Chapter 2 I just don't know if Lin Zhi wants to buy this bargaining chip
It was very hot in the room, and Shen Shuxiang was dripping with sweat. However, the person next to her was as cold as ice. Shen Shu trembled slightly in this dual world of ice and fire, and turned her head slightly.
Her face gradually turned red, and she whispered softly, "It would be better to burn the fire a little brighter..."
"Instead of worrying about me, you should worry more about yourself." Lin Zhi's eyes raised, and he approached her teasingly.
Shen Shu pursed her lips and explained, "If you worry about yourself, you may not be able to survive, but if the prince dies in front of me, I will definitely not survive."
He is quite self-aware.
Lin Zhi looked at the slightly trembling body that was cold due to being close to him, snorted coldly, and finally kindly let her go.
After all this hard work, he was already exhausted, so he lay down and closed his eyes to rest, ignoring her.
Shen Shu didn't know where she was going, so she could only guard him and watch him.
Unexpectedly, after a while, Lin Zhi suddenly opened his eyes and asked, "What are you doing here looking at me?"
"I...I don't know where to go."
"What a fool." Lin Zhi snorted coldly, "Go find Changfeng outside and ask him to arrange a place for you."
Shen Shu looked happy and quickly went to get her coat, put it on and went out to look for Changfeng.
Changfeng didn't expect Shen Shu to come out alive, so he was stunned for a moment.
Shen Shu happily called him, "Brother Changfeng, right? The prince asked you to arrange a room for me."
Shen Shu was so polite that Changfeng felt embarrassed.
He deliberately let Shen Shu into the prince's room. The prince was in a bad mood recently, so he thought it would be good to send this girl to the prince to play with and refresh him.
But she didn't expect that Shen Shu could still come out alive, so she paid more attention and arranged a better room for her.
Shen Shu smiled at him again and said, "Thank you, Brother Changfeng."
As soon as the door closed, another black figure immediately appeared in the darkness. He put his hand on Changfeng's shoulder with a smile, "Why don't you bet ten taels of silver with me on how long this woman can live?"
Changfeng frowned, "I bet she won't survive three days."
Changsheng was still smiling, "I bet she can live for more than a month."
"Why?"
"She is good-looking."
…
The room was clean. Shen Shu took off her clothes and lay on the bed instead of sleeping. Instead, she thought about her situation.
It has been three days since she traveled to this sadistic novel.
Because she had only heard about this novel, she was not particularly clear about the plot in the novel. She only knew that according to the plot, she would marry the prince next month, and the prince would think that she had killed his Bai Yueguang. She stabbed her blindly, poisoned her mute and tortured her to death.
The prince's power is overwhelming, and the only person in the entire book who can compete with him is the prince's uncle Lin Zhi, who is equally powerful and will be the regent in the future.
So, after thinking hard for three days, she came to seduce Lin Zhi.
It's just that this seduction plan may not be very successful.
She took off her clothes, huddled under the quilt, thinking about her situation, and fell asleep without realizing it.
The next day, when Shen Shu woke up, Changfeng asked the maid to bring her some clothes.
She randomly picked a red dress and wore it. She had just washed up when she heard a servant outside the door saying, "Did you know that the prince has just sent a greeting card and is coming to the palace this afternoon."
Her breath suffocated, and she subconsciously wanted to run, but she thought that running was not an option, and it might even harm the family members of Jingninghou Mansion.
So he gritted his teeth and headed towards Lin Zhi's house.
Lin Zhi was wearing a long white coat today, with a fox fur wrapped around his neck. He opened the door with a sad look on his face and looked at the white plum blossoms outside.
That annoying prince is coming, and even Bai Mei will not look good.
Just as he was about to order his servants to chop down all the white plums, he saw Shen Shu, wearing a long red coat, stepping on the white snow, slowly walking into his sight.
She was extremely beautiful, and the red dress made her already charming face even more charming when she first saw her, attracting all the servants and maids passing by to stop and watch.
Shen Shu originally wanted to ask about the prince, but when she saw him standing in front of the door so carelessly, she frowned and stepped forward, "The prince is weak. If you stand in the snow like this, you will get sick."
"My body is already sick, so what if I get sicker?" Lin Zhi looked at Shen Shu's neck, where he saw the finger marks he pinched last night, and said in a bleak tone.
"Your Majesty is already sick and weak. He should know better about the pain of illness and should take good care of his body."
Shen Shu stepped forward and opened the door. Lin Zhi couldn't see Bai Mei and was a little unhappy.
He looked at Shen Shu and said, "You are not afraid of me, and you are not polite when you see me."
"That's right, you are already going to die, so why should you do this?"
The corners of his lips raised slightly, and murderous intent appeared in his eyes again.
Shen Shu slowly closed her eyes.
She was betting that Lin Zhi wouldn't kill her.
Lin Zhi suddenly smiled when he saw the way she was trembling with her fingers while she was clearly righteous and determined to die.
This kitten is both timid and courageous.
Lin Zhi's good and evil are all in a single thought.
He did not take action, but suddenly said, "Forget it, you are too ugly in red. I will kill you if you wear something more beautiful another day."
Shen Shu opened her eyes in surprise, and then there was some confusion on her face. Is she wearing red... ugly?
She pursed her lips, regardless of whether she was ugly or not, in order for Lin Zhi not to kill her in the future, she had to wear it every day.
Thinking about it, Lin Zhi covered her lips and coughed again. She went to help him sit down on the chair.
Only this time, it wasn't just a cough.
She saw Lin Zhi shaking all over, as if in great pain, and recalled how her mother treated her when she was sick as a child.
So, I took the initiative to step forward, hug his body, and rub his back again and again.
Lin Zhi lost all strength and collapsed in her arms.
He put down the handkerchief, and the blood he coughed up smeared on the pure white handkerchief, like a charming flower from the other side of the world.
The poison in the tea last night took effect.
However, he didn't know whether the poison wasn't strong enough or whether Shen Shu's arms were too warm, but he always felt like it wasn't as painful as before.
A bit boring.
Shen Shu comforted Lin Zhi for a while. Suddenly she felt that the person in her arms had stopped moving. She was startled and asked him softly, "Your Majesty?"
"Don't worry, he's not dead yet." He said sadly, and when he looked up, he saw Shen Shu's beautiful peach blossom eyes and pretty red lips.
She has a pair of bright eyebrows. When she smiles, the sky and the earth are eclipsed. When she doesn't smile, she also reveals a bit of gentleness.
"I'll go call the doctor for the prince." Shen Shu was a little worried about him, but was stopped by Lin Zhi.
"If you don't scream, you are just a quack."
Shen Shu could only help her to the bed and find an extra quilt to cover him.
She looked at Lin Zhi like this and laughed at herself, why would she want to seduce Lin Zhi?
He was so ill that she was afraid that he would die on her.
Thinking like this, it is inevitable that a disappointed expression will appear on his face.
Lin Zhi took a look.
Tsk, I feel sorry for the loss of this beauty.
He admired her disappointed look for a while, but before he had enough, he heard someone calling outside the door, "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is here."
Shen Shu stiffened.
Lin Zhi raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "Are you afraid of him?"
"Afraid."
In fact, she is not afraid of the prince, it is the remaining consciousness of the original owner that is afraid of the prince.
The original owner was tortured so badly by the prince that the body couldn't help but tremble when it heard the prince's name.
A trace of amusement appeared on Lin Zhi's face, "You are afraid of him, but you are not afraid of me?"
Shen Shu was puzzled, "What does the prince have to be afraid of?"
Lin Zhi did not torture her to death.
Lin Zhi watched Shen Shu help his hand and suddenly smiled.
I wonder if the kitten will be frightened and cry after knowing that he is scarier than the prince?
Shen Shu didn't know why he was laughing. She only knew that the prince was waiting in the front hall to torture and kill her.
The only one who can save her is Lin Zhi.
So, with trembling eyelashes, she went to beg Lin Zhi again, "My lord... please, don't send me back to the prince."
Lin Zhi looked at her trembling appearance and said, "You have to know that no one wants to do business at a loss."
"If you want to ask someone to do something for you, you first need to pay what you can, so that the person can do it happily."
Shen Shu stiffened.
She has no remuneration, her mother's Jingninghou Mansion has long since declined, not to mention a mere Jingninghou Mansion, which Lin Zhi should look down upon.
She had just traveled through time, and it was impossible for her to establish her own power in a short period of time.
She hesitated for a long time. If it were a bargaining chip, she had only one.
I just don’t know if Lin Zhi wants this bargaining chip...
Her body trembled slightly, and she got a little closer to Lin Zhi, "I...have nothing to give the prince. The only thing I can give him...is this body."
