Quick-wearing fancy whitewashing strategy

Chapter 78
When the curtain was lifted, there was no one inside.

Chu Xia's smile froze on his face.

He stomped his feet resentfully, and said disappointedly and unwillingly, "Where's the person?"

Chu Xia looked around in his inner hall again, but he didn't see anyone.

"It's not true that you didn't come, did you? Make me happy for nothing."

After finishing speaking, Chu Xia felt that her eyes were covered by a pair of huge palms.

After Chu Xia was stunned for a while, she happily turned around and wrapped her arms around the waist of the person behind her.

"Brother Yu, you're here!"

Li Huaiyu let go of his hand, and changed to the posture of embracing Chu Xia.

He looked at Chu Xia dotingly, and said, "Miss me?"

"Think!" Chu Xia said without hesitation.

"Brother Yu," Chu Xia hooked his fingers, gently grabbed the corner of Li Huaiyu's clothes, and said with some hesitation, "Brother Yu, didn't you say that it was drugged and would only let him sleep for a few hours?"

The hostility in Li Huaiyu's eyes flashed past.

In a blink of an eye, he bowed his head tenderly and said to Chu Xia: "Well, I lied to you."

"Ah?" Chu Xia looked shocked.

"Chu Xia won't blame me, right?" Li Huaiyu said.

Chu Xia bit her lip, and said with a troubled expression: "But, but..."

"But what, huh?" Li Huaiyu deliberately let go of Chu Xia's hand, wanting to remind Chu Xia that he didn't want to talk about this topic anymore.

But this time, Chu Xia didn't notice his reaction and intention at all, but said eagerly: "But the imperial doctor said he was poisoned, if there is no antidote, he will die!"

Saying that, Chu Xia began to cry.

Li Huaiyu sighed in a low voice, reached out to wipe away the teardrops from the corners of Chu Xia's eyes, and licked them lightly on the corners of his lips.

Looking at Chu Xia, who was stunned, Li Huaiyu said in a voice that could drown someone: "Chu Xia, you are crying."

"Ah?" Chu Xia hurriedly raised her hand, and wiped it on her face indiscriminately.

Li Huaiyu stopped her movement, held her hand, stretched out the other hand, took out a handkerchief and gently wiped away her tears.

Chu Xia just stared at him blankly, "Brother Yu, you are so kind to me."

Li Huaiyu smiled gently at the right time.

"Brother Yu, can you give me the antidote?"

Li Huaiyu's smile froze, he took back the handkerchief, looked at the anxious and embarrassed Chu Xia, he no longer had the gentle expression before, and said coldly: "Chu Xia, you cried for him. Not only that, you also Beg me for him. You're in love with him, aren't you?"

"I didn't!" Chu Xia panicked, subconsciously denying it immediately.

"Since you didn't fall in love with him, why did you beg me for him?" Li Huaiyu was clearly smiling, but his smile made people feel cold all over.

Chu Xia bit her lip, "I just don't want him to die."

"No, he won't die." Li Huaiyu stretched out his hand, lovingly touching Chu Xia's face.

He will just be crazy and insane for the rest of his life, trapped in an illusion and never come out.

Thinking of how Li Huaijin would become like that in the future, Li Huaiyu smiled sincerely.

Looking at Chu Xia's suspicious eyes, Li Huaiyu raised his eyebrows, "Why, you don't believe me?"

"How come?" Chu Xia's voice was clear and loud, "I know Brother Yu will never lie to me!"

"That's right." Li Huaiyu took out a small paper bag from his arms, "This is for my free time these few days, do you like it?"

Chu Xia opened the paper bag with anticipation.

It is a wooden hairpin carved by Li Huaiyu himself, with a beautiful pattern of magnolia flowers on it.

"Wow, so beautiful, thank you Brother Yu!" Then she couldn't help tiptoeing and kissed Li Huaiyu's face.

"It's fine if you like it. I won't come to see you for a few days. Take good care of yourself."

"Yeah." Chu Xia was still playing with the hairpin with great interest, as if he had already forgotten about the antidote.

A mockery flashed in Li Huaiyu's eyes.

When he walked out of the East Palace, he immediately threw the veil into the trash.

Then, he walked to the river, scooped up water and washed his face over and over again.

　Does Li Huaiyu have the temperament of a male second?
