world, then it can only be It’s the emperor who outweighs you in terms of status.”

This statement was true, and Pei Zhaoxue was not conceited. He nodded in agreement.

"That being the case, that means I should still be the most suitable husband candidate in your eyes, right?"

He had heard a little bit about the standards for women in the capital city and even the entire Yan Dynasty to choose a husband, and most of them regarded him as the highest standard. He didn't know how many times he had heard it inadvertently just because he was envious of Shen Yuan for marrying such a good husband.

"That's not right." The girl shook her head, and while continuing to bandage him, she expressed the insights she had spent her whole life on, "Maybe it's Gongsun Linghua, maybe it's the emperor, or maybe it's in the eyes of any little girl passing by on the street. The most suitable candidate for a man, but he will definitely not be the one in my eyes."

"You are certainly good in some aspects, but to me, you cannot meet the standards of a husband at all. No matter how good you are, for me now, it is just like getting a sword that I don't take advantage of. I continue to rape you." Although you can keep dancing, you will eventually get bruises all over my body, and you will be broken and buried in my hands."

Shen Yuan tied the tied knot into a knot, and the cold wind blew in through the cracks in the window, blowing away the strands of hair on her forehead.

There was only a sense of relief and calmness in the watery eyes hidden below, which could only be seen after experiencing frost and snow. An invisible barrier was formed in front of her at this moment, preventing Pei Zhaoxue from getting closer.

"It's bandaged. It's getting late. If you want to stay overnight, just sleep in Pei Jinyan's room. He behaved like a monster again today. I asked him to stay in Xiaoyaofang where he skipped class and played all day. I guess he will be there tonight. Sleeping over there.”

Pei Zhaoxue watched her get up and wash her hands by the copper basin, her lowered brows and eyes gentle, as if she had just said the most ordinary words to him and had no impact on her at all.

The wound that had been treated with ointment was no longer so painful, but he still felt so painful that it felt like needles were pricking his heart and he couldn't breathe.

After leaving the pharmacy, Shen Yuan went to Cui Shao's place again.

Pei Zhaoxue suddenly came over, and he was treated like that by Pei Zhaoxue. He must be restless now, right?

This was indeed the case. Cui Shao half leaned on the couch and kept looking at the door.

It wasn't until he saw the begonia-colored silhouette approaching that the boulder pressing on his heart moved away.

"Girl, are you quarreling because of me? Why don't I leave here, lest Pei Zaifu embarrass you." Shen Yuan had heard Fang Xuelin say this to Pei Zhaoxue many times before, and knew that such words were usually just for To arouse someone's affection, you will only say it if you deliberately pretend to be good.

But that was Fang Xuelin, Cui Shao in front of me

Shen Yuan's gaze fell on his pale face, looking at the self-blame and annoyance in his eyes, and she shook her head in her heart.

How could he be like this? She must be overthinking it.

"No need, just rest and recuperate. Pei Zhaoxue and I didn't quarrel, he and I did."

She has told Shen Xuan and Xiang Fengliu that she wants to reconcile with Pei Zhaoxue, but has not told anyone else yet.

Cui Shao didn't need to tell him here, but seeing that he reacted greatly to this, she could only sigh and continue: "He and I are just a superficial couple now. If nothing happens, we will reconcile with him in half a year. It's okay." If we quarrel if necessary, we are not a real couple."

"You" Shen Yuan said and found that Cui Shao's expression was dull and he looked a little stupid for no reason.

"Cui Shao?"

She stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Cui Shao's eyes. Cui Shao finally came to his senses, but his heart still beat violently in his chest due to excitement and excitement.

He was so happy that the corners of his lips curled up unconsciously, revealing a sincere smile: "Girl, you are listening, then I'm relieved. I'm afraid it will affect the relationship between you."

If the couple is not really in love and will have to divorce sooner or later, that would be great!

Shen Yuan didn't think much, covered Cui Shao with the quilt and stood up: "Then you have a good rest. I have to be on duty tomorrow. It's getting late, so I have to go back and rest."

Seeing that Shen Yuan was about to walk out of the door, Cui Shao couldn't help but call her. When she looked sideways in confusion, he said anxiously: "Good night, sweet dreams."

His eyes were bright and he seemed to be eager to get a reply, which made Shen Yuan burst into laughter.

"You too, good night and sweet dreams."

The next day when she went to Honglu Temple, Shen Yuan was found by Yun Qianqiu as expected, and talked about yesterday's thrilling incident and how Pei Zhaoxue had helped her a lot.

"If it weren't for Pei Zaifu's help, I really don't know what to do."

Yun Qianqiu was still frightened and her face turned pale.

After saying that, she remembered some of the news she heard when she came, biting her chopsticks and asked Shen Yuan, did she leave Honglu Temple early yesterday?

"As for Pei Zaifu, did you ask him to help?"

Shen Yuan was still adding hot water to Yun Qianqiu.

After pouring a cup, he put the hot water cauldron upright and nodded: "Well, I can't just watch you jump into the fire pit. Where is Tubo? If you marry there, your life will not be good. What if? There is something wrong with Bian's husband, and you still need to remarry his brother, which is too cruel."

To put it nicely, it means being a princess in the past; to put it worse, it means becoming a plaything that can be passed around at any time.

Since Yun Qianqiu already has the title of Queen, why is there any need to suffer this kind of injustice again? (End of chapter)
