When they came to Zhou Ke's yard, Zhou Ke kicked Zhou Yan in the knees and forced him to kneel down. When he saw that he was kneeling on the ground obediently, he took out his soft whip and beat Zhou Yan one after another.

On the body.

"You know that Miao'er is my biological flesh and blood, but you still want to be so cruel to him? What are your intentions?"

The cartilaginous whip is made from the backbone of a snake. When it hits the body, there are countless hidden thorns adsorbed on the flesh. When it is pulled out, the leather and flesh are torn off directly.

In an instant, Zhou Yan was covered in blood.

His face was pale, but he bit his lower lip and did not moan at all.

Zhou Ke didn't dare to make the matter a big deal. It wouldn't be long before there was a palace banquet, but just now Zhou Yan had stepped on his lightning points.

Although his hands were left intact, Zhou Yan's back was still bloody and bloody, with countless pieces of Zhou Yan's flesh attached to the cartilage whip.

Zhou Ke didn't give up until the servant reminded him. He gasped and threw the cartilage whip to the ground: "You already knew your situation in the house, so you shouldn't provoke my son this time.

Just a reminder, if there is a next time..."

Zhou Ke finished speaking and left with a puff of sleeves.

Zhang Ping rushed from outside the courtyard. When he saw Zhou Yan's appearance, he frowned: "Your Highness!"

Zhou Yan only shook his head, forced himself to help Zhang Ping stand up, and whispered in his ear: "Zhang Ping...go...to Yuzhou City, I want to find Lin Xing."

"His Highness's body has become like this. How can he get to Yuzhou City? Any news should be delivered by his subordinates." Zhang Ping was heartbroken.

"No..." Zhou Yan's face was pale, and fine beads of sweat had already appeared on his forehead.

Every time he was whipped by Zhou Ke, he wanted to see Lin Xing more and more.

If he doesn't go to find Lin Xing now, he may not be able to see Lin Xing until he recovers from his injuries.

So Zhou Miao's plan, and his relationship with Lin Xing...

Zhang Ping was not allowed to carry out the banquet, so he had to prepare a carriage and help Zhou Yan up.

Although the two of them did not stop on the road, Zhang Ping took Zhou Yan into consideration and asked the coachman to slow down. Zhang Ping applied medicine to Zhou Yan in the carriage. The more he looked at Zhou Yan's back, the more he gritted his teeth.

"Why did the Marquis hurt you like this? You have always been unruly, why did you obey his orders this time?"

Zhang Ping could vaguely guess Zhou Yan's life experience. He carefully wrapped gauze around Zhou Yan's shoulders: "What you have accumulated over the years... is enough to make the Marquis jealous, why not..."

Zhou Yan closed his eyes and fell asleep, the pain from the wound on his body had long been numb: "It's not the time yet, let him take a breath this time, and he won't be able to do it again in the future."

"When we and Lin Xing return to the capital, you buy a mansion for the Zhao family and send Shuo Feng to guard them. If someone from the Hou family comes to visit again, just do business as usual and don't need to report to me."

With Lin Xing?

Zhang Ping looked at Zhou Yan with some doubts. At this time, all he thought about was Lin Xing. Could it be that His Highness the Crown Prince had true feelings for Lin Xing?

Even though there were thousands of questions in his throat, Zhang Ping still answered: "Yes."

After traveling all the way, they arrived at Zhao's house in Yuzhou City on the evening of the second day. It was under curfew in Yuzhou City. Zhang Ping and others settled at the post station in Yuzhou City. Zhou Yan could barely stand up.

They haven't eaten for two days, but just soaked in some water. Just when the waiter served the food, Zhang Ping and the groom started to eat with their index fingers, holding the bowls in their hands. They drank a bowl of hot soup and bit into half of the steamed buns. Only then did Zhang Ping

Look towards Zhou Yan.

Where is Zhou Yan’s figure around?

Inside the Zhao Mansion.

Lin Xing had already rested, but she still felt some noise in the courtyard.

She put on some clothes and got out of bed, looking through the thin layer of window paper.

The moonlight was bright and the room was dark.

Lin Xing didn't feel it at first, but when she saw the rise and fall of the shadow clearly, she recognized that it was a person.

Lin Xing was shocked and her scalp was numb. She calmed down in just a moment.

After thinking of the secret martial arts moves she had practiced these days, Lin Xing regained some consciousness: "Who is that person?"

The shadow didn't answer for a long time.

The four silver needles in Lin Xing's hand were about to be thrown out.

But at this moment, the man said solemnly: "Lin Xing, it's me."

For just a moment, Lin Xing's hands were trembling, and she seemed to be unable to hold the silver needle. Her heart was beating fast, her brain was white, and she almost didn't know how to answer.

After a long time, he asked: "What are you doing here?"

After not contacting her for so long, Lin Xing had already forgotten about her at Zhou Yan!

Zhou Yan's breathing was rapid, and the two faced each other across the thin wooden door.

Lin Xing couldn't hear a reply for a long time, and she felt angry and was about to go back to the inner room: "Forget it, it's so late, I'm going back to sleep."

"Don't!"

Zhou Yan suddenly opened the door, wrapped his arms around Lin Xing's wrist, and pulled her back forcefully.

Lin Xing was unprepared and ran directly into Zhou Yan's arms.

She wanted to break free, but Zhou Yan's arms tightened even more.

"I was wrong."

A low apology seemed to break through some kind of shackles.

Zhou Yan was still squirming just now, but now it seemed as if his Ren and Du meridians had been opened.

"You and I have been working together for a long time. I shouldn't make my own decisions and not inform you of any plans."

"I shouldn't have said harsh words to you when you were angry."

"I have never been like this to a woman. I don't know how to get along. I will try my best to take care of your feelings in the future. Can you forgive me?"

Zhou Yan spoke sincerely, but Lin Xing had no intention of making fun of him.

The two breathed together, and the temperature around their bodies seemed to be ignited by the atmosphere. Lin Xing didn't know whether Zhou Yan's words were expressing his feelings to her or...

Her mind was very confused, and her heart was even more confused, as if countless villains were drawing chaotic lines in her mind, making her unable to clear her thoughts.

Just at this moment.

Xiao Yi suddenly jumped out: "Congratulations to the host for unlocking the hidden plot and receiving the reward of five senses, 1 skill point, and 200 points."

The ambiguous atmosphere was instantly shattered, and Lin Xing regained consciousness.

Just as she was about to push Zhou Yan away, she keenly smelled a strong smell of blood in the air.

What Xiao Yi refers to as having five senses means that no movement around her can escape Lin Xing's eyes, ears, nose, and senses.

The ups and downs of Zhou Yan's body were very different from those of ordinary people, as if he was trying his best to hide some pain.

Just now she thought Zhou Yan was the same as her.

Lin Xing's hand touched Zhou Yan's waist, and for a moment Zhou Yan's whole body seemed to be electrified.

He did not forget to ask Lin Xing: "Have you forgive me?"

Lin Xing rolled her eyes and asked him: "Why did your back suffer such a serious injury? Aren't you a strong martial artist? How could this happen?"

Zhou Yan seemed to have never heard of it: "Tell me first if you have forgiven me."

Lin Xing was speechless and choked: "I'm not kidding you."

"I'm not kidding either."
