——————-
The smell of blood was too thick inside the bedroom, this surprised Long Ju. Even though she tormented Xie Li last night she did not do anything to him that would harm him physically, at least she was sure of that—- however this scent of blood…
Long Ju was scared a bit, though she did not want to admit that she cared about Xie Li, she still hurried over to the bed after tapping on her monitor to turn the lights on of her bedroom. Bright white light flooded the room as she walked over to the floating air bed, which was hovering over three inches from the ground. Underneath the bed multiple lights were shimmering and around the bed was a small 3D pond that created a fake illusion of koi fish swimming inside the room. freēwebnovel.com
However Long Ju was not in the mood to look at the beautifully designed koi fish, so she hurried to check up on Xie Li. And as she approached the bed, the smell of blood got stronger and stronger. A sense of foreboding rose in Long Ju's heart as she stopped in front of the bed.
Xie Li was lying on the bed with a pallid complexion. He was Xie Jie's biological brother thus his features were just as delicate and pretty however while Xie Jie's hair was dark as the night sky, Xie Li's hair was as warm as the sun. His long blonde hair which hadn't been trimmed for ages was sticking to his forehead as cold sweat trickled down his face.
His breathing was laboured and Long Ju could see that he was in a lot of pain.
" Xie Li! What's the matter with you?" Though Long Ju was worried, she did not wish to admit that Xie Li was hurt. This mer was so ruthless that for the sake of his own life, he caused two people to die. How could he be in pain?
She reached out her hand and then pushed Xie Li who was lying on the bed, however, the latter did not even open his eyes. Seeing him like this the premonition in her heart started to get even stronger. Long Ju looked down at Xie Li's body which was covered with a blanket.
A part of her was telling him to pull it down but at the same time, Long Ju was too scared to pull the blanket away. What if…?
Though Long Ju was afraid, she knew that this time around she would have to face her fears. As Xie Li was naked and she did not arrange for any mer servant for him, though Long Tingyang had many servants, that mer would refuse to let his servants help Xie Li.
" It will be fine … most probably he ended up getting scratched or something, if something was seriously wrong with him why wouldn't he scream and call for help? I am just scaring myself," Long Ju consoled herself. As the thoughts which were flickering in her head made her terrified. If any one of them were to come true, what was she supposed to do?
Long Ju continued to tell herself that everything was fine. She then reached out her hand and pulled the soft blanket that was made from the silk of Black Silk Worm.
However, the small injury that she was anticipating seeing did not appear, instead what greeted her was a pool of blood. The bedsheet under Xie Li's body was dyed red and so was the blanket, the sight was so horrifying that even Long Ju who thought her heart was turned into stone after the death of her beloved mer, took a few steps away from Xie Li.
" Th…This …" her lips trembled as she looked at Xie Li, suddenly she seemed to have understood what happened to Xie Li. " B…But how is it possible!? I made sure to give him precautionary pills!"
Though Long Ju was confused and scared, she did not waste her time. She picked Xie Li who was unconscious up from the bed and then threw a dressing capsule on his body such that his naked body was clad in a set of casual clothes. However, even after getting dressed up, he did not stop bleeding.
