The Death of the Evil Empress

31. Sorry

Everyone ate his breakfast in suspense. Although in front of them there was a delicious meal but two pairs of eyes even stole the eyes of two people in front of them by alternating between He hua and Chen long, and so on. Physician Ji clearly knew the problem that happened that night because that night Physician Ji immediately asked Ling Ling and Chen long for an explanation. How not? Physician Ji was surprised to see the appearance of Chen long who came home in a mess.

Tak

The sound of chopsticks rattled the tense atmosphere at that time. The three people there turned towards the voice "I'm done, excuse me." said He hua. Then he got up and cleaned his bowl. But then as he was about to leave he looked at his father's face "Dad is there anything I can do today?"

Mmm

"While this doesn't exist, because Dad will soon be going to town in 3 to 4 days' time."

Physician Ji confided to them his desire to do business and open a free medical hall for people who could not afford it. Although healer Ji feels comfortable living with his new family in the forest, they soon have to move from there. Physician Ji also had to think about the fate of his family if they continue to live in the forest because they are ordinary humans who also have many needs.

"I will accompany you" said Chen Long.

"No. You accompany He hua and Ling ling, if you come with me who will take care of them."

Hearing the words of his father He hua rolled his eyes lazily but when accidentally his eyes saw Chen long's face.

Deg

A strange feeling flowed in his heart. Such a feeling of guilt for treating that man cruelly. Indeed the man was guilty of deliberately bringing up He hua's past and mocking him, but he was also the man who contributed to helping him get the chance of his new life.

.

Chen long sat alone on the chair that was in front of the hut of the house. He smeared the bruised marks on his face with heart. While holding and staring at the reflection of his face in the mirror Chen long smeared himself a cold balm onto his face, before the ji healer left he gave the balm to Chen long within a few days or a week the scar and the bruise would disappear completely. Chen long felt and watched closely his face in the mirror, ranging from scratch marks to marks of blows to blue colors adorned his face, neck and chest.

Actually Ling Ling wanted to help him earlier but Chen long stopped him reasoning he could do it himself. He is a single man, coming into contact with women who are not siblings feels uncomfortable. Yes although Chen long already considered Ling ling like a younger brother to him but Ling ling was still an outsider.

Ahem

Chen long lowered his mirror and looked to the origin of the sound. After finding out the owner of the voice Chen long ignored her by lifting back the mirror in his hand to cover his face.

"Sister Chen...

it seems you're having a hard time, what if I help you to treat it."

"......"

not getting a response, He hua sighed and repeated his words "Sister Chen it seems like you are having trouble, what if I help you to treat it."

"No! If you help me, you'll just add bruises to my face."

'Yes it looks like you deserve another extra punch on your face.' He hua's inner self.

"Why silence? it seems right that you want to add another blow to my face."

"I.no, where there is" replied He hua stammered.

He hua walked over to Chen long. He sat next to Chen Long. "Can I help you now?"

Chen long's heart was pounding.

"This is the balm" He hua said as he raised his hand asking for the balm from Chen long's hand.

Chen Long's nervous figure instead gave his hand to He hua and fused their fingers together.

"What are you doing! I asked for the balm instead of asking for your hand." He hua said as he let go of their hand links violently.

"I'm sorry.me..cuman.." said Chen long scratching his head that did not itch. He was also astonished at his own actions.

"Forgot it."

He hua took the cold balm from Chen long's hand and applied it on Chen long's face painstakingly and carefully.

And Chen long of course enjoyed it and closed his eyes accepting He hua's gentle touch. After all, he is a single man who has never been close to any woman. If he looked into He hua's eyes then he wouldn't be able to normalize his heartbeat.

When applying the balm He hua remembered his behavior in the past which often punished the waiter in his place. They also had bruises like Chen long all over his body if he passed through his residence all the servants lowered their heads in fear of him as if they had great respect for their lord. But when he was sick and weak many servants who scorned him even the sound of their scorn was heard all the way to He hua's room. They said, "God hears our prayers, so the queen is punished by God for persecuting the weak like us".

He hua was not punishing people for no reason. He punished them for hearing the servants vilify him just as Chen long had said. They brought up about the emperor who never once spent the night in his residence and he impregnated his closest cousin. How ironic! The words were true but very hurtful to her, as a wife she was blatantly insulted as if unfit to climb on the emperor's bed.

"I'm sorry" He said in a soft, trembling voice. It's still the same He hua. He hua was evil and cruel. 'How can I hurt my helper like this' Inner He hua. He felt his scar last night on Chen long's face.

Tests.tes..

He hua tears flowed down his face and dripping fell on Chen long's hands.

Chen long immediately opened his eyes and saw He hua crying.

"I'm sorry I hurt you."

Chen long clasped He hua's hand.

"Hey. I'm fine." he said calming He hua down.

He hua sobbed softly as Chen long clasped his hand, there was a hint of warm feeling flowing down his head.

'Perhaps you used to be known as the Evil and Cruel Empress but after being close to you, I understood you a little. You are not as evil as they thought He hua was, perhaps all just because of the desire to be loved and the political pressure alone' Chen long's inner self.

Chen Long also understood that position and possessions, especially love, can change the disposition and temperament of humans.

'And you He hua is a victim of loving him too much' said Chen Long's inner voice and his face looked sad.

God does not like anything excessive.
