His words startled Yan Xi. She raised her hands and wanted to hug him, but she remembered something and a struggle flashed in her eyes. After a while, she finally compromised and hugged him.
Xiao Jingwen found that he was also hugging him, and his heartbeat became particularly clear in an instant.
He hugged her tighter, as if he wanted to knead the person in his arms into his bones and blood.
The two hugged each other quietly for a long time, listening to each other's breathing.
But it was the hottest time of the year in June, and the weather was indeed quite scorching. Yan Xi soon became a little overwhelmed, so she pushed him and whispered, "It's hot."
Hearing this, Xiao Jingwen quickly let go. Glancing at the thin layer of sweat oozing from the boy's smooth and plump forehead, his dark eyes curved slightly as he wiped it clean for him. "Wait a minute, I'll ask Lan Yi and Liu Ying to bring some ice cubes and put them in the house."
Yan Xi hummed obediently, "Also, I'm thirsty and want to drink some water with ice."
Xiao Jingwen shook his head and refused firmly, "You are afraid of the cold, you can't drink it."
Yan Xi tugged at his clothes pitifully, "Just drink one cup, just one cup, it's really hot and thirsty."
Xiao Jingwen raised his eyebrows, "Okay, just one cup."
"Okay!" Yan Xi's eyes lit up and he nodded frantically, "By the way, I want a smoothie with a little grape juice!"
"Okay, I'll add more for you." Xiao Jingwen smiled for the first time in a long time, rubbed his head, and went out to instruct the two people at the door.
Yan Xi licked her lips, sat on the edge of the bed, rubbed her hands, and looked forward to it.
That's not right.
Why is he so easily satisfied now?
In modern times, we can eat ice cream in winter and there is nothing to be afraid of.
Now, even drinking ice water is a joy.
Sigh...damn broken body.
Really weak.
For the next task, I must let the system find me a body that is not afraid of the cold and is healthy!
Next task...
Yan Xi was slightly startled, and his eyes dimmed.
Looking at the tall and slender man outside the door, he was in a dilemma again.
If he fails to complete the mission, he will die and turn into ashes.
Once the mission is completed, you will never see him again.
…
The Fourth Prince's Mansion.
In the long corridor, Jamel Xiao glanced through the crack in the door at the panicked and restless boy inside, curled his lips, and was in a good mood.
Xiao Jingwen, your sweetheart is with me, I wonder if you dare to cause any trouble.
"Well done." Lan Lan retracted his gaze and said to Wu Xing who was standing upright behind him, "What's going on over at the Shangshu Mansion?"
Wuxing lowered his eyebrows and eyes: "Chu Yanxi is missing, and everyone in the Shangshu Mansion is looking for him everywhere. The people that Prince Jin planted in the Shangshu Mansion also sent him the news overnight."
"Hehe... I wonder what expression my ninth brother would have when he knew his sweetheart was gone. It's a shame that I can't see him now. It's really a pity." Xiao Jingyan smiled strangely. "However, compared to this, I want to see him cry in despair more. I believe that day is not too far away."
After he finished speaking, a hint of cruelty flashed across his gentle face.
…
Yan Xi suddenly disappeared and ended up staying with Murong Xing.
However, Chu Junyao asked Murong Xing, and she said that she had not come to the Shangshu Mansion yesterday and had been staying at home.
Liu Ye also took leave to take care of her sister in the countryside.
So, this was a long-planned kidnapping.
Who kidnapped him?
Chu Junyao and Minister Chu were extremely anxious, and the first person they thought of was Xiao Jingwen, who coveted Yan Xi.
But he was still fighting the enemy at the border thousands of miles away. We had no evidence and there was no way to go directly to his house to ask for him back.
Minister Chu paced back and forth in the hall, feeling very uneasy. "It's not so bad if it falls into the hands of the King of Jin. At least my life won't be in danger for the time being. If it falls into the hands of others, I'm afraid..."
Chu Junyao and Murong Xing, who were sitting below, looked at each other. Chu Junyao snorted coldly and spoke first, "If it really is the King of Jin, Yan Xi will probably be living a life worse than death. What good is that?"
Upon hearing this, Minister Chu fell silent. Indeed, few people could accept such a thing calmly.
In the past, some countries perished, and those princes and nobles would rather die than become playthings of others and enjoy the pleasures of another man.
This is naked humiliation, and few men can bear it.
As a modern person, Murong Xing can accept couples between men and women, but the prerequisite is that they are in love with each other and have an equal relationship.
King Jin broke into Yan Xi's room in the middle of the night and wanted to force him. This was tantamount to attempted rape. Moreover, this happened in a world that was particularly intolerant of homosexuality. People's thinking had long been fixed. Yan Xi, a pure ancient man, certainly could not accept it.
Otherwise, why has this child been depressed and distracted since then, and would lower his head and remain silent whenever someone mentioned Prince Jin?
Thinking of this, she was also afraid that Yan Xi would fall into the hands of King Jin.
The double torture of psychological and physical torture will drive him crazy.
But who else would take Yan Xi away except Prince Jin?
A pair of white boots flashed through Murong Xing's mind, and her eyes shone. "Could it be that the Fourth Prince took him away?"
"The Fourth Prince?" Minister Chu and Chu Junyao looked at her.
"Brother Chu, do you still remember what I said to you last night on the Shangsi Festival? Yan Xi fainted and was taken away by someone, and that person was the Fourth Prince!"
