"Girl." Chu Dongling took a step forward, took her hand, "Let me see the wound."
"Let go, I'm fine!" Long Qian turned back and stared at him, "There's a formation in the forest, let's find a way to leave."
Chu Dongling took out his handkerchief and squatted down.
"What exactly are you going to do?" Long Qian frowned slightly.
It’s just a tool, does it require so much care?
Chu Dongling said nothing and carefully wrapped her cut hand.
Long Qian looked at him quietly, not knowing what to say.
"Tell me, have they bullied you?" Chu Dongling let go of her hand and raised his eyes to look at her.
It was his fault for not being able to arrive in time.
Long Qian calmed down and asked in a low voice: "If I am really bullied by them, can you let me leave?"
He was nice to her just because she could counteract the evil spirit in him.
Who would be willing to be a tool man?
With a "boom", a big tree was broken in half.
The strong air current blew up the dead branches and leaves all around, and even the nearby trees swayed.
Long Qian was so frightened that if he hit her with this palm, she would definitely die without her body intact.
It seems that this topic cannot be continued.
She just longs for freedom and doesn't want to die!
"I don't……"
Before Long Qian could explain, the man spoke.
"Feel sorry!"
His low and hoarse voice contained emotions that were difficult to grasp.
Long Qian looked at him, blinked his round eyes, and couldn't say a word.
"It's because I didn't protect you well that you suffered..."
"I'm not!" Long Qian waved his hand fiercely, "I'm not being bullied, really!"
"If you don't believe it, you can check it yourself. I'm not being bullied. I'm fine!"
For some reason, Long Qian felt that Chu Dongling was even more terrifying now than before.
The cruel King Ling apologized to her, and then what?
Long Qian shivered all over and couldn't speak fluently.
"I...protect myself very well, really...very well."
Tool people are just tool people. At least they are still human beings. They are alive and well, have good food and a good place to live. What's wrong with that?
"Seriously?" When Chu Dongling approached again, a large part of the cold air dissipated.
"Seriously." Long Qian nodded vigorously, "It's absolutely true!"
Chu Dongling clasped her little hand and held her in his arms.
Long Qian's eyes widened and he didn't dare to move.
Someone who can chop down several trees with just a flick of his hand is really scary!
"You really can check it yourself?" Chu Dongling's coldness completely dissipated, and his eyes were filled with a hint of joy.
Not bad! She's fine.
"Yeah." Long Qian nodded mechanically.
Soon, he shook his head again.
"No, Your Majesty, that's not what I meant."
Check? How to check this kind of thing?
Long Qian remembered what she had just said and bit the tip of her tongue hard.
Just kidding! How is it possible to check? Impossible!
"My lord, you don't believe what I say?" she blinked and asked.
"I believe it." Chu Dongling stroked her hair and frowned for a moment.
"Are you injured?" His cold fingertips lightly touched her bruised forehead.
"Hiss..." Long Qian bared a row of neat white teeth in pain.
She covered her head and whispered: "It's okay, they just drove me away in the carriage."
"I accidentally... bumped into it."
Chu Dongling held Long Qian's hand, turned around and walked back.
Long Qian looked up at his tall back and asked, "Your Majesty, where are we going now?"
Chu Dongling did not stop, but at least his steps were not large.
