Chapter 92 I want to go home (2)
Li Youde said, “I told you to find a doctor to have a look, but you didn’t want to! Do you know that it hurts now?” He was about to call someone to go get a doctor, but Chen Hui grabbed a corner of his clothes. He turned his head and met her teary eyes.
“Lord, this Lady Chen doesn’t want a doctor to have a look…Can you rub it for me? It is good to rub the bruises away,” Chen Hui said pitifully.
Li Youde couldn’t refuse her soft-spoken plea. He sat down on the bed and said, “I told you not to run around blindly. See, you brought this on yourself.”
Chen Hui didn’t mind. She moved a bit to the inside of the bed. She opened the ointment jar and paused a bit when she grabbed his hand. She put her hand on his five fingers and said with a slight smile, “Lord, look. Your hand is so much bigger than mine.”
Li Youde’s hand was grabbed by Chen Hui. Her left hand overlapped with his right hand. Comparing like this, his hand was bigger than her.
“You are a lady. What do you need such a big hand for?” Li Youde let Chen Hui play with his hand and laughed sarcastically.
The next second, the fiver fingers of Chen Hui’s left hand suddenly bent and slipped flexibly between his right hand’s fingers, tightly interlocking them.
The touch on his hand suddenly became distinct. Li Youde was startled. He struggled uncomfortably and said to cover it up, “Didn’t you want me to rub the sprain for you?”
Chen Hui’s grasp wasn’t light, but Li Youde pulled out his hand with a slight effort. He dug some ointment from the jar, put it on Chen Hui’s ankle and rubbed it gently.
“Aiya, it hurts…,” Chen hui bent slightly. She leaned her upper body against Li Youde and said cutely, “Lord, please be gentle…”
“It won’t help if you rub it lightly. Bear it!” Li Youde didn’t listen to her.
“Umm…ah…uh…,” Chen Hui made vague sounds from time to time.
Li Youde had naturally heard similar sounds before. Aside from being a bit curious at first, later he had become like a zither without ripples. But now, hearing Chen Hui’s rapid breathing in his ear, as well as the ambiguous soft gasp from pain, his palms were sweating and his body gradually became stiff. He wanted Chen Hui to shut up, but the words were stuck in his throat, unable to come out.
It was unknown how much time have passed. The ointment in his palm has been absorbed. Chen Hui leaned against Li Youde’s shoulder as if she had lost her strength and said weakly, “Thank you, lord, this Lady Chen feels a lot better now.”
Li Youde lowered his head slightly. Seeing the sweat on her forehead that has wet a few strands of hair, he wondered for a while whether she did it on purpose.
He put the ointment jar aside, but Chen Hui put her arms around his arm and didn’t let go. She said in a slightly complaining tone, “Lord, this Lady Chen wants to go back to the capital. Can we not have a war? It will be endless once it starts. That will be too long.”
Li Youde sneered coldly, “Who insisted on following in the first place?”
“I didn’t expect that I would be captured,” Chen Hui slightly exerted force. Defenseless Li Youde was pushed to the bed by her. He was startled and remembered by conditioned reflex, but Chen Hui raised her hand and pressed it on his chest. She pressed her entire upper body against him. She rested her head on his chest. Her right hand lightly drew circles on his chest. Her tone was mournful when she said, “It was really scary at the Xi tribe this time. When this Lady Chen thought about never being able to see lord again, this Lady Chen feels very sad.”
Li Youde was itchy because of Chen Hui’s dishonest hand drawing circles. So, he hurriedly held her hand, but she took advantage of the situation, grabbed his hand and played with his fingers. There were some old scars on his hand. She thought that this might be proof of the hardship he had suffered as a child.
“So, lord, don’t present a memorial to the emperor anymore. The person who attempted assassination is just an individual. The entire Xi tribe can’t take the blame for this. Besides, lord was not hurt today and this Lady Chen just suffered a minor injury. Moreover, I fell by myself. Therefore, why turn a small matter into a big one?”
Li Youde looked down and only saw Chen Hui’s hairy head. His left hand was held by her and to play with. He raised his right hand to push her away, but he reached out halfway and placed it lightly like a feather on her shoulder without the slightest strength. He was lying and he was attached to the feeling of leaning against his arm. It was too beautiful even if it was fake. He couldn’t help but want to enjoy it some more.
“The Xi people dared to assassinate me today. If I let this matter pass lightly, where would I put my face?” Li Youde said lazily.
Chen Hui said, “Wouldn’t the others not praise the magnanimity of lord? And most importantly, we can go back to the capital, go back home.”
Li Youde’s eyes softened because of Chen Hui’s ‘go back home’. His idea of planning to fight the Xi tribe until they become scared, couldn’t help but be shaken at this moment.
When Chen Hui didn’t hear Li Youde’s response, she propped up from his chest and looked him in the eyes. She said, “Lord, do you agree or not?”
“This matter is not a child’s play. It wouldn’t be like how you want!” Li Youde said with a serious face.
Chen Hui moved up. She suddenly leaned down and kissed Li Youde’s lips lightly. She said with a faint smile, “Of course, it is lord who has the final say. This Lady Chen is just complaining and counting on lord. This Lady Chen just hopes that lord can take pity on this Lady Chen…”
As she spoke, she kissed Li Youde lightly on the lips again, “Lord, let’s go back to the capital. It is really boring here.”
Having said that, she lowered her head again and kissed Li Youde’s rosy lips. Just like a naughty child who found a toy. Chen Hui kissed him after each sentence and had a great time.
“….Alright, let’s wait for the emperor’s decree then!” Before Chen Hui’s next kiss fell, Li Youde suddenly turned his face and said helplessly.
“Lord, you are the best!” Chen Hui said. She held Li Youde’s face and kissed him loudly on the lips again. The emperor’s decree will arrive in a few weeks. She thought that the emperor was likely to agree to the negotiation of peace. As long as Li Youde didn’t cause any more unnecessary trouble, there was still a high possibility that the war will end here!
“Get down. Youde foot is hurt and you still jump up and down like a monkey!” Li Youde pushed Chen Hui.
Chen Hui couldn’t get down. So, she simply pounced Li Youde and said with a smile, “I won’t get down! Lord, it is so late. Let’s go to bed!”
Li Youde was startled by the soft feeling on his chest. Seeing that Chen Hui was just pressed against him and holding him without any strange movements, he felt relieved. He hurriedly pushed her away, turned over and stood a bit far from the bed. He said with a cold face, “Go to sleep. I still have businesses to do.”
He turned around and walked out.
Chen Hui smiled and waved. She lay back satisfied after having accomplished her motive.
Li Youde walked out of Chen Hui’s room. Ah Da and Ah Er who were waiting outside, quickly followed him.
The soundproofing of the room here was not very good. When the two were waiting outside, they naturally heard some strange noises. When the two exchanged a glance, they tacitly pretended that they didn’t hear anything and kept a distance. Seeing Li Youde striding out now and his fingers seemed to touch his lips unconsciously, Ah Er couldn’t help but chuckle, “Lord….do you want Lady Chen to keep the lights on and wait for you?”
Li Youde stopped. The pleased smile on his face when he first came out suddenly disappeared. He said coldly, “Who told you to talk so much?”
Ah Er was stunned and hurriedly said, “It, it is this little one who spoke too much!”
Li Youde didn’t bother with him and accelerated his pace back to his room. Before entering his room, he took a glance at Chen Hui’s room where the candlelight shone through, but it could only illuminate a square inch.
His eyes became cold with his expression. He lowered his eyes and recalled her alluring smiles and eyes just now. He snorted softly, turned and went into his room.
