"Silly girl, I really want to devour you whole." The deep, husky voice was filled with endless ambiguity.
Nangong Ziyan suddenly raised her head, "You men! Your minds are full of those kinds of things."
Nangong Ziyan tried to push Beiming Haotian away, but he held her even tighter. "Yan'er, haven't you heard the saying 'When you're full and satisfied, you think of lust'? Besides, you are the woman I love."
His sensual thin lips deliberately approached Nangong Ziyan's jade ear, the warm breath making Nangong Ziyan's body tremble slightly. Satisfied with the result, Bei Ming Haotian still did not let go. Who would have thought that he, who was cold and aloof in front of outsiders, would have such a tender side in front of her?
This was the first time he had said he loved her in front of her, and Nangong Ziyan was undoubtedly the happiest person in her heart.
"I don't want to hear that first sentence again." Nangong Ziyan glared fiercely at Beiming Haotian. In the whole world, only she was so bold as to act so recklessly in front of Beiming Haotian. "However..."
"But what?"
Bei Ming Haotian's thoughts followed her uncontrollably.
"But the last sentence is the most beautiful sentence I've ever heard you say."
In the blink of an eye, Nangong Ziyan's face was beaming with joy, radiating happiness.
Bei Minghaotian was taken aback. The contrast between her joy and anger was too great. But then he thought about it and realized that this side of her made him even more infatuated with her.
"Hurry up and go inside, or we won't be able to finish our work."
As you walk further in, it gets a bit chilly, and there are twenty-five wine jars on the ground.
"Yan'er, you only brewed twenty-five jars this year. With me added, is that enough to drink?"
Bei Ming Haotian counted them and said.
"Haotian, this isn't meant to be eaten as a meal, but rather to be enjoyed in small sips when you're happy. Yan'er didn't expect to meet you this year, so I didn't make one for you."
"Then why did you ask me for help?"
Bei Ming Haotian was somewhat reluctant.
"That's because you'll be drinking this year too, so you have to put in the effort. You're a grown man, why are you being so fussy? Hurry up and open the wine jar, put in the spices and peach blossoms, and after that, you have to bury the wine underground for several months before you can drink it."
"So troublesome?" Bei Ming Haotian walked over, opened a jar, and asked with some surprise, "Yan'er, isn't this wine?"
"Haotian, the wine is still in the big earthenware jar in front of you. These are colorless spices that can remove the red color from the peach blossoms. After a few months, once it's taken out of the jar, the peach blossoms will be filtered out, and then the steamed and extracted rice wine and these spices will be added. That's how you make peach blossom wine. No, it should be called peach blossom intoxication. This is just a simple explanation. If I were to explain it in detail, it would be too complicated to explain in a short time."
Nangong Ziyan said smugly as she worked.
"You're still willing to do something this troublesome?"
"Although it's troublesome, it's very happy. Father and brothers all enjoy being drunk with these peach blossoms."
As Nangong Ziyan spoke, a happy smile graced her lips.
Although she smiled happily, sometimes Bei Minghaotian would find that the smile made him feel a little melancholy and sad. Even when facing rumors and gossip, she could face the world with this happy and calm smile. Only she could exude this calming and reassuring aura, and only she could make him feel at ease and happy.
"Yan'er, you're so kind! You can find happiness even in hardship."
Nangong Ziyan paused, then smiled sweetly. "Haotian, I'm so happy to hear you say that." After saying that, Nangong Ziyan went back to her work.
Bei Ming Haotian felt his legs getting sore. He looked up at the busy Nangong Ziyan, whose serious expression was completely different from her usual demeanor.
"Yan'er, aren't you... tired?"
Nangong Ziyan was stunned again. There are many ways to describe the word "tired". There is mental tiredness and physical tiredness. Whenever the night is quiet, she feels that her heart is very tired.
"Sometimes, even when you're exhausted, you can't keep looking back. When you can only look forward, you won't waste your energy on the past. Sometimes being tired is like walking a long road. You're afraid that if you keep going, you won't be able to get up and keep going."
Nangong Ziyan didn't know what was wrong with her. Was the reason she was thinking about these flowers at this moment because Haotian had completely entered her heart?
When you can only look forward, you won't waste your energy on the past.
These words unintentionally struck a chord with him.
Is it because he doesn't have a complete goal that he can't escape the past and the present? He has always had too much time to recall the happy life of the past ten years, but over the years, his nightmares have still invaded every waking moment of his life.
Bei Ming Haotian fell into deep thought. Nangong Ziyan turned her head to look at Bei Ming Haotian and saw the bitter and heavy sorrow on his face. The lonely pain tightly enveloped his whole body.
"Haotian, you don't need to take Yan'er's words to heart. Yan'er was just expressing her feelings." Nangong Ziyan felt a little guilty. She would make this mistake when she calmed down or when there were few people around.
"No, Yan'er, you're right. I shouldn't spend too much time reminiscing about the happy life of the past. Now that you're by my side, no matter how difficult the road ahead may be, I will keep going."
"Haotian..."
Nangong Ziyan wanted to say something, but what she wanted most right now was to wipe away the bitterness in his eyes. However, she found that no matter what she said, it would stir up happy and painful memories in Haotian's heart. She couldn't imagine whether she would have the courage to endure if she had the same experience as Haotian. So she knew very well the bitterness in Haotian's heart.
