Chapter 27 part 1
I stayed by Chu Kong’s bed for three days and three nights . This was the first time I saw the arrogant Chu Kong so weak and so pale . Even though he was a woman now, I was still not used to it at all . So well behaved as he lied in bed, letting people look at him…it made me think about the time when he was Lu Hai Kong .
Very strong and yet very fragile, only letting his guard down when he was with me…even though he was a woman now . I had no idea that I would panic like that when I saw him bleed . It felt like the sky was falling down . It was my first time feeling such a strange emotion…even though the other party was a woman .
I covered my face with my hands and sighed . As if he had heard me, the person that had lied in bed for three days straight without moving suddenly groaned . I was startled; I immediately moved closer to his head and softly said, “Chu Kong, Princess Kong? Are you awake?”
His eyelids moved and with extreme difficulty, he managed to open his eyes . I stared at him, afraid that he’d lose consciousness again .
Chu Kong narrowed his eyes and stared back at me for a while . Suddenly, his eyes closed again . My heart panicked . Just now, had he used the last of his strength to see me? No, it couldn’t be! This couldn’t happen! I used my fingers to peel open his already closed eyelids . Against the whites of his eyes, I called out: “No! Don’t! Don’t die!”
“Die…‘don’t die’… You think this body can obey orders…?”
Chu Kong’s voice was hoarse and weak . His eyes rolled back to the front of his head . Finally seeing his pupils set my mind at peace . I let go of his hand, took a deep breath, and said, “When your eyes kept rolling, I was afraid that you were dying . ”
Chu Kong glanced at me and immediately turned away . His voice sounded quite disgusted as he said, “Seeing a dirty, rough man crouched by my bed the moment I wake up really sucks . ”
If he could speak with such a tone, I knew he wasn’t about to go dying on me . The big rock that had been crushing my heart finally rolled off . I didn’t care about his attitude; he could sass me all he liked and I would just be happy that he could . I sat on the bed and laughed: “It’s good that you’re alive . ”
Chu Kong’s eyebrows moved . He looked at me out of the corner of his eye .
“Were…were you really worried about me?”
“Really worried,” I confirmed .
Chu Kong didn’t say anything and buried his head under the quilt . I caught a glimpse of his ears and saw that they had turned red again . It appeared that he hadn’t expected such a straightforward answer .
I wiped away my sad tears .
“If you’re gone, who’ll run in front to block all the knives? I’ll end up dying and have to kiss Yanwang’s cheeks in the Netherworld! Hey, you’ve already kissed him . It’s terrifying to think about, right?”
The room was quiet for a while . Chu Kong pulled his head out from beneath the quilt . He glared at me and ruthlessly said, “Get out . ”
“Out to where?” Right after I asked, I suddenly realized what he must’ve meant . “Look at me being confused! I should’ve let the physician check your pulse first!”
After saying so, I squeezed Chu Kong’s hand . “I know that you’re sad about losing the child, but in life, there’s nothing that won’t pass . Every time you encounter a difficulty, just think about it as enriching our wealth . ”
I looked at Chu Kong’s pale face and thought it looked a little dark now . Well, regardless!
“You must be strong!”
Chu Kong used all his strength to pull his hand away . It trembled as he raised it and pointed at the door . Gritting his teeth, he said, “Out!”
I did as he wished and left the room, calling for Physician Zhang and several maids immediately after . I earnestly said, “The princess just lost her child . It’s inevitable that she’ll be depressed . Serve her well . ”
Even if the general’s body was made from iron, keeping watch over Chu Kong for three days without rest had been exhausting . It was straight to bed for me . I closed my eyes and tried to sleep . I could clearly hear the beating of my heart in the peaceful darkness, but instead of drifting off to its rhythm, I touched my cheek and felt its obvious heat . Looking up at the ceiling, I sighed . The situation was a bit bad, ah…
“You…were worried about me?”
“Really worried . ”
Thinking about this conversation, I couldn’t help but cover my mouth . The scene was so vivid in my head that it felt like I had just blurted it out again, but not even the palm of my hand could erase that feeling .
What was wrong with me? What went wrong?

XXZ sure knows how to break the mood (sigh) . Chu Kong is darn cute with all that blushing (I’ve a soft spot for alpha males but who are also shy hihi) .
