Rebirth As a Fatuous and Self-indulgent Ruler
chapter-199

Long didn’t want to be so ruthless, but he had to do it for the sake of their future.

With the lips trembling, Shi deeply closed his eyes and spat out several words, “Long, you win.”

Hearing this, Long was almost moved to tears.

“My apology, Qingzhou.”

Shi shook his head slightly, “You’re right. I couldn’t be defeated by the murderous intent, otherwise, I’m not Shi Qingzhou anymore.”

Long stretched out his hand and touched Shi’s leg with difficulty.

“Qingzhou, no matter what you become, you are the one I love. I just don’t want you to be enslaved and controlled by the murderous intent. In that case, you won’t be able to face what you did when you recover.”

By now, Shi had understood what Long did and thought were truly and completely for his own good.

Just for Shi Qingzhou himself.

Having mixed feeling, Shi was speechless. He could only take off his clothes slowly at last.

Long was stunned, wondering what Shi intended to do and guessing if Shi tried to make it up to him now.

After a short while, Long found he thought too much again. Because Shi didn’t have any movement except lying down after taking off his clothes.

Long looked at Shi helplessly, “Qingzhou, you… won’t do something?’

Shi blinked, “What should I do?”

Long, “… ”

Staring at Shi, Long had no choice but to believe Shi really doesn’t intend to do anything…

With corners of the mouth twitched, Long said unwillingly, “Nothing. Qingzhou… let’s go to sleep.”

“Hmm.” Shi nodded gently, then closed his eyes.

Sighing in his heart, Long felt relieved a lot.

After a while, Long fell asleep.

Then, Shi slightly put his palm on Long’s back and conveyed great warmth to Long’s body.

Shi knew Long felt uncomfortable, so he used his internal force to relieve Long’s discomfort.

Without feeling cold , Long fell into a dead sleep.

On the next day, Long felt refreshed when waking up.

Long knew this was definitely attributed to his lover.

Seeing Shi not lying beside him, Long felt a little worried, then got out of the bed.

At the moment, Liu walked inside with a bowl of medicine.

“Eh? Are you awake?” Liu Smiled.

Long nodded, “Hmm. What are you doing here?”

Rolling his eyes, Liu was speechless, “What do you think? I’m a doctor. Who should come except me?”

Hearing this, Long just blinked his eyes, then directly asked, “Where is my Qingzhou?”

“Well, I know he belongs to you.” Liu walked to the bed sourly and put the bowl down, “Take the medicine. Your Qingzhou is busy now.”

“Eh?” Long frowned, “What is he busy with?”

“What do you think?” Liu grinned, “Guess.”

Long squinted at Liu, “Are you bored?”

Liu curled his lips, “Alright, you know what? Your Qingzhou was practicing martial arts.”

“Eh?” Long was stunned as if he did not expect such an answer, “Practicing martial arts?”

“Yes, you can go have a look.”

Long became a little interested. He asked after taking the medicine, “Am I alright to get out?”

Liu laughed, “Of course. I had detoxified you very early.”

Hearing this, Long felt relieved, “That’s good.”

Then, Long walked outside.

Long recovered well but was still not as vigorous as usual, so he didn’t walk fast.

When Long walked out of the room, he saw Shi practicing martial arts.

Long thought the way his Qingzhou practiced the sword was still as beautiful as before, but some homicidal intent was probably revealed.

Long was tranced while appreciating Shi.

A moment later, Shi stopped practicing the sword. He put away the sword, and then walked to Long.

Long watched Shi walk close to him, “Zhou.”

Shi nodded, “Hmm, you are awake?”

“Yes.” Long looked at Shi with curiosity, “Qingzhou, why do you practice the sword?”

Shi answered after pausing a while, “There’s a swordsmanship which is helpful to restrain the murderous intent.”

Long was stunned, then got it immediately.

To Long’s great surprise, Shi was so frank about the murderous intent. Shi… seemed to change a little.

“Qingzhou… ”

Shi walked to stand beside Long as if he didn’t say anything, “Let’s go back to the room. I could cook breakfast for you.”

Long murmured, “Okay.”

Long found that his Qingzhou… was very peaceful today.

Even the eyes were not cold any more…

The way Shi spoke was extremely peaceful.

Long followed Shi to go inside in a daze. Then Shi went to prepare the breakfast.

At this moment, Liu chuckled, “Surprised?”

Long nodded greatly, “Of course. What’s going on?”

Liu smiled, “Your contribution.”

Long was astonished, then changed his countenance, “What I did yesterday… made him change so much?”

This great change was probably good for Shi. But Long felt his heart ached as if his heart was teared…

Noticing Long’s change in countenance, Liu sighed.

“Don’t think too much. It is a good thing.”

With his lips puckered, Long didn’t respond.

Seeing Long’s reaction, Liu could only say, “Believe me, it is good for him.”

Liu didn’t stay there longer before leaving.

It was indeed a good thing. But the thought of the person involved also mattered.

Long kept silent after Liu left. He knew it was a good thing, but still couldn’t help thinking his Qingzhou paid a too high price.

Long wondered what he did and said probably made a great strike to Shi.

His Qingzhou… Long clenched his fists tightly.

What’s done was done, and thinking too much was also useless.

If he felt aching and guilty, he should treat Shi much better.

Liu was right that it was a good thing…
