Chapter 298: Between Life and Death (1)
He had only ever seen her this active in his dreams.
By instinct, he locked his lips with hers and nibbled on them eagerly. A strange liquid flowed in from Gong Yimo\'s mouth, and being half-conscious, he swallowed it down.
"Is the water cold?"
After Gong Yimo released him, Gong Jue was still slightly panting. His eyes were misty, and his appearance was very alluring.
"You\'re still not coming up?"
Suddenly coming back to his senses, Gong Jue climbed up to the shore.
Gong Yimo had long taken out a thread and needle, and actually stitched up his wound just like that!
The pain he expected did not come. It felt like what the needle pierced was not his arm at all. Gong Jue was shocked! But then he noticed his entire body growing numb, even his consciousness was gradually blurring out. Even speaking became difficult for him.
"What…did you…give…me…?"
He wanted to shake his head, but he could only sway it a little. Clearly, he still kept some of his consciousness, but his body was paralyzed.
As expected, the oral anesthetic was very effective.
Gong Yimo was able to sew up his injury quickly and applied some topical medicine. While she was bandaging him, her voice came lightly as she gazed towards the other side of the river, "You lot—How much longer are you planning to watch the show for?"
Turns out that a group of people had been lurking around the vicinity since god knows when. If Gong Yimo\'s guesses were not wrong, they were chasing after Gong Jue.
A masked man stepped out. Even if his entire body was concealed, Gong Yimo could still recognize who he was at first glance.
"Here I was wondering who was sneaking around. Turns out it\'s you? Makes sense. With a mother so fond of intrigue, it\'s only natural her child enjoyed sneak attacks."
Yes, it was Concubine Long\'s son, Gong Shi, one of Dayu\'s four imperial princes.
But hearing Gong Yimo\'s mockery did not bother him.
"Sneaking around is still better than going against basic human decency and morals, am I wrong?"
Gong Yimo held up Gong Jue and sneered.
"But if you think you can catch me, then you better think again."
"What if you include me?"
A bearded man appeared with a group of people. For the sake of circling her, Gong Shi would actually cooperate with people from Louye?!
"Fourth imperial prince, you should know that colluding with outsiders is a crime punishable by death."
Gong Shi chuckled grimly. "But…who\'s going to know if the witness is dead?"
Unexpectedly, Gong Yimo was not scared by his words, and she even laughed.
"You and your motley crew think you can catch me? Let\'s see you try!"
Then, she rushed towards the river with Gong Jue held tightly in her arms!
At this moment, Gong Jue\'s body was numb, and his consciousness was also affected. But he kept himself awake best as he could and did not fall unconscious.
When he heard that someone had found his imperial sister by following him, he was furious! But he just couldn\'t move, and couldn\'t speak. He could only circulate his blood at his four limbs with his internal force, not knowing that he had lost too much of it. Coupled with the anesthesia that paralyzed his nerves, his head grew heavier the more he continued. If this goes on, he would not even be able to stay awake!
No…Stay awake! Imperial Sister is in danger!
The soldiers chased them over the lake, surrounding her in all directions, while Gong Yimo held one blade and one man. Blood stained the lake red, but she did not even spare a glance at it.
But there truly were too many people on her tracks. She could not help but be slowed down.
From time to time, a warm liquid would land on Gong Jue\'s body, but it felt so cold, cold that it penetrated deep down to his heart!
This was blood. Was it someone else\'s blood…or Gong Yi Mo\'s?
He did not dare to think about it, much less use any more of his internal power. Due to the amount of blood he lost, he would only make his body even more exhausted if he used his internal power. He can\'t fall unconscious here!
Wake up! Imperial Sister is in danger!
"No good! She\'s trying to enter the city!"
Gong Shi\'s complexion finally changed. Once they enter the city, the dragons will be gathered. They might not be able to catch Gong Yimo!
