Chapter 104 Mutual Love

Pei Xuan hugged Xie Anci's waist and frowned slightly. Xie Anci looked up at Pei Xuan cautiously.

"I..."

"Let's go back. It's too cold. Don't get sick." Pei Xuan picked up Xie Anci, and Xie Anci hurriedly struggled to get down.

Unexpectedly, Pei Xuan looked very thin but had such great strength.

"Put me down, I can walk by myself." Xie Anci was shy and didn't know where to cover.

Should I cover my face or Pei Xuan's face?

Pei Xuan ignored him and hugged him tighter.

"The water on my shoes is frozen. How can I walk?" Pei Xuan carried Xie Anci onto the horse and got on the horse himself.

Xie Anci didn't want to go back so soon, but his feet were really cold, so he had to let Pei Xuan take him back.

The sky was overcast and it started to snow.

Lin Yi exhaled a breath of white air and rubbed his hands.

Winter grass usually grows on cliffs and is difficult to pick, so the price is also high.

Lin Yi suddenly remembered Xie Anci who was almost frozen to death here.

Xie Anci was really lucky. Fortunately, he met him who came to pick herbs that day.

Lin Yi smiled, put aside the memories in his mind, put on gloves and climbed up the cliff.

The cliff was steep and covered with a layer of snow, which looked very dangerous.

The winter grass on the cliff swayed in the wind, as if greeting Lin Yi, and the transparent leaves almost merged with the snow-capped mountains.

Lin Yi desperately moved forward, trying to pick the alpine flower, and his fingertips finally touched the cold grass.

He carefully pulled up the cold grass by the roots and put it in the basket behind him.

Just as he was about to go down, his foot slipped and he lost his balance.

"Ah!" Lin Yi cried out in surprise.

He tried to grab something with his hands, but there was nothing but snow on the bare cliff.

Bang -

he fell heavily, and the dead branches on the ground pierced his calves.

"Ah!" Lin Yi broke out in a cold sweat from the pain, and his fair and handsome face turned even paler.

It's over...

Lin Yi thought to himself, the severe pain almost made him lose consciousness.

But in this deserted place, his leg was injured again, and he couldn't crawl back home even if he crawled.

I don't know what Xie Anci is doing?

Lin Yi shook his head. He was still thinking about these things now.

Lin Yi could see Pei Xuan's restrained feelings for Xie Anci.

"Um..." Lin Yi gritted his teeth and pulled the dead branch out of his leg. The blood dyed the snow-white ground red.

There was nothing in this wilderness.

Lin Yi could only simply treat the wound. Even this simple action made him feel so painful that his eyes went black.

The weather was cold and the bleeding would stop easily.

Lin Yi leaned on the stone beside him and prayed that Xie Anci could bring people over.

On the other side, Pei Xuan and Xie Anci had returned to their residence.

Pei Xuan carried Xie Anci into the house, put him on the bed, and covered him with a thick quilt.

"You take a rest first. I'll go boil some hot water." Pei Xuan said.

Xie Anci nodded, curled up in the quilt, with only a pair of eyes exposed.

However, Pei Xuan had not returned for a long time, and Xie Anci was almost asleep waiting for him.

Xie Anci got up, put on his clothes and went to the kitchen. Pei Xuan was sitting upright in front of the stove in a white robe.

His expression was more serious than ever before, and he looked down at the small flame, wishing he could make it bigger.

There were a few streaks of black ash on his fair face, making him look a little wolfish.

"What are you doing?" Xie Anci walked into the kitchen and couldn't help asking.

Pei Xuan looked up at him and said awkwardly, "I want to boil some hot water for you, but this fire... is not very obedient."

Xie Anci couldn't help laughing: "Let me do it."

Pei Xuan stood up and made way.

Xie Anci skillfully fiddled with the firewood, and soon, the fire was burning vigorously. Pei

Xuan took the firewood from Xie Anci, and fortunately everything went smoothly afterwards.

"I'll take care of it here, you go and have a rest." Pei Xuan had an imperceptible embarrassment on his face.

Xie Anci shook his head, took a small stool and sat next to Pei Xuan.

"Just here, there's a fire, it's warm." Xie Anci's tone was very light, with a nasal sound.

The warm firelight illuminated the faces of the two people, and they were warm.

The two were silent, but the atmosphere was not awkward.

"That..." Xie Anci suddenly remembered the dream he had last night.

Pei Xuan turned his head to look at Xie Anci. Xie Anci, who had lost his memory, looked much softer. The previous Xie Anci was arrogant, like a peacock with its head held high.

Now Xie Anci is as gentle as a rabbit.

"What's the matter?" Pei Xuan's voice couldn't help but soften.

"How is my relationship with the emperor?" Xie Anci asked the doubts in his heart.

The flash of surprise in Pei Xuan's eyes was caught by Xie Anci: "Not very good."

Pei Xuan said truthfully.

He didn't know much about the relationship between Xie Anci and the emperor, but he heard some things about them from Pei Lin.

"Oh." Xie Anci nodded, an expected answer.

"Do I have someone I like?" Xie Anci asked tentatively again.

Pei Xuan hesitated for a moment, knowing that Xie Anci was trying to ask him indirectly whether he liked the emperor.

Could it be that Xie Anci's memory had recovered a little?

Xie Anci looked curious, Pei Xuan looked away, it didn't look like he had recovered.

"Yes." Pei Xuan answered truthfully.

"Who?" Xie Anci tensed up, could it really be the emperor?

Is everything in the dream real?

Is it that he can't get the love he wants?

Xie Anci pursed his lips. It doesn't matter. The emperor didn't come to see him. He must hate him.

Even if he recovers his memory, he won't like the emperor anymore...

It's too sad to fall in love with someone who doesn't like you.

Xie Anci thought silently, hypnotizing himself in his heart.

"Me."

"Ah?"

Xie Anci blinked. The answer was completely beyond his expectations.

The person in the dream was not the emperor, but the person in front of him?

"Yes." Pei Xuan nodded with certainty.

"I like you?" Xie Anci didn't quite believe it, and of course he didn't believe his dream.

"Yes."

Xie Anci was confused when he heard it, and told his dream.

"I dreamed last night that I was in the palace. I seemed to like the emperor, but the emperor hated me." Xie Anci frowned with a distressed expression.

Pei Xuan's heart tightened. That should be Xie Anci's memory, not a dream.

"It's just a dream, not real." Pei Xuan comforted him. It was his first time to lie, and he turned his face away uncomfortably.

Just this time...

give him a chance, let him and Xie Anci start over.

Pei Xuan thought humbly.

Xie Anci nodded thoughtfully: "But I always feel that the dream is very real."

"Maybe the dream and reality are confused." Pei Xuan stretched out his hand to touch Xie Anci's head.

"Does that mean you don't like me? I can't get you?" Xie Anci was confused. He couldn't tell the difference between the real and fake.

"No, I like you. We love each other." Pei Xuan grabbed Xie Anci's hand, his eyes were tender and gentle.
