Chapter 63 Then I can’t live anymore and become the heat of exhalation…
The hot breath he exhaled felt like a feather scratching the tip of his heart, making Yan Heng's throat feel tight and itchy.
He was almost convinced, and asked impatiently: "Really?"
"Really." Ji Yunchan nodded.
Her heart was beating very fast, and when she looked up, the man holding her had a dark look in his eyes, like a hungry wolf.
Her face was lifted up firmly, and she was kissed deeply, lingering for a long time...
…
Yan Heng looked at the bloodstains on the bed and fell into deep thought.
Ji Yunchan stood aside, her eyelashes trembling slightly, not daring to look at anyone.
Until a rather resentful sneer came out of Yan Heng's mouth: "Ji Yunchan, won't you explain?"
"...I think my period has come." She said in a low voice, standing up, "Let me confirm it." Then she went to the bathroom.
Yan Heng didn't move. He took a deep breath and heard a low cry from the bathroom, followed by the voice of Ji Yunchan ordering the maid.
He looked at the bloodstains of varying depths from his legs to the bed, paused for a moment, then called for someone to change the blood-stained bedding, fill a hot water bottle, and change his own clothes.
When Ji Yunchan came out, Yan Heng stared at her with a hint of resignation. He took her hand, his voice still hoarse from the emotion he had just felt: "You don't know when to seduce someone, huh?"
There wasn't much blame in his words. He pulled her back into his arms, caressed her belly, and said, "It seems your illness has healed."
Ji Yunchan felt sympathetic and hummed softly. Thinking back to when she didn't know her menstruation was coming and she was still saying those words seriously, her face became hot and she couldn't help but cover her face and rest her head on Yan Heng's chest.
Yan Heng just laughed.
Ji Yunchan felt guilty, so she turned around and leaned over to kiss him, whispering, "How about I help my husband relieve this?"
Yan Heng pinched her cheek with a little force, raised his chin and looked at her: "How can it be the same? You are just mad at me."
Ji Yunchan let out an "Ah" and pretended to be in pain.
"You're so spoiled." Yan Heng still looked fierce and reached out to rub the place he had just pinched.
Ji Yunchan smiled for a while, then looked up at him and asked considerately, "Really?"
The top-down perspective made Yan Heng look a little anxious. He hugged her and turned her over, rolling into the quilt. "No, go to sleep."
While thinking that maybe it was God's will that the first time should be at home, Ji Yunchan stretched out her curled legs a little and touched something warm.
At that time, she was in the bathroom and didn't notice the noise outside. She just came out and saw that the quilt had been changed, but she didn't know that Yan Heng had put a hot water bottle in it. Ji Yunchan felt warm in her heart and moved forward, getting closer to Yan Heng: "Ah Heng, how thoughtful."
A humming sound came from the darkness, and Yan Heng pulled the person into his arms, "Go to sleep."
......
It was still dark outside, with the occasional crowing of roosters coming through the distant night. Ji Yunchan opened her eyes dazedly and felt around, but the person next to her was gone.
There was a faint light at the other end of the door. She sat up slowly and saw that the curtain at the door was lifted. Yan Heng was standing at the door, talking to someone holding a lantern outside.
"Action... Be careful..." Fragments of words came faintly, her mind was in chaos, she accepted these words hesitantly, but did not process them, she only instinctively thought, "What is Ah Heng doing at the door..."
Before he could figure it out, the curtain at the door was lowered. Yan Heng walked back and saw Ji Yunchan sitting there in a daze, obviously still asleep. He asked, "Why are you awake? Did I disturb you?"
Ji Yunchan shook her head slowly, now a little more awake, and asked blankly, "Is there any change?"
Her slender body was only in her nightgown, and she was still worried about him even though she wasn't fully awake. Yan Heng's heart softened. He took off the clothes she was wearing, held her and lay down again, comforting her, "No, go to sleep."
Ji Yunchan hummed softly, closed her eyes again, and hugged the person in front of her.
After the incident, the two of them slept in each other's arms until dawn.
In the morning, when Ji Yunchan woke up, Yan Heng was still asleep.
The battle had lasted for a long time, and she had almost gotten used to sleeping alone. When she realized that Yan Heng had returned safely and was sleeping in her arms, Ji Yunchan felt an infinite happiness in her heart.
She gently curled the corners of her lips and reached out to stroke Yan Heng's face, from his eyebrows to his eyelashes, and then to his tall nose bridge.
Yan Heng's eyelids trembled. He grabbed her soft hand and rubbed it against his cheek. He opened his eyes and spoke in a lazy voice, still like someone who had just woken up: "Why are you bothering me so early in the morning?"
"Aheng, are you awake?" Ji Yunchan's eyes were curved and tender.
"Awake." Yan Heng responded and moved closer to his loved ones.
The two met again after a long separation, and they made love in bed for a while before getting up.
Ji Yunchan sat in front of the dressing table, combing her hair that was messed up by Yan Heng. Yan Heng washed his face in the copper basin on the side, wiped it, walked behind her, and put his hand on her shoulder.
Ji Yunchan leaned back slightly and leaned on him.
Yan Heng looked at the two people standing close together in the bronze mirror. The more he looked, the more he felt they were a perfect match. He couldn't help but say, "At most, in another month, when I finish here, we can go back, okay?"
Ji Yunchan originally thought that he was stationed here and couldn't easily return. Hearing this, she was very surprised and turned to look at him: "Really?"
Yan Heng picked up a strand of her hair, twisted it around his fingertips, and nodded: "Of course."
Ji Yunchan's eyes lit up when she got a positive answer. She was obviously a little excited and ate more breakfast than usual. When she was almost done, she remembered what happened in the middle of the night and asked Yan Heng, "Ah Heng, what happened last night?"
Not wanting to interrupt her good mood, Yan Heng casually said, "Nothing." Then he felt he shouldn't hide it from her, so he paused and added, "There's been some movement from Xu Songjin."
Ji Yunchan looked up and motioned for him to continue.
But then he suddenly said, "I'm going to host a banquet for them at my house today."
"Today?" Ji Yunchan hadn't been in trouble before, but now she was startled by his sudden idea. "I'm afraid it's too late today."
"I just came up with this idea last night when I heard the news." Yan Heng said, "It's okay, don't worry about it. I gave the order right away."
Ji Yunchan nodded, not understanding why.
"I intend to take this opportunity to arrest the person." Yan Heng couldn't help but say a few more words, and warned: "I have a 100% chance of success, but it will inevitably involve the use of knives and guns. It's still a bit dangerous. Don't go ahead. I'm afraid those people will jump off the cliff in desperation."
"Hey." Ji Yunchan agreed, but seeing Yan Heng hesitated to speak, she asked, "Anything else?"
"If we see someone acting suspiciously..." Yan Heng struggled in his heart for a moment. He didn't want to involve her, but he knew that Xu was suspicious, so he hesitated for a moment.
One hand gently covered his hand, and Yan Heng met Ji Yunchan's gaze. She saw a clear look in her eyes and said softly, "I know. I know what's going on."
......
With Yan Heng's words in the morning, Ji Yunchan took the opportunity to fall into the trap when she saw the second-class maid in the courtyard's lie that was full of loopholes and poorly acted.
Being led to the edge of the pool, the maid left on the pretext of something. Ji Yunchan lowered her eyes to look at the redness that could not be covered by her sleeves - that was caused by herself, with marks from pinching and sucking, and it was much heavier than what Yan Heng had done before.
After all, I have already guessed who I will meet. How can people believe it if it is not realistic?
Similar excuses as last time, similar place, and these people... She sneered in her heart, with a blank expression on her face. When she raised her eyes, she saw a man in brocade clothes, who looked like a banished immortal, walking towards her from a distance.
Ji Yunchan took a deep breath, barely audible, and when she looked up again, the person had already approached.
"Miss Ji." Xu Songjin spoke with a gentle smile on his face as she expected.
Ji Yunchan's eyes widened, as if she was startled. Then she bowed and said, "Master Xu." Her words stumbled a little due to her nervousness. "...Your Excellency should call me Madam Yan."
He added, "Today's celebration banquet is in the front yard. Your Excellency shouldn't come here."
Xu Songjin spoke lightly, hiding the dark color in his eyes: "Miss Ji, it was me who asked you out."
Ji Yunchan took two steps back in confusion and raised her head suddenly, as if she hadn't realized it at all.
Xu Songjin took in everything and said, "It's been many years since we last met. Why is Miss Ji so estranged from me?"
Ji Yunchan spoke in a low voice: "What do you mean by unfamiliar? Your Excellency is joking... Men and women should not touch each other, and I am already a married woman..." She spoke hesitantly, but it was obvious that she was somewhat resistant to him.
Xu Songjin's smile didn't reach his eyes. He looked her up and down, and the red mark on her wrist, which couldn't be covered even by the drooping sleeves, seemed to be a casual question: "Is he good to you?"
"It's fine. We were engaged as children and have been close friends since childhood... How could he treat me badly?" The words were as light as a breeze, unable to even sweep away dead leaves. His words were so weak that he didn't even believe it.
"Really?" Xu Songjin took two steps forward, grabbed her wrist and lifted it up.
The sleeve fell down with the movement, revealing a part of the arm. The arm, which should have been as white as jade, was covered with red marks, alternating between red and purple, as if it had been pinched and kissed by someone. It was a horrible sight.
Xu Songjin's face was cold, and his tone was a little more fierce: "Then what are these!"
Ji Yunchan frowned in pain and tried to pull her arm back like a frightened bird, but she couldn't. She had to try to cover up the embarrassing marks by pulling up her sleeve with her other hand, until Xu Songjin grabbed her other wrist.
But the person in front of him was even more bewildered, looking around in panic, his voice trembling: "Master Xu, let me go."
Perhaps because he saw that she was really scared, Xu Songjin condescended to comfort her: "Don't worry, your good husband is in the front hall and has no time to come here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Yunchan's struggle weakened.
In a place where she couldn't see, Xu Songjin smiled and asked softly, "Does it hurt?"
The girl, whose wrist was held, shrank back and stopped struggling. After a while, she nodded gently and whispered, "It hurts..." When she looked up, her eyes were red.
Although her temper wasn't what it used to be, her expression was still as bright as ever. Seeing her pitiful expression, Xu Songjin couldn't help but soften his tone and said coaxingly, "Why didn't you just promise me back then? Hmm?"
Ji Yunchan simply withdrew her hand and pulled down her sleeve, as if trying to convince herself rather than telling him: "I won't be anyone's concubine."
Xu Songjin sighed, looked at the person in front of him, and lowered his voice a bit: "I have no choice but to do this."
"What?" The girl in front of him looked up in surprise.
"You know my mother's temper." Xu Songjin looked a little sad. He looked at Ji Yunchan affectionately and recalled that time: "I wanted to take it slow, but you have such a fierce temper."
Ji Yunchan said nothing and lowered her eyes.
"For all these years, no matter how many promotions I've gotten, I've never married, simply because I can't forget you." Xu Songjin reached out and took Ji Yunchan's wrist again, looking down at the unbearable marks, tears streaming down his face as he spoke. "Seeing you like this, I wish I could take your place..."
Ji Yunchan forced herself not to resist and didn't believe a word they said.
"Master Xu," she interrupted him in a suppressed tone, still with her head lowered: "This is out of line, the past..." Before she finished speaking, she saw someone passing by in the distance.
Xu Songjin immediately pulled everyone to hide in the cave in the rockery.
The vagina was narrow and the two people were almost touching each other. Ji Yunchan suppressed her nausea and trembled uncontrollably.
Xu Songjin thought she was afraid, so he put his hand on her shoulder and whispered to her, "Don't be afraid."
Ji Yunchan closed her eyes and dug her nails into her palms.
......
The cave was silent for a moment. Outside, several maids walked by, talking and laughing in low voices. Xu Songjin waited patiently for a while, but when they were far away, he didn't want to leave.
In such a narrow space, the girl in front of him looked even more pitiful, as if she were in his arms. He lowered his eyes to look at her and whispered seductively, "They're gone, Miss Ji, do you want to come with me too?"
Ji Yunchan looked up in panic, then lowered her head again, without any hope: "Your Excellency is joking..."
"I'm not joking." Xu Songjin said.
These words were like a reassurance, causing Ji Yunchan to raise her head.
Xu Songjin was very satisfied with her reaction. He continued, almost aggressively, "Is he good to you? Has he rescued your father? Has he helped your mother?"
It was you who didn't do these things, Ji Yunchan thought with disgust. The thought flashed through her mind, and she just kept shaking her head, her eyes moist.
Xu Songjin refused to give in, pressing him like he was promising: "Come with me, I'll rescue your father, okay?"
Ji Yunchan stopped shaking her head, stared at him blankly, tears streaming down her face, and asked with a choked voice, "Really?"
Seeing that she was persuaded, Xu Songjin's lips curled up and he promised without hesitation: "Of course." He gently wiped away the tear with loving care.
Ji Yunchan hesitated and said, "But...how can I go with you?"
At this point in the play, her tears were real, her trembling was real, but it wasn't for what he thought. Seeing that Xu Songjin was completely convinced, Ji Yunchan took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve and handed it to her.
He instructed: "Take advantage of the chaos and put it into his meal today."
Ji Yunchan's breathing became lighter, and her eyes widened, not daring to close them.
Xu Songjin saw it all. If he had some doubts about her at the beginning, now 90% of his suspicions had disappeared. He couldn't help but sneer in his heart. How could he be defeated by a woman? When Yan Heng was doomed and became his, he would compensate her well.
He didn't show it on his face, he just said softly: "Don't worry, this medicine won't kill him. It will only make him half-paralyzed and unable to make payments."
Ji Yunchan then nodded slightly, breathed a sigh of relief, and accepted it.
Seeing that the matter was settled, Xu Songjin slowly made way, and the two of them left the cave together. He said, "It's bitterly cold in Shuozhou, do you miss home?"
Ji Yunchan paused slightly and nodded sincerely for the first time.
Then I heard him say, "Wait for your good news. When it's done, we'll go back together."
Ji Yunchan sneered inwardly. She thought that she shouldn't be sincere towards an enemy who was so hypocritical. She murmured "hmm".
Xu Songjin regained his gentlemanly demeanor, looked at her affectionately, and nodded gently to her, "It's getting late, I'll be leaving first."
Ji Yunchan nodded, stood there for a moment, and waited until everyone walked away before taking a deep breath and getting up to leave.
But she didn't expect that after she took two steps out, the servants along the way looked at her with strange eyes.
Ji Yunchan understood. This was because they were afraid that she would not obey, so they spread the word, thinking that she was afraid that Yan Heng would hear about it and would be forced to take the risk.
What a suspicious person! Ji Yunchan felt disgusted and her heart sank.
As she was thinking about this, the maid who had just led her to the pool came forward boldly and asked her, "Madam, are you going to the front hall?"
Ji Yunchan glanced at her and said, "Go back to your room."
As if she had not expected her to refuse, the maid was stunned for a moment, "This..."
Ji Yunchan whispered and explained to her: "I need to slow down."
The maidservant had no suspicion and said nothing more. She followed Ji Yunchan to the room in the backyard, pretending to be serving her but actually to monitor her.
Even a second-class maid could be bribed, Ji Yunchan thought. He's quite capable. She had to find a way to get through to Yan Heng. She pondered this as she slowly walked back to her room.
On a rainy night, I was in the house and saw Ji Yunchan followed by a maid who usually didn't enter the house, and I was a little confused.
Seeing that the master seemed to be preoccupied with something, he was not in a position to speak, so he stepped forward to pour water and asked, "Madam, what's wrong?"
Ji Yunchan finished her tea in silence. Then she spoke, "Help me redo my makeup." She then instructed the second-class maid who had been standing beside her, "Bring a basin of water."
The maid hesitated for a moment, and when she saw Yu Ye looking at her, she was afraid that something was wrong and left.
Ji Yunchan stood up and sat in front of the dressing table. She changed her attitude and waved to Yuye. The latter leaned over and listened to his master's whisper.
Yuye's expression suddenly changed.
She looked at Ji Yunchan in shock, and seeing her calm eyes, she regained her composure and asked, "What can this servant do?"
"Don't let anyone see this. Go tell Yan Heng." Ji Yunchan turned back to the mirror and met Yu Ye's gaze in the mirror. "Do my makeup for me."
Yuye paused, "Yes."
When the second-class maid entered, she saw Yuye deftly combing Ji Yunchan's hair. She put down the copper basin and stood aside.
After combing her hair and washing her face, Ji Yunchan changed her clothes and went to the front hall.
......
As soon as she entered the front hall, she saw Xu Song, who had made false promises to her just two quarters of an hour ago, sitting there leisurely, just like he always was.
Ji Yunchan withdrew her gaze and went towards Yan Heng.
Yan Heng seemed not to notice her until she walked in front of him. Then he paused and said, his tone unreadable: "Why are you here?"
Ji Yunchan smiled timidly: "My husband has won and is hosting a banquet at home. How can I not come?"
Yan Heng snorted and laughed, not knowing whether it was okay or not.
Ji Yunchan walked over tactfully and sat down obediently.
The scene was awkward for a moment, but a kindhearted person spoke up, raised his glass to Yan Heng and said, "General, you have won a great battle. I am truly delighted. I offer you a toast."
Yan Heng also raised his glass in response: "You are too kind."
At this time, Chang Sui came in from outside and reported: "General, Lord Wang and Du Tongzhi are here."
Yan Heng stood up and said, "Please come in," and then walked out to greet them.
Seeing him stand up, the others followed suit.
Yan Heng refused and made a "sit" gesture, saying: "Please sit down first, everyone. Don't be polite. I'll be back soon." He then ordered Ji Yunchan: "You stay." Everyone looked at each other in confusion.
Seeing Yan Heng walk out, Ji Yunchan spoke sympathetically, breaking the awkwardness: "Everyone, please take a seat first. I'll go to the kitchen to take a look."
The maid beside him followed.
Over there, Yan Heng walked towards the door, and when he reached a deserted spot, he uttered one word without looking away: "Speak."
Chang Sui leaned in closer and whispered a few words.
"I understand." Yan Heng's face was as gloomy as water, and he walked forward quickly.
Chang Sui retreated silently.
......
Yan Heng walked to the door, smiled at Wang Yuan and Du Ning, and said, "Master Wang, Deputy Magistrate Du, we've been waiting for you."
Wang Yuan and Du Ning looked at each other, wondering when this man had become so polite to them.
"Please." Yan Heng made a gesture of invitation.
The two of them couldn't figure it out, so they were led all the way inside by him.
Many people were already seated in the hall. After exchanging pleasantries, Yan Heng raised his glass and addressed the two men: "Thanks to your unwavering support in Shuozhou City, we have never run out of food and fodder. I, Yan, would like to offer my respects to you two."
Du Ning felt a toothache when he heard this. He had promised to lend the money, but he didn't mention paying it back. How would he make a living next year... He was worried, but there was nothing he could do, so he had to raise his glass with Wang Yuan.
Wang Yuan was happy to take the credit, "You're welcome, General."
After everyone drank the wine in their cups, Ji Yunchan came back with her maid, carrying soup on a tray.
Yan Heng's voice was flat, "What were you doing?"
"I went to the kitchen to bring some soup. Drinking is harmful to your health. My husband, please drink some soup first." As she said this, she handed the bowl of soup to Yan Heng, and the maidservant beside her distributed it to the people present.
"You're nosy." Yan Heng didn't look at her and let her hold it.
The gaze from the opposite side was thick and sticky, as if it had substance. Ji Yunchan's scalp was numb, and she continued to persuade: "Husband, at least give me some cushion..."
Yan Heng impatiently tried to take the bowl, but Ji Yunchan watched helplessly as his hand reached out, inch by inch, and despair welled up in her heart. Didn't he see that? Or had the letter not been delivered?
......
There was a sudden change in the crowd, and Xu Songjin was so shocked that he almost stood up.
Just as Yan Hengfang took the bowl of soup, his wife, who had always been obedient to him, snatched it back and drank it down in big gulps.
When Yan Heng took it again, only the bottom of the soup was left.
His heart trembled, and he slammed the bowl to the ground, shattering it into pieces. A group of sword-wielding soldiers rushed in. Yan Heng himself pulled the wife, who had just been refusing to respond, over and pinched her jaw, forcing her to open her mouth in pain. Then, without hesitation, he pressed his fingers against the base of her tongue and pushed it down her throat.
Ji Yunchan couldn't help but vomited violently.
Tears welled up in her eyes and she struggled unconsciously in pain.
Yan Heng did not give up and continued to hold her, even though his hands were scratched by her teeth, until Ji Yunchan vomited everything in her stomach.
He then let go and helped the person sit aside, gritting his teeth and saying, "Ji Yunchan!"
Ji Yunchan was still feeling uncomfortable. She coughed twice, gasped weakly, and shivered as she took out a handkerchief and wiped herself. "I thought you didn't notice..." Before she finished her words, she started coughing again.
This is not just a marriage to be put on display, it is obvious that they are deeply in love.
On the other side, Xu Songjin, who had seen everything, was about to burst his eyes, unable to believe it.
The soldiers with swords had already controlled everyone present. Some people who were unaware of the situation could not help but panic: "General, what are you doing?"
Yan Heng stood up, blood still dripping from his hands.
He looked around at everyone and said, "As for what I'm going to do, you should ask Lord Wang and Lord Xu."
Xu Songjin gritted his teeth, "Yan Heng! You're holding an imperial official hostage. Are you planning a rebellion?"
"It's you who wants to rebel!"
Yan Heng threw the evidence from his sleeve and gave a look. The bribed second-class maid was escorted by the guards and knelt on the ground.
"Everyone present, please bear witness for me." Yan Heng's gaze swept across the crowd and landed on Du Ning: "Du Tongzhi, supervision and trial are your duties."
Du Ning was sweating profusely. He couldn't believe that he had never offended the prefect, but this master had trapped him in this situation with just one sentence. He had never thought that this would be a Hongmen Banquet before coming here.
Then I realized that I had to express my own opinion.
Du Ning took a deep breath and agreed. Now that he had completely chosen sides, he thought that his years of cautious self-preservation would be of no use.
Seeing this, Yan Heng signaled to take the man away. The unrelated people loosened their hold, and everyone was in a state of shock and confusion. Du Ning was overwhelmed.
In an instant, the matter was settled.
Yan Heng didn't stop for a moment, picked up Ji Yunchan, who was obviously a little depressed, and hurried out, leaving Chang Sui to deal with the aftermath.
As soon as the patient was carried into the house, Doctor Li arrived after hearing the news.
Doctor Li held his breath and took the pulse. Yan Heng's hands were shaking. He nervously asked Ji Yunchan, who was exhausted, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"Yeah." Ji Yunchan responded. She had just vomited and her throat was burning. Her voice was hoarse. "I want to drink some water."
"No." Yan Heng was afraid that she hadn't vomited everything, so he didn't dare to give her any to drink.
Ji Yunchan frowned slowly, "So fierce."
Yan Heng was extremely panicked. Her behavior just now was still vivid in his mind, so glaring. Hearing her words, his anger flared up. "Shut up."
Ji Yunchan really shut up. Yan Heng waited for a moment, his heart growing heavier, and couldn't help but say, "Yuanyuan, say something."
.......
Doctor Li, who was standing by, couldn't bear to watch any longer. He withdrew his hand and said, "It's nothing serious. He vomited just in time."
"Really?" Yan Heng was skeptical, "But she doesn't look like she's okay."
Doctor Li soothed him, "Weak hands and feet, lack of strength. These are the symptoms of taking a small amount. They will be gone in a few hours. It's the same as a knockout drug."
Yan Heng heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing the voice.
Doctor Li wrote a prescription and said goodbye. The maid went to boil the medicine and brought it up.
Yan Heng sat aside, closing his eyes. The anger he had suppressed just now surfaced again after confirming that she was fine. At breakfast, she swore to him that she knew what was going on. This was what she meant by knowing what was going on! She almost got herself into trouble!
"Ah Heng." Ji Yunchan called him.
Yan Heng's face turned pale. "Drink the medicine."
Ji Yunchan glanced at the medicine bowl on the bedside table and said softly with a hint of coquettishness, "But I don't have the strength."
Yan Heng didn't look at her and called out, "Rainy night."
Before Yuye came over, Yanheng felt someone pulling up the corner of his clothes and gently tugging at them.
He turned his head and met Ji Yunchan's wet eyes. Those were the tears that came from her eyes because she was forced to vomit. She slowly pulled the corner of her clothes towards herself. When she saw him looking at her, she said, "But, I want my husband to feed me."
This is not something that can be forgiven by pretending to be good, Yan Heng thought, she really likes to take risks, she needs to be taught a lesson.
......
......
Yan Heng impatiently helped the person lean against him and picked up the medicine bowl.
The girl before him seemed boneless, and Yan Heng couldn't help but think of the snowy night when he brought her back. Back then, she had leaned against him like this, unconscious, like a fragile flower about to break.
Yan Heng felt a bitter feeling in his heart.
He was speechless for a moment as he scooped up the dark medicine and placed it against her lips. The girl in his arms obediently opened her mouth and swallowed it mouthful by mouthful. Yan Heng fed her like this, and Ji Yunchan drank it like this, and the bowl of medicine was soon empty.
"It's so bitter..." She complained softly and looked at his expression: "Can I have tea now?"
Yan Heng looked at her with a complicated expression.
After this experience, Ji Yunchan also became hypocritical and didn't want to listen to any more words. Seeing that he didn't respond, she turned away in a tantrum, looking like she was about to cry, and scolded him: "I didn't know you saw it... You are so cruel."
Yan Heng turned her around and stuffed a candy into her mouth.
Ji Yunchan blinked and stopped crying.
"I'm not mad at you, I just..." He couldn't finish his words. Yan Heng closed his eyes. Shouldn't he have dragged her into this? Given Ji Yunchan's personality, he definitely wouldn't want to hide anything from her. So he compromised and said, "Yuanyuan, I know you're worried about me. You're doing this for me. I shouldn't blame you, but..."
The sugar melted between her lips and teeth, dispelling the bitterness of the medicine. Ji Yunchan lay in Yan Heng's arms, quietly waiting for his next words.
"I'm just as worried about you as you are. I don't want you to put yourself in danger." He lowered his eyes, avoiding her gaze, and poured out a cup of tea, bringing it to her lips, "Drink."
Ji Yunchan saw his expression, opened her mouth, but said nothing.
She wanted to say something like "I won't do it next time", something light and light that would not offend him, but when it came to her lips, she suddenly realized that this would not work.
She seemed to be doing this over and over again.
So she just finished the tea.
Yan Heng didn't expect her to say anything. He put down the teacup and gently touched her cheek. "I'm not afraid of almost anything, but Yuanyuan, I'm also afraid of that snowy night, the snowy night when I brought you back."
"The way you looked just now reminded me of that time."
The intense worry almost overflowed from his body. It would have been fine if he was just worried, but besides being worried, he also looked very sad.
Ji Yunchan's eyes slowly turned red.
Yan Heng sighed, nuzzled her nose lovingly, and continued, "At that time, I thought that if you left like this, I would not be able to live."
