Nie Shuangcheng looked at Yulixiao. He gently raised his hand and didn't say a word.
"Princess, go to the carriage."
Nie Shuangcheng waved his hand, allowing his men to untie Yun Qin from the horses and put him back into the cage.
"General Nie, please take care of him."
Yu Yan lowered her voice, and looked at Nie Shuangcheng with longing.
Nie Shuangcheng sighed and nodded, allowing others to escort him back to Chi Cheng.
It's good to have someone who is truly in love with you, but it's not a good thing to change your mind. Nie Shuangcheng was worried that Yu Yan would become Yulixiao's weak spot and become the best weapon for others to attack him.
Yu Yan turned her head. Yulixiao was still standing by the side of the horse carriage, calmly looking at her. She walked quickly over to him, glanced at him, and climbed up on the little bench the guards had laid out.
He was completely drenched. The wind blew in and he could not help but sneeze.
Yulixiao sat up and stared at her for a while before taking off his wet clothes.
The carriage jolted along the main road, its wheels sinking into the mud from time to time.
Yu Yan used his right hand to untie the belt around his neck. When her water red silk clothes slipped down, he used his right hand to cover the jade ball in front of him. Yu Yan hurriedly grabbed a pillow to block her way, and lightly leaned back.
"Alright, I don't have that intention either." His long eyebrows were locked, his gaze fixed on her shoulder.
The herbs on her shoulders were all wet. She had to change them. The white cloth was torn apart layer by layer, and the last bit of blood and medicine was stuck onto the wound. With a gentle pull, it caused Yu Yan to grimace in pain, and she cried out continuously.
"Are you afraid of pain?" Yulixiao said in a low voice.
Yu Yan frowned, looked up at him and whispered: "Why am I not afraid of pain, I am most afraid of pain."
Yulixiao pursed his lips and ignored her. He pulled out the dagger from the side. The snow-white tip of the dagger cut the cloth on his skin little by little, revealing his shoulder that was painted green with medicine. The wound on the sword opened up maliciously, and blood started to seep out.
Originally, she wanted to sew it up, but it was too painful. Yu Yan could not take it anymore, she had only managed to sew up the poison, but after being drenched in the rain, she was afraid that she would not be able to escape.
"Bai Chengan should be here soon. Let him sew it up for you." he whispered as he dabbed some of the wine with the handkerchief and rubbed it over her wound.
If the alcohol was used to stimulate the wound, then what was the point?
Yu Yan was in so much pain that she was sweating profusely. Her toes were bent and she was panting so hard that she looked like she was about to suffocate at any time.
Yulixiao did not have any hands to endure. At this early summer, if her wounds were slightly untreated, it would make her suffer even more. After wiping the rain from her wounds, he applied medicine to her and lightly wrapped her in a white, dry cloth.
His movements were very slow. After doing all this, he had long since left Jingzhou City and ran dozens of miles.
Yu Yan's face was so pale white that it was hard to look at, but the red spot on her forehead continued to grow, trying its best to crawl onto her right cheek.
Yulixiao raised his finger to look at her chin, then shifted his gaze away. Looking at her pale lips, he pressed his finger against it and said:
"Once, when I brought you out of the city, Yun Qin was outside the carriage and you were inside, but you guys were actually so bold that you could secretly hold hands … I wanted to cut his hand off. "
Yu Yan trembled. So she had seen it! He slowly raised her head and stared at Qin Wentian. His black pupils were like stars, shining with a sharp light.
"In this life, I've never been jealous of anyone, but I'm very jealous of that kid. You've carved him …" Yulixiao said slowly, pointing a finger at her heart. "You really put your life on the line for him."
"Aren't I in a hurry?" Yu Yan's face slowly flushed red. With one hand on his forehead, he furrowed his brows and asked: "Is this medicine of any use to you?"
"Even if it's really painful, your act is too fake." He gave a little chuckle, grabbed her loose hair, and threw it in her face.
Yu Yan was extremely embarrassed, she could only endure this swing of his wet hair, and did not need to use her hands to cut off the hair on his face, as she just looked at him through the mess in his hair.
If you don't know how to feign ignorance, just hide. Hiding like this is much better!
"Hurry up and take off your hair!" His tone was somewhat disgusted.
This unkempt woman only used a cushion to lean on her beautiful body. She should have been filled with a charming beauty. Her hair was like a chicken's nest as she leaned her head … Other than Yu Yan, who else in the world would be able to ruin his mood and give him the cold water?
Yu Yan pulled down her hair, turned her back to Yue Yang and started putting on her clothes.
After all, his hand was injured, he couldn't lift it, and he couldn't tie the straps of his undergarment. Ye Zichen frowned for a while, then couldn't help but turn his head to look at him.
He sat cross-legged, looking at her with a strange, complicated, thoughtful, inquisitive look in his eyes.
"Help me tie it up." she whispered, blushing.
Only now did Yulixiao regain his senses, his huge body leaned over and gently pinched the two strings, wanting to learn how to make a fancy knot from the woman, but somehow, it ended up becoming a dead knot. And because she used too much strength, it caused her chest to be flat …
"Eh …" Yu Yan quickly turned her head again and asked softly, "Is this revenge?"
"How would I dare?" He lowered his gaze to look at her. In his eyes, it was clear that her charming face was filled with shame and resentment.
Yu Yan bit her lips, stared at him for a while, then raised her head and closed her eyes.
She was waiting for him to kiss her.
According to common sense, if she were to raise her head, that Overlord would be on the verge of softening his heart, bringing his burning hot and soft lips close to hers, deeply impacting her lips into the world.
But after waiting for a long while, without waiting for even the slightest movement, Yu Yan turned embarrassed. She covered her face with one hand, hurriedly turned around, put on her clothes, and laid down on the pile of soft blankets.
His low laughter entered his ears, first low, then clear.
Yu Yan was even more embarrassed. Her neck was sore, and he immediately smiled and used her legs to kick his stomach, and even grinded it a few times with force.
He caught her foot and said hastily, "Are you trying to be a widow?"
Yu Yan reacted, she had just kicked away a place, and became even more embarrassed. She burrowed her head into the blanket, and acted like a turtle hiding its head.
Yulixiao was afraid that he would hurt her shoulder, so he didn't play with her too much. He pulled the blanket over her and covered it tightly, sitting himself on the side while reading a book.
The medicine had an analgesic and hypnotic effect. After tucking herself in the blanket for a while and listening to the sound of him flipping the pages, she drowsily reached over and grabbed the corner of his shirt, falling into a deep sleep.
His dreams did not become quiet because of him being by his side. On the contrary, the Yu Yan of today actually faintly felt a sense of fear for Yulixiao.
He made people torture Yun Qin so he understood one thing. Yulixiao was the king among the strong, he would not show mercy to anyone, and today, he would take a step back. What if one day, his love for her no longer exists? Could the love of a king last a long time? Take a look at her face. Not only would his beauty grow old, but would the red blush that was about to spread across her face allow him to continue liking her?
Yu Yan was stunned by the nightmare. Inside the dream, his father was being attacked by a few wooden staffs with iron spikes on them. The scene changed again. In the darkness, four horses were pulling Yun Qin's hands and feet as they moved towards four different directions. Yun Qin called out her nickname.
She sat up suddenly, sweating.
The carriage lurched forward, and when she turned to look, he was lying beside her, watching her silently. Seeing that she was still gasping for breath, he passed her a brocade handkerchief.
Yu Yan's sharp eyes had seen that there were quite a few bloodstains on the back of his hand. Obviously, they were not there before, needless to say, that it was her who had grabbed him in her dreams. She hesitated, wiped her sweat, and sat up on her knees to drink from her water bag.
"Yu Yan, you're afraid of me." His voice came from behind him.
Yu Yan's back froze for a moment, then she pulled the stopper out and drank a mouthful of water before hanging it up again. She slowly finished her work, crawled to the window, and looked around to see how big the storm was.
"I'm talking to you." He nudged her with his foot, with some displeasure, and gave her a light kick on the buttocks.
"I heard you. Aren't you thinking of what to say?" Yu Yan pushed his feet away and whispered, "Don't move your hands or feet, you haven't even washed your feet yet …"
"You …" Yulixiao's face darkened, he kicked her again, causing her to sit on the quilt.
"Eh …" Yu Yan's painful hand just happened to be on the ground, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
Yulixiao quickly bent over and supported her.
Yu Yan took a long time to digest the pain, she looked at him mournfully, and said softly: "Look … Life and death, pain and joy, they were all tightly grasped by you, how could I not be afraid? "
"You …" He gritted his teeth in hatred … "I told you to pretend …"
When he pressed her onto the quilt, the roots of his teeth began to itch. Seeing her acting so cowardly, he couldn't help but want to viciously scratch her a few times.
Yu Yan giggled, bit her lips, and closed her eyes again. She gently raised her face up and once again took the initiative to wait for him to kiss her.
If he still isn't close … Not yet … Not yet …
Her breathing quickened, and she pressed an arm to his head.
The lips were tightly pressed together, as if they were stuck with thick honey. Occasionally, they would be gently parted before quickly sticking back together.
It was unknown when the two of them had already become entangled with each other, but the carriage suddenly jolted and he took the opportunity to charge forward, directly attacking into her city …
Yu Yan had to protect his shoulders and also prevent him from doing anything bad. She was extremely busy, to the point of scratching her ears and cheeks.
"A bit more to the left …"
"Hey, hey, my arm …"
"Prince, why don't you just directly remove my arm …"
"Am I going to be reincarnated, Yulixiao? You're hurting me! I'm not a piece of tofu, why would you hit me so hard? "
Yulixiao did not know whether to laugh or cry.
"Can you shut up?"
"It really hurts. Where is your interest coming from? Or do you want to be so stingy that you have to take revenge for holding hands and make the people in the cage drag them down? Yulixiao, I would rather be more foolish than to see through your thoughts … "
Yu Yan looked at him gloomily, raising her hand to cover his mouth, not allowing him to continue cursing at her.
She was truly afraid of him in her heart, but how could she be the type of person to hide behind if she was afraid? She was afraid of death, but she had always recklessly provoked him …
Or like she said, wasn't it because she knew that he had her in his heart at the moment that she was acting recklessly?
