Shao Jingyu lay on the couch, staring at the tent ceiling with his eyes open. When did he realize that he had different feelings towards Yan Yiming?
It was probably that day when he was in desperate situation and she came to save him. She saved everyone from danger with a long sword. With the words "fortunately I have fulfilled my mission", her bloody face was breathtakingly beautiful under the setting sun. Shao Jingyu remembered how he felt at that moment when he excitedly held her in his arms. Thinking about it now, it turns out that there were already clues.
Since then, everything seems to have slowly changed.
Even when I first saw Yan Yiming injured his ankle, I felt a lot more pity when I think back on it now.
Shao Jingyu had liked someone before, and he still likes her now. That person was the little sister he had known and played with since childhood, now Jian Yuer, the daughter of Prime Minister Jian, a simple, gentle and beautiful woman.
They were well matched and had been in love since childhood. When they grew up and gradually understood what love was, he left a light kiss on Jian Yuer's lips amidst the blooming flowers. Jian Yu'er ran away with her face covered with her hands, her face flushed. Shao Jingyu stroked his lips with his fingers and chuckled as he watched Jian Yu'er's back as she walked away.
Sweet floral scent, just as expected.
Afterwards, he finally persuaded his grandparents to put on his military uniform and went to the battlefield. In a blink of an eye, a year passed and he had shed his boyish appearance. From the playful boy that everyone said was not doing his job, he became a general of the second rank. Then he realized that he had not opened the letter that Jian Yuer had sent him many times for a long time. Every time before going to sleep, he could not help but think of Jian Yuer's gentle and beautiful face, but gradually there was a pair of cold eyes like ice and snow, and the red mole at the corner of her eye was like a dot on her heart, and her appearance has changed since then.
That's Yan Yiming.
That day was the day after the great battle. Shao Jingyu still remembers the feeling of his fingers touching Yan Yiming's long eyelashes. They were soft and playful, unlike her cold and hard personality.
That night, Yan Yiming's figure lingered in his dreams for a long time. When he woke up the next day, he saw Yan Yiming again. Shao Jingyu took the cloak handed to him by Yan Yiming. He felt the warmth on the cloak and was shocked to become shy.
Having experienced many dangers on the edge of a knife, what is left is the most vivid and colorful stroke. The ignorant joy in youth was sweet and addictive, but now it has been gradually dimmed by the wind and sand in the desolate north.
Shao Jingyu once thought in his spare time that if this was the case, then what was the difference between Yan Yiming and Jian Yuer. It was not until he fought side by side with Yan Yiming again that he realized that he had loved Jian Yuer since childhood, but in addition to pity, he also admired, appreciated and longed for Yan Yiming.
What moved me was the love in my youth, but what entered my heart was the figure who is by my side now.
Compared to Yiming, my feelings for Yu'er at the beginning were much weaker.
He has never been the kind of person who would evade or retreat. When he discovered that he had a special feeling for Yan Yiming, he would occasionally wonder if this feeling was an illusion. He would even get in close contact with Yan Yiming to judge how Yan Yiming was different from Yun Xiao or Jian Yuer to him.
She is a comrade-in-arms, but different from Yun Xiao. He is also moved, but different from Jian Yuer.
He was a little confused, but he was clearly sure that whenever he had free time, he thought more about Yan Yiming, not Jian Yuer, let alone Yun Xiao.
Shao Jingyu didn't think he had a romantic relationship with Yan Yiming. In his heart, Yan Yiming was the friend he trusted and admired the most. However, her beautiful and delicate facial features, her thin and petite body, and even her ability to do needlework, made her gender increasingly ambiguous.
When he couldn't convince himself, Shao Jingyu could only complain helplessly. It was none of his business and he could only blame Yiming for being too special.
Discovery is quick, acceptance is quick, and decision making is just as quick.
He carefully wrote a letter to Jian Yuer who was far away in Jinling. It seemed that he was going to break his promise to wait for her. He no longer wanted Jian Yuer to wait any longer because he had someone he really wanted to wait for.
Shao Jingyu did not avoid his mistakes and did not even hide them. If Jian Yuer resented him in the future, he would do his best to make up for it.
After finishing writing the letter and sending it off, Shao Jingyu seemed to have resolved a problem and started to deal with the situation at hand.
After all, his feelings came so quickly and abruptly. Even though Shao Jingyu had made up his mind, he was still prepared to test Yan Yiming's attitude first. However, Yan Yiming's sudden concern for Nangong Ye today made him a little nervous.
Looking back now, Yan Yiming never bathed with other men, and said that she didn't want to get married and other signs. Shao Jingyu woke up with his eyes open until the early morning, and could still hear Yan Yiming's shallow breathing not far away.
Shao Jingyu turned over the quilt and walked to Yan Yiming's couch in his boots. He squatted beside the bed and stared at Yan Yiming.
Xiao Pingguo was frightened by Shao Jingyu's behavior of not sleeping in the middle of the night, and in the end she was unable to wake up Yan Yiming who was still sleeping.
When Yan Yiming opened her eyes, she met a pair of dark eyes in the dark. Even though she was quite courageous, she was still frightened. "You, General, what are you doing here?"
Shao Jingyu was not embarrassed to be discovered. Perhaps because his face turned red in the dark or because no one saw him, he looked at her with a tangled look when she asked, "Yiming, are you..."
"What is it?"
"Is it because you don't like women that you don't want to get married?"
Yan Yiming was stunned. The two of them stared at each other in the dark for a long time. Shao Jingyu almost couldn't hold it and was about to go back to sleep. Yan Yiming suddenly laughed and said, "Yes."
Shao Jingyu:? ? ? ! ! !
Is that so! ! !
"But I'm not good at Long Yang either," Yan Yiming said again, "General, don't worry."
Don't worry, what should I worry about? This made him even more worried. With a sharp turn, Shao Jingyu was confused again.
Not liking women and not being a good man, does that mean you don’t like men or women? So what does Yan Yiming like?
Xiao Pingguo laughed so hard that her stomach hurt. He didn't like women and wasn't good with Long Yang, which meant that Yan Yiming was a girl. It was just that this fact was too unbelievable, and no wonder Shao Jingyu couldn't think of it.
However, since Shao Jingyu asked this, it seems that he does not only have brotherly feelings for Yan Yiming as before. Perhaps in the near future, this strategy will be able to come to a "perfect" conclusion.
Shao Jingyu couldn't understand what Yan Yiming meant by this. No matter how wild his imagination was, even if he thought that maybe no one liked Yan Yiming because his family was brutally murdered, he still couldn't guess the truth.
The next day, he secretly asked Yun Xiao to investigate all the things that Yan Yiming had done before. Unexpectedly, Yun Xiao was very excited when he went, but had a stern look on his face when he came back.
Shao Jingyu asked him what happened. Yun Xiao whispered to Shao Jingyu, and Shao Jingyu suddenly became furious and could not control himself for a while.
Yun Xiao found out that because of Yan Yiming's outstanding appearance, he was almost "bullied" by many men in the military camp. The word "bullied" sounded light, but Shao Jingyu knew what the word "bullying" meant.
Fortunately, someone rescued her.
"These beasts!"
Shao Jingyu was so furious that his heart ached. The mere thought of anger could burn out all his rationality. However, the matter needed to be kept secret. He ordered Yun Xiao to call the captain who had saved Yan Yiming. After asking him many questions in detail, he promoted him as an exception and the captain left with many thanks.
Yun Xiao asked him if he needed to investigate who had bullied Yan Yiming in the first place.
Shao Jingyu's eyes were filled with horror and cruelty. "Of course we have to check."
"What should we do if we find out?"
"Throw it away and feed it to the wolves."
Yun Xiao's heart trembled. He looked up at Shao Jingyu, agreed in a low voice, and retreated. Shao Jingyu slowly pulled out the sharp blade. Shao Jingyu's eyes, as cold as a knife, were reflected on the silver-white blade.
After a long time, he put the knife back, walked out of the tent, put on his usual smile, and went to look for Nangong Ye who was still in the camp.
Shao Jingyu didn't ask directly, but Nangong Ye could see his probing, so he smiled and asked him directly, "Do you want to ask what Captain Yan said the day before yesterday?"
Nangong Ye asked directly, and Shao Jingyu admitted it generously without any hesitation.
Nangong Ye avoided answering, thinking of Yan Yiming's words the day before, and asked him with some interest, "Why do you care so much about a subordinate?"
Shao Jingyu took out the dogtail grass from his mouth and tapped it on Nangong Ye's arm, "I asked you first, Your Highness."
"But I promised Captain Yan not to tell anyone else," Nangong Ye snatched the foxtail grass and threw it aside, "So, I have nothing to say."
Shao Jingyu picked another one casually and said, "Then I have no comment."
Nangong Ye smiled faintly and didn't ask any more questions. He looked up at the azure sky and saw Yan Yiming walking towards them from a distance. He stood up and said to Shao Jingyu, "I can't tell you what he said, but I can tell you that what he wants is related to you."
Shao Jingyu looked up in surprise.
"So please be nice to him," Nangong Ye said, "It's time to go back after staying for a few days. When you pass by Beiping on your way back to Beijing, remember to come to the palace for a cup of tea."
"...Of course," Shao Jingyu also turned over.
Nangong Ye left in a free and easy manner, and when Yan Yiming went to see Nangong Ye off again, Shao Jingyu did not stop him.
He was no longer curious about what Yan Yiming had said to Nangong Ye. Yun Xiao said that the people who had bullied Yan Yiming had all died one after another due to various accidents. After a moment of silence, Shao Jingyu and Yun Xiao chose not to mention the matter at the same time.
They could guess why those people died, but since it was already in the past, they would not bring it up again. However, since then, Yun Xiao could not help but shudder every time she saw Yan Yiming, and Shao Jingyu treated her better than before.
Or to put it another way, even more shameless.
He smiled and asked Yan Yiming who happened to come in to help him draw a picture. Then he saw that Yan Yiming seemed to be holding something in his hand and asked, "What is it?"
"letter."
"Whose letter is it?" Shao Jingyu asked casually.
"A letter from Jinling," Yan Yiming raised the envelope in his hand, looked at Shao Jingyu meaningfully and said slowly, "I don't know who wrote it, but the handwriting is beautiful. It says, "To Brother Jingyu."
Shao Jingyu: ...
