Enchantress Amongst Alchemists: Ghost King's Wife
chapter-579

“Mu Er…”

His voice that was trembling slightly was low and hoarse. His purple eyes focused on her, unable to shift his gaze away.

Their gazes met and Mu Ru Yue’s expression changed from one that was surprised to elated. But before she could call out her man’s name, the other gradually collapsed to the ground.

“Wu Chen!”

Mu Ru Yue hastily pushed Mo Xi aside and moved in a couple of flashes to her man, catching his falling body.

She placed her fingers gently on the man’s pulse. She then raised her eyelashes and commented softly, “He had use all of his energies soaring through the sky to reach here. In addition from his overwhelming sorrow to the sudden surprise, it made him lose his consciousness. Wu Chen, I’m sorry. I’ve made you worry again…”

She was too careless this time.

But Ouyang Yun Jin also didn’t tell her the current circumstances of the Ouyang family. If not, how could she sent both Xiao Yue and Xiao Bai away…

Mu Ru Yue brushed her fingers gently against the man’s hair. His lips was pigmentless and uneasiness was expressed even when he was unconscious.

It would be seen how despaired he was to the point that he lost consciousness…

✶

The night was as tranquil as water.

The man’s hair spreaded on the bed under the moonlight. His expression was filled with worries. He also had a complexion as pale as a ghost with unease expressed with his tightly creased eyebrows.

“Mu Er!”

The man suddenly opened his eyes. His purple eyes was bloodshot with boundless sorrow and despair in them…

He was stunned when his gaze fixed onto the figure by his side.

That face belonged to the person that he had frequently thought about in this year. Moreover, she appeared full of vitality before him.

However, he had clearly felt her presence disappeared. What was going on then?

Perhaps… this was just a dream.

If this was one, he was willing to be in it all his life and eternity just to stay by her side…

“Wu Chen,” Mu Ru Yue held his ice-cold hand and asked, “Are you alright? Do you know you almost scared me to death by collapsing so suddenly?”

‘No!

‘This isn’t a dream…

‘Mu Er is really before him!’

The man suddenly held her hand before pulling her roughly onto the bed. He then turned their bodies so that he would be on top of Mu Ru Yue before kissing her lips…

Mu Ru Yue’s body stiffened.

It was due to her being able to feel that the man’s lip was shivering and… a ice-cold liquid landed on her face.

“Wu Chen…”

“Mu Er,” Ye Wu Chen shifted his lips away from hers before lowering his head to look at the girl beneath him as he continued, “I will never leave your side again. I don’t want to experience what I did today again.”

He closed his eyes lightly…

His heart shuddered tremendously when he thought back on that instant where he couldn’t feel her presence. He similarly experienced an unprecedented despair…

So that was how despair felt…

“Wu Chen, I’m sorry. I made you worry.” Mu Ru Yue’s eyelashes trembled slightly as she focused on the gravely pale complexion of the man before her and smiled.

This man was noble and powerful, but he was still one that knew fear and feared like an ordinary person before her now.

It would be unforgettable to her that her man’s lips trembled while he kissed her. The heavens would know what crazy actions her man that loved her like his life would adopt if she really died…

Ye Wu Chen lifted his arms to pull Mu Ru Yue into his embrace, hugging her tightly. She was like a treasure that he had lost but had regained, making him fear that she would disappear again…
