Morning Star

Chapter 343 Throwing You into the Small Dark Room

“……”Chujiu didn’t move and didn’t answer.

Mo Xinglan tightened his hands on the quilt, a little irritated: "Have you forgotten what I said this morning, that I can do anything as long as you are happy. And you... agreed to it."

"..."

He bit his lower lip and lowered his eyes: "I said I would do what I said, are you going to break your promise?"

"..."

"What exactly do I have to do to make you not angry?" What do I have to do to make you willing to talk to me?

"..." What to do? She didn't know what he should do to stop her from getting angry.

Swear? Bullshit oath, she doesn't believe in oaths at all.

Do you want him to act like a boy on Earth and kiss, hug, and lift up his girlfriends? That is in line with his personality.

And that's not what she wanted. She just wanted him to be nicer to her and cherish his life. But even if she said it, it would be useless. After all, she did say it, but she didn't listen, right?

How could she get him to pay attention to her?

Mo Xinglan didn't get a response from her and stopped talking. He stared blankly at one place and carefully recalled some things that happened since last night.

But he just couldn't figure out what he had done wrong.

She said she wanted to know about her past, and he explained to her why he didn't tell her. She also said she would not ask about it anymore.

What did he do wrong just now?

Was it because you were angry because you saw him almost die?

But he himself didn't know what was going on with him before, and suddenly he thought that maybe it would be better to just die. When he came to his senses, she was yelling at him.

How should he explain this to her?

And isn't he fine? He also apologized. Why doesn't she accept his apology?

The more I think about it, the more confused I become, and the more annoyed I become.

He sighed, slowly lay down, and stared at the ceiling in a daze.

Neither of them slept, each thinking about something.

Mo Xinglan knew that she was not asleep and wanted to ask her questions, but was afraid that she would ignore him.

After struggling for a long time, I finally couldn't help but ask.

"What did I do wrong?"

"..."

Chujiu opened his eyes angrily and suppressed his anger.

But she had accumulated enough anger for the whole day, and now she couldn't bear it no matter how hard she tried.

Since she couldn't bear it anymore, she was too lazy to endure it anymore.

She rolled over and pressed on him, pulled open his shirt without saying a word, and bit hard on his distinct collarbone.

Blood gushed out instantly and filled her mouth.

"..."

Mo Xinglan frowned but didn't make a sound, nor did he push her away, letting her bite him.

After a while, she let go, and the bright red blood on her lips was stunning.

Seeing that she finally opened her mouth, Mo Xinglan said softly: "Answer my questions after you have vented."

Chujiu was so angry that his teeth itched. He gritted his teeth and lowered his head to cover his mouth.

The sudden kiss made Mo Xinglan's body stiffen, and he felt a little at a loss.

But soon he felt a pain on his lips and realized that she was not kissing him but biting him.

She bit the corner of his mouth and broke the skin. Blood came out and stained the corner of his lips.

After leaving his lips, she glared at him threateningly: "You don't even know where you are wrong, so why should I not be angry? Why should I forgive you?"

Mo Xinglan was stunned for a moment and was a little unconvinced: "I've thought about it, but I don't think... "

Before he could finish his words, Chujiu angrily stuffed two fingers into his mouth.

He said angrily: "You'd better not say anything!"

"!"

Mo Xinglan's expression froze and he stood there in a daze, not knowing whether to close his mouth or open it.

He raised his hand to take her hand away, but when he remembered that she was still angry, he had to put it back.

Chujiu was so angry at the moment that he didn't realize what he was doing.

"You have such a pretty face, but it's a pity you have such a big mouth."

His voice was filled with anger and his hands moved unconsciously, causing Mo Xinglan's cheeks to turn red and his brows to frown.

Chujiu's mind was full of anger, so he didn't notice his abnormality.

"You think you're not wrong? Am I wrong? Would I be angry for no reason?"

"Hmm..." Mo Xinglan's breathing became a little rapid.

Chujiu felt more and more aggrieved when he thought about what happened during the day: "I have been holding back my anger for a whole day, and I was planning to forget about it after today. But you did that to me again, do you think I am a punching bag?"

Mo Xinglan: “…”

As she spoke, tears fell down and hit his red cheeks: "I know you are sad, I know that life is painful and hard for you, I know, I know..."

As she spoke, she buried her head in the crook of his neck, and her hand on his mouth became soft.

Mo Xinglan stared at the roof in a daze with his eyes wide open.

"Wow...but, but only by being alive can you do what you want to do, and only by being alive can you be with the one you love..."

She cried, tears dripping into his neck: "Didn't you say you would live well for me? Why did you break your promise? Xingxing, I like you, I really like you..."

It was her crying that finally made him understand what he had done.

He raised his hand to take her finger out of his mouth, kissed it gently, and hugged her in a gentle voice: "Jiuer, this time I really know I was wrong. I'm sorry, it's my fault."

Yes, didn't he say that? He said he would live well so that he could be with her forever. But why did he have such thoughts before? He shouldn't have, it was his fault.

After getting his promise, Chujiu said sullenly, "Then you can't break your promise again. Since you like me so much, I will reluctantly trust you again."

"Well. If I break my promise again..."

"I will tie you up and throw you into a small dark room, making you reflect on your mistakes facing the wall. You can only look at the wall and talk to the wall every day." Chujiu interrupted him with a threatening look in his eyes.

Mo Xinglan: “…”

"What's the answer?"

"……Um."

Mo Xinglan answered and tilted his head to rub her head gently with his face: "Are you still angry?"

Chujiu hesitated for a while and shook his head.

Mo Xinglan heaved a sigh of relief, and his heart, which had been hanging since last night, finally settled down. But he always felt that something had changed.

Maybe he was overthinking it.

Without going into it, he gently patted Chujiu's back and said, "Then you lie on the bed and we go to sleep?"

"No." She tightened her arms around his neck, unwilling to let go.

"..."

Forget it. She likes lying on him like this, so let it be. As long as she is happy.

Chujiu was in a low mood the whole day and cried many times. Once she relaxed, she fell asleep quickly smelling the sweet fragrance of Mo Xinglan.

Finding that the person on his body had fallen asleep, Mo Xinglan held her, slowly turned to the side, gently placed her on the bed, and held her to sleep.

……

The next day, when Mo Xinglan woke up, Chujiu was still sleeping.

He washed and dressed quietly and went out. He found Shi Yuan and learned in detail what happened to Chujiu yesterday.

Afterwards, the guards at the study door were replaced. He personally punished the two original guards with fifty lashes and had them dragged to the Cliff of Repentance.

Another order was issued that anyone who dared to speak rudely, disrespectfully, hurt or harm Chujiu would be executed and his body would be thrown into the mountains to feed the wild beasts.

After the order came down, everyone who had thought about or wanted to cause trouble for Chujiu when Mo Xinglan was away stopped.

The new Lord's methods were extremely cruel. It was said that the Demon Lord of the Western Region was punished to the Purgatory Tower on the day he returned. He was the only remaining Demon Lord in the Demon Realm, and the Lord punished him without mercy. They did not think that their status was as noble as that of the Demon Lord, and they did not want to die early.

In the study, Fang Hao brought a little girl.

"My Lord, Huahua is here."

Huahua, who was following behind him and whose soul had returned to its place of rest, carefully raised her eyes to look at the man sitting on the throne of honor. She was still a little afraid of him because of what happened last night.
