Repairing the Past

Chapter 58

"WHATAAA?" Fu Bai's shout blared around the nature pavilion.

The cherry blossom youth had to swallow a bitter pill when he found out that his adopted sister, Fu Hua, had slept one roof together with the emperor's noble.

Fu Rong closed his ears. Fu Bai's tirade had him poultice out of his head. His older brother was indeed a member of the corrupt sect throughout history.

Since returning from the royal medical center this morning, Fu Rong had been made dizzy by Fu Bai's endless barrage of questions and scolding.

The young man was as if a beard fire heard news of Chu Yao being deliberately transferred by his imperial highness to his private room.

Even though Fu Rong had told him the real reason, the young man was still lulled in his drama.

"How could you let two people of different genders of mature age be in one room together?! Xiao Rong's! You disappointed me!" Fu Bai said frantically and walked back and forth in front of Fu Rong.

"Don't overdo it!" Fu Rong replied in an exasperated tone, "is it that the noble one is blind to attack the brutal elder sister Hua so? Stop thinking no-no!"

"You underestimated my anxiety, Xiao Rong!" Cut off Fu Bai who still seemed anxious with his increasingly rampant absurd thoughts.

"What I'm worried about isn't just that girl! But more so for the emperor. I'm afraid Xiao Hua can't believe seeing that handsome man. And finally can't bear to do things beyond reason.."

Chu Yao who had since stood behind the door, frowned at the useless conversation of the two foster brothers.

Instead of bumping into the two, Chu Yao actually went back to listening with both hands crossed over her chest.

"The girl is old. Already ready to marry, but having to stay so long in a corner of the area that almost does not show a handsome man, will not his soul be thrashed once faced with the emperor's beautiful face?"

Huh huh? Older-aged?

Fucking Fu Bai! Like talking.

"Yes, yes, yes, there were no good-looking men while we lived there. You're one of them too. " Cut Chu Yao who was already unable to bear Fu Bai's excessive mannerisms.

"Xiao Hua's! You're so mean. This brother of yours is a perfect sculpture of the masterpiece of the heavenly god goddess. This true beauty is the only thing in the world. You don't realize it." Said Fu Bai who immediately took out a mirror inside his sleeves.

Fu Rong scratched his non-itchy head then asked Chu Yao, "forget this crazy man! How is the noble condition now?"

"Just the same." Chu Yao replied briefly and then turned to the narcissistic man beside her, "Fu Bai, what about you? Have you found a way to heal your majesty?"

Fu Bai turned his head towards Chu Yao and placed the mirror back into his sleeve.

"There is no other way than to suppress it with other poisons or acupuncture alone. But even that wouldn't be good if it was done for a long period of time." Fu Bai replied with a headband.

He added, "I have not been able to solve the theory of the unification of the poison experienced by the noble. If I've solved it, maybe a cure can be found soon."

Chu Yao thought for a moment, "have you heard of the poison removal method and the immortal light leaf?"

Fu Bai let go of his casual attitude and looked at Chu Yao with great seriousness. The look in his eyes said that this was the first time he had heard the two things that the girl had mentioned to him.

Chu Yao felt a little hesitant to speak, it was just that she had no other choice to pave the path of treatment for Mo Yan.

"It seems that the noble did the method so as to cause the unification of the poison in his body.. "

"..But the only medicine that can offer such poison is only a perennial leaf of light that has not been discovered in the past century."

"Where do you know that?" Fu Bai asked with suspicion.

Chu Yao sighed, "you will know my background first. No need to explain at length. You just need to ask how the poison removal process was done to your highness."

"You mean, you want to transfer a noble poison to someone else?"

"That's the only path we have right now."

Chu Yao rose from that place and chimed back in, "i must return immediately before your majesty finishes her meeting with the prime minister."

"You better ask your highness directly as soon as possible, " Imbuh Chu Yao with great pressure, "don't you ever tell me if you know that information from me. Otherwise, I'll take out all your entrails and dry them out to be the animal meal out there!"

"It's sad." Fu Rong muttered while swallowing the saliva.

Chu Yao gave no response and disappeared behind the doors of the nature pavilion.

On the other hand, it seemed that no one could oppose Mo Yan's decision to end the meeting.

The silent man not only made everyone who was there agree to all his plans without being able to give the slightest rebuttal. But it also has a pressure that makes their adrenaline race quickly.

Mo Yan walked out of that meeting room with a masculine gesture. Making Shen Xue Ying who was deliberately waiting outside gasp and fall in love with him even more.

The woman bent her knees and gave a salute to the gentle voice that was lurking.

Mo Yan did not care. Not even looking at all that makes the woman more challenged and move aggressively.

Gathering all his courage, Shen Xue Ying intercepted Mo Yan's footsteps and invited the man to speak for a moment.

"How is noble health? I heard that your highness must be taken care of personally by Miss Fu. I'm sorry if I can only see your Majesty now." Shen Xue Ying said with a timid expression.

"In exchange I brought you a hundred-year-old ginseng. May it make your majesty healthy and long life."

A personal servant of Shen Xue Ying handed A black box to A-Wei who was standing behind the emperor.

Without giving any response, Mo Yan again straightened his gaze and walked past the pink-clothed woman.

But suddenly Fu Bai appeared and again stopped Mo Yan's footsteps.

"You're back?" Asked Mo Yan in a flat tone.

Fu Bai bowed his body and saluted, "It's already a noble one. It's just that there's something I'd like to convey personally with your majesty."

Mo Yan glanced at A-Wei and the bodyguard emptied the place in an instant.

"Say!"

Fu Bai thought about stringing up the words, "if allowed, may I know how noble the poison removal process is?"

Mo Yan's eyes instantly tapered and stared intently at Fu Bai. With just one move, Mo Yan's palm was already on the man's neck with an active predatory instinct.

Making the people standing far away across them feel a strong aura of intimidation from the energy Mo Yan unleashed.

***

From behind the thick bulkhead, Chu Yao fixed her sitting position when she heard the clattering of footsteps that were almost half-running from the corridor of the emperor's personal pavilion.

The door creaked and gave off a 'Shelf!' sound!' which isn't so hard.

Chu Yao waited. But there was no continuation of the sound of the door being closed just now.

A few minutes, he was still waiting and finally straightened his back to check on the situation behind the barrier that bound him.

The room is empty. Silent and desolate. There was only her standing upright in the middle of the spacious room.

"Your highness?" Call Chu Yao while surrounding the gaze in all directions. But there was no sign of anyone else there.

Chu Yao called back, and again the result was the same.

When he opened his mouth to make a louder call, there was suddenly an attack from someone dressed in all black with his face covered completely from behind.

Chu Yao's reflexes arose by itself. He took out the daggers in both hands then stood up in a standby position.

No one talks to each other. It is only the attitude of attacking each other that they see.

Chu Yao leaped as the black-clothed man moved forward with his sword. Switch to the right side and then move to the left side.

As soon as Chu Yao wanted to give an attack, the foreign man could always endure it. The attacks were diverted to any place to make most of the goods there become damaged.

The woman scrunched her eyebrows. He began to realize something strange.

Why did the man just smash every object on his side? Though the man had plenty of opportunities to paralyze his movements?

Chu Yao stopped trying. He feels being played. With a sour face he threw the dagger down the foot of the man dressed in black.

"Stop making damage! Tell me what you want, A-Wei?!"

The man opened his head and said, "miss recognizes me, my task is done."

A-Wei leapt towards the garden beside the room and then disappeared as it was swallowed by smoke before Chu Yao could speak.

Chu Yao scratched her non-itchy cheeks. The annoyance of being left behind just made the woman take a deep breath. He took the dagger he threw, but a hairpin fell with him.

A large hand that Chu Yao was familiar with had already grabbed the hairpin first. Although he had not seen who in front of him, Chu Yao seemed to already know the form of that person there. He swallowed the saliva as he turned his face and found Mo Yan standing right in front of him.

Chu Yao suddenly could not move. His hands clenched firmly beside his body as the man approached.

"Let me put it on." Whisper Mo Yan while putting that thing right above her hair ties.

"That hairpin reminds me of the same hairpin I once gave to first lady Chu.. "

"It's very unlikely that it's on anyone else.. Is there nothing you want to explain to me, Chu Yao?"

As soon as his name was called, Chu Yao automatically rewinded but Mo Yan's reflexes were excellent, the man quickly grabbed the girl's body in his arms.

"You're wrong, your honor." Chu Yao said with full of contrived calm.

Mo Yan raised next to his brows and smiled in his arms, "really?"

"It is only Chu Yao and I who can recognize A-Wei only from her martial movements." Whispered Mo Yan with a bated breath, "In addition to me, only Chu Yao and the people in the cold pavilion alone know about the poison removal method I once did.."

"... If you are not Chu Yao. So who told Fu Bai about it?" Chu Yao did not move. He was silent with tension in every word Mo Yan spoke.

Mo Yan further tightened his embrace, "Don't fool me anymore!"

"I'm not fooling your majesty!"

"Is your pretense not a trick to fool me?!"

The hug almost turned into a powerful grip on Chu Yao's frozen arm.

The persecuted feeling that Mo Yan felt was so real that it pierced through Chu Yao's powerful defensive fortifications. The man seemed to be complaining. Wreak all the disappointment and also his hope on women who still do not give any response.

Mo Yan hissed with all his thunder, "I searched all over the place for these four years but found no trace of you either.. "

"They said I was too obsessed with you to blind my mind. But they didn't know that it was faith that kept me alive.. It was also that belief that made me meet you again.."

Mo Yan buried his face in the crook of Chu Yao's level neck. Inhaling as deeply as possible the scent that he missed. His voice was hoarse and trembling. Full of longing and longing.

"You have seen me. But he just pretended not to know me. Set boundaries for our relationships. Did you intentionally make me suffer? Do you want me to be as helpless as you did when you sent me to this strange place?"

"I don't care! Even if you don't want me anymore, I'll keep following you. You have to take responsibility for making me feel pain all this time! I will no longer let you walk away from me for a single moment!"

Chu Yao bit her lip. Resisting the almost overflowing emotional shock on his chest.

"I am Fu Hua, not Chu Yao. The woman had long since died together with those people in the hall of death."

Mo Yan loosened his embrace and looked at Chu Yao with a dark and deep gaze.

"If Chu Yao had died, then Mo Yan would have been. If you are now Fu Hua then I am Xu Xiao Yan. Nothing has changed except a name." Mo Yan said as he pulled the thin cloth that partially covered Chu Yao's face.

"My feelings remain the same." The whisper of Mo Yan who placed his forehead on Chu Yao's forehead was full of gentleness, "Even getting deeper towards you."

Chu Yao could no longer contain her feelings. He grabbed Mo Yan in his longing embrace, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"

"I'm guilty of you! I'm afraid you'll hate me! I'm afraid you'll get hurt because of me too! I'mfrightened.. Mo Yan's.."

Chu Yao's shrill voice compared to that of her uncontrollably trembling body.

Mo Yan cupped Chu Yao's face. There was a trauma so deep in her iris. It was so clear that Mo Yan could feel it.

"No will! I will always be with you!" Mo Yan said convincingly.

The young man hugged Chu Yao affectionately. He even let the woman vent all the sad feelings in her embrace.

No matter how long it takes, it remains until the woman becomes calmer.

Mo Yan smiled in joy. The body that fell asleep in his car seemed so cradled his body.  It was as if bringing him back to feel the atmosphere of life.

Mo Yan placed the exhausted-looking girl on his bed with gentleness. He even deliberately slipped his hand under the neck of the girl just to feel the sensation of ownership.

Chu Yao wriggled involuntarily and made the man even more anxious over it.

"I promise, I will repay the pain they have given you!" Mo Yan muttered with a gentle kiss on the top of Chu Yao's head.
