Chapter 161 Only those who are ruthless and loveless can see through the overall situation
Xiangying lay on his chest and raised her pair of sparkling eyes.
"I finally tricked you up here, now I can hehehe..."
Before she could finish her smirk, Jie Chen covered her mouth.
He frowned his straight, dark brows, but his eyes were full of waves, and his voice was a little hoarse.
"Not now."
Xiangying pulled his hand down and said, "I mean, you're right. Lying flat does put pressure on the wound. I have to lie on my stomach."
So she chose to lie on him because it was comfortable.
Xie Chen was stunned, and the dark light in his eyes seemed to disappear. He laughed, and it seemed as if he was mocking himself.
What was he thinking? It was crazy.
Jie Chen put one arm around Xiangying's lower back, trying not to put pressure on her wound, and with the other hand he pulled the quilt over to cover them together.
Xiangying drank some wine, and the warmth made her feel drowsy.
Xie Chen's heartbeat was strong and powerful, giving her an indescribable sense of security.
At this moment, Xie Chen suddenly asked her: "Why did you never doubt my identity? I was hiding in Xizhou and reporting news to Nanyue, but you never blamed me. Why?"
Xiangying opened his misty black eyes and said, "It has already happened. It is a waste of time to ask why. Besides, I don't care about Western Zhou or Nanyue. I only care about my own feelings."
"But I know that you are not an ordinary soldier. Although I don't know your specific identity, I guess you must be an important figure in South Vietnam."
Xie Chen was silent for a moment: "Aren't you curious?"
Xiangying yawned: "I'm curious, but I asked you and you refused to tell me. I think you must have your own reasons. When you want to tell me, you will tell me naturally, just like I told you my secret."
Xie Chen fell silent and said nothing more.
Xiangying lost his sleepiness.
When she was analyzing Jie Chen's identity in her mind, he said, "Have you heard of the story of the dragon giving birth to nine sons?"
Xiangying was stunned: "I have heard of it."
Xie Chen said calmly: "Everyone knows that the dragon gave birth to nine sons, but few people know that the dragon actually gave birth to ten sons."
"It's just that he thought the tenth son's bloodline was impure, so he even felt it was unnecessary to acknowledge his identity."
He told a story.
Long fell in love with a beautiful woman, kept her by his side, and asked her to bear his children.
Unfortunately, the beauty came for revenge, but her assassination plan was exposed. Long was furious and imprisoned the pregnant beauty and demoted her to a prisoner.
The tenth dragon son was born in prison.
After he was born, the dragon took both the beauty and the child back, and they lived as slaves, being bullied and humiliated by others.
The first nine dragon sons refused to acknowledge the identity of the tenth dragon, believing that he was born from an enemy tribe and refused to accept him and his mother.
On the day the beauty died, she had not eaten or drunk anything for three days. She begged Long to come and see her again, but Long refused and sent someone to bring her a cruel news.
If she died, her son would die too.
Because the dragon already had many sons, he didn't care about the life of the tenth dragon.
For the sake of her child, the beauty held on for another half a day and wrote a letter in blood before she died.
"Three hundred and forty-two words, every word is begging him." When Xie Chen said this, his voice was calm, as if he was really telling a story.
Xie Chen said that after the beauty died, Long really wanted to execute her son.
In order to survive, the tenth dragon exchanged interests with him, voluntarily became a chess piece, and risked his life for him.
Thus, the tenth dragon saved his life.
He left the land that he considered home, but the land that those people never considered family.
Now he is going back again.
Xiangying remained silent.
He remembered so clearly how many words were written on the blood letter.
Xie Chen is the tenth dragon.
It turns out they all have a scumbag father.
So, Xie Chen is a prince and his father is the emperor of Nanyue.
Xiangying said silently: "Why is the beauty's vision so bad that she falls in love with someone she shouldn't love."
Xie Chen smiled, with a hint of helplessness and bitterness.
"She also felt stupid, so she said that only those who are ruthless and loveless can ruin the overall situation."
Xiangying nodded in agreement: "It is indeed important not to fall in love with anyone easily."
Xie Chen lowered his eyes to look at him, and he said softly: "I hope you will always remember this sentence."
This is also the standard he holds himself to.
Before revenge is achieved, love is the last thing worth mentioning.
Xiangying understood what Jie Chen meant.
He was reminding her not to be tempted.
Xiangying lay on his chest, a laugh as light as a cloud escaped from her red lips.
"Don't worry, I have no heart. When we leave here, you will still be Deputy General Xie, and I will still be Xiangying."
"Once I go to the Nanyue Palace, they will naturally arrange a place for me to go. By then, it will be difficult for the deputy general to see me."
"We all have our own storms to brave, and our futures will certainly be different."
Hearing this, Jie Chen couldn't help but tighten his grip.
Xiangying propped himself up and lifted his chin with his slender fingertips.
Her black hair cascaded down her shoulders, covering their profiles.
"Xie Chen, I suddenly want to do something with you."
"What?"
"One thing that will make us all happy is that after we leave here, we will forget all these things."
Xiangying's eyes were dark and sparkling.
The slender fingertips slid up along Jie Chen's well-defined jaw and touched his thin, cold lips.
The meaning couldn't be more obvious.
She lowered her voice and said, "My period is over."
This time, Xie Chen did not refuse with a blushing face, nor did he get furious.
But after understanding what she meant, the same vortex appeared in his eyes.
His voice was a little hoarse, and he sneered: "Then am I taking advantage of someone's misfortune?"
"I'll give it to you." Xiangying had just finished speaking when Jie Chen held her neck and kissed her.
If the passion at this moment lasts only a moment, that is enough.
Because Xiangying knows that unbridled joy is rare, and most relationships in the world cannot escape the word "dispersion".
She is not greedy for daily life.
Snow was flying all over the sky and sounds were whistling in the mountains.
In the cold sky, snow fell again and again.
Fortunately, there were thick felt curtains to block the falling snow, so it didn't fall on people's hearts at all, and melted as soon as it reached the air.
Five hours later.
Xiangying was lying next to Jie Chen and sleeping soundly.
Jie Chen walked to the cave entrance, but saw a ball of ink condensed like a fishy wind in the cold night, sticking heavily to the sky.
Xie Chenbo's eyes were clear and sharp as he was observing the direction of the wind and snow. Suddenly, an eagle flapped its wings and flew in front of him.
The eagle was covered with snowflakes, staring at Jie Chen and tilted its head.
Before Jie Chen could catch it, it let out a loud cry and flapped its wings to fly into the sky.
Xiangying's voice came from behind: "We are saved! Erzai asked his pet to come to us."
She sat up, ignoring her aching body, and put on her clothes.
Raise the collar to cover the marks.
Xie Chen put his outer robe on her: "Does your head hurt anymore?"
Xiangying sighed, "Master Jie's medicine has cured my illness. I am feeling much better now."
Xie Chen's throat rolled and he quickly looked away.
He couldn't keep looking at Xiangying, otherwise he would be unable to suppress some emotions.
Xiangying quickly put the things back into the space.
When Skinny Monkey and the others were lowered to the cave entrance along a thick rope, they saw Xiangying and Jiechen, two shivering little creatures.
The skinny monkey was about to cry.
"Deputy General, sister-in-law, I finally found you!"
He looked up and shouted, "Great, they're still alive!"
Jie Chen: Don’t be tempted by me, I won’t be tempted either.
Xiangying: OK
later:
Xie Chen: Heartless woman, I love you like crazy, why don't you look at me?
