Somewhat puzzled, Yi Shangyun walked step by step toward Xuan Yuanhan, wanting to confirm whether she had really misheard. Unexpectedly, she tripped over a vine and bumped into Xuan Yuanhan's strong chest as he suddenly turned around, and he was immediately supported by Xuan Yuanhan's hands.
For a moment, the two of them stood together, their eyes locked in a deep gaze. Yi Shangyun looked up at Xuan Yuanhan, while Xuan Yuanhan looked down at her. Xuan Yuanhan's gaze was usually arrogant and cold, but it always softened involuntarily when he met Yi Shangyun's eyes.
At this moment, though silent, in Xuan Yuanhan's eyes, his emotions were already fermenting and expanding rapidly, as if they might surge out at any moment and overwhelm the other person!
Yi Shangyun seemed to be startled by the desire in his eyes, and quickly reacted. She suddenly felt her face burning and her heart racing. Just as she was about to take two steps back, Xuan Yuanhan took advantage of her unpreparedness and pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly.
But that wasn't all. He didn't give her any chance or time to break free. In one swift motion, he lifted a corner of the veil and buried his head down, kissing her tender, soft red lips fiercely. The veil, gently brushed against her cheek with his large hands, slowly drifted down onto the grass beside them.
As soon as Xuan Yuanhan invaded Yi Shangyun's lips and teeth, he began to kiss her wildly like a madman. Yi Shangyun let out a muffled groan, "Hmm..." as if she wanted to say something.
Xuanyuan Han gently interrupted him in his ear, "Don't speak!"
So, Yi Shangyun obediently closed her eyes, but inexplicably, fragmented memories of their past flashed through her mind...
It turned out that the man before her had always loved her, cherished her, and silently protected her. He was even willing to fall off a cliff with her, to give his own life for her…
Such a rare man—so compassionate and righteous, noble and extraordinary, looking down upon the world with a heart for all living beings and the suffering of the common people—what reason did she have to refuse him?
At this moment, Yan'er's dying words unconsciously surfaced in her mind again: "Miss, don't always be so timid and self-conscious. His Highness Prince Qin treats you very well. Miss, be brave and don't miss this opportunity."
Could it be, as Yan'er said, that her fear of approaching that noble, naturally handsome, and otherworldly figure stemmed solely from her inferiority complex caused by the birthmark on her face?
Clearly, she had no recollection of her identity as a person from the 21st century. Therefore, she was unaware that the reason she couldn't accommodate anyone else was because another person occupied her heart.
Now, all she can think about is how much care and kindness this man has shown her.
Finally, she let down her guard and listened to her heart without any hesitation. She slowly raised her hands from his warm embrace and wrapped them around his waist, gradually beginning to respond to him.
Upon realizing and sensing her response, Xuan Yuanhan opened his eyes slightly in surprise. He noticed her dazed eyes and the faint blush on her cheeks, and seemed to really like her reaction. He couldn't help but bend down and pick her up in his arms, taking two steps forward and gently placing her on the thick green grass beside him.
Before Yi Shangyun could catch her breath, Xuan Yuanhan pressed down on her, launching an even more forceful and domineering attack, demanding all the fantasies and desires he had harbored for this woman over the past countless days and nights.
This time, he buried his head down, but did not linger on her lips for long. Instead, he lingered down her neck, sometimes pecking, sometimes sucking, sometimes gently biting, sometimes whispering in her ear. Before she knew it, her collar had been gradually lifted by him. In his hot, wet kisses, Yun, who was wearing clothes, seemed to be in pain all over her body.
Just as Xuan Yuanhan's hand had quietly touched her beauty and was about to go further, it suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" After noticing, Yi Shangyun opened her eyes shyly but also puzzled and asked softly.
Xuanyuan Han pressed himself tightly against Yi Shangyun, placing a deep kiss on her forehead and gazing into her eyes: "I will wait, until the day you truly become my queen. I will then completely possess all that is beautiful about you, leaving no place untouched, and devour you until not even bones remain."
Yes! How should he explain this to her? Every time they were intimate, she would inexplicably faint. In the past, whenever she fainted, Young Master Yi would always step in to help, but this time was different. He really wanted her, but he was even more afraid that she would be in danger.
As Xuan Yuanhan gently stroked her bangs, he gazed into her eyes with a look of doting affection. Yi Shangyun, already embarrassed, rubbed against him shyly, hiding her face.
After she calmed down, she slowly sat up. Xuan Yuanhan reached out and pulled her into his arms, and the two sat on the ground, snuggling together.
Yi Shangyun softly collapsed into Xuan Yuanhan's warm and broad embrace, gently closing her eyes as if still resting. As if pressed against such a warm chest, she felt exceptionally safe and comfortable at this moment.
Xuanyuan Han, meanwhile, patiently stroked the red birthmark on her once beautiful face again and again, his eyes fixed blankly on the distant, fiery red sunset, saying:
"Yun'er, thank you for remembering me. I know that your response just now must have reminded you of all the little things from the past. In this life, no, in all future lives, promise me you will never leave my side again, okay? Don't worry, I will make you the happiest woman in the world. We will hold hands and look at this beautiful land together, enjoying peaceful times and the passing years. When all the splendor fades away, we will stay together and grow old together."
Upon hearing this, Yi Shangyun, who had been keeping her eyes lightly closed, suddenly opened them. She gazed into Xuan Yuanhan's eyes, which were filled with deep affection and expectation as he looked at her, and murmured excitedly, "Your Highness!"
After a moment of eye contact, Yi Shangyun finally withdrew her tender gaze and nestled deeper into his embrace. Suddenly, she stammered, "Your Highness...won't you find the stains on Yun'er's face..."
"No!" Before Yi Shangyun could finish speaking, Xuan Yuanhan cut her off, choking back all the rest of his words.
Yi Shangyun's lips curled into a smile, a secret joy and deep emotion welling up within her. Then she recalled Yan'er's words: "Your Highness, I am truly fortunate to have met you in this life. I've heard that when a person is dying, if a tear shed by their lover falls on their body, it will turn into a red birthmark. That's a contract left by the person who loved them in their past life, so they could find them in the next..."
Before Yi Shangyun could finish speaking, Xuan Yuanhan said with a firm gaze, "Then I am the one who shed that tear of contract for you in my previous life. Since all of this was caused by me, then I can't possibly despise you! However, since this tear and this contract were made by me, how could they be so cheap as to be worth only one lifetime? I want to be bound to you for a hundred lifetimes, a thousand lifetimes, life after life, until the end of time, it will never be enough..."
Now that things have come to this, who knows what kind of dramatic, exciting, and captivating events will unfold next...
Before we knew it, the seasons had changed, day and night had alternated, and the surroundings were already pitch black. The mountains and forests gradually fell silent, with only the chirping of insects becoming clearer as night fell.
Yi Shangyun had fallen asleep sometime earlier, and a warm campfire was lit, its light illuminating her pale, thin face. Xuan Yuanhan gazed at her with mesmerized eyes, as if he could never get enough of looking at her.
A gentle breeze stirred, and Yi Shangyun's brows furrowed slightly. He quickly and quietly took off his thick, dark cloak and wrapped it tightly around himself.
Even so, she seemed to be sleeping restlessly. At this moment, she appeared to be murmuring, "Who are you? Who are you? Wei Mingxuan..."
Suddenly, I was awakened by this nightmare.
"Were you dreaming?" As soon as Xuan Yuanhan saw her open her eyes, he immediately wiped her nose with a doting expression and asked, then went to wipe the fine cold sweat from her forehead.
Yi Shangyun composed herself and said, "I don't know why, but I always have some strange dreams, and when I wake up, I can't remember anything. They're all just people whose faces I can't see clearly. Sigh..."
She pursed her lips, seemingly quite helpless, and finally sighed softly. She struggled to sit up, but before she could even get halfway up, Xuan Yuanhan suddenly pulled her back into his arms and buried his head in her mouth for another greedy, deep kiss.
Yi Shangyun opened her eyes and looked at him, confused. But in the end, she obediently responded to him, letting him explore her deeply inch by inch.
"Yun'er, I truly wish that time could stand still at this moment, and that nothing would change..."
After a while, the two finally stopped, reluctant to part. Xuan Yuanhan held her in his arms, his eyes brimming with passion as he looked at the fiery red campfire in front of them.
This happiness, for him, was also too sudden and hard-won. No one knows how afraid he was of it being shattered again.
After several rounds, Yi Shangyun was completely exhausted and unable to speak. She could only listen to his sweet words in her ear, burying her face deeply in his burning chest and listening to his strong heartbeat.
This affection came so suddenly that she felt like she was dying of happiness.
At this moment, she was truly enjoying a man's wholehearted and complete love and demands for her.
This made her realize that this should be the greatest fortune in a woman's life!
With this thought in mind, she closed her eyes contentedly, savoring all the beauty around her, listening to his endless chatter in her ear...
