Chapter 878 Their Rtionship Changed Drastically (Part Two)


    When Rndo didn''t respond for a few more minutes, Harper stood up with the intention of leaving.


    There was nothing in there that belonged to her, so she didn''t have to pack any luggage. She just


    needed to leave the pce with her maid.

    "The Heavenly Book... Don''t you want it anymore?" Rndo softly asked while Harper was walking


    past him.


    When those two words were uttered, Harper was stopped in her tracks. She quickly turned around to


    face Rndo. Looking at him, she didn''t utter a single word.


    Rndo looked Harper into her eyes, without the least intention of avoiding her stare. "Harper, don''t


    you want the Heavenly Book?" he repeated.


    Harper took a deep breath, turned around once again, and continued to walk away from him.


    "Once you step out of the Harmony Pce today, I will destroy the Heavenly Book in my hands,"


    Rndo stated in an extremely gentle voice while looking at Harper''s receding figure.


    Frowning a little, Harper asked, "Are you threatening me?"


    "I''m not threatening you, Harper. The Heavenly Book is utterly useless to me, but it has a different


    meaning to you, right?" Rndo was well-aware that Harper was the only living descendant of the Qin


    n. Because of this, the Heavenly Book was more useful to her than to anyone else.


    Harper turned her head back and looked at the calm expression on Rndo''s face. "You won''t destroy


    it. If the Heavenly Book is useless to you, you wouldn''t have stayed in the Bright Dynasty for five years


    in the first ce."


    With his unique smile stered on his face, Rndo said, "You can give it a try, Harper. Wait and see if


    I will stay true to my words. But we both know that once I destroy the Heavenly Book, you wouldn''t find


    it anywhere else in the entire world."


    The expression on Harper''s face froze. She looked at Rndo with her eyes full ofplicated


    emotions. She didn''t know why her rtionship with Rndo had changed dramatically overnight.


    Ironically, Rndo had been restraining himself until yesterday, but what had happened became the


    prompt that he didn''t restrain himself anymore.


    "Is it really necessary for you to do that to me?" Harper asked. She then firmly closed her eyes and


    when she opened them again, her eyes looked extremely clear.


    Rndo knew exactly what Harper meant, but he would never be willing to let go of her. If what had


    happened yesterday did not happen, he could continue to hide his true feelings as he had always done.


    But after being subjected to yesterday''s events, he had once again clearly seen his own affections


    towards Harper. He realized that he had not been simply using her. Instead, he had unconsciously


    fallen in love with her already, and he could not stop loving her. Such being the case, he would not give


    up.


    He stretched out his arm to touch Harper''s face with the back of his hand. He did it so cautiously as if


    he was cherishing a treasure. "I hadn''t wanted to destroy the Heavenly Book until yesterday. But today,


    once you step out of the pce, I will certainly get rid of it. I will keep my word. Last night, you stayed


    up all night... Kaaahhkkk..."


    Rndo suddenly covered his mouth with his hand while coughing terribly. Before long, blood flowed


    down between his fingers, which extremely startled Harper. She watched as Rndo coughed so


    violently that he even bent over. Subconsciously, she held and supported him. Then she felt his pulse,


    only to find out that the poison in his body had not been detoxified yet. What was happening now was a


    result of how Rndo was trying his best to suppress the poison with all of his internal force.


    "Do you want to die?" she asked.


    Rndo awkwardly wiped the blood from his mouth. "I''m fine; just need to have some rest..."


    "You''re saying that you''re fine? Look at you! Do you think you''re made of iron?" Harper furiously


    eximed. Then, she helped Rndo lie down on the bed while he still struggled to get up.


    "I''m fine, really, I..."


    "If you don''t want me to knock you out, you''d better listen to me!" Harper frantically eximed.


    Upon hearing that, Rndo fell silent and stopped struggling. He just let Harper help him lie down. She


    then untied his waistband, took off his clothes, and gave a quick acupuncture treatment on his skin in


    order to steady the surging internal force inside his body.


    From beginning to end, Rndo just quietly gazed at Harper with his tender eyes. He found that


    Harper cared about his health condition very much. He wondered then if he had a ce in her heart.


    Although he had lost to Matthew because he came to her life a littleter than Matthew did, he would


    not admit defeat so easily.


    "Patrick," Harper called the little beast after she had stabilized the surging internal force inside


    Rndo''s body.


    At that moment, Patrick was on the table. With its arms crossed over its chest, it looked out of the door,


    as if it was still mad at Harper for pressing its head into the bathtub. It didn''t seem to be willing to talk to


    her.


    "It seems like you don''t want to have the pills that I''ve just developed. I was going to let you try some.


    Well, now that you don''t want to take them, then I guess I''ll just have to throw them away..."


    "Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!" When it heard that there were pills for it, Patrick flung itself into Harper''s


    arms. It excessively swept around with its little tail and looked at Harper in an obsequious manner. If it


    could speak like a human, it must be a very unscrupulous smooth-tongued talker.


    While looking at how Harper and the beast interacted, Rndo thought that he was watching a very


    beautiful scene. He then realized that what Sean had said was true. As long as Harper was by his side,


    he would feel very happy. Even if he did nothing but look at her quietly like at that moment, he still felt


    calm and content. He couldn''t let go of her. Even though he knew that his persistence would disgust


    her, there was no way that he could just let her go.


    While Rndo was absentmindedly staring at Harper, lost in his thoughts, Patrick suddenly bit the back


    of his hand. When Rndo was about to draw back his hand out of pain, Patrick loosened its teeth. It


    looked at Harper in the same obsequious manner as earlier, and Harper gave it a porcin bottle.


    Then, Patrick squatted down and yed with the bottle, no longer caring about the two people. Harper


    bandaged Rndo''s wound carefully, as if nothing had happened.
