Chapter 76 Want to go together (2)
Seeing that Li Youde was hesitating, Chen Hui originally wanted to make persistent efforts to successfully persuade him, but he changed so fast. Seeing his firm appearance, she was afraid that no matter what she says, he would not change his mind.
“Lord is really a hero who is not afraid of hardships and dangers!” Chen Hui also immediately changed her speaking strategy. She showed a look of admiration and said awe-inspiringly, “This Lady Chen also wants to go with lord!”
As soon as Li Youde heard the first half, the corners of his mouth raised, but when he heard the second half, his gaze turned into a glare, “Wilful!”
“This Lady Chen is not acting willfully. This Lady Chen just want to advance and retreat with lord!” Chen Hui said, “When this Lady Chen secretly followed was because this Lady Chen wanted to get a peace of mind due to being together with lord. However, now lord is going to the frontline alone and leaving this Lady Chen; what is the point of this Lady Chen following?”
She softened her tone and pleaded, “Lord, let this Lady Chen go with you.”
“What use is there for you, a woman, to follow to the frontline? You will only be a hindrance!” Li Youde disagreed and turned down her request.
“This Lady Chen didn’t cause any hindrance all the way to here. It will be the same when we get to the frontline. This Lady Chen can endure hardship very well and is not afraid of anything!” Chen Hui said.
“Can endure hardship very well?” Li Youde gave her a sarcastic smile and said with a cold face, “This is not something where you can act wilfully on. There is no discussion about this. Stay here and wait for my return!”
After he finished speaking, he seemed to not want to talk to Chen Hui anymore and walked out quickly.
“Lord!” Chen Hui would naturally not give up easily and hurriedly followed.
Li Youde opened the door, walked out and slammed the door shut. Just as he was about to call people over to watch Chen Hui so that she wouldn’t cause trouble, he heard a muffled hum in the room behind him.
He stopped abruptly. After thinking about it, he turned around and opened the door.
Chen Hui was squatting in front of him, shrank into a small ball like a wounded bird and there were a few dazzling drops of red blood on the ground in front of her.
Li Youde panicked. He immediately lowered his body in front of Chen Hui and asked, “Where have you been hurt?”
Chen Hui turned around and faced him with her back. She refused to let him see it. She was in too much pain to want to speak. She followed closely behind Li Youde when he went out. Unexpectedly, he closed the door too quickly. She didn’t even have the time to react when she was hit on the bridge of her nose. It was so painful that her tears fell.
“Let me see!” Li Youde pulled Chen Hui’s hand slightly hard and finally saw her tearful face, red and swollen nose and a trail of blood underneath.
“Does it hurt?” He asked a nonsense question first and then busily helped Chen Hui sit at the table.
Chen Hui cried so much that she didn’t even dare to breathe through her nose. She threw away his hand and said annoyedly, “This…this Lady Chen is already not that pretty and now the nose is injured. How would I be able to face people in the future? Being so ugly, this Lady Chen should just really die.”
Li Youde frowned, “If anyone dares to say that you are ugly, I will let him unable to see the sun of tomorrow!”
Chen Hui glared at Li Youde and said, “Lord, do you mean that I am ugly?”
Seeing Chen Hui’s tearful eyes and that she seemed to collapse any time because of a word from him, Li Youde quickly said, “Not ugly, not ugly. Lady Chen is the most beautiful!”
“Really?” Chen Hui said, “Better looking than Lady Jiang?”
Li Youde was dumbstruck, “Why mention her for no reason?”
“Lord, why do you care about who I mention? Tell me quickly!” Chen Hui said.
Li Youde was speechless for a while.
Chen Hui turned her head and cried sadder, “This Lady Chen knows that Lady Jiang is more beautiful than this Lady Chen, but Lady Jiang is not here now and lord is still unwilling to say something good about this Lady Chen…Not only that, lord doesn’t even want this Lady Chen to accompany lord…Alright, this Lady Chen will go back.”
Chen Hui suddenly stood up, clutched her nose and walked out.
“Where are you going?!” Li Youde hurriedly stood up and shouted angrily.
But Chen Hui didn’t have any meaning to stop at all.
Li Youde hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her. With a badly burned about the head expression, he said, “Go where?! Stay here!”
Chen Hui turned away from him and ignored him stubbornly.
Her side profile is soft and beautiful and her bright red nose makes her look pitiful. After being in a stalemate with her for a while, Li Youde’s attitude finally softened a bit, “Even when you are hurt, you look better than Lady Jiang. Satisfied?”
Chen Hui pursed her lips and ignored him.
Li Youde had an anxious expression. Of course, he knew which sentence she wanted but how could he promise her? He had some worries about going to Jianbei himself, let alone taking her with him.
“If lord has nothing to say, this Lady Chen will go out,” Chen Hui waited for a while and didn’t get Li Youde’s softened stance. She was ready to stir him up again.
Li Youde recovered himself, “Go out? Where are you going? Where can you go? Without my order, you can’t go anywhere!”
Chen Hui turned her back to him and said, “Lord can try. If you go to Jianbei alone, see if you can still see this Lady Chen when you come back!”
“You dare to threaten me?” Li Youde’s face also turned cold.
“It is not a threat; it is a fact.” Chen Hui was not afraid of his fierce look right now and said with a casual tone.
“You…you, you really anger me to death!” Li Youde paced in the room with anger, “War is not a child’s play. Can’t you stop messing around?”
“Lord doesn’t let this Lady Chen run, this Lady Chen can not run. There are many people here anyway. Some are daring to pass some time with this Lady Chen,” Chen Hui pretended to say nonchalantly.
Li Youde was taken aback for a moment and then understood what she meant. Was she planning to cuckold him?
His face darkened. He knew that she could do it, just like what she did to him in the beginning. That seductive appearance, even he almost couldn’t bear it, how could ordinary men withstand it?
“You, you really have no shame!” Li Youde was so angry that his articulation was unclear.
Chen Hui was not angry and instead gave him a triumphant glance. Everything was said in silence.
“You, you, take your things immediately and go with me!” Li Youde said angrily.
“Thanking lord,” Chen Hui smiled immediately. With a smile on her face, she ran out to pack her things.
Li Youde stayed in the room for a long time. Only when he calmed down did he realize that he was led by the nose by Lady Chen. Knowing that she was only using those words to stir him up, he had no other choice. If he let her stay here, he was really afraid of something happening in case!
Suddenly, he paced back and forth anxiously in the room with his hands behind his back. He originally thought that if he didn’t show it too obvious, Lady Chen would curb herself a bit, but now, it seemed that he had underestimated her. Instead, it was he who was firmly in her grasp. If it continues like this, where is his prestige? What if someone else got to know about this and use it against him? What should he do then?
He felt more fretful, but he couldn’t find a satisfactory way for a long time.
