Chapter 1382： What's the meaning?

at night.

Huangfu Liyue was lying in the hospital bed without sleep.

She was leaning on her side, staring out the window blankly.

The window in the ward was ajar, and occasionally a few wisps of cool wind would blow in. Outside the window was invisible darkness.

She looked out the window, worried.

It's so late, and I don't know what happened to my mother.

Is the mother very hungry and scared?

Thinking of this, she was upset and couldn't sleep even more.

She sat up, leaned on the bed, picked up the mirror on the bedside table, and illuminated the wound on her face.

The fair skin that could be broken by blowing is now a bit shocking.

She lifted the gauze, she felt a bit crappy.

Seeing nothing, she simply put the mirror back again.

Looking up at the clock on the wall, it was a little late at night.

She knew that she was injured now and needed a rest.

So she lay down again, closed her eyes, and forced herself to sleep.

I don't know how long it took, she finally fell asleep and had that familiar dream.

In the dream, the mother was still in the dark.

But this time, the mother did not ask her for help, but looked at her lovingly, with deep resentment in her eyes.

She wanted to get close to her mother, but there was an invisible wall in front of her separating her from her mother. They could only look at each other, but could not touch.

After looking at each other, she clearly saw tears oozing from her mother's eyes.

"Liyue, leave your mother alone, you and your father will live a good life."

These words seemed to be the final farewell, which made Huangfu Liyue feel inexplicably fearful, and it also made her very scared.

She hurriedly shouted at her mother across the invisible wall in front of her: "Mother, don't be afraid, I will definitely save you!"

But my mother just cried silently, shaking her head, as if there was something unspeakable.

Huangfu Liyue's mother's reaction panicked.

Her desire to rescue her mother is even stronger.

So, she frantically slapped the transparent wall in front of her that separated her from her mother, trying to rush in and rescue her mother.

But the transparent wall was not damaged, but the mother behind the wall gradually disappeared.

"Mother!"

She yelled at her mother, but to no avail, she could only watch her disappear in front of her.

"Mother…"

She squatted desperately on the ground, her heart pierced like a needle.

At the same time, she heard a familiar and gentle voice.

"Liyue, wake up."

When she heard this voice, she opened her eyes suddenly, and finally realized that the scene just now was just a dream.

It's just that this dream is too real, as if everything happened in front of her.

Even if she wakes up from the dream, she still has panic in her heart.

After staring at the ceiling for a few seconds, she realized that there was a man sitting next to her bed, looking at her tenderly.

When she saw the man sitting by the bed clearly, regardless of the pain on her body, she sat up on her back and threw herself directly into his arms.

Mu Jingchen also opened his arms very skillfully and hugged her in his arms.

"Don't be afraid, I am here."

The words that came out of his lips calmed her panic.

She leaned in his arms, her eyes reddened inexplicably.

She was not so vulnerable before.

Maybe it was because someone was pampered, she slowly became less strong.

"Where have you been, why have you only come back now?"

Mu Jingchen stroked her back, chin next to her forehead, and whispered: "Before you called me today, I was still dealing with some things in country E. When I learned that you were injured, I rushed back. Up."

When he said this, he let go, and Huangfu Liyue got up from his arms.

He raised his hand, trying to touch the wound on her face.

But when she first touched her, she slowly retracted her hand for fear of hurting her.

He raised his hand and rubbed her soft long hair, his voice was slightly low, and he blamed himself: "I hurt you again."

Huangfu Liyue shook her head and shook his hand.

"It has nothing to do with you. The situation was more urgent at the time. I didn't expect that this time the injury was just an accident."

Mu Jingchen stared at the gauze on her face, the bandage on her arm, and frowned.

Even though he is good at hiding emotions, there is still a bit of distress in his eyes.

Every time he saw her injured, he would feel extremely blaming himself.

But he couldn't be by her side all the time.

For example, this time, they were so far apart by a country, and when he heard the news of her injury, he couldn't come to her right away.

"Liyue, when these things pass, we will return to Jiangcheng."

In this place where power is supreme, fighting openly and secretly, it is impossible to guard against, and if you are not careful, you will worry about your life.

He doesn't want to live this life every day in the future.

After seeing life and death, he tended to calm down even more.

Huangfu Liyue nodded without hesitation: "Okay, when we find our mother, we will return to Jiangcheng!"

He leaned forward and embraced her again.

"It's late, you are injured, and now you need to rest."

She shook her head.

"Thinking that my mother might still be starving and freezing, I can't sleep."

"The queen still refuses to explain the secret path of the underground palace?"

"She naturally refused. She would rather die with my mother."

Mu Jingchen lowered his head slightly and asked, "Where is the design of the underground palace?"

Speaking of this, Huangfu Liyue got up from his arms, opened the cabinet next to it, and took out the roll of parchment from inside.

"This is the design drawing of the underground palace, but most of it has worn out, and you can't see the original appearance at all."

Mu Jingchen took a look, and as she said, this design drawing no longer shows its true colors.

After a glance, he suddenly felt that the above picture was a bit familiar, which made him feel like deja vu.

Seeing him staring at the parchment, Huangfu Liyue asked, "Did you see anything?"

"No, I have to study it."

As he said, he looked at her and commanded: "Well, let's not talk about it yet, lie down, I will watch you sleep."

It would have worried him, so she had to lie down obediently.

The moment she closed her eyes, she suddenly remembered the purpose of calling him back.

She stared at him blankly with beautiful eyes, and asked curiously: "Jing Chen, how did you mobilize the army of Country E?"

Mu Jingchen pondered for two seconds, and did not intend to hide anything from her again.

So, he took down the dragon pattern on his thumb and brought it to her.

She took it suspiciously, and looked at the finger.

After not seeing any clues, he asked: "What do you mean?"

Mu Jingchen motioned her to look at this finger.

"Do you think the pattern on this finger is very familiar?"

She raised her finger and looked at the pattern inside.

In addition to the fine dragon pattern engraved inside, there are also some strange patterns.

It looks a bit like a logo or a totem.

Looking at the pattern as a whole, it was indeed familiar, but she still didn't see any clues.
