Repairing the Past

Chapter 72

“Emperor Airland killed?” Zhao Ming De asked as some soldiers took him and captain Lu to the barracks. Captain Lu nodded slowly.

“Means our country lost?!” Guess Zhao Ming De with a sour face.

Captain Lu sighed, “Not entirely so. I heard that Emperor Alorra was seriously injured and is now lying unconscious. He still seems to be in a coma.”

The look on Zhao Ming De's ugly face instantly changed drastically. He looks happy with the angle of the lips curved upwards. Zhao Ming De did not care about that battle, for him as long as Mo Yan was helpless, he could take Chu Yao away easily. Out of that cruel man's confinement forever.

Captain Lu glanced at the change in his comrade's mood. Unknowingly, the man shuddered and looked back to the front. The train they were using almost reached their destination. The soldiers guarding them politely invited the two to disembark once they arrived inside the barracks.

“The war is over, we will escort the gentlemen to safely cross the border tomorrow morning.” Said General Luo when the two envoys were standing straight in front of him.

“Thank you sir. Then we'll take a quick rest tonight.” Captain Lu bowed his body respectfully.

General Luo nodded his head and ordered one of the soldiers to deliver the two men to their tent.

Captain Lu and Zhao Ming De withdrew and followed the soldier's direction. They walked west without making any conversation. Zhao Ming De's movements suddenly came to a halt once he saw the female figure he was familiar with.

“Chu Yao.” He muttered with a big smile. Without a second thought, the scholar ran over to Chu Yao who was in dialogue with some Alorra officials.

Captain Lu called Zhao Ming De over and over again but the young man remained indifferent. He did not care about the call of his colleague, even deliberately heed himself.

Zhao Ming De stopped a few meters away from Chu Yao. He looked at the woman with a longing look. Chu Yao who was unaware of the presence of young master Zhao, still looked preoccupied with his affairs. His talks with Alorra state officials have siphoned off all his attention.

“We will carry out according to the instructions the mistress gave.” Said one of the officials.

“If there are no additional instructions then we will return to the palace right now.” Add it with respect.

Chu Yao allowed the set to disperse and leave the barracks as soon as possible. When their silhouettes almost disappeared, Chu Yao turned around and her gaze met the figure of Zhao Ming De. Regardless of the astonished look on Chu Yao's face, the young man moved closer and greeted her.

“Miss Chu, we finally meet. How are you?” Asked young master Zhao with a wide smile.

Chu Yao did not reply. His eyes were watching around. He captured the figure of Captain Lu from a distance. It seemed that the man was waiting for Zhao Ming De.

“What are you doing here young master Zhao?” Chu Yao asked in a flat tone, “shouldn't you have already rested inside the tent with captain Lu. Tomorrow morning you're going back to Airland, right?”

“Not only me and captain Lu, but miss Chu can also come back with us. Let's go home together!” Zhao Ming De replied without hesitation.

Chu Yao furrowed her brows. He looks confused, “I? Going home? Where?”

“Of course to Airland! This is not our place to live!”

“...”

“Nona need not fear, I will protect miss if the aides of the emperor hinder the departure of miss!”

Chu Yao looked at Zhao Ming De with a strange look. He even shook his head while giving a small massage on his increasingly wrinkled forehead, “It seems that the young master has not understood the situation. I can't go back to Airland. The woman with the identity you mentioned has long since died as the son of a traitor to the state. After all, my current status is already the wife of the supreme leader of Alorra. So, it is very unlikely that I will come with young master.”

Zhao Ming De's smile instantly disappeared, “What can't?! I'll hide you! I can give a new identity to miss! Emperor Alorra won't be able to prevent me from bringing Miss, isn't he still unconscious?! That ruthless man will never get in our way again!”

“What do you mean by 'we'?!” Chu Yao exclaimed with high intonation, “You and I have never had any relationship! On what basis can you say such a ridiculous thing?!”

“This is not silly. My feelings for you have not changed. I still love you! I know you have the same feelings as me! You don't know how bad I was when I got the news of your death!” Refute Zhao Ming De with great courage. He grabbed onto Chu Yao's humerus bone and immediately released the woman with a single pull.

“Do not touch me!” Said Chu Yao with a cold and sharp look.

Instead of resigning, Zhao Ming De was precisely getting closer and hissing roughly towards Chu Yao, “She Mo Yan, right?! That Emperor Alorra was your personal bodyguard back then, right?!”

“He presses you with his power!”

“What do you mean? He's not pressuring me at all! He sacrificed a lot for me!” Refute Chu Yao.

“That's not true!” Cut young master Zhao off loudly.

“If you think only he sacrificed, you're wrong! I have sacrificed a lot for you too!” Zhao Ming De sizzled with a sharpening of his eyes.

“I've fought to restore the good name of the Chu family for your sake! I was even willing to become a subordinate of Long Ye Lang just to look for a loophole to clear all those accusations!”

“...”

Zhao Ming De chuckled at Chu Yao's response that was no longer defiant, “Do you know for these four years, I have subdued myself under her control. For the purpose for which I must achieve, I must endure all his insults and hypocritical attitude.”

Chu Yao grumbled indifferently. He threw away his face and intended to leave Zhao Ming De who was still chattering incoherently. Instead of stopping, the young man actually pulled Chu Yao's hand tightly until the female body retreated without her being able to control it.

“You..!”

“Listen.. You must hear everything!”

Zhao Ming De brought his face closer and whispered for quite a while in Chu Yao's ear. In just a split second, Chu Yao's eyes rolled swiftly. He reflexively pulled on Zhao Ming De's shirt and buried the young man's body on the ground.

“YOU'RE CRAZY!” Raung Chu Yao while placing emphasis on the charismatic man's neck. Chu Yao's loud voice had seized the attention of captain Lu and the few soldiers who had flashed near them.

Zhao Ming De grinned, “It was not inciting but giving advice. If he succeeds, wouldn't the emperor of Airland be happy to restore the status of crown prince to him.”

“And if Ye Lang becomes crown prince again, you will freely ask for rewards? So?” Chu Yao continued in a grim voice.

Zhao Ming De chuckled and tried to wipe Chu Yao's face, “My smart girl.”

“I did intend to ask for a reward by taking advantage of that situation. I want him to plead with his majesty to restore your family's honor. Aren't you touched in the least by all this struggle of mine?”

“SINTING!” Reply Chu Yao with an increasingly blackened face, “You should live quietly with Chu Ling!”

“DON'T YOU EVER CALL THAT WOMAN'S NAME!!!” Zhao Ming De. His body trembled violently with a burning net full of inflamed emotions.

Chu Yao slapped the young man in the face and stomped him many times to the ground, “however he is my sister, he is also your legal wife, damn it! If I knew you had wasted it then I would not forgive you!”

Zhao Ming De laughed out loud, making the people around direct suspicious gazes at them. Slowly but surely, one by one people began to see the squabbles from an ever-closer distance.

Chu Yao did not care, she was getting more and more infuriated, “Your heart is already out of its mind!”

“That's because of you.” Chuckle young master Zhao with a sparkling gaze.

Chu Yao swallowed the saliva. Suddenly, he was disgusted to look at the man. With a single stretch, Chu Yao withdrew her hand and leaped gracefully away from the figure of Zhao Ming De. The woman called out to some soldiers to drag the young man back to his place.

Zhao Ming De shouted loudly, “YOU MUST COME BACK WITH ME! I DON'T CARE HOW YOU COME WITH ME!”

“DO YOU HEAR THAT?!”

“CHU YAO!!”

Captain Lu was speechless to see the soldiers forcibly withdrawing the fellow. Zhao Ming De seemed to be giving a fight. But the resistance he gave him could not release him from the pull of Alorra soldiers.

The soldiers did not even hesitate to deal a blow to silence Zhao Ming De's impulsive manner. With a single fist furrowed, the scholar was instantly helpless. He had no strength and fainted.

As a fellow who had gone through the joys and sorrows of their long journey, this time captain Lu was forced to turn a blind eye. Pretending not to see young master Zhao's request of help from a distance.

Captain Lu didn't want to get involved. Enough war had locked his movement in a foreign country he did not know. If until he returned to dealing with those people because of Zhao Ming De, it was not foolishness.

Captain Lu wiped away the sweat running down his cheeks. He was about to get better, but suddenly he reacted. He suddenly stiffened and held his breath as the emotionless figure of Chu Yao cast a sharp glare towards him.

Mannered, captain Lu bowed his body and walked back towards the tent. Although he looked calm, he was quite surprised by the incident just now. He did not expect, famous scholars are full of authority and virtuous, can act so closely.

On the other hand, Fu Bai and A-Wei were already standing with a riled up face. They rushed over as soon as they saw Chu Yao's figure enter the tent.

“What's up?” Chu Yao asked in confusion.

“What happened? I heard you got into a ruckus earlier?” Fu Bai raised a question without giving an answer to Chu Yao.

Cinnamon bead Chu Yao was fixed on the figure of Mo Yan who was still lying on the cot. He smiled for a moment and put on a sad face again.

“Zhao Ming De makes me ride apitam.” Tukas Chu Yao's. The woman told Fu Bai and A-Wei everything that happened just now.

“Indeed abnormal human! His obsession really endangers everyone.” Omel Fu Bai was irritated.

Chu Yao did not care about Fu Bai's curse, she looked at Mo Yan and muttered, “She has not opened her eyes as well.”

A month already Mo Yan was unconscious and it made Chu Yao even more worried.

“Tabib Fu plans to bring his majesty back to the pavilion along with the return of all Alorra warriors here.” Chirps A-Wei.

“The sooner the better, the air here is not so good for healing his body, “ Fu Bai explained with a serious face.

Chu Yao did not take her eyes off Mo Yan. He gently stroked the man's hair, “For that long for Mo Yan's sake, whatever it is, I won't mind.”

“Then I will prepare everything.” A-Wei withdrew and left Chu Yao and Fu Bai at that place without hesitation.

Chu Yao sighed. Pause for a moment and walk towards the table beside Fu Bai. His throat feels hoarse. His body was starting to feel uncomfortable. He shook his head and put a little pressure on his forehead which felt pulsating.

“Fu Bai's.. Where's the water pitcher? I'm so thirsty.” Chu Yao asked in a soft voice. He fumbled around but his gaze had started to have no fixed focus.

The young man who was standing was grasping Chu Yao's arm and looked worried, “Your face is pale. Are you sick?”

“I'm fine. My head is just a little dizzy.” Kill Chu Yao while neutralizing her increasingly irregular heartbeat. Chu Yao's gaze became nanar and indistinct. Fu Bai's figure had already appeared increasingly blurry.

With muddled lips, Chu Yao muttered, “Fu Bai.. L'm... “

Chu Yao's words were no longer heard. The woman's body was hollowed out with her eyes closed. Making Fu Bai daze for a moment. The young man carried Chu Yao's body onto the cot beside Mo Yan and quickly checked the woman's pulse. Fu Bai was worried. He looked at Chu Yao's face and took a deep breath.

“Yes God... You two this is really.”
