Chapter 651: Settling Down in the Land of Exile (2)
After falling flat on her face, Ah Xian ignored the pain and quickly got up to touch the man's forehead. "You don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense? Is the Land of Exile a place you can go? Don't think that I didn't hear the people talking downstairs just because I was counting money! Are you planning to send me to that damn place and get rid of me so you can leave quietly? I tell you, there's no way. If I die, I will haunt you even as a ghost! You——"
Huo Ziheng grabbed the woman's cheek and gently pulled her face towards him. He leaned over to face her, his cold eyes filled with a helpless smile. "My lady, I won't abandon you even if I become a ghost. If you're worried, why don't you tie me up with a rope?"
Ah Xian, “…”
Just talk and don’t touch me. I’m not prepared.
I'll go buy a rope later!
"The exile land is full of criminals who have been exiled there, and I've never even heard of that Fengyun City. What did the people downstairs say just now? There are bad people everywhere? What good can we expect from settling down there? You stinky man, although I am very confident in my abilities, I also know my limitations. I'm not invincible." Ah Xian frowned.
If she really went to that place, she wouldn't mind being bullied, but she couldn't bear to see Huo Ziheng being bullied.
At that time, you will have to fight with others. If you can win, it will be fine. If you can't, then life will be really difficult.
Huo Ziheng loosened his grip on his wife's face and moved it upwards, rubbing the top of her head. "Just now, the people downstairs said that the government doesn't dare to intervene there, so it's a good place for us to settle down. Also, although Fengyun City has a bad reputation, we can't just judge things by appearances. Where there's evil in the open, there's always good hidden in the dark. There's always a crack where we can survive."
Although the bandit camp was wiped out, the government's activities did not stop. As they walked here along the way, they could clearly sense the unusual movements.
The government is still hunting down the remaining bandits who have escaped from the camp.
Neither he nor Ah Xian's identities could withstand scrutiny. If they wanted to find peace, they had no choice but to go to a place of exile.
Ah Xian felt the gentle pressure on her head. She agreed in her heart, but she was still hesitant. "Are you sure? Is it really possible to go there? How much do you know about Fengyun City? You bastard, you can't be so careless about this. You might end up spending the rest of your life there."
"I'm sure." Huo Ziheng sighed. To appease his wife's anxiety, he confided in her a few words. "Before my family fell into decline, our elders often quizzed us on current affairs and the political landscape. So, while I wouldn't claim to know the geography of the world like the back of my hand, I do know a thing or two. We can go to the place of exile."
Although the Huo family retired and no longer got involved in disputes, they never stopped keeping abreast of current affairs and current events so that they could understand the dynamics and trends of the world.
Therefore, no matter what time, he would subconsciously collect information, combine the words he heard from the people around him, and then make inferences.
It has become a habit.
As he dodged, the woman in front of him threw herself into his arms, pushing his back against the window.
The woman's restless hands even crept up his waist, groping furtively, but her face remained completely serious. "Then tell me, how much do you know about the Exiled Land and Windcloud City?"
Huo Ziheng, "..."
"Ahem," he pretended not to notice, suppressing a laugh. "There are three major factions in the exile area of Yongzhou, each fighting openly and secretly. Fengyun City is occupied by two overlords, each half, while the area outside the city is controlled by the Twelve Wharves. For years, the three forces have been deadlocked. When we go there, we can pick up the crumbs that the three factions throw away when they fight over the cake. They despise the things, but for us, we can make a living."
After a pause, the hand on his waist was too presumptuous. Huo Ziheng lowered his brow helplessly, staring at the woman who was not listening to him at all, and said tactfully, "My wife, I am weak and cannot withstand such teasing-"
"Mr. Huo, we've been married for over a month, right? Aren't you ashamed that we haven't consummated our marriage in such a long time?" The woman raised her head. Her cheeks were clearly flushed red, but she refused to back down. She was very aggressive. "Don't play tricks on me. Just tell me straight up, is it me or you who can't do it?"
"I'm not kidding, I'm really kidding—"
"Okay! Feeling weak, huh? Just wait, I'm going to the pharmacy to pick up some medicine! Tiger penis and deer antlers... I'll fill you up with all these!"
Huo Ziheng hurriedly grabbed the person who was about to rush out and said earnestly, "My wife, there's a saying that goes 'the weak cannot be nourished.' It's not that I don't want to, but if a weak person is rashly nourished, it may not make him stronger, but it may very well cost him his life."
Ah Xian was speechless for a long time. After a long while, her face fell and she stared at him, trying to negotiate, "...Is a small supplement okay?"
Huo Ziheng, "..."
He tilted his head and burst out laughing. The more he laughed, the more uncontrollable he became, and tears came out of his eyes.
"Huo Ziheng!" Ah Xian was furious. Afraid that someone would hear his name, she yelled softly. Then, in a rage, she raised her fist and brought it down lightly, "Laugh, laugh, laugh! You're going to die of laughter! Are you kidding me?"
"Yes, I really can't make up for it, hahaha!"
As Ah Xian was pounding her, she started to laugh, but after she finished laughing she felt sad.
Stinky man.
Admitting that you are not good enough will really hit your self-esteem.
She shamelessly threw herself into the man's arms again, hugged his waist, and listened to his steady heartbeat. "Damn man, wait until we settle down, I'll find you a good doctor who will definitely cure you. Don't be sad, isn't there an old saying that goes, illness comes like a mountain and goes like a thread. We'll treat it slowly, I'm not in a hurry at all."
The man stopped laughing.
After a while, he finally heard a low voice from above his head, "Okay."
Ah Xian pressed her cheek against where his heart was beating, and curled up the corners of her lips quietly.
Forget it, it doesn’t matter what kind of man I choose.
Who made her like him?
It’s just that we can’t consummate the marriage for the time being. I’m not in a hurry at all, really not.
As she comforted herself, she felt a sense of strength in her shoulders.
The man gently pushed her away, lowered his eyes and stared at her puzzled eyes. There was a faint smile on his face, but his eyes were particularly deep.
He chuckled softly and said, "I'm sorry that I can't consummate our marriage. How about compensating you in some other way?"
"Other ways? How to compensate?" Ah Xian was excited, her eyes shining.
The man raised his lips, his handsome face lowered, and two words floated into her ears with a smile, "Like this."
"!!!" Their lips pressed together, their breaths blending together. The unprecedented experience made Ah Xian's eyes widen and her heart almost stopped.
The noise outside the window disappeared in an instant, and the whole world became extremely quiet.
The quiet chaotic heartbeat is deafening.
Ah Xian's eyes turned dark and her legs went weak.
Oh shit!
Damn it!
Mother! Mother! Mother!
Fuck, it really hurts!
