256 Chapter 256 “A Change“
CREAK.
The seat made from wood created a noise when Chen stood up and sat at Li Shi Ying seat.
The carriage was moving in a stable pace but since the road was a bit bumpy, Chen movement created another CREAK....sound.
Chen put down Li Shi Ying leg on the seat to be able to sit next to her. Since the carriage was quite spacious, if there were only the two of them inside, each of them could sleep on two different seat.
But Chen couldn't sleep without holding his bunny anymore so he made Li Shi Ying sat normally as he pulled her closer to his body.
THUD.
Li Shi Ying body bumped Chen chest softly and Chen didn't hesitate to wrapped his arm around her waist, locking her within his enbrace.
He didn't know what this feeling is but one thing he knew for sure....
He didn't want to lose his bunny.
Whether it is because she is his 'little sister' or his 'wife' ....he didn't give a damn.
All he wanted now was to kept her in his arm, for as long as he could.
Chen indeed felt insecure ever since he knew that while he was fighting Feng Wang Zi, Li Shi Ying was also fighting a bunch of human. The number was even scary! 1000!
It was a good thing that his bunny didn't lose the battle otherwise...ukh...
Chen looked down at the girl sleeping while leaning her head on his chest.
Her body was hot....
Chen moved his left hand and put his palm on Li Shi Ying forehead carefully, afraid of waking her.
Ah! It's hot!
The moment Chen felt Li Shi Ying body temperature, his heart suddenly felt heavy.
This was all because of him right....he couldn't protect her so she fell sick right...
Chen stroke Li Shi Ying burning cheek gently as he began to re-think about what he had done all this time.
He was someone admired in higher realm. He could do anything he want and he was even a talented crown prince.
But....because he felt doing anything he wanted was a normal thing....he ended up burdening the one he should protected.
He...was the worst...
What's the point of being strong if all he could do was to make trouble for his people? What's the point of avenging his people if that only brought more trouble for them?
Just like the case with the three big family in Dragon Country. He ended up dragging Li Shi Ying, his bunny to the mess he created.
He thought as long as he was there, nothing could harm her but...he fought Feng Wang Zi and let Li Shi Ying fought 1000 people alone, only with the help from her contracted beasts.
So...is was true what Li Shi Ying said to him before...that he was too reckless...he didn't think of the consequences from what he did.
Was this...truly a character fit to be a future emperor..?
This one sentence hit Chen mind hard with realisation.
This....could it be that his grandpa send him to the lower realm...because he wanted him to realize this?
He was indeed confident that he could be a good emperor more than his father as he got everything needed to be emperor.
He got power, he got brain, he got firm heart.
But one thing he lack...it was consideration toward others.
He only believe in himself, believe that all he did was right. He never listen to other people.
And precisely this was what dragging his bunny to this state. Having to fought such a lot humans with only a little army she had.
Chen ended up thinking a lot about his past behaviour. About how reckless and brainless he was. About how his brilliant mind was hidden away because of his cruel attitude. About how his doing harm his bunny instead of protecting her.
That night, something began to change the stubborn, arrogant dragon. To a better direction.
The next morning....
"Mm mmm..." Li Shi Ying body felt sore here and there even though she believe that she had lay down several blanket on her seat to made it fluffy.
...? Mn? Why she couldn't move?
Li Shi Ying still didn't know that she was being hugged in Chen embrace up until now so she found it weird that she couldn't move.
She began to realize something was wrong....when she saw a hand on her waist.
....hand? Was it her hand? But both of her hands are here...
Li Shi Ying looked to the empty seat across here accidentally and suddenly...she had a bad feeling.
She remembered Chen was sleeping on the seat across her seat so where was he?!
Li Shi Ying nearly made her guess when she heard a noise sounded right behind her ear.
"Mmmh....don't move around..." Chen tighten his grip on Li Shi Ying as he still maintained his position.
...E-eh? Eh? This voice....isn't this...CHEN???!!!
W-why is he behind her?????
