Chapter 296: Hunger Strike to Show Determination? Goodbye Wuhun

Star Luo Empire, Zhu family.

The sunset glow in the sky is bright red and breathtakingly beautiful.

Inside the luxurious mansion, the maids and servants had finished their meal.

Shuttle back and forth under the eaves and between the corridors.

Everyone returned to their own posts and did their own job. There was no noise, but it was still quite lively.

In front of many courtyards and houses.

There is only one room that is special. No one passes by or even stays here.

Dim light came into the room through the doors and windows.

The atmosphere of old age is becoming more obvious.

The layout of the room is simple but very tidy, and the decoration on the bed is full of childlike innocence.

Zhu Zhuqing lay on the edge of the table, motionless.

She has a small face, black hair and a slender body.

Holding a small transparent fish tank in his hand, the red carp inside kept hitting the wall
He had no idea he was in a cage.

Just like she used to be
Zhu Zhuqing stared at the fish with her lifeless beautiful eyes, and her stomach rumbled.

Indifferent.

One month's time.

Within this short period of time, Zhu Zhuqing completely understood her situation.

All the love and care she had received in the past had gone away from her.

Or rather, she never had those things.

Those are all fake props used to cover up indifference.

Everyone is respectful
Looks harmonious and beautiful.
But it was this kind of soft knife that made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

He clearly showed concern for her
But when she asked her father and mother for help and exposed her sister's evil deeds.

They all looked around and talked about other things.

Adhering to the attitude of not believing and not interfering, it is a misunderstanding and a way of letting things take their course.

Zhu Zhuqing was completely helpless.

It seemed that no one in the entire Zhu family was on her side.

The entire Xingluo City.
Maybe it’s only the so-called fiancé.

Gulu~

There were constant rumbling sounds in my stomach.

Zhu Zhuqing pursed her red lips, stared at the red carp in front of her, and swallowed.

In a trance, I seemed to see the blond boy again.

The big brother who invited her to dinner.

He should be on my side, right? He is so powerful.
But why didn't he come as agreed?

Zhu Zhuqing stared at the small fish tank in a daze.

He blinked in confusion.

Was she starving? Why did the fish tank suddenly appear golden?
"What? Are you hungry again?"

A voice that made people feel like spring breeze suddenly rang out in the room.

The voice was not loud, but very gentle.

Zhu Zhuqing raised her lavender eyes and looked across the table in a daze.

A young man with blond hair and a white robe.

With the same warm smile as last time, he stood upright in the room.

The pitch-black tail behind him was slowly retracting.

Zhu Zhuqing didn't answer.

Qian Renjue didn't care. He sat down at the table and took out a small plate of snacks.

Push it in front of Zhu Zhuqing and say with a smile:
"Please give me something to eat."

Zhu Zhuqing stared at Qian Renjue closely, then slowly looked away.

Looked at the steaming fruit-flavored glutinous cake.

"Thanks."

Zhu Zhuqing was very calm, far from the panic she showed last time.

Even if the hunger keeps coming.

She was very reserved and polite as she picked up a small piece, put it to her lips and swallowed it slowly.

But his eyes were still fixed on Qian Renjue.

There was an inexplicable expectation in his eyes.
Don't forget to explain:
"They invited me to dinner, but I didn't go because I didn't want to see them."

"Oh? Is that so?"

Qian Ren Jue was not surprised either.

Seeing the stubbornness in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, he reminded her:

"A hunger strike won't change anything."

"This kind of protest will only hurt yourself, and you won't be able to carry it for long."

As if he had thought of something, Qian Renjue added.

"It won't affect development."

"..."

Zhu Zhuqing pursed her red lips and remained silent. She knew it was useless.

But this is almost the only thing she can do.

The words fell.

The juice appeared in front of Qian Renjue again, and he gently stroked the wall of the cup with his palm. Some icy dew hung on the glass cup.

Without any movement from Qian Renjue, the iced juice floated up and down.

Appeared on Zhu Zhuqing's right hand side.

Looking at the juice, Zhu Zhuqing looked at Qian Renjue with even greater anticipation in her eyes.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Qian Renjue shook his head slightly.

He glanced at the increasingly dark sky outside and said bluntly:
"How is it? Has a month given you time to think it over?"

"..."

Zhu Zhuqing licked the pastry at her lips.

He did not answer directly, but stared at Qian Renjue eagerly.

“I want to eat first.”

"Okay."

Qian Ren Jue burst out laughing.

He was not in a hurry and just waved his hand, and various dishes appeared on the table.

All still steaming.

But there were a few extra ones, which Hu Liena made for him personally.

Qian Renjue placed the dishes and chopsticks in front of Zhu Zhuqing personally.

"Take your time to eat. I'll wait."

Swish—clang!
Before Qian Renjue could finish his words, the chopsticks in his hand had already been snatched away by Zhu Zhuqing.

Quick reach for those meat dishes.
Keep stuffing it into that cherry-sized mouth.

"Ah! Thank you, thank you."

Zhu Zhuqing had puffy cheeks and spoke incoherently.

She has been fasting for a whole day.

Very hungry.

Qian Renjue stared at the scene in a daze, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.

clear in mind
No wonder she was looking at me expectantly.

It turns out that he was looking forward to the dishes in his own system space.

“Eat slowly”

Qian Renjue warned softly.

He poured a bowl of cordyceps flower and ginseng soup for Zhu Zhuqing and brought it to her.

"Ok!"

Zhu Zhuqing took it with both hands and nodded heavily.

He swallowed the meat in his mouth with the soup, but he didn't forget the little fish in the fish tank.

Put down your actions.
Pick up a small piece of glutinous rice cake, roll it into small particles, and throw it into the fish tank.

"Ah"

Qianren couldn't help but smile.

As soon as he thought about it, the fish tank and pastries floated in front of him.

"let me help you."

"..."

Zhu Zhuqing was stunned for a moment, then ignored it and continued to work hard.

Also rolled his eyes.
Looking at the blond boy in front of her, he was patiently breaking cakes to help her feed the fish.

My slightly restless heart gradually calmed down.

This boy
Even though the sun has set, it still feels warm.

quickly
The dishes on the table were all smashed to pieces.

Zhu Zhuqing's mouth was covered with oil and soup, and she stretched out her small tongue to lick the corner of her lips.

I started to hiccup uncontrollably.

"Haha. I told you to eat slowly."

Qian Renjue smiled and returned the fish tank to its original owner.

Zhu Zhuqing held him tightly in his arms, which seemed to give her some sense of security.

“Thank you for the meal.”

"Ah."

Qian Renjue nodded slightly and asked with a smile:
"Can you give me your answer now? Don't worry, I won't force it."

"I want to see the teacher's martial spirit again."

Zhu Zhuqing asked nervously, she was afraid that she would be considered troublesome.
But she was more afraid that what she saw last time was an illusion.

Full of a feeling of unreality.

"Oh?"

Qian Renjue looked at Zhu Zhuqing in surprise.

Her name already indicated her choice, so why would she go through so much trouble?

Noticed the worry in her eyes.
Qianren Jue suddenly realized.

"of course can."

　I wish you all a happy life!
