I Have a Date with a Thousand-year-old Female Corpse-Chapter 1851 - 1852: The Beauty Still Remains

Chapter 1851: Chapter 1852: The Beauty Still Remains
Fueled by an unknown surge of energy, you who had been unable to move even a finger suddenly sat up on the bed.
An oppressive force, causing Zou Nan to feel suffocated, burst from your body, increasing the pressure on her manifold, making even breathing difficult for her.
Suppressing a strong impulse to explode, you stared fixedly at Zou Nan, articulating each word: "What on earth is going on?"
"When they were escaping, they were chased by Zhang Xiu’s men. At that time, among those besieging them were also people from the Ghost King. During the breakout, Ren Hongchang was severely injured trying to save Zhao Yu, and later, as they had almost climbed over the city wall, Ren Hongchang was hit by several arrows and fell into the moat..."
At this point, Zou Nan could say no more.
An intense feeling of suffocation enveloped Zou Nan, as if her throat were being strangled by strong hands; at the same time, the way you appeared before her seemed less like a patient and more like a wounded ferocious beast! Zou Nan dared not meet your gaze, as, in that moment, she experienced a terrifying illusion of being devoured.
This sensation lasted for over ten seconds before receding like the tide.
You sank into deathly silence, your eyes shut tight, speaking no more.
After a moment’s silence, Zou Nan sighed deeply and said, "The dead cannot rise again; your injury is severe. During this time..."
Seeing you not responding to her, Zou Nan knew saying more was pointless, sighed once again, then slowly closed her eyes, plunging the room into an unusual silence.
After ten days of quiet recuperation, you could finally walk normally. Although your body hadn’t fully recovered, dealing with ordinary enemies was no problem.
You seemed unusually grim compared to usual.
Firstly, you weren’t very familiar with the setting of this world; though it’s the Three Kingdoms Period, it’s not the Three Kingdoms you knew. So, you and your wives haven’t traveled back in time to ancient China.
Instead, you’ve entered a very peculiar world, just like the Map of Kingdom.
Secondly, you don’t know what effect dying in this whole world would have on the original world.
This realization further strengthened your determination to leave this entire world.
After dressing neatly, you prepared to push the door open and step out when your right hand just reached out, and the door was opened by someone outside.
The person outside was naturally Zou Nan. She had been taking care of you these ten days, which, for a sect leader, was a first-ever experience. You could say you were the first man Zou Nan had been so close to and looked after. Beforehand, she hadn’t even touched a man’s hand, let alone held a cloth to wipe your body.
You were grateful to Zou Nan. But precisely because of her foolish action, it indirectly led to Ren Hongchang’s death. You couldn’t hate Zou Nan; all you could do was strengthen your power and, one day, slaughter the Xiliang Army!
"You’re not fully healed yet; you shouldn’t go out." Zou Nan blocked you with her hands.
You hadn’t said a word these days, not even breathed loudly. And now it was still the same, just looking quietly at Zou Nan.
Though having been with you for such a short time, the silent interactions in these days made Zou Nan somewhat understand your temperament. Although you usually seemed carefree, as if you dismissed everyone in the world, you were actually someone who was deeply emotional. Ren Hongchang’s death had a huge impact on you. Zou Nan knew that if she didn’t give a reason, you would forcibly leave no matter what, and when you did, you’d definitely leave some "souvenir" for the Xiliang Army.
"I saw Ren Hongchang."
You didn’t speak, just frowned.
"I’m not lying to you. In the morning when I went to the medical hall to fetch medicine, I found a sedan chair at the door of the medical hall, and Ren Hongchang was inside. However, her face was deathly pale, and she didn’t look fully recovered. It’s just..." Zou Nan hesitated here.
"Just what?"
Hearing that Ren Hongchang was still alive, you seemed to come back to life, stepping forward and gripping Zou Nan’s shoulders, your expression eager.
"But her identity is very strange. She is actually Situ Wang Yun’s adopted daughter, and also an official in the imperial palace; I heard people outside call her Diao Chan."
Upon hearing the familiar names "Wang Yun" and "Diao Chan," a thought suddenly flashed through your mind, and you finally understood why you felt a sense of familiarity upon initially hearing the name Ren Hongchang. You had read an article mentioning that Diao Chan was just a title for a female official during the Han Dynasty, and Diao Chan’s real name might have been Ren Hongchang!
"Since you already saw her, why didn’t you bring her here?"
You seemed to realize the critical point.
Zou Nan sighed as you pointed out the crux, saying: "Through many inquiries, I learned that Diao Chan was rescued by Wang Yun during a journey outside. She seems to have lost her past memories, not even remembering her own name. I can’t reveal my identity rashly, or else you’d be in danger."
"Wang Yun, Wang Yun."
You hadn’t expected to nearly trip over your own plan; the beauty trap was initially your suggestion to Wang Yun, who ironically used it against your own woman.
"No! I must see her immediately!"
"How do you plan to get around in your current state?" Zou Nan still blocked your way. "Recently, the whole city is hunting for you; even the walls outside this Cai Mansion have your portraits hanging. Anytime those Xiliang soldiers see an injured stranger, they stop to interrogate them. With your temperament, you’re sure to clash with them!"
You were in a rush because you clearly understood Ren Hongchang’s predicament— you must take Ren Hongchang away before Wang Yun’s banquet for Lü Bu and Dong Zhuo; otherwise, it would be too late.
"You make it seem like you know me so well!" you said, trying to move Zou Nan aside.
Zou Nan didn’t retreat; instead, she stepped forward, causing your hand to fall on her towering, soft bosom.
"I do know you! In these twenty days, I’ve spent fifteen nights wiping your body while you were asleep. I know every inch of your body enormously well. During these twenty nights, you repeatedly called out several women’s names, with Zhao Yu being the most frequent, followed by..."
"Enough!" You withdrew your hand and interrupted Zou Nan, decidedly annoyed. "What does this have to do with you!? Why do you stop me!"
"Because you cut my long hair, ruined everything for me, because the last name you called was mine, because you took my virginity three days ago!"
Today, Zou Nan finally burst out, fully unleashing the feelings she had suppressed within.
