Does it Hurt a Lot?
Qian Yun Er naturally knew how much Long MuChen doted Qian DuoDuo, secretly letting out a sigh.
Long YiTian looked as though he had seen a savior and thought that Qian DuoDuo would be excused from physical pain.
“Oh, as it turned out, it’s our Cheng w.a.n.g ah. I was wondering who would be so presumptuous and dared to use violence in the royal garden.” The person talking was Imperial Concubine Hui who exclaimed in a peculiar tone who relied on the fact that her father was an important general who made many accomplishments.
Long MuChen hadn’t even paid attention to the Imperial Concubine Hui who was chirping nonstop. His gaze stopped on Qian DuoDuo’s body.
After he was done with the royal court within the throne room, he was also pulled by the Emperor to have some drinks. When he came out, he had heard from the servants’ gossips that Qian DuoDuo had stirred up trouble within the royal garden.
He was scared that she might be caught by the Empress or the concubines within the palace and then suffer some grievances so he hurriedly came over.
However, he was still slower by a step.
The moment when he walked into the royal garden, he had seen that she was placed under control by a couple of guards. Her hairs were scattered apart and the jade green skirt had some mud stuck to it. Her head was drooped down and she didn’t say a word at all, as though there was no life within her.
Long MuChen originally knew that Qian DuoDuo was bullied but the anxiousness he imagined was one thing but another thing to personally watch as someone dared to hit her.
Besides anger, a strong feeling of pain filled the air. It was even fierce than the first time at the Qian’s manor.
Therefore, at that time, he hadn’t thought for a second before harming the imperial guards…
Long MuChen rapidly walked over to Qian DuoDuo’s side and bent his body. He softly called: “Duo Er?”
Before Qian DuoDuo faintly heard Long MuChen’s voice but she was preoccupied with her limp legs, kneeling on the ground. She hadn’t raised her head but who knew after a couple seconds later, she heard his voice again.
It was the usual elegant and graceful, the usual tone containing the faint pampered and the usual easy to bully tone.
Qian DuoDuo lifted her head up and the mouth was swollen harshly. She blinked her eyes and under the bright bottom of the eyes, was a reflection of Long MuChen’s handsome face. She just had her mouth open, not saying anything.
Long MuChen raised his hand over to carry Qian DuoDuo up from the ground. The young lady still had her head lowered, not willing to talk to him. He wasn’t angry. It’s just that at the bottom of his heart, he had a depressed feeling.
How did she get hurt? Was she really beaten up?
Long MuChen slightly lifted her chin and the slender fingers as though jade slowly swept through her lips containing blood stains. His heart hurt so much as though a sword had slashed through his heart. He was anxious as though something was burning up within.
“Duo Er, does it hurt a lot?”
Long MuChen lowered his head and the forehead touched her hairs which contained delicate fragrance. He softly rubbed against it.
Qian DuoDuo thought that she was still a good role model. Before she had slapped Imperial Concubine Hui which caused her to jump up and down out of anger. She completely didn’t have the grace of an Imperial Concubine. She also slapped Zhu SiSi and that woman immediately ducked into Long YuTian’s embrace, not coming out and acting as though she was delicate.
Then look at herself. She was slapped to the ground by Long YuTian and kicked a couple times by the imperial guards. Her heart wasn’t able to bear with this but still, she acted indifferent regardless of the humiliation.
She thought that the worst outcome was that she would be decapitated by cannon fodder. Then she would cross back over to the 21st century. She – Qian DuoDuo would still be considered a hero!
