Shangguan Yahan's current strength was still unknown. If Sage Ye's martial arts were slightly better, then he wouldn't be worried. Sage Ye wouldn't do anything to her.
However, if Shangguan Yahan was stronger, that might not be the case.
"Tsk." Shangguan Yahan really didn't put Sage Ye in her eyes anymore. She was really eager to compete with Sage Ye.
If she's not as good as him, then so be it. If she's better than him…She snorted coldly in her heart.
"Yahan, aren't you hungry?" Situ Yue saw Shangguan Yahan's expression change from anger to…like a villain who had achieved success, and he had a bad premonition.
"Eat, I've been hungry for a day." Shangguan Yahan rubbed her belly and sat down.
Yesterday, when she was packing up, she had put away all the memorable things in the old man's house. She had forgotten to prepare dry rations for herself.
However, this was not her fault. In her previous life, she did not prepare any food when she went on a long journey. How could she have thought so thoroughly in such a short time?
She looked at the large table of delicacies in front of her and swallowed her saliva.
It had been a long time since she had eaten so much good food. Today, she wanted to show everyone how the Giant North Sea Monster ate.
"Yahan, slow down, don't choke.”Situ Yue glanced at Sage Ye. Seeing him eat elegantly with his head lowered and pretending to be calm, he really wanted to give him a slap on the head.
In the past month, who knew who it was, but he didn't eat or drink. He had lost a lot of weight and almost lost his position as regent. Now, he was pretending to be a human.
After eating and drinking to their hearts 'content, the servants served some fruits.
Shangguan Yahan missed these days to death. Of course, the time she spent with the old man was also very happy.
Situ Yue left after finishing his meal, and Sage Ye also ordered the servants to leave. So now, only Shangguan Yahan and Sage Ye were left in the hall, along with the sound of Shangguan Yahan chewing.
Sage Ye still didn't say a word, staring straight at Shangguan Yahan.
Shangguan Yahan felt that no matter how thick-skinned she was, she couldn't be like this. She was about to see through her, and her scalp was burning.
"Sage Ye, what are you trying to do? If you have something to say, just say it. Are you still holding a grudge against me for taking off your pants? I know you're petty and vengeful. You even stripped me naked just now. I haven't said anything. If you're really angry, let's go out and compare our strength now. Stop playing cold violence with me.”Shangguan Yahan slammed the table and stood up, eager to fight Sage Ye.
"Why did you come back?" This was the second time Sage Ye had spoken since Shangguan Yahan returned.
"Do you think I want to come back? Didn't I tell you that I'm so tired after a day of traveling? You don't want to see me, but I don't want to see you either.”Shangguan Yahan snorted and turned to leave.
Sage Ye was shocked. He stepped forward and hugged Shangguan Yahan from behind. He rested his chin on her shoulder and whispered weakly in her ear," Yahan 'er, don't leave Brother Ye again, okay?"”
At that time, he really thought that she had run away on her own. He missed her and was angry.
His hatred for her was as deep as his love for her. Now that he knew that she had been kidnapped, he could not take it lying down, so he had never been nice to her.
However, how could he let go?
Shangguan Yahan couldn't keep up with his thoughts. She frowned and turned her head slightly to look at him,"Sage Ye, are you crazy?" For me?"
Sage Ye didn't say anything again. He buried his face into her neck and started to suck. Shangguan Yahan naturally struggled, pried open his hand, turned around, and gave him a slap.
Shangguan Yahan swore that she didn't really want to kill Sage Ye, but the strength of that palm was too strong. Sage Ye…actually spat out blood!
She stood rooted to the ground and watched as Sage Ye took two steps back. He clutched his chest and frowned. Then…he vomited blood.
It wasn't as exaggerated as spitting it out, and there was very little blood hanging from the corner of her mouth, but it still gave her a fright.
"Sorry, sorry, sorry." She apologized profusely. In a moment of nervousness, she quickly put Sage Ye on her back and walked into the inner hall. Then, she carefully placed him on the bed and turned to run, but she was pulled back by someone.
"Yahan 'er." Sage Ye coughed weakly.
"Don't say anything first. I'll go get Zimo now.”She spoke very quickly and tried to pry open Sage Ye's palm with her other hand.
"Yahan 'er, don't go. Brother Ye…there are still many things he wants to tell you.”Sage Ye struggled to get up, but Shangguan Yahan quickly went back to stop him.
"What nonsense are you talking about? You're so powerful, how could you die so easily? Don't be silly. I'll go get Zimo. He's very skilled in medicine. You'll be fine.”Shangguan Yahan's little heart was also thumping, and she was blaming herself for not being too careful.
Sage Ye shook his head and smiled sadly." It's no use, Yahan 'er. Brother Ye knows his own health very well.”
"Someone, someone!" Shangguan Yahan interrupted Sage Ye.
The old man had said the same thing before, so she was very afraid of this sentence now.
"Yahan 'er, what are you doing?" Sage Ye was stunned and coughed again.
Shangguan Yahan sat down by the bed and saw a servant girl coming in from outside the door. She quickly ordered," Quickly send someone to invite Young Master Han over. His Highness is injured, hurry!"”
"Yes, sir!" The servant girl bowed and quickly retreated.
"Yahan 'er." Sage Ye raised his trembling hand with difficulty and slowly placed it on Shangguan Yahan's cheek. Shangguan Yahan then turned to look at him.
"I'm here, Sage Ye. Speak, I'm listening.”Shangguan Yahan nodded her head randomly. This was the first time she was so obedient in front of Sage Ye.
Sage Ye looked at Shangguan Yahan affectionately, his eyes actually a little wet." Yahan 'er, Brother Ye knows that he has done a lot of things to let you down in the past. Yahan' er, can you forgive Brother Ye?”
Shangguan Yahan paused for a moment, her brain working quickly.
If she nodded and Sage Ye didn't die, wouldn't it be too good for him? But what if he was really going to die? If he still died in her hands, all the hatred from before would be written off.
But he was not dead yet.
Forget it, forget it. Even if he didn't die, he was still injured. He couldn't even pay off his injuries. At most, he would secretly hate him in the future.
"Alright." Shangguan Yahan's tone was a little reluctant, but she also heard it clearly. She immediately smiled and nodded.
"Yahan 'er, there's something else Brother Ye has never told you…I love you, I really love you. Yahan' er, do you still love Brother Ye?”Sage Ye's gaze slowly turned into anticipation.
Shangguan Yahan paused again, this time for a longer time.
He actually asked her if she loved him. Wasn't he asking for trouble? He didn't even think about it, could she love him?
This person was about to die, yet he still made things difficult for her.
"That…now is not the time to talk about this. Don't talk anymore and save some energy. Zimo will be here soon. Be good and listen to me.”She lifted her hand to remove his hand from her cheek, patted his cheek, and sighed silently.
Shangguan Yahan herself wasn't sure how she felt about Sage Ye. It was natural for her to hate him, but she didn't want him to die. She didn't hate him as much as before. After all, he was her first man. Women were all like this, whether it was ancient or modern.
However, she was certain that she would never fall in love with Sage Ye in this lifetime.
"Sage Ye, you must not die. You still have great ambitions. If you die like this, what will happen to the people who followed you? Besides, dying in my hands is such a waste. You must persevere.”She held his hand tightly, but he raised his other hand and pulled her into his embrace.
"Yahan 'er, I can die in your hands without regrets. I've done too many things to let you down, and I deserve it.”He patted her back gently, his voice weakening.
"Sage Ye." Shangguan Yahan didn't know what to say, quietly lying in his arms, listening to his strong heartbeat.
Eh, his heartbeat is so normal. He should be fine, right?
Thinking of this, Shangguan Yahan let out a sigh of relief.
Not long after, Han Zimo rushed over with a medicine box on his back. From afar, he said," Yahan, stand aside."”
"Oh." Shangguan Yahan stood up abruptly and accidentally pressed herself against Sage Ye's chest. Just as she was about to apologize, Han Zimo had already rushed over.
Shangguan Yahan became even more nervous as she watched Han Zimo take Sage Ye's pulse without blinking.
"Second senior brother, you…tell me, who injured you so badly? Second senior brother, I will definitely avenge you, but…I am powerless.”Han Zimo turned his head to the side and wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes with his sleeve.
Shangguan Yahan was dumbfounded, her mind blank. It took her a while to recover,"How could this be?" Zimo, you haven't even tried. How do you know you can't save her? Zimo, give him the medicine."
Han Zimo stood up." Yahan, it's useless. Second Senior Brother's internal organs have been shattered…He doesn't have much time left."”
"No, no, I didn't use that much strength. How did this happen? Sage Ye, don't die. You can't die.”She wanted to say that if he died, she would be a sinner, but saying such words now was really not kind.
"Yahan 'er, before Brother Ye dies, can you promise me something?”Sage Ye pulled Shangguan Yahan's hand and spoke a little more.
"Tell me, I promise you." Shangguan Yahan nodded and sat on the bed.
Sage Ye coughed a few times and felt even more pained." Brother Ye wants to hear you say…that you love me.”
Shangguan Yahan was conflicted.
It wasn't impossible to say that she loved him. The deceased was the most important, so she had to satisfy his last request.
However, wasn't it a little too unethical to lie to someone who was about to die?
