Chapter 267 The Sickly Prince and His Naughty Little Princess 35
"Why did the prince go back to his room like a thief, tiptoeing?"
There was a hint of joking in Mu Wanxi's tone.
Strangely enough, she really didn't hear the sound of this person coming in.
With her skills and hearing ability, this shouldn't have happened. How could she only notice it when someone was close to her?
Mu Wanxi felt helpless. Could the impact really be that great?
She didn't want to delve into it any further, so she came back to her senses, only to find that Luo Chen hadn't said a word and was just holding her tightly.
Mu Wanxi frowned slightly, realizing something was wrong.
She turned around and looked at Luochen.
Luo Chen's face was extremely pale, his lips were bloodless, but his eyes were red, and he was staring at him straight.
His eyes revealed a complex emotion of both aggrieved and distressed.
Mu Wanxi couldn't help but be stunned.
This was the first time she saw this man with such an expression.
Even when he was seriously ill and lying on the bed, he had never shown such a pitiful and fragile look before.
He now looked extremely fragile, as if he could be blown away by just a slight breeze.
Mu Wanxi suddenly felt panicky for no apparent reason.
Words of concern came out of his mouth.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Mu Wanxi was a little anxious and her brows couldn't help but frown slightly.
Logically speaking, they have already done that... thing, so there shouldn't be any problems.
But seeing Luochen's terrible condition, she was a little unsure.
Could it be that the old guy was deliberately hiding something and deceiving himself?
Just as she was thinking about whether she should go and settle the score with someone now.
Luochen gently embraced her in his arms again, with an obvious sob in his voice.
"Wanwan... why are you so stupid..."
He is not worthy.
How could a man like him, who had crawled out of a dark hell, be worthy of her doing so much for him?
After hearing this, Mu Wanxi was stunned for a moment, then seemed to have thought of something.
I couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
She raised her slender arms, hugged him back, and gently stroked his back.
"You know everything."
Not a question, but a tone of affirmation.
Luochen nodded slightly.
----
Two hours ago, Suifeng came to tell him that Zhuxing wanted to see him alone.
He asked Suifeng to take the person to the study and wait.
When Luo Chen sat down in front of the desk, he looked up and saw a young man standing below. He looked very tired, but still tried to straighten his back, with a look of defiance and stubbornness.
He was a little curious about what the boy wanted to say to him.
Because he knew that it must be related to Wanwan.
From the first time he saw the boy, he clearly felt his defensiveness and hostility towards him.
That kind of hostility does not simply come from distrust of oneself.
Even though he later deliberately restrained his hostility and no longer expressed it so obviously, Luo Chen knew that he was still very wary of him.
But he didn't take it to heart.
The only person he cared about was Wanwan; nothing else mattered.
A silent atmosphere spread between the two of them, and no one spoke first.
He didn't say, and he didn't ask.
The two of them were in a stalemate.
There was not a very strong charcoal fire burning in the study. Suifeng was worried about Luochen's health and wanted to ask someone to add some charcoal.
Luochen waved his hand to indicate that it was not necessary.
Suifeng had no choice but to move the charcoal basin towards Luochen.
Then he stood aside again, but his brows were tightly knitted, looking at the silent boy with displeasure, and he could not hide his anxiety in his heart.
It seemed as if he could sense Suifeng's gaze.
The boy raised his head and bit his lower lip slightly, still looking stubborn.
But he finally spoke first.
"Have you ever heard of the love poison of the South?"
The young man stood below and asked word by word with a serious look but without any context.
Luochen's eyebrows moved slightly.
He had vaguely seen records of the Southern Country's love Gu in the information Xiao Tongzi gave him, but the introduction was not detailed.
He only vaguely knew that there were people in the South who were good at the art of witchcraft and who raised some very powerful poisonous insects, some of which could even capture people's minds.
And this love Gu seems to be a very powerful kind of Gu magic.
But he didn't know the details.
These things never seem to have appeared in the original plot.
He suddenly mentioned it to himself, which made Luo Chen have a vague guess in his heart.
This speculation made him feel a little uneasy.
The young man saw that Luochen looked worried but did not answer his question, and he seemed certain in his heart that he did not understand.
He sneered in his heart, raised his chin, and continued talking to himself.
"The love poison of the South Country can be planted into the bodies of a man and a woman when they are having sex. From then on, the two can feel each other and share each other's lifespan and health."
When he spoke the last part, Zhuxing gritted his teeth and his eyes looked like they were about to spit fire, but then he seemed to calm down a little, took a deep breath and continued to preach.
"The Gu worm will provide the host's power to the other Gu worm every time they have intercourse. This is co-existence.
After the two of them have empathy, the mother Gu has a greater influence on the child Gu.
Therefore, if the mother Gu dies, the offspring will also die in a short period of time, and the host will also die. This is co-death.
But there is one different situation. If the host of the child Gu changes his heart, the Gu worm will eat up the host's heart and burst out of the body, causing the host to die in pain, but the mother Gu will not be affected. "
Having said that, Zhuxing believed that the prince should have understood what he wanted to express.
So after he finished speaking, he stared at Luochen's eyes, as if he wanted to see panic or helplessness in his eyes.
But after hearing this, Luochen's pupils just shrank slightly, and he quickly digested this information in his heart.
Soon, as if he thought of something, he frowned.
"The one in my body is the mother Gu?"
Although his tone was questioning, there was a hint of certainty in his eyes.
Only this explanation makes sense.
After last night, he did not feel any extra effects or discomfort in his body.
On the contrary, he felt that his spirits had improved a lot. He had a vague feeling about it, but he did not think much about it. He just thought that the medicine given by that unreliable Tongzi had just taken effect.
He was so immersed in the sweet harmony with Wanwan that he ignored many details.
Now that I think about it belatedly, I realize that something is wrong.
In order to save him, his Wanwan must have put the dominant mother Gu into his body.
She is sharing everything she has with herself, and she wants to live and die with herself.
There was a storm in Luochen's heart at that moment.
His silly Wanwan, what should he do with her...
Apart from Wanwan, there will be no one else in this world who would be so selfless and give everything for him.
Only his evening.
··· ···
But now is not the time to be moved.
Luochen calmed down.
He glanced at the person below who had a somewhat surprised and complicated expression.
"Is there a solution to this Gu?"
