Illegitimate Daughter’s Revenge - C80
“On what basis?” Lin Long’s words stopped Ji Zhong’s thoughts.
Along the way, Ji Zhen did not speak any further. In the instant Lin’s disease’s coffin was buried in his ancestor’s grave, the tears could not be stopped any longer. Ji Zhen knelt down and led Ji Feng to silently cry.
Xuan Yue had originally thought it was strange, if he was like this, he would have probably been pushed away. But today, he did not have any reaction, and what surprised Xuan Yue even more was that Ji Zhen was actually leaning into her embrace.
“It’s fine, let me borrow your shoulder for a while.” What was even more unexpected to Xuan Yue was that Ji Zhen actually turned around and laid on his shoulder. Xuan Yue’s entire body stiffened, and even his brain was almost unable to process what was happening.
Not long after, Xuan Yue felt that his shoulders were drenched, and actually cried. Xuan Yue reached out and hugged Ji Zhen, relying on the silent tears in her arms.
“Enough, stop crying.” Xuan Yue took a step back. Seeing Ji Zhen, whose eyes had turned red from crying, he laughed lightly and pointed at her nose. “Weeper!”
Ji Zhen turned around and carried him, then got pulled into his embrace, “What? Still angry? I’m not the one who made you angry. ”
“Nothing, I just feel that there are some things that I can’t salvage if I miss them.” Ji Zhen’s mysterious words reminded Xuan Yue of his own past life. In his previous life, although he liked Ji Zhen, he gave up the throne because Ji Zhen liked Xuan Hao, and even gave up his life for Xuan Hao.
He had always thought that the person Ji Zhen loved was Xuan Hao, so he didn’t want to miss out on this life. He also didn’t want Ji Zhen to fall in love with him, and he didn’t want to miss out on anything after that one more time.
But when he saw Ji Zhen crying, Xuan Yue felt very uncomfortable in his heart. After thinking for a moment, he gave a slight smile and called out a name that made Ji Zhen’s face flush as he said it, “Junior Sister.”
Ji Zhen immediately thought of the old man from the Ghost Doctor. She had thought that Xuan Yue didn’t know, but she didn’t expect him to know. Ji Zhen turned away from him and pretended to be serious as she said to Xuan Yue, “Your Highness Second Prince, my Grandmother is your sister, so logically speaking, I should be your aunt. Calling me that is against the rules.”
Who knew that this Xuan Yue would actually call her little aunt with such a thick skin? He was so embarrassed that Ji Zhen didn’t dare to look at him.
“What? You told me to call you that.” Xuan Yue pretended to look at Ji Zhen with an innocent expression, and angrily struck on the chest with her hammer. Hearing Xuan Yue’s muffled groan, Ji Zhen anxiously asked: “What’s wrong? I didn’t hit too hard, hurry up and let me see. ”
Ji Zhen anxiously wanted to see if she could catch Xuan Yue, so Xuan Yue suddenly pulled her into his embrace and whispered into her ear: “Little aunt, I’m fine.”
Ji Zhen struggled as she felt embarrassed. She then pushed Xuan Yue away and said angrily, “You’re teasing me again!”
Only now did he realize that Xuan Yue was looking at him with a pale face, “How could I tease you?” Ji Zhen immediately noticed the traces of blood on Xuan Yue’s chest. “What happened to you? “Let me see.”
“I’m fine, there are people watching me nearby. Don’t make any noise, let’s slowly walk back.” It was only then that Ji Zhen noticed that there seemed to be someone hiding in ambush not too far away from him.
“Who are they? Why are you being chased? ” Although Ji Zhen asked with her mouth, she knew clearly in her heart that this should be the person that Xuan Hao had sent. Xuan Hao did not want to be a Holy Pet, if he could get rid of this Xuan Yue who had obtained the Sacred Heart, there would only be a sickly First Prince on this list, so there was no problem at all for him to sit on the throne.
“If my guess is not wrong, it should be Xuan Hao’s men.” Xuan Yue looked and noticed that the person chasing after him seemed to have realised that he was injured, and quickly urged him: “Quickly go, they should have noticed that I was injured and will not let us go.”
Ji Zhen laughed lightly and placed Xuan Yue to the side, “Sit down, I’ll let you watch a good show.”
No matter how Xuan Yue shouted, he was unable to stop Ji Zhen’s actions. When the killers discovered that Xuan Yue was injured, they immediately rushed over. Ji Zhen pulled out the soft whip from her waist, and then took out a small medicine bottle from her sleeve. She lightly waved it in the air, and a faint fragrance immediately spread out.
“This is bad!” “There’s poison!” This assassin was a person who was wandering around death so he naturally understood this poisonous object. When he saw Ji Zhen’s actions, he immediately understood Ji Zhen’s intention, but it was too late for him to cover her nose.
But even so, there were still some people who had inhaled less, and in the end, they still fought with Ji Zhen. There was no need to talk about Ji Zhen’s martial arts, adding that she was with Xuan Hao in her previous life, she had an extremely deep understanding of her subordinates’ martial arts.
Ji Zhen walked to Xuan Yue’s side and chuckled, “It’s fine, Little Aunt will protect you in the future.” However, Xuan Yue’s face reddened, and after that, he tugged along the hand Ji Zhen reached out, pulling Ji Zhen down to the ground as well, “Then I’ll have to trouble little aunt Yue’er in the future.”
“You sure are thick-skinned.” Ji Zhen reached out to pinch Xuan Yue’s face, but instead tilted her head and stuck Ji Zhen’s finger into her mouth, “Since little aunt says so, Yue’er naturally cannot disappoint you, little aunt.”
Ji Zhen could feel Xuan Yue’s warm tongue brushing against his fingers, and his entire body involuntarily trembled. He could feel a numbing sensation coming from his fingers.
