Chapter 274: Telling Each Other

Marshal Zhou, who had just walked to the door, was turning his head to the tent to listen to what the Third Prince was saying, but he saw several of the Third Prince's men standing at the door.

"Marshal Zhou, I am Ruofeng, the personal bodyguard of the Third Prince." After Ruofeng looked at Marshal Zhou, he directly reported his identity.

"Ruofeng, you have worked hard accompanying the Third Prince in delivering food." After hearing Ruofeng's introduction, Marshal Zhou's eyes turned and he spoke words of comfort.

"It's not hard. This is what Ruofeng should do." Ruofeng didn't react when he heard Marshal Zhou's words. He just replied indifferently.

"I'll go and see how the welcoming banquet is being prepared." After hearing Ruofeng's reply, Marshal Zhou opened his mouth twice and changed his words.

Under Ruofeng's gaze, Marshal Zhou didn't want to stay at the door, so he found a reliable excuse and walked away swaying.

"Yuer, is it really you?" At this time in the tent, Shangguan Nanxing finally couldn't suppress the joy in his heart anymore and asked with a trembling voice.

"Of course it's me. I'm fine." Su Yue was standing not far from Shangguan Nanxing. She had been keeping her head down before, but now, after Shangguan Nanxing's question, she raised her head and met Shangguan Nanxing's eager gaze.

"That's great. For so many days, I have been worried about you every day, worried about whether you have reached the border, thinking about you every day, wondering if you have eaten well and slept well, and whether everything is going well for you."

When Shangguan Nanxing heard Su Yue's answer, he quickly stepped forward, hugged Su Yue, buried his head in Su Yue's neck, and whispered.

Gu Qingzhi, who was standing by, had seen Marshal Zhou leave and was about to lift the quilt to salute the Third Prince. However, when he heard the Third Prince's sweet words, his right hand froze in mid-air on the quilt.

It seems inappropriate to lift the quilt and salute at this time.

So Gu Qingzhi quietly put down his right hand and pretended that he had not woken up yet.

"I'm fine. I eat well and sleep well." Su Yue stretched out her arms, hugged Shangguan Nanxing, and whispered back. The scent of Shangguan Nanxing was now all around her.

"Everything is fine, everything is fine. It seems that Yun Ye protects you very well. Before, I always wondered if you would encounter bad things, but I couldn't leave Dongyou, so I could only live in fear every day. Now that I see you, I feel relieved."

Shangguan Nanxing noticed the response from the woman in his arms, and his heart became even more excited. He raised his head, looked at Su Yue with deep affection, and told her how hard his life had been in the past few days.

"Yuer, so many days have passed, I want to ask you something." Suddenly Shangguan Nanxing seemed to have thought of something. He rested his forehead against Su Yue's forehead, his nose tip very close to Su Yue, and his expression was full of tenderness.

"If you have anything to ask, just ask directly." Su Yue felt the breath belonging to Shangguan Nanxing, her face suddenly turned red, and her voice was as soft as a mosquito's hum.

"Has Yue'er missed me during this time?" Shangguan Nanxing looked at Su Yue's blushing cheeks and added fuel to the fire.

Su Yue's face turned red, but she didn't say anything.

"I miss Yue'er so much. Yue'er doesn't say anything. Does that mean she doesn't miss me?"

Seeing that Su Yue didn't say anything, Shangguan Nanxing asked again directly, as if he would not give up until Su Yue gave him an answer.

"I..." Su Yue was stunned, but the words "I miss you" were stuck in her throat and she couldn't say them. After all, for Su Yue, it was a rare experience for her to express her feelings so directly.

"It seems that Yue'er really doesn't miss me anymore. I was just wishful thinking a few days ago."

When Shangguan Nanxing saw Su Yue's shy look, he suddenly wanted to tease her, so he spoke with regret and pretended to push Su Yue away.

"No, I... miss you." Su Yue heard the disappointment in Shangguan Nanxing's tone and mustered up the courage to say it out loud, but when she said the words "I miss you", her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.

However, Shangguan Nanxing was close by, so he naturally heard it. His eyes flickered as he looked at Su Yue, who had a shy face.

"Yu'er, raise your head." Shangguan Nanxing's words were a little bewitching, causing Su Yue, who had been shyly lowering her head, to raise her head when she heard the words.

Under her trembling long eyelashes were watery eyes, and the person reflected in her eyes was him, Shangguan Nanxing.

Shangguan Nanxing leaned over, and their lips were about to touch.

But a very discordant voice was heard.

"Yue girl, can you give me an injection or knock me out?"
