C185 (1/2)
Sun Jinzi's back landed on the wide prismatic window s that were carved in the sky. Jin Chupei couldn't help but to be stunned, he stood there quietly and did not move for a long time.
For some reason, he couldn't see anything, but it was as if he could see everything.
He could not tear his eyes away.
With just that blurry view of his back, he was able to stop his footsteps.
”Master …” Mu Rong's voice sounded from behind him.
Jin Chupei nodded, then waved his hand, signalling for her to withdraw.
Mu Rong did not speak any further, nor did she question any further. She directly retreated outside the courtyard and stood guard at the entrance, like a door god.
”Zi Er.” Jin Chupei adjusted his emotions and slowly walked in.
Sun Jinzi was reading under the light.
It was just that that page had never been opened.
Her eyes could only stare at the black and white words on it, unmoving.
After Jin Chupei called out to her three times, she slowly turned his head, ”Oh.” Then he looked back at the words.
Jin Chupei was a little curious, he walked over and saw that the book was actually the《 Women's Descent》
At the other end of the case was a copy of the Female Commandment.
”Zi Er is reading a book?”
Sun Jinzi's brows did not even twitch.
”Obviously.” Can't you see?
Of course, Jin Chupei could tell, but why did she want to read the books?
Jin Chupei didn't think that Sun Jinzi needed to read this kind of book. At least women that he liked didn't.
”Yes, I can see it.” I just don't know why.
Jin Chupei still wanted to ask, but after Sun Jinzi looked at him for a moment, he no longer looked at him, and the words that he wanted to ask could no longer come out of his mouth.
Jin Chupei stood behind Sun Jinzi like that, his figure was long and slender, his body slightly leaned forward, and bent down as he stared at Sun Jinzi.
A quarter of an hour later, Sun Jinzi raised her head, seemingly a little surprised. ”Why hasn't Your Highness left yet?”
Sun Jinzi's tone was very calm, as if she was asking how the weather was today.
However, for some reason, Jin Chupei could smell a scent of gunpowder from it.
”Zi Er.”
He could hear Sun Jinzi's unhappiness, and also that little bit of grievance that was revealed between her brows.
What happened to Zi Er today?
Obviously, when they separated at Sensory Temple, they were still fine, but Zi Er's mood was calm.
Could it be that's junior brother, Qing Xiu, said something bad in front of her after he left?
or perhaps Sima Yuzhu took advantage of his absence to find Zi Er, and said something that she shouldn't have said.
Jin Chupei came back to his senses immediately. Looking at Sun Jinzi, he opened his mouth, wanting to ask, but he did not have the courage.
He was afraid that the answer he had heard was not what he wanted.
”Zi Er...” After saying so many things, it became one word.
Deep and gentle, also like a cup of old wine that had been left untouched for a long time. It was being stored within the deep mud, slowly eroding Sun Jinzi's hearing bit by bit.
This kind of Jin Chupei was something she had never seen before.
He became very careful, as if he was really afraid of what would happen to him because of her bad mood.
Actually, she was truly angry, but her anger was not entirely due to her anger towards Jin Chupei.
She was just angry with herself.
She had experienced such a strong rebirth, yet she had fallen step by step into someone else's hands.
From the beginning to the end, she did not seem to have gained any advantage in many things. This was something that she did not like.
So, she was unhappy. She wanted to vent.
It just so happened that Jin Chupei arrived at this time, and as a result, he vented all of his anger and indignation on Jin Chupei without mercy.
It was just that after venting, Sun Jinzi realized that she wasn't feeling any better at all. On the contrary, her mood seemed to be getting worse and worse.
She was at a loss as to what to do.
The more it was like this, the worse the mood was.
”Zi Er, do you have something on your mind?” Jin Chupei had been probing and looking at Sun Jinzi this entire time, his voice soft and even the expression on his face extremely cautious.
He was not afraid that Sun Jinzi would get angry, he was afraid that after Sun Jinzi got angry, it would make her angry.
Jin Chupei remembered everything clearly. Before this, Divine Doctor Ji Zi had already told him that he could not get angry easily.
Because her cold poison had long since injured her heart, the calmer she was, the better it would be for her body.
But now, Sun Jinzi was obviously angry.
It was as if she was still angry with him.
