C60

Sun Jinzi also didn't think that Jin Chupei would think this way. The relationship between his and Qing Xiu was merely that of a junior and a junior, yet had thought it to be so unbearable. It was his that was so unbearable in his heart.

Feeling a little disappointed in her heart, Sun Jinzi only lowered her head, not letting Jin Chupei find out about her current emotions.

The moment Qing Xiu entered the door, he felt that the atmosphere was unusual, but this Sixth Prince had a solemn expression, as if someone owed him millions of silver taels.

"Sixth Prince, I still don't know when master will be back. If you go back first, or when master returns, I will inform master that you have come."

"What, have you delayed Master Qing Xiu's good deed?"

Her gaze slowly drifted towards Sun Jinzi with hints of meaning.

Qing Xiu suddenly grabbed towards Jin Chupei's collar, Jin Chupei also fiercely grabbed Qing Xiu's wrist.

In a split-second, Sun Jinzi did not expect that what she saw the moment she raised her head was such a scene.

He hurriedly stood up and placed the golden-purple hand furnace on top of it, preparing to separate the two.

"Is the Sixth Prince here to cause trouble?"

Sun Jinzi's hand was on his wrist, causing Jin Chupei to feel a chill all over his body. When his eyes looked at the purple gold warm hand furnace on the table, he could vaguely see the sparks inside.

Just as he was about to speak, he saw Sun Jinzi looking at him and shaking her head. The mutual communication between the two of their brows only caused Jin Chupei's fury to surge upwards. He had even forgotten his doubts from a moment ago. He let go of his hand first, broke away from Qing Xiu's command, and got up from the praying mat.

His purple clothes made him even colder. "Miss Sun really loves this junior brother, so I won't disturb you any longer."

Sun Jinzi's body trembled, she did not want to explain, but if Jin Chupei insisted on doing so, then there was nothing she could do.

"Please do as you please, Sixth Prince."

Initially, he had thought that Sun Jinzi would explain herself to him, but she didn't seem to have any intentions of explaining it to him. Her expression could not be seen clearly, causing Jin Chupei to feel uneasy in his heart.

However, since the words had already been said, Jin Chupei was too embarrassed to stay in this place any longer. After pausing for a moment, he let out a stuffy snort, flicked his sleeve and walked out the door.

Ji Zi just went to the mountain side to look at an old lady's illness. Thinking that he would have a tea with Sixth Prince and play chess with her, he rushed back, the moment he entered the door, he saw Sixth Prince with a cold and furious expression. He was slightly surprised as he walked towards the door.

"Sixth Prince can't wait for me?"

Ji Zi stroked his beard, took off the medicinal basket on his back and placed it by the side of the door, as his clear gaze faced Jin Chupei.

Jin Chupei also saw Ji Zi, and nodded slightly, as his heart relaxed a little. In his fury, he had forgotten that he was not here to pick a quarrel with them. Therefore, there was no need for him to leave first.

"No, I just felt that the room was stuffy, so I came out to get some fresh air."

Ji Zi did not poke holes, but saw Mu Tan standing in the courtyard, and also looked towards the house. She did not see Sun Jinzi, but saw Qing Xiu standing at the door, and looked over.

had been here a few times and was extremely interested in this female disciple of his. Could it be that there was some kind of misunderstanding?

"Sixth Prince should go into the house and wait for a while. This old man will go wash up first."

He personally led Jin Chupei to the inside of the house and saw Sun Jinzi sitting on the praying mat that he was used to sitting on, so she didn't mind.

Hearing the footsteps, Sun Jinzi also raised her head, when she saw Jin Chupei, although there was a complex look in her eyes, but it also flashed past, and she looked at Ji Zi.

"Master, you're back?"

Ji Zi nodded with a light smile, and the gaze that stopped on Sun Jinzi's body immediately paused. He quickly approached and grabbed her wrist.

"How did you get poisoned with such a complicated poison?"

Sun Jinzi was slightly suspicious. She didn't even know when she was poisoned.

Jin Chupei's gaze tightened, and looked at Sun Jinzi without blinking. This woman actually didn't even know when she had been poisoned. And within the Sun Mansion, who could have such malicious thoughts, not even sparing a single girl?

"Master, is there any way to cure this poison?"

Qing Xiu's heart also ached. He had heard his master say that when he took back this little girl from the traffickers, he was sold out of the palace. She was afraid that she didn't remember any of this. If it weren't for the clues as to her identity from her body, she would have been left out in the world by now.

And now, she had been secretly harmed by someone and was poisoned without her master being able to sense it. This Sun Mansion Sun Jinzi probably could not stay there any longer.

"Master, I don't know when I was poisoned, but does this have something to do with the lion pollen and the Spirit Fragment Powder that I took a few days ago?"

Seeing Ji Zi's troubled face, Sun Jinzi knew that the poison was not easy to cure, but if she told her master about the poison in his body, he should be able to find out what kind of poison was in her body.

Shattered Spirit Powder was a poison that Ji Zi had developed. Although it was called poison, it was just a poison that caused people to be unconscious. It was also known as the Fake Death Pill, and the herbs within weren't anything special. Even taking it with lion pollen won't be toxic.

"Give me some time, I need to study it thoroughly."

Even Jin Chupei lost his vigor when he was playing chess. After getting drunk, Ji Zi went into the pharmacy. In the past few years that he had spent with Sun Jinzi, his feelings for his had long surpassed the relationship between master and disciple. He even viewed her as his own daughter, something even Qing Xiu couldn't compare to.

Naturally, he could not bear to see her suffer so much. Moreover, perhaps because of her negligence that day, she would have died from poison. This was something he did not even dare to think about.

"Sixth Prince, Master can't play chess with you today, then you …"

Qing Xiu spoke with the intention of chasing Jin Chupei away. Jin Chupei thought too much, and did not hear what Qing Xiu said clearly. Instead, he stood on the spot and looked at Sun Jinzi with a strange gaze.

Sun Jinzi frowned slightly, but did not notice anything unusual about the two. In her previous life, she died without discovering that her body was abnormal. How could she be so long-winded in this life?

Could it be that she had been reborn and everything had changed, or did the heavens punish her? There was bound to be gains and losses, so if she changed her fate, would Jin Chupei be alright?

When she lifted her head to look for Jin Chupei's figure, Jin Chupei was also looking at her. He lowered his head again, not letting him notice his emotions.

Jin Chupei didn't miss the worry that flashed past Sun Jinzi's eyes. Why was she worried about himself?

There were some doubts in his heart, but Jin Chupei didn't want to ask them right now. Faintly, other than worry, he was secretly delighted. He would be worried that whatever the reason was, it meant that she still had something in her heart.

Perhaps he had been too impulsive and had misunderstood something. However, as a man, it was not hard to tell that Qing Xiu treated Sun Jinzi a little special.

Sun Jinzi's heart was filled with doubts. In the past, if he didn't come into contact with his, Jin Chupei would be safe and sound. Was it that as long as he had no further contact with him, he would be able to live a peaceful life?

Compared to the fame, power, and high status, she hoped that he would be fine. Even if he was ordinary, he would still be able to live for a hundred years.

"Sixth Prince, do you want to stay here and watch me make a joke?"

Jin Chupei was originally only worried for her, but didn't expect Sun Jinzi to actually ask such a question. It made his heart ache, and he felt very disappointed.

"Qing Xiu, my legs are numb. Help me up and walk around the back of the mountain. I like it when you pick the red leaves the most."

Qing Xiu shot a glance at Jin Chupei before bending down to help him up. He gathered the fox fur coat for him and carefully took a few pieces of red-hot charcoal from the charcoal bowl in the room to put into Sun Jinzi's heater.

"Please do as you please, Sixth Prince. There's no need to stand on ceremony here."

When Jin Chupei heard these words from Sun Jinzi's mouth, he only felt that it was exceptionally ear-piercing. How much had he been despised by others, being chased back and forth time and time again?

Sun Jinzi and Qing Xiu did not stay any longer. By the time Jin Chupei regained his senses, the two had already walked to the main entrance. Qing Xiu held onto Sun Jinzi's body. The same white robe made the two of them look like a pair of beautiful women in a mural.

The hand on his knee tightened and relaxed. He had promised the matriarch that he wouldn't be entangled with her, but every time he saw Sun Jinzi, he would feel that every part of his body would be clamoring. He wanted to get closer to her, but he was always too sensitive, and couldn't help but hurt her.

He stood up and stood at the door, the sunlight shining on his body, yet Jin Chupei did not feel a trace of warmth, his entire body felt a chill, maybe this was what Sun Jinzi felt, maybe her feeling was stronger than his.

Mu Tan looked at Jin Chupei, then looked in the direction Sun Jinzi and Qing Xiu had left in, and could not help but complain about Qing Xiu's troubles. If he was not here, the one who would go with young miss to pick the red leaves should be the Sixth Prince. Moreover, Miss clearly likes the Sixth Prince, yet she wants to turn it into this.

But she didn't dare to ask Sixth Prince what had happened.

After giving it some thought, she rushed out the door. She still had to find the young miss and tell her how sad Sixth Prince was right now.

Looking at the empty courtyard, Jin Chupei no longer bothered to hide his emotions. He could see all the conflict and pain on his face. When he thought that Sun Jinzi might leave him, Jin Chupei felt his heart ache. He couldn't let her go, and he wouldn't let anyone hurt her again. Those people in the Sun Mansion, no matter who they were, he would make them pay.
