57. Believe (2)
Murong Yan seemed to laugh a little and said, “It’s true that everyone is selfish, but I can tell you this. There will be someone who will think what you think, hate what you hate, and completely take your interests as their own. Do you believe it or not?”
Yu Qingjia also laughed.
Which woman in her teenage years did not have a dream of marrying a good husband, who loves and cares for her?
However, she could not even count on her own father, how can she count on her future husband who she did not even know his whereabouts?
Also, will a cruel, and ruthless person like Murong Yan believe the story of the young girl in her boudoir?
(T/N: Definitely! Afterall you’re talking to him right now~ Gosh I can’t wait for her to find out everything!)
Yu Qingjia is really tired, so she rests her head on Murong Yan’s shoulder, and her eyes were gradually closing tightly, but her mouth is still hung with an amused expression, “I don’t believe it.”
It’s really difficult for Murong Yan to say such childish words in order to comfort her.
After turning a corner, and passing through the moon gate, they finally arrived at the courtyard of the second household.
Yin Zhu heard the sound of the door opening, and hurriedly ran out to see that it was surprisingly Murong Yan who had returned with Yu Qingjia on his back.
The scene in front of her was completely unexpected, Yin Zhu was dumbfounded and asked, “Miss, why are you outside so early? No, isn’t Miss supposed to be serving Yu Laojun, why are you back?”
Murong Yan coldly swept Yin Zhu at a glance, Yin Zhu’s eyes locked with Murong Yan’s, and the words that she was about to let out, were eventually turned into muffled silence.
“Miss seems to be asleep…”
Murong Yan took Yu Qingjia back to her room and laid her down on the bed.
Yin Zhu saw his action, and she quickly rushed forward to take over, but Murong Yan expressionless looked back at her, Yin Zhu was frozen into place, she suddenly did not dare to move again.
Yin Zhu wisely retreated and quietly closed the door.
After she left, Murong Yan sat on the edge of the bed and gazed longingly at Yu Qingjia’s sleeping face.
She was too sleepy on the road and fell asleep before she made it home.
It seems that after she finally came into contact with her soft bed, her slightly wrinkled brow gradually relaxed, and her breathing also stabilized.
When Yu Qingjia was awake, her eyes were always lively, her smile was sweet, and people focused more on her dynamics, so it was hard to notice that Yu Qingjia was not actually such a cheerful and lively-looking person.
Only when she falls asleep, can they realize how weak, soft and vulnerable Yu Qingjia really is.
Yu Qingjia’s eyelashes quietly closed, her face was pale, the only conspicuous color on her face was her red lips.
She is as beautiful as Jade, with a quiet, and defenseless sleeping face, the more one looks at it, the more one finds it sinful.
Murong Yan looked at her for a long time, he then reached out to tuck her quilt tightly.
He asked Yu Qingjia if she ever believed that there would be someone, someday who would take her interests as his own, and her love and hate as his own, but Yu Qingjia said no.
In fact, before he said this, Murong Yan also did not believe it.
He stretched out his fingers and gently covered Yu Qingjia’s eyes.
Her long and slender eyelashes fluttered slightly in his hand, seemingly tickling, as if it was just his illusion.
“It’s really strange. You’re obviously the weakest one I know, but your courage is surprisingly big, you’re always thinking of saving others.”—MY to YQJ
“It is a parents duty to protect their daughters, and a husband’s duty to protect their wives and daughters, so why are you choosing to step up?” —MY to himself
(T/N: MY is doing a monologue.)
This is probably an emotion that Murong Yan will never be able to understand.
Yet the more pressed he was, the more curious he became, the easier it is for him to be attracted.
Humans are really contradictory creatures, Yu Qingjia is passionate and righteous, while Murong Yan is ruthless and cold, but if you ask Yu Qingjia if she believes that someone will treat her better than she treats herself, she would say no.
However, Murong Yan would believe it.

Yu Qingjia slept extraordinarily well, and when she woke up, she found that the light in the courtyard was dim.
Apparently, it was dark outside again.
I guess when she fell asleep earlier, she slept the entire day.
Yu Qingjia got up in a daze.
She did not close her eyes last night, so she slept too long today, which resulted in her current heavy head and weak body.
As soon as Yu Qingjia moved, she suddenly saw a person passing behind the screen, and a cup of tea appeared in front of her eyes.
The other person’s fingers holding the dark green tea cup are slender and well-proportioned, it was surprisingly more transparent than the blue glaze.
Yu Qingjia paused for a while, then blurted out, “What are you doing here?”
Murong Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked, “Then who else should be here?”
‘What does he mean, who else?’
Yu Qingjia only meant why would Murong Yan suddenly appear in her room, why is his attention always on strange things?
Yu Qingjia was almost stupefied by his response, she massaged her forehead, and sighed,
“Forget it, I’m too lazy to argue with you. Why didn’t you go back to rest? You haven’t slept all night either. Look at the time! It’s almost the next day!”
Murong Yan has better Stamina than Yu Qingjia, and he seemed as energetic and responsive as if he wasn’t the one who hadn’t closed his eyes for two days and a night.
In the past, when he was still in the night city, it was so common for him to stay awake for days and nights because he was out hunting.
Now, he just stands and sits inside the courtyard, and the amount of stamina required is basically zero compared to when he was hunting, this is why this little amount of effort is basically an insignificant matter for Murong Yan.
