Chapter 22

Tang Xia took a long sigh and the bottom of eyes was clear.

“He’s really an arrogant monster. Just go as I said, but even fail my reputation.” Tang Xia whispered. She remembered Chu Tiankuo’s aggressiveness, which made her angry again.

“Somebody help! Grab the assassin! Grab the assassin!” Tang Xia found a quilt to cover her shoulders. Lines of lifeguards walked in from the embossed door. There was a pool of blood under Helian Jue’s head. They instantly understood what happened over there.

“The assassin is a eunuch. He just interrupted us when I stayed with the emperor.” Tang Xia did not intend finishing her words and added something juicy, “Hum, hum, I’m so terrified. I will hit your breasts with my little fists.”

At the end of her words, she could not help shuddering.

[Fans] Forget Love Potion: Sh*t! Trap your teammate so professionally!

[Fans] Teddy Professor: Anchor, your fists hit me so heavily!

[Fans] Charles: I feel painful on my chest… You are the No. one deceptive anchor in the world…

[Fans] Pink Doll Dress: It’s my favor. Hahaha (Smile turns sick)

The lifeguards received her order, retreating out with a bow.

At this moment, Helian Jue who was lying on the ground gradually woke up. Tang Xia was stunned but still held him up.

Anyway, she had to continue her mission.

Helian Jue held his head. “What happened?”

Tang Xia could not get rid of this good opportunity to gain a good expression from him. She rolled up her long sleeves with water-stained yarn and kneeled on the ground immediately.

At this time, showing your loyalty must be a bonus!

“Your Majesty, when we were going to do something, an assassin came in. I try my best efforts but just save your life. I ask you, my lord, to punish me.”

Tang Xia showed out the figure of a Virgin Mary. Her eyes were full of tears at once. It could be said that her behaviors had reached the top level of affectation.

Helian Jue frowned tiredly. He just remembered that he was going to have sexual intercourse with Tang Xia, but Chu Tiankuo’s hitting on his head with a stick made him forget Tang Xia’s previous resistance. In the end, he only slightly nodded his head.

“What about the assassin?”

“It’s all of my faults, but he’s gone… The lifeguards are searching for him.” Tang Xia’s eyelashes were trembling and tried her best to pretend to cry.

“It’s hard for you, Yue Ji.” Helian Jue held Tang Xia up warmly. Tang Xia’s face was covered with tears. Her absorbing appearance made Helian Jue fascinated.

Only a few days he had not seen her, she had such earth-shattering changes.

She was more charming than Lengmei indeed.

Tang Xia’s face was stiff when Helian Jue touched her. He had such a handsome appearance, but she really resisted being touched by him.

“Your Majesty, you just lost quite a lot of blood. Let me make you some blood-enriching food to warm your body up.” Then, she planned to leave.

Helian Jue’s eyes turned dark. He pulled Tang Xia into his arms and lifted her chin with one of his hand. “Yue Ji, you don’t have to worry about me.”

The blood on Helian Jue’s head had not been stopped, flowing to his ears and drawing an enchanting arc. His face was a bit evil, which had little difference from Chu Tiankuo’s.

Helian Jue closed his eyes and moved his lips towards Tang Xia.

the embossed Tang Xia bit her lips, but the announcement coming from the outside of door just stopped Helian Jue’s action.

“Your Majesty, we have arrested the assassin and put him into the dark prison.”

Helian Jue’s eyes restored clearly and held Tang Xia’s hands. “Go with me to see him.”

[Fans] Butterfly Love: What? Mr. Chu has been arrested?

[Guest] Raising Goldfish in the Condom: upstairs +1

[Visitor] Come to Eat Melon: I heard that the boss of the last world time-travels to here?

[Fans] Mei Chaofeng: …

[Fans] Are You Surprising: …

Tang Xia followed by Helian Jue numbly. The words of lifeguard leader repeated in her mind.

The assassin was arrested.

Chu Tiankuo was arrested.

The dark prison was in a haze and there were plenty of mouses playing on the ground. Tang Xia was praying in her mind somehow.

She was praying that the one arrested was not Chu Tiankuo.

“My love, why are you so nervous?” Helian Jue said slightly. Tang Xia glanced at her but could not tell his mood.

She smoothed the hair on her forehead, pretending to be calm. “It’s my first time for me to the dark prison. I must be a little bit nervous. And I’m also worried this assassin would hurt you.”

Helian Jue was stunned and measured her from her head to toes. Then, he turned away.

“I will protect you.”

Tang Xia lowered her body, following two lines of lifeguards. When they got to the deep side of the dark prison, Tang Xia noticed a bloody smell. It was dark in the prison. She could only figure out the situation when they lit the candles.

Chu Tiankuo wore a blue robe and his blood dyed his neckline, melting into the darkness.

The complicated pattern on his robe huddled together. Tang Xia could not hold her expression. She could not tell how many injuries he had suffered.

“Your Majesty.” A lifeguard beside Chu Tiankuo was holding a rattan whip and bowed to Helian Jue. The blood on the whip did not dry, dripping on the ground and causing a sound.

“Continue.” Helian Jue’s face was expressionless and his words were exceptionally cool.

Tang Xia’s eyesights fell on Chu Tiankuo. He lowered his head, his lips sipped into a line, while his foreheads twisted.

For a while, he lifted his eyes and glanced at Tang Xia in front of him. He wore a slight smile.

The lifeguard received Helian Jue’s order, waving the rattan whip. The whip slammed into Chu Tiankuo’s flesh and was pulled out from Chu Tiankuo’s body.

Tang Xia’s heart was trembling with it.

“Psst—psst—”

Chu Tiankuo was sweating and his face paled a bit, but his smile did not change.

Helian Jue had no expression on his face and the fire had deepened the coldness.

It was just because Tang Xia’s reluctance caused him unhappy.

The lifeguard did not dare to hesitate and waved his whip for a few times. When he noticed that Chu Tiankuo still had no response, he bowed to Helian Jue and picked up the iron bucket in the corner to pour on Chu Tiankuo’s body.

There was a lightly salty smell in the air.

[Fans] Gypsophila: It’s so achy… Isn’t it a romantic story? Why does the plot so painful!

[Fans] I Don’t Burden This Fault: System, do not abuse Mr. Chu, please…

[Fans] Mark Twain: Ah… I used to like Helian Jue so much… I hate him now. I want to curse him!

Tang Xia turned her head back, covering the tears in her eyes.

“Are you tired, my love?” Helian Jue held her shoulder with one hand. His voice was very soft, but the strength of his hand seemed to crush her shoulder.

Tang Xia tried to get rid of him for a few times, but finally, she could only wear a smile. “How could I feel tired when you accompany me. However, I have never seen such a bloody scene, so I would inevitably be overwhelmed.”

“So you should take a rest with me, my love.” Helian Jue smiled and took her to the exit.

After a few steps, he stopped. “Go on. Just leave him alive.”

Tang Xia had no time to think and was brought out numbly by Helian Jue.

The glare outside made Tang Xia squinted her eyes. She bit her lips tightly and did not want Helian Jue to see any flaws.

“Your Majesty, do you want to go to my palace to have a rest?”

Helian Jue glared at her and seemed to think about something. Finally, he moved his eyes away and behaved as usual.

“I see you are so tired. I don’t like to bother you today. You could have a good rest.”

After his words, I took a few steps. “Next time when I see you, I hope you can be alive and active.”

Tang Xia relaxed and watched Helian Jue’s departure. Then, she turned to the dark prison again.

Chu Tiankuo… must be suffering…

Tang Xia was worried and returned to her palace. She left Lyuyou out, squatting at the window and thinking for a while.

[Fans] Oh My God: Anchor, don’t be upset…

[Visitor] Nongfu Spring Is a Little Sweet: Why does Helian Jue ask our anchor to be active?

[Visitors] Shout When Seeing Something Unfair: Upstairs, your brain circuit is slightly strange…

Tang Xia felt dry and coarse in her eyes, leaving half of the yarn sleeves outside the window, while the breeze was blowing it up.

It was Light and dreamy.

It was similar to the relationship between Chu Tiankuo and her. They seemed to be nothing related, but came across again.

“Your Grace, the emperor asked me to make a cup of scented tea for you.” Lyuyou opened the door and stepped in with a teacup in her hands. She moved to Tang Xia’s back and handed the porcelain white cup to her.

Tang Xia took the teacup and smelled the refreshing fragrance. She asked with no intention, “What’s this flower? The fragrance is fantastic.”

“Your Grace, it’s the forget-me-not.” Lyuyou’s eyes squinted like crescents. “The emperor still remembers you. Forget me not. Forget me not. I don’t know the emperor means that he could not forget you or hopes you do not forget him.”

Tang Xia blew the floating foam on the tea and took a sip.

[Visitor] Audience with Walkman: Don’t be upset, anchor! Punish him! Pour the tea to him!

[Fans] Gangnam Style: Hey man, Lyuyou thinks that it’s not her mistake.

[Visitor] Audience with Walkman: I mean Helian Jue. Even an audience like me cannot bear his behaviors!

[Fans] Little Glutinous Rice: Hum, hum, I felt sorry for our anchor, and Mr. Chu Tiankuo. Praying for the system, don’t abuse them.

Tang Xia was worried and put down the teacup, returning to the dark prison.

She was more familiar with the road to the dark prison for the second time, following the light at distance.

However, there was no trace of a person on the wooden frame, but bloody smell full the room.

Tang Xia stopped the lifeguard whose check was with some blood. “Where is the assassin?”

Finding Yue Ji, the lifeguard dared not ignore her. “Your Majesty, the assassin is dead.”

Tang Xia’s eyes were trembling and felt that her heart was pinched by a big hand.

“How could he die? Didn’t the emperor ask you to leave him a life?”

Finding she was furious, the lifeguard kneeled with one leg at once. “Your Majesty, after a while when you leave, the emperor ordered me to pull off his skin and tendons. This… is his dead body.”

The lifeguard uncovered the black cloth, revealing a skin-peeled body.

Tang Xia couldn’t help tumbling in the stomach. She tried her best to force her tears back, turning around and trembling.

The lifeguard followed her. He thought for a while in his mind, but only said a few words, “Your Majesty, restrain your grief, please.”

Tang Xia tidied her sleeves. “I’m good.”

Of course, she was good. She had to be good.

Chu Tiankuo was just a bug formed by the mistake of the previous world. She had her own mission and needed to conquer Helian Jue. She had to fight against the emperor’s lover and girls like Virgin Mary.

How could she be so sad because of Chu Tiankuo, a past-style data?

Tang Xia faced the sunshine and felt the game’s authenticity for the first time.

No, it should be the second time.

The other was the day when Chu Tiankuo had a car accident.

Chu Tiankuo’s cold eyes seemed to arrogantly stare at her. He would call her as Washboard and said she did not know his mind to her.

It was too authentic to figure out whether it was true or not.

[Fans] Mario: Anchor… seems to cry…
