nebula story

Staring closely at Chesu's dark and confused eyes, he slowly said, "I promise you that you will no longer have to bow down in front of anyone on any occasion."

Staring at him with black eyes, Chesu's expression not only lacked the expected surprise, but seemed even more bewildered.

Although the fever has basically subsided, he is still ill after all, and he has read books in the study for several hours. Hearing these strange words and looking at His Highness Fern's eyes that seemed too focused and deep, he just felt that I can't turn my mind around at all.

Unexpectedly, there is no gratitude at all, and the agility and expression in his eyes just now have turned into such a sluggishness!

His Royal Highness Fern was a little annoyed. He didn't understand that just now, he had voluntarily pardoned his low status?

"Thank you yet?" The words he blurted out were words he had long been accustomed to, and he felt sick for a while, and he insisted on pointing them out?

On the face of the boy opposite, not only did he not have the surprise after waking up, but he showed a very strange expression.

Gently breaking free from the wrist of His Highness the Crown Prince, Chesu's confused eyes became clear, with a little self-mockery: Look, he knew that this His Highness, who turned his hands into clouds and covered his hands into rain, was here to amuse himself. .

Trying his best to make his expression meek and humble, he calmly knelt down again, with a blunt and cold voice: "The untouchable Chesu thanks His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"You!..." Looking at Chesu crouching at his feet in astonishment, His Highness Fern suddenly realized his fallacy.

Yes, he just promised Chesu that he would not bow down to anyone, and then ordered him to thank him again!

However, looking at Chesu's blunt body language that clearly indicated rejection, His Highness Fern still felt a sudden embarrassment.

Even if it's a slip of the tongue, even if it's a small mistake on his part, but is this person going to kneel like this with his bare feet like this, wantonly ruining his body that he's worked so hard to heal and heal?

"Stand up for me." He gritted his teeth.

Standing up silently, Chesu carefully distanced himself from him.

This small action suddenly ignited an inexplicable anger in Fern's heart.Yes, the young man in front of him has always used such small tricks in an attempt to keep the distance with himself forever, whether it is body or mind!

As long as it is facing him, he will always be like a little ostrich clutching his head and shrinking into the sand dunes, just pointing his ass at him!

And he is really impatient and tolerant, come to indulge this guy and turn a blind eye to himself!

Grabbing Chesu's wrist coldly, his eyes shimmered: "You just said thank you, but do you know what you are thanking?!"

"I don't know." Wei Wei answered bluntly, Chesu lowered his eyes.

have no idea?The dangerous light in His Highness Fern's eyes became brighter, and he stared coldly at the forbearing young man in front of him: "Chesu, I know you are stupid enough sometimes, so I forgive you for being dull this time."

He said word by word: "I'll give you one last chance, think it through before answering me—do you understand what you want to thank me for?"

Frowning his beautiful and delicate eyebrows, Chesu's nose was slightly sweating.The bruise on the wrist under the sleeve of the shirt has not disappeared, and now this extremely annoying His Royal Highness is holding the wound tightly, and the pain is excruciating.

Not daring to struggle too disrespectfully, he quietly struggled back a few times, but he still couldn't escape Fern's shackle-like wrist.

Angry and annoyed in his heart, he stared at Fern, with the other free hand under the cover of his sleeve, and finally couldn't help but secretly gestured at the noble prince with his middle finger.

Continuing to hold him tightly coldly, His Royal Highness Fern looked at him with an expression like a young lion king who has already approached his prey to a dead end: "If you don't understand it, you will never have to thank me for this question."

Chesu's heart shook, and he finally vaguely understood the huge temptation and cold threat from the imperial prince in front of him. Looking at Fern, his breathing suddenly became short of breath.

finally understood?Fern's eyes were deep, looking at Chesu's dazed expression.

Come on, give me an unguarded smile like so many people do, or just take that book out of your hands, with a happy and smart twinkle in your eyes, without bowing down, Don't be alienated, just say thank you to me sincerely!

After waiting for what seemed like an eternity, His Royal Highness Fern still did not receive the sincere thanks he had imagined.

Looking at Chesu again with eyes full of impatience and threat, he stared at his partner who was no longer willing to let go, but he didn't know that there was more eagerness in his eyes.

"...Your Highness, I really don't know what you want me to thank you for?" Chesu slowly raised his head, looking directly at the tall and powerful His Royal Highness Fern in front of him.

Although he strongly felt that the proud prince was exuding a danger that could erupt at any time, even though he knew that once he said these words, he would completely eliminate the last possibility of him getting rid of his status as a pariah, he still had a little anger in his heart, Forcing him to spit out some kind of ridicule: "Your Highness, please rest assured. Your Highness Lance has asked me, if one day you really need to go to the battlefield, I must cooperate with you to ensure your safety. ——I promised him .”

His face changed slightly, and Fern's eyes turned cold: "Can you talk about the main point?"

"I just want to say, Your Highness, you don't have to be extra kind to me, and I will definitely do my best."

The air flow in the study, after all, condensed because of this sentence.Staring at Chesu stiffly, His Highness Fern couldn't tell whether he was more disappointed or more angry.

"I want to pardon your lowly status. In your opinion, is it just because I want to appease you and hope that you will try your best to be loyal out of gratitude?" He asked in a deep voice.

Otherwise, why would it be?Or it was because of his own honorable face of the imperial prince!

Looking at him indifferently, Chesu looked at His Highness Fern calmly: "Your Highness, you really don't have to care about my identity so much."

"I didn't care!" His Highness Fern gritted his teeth, and quietly clenched his fists—damn, besides this person in front of him, is there anything else that he can punch hard to vent his anger?

Chesu looked at him strangely, with curiosity and puzzlement in his big dark eyes: "Then what are you struggling with? Look - if I am worthy to stand by your side, then no matter whether it is a pariah or an aristocrat, Chesu It’s all just Chesu.”

Staring at him closely, Fern squeezed his wrist hard, and pulled hard towards his chest!

"You!..." Before he could continue, Chesu's face changed, and he took a breath. He bit his lips tightly, and looked at the wrist that was tightly held by Fern.

Noticing his strangeness, His Royal Highness Fern also looked suspiciously at the place where he was caught, and then thought of something vaguely.

As if being burned by fire, he quickly let go of Chesu's hand, stretched out his hand and opened the loose sleeve.

The wrist injury that was originally covered with bruises had already been applied by the doctor with a cooling ointment that dissipated blood stasis, wrapped in a thin layer of gauze, and hidden under a very fine shirt. He was impatient and did not notice it in time .

Chesu's skin is thin and fair, a little force can leave some marks, but at this time, the outer edge of the gauze, a few new handprints began to glow a faint blue color.

Silently looking down at the traces that were obviously left by him, His Highness Fern's face became extremely ugly.Without saying anything, his tall and straight body stood by the desk in a stiff posture.

After a long time, he slowly helped Chesu put down his light white sleeves, looked up at Chesu's alienated and forbearing expression, and sighed softly in his heart.

Without letting the sigh spread in the air in the form of any sound waves, he looked deeply at Chesu: "...Go back and rest, it's really late."

Lowering her head, Chesu quietly hooked the slipper she had unknowingly thrown far under the desk.Seeing that His Highness Fern was still staring at him, he hesitated for a moment. He tentatively picked up the thick "History of Mecha Evolution of the Empire through the Ages" on the desk, and hugged it tightly in his arms.

Raising his eyebrows, Fern looked at him: "Want to take it home and watch it all night?"

Nodding slightly, Chesu stared nervously at his face.

His Royal Highness Fern frowned, feeling troubled in his heart: He knew that if he really allowed him to take this tome away, the lights in the bedroom would never go out overnight!

Last night, I was so dazed with fever that I dared to tell myself to go away, but today I just got better, and I started messing with my body!

He stretched out his hand, but his tone was very strong: "Give it to me."

Chesu hugged the book tightly, like a bird tightly guarding the food he just found, and couldn't help blurting out: "Look, read it and it won't get old..."

Angry and funny at the same time, Fern stared at him, look at those eyes!Watery, like a black pearl in white mercury, full of childlike hope.

It took a lot of effort to hold his face, and Fern continued to stretch out his hand.

Chesu fell silent, and sullenly handed over the heavy tome.

He made sure once again that His Royal Highness is a very annoying and stingy person. It's just a mecha history, and it's not a secret!

Besides, is the latest new imperial mecha a secret again in his eyes?

Taking the book and holding it in his hand, His Royal Highness Fern looked at Chesu's blushing face because he dared not speak out, and twitched his mouth: "From now on, I will sleep until nine o'clock in the morning before getting up, and I will never wake up before eleven o'clock in the evening. Go to bed. If you want to read, only during the day."

Reading is only allowed during the day?Looking at him hesitantly, and then peeking at the book in his hand, Chesu's eyes seemed to light up a little.

Fern weighed the book in his hand, and finally looked at Chesu seriously, with an unnaturally gentle look in his eyes: "It's too heavy. To express my apology for hurting you again, I will deliver it to you." Next to your pillow."

Following Fern quietly, Chesu returned to the bedroom.

Along the way, the long corridor was brightly lit, reflecting two shadows, one in front of the other and the back in harmony.The corridor is covered with a thick woven wool carpet, and the sound of footsteps can hardly be heard.

There was no tit-for-tat confrontation, no suspicion or sarcasm from each other, His Royal Highness Fern's keen hearing caught the people who quietly followed him behind him, and suddenly felt that the path from the study to the bedroom seemed extremely short.

Pushing open the door of the bedroom, His Royal Highness Fern walked in. There were two maids changing the sheets in the room. Seeing the two coming in, Aisha and her companions hurriedly moved.

After the bedding was made quickly, Aisha put a few pills in the medicine box by the water glass next to the bed, and then bowed and retreated with her companions.

Obediently swallowing the pill, Chesu watched Fern put down the book while sitting at the desk not far away in doubt.

Stealing a glance at the clock on the wall: Ah, it's already eleven o'clock!Thinking of the time limit Fern had set with a straight face just now, he sat down on the side of the bed resentfully.

But... why is this strange crown prince staring at him so straightly?Is it really necessary to make sure that he falls asleep on time according to his regulations before he is willing to leave?

Questioning sullenly in his heart, Chesu hesitated for a moment, stretched out his hand to the button on his chest and slowly put it down, raised his head and looked at the young man in front of the desk who had no intention of leaving at all.

"Your Highness?..." He lowered his head and whispered, "I'm going to bed. Don't you need to leave early to rest?"

Looking at the big bed where Chesu was sitting, His Highness Fern suddenly froze.

Frowning slowly, he looked at the bed with a strange expression, and then at the sofa on the other side.

...yes, it's bedtime.

Unlike the drowsiness of the previous two nights, the young man in front of him was conscious and clear-eyed, and he no longer needed his nearby protection and care.

But... where did he sleep tonight?That was where he was used to sleeping!

His head began to hurt faintly, and His Royal Highness Fern fell into an unprecedented conflict.

Now step forward and drive Chesu away?Why don't you drive him away and continue curling up on the sofa in front of Chesu? ...Or just go there and lie down with the innocent boy occupying his bed? !

Sitting stiffly in front of the desk, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who had slept in this room for more than ten years, finally stood up slowly, turned around and walked out of his luxurious bedroom without saying a word.Standing in the corridor, he looked around and beckoned reluctantly to the maid waiting in the distance.

His Royal Highness Fern's cold ordering voice was a little imperceptibly distressed: "Prepare me the guest room next door, I will sleep there tonight."

……

Sahua, someone finished sleeping on the sofa and changed to the guest room...
