Chapter 1821: Chapter 1814 Little Ginseng Gets Hurt

Rong Ning’s eyes showed weariness, unwilling to pay her any mind, but Song Huaining pouted her lips, persistently persuading, “Brother Ning, just have a little, okay? Your injury is severe, and without medicine, it won’t heal. Not eating will weaken you further. Besides, the Crown Prince is still ordering your capture, what if you’re discovered…”

“Knowing I’m a fugitive, you still dare to save me.” Rong Ning’s indifferent eyes were as sharp as blades, “Have you grown fat and lost your brain as well? Harboring a fugitive could implicate your entire family?”

Song Huaining paused while holding the medicine, clearly hurt, but still forced a smile, “It’s okay, my parents love me. They won’t blame me, they still can…”

“They won’t blame you because they know you’re foolish, but surely you’re not so foolish as to not understand the disaster of annihilating your family?” Rong Ning had no intention of being sheltered by her; he stood up, intending to leave.

Yet Song Huaining embraced him, her broad figure exerting such strength that he couldn’t struggle free.

Song Huaining astonishingly lifted him, a grown man, off the ground, and carried him back to the bed; her plump face bore two lovely dimples, “Brother Ning, just recover here with me. I won’t let the Crown Prince harm you.”

“You…”

Rong Ning struggled several times but couldn’t get away. Song Huaining, both corpulent and strong, was impossible for him to contend with.

Song Huaining showed tremendous patience towards him; no matter how coldly he spoke, even if he scolded her to tears, she’d return after crying to persuade him to take his medicine.

Rong Ning really didn’t want to be with her, especially when Song Huaining earnestly treated him well, it seemed particularly ironic.

The first day he could get out of bed, he deceived Song Huaining by saying he wanted some pastries, sending her out to buy them.

Supporting himself against the wall, he exited through the back gate of the Song Residence, a cold blade pressed against his neck, and Su Chenyang’s handsome face wore a layer of frost, “Rong Ning, I used to admire you greatly, but the most disgraceful thing you’ve done is deceive Huaining!”

Rong Ning did not argue, compliantly allowing Su Chenyang to capture him.

He was locked in the deepest cell of the imperial prison, shackled from head to toe, bound with a pair of molten handcuffs, trapping him in this sunless place.

In the palace, Su Chenyang, having imprisoned Rong Ning, came to report his mission to Chu Heng.

Chu Heng looked up, gave a faint hum, and then asked him, “When will Yue’er return?”

Su Chenyang’s eyes flickered with a hint of unease, “There’s no news yet, perhaps Miss Yue has her own plans.”

“She has her own plans?” A trace of coldness flashed in Chu Heng’s eyes.

He put down the memorial, stood up, and walked towards Su Chenyang, “Chenyang, I don’t want to be deceived; she went on the expedition with you, but you’ve been back for five days now.”

He still hadn’t seen even a trace of Little Ginseng, and the army was almost at Jiang Du City!

“Your Highness, wait a while; Miss Yue will return safely. Tomorrow Your Highness is going to greet the army returning to the capital at the city gate, aren’t you?” Su Chenyang nodded slightly.

He knew well it was difficult to conceal anything from Chu Heng.

Chu Heng’s lips tightened, saying nothing more.

But the next day, when he went to the city gate to welcome the army returning to the capital, he didn’t see Little Ginseng.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, he returned to the palace to continue reviewing memorials, outwardly revealing nothing, but after handling state affairs, he heard from Sui Feng that Su Yingxue had left the palace with Chu Yihan to return to the Marquis’s Manor.

Chu Heng threw the memorial onto the imperial table, his face overcast, and left the palace alone.

In the Forget-sorrow Pavilion of the Marquis’s Manor, Little Ginseng lay weakly on the bed. She turned her head to see Su Yingxue and pulled up the corners of her mouth, “Su Yingxue, how come… you haven’t aged a bit!”

They hadn’t seen each other for so long, and she was still so beautiful!

Truly worthy of being her former master.
