Free Web NovelChapter 200: Chapter 200: Don’t Cry... My Brother Wouldn’t Like It
Cang Yuzain listened to her words quietly. Then his eyebrows raised slightly.
A small expression of approval appeared in his eyes.
"Good question," he thought silently.
Most females in the Empires hardly cared about such things. Many of them only cared about luxury, pleasure, rank, and power.
Even the life and death of their own males rarely mattered to them.
But Yue Yue was different.
She was worried about a man who was not even officially her husband yet.
That alone showed something about her character.
If she truly became his elder brother’s queen one day, she might be a very capable one. She was not a brainless female chasing only comfort and status.
Cang Yuzain nodded slightly before answering.
"Lady Yue Yue, we cannot remove the poison completely right now."
"But we do have methods to slow it down."
He looked toward the unconscious man on the bed.
"We can stabilize his body and delay the poison’s progress until we reach the Sea Empire."
"If we had the full antidote here, we could cure him immediately."
"But unfortunately, we do not carry that antidote on this aircraft."
"So the only thing we can do now is prolong his life."
Yue Yue listened carefully. But strangely, she did not feel relieved.
Because they could stabilize Xing Luoye here.
But what about Xing Luoguang?
Who would help him?
He was alone.
If he had been poisoned too, how could he survive for so many days? Her heart tightened painfully again.
At that moment, a weak voice suddenly came from the bed.
"Yue..."
Yue Yue quickly turned her head. Xing Luoye had opened his eyes. His gaze looked weak and tired as he looked at her.
Yue Yue leaned closer immediately.
"What happened? Are you alright?" she asked quickly.
Xing Luoye slowly shook his head. His breathing was rough.
"I... want to speak with you... alone." His voice sounded hoarse, each word difficult to say.
Cang Yuzain immediately understood.
Without waiting for Yue Yue to respond, he politely nodded and stepped out of the room.
After all, he was the only outsider here. But the moment he stepped outside, he stopped.
Because two more men followed him out.
Feng Yanshen and Han Soi both walked out silently with gloomy expressions.
Cang Yuzain blinked in surprise. Did the lady even order them to leave?
A smile almost appeared on his lips. Who would dare give orders to the High Priest like this?
This female was truly interesting. His gaze shifted toward Feng Yanshen. The man’s face looked extremely dark.
Then he looked toward Han Soi. The famous Duke of the Land Empire.
A man who had once belonged to a powerful noble clan but had personally destroyed all his own backing and risen to power through pure strength.
His reputation was legendary across many empires.
Cang Yuzain silently observed him with interest.
This man was truly dangerous. Then a thought suddenly crossed his mind.
If his elder brother really wanted to pursue Lady Yue Yue...He would face very strong competition.
After all, every man around her seemed powerful and unique.
Cang Yuzain suddenly felt relieved. Luckily, he had already found the female he liked.
If his father ever forced him to pursue Yue Yue as well, he would probably be crushed before he even had the chance to stand beside her.
Thinking about his own mate, a gentle smile appeared on his face. He remembered her sweet voice and bright smile.
Then he quietly walked deeper into the aircraft, heading toward his own room.
Soon the room gradually fell into silence again. The footsteps of Han Soi and Feng Yanshen had already faded away, leaving only a gentle stillness behind.
Yue Yue and Xing Luoye were the only ones left inside the medical room. The soft white lights above the bed cast a calm glow across the quiet space, illuminating Luoye’s pale face as he lay weakly against the pillows. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
For a long moment, neither of them spoke. Then his lips moved slightly before a hoarse, fragile voice finally escaped.
"Are you... worried about my brother?"
His words were slow and weak, but they were clear enough.
Yue Yue did not even hesitate. She nodded immediately.
The moment she did, tears instantly filled her eyes. They appeared so suddenly that she couldn’t even stop them. But the worry in her heart was not only for Xing Luoguang, who was far away and suffering from the same poison.
She was also terrified for the man lying in front of her.
Her chest felt painfully tight, as if someone was squeezing her heart. The fear and pressure she had been holding back finally overflowed. Before she could stop herself, a soft sob escaped from her trembling lips.
Startled by the sound, Yue Yue quickly raised her hand and covered her mouth.
She tried desperately to suppress the sobbing that threatened to spill out, but the tears continued sliding down her cheeks uncontrollably.
Xing Luoye quietly watched her reaction. His gaze softened little by little.
Seeing Yue Yue cry like this made something stir deep inside his chest. With great difficulty, he slowly raised his trembling hand, trying to reach her face.
He wanted to wipe away her tears.
But his body was still too weak.
His fingers barely brushed the edge of her cheek before his strength completely gave out. His hand fell helplessly back onto the bed.
All he could do was whisper softly.
"Don’t cry..." His breathing was shallow as he continued.
"My brother... would never like to see you crying."
"Mmph"
Yue Yue lowered her head slightly, trying to regain control of her emotions. She inhaled slowly, forcing herself to calm down so she would not cry again in front of him.
Xing Luoye watched her quietly for a moment before speaking again.
"You... can get the method to stabilize me."
His voice became uneven, as if every word required tremendous effort. But he forced himself to continue speaking.
"I have a way... to contact my brother."
The moment those words left his lips, Yue Yue’s head snapped up. Hope suddenly flashed inside her tearful eyes.
Xing Luoye paused briefly to catch his breath before continuing slowly.
"If you can obtain the medicine they’re using to stabilize my poison... get another portion."
"I can send it to him."
"My people will know how to use it."
"He will be fine... just like me."
