Chapter 489: Life and Death

After what happened at the Lu family, Wei Shijun never thought that she would kiss someone again in her life.

Before this, she thought that no matter who it was, she would beat the other person down. Even if she couldn't win, she would bite the other person's mouth until it bled.

But she didn't.

When she fell off her horse, there were horses' hooves trampling around her and the enemy's swords were raised high above her head. She thought she was going to die here.

At the moment of her death, what she was thinking about was that she had not had the chance to try out married life with Lin Lanting.

Faced with life and death, she suddenly felt that her previous hesitation, awkwardness, and affectation were so meaningless. She had actually fallen in love with him a long time ago. Otherwise, after wandering around the world for so many years, why did she choose Lin Lanting to be the father of her child?

Lin Lanting's kiss was very gentle, as if cherishing a rare treasure, softly pecking, tenderly and tenderly with a hint of caution.

Wei Shijun's eyelashes trembled slightly and slowly closed.

Lin Guozhang was originally helping to treat the wounded soldiers in the wounded camp. When he heard that his future daughter-in-law was injured, he bandaged the wounded at hand and hurried here.

What we ended up seeing was the two of them kissing each other.

Lin Guozhang seemed unable to believe it. He wiped his eyes to make sure he was not mistaken, then bent down and stepped back.

After being engaged for so long, little Junjun also came to the battlefield to look for Lao Shuzhuang's son, but the two of them made no progress at all.

But he was so worried.

He either suspected that Xiao Junjun didn't like Lao Shuzhuang's son, or he was worried that Lao Shuzhuang was too stubborn to know how to get along with a girl.

He had already made up his mind that after the war, he must buy some love storybooks for Old Tree Stump to help him open his mind.

I didn't expect that it would come to my mind so quickly. The surprise came so suddenly.

He covered his mouth, squinted his eyes, and smiled sweetly.

It seemed as if everyone saw the little grandson wearing a small bellyband, staggering towards him, calling out, "Grandpa."

Just as the word "good grandson" was about to slip out from Lin Guozhang's cracked lips, a light cough interrupted his beautiful fantasy.

Lin Lanting appeared before him, tall and graceful. "Father, Shijun is injured. The war is at a stalemate right now. I can't stay here for too long. Please help me take good care of Shijun."

This is a border town. Although there are maids and servants, in Lin Lanting's heart, they are not as reliable as his father.

"Until her wounds heal, no matter how much you pester her, hang yourself, cry, or whatever, you must not let her go to the battlefield again. Otherwise, if anything happens to her, you will lose your son."

The first part of his words sounded normal, but as soon as he said the second part, Lin Guozhang slapped his son on the back of the head, "Pooh, pooh, pooh, children talk without restraint, what nonsense are you talking about.

You all should be good to me, get out of here and go do your own thing. I only have one daughter-in-law, how can I not take care of her?"

Lin Lanting did not leave, but sent Lin Guozhang to get food for Wei Shijun.

"Is Uncle Lin gone?"

Wei Shijun injured her back and was lying on the bed. She was still a little embarrassed because of the kiss just now and didn't dare to look at Lin Lanting.

"Well, father went to get you some food."

Lin Lanting used two pillows to raise the quilt beside her so that it would not press on her wound and would not make her cold.

After fixing the quilt, he loosened her hair, combed it gently with his fingers, and then tied her shiny black hair loosely with a silk ribbon. Everything seemed so natural.

Wei Shijun had a strange feeling in her heart. This was obviously the first time he did this for her, but it seemed that because of the closeness just now, they suddenly became more compatible and familiar with each other.

Thinking of the intimacy just now, her ears felt hot uncontrollably.

Lin Lanting unexpectedly asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"Thinking about what you just said."

She had long imagined herself becoming a brave general like her father and wanting to make meritorious contributions to improve her status. This idea only came to her mind when she decided to come find Lin Lanting.

Even Qingyan didn't know, but he knew what she was thinking.

Lin Lanting finished everything and sat down on the floor beside her bed. Their eyes were level, and his dark eyes reflected a tenderness that was not usually there, and he continued with what he had not finished.

“It’s my incompetence to make you feel that you need countless military merits to be worthy of standing by my side.

Shijun, do you know what it feels like to be afraid of losing and to have your heart broken?

I know, I just experienced it. It was the feeling of the sky collapsing and the earth splitting apart in an instant, and my blood running cold.

I never want to experience that feeling again. I still won't tie you down, but I've decided to be with you through life and death.

So, Shijun, for my sake, can you cherish yourself?"

Wei Shijun's heart trembled, and she looked up at Lin Lanting.

In the past, he always looked clean and neat, but with the frequent wars these days, he probably hadn't trimmed his beard for a long time. The hard, short beard grew around his chin, making his handsome face look haggard.

He was still wearing armor, which was covered with dried black blood and dark red blood. Some of it was her blood, and he didn't even have time to wipe it off. From the moment he came back until now, all his thoughts were on her.

"You really don't mind?"

Don't you mind my past?

There are no eternal secrets in this world. When she is not doing well, perhaps no one will slander her with those shameful things, but if she is doing well, some old things may be dug up by others.

At least, the two people from the Lu family don't wish her well.

"All the problems you worry about will not be problems."

Lin Lanting raised his hand and placed it on her forehead, smoothing back her hair that had been messed up because she raised her head. "To be honest, I sent people to the Lu family, but I underestimated them. Two people were ambushed by them.

But we also found your former maid and a servant of the Lu family. They were hiding in a small town on the orders of the second son of the Lu family.

The second son of the Lu family said that if the Lu family is in trouble, he will use your case to trade with the Crown Princess. I have already sent a letter to them to deal with those two people promptly, and also sent a letter to inform the Crown Princess of this matter.

This was the first time they talked about what happened back then directly.

Wei Shijun stared at him without blinking, wanting to see something in his eyes, but also afraid of what she might see.

Lin Lanting's big hand covered her head and rubbed it gently, "Shijun, I am a man, your man.

The prince once said to me, if I accept you, I will accept all of you and not use your scars to slander you in the future.

Otherwise, he and the Crown Princess would never forgive me, but what makes my heart beat faster is you of today, and you of today are the result of all the changes in the past.

So, don't have any wild thoughts. I'm a warrior, and I'm already old. I finally have a girl I like. Although I'm very happy, I'm not very good at sentimental words.

But remember, Lin Lanting is a real man, and once he says something, his heart will never change.

So, Shijun, please don't make things difficult for your husband from now on. Let's live a good life together, okay?"

Wei Shijun was moved at first, but after hearing the last sentence, she couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Your tone..."

He really looks like my old father.

But think about it, Lin Lanting is indeed not young anymore, and she is not young anymore, they really shouldn't waste time anymore.

She hooked her finger and said, "Come closer."

Lin Lanting thought she was going to say something to him.

But what was imprinted on him were her soft lips, “Although Wei Shijun is a woman, she is not someone who makes decisions lightly, but now that I am determined to hold your heart, I will never let go.

So, you have no chance to regret it, Lin Lanting, you said that we would be together through life and death, I remember that."

"good."

Lin Lanting bent his lips and kissed her forehead in return, "I will be with you through life and death, and I will never regret it."
