Blame the Villain – Chapter 144

Villainous Fake Eunuch (21)

Song Xuyi, trembling, tightly closed her eyes, not daring to open them at all.

However, because her eyes were closed, her hearing became particularly sensitive. Song Xuyi heard the rustling of clothing behind the screen and guessed that Gu Ruyu was putting on clothes. When the sound of rustling clothes disappeared and could no longer be heard, the surroundings became extremely quiet, so quiet that she could hear the sound of water droplets falling into the hot spring pool—

Song Xuyi, with her eyes tightly closed, felt that time passed incredibly slowly. After probably a few minutes, thinking that Gu Ruyu should have already put on her clothes, Song Xuyi quietly opened her eyes. Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened her eyes, she was met with Gu Ruyu’s gaze at close range.

Probably because she had just soaked in the hot spring, Gu Ruyu’s face had a slight blush. Her originally fair and delicate skin appeared even more flawless, and her jet-black eyes stared motionlessly at Song Xuyi, their depths filled with various hues. For a moment, it was completely impossible to discern her emotions.

Song Xuyi’s heart trembled, and she did not dare to meet Gu Ruyu’s gaze. Instinctively, she lowered her head and then saw Gu Ruyu’s cherry-like rosy lips, her perfectly small chin, her exquisite slender collarbone, and…

Song Xuyi uncontrollably blushed and closed her eyes again—although Gu Ruyu had put on clothes, they were not worn properly, loosely revealing most of her white-as-jade shoulder. What flustered Song Xuyi even more was that Gu Ruyu had not worn the thin pieces on her chest, and Song Xuyi could clearly see the shape of Gu Ruyu’s chest.

Were her eyes not yet healed? Is that why she left such a big flaw?

However, Gu Ruyu’s cold gaze did not look at all like someone whose eyes were not healed…

Song Xuyi felt somewhat anxious but did not know how to hint to Gu Ruyu that she had already exposed herself, leaving her mind in a state of chaos.

However, before Song Xuyi had time to think of an idea to alert Gu Ruyu, Gu Ruyu’s hand pinched Song Xuyi’s chin, and her slender fingers ambiguously rubbed twice on Song Xuyi’s chin, half-forcing Song Xuyi to raise her head again.

Gu Ruyu squinted her eyes, and because of this action, the red mole at the corner of her eye looked increasingly fresh and charming, making her whole appearance even more compelling.

Gu Ruyu carefully scrutinized Song Xuyi’s expression, her red lips slightly curved, but her eyes showed no smile. She spoke in a lightly mocking female voice: “The princess is about to become the prince’s consort and rise to power, so she is unwilling to even look at this servant now?”

“What a pity!” Gu Ruyu’s lips curved deeper, and her gaze became increasingly cold: “Now the time has already passed, Zhao Qin has probably already replaced your princess identity and replaced you at the frontier with Zheng Lian, living together—”

Song Xuyi widened her eyes, not expecting that two days had already passed, and she still could not understand why Gu Ruyu had brought her here—Song Xuyi had already given the booklet recording military strategy to Zhao Qin, so whether Song Xuyi went or not actually didn’t matter. It’s just… Gu Ruyu said Zhao Qin had replaced her identity at this time, and Gu Ruyu’s wings were not yet fully grown. Doing such an action under the emperor’s eyes, once discovered by the emperor, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Even though she was in a different position from Gu Ruyu, Song Xuyi did not want to see Gu Ruyu get into trouble.

“Chief Eunuch Gu, you are presumptuous! You commit the crime of deceiving the emperor; are you not afraid of His Majesty’s blame?”

Song Xuyi mustered her courage, raised her head, and tried to put on an overbearing appearance, directly looking into Gu Ruyu’s eyes, striving to make Gu Ruyu realize the seriousness of the matter: “As long as you quietly send me back, I will pretend as if nothing happened!”

However, Song Xuyi’s outwardly strong but inwardly weak rebuke did not scare Gu Ruyu; instead, it made Gu Ruyu’s gaze even colder.

“If this servant daringly insists on detaining the princess, what will the princess do?” Gu Ruyu sneered, tightening her hand on Song Xuyi’s chin, approaching Song Xuyi’s cheek, her eyes somewhat dangerous: “Does the princess so want to accompany Zheng Lian?”

The distance between the two was truly too close; Song Xuyi could smell the familiar fragrance emanating from Gu Ruyu. The light breath brushed Song Xuyi’s cheek, with Gu Ruyu’s crimson lips less than a finger’s width from Song Xuyi’s cheek; Song Xuyi even had an illusion: as if in the next moment, Gu Ruyu would kiss her!

And because Gu Ruyu leaned in, her already loose clothes fell even more, and Song Xuyi could clearly see some obvious contours…

In this state, Gu Ruyu looked both dangerous and alluring, truly too beautiful!

Being watched by Gu Ruyu’s pair of jet-black eyes, Song Xuyi’s face unconsciously turned red, her heart uncontrollably sped up, as if it was about to jump out of her chest—

“I am not doing this for the Third Prince,” Song Xuyi took a deep breath, finally sensing the suppressed anger in Gu Ruyu, and not daring to continue pretending to be angry and clash head-on with her. She immediately tried to make amends and began to soothe Gu Ruyu, softening her voice: “Ruyu, I am worried about you. I know you mean well and didn’t want me to suffer at the frontier, which is why you brought me here. But I have already implicated you many times, and I don’t want you to face the emperor’s punishment because of me again—”

Gu Ruyu’s face remained cold, yet Song Xuyi keenly noticed that the aggressive aura around Gu Ruyu seemed to have diminished somewhat.

“And also, as a princess of the He Kingdom, supported by the people’s taxes, I also want to contribute to the people.” Song Xuyi knew the soothing method worked and was determined to continue. Trembling, she reached out her hand to hold Gu Ruyu’s hand that was pinching her chin, directly looking into Gu Ruyu’s eyes, and softly spoke: “Ruyu, I am a member of the Song family, and Song family members do not avoid the battlefield!”

Song Xuyi felt that Gu Ruyu would understand, as Gu Ruyu once had a betrothal with this body’s second brother and should understand the Song family better than anyone.

Song Xuyi looked into Gu Ruyu’s eyes, and sure enough, Gu Ruyu’s eyes had already lost their initial coldness. Her red lips were slightly pressed as if contemplating something, and Song Xuyi’s heart relaxed, thinking she had persuaded Gu Ruyu. Yet unexpectedly, in the next moment, Gu Ruyu’s hand that was pinching Song Xuyi’s chin loosened, but instead, it touched Song Xuyi’s face—

“Why is the princess blushing?”

“This room is too hot!” This question jumped too quickly, and Song Xuyi was stunned for a moment, not expecting Gu Ruyu to ask this question. She guiltily avoided eye contact, but the temperature on her cheeks became hotter…

However, as soon as Song Xuyi turned away, Gu Ruyu instinctively extended another hand to embrace Song Xuyi’s waist, pulling her into her arms, their bodies almost pressed closely together—

“Really?”

Gu Ruyu asked with a low counter-question, but then began to laugh, her mood seeming to become extremely good at that moment. She lowered her head, as if to verify, slowly stroking Song Xuyi’s flushed cheeks. Seeing Song Xuyi’s cheeks turn red and her appearing extremely obedient in her embrace, Gu Ruyu slowly exhaled, feeling that the anger lingering in her heart these past few days finally dissipated a bit.

Gu Ruyu knew that her side was hell, that what she was about to do would be condemned by thousands, and even in the process, she might lose her life. Originally, feeling that she couldn’t give Song Xuyi happiness, after realizing her own feelings, Gu Ruyu planned to distance herself from Song Xuyi and secretly ensure her safety and happiness.

However, after noticing the tacit understanding between Song Xuyi and Zhao Qin, Gu Ruyu found herself unable to stop the growing bitterness in her heart…

Could someone like herself really, as planned, watch Xuyi be with someone else?

For the first time in her life, Gu Ruyu began to question her own decision.

And then, the mudslide made Gu Ruyu completely realize her own heart: at the moment she thought Xuyi was buried by the mudslide, Gu Ruyu felt unprecedented panic and extremely regretted her distance from Xuyi during this time, only wanting to keep Song Xuyi forever confined by her side…

From the moment Xuyi reappeared by her side, Gu Ruyu made the decision: Xuyi is hers.

Gu Ruyu understood better than anyone what Song Xuyi cared about, and everything Song Xuyi cared about was contrary to Gu Ruyu’s plan…

(If you're not reading on littlepandatranslations.com, it means this has been stolen)

Gu Ruyu does not like this world—this world is full of scheming, those in power are selfish and stubborn, indulging in pleasure, and the people are numb and submissive. This decaying country has already started to rot from the root.

Moreover, Gu Ruyu once wanted to single-handedly destroy this world and had made a plan: to incite internal chaos in the He Kingdom, so that the covetous foreign enemies would naturally seize the opportunity to invade. When the emperor and the foreign enemies were both weakened, she would then reap the benefits and completely eliminate these two scourges, rebuilding a new order on the ruins.

Gu Ruyu knew that in this plan many people would die, but Gu Ruyu did not care; those who achieve great things do not worry about trifles, and she had long since become accustomed to bloodshed.

However, Xuyi cared—

Xuyi had compassion for all the people, willing to risk herself, and when facing the weak, her eyes held the most beautiful warm sunlight.

Gu Ruyu does not want the warm sunlight in Song Xuyi’s eyes to extinguish.

Gu Ruyu still does not like this world.

But for Xuyi, she is willing to try to accept this world and slowly change it, so that Xuyi can peacefully and happily stay by her side.

Thus, Gu Ruyu left Song Xuyi an obscure letter and began to make new arrangements. She did not expect Xuyi to reply, yet instinctively felt extremely joyful because of Xuyi’s reply: as long as she received Xuyi’s letter, even if it contained only a few words, Gu Ruyu felt full of energy…

Gu Ruyu originally wanted to slowly pursue Song Xuyi, but the emperor’s sudden decree disrupted her plans, and what made Gu Ruyu even angrier was that Xuyi did not refuse, nor did she seek help from her—

What if Xuyi never likes her?

What if the emperor bestows Xuyi in marriage to Zheng Lian?

……

She and Song Xuyi are naturally meant to be together. As the only remaining members of the Song and Liu families, with Song Xuyi’s second brother gone, the marriage contract naturally falls on Song Xuyi. No one can separate her and Xuyi!

An angry Gu Ruyu couldn’t help but abduct Song Xuyi.

She originally thought Xuyi would be angry, would be hysterical, yet didn’t expect Xuyi to still be concerned about her at this time…

The hostility in her heart vanished completely at this moment. Gu Ruyu looked at Song Xuyi’s shy cheeks, her heart stirred slightly, and she made a decision.

Song Xuyi did not know Gu Ruyu’s inner thoughts.

The two people’s breaths intertwined, and in front of Song Xuyi was Gu Ruyu’s disheveled collar, certain views faintly visible between the collar. Song Xuyi felt almost suffocated, her back soaked in sweat, and finally couldn’t help but close her eyes and speak: “Ruyu, I’m embarrassed! Men and women should not touch; can you let me go…”

“Men and women should not touch?” Song Xuyi originally thought Gu Ruyu would notice her chest without wearing the thin piece, yet didn’t expect to hear Gu Ruyu sneer: “Even if I am frivolous with you, so what?”

Facing Song Xuyi’s wide eyes, Gu Ruyu pressed against Song Xuyi’s nose tip, word by word, leisurely spoke: “The cloth strip I use to bind my chest is always tied with a special method. After the carriage fell off the cliff and I woke up feverish, I found my clothes disheveled, and the cloth strip used another tying method. Xuyi, you tell me what is going on?”

(If you're not reading on littlepandatranslations.com, it means this has been stolen)

Song Xuyi didn’t expect to reveal a flaw so early, couldn’t help but widen her eyes, not understanding the meaning of Gu Ruyu bringing up this matter, yet due to the ambiguous posture of the two at this time, instinctively leaned back—

Gu Ruyu lightened the force binding Song Xuyi’s waist. Song Xuyi exerted too much force and fell back onto the jade bed, yet didn’t expect Gu Ruyu to immediately lean over, eyes tightly shut, facing Song Xuyi’s incredulous eyes, and lightly planted a kiss on Song Xuyi’s forehead.

“Xuyi, I like you!”

“One month,” Song Xuyi could not see Gu Ruyu’s expression, but saw Gu Ruyu’s equally translucent and red earlobe by her cheek. Gu Ruyu leaned to Song Xuyi’s ear, her hoarse voice like a bewitching low tone: “Xuyi, as long as you accompany me for one month, I will, as you wish, protect Zheng Lian and Zhao Qin’s lives, and try to kill the dog emperor without shedding blood…”

“How about it?”


The author has something to say:

Good night, kisses.
