Chapter 122 Ending
In the bedroom, Ji Zheng gently placed Ji Hean on the couch, then moved closer to her, his eyes full of passion and affection.
Ji Hean's cheeks flushed, but his eyes did not avoid. He took the initiative to put his arms around Ji Zheng's neck and pulled him closer.
The two of them lingered for a long time, and when the passion gradually faded, Ji Zheng lay on his side, combing Ji Hean's messy hair with his fingers, and whispered, "Today is the court meeting, and the emperor asked me to go to the north to help with disaster relief."
"ah?"
Ji Hean quickly turned to look at Ji Zheng, with a flushed face full of surprise, and then she felt disappointed, "Why? I don't want you to go..."
Ji Zheng sighed softly, held Ji He'an in his arms, rested his chin on the top of his head, and said softly: "I don't want to go either, but this is the emperor's order. The snow disaster in the north is severe, and many people are suffering. As a minister, it is difficult for me to refuse."
Ji Hean was silent for a while in his arms, then slowly said, "But I'm worried about you. It's freezing cold there, and the environment is harsh. You'll definitely encounter many difficulties and obstacles on your way there."
Ji Zheng hugged her tightly and consoled her, "It's okay, baby." He then added, "And Xiao Ming and Yan Yu are going too."
Ji Hean raised his head, his eyes full of nostalgia and reluctance, "When are you leaving?"
"We will set off in three days." Ji Zheng replied, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
During these three days, Ji Hean carefully prepared meals for Ji Zheng every day, selected thick and warm clothes, and secretly put some commonly used medicines and amulets into Ji Zheng's bag.
Ji Zheng looked at Ji He'an's busy figure, and his reluctance became stronger. Many times he really wanted to take Ji He'an with him, but when he thought of the harsh environment in the north, he gave up the idea.
On the day of departure, the two said goodbye in the house, and Ji Zheng found a bloody tooth mark on his collarbone.
He hugged Ji and An, his eyes filled with reluctance and worry, "Baby, wait for me to come back, I love you very much."
Ji Hean held back tears and nodded slightly, "You must return safely. I will pray for you day and night."
"Don't worry, I want to grow old with you." Ji Zheng lowered his head and kissed the man on the forehead. "I will write to you often. I will be back in half a year at most. You have to take good care of yourself at home, okay?"
"I know." Ji Hean nodded obediently, blinking her eyelashes and wrinkling her fair little face.
Seeing the man's aggrieved look, Ji Zheng felt his heart soften and his reluctance became stronger.
The two of them stayed in the house affectionately for a long time until someone came to urge them to leave, and then Ji Zheng reluctantly left.
As soon as Ji Zheng left, Ji Hean couldn't hold back her tears and started to shed. With tearful eyes, she watched the man's back disappear into the distance.
Ji Zheng and the team set out on the journey to the north.
Along the way, although he was concerned about disaster relief, Ji Hean's appearance often appeared in his mind.
After arriving in the north, Ji Zheng's heart sank at the tragic scene before him.
In the midst of ice and snow, countless disaster victims were displaced and suffered from hunger and cold.
Ji Zheng quickly discussed countermeasures with Yan Yu and Xiao Ming and began to organize a rescue operation.
He was responsible for building temporary shelters and distributing disaster relief supplies. He was so busy all day that he lost a lot of weight in just over a month.
Although he was busy, Ji Zheng never missed the letters he sent to Ji Hean on time. He also always carried the letters sent by Ji Hean with him and read them over and over again whenever he had time.
Ji Hean in the capital city also stayed by the window every day, looking towards the north, hoping for news of Ji Zheng. Time passed slowly in this endless longing and waiting.
Time passed slowly in the thoughts of the two, and in the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.
The disaster in the north was also alleviated. Since learning that Ji Zheng was coming back, Ji Hean had a smile on his face almost all the time, and he was looking forward to time passing faster all day long.
Of course Ji Zheng felt the same way. On the day he set out on his journey home, he wished he could grow a pair of wings and fly back directly.
After waiting day and night, Ji Zheng finally arrived in the capital on a sunny afternoon.
The first thing is to go home.
The breeze blew gently, bringing a hint of coolness, rustling the withered yellow leaves, like a soft autumn whisper.
The golden light shone on Ji Hean's face, and a familiar word "baby" came to his ears.
Ji Hean's body stiffened and he turned around suddenly. The person he had been thinking about day and night was walking towards him step by step.
After walking to the right distance, Ji Zheng slowly opened his arms.
Their eyes met, deep affection flowing in their eyes. No words were needed, everything was implied.
"Baby, come here."
One step, two steps, and finally it turned into a run, and Ji Hean rushed into Ji Zheng's arms.
Ji Zheng took advantage of the situation and hugged the person tightly, as if he wanted to merge the person into his own body.
His chin lightly rested on the top of Ji Hean's head, and Ji Hean's cheek was pressed against his chest. They could clearly hear each other's heartbeats, and that sound was like the most moving melody in this quiet courtyard.
As the autumn breeze blew, the two people's hair tangled together in the wind, inseparable, you in me and me in you.
....
The weeping willows by the stream sway swayingly, their slender branches hanging down over the water, swaying gently with the gurgling stream. The newly sprouted tender buds are like emerald green gems, sparkling with the light of life under the sunlight.
The young man in light green clothes stepped barefoot in the stream, the clear water flowing over his feet. He bent down and picked up a smooth pebble, flushed it towards the man on the shore, and shouted with a smile: "The stone is beautiful!"
The sound is very clear, like the gurgling sound of a stream, bringing an indulgent smile to the listener's face.
Wearing a grass wreath woven by someone on his head, Ji Zheng picked up a flower from the side, took two steps forward, and pinned the flower to the young man's ear, "You are not allowed to play for a little longer, or you will be in trouble if you get sick."
Eight or nine years have passed, and Ji Hean's originally childish facial features have now become delicate and handsome. His slightly narrow eyes narrowed and looked up at Ji Zheng.
The whole person was like an octopus, coiled on Ji Zheng, and as usual, rubbed his cheek against Ji Zheng's cheek, and said in a gentle voice: "I know, I know, you have said it many times today."
Ji Zheng laughed at the impatient tone, and pinched the waist of the man with the hand that was holding him, "Ji Xiaogou, how can you talk to me in that tone? If you get sick, don't whimper in my ear anymore."
"But even if I don't whimper, you will still feel sorry for me." Ji Hean retorted righteously, not feeling that there was anything wrong with it.
Ji Zheng finally realized what it meant to be truly arrogant because of being spoiled. He smiled helplessly and dotingly, rubbed the person's head, and carried the person to the shore.
Like a servant, he put on shoes and socks for people and sorted their clothes.
Looking at Ji Zheng kneeling on one knee in front of him, Ji Hean raised the corner of his mouth. He looked at the blooming wild flowers around him boredly, picked one and put it on Ji Zheng's head.
Feeling Ji Hean's actions, Ji Zheng let him do it, stood up and kissed the man on the lips without any desire.
On the way, Ji Hean picked a lot of wild flowers and tied them into colorful bunches with ribbons, which was very beautiful.
As the sun sets, the two arrive at their destination. Ji Hean stands in a sea of flowers, holding a bouquet in his hand and the flower Ji Zheng gave him in his ear. He smiles and says to Ji Zheng, "Do I look good?"
A ray of afterglow from the setting sun shone on his face, the fine hair on his face shone with golden light, and his eyes seemed to be filled with two stars, so bright that one could not take one's eyes away.
There is one word that can be used to describe Ji He'an today, and that is sunny and bright.
Ji Zheng's eyes were filled with naked delight as he answered loudly, "She's beautiful, very beautiful, the most beautiful person I've ever seen."
Many years ago, a seed named Ji He'an fell into Ji Zheng's heart. Finally, under his careful care and nurturing, it took root, sprouted, and blossomed.
