Chương 374: Fruit of my Bad Karma

"Run away?" Jian Guozhi muttered. 

"Yes. I do not want to live here anymore," Nianzu replied and stood up. His steps wavered, but Jian Guozhi held his arm and kept him steady at one place. 

"Brother, Come with me. I will drop you to your chamber," Jian Guozhi offered his help. Nianzu pushed Jian Guozhi away. 

"No, I do not want to go." Nianzu's eyes were getting heavier because of the wine consumption. "Leave m-me alone," requested Nianzu and turned towards the wooden railing of the pavilion. He again sat on that and pulled out the bamboo flute from his sash. He blew the air and a melodious sound was produced. 

Jian Guozhi did not force Nianzu and let him stay alone. He thought of meeting the Crown Princess but since it was late at night, he postponed the plan to the morning. He came to his chamber, where Eunuch Long confusedly looked at him but lowered his eyes.
