Chapter 119 I Love You
Xiao Yuchen led Jiang Nanyuan deep into the dense forest, the rough tree trunks rubbing against her back. He clasped her delicate wrist with one hand and lifted it above her head, while his other hand rested on the tree trunk by her ear, trapping her in this tiny space.
His eyes were as dark as ink, filled with emotions that Jiang Nanyuan could not understand.
"Xiao Yuchen, what's wrong with you?" She struggled against her restrained wrist, only to be restrained even harder. The sunlight filtered through the branches, casting mottled shadows on his face, making his features even sharper. "Let go!"
The man's hot breath sprayed on her neck, and Jiang Nanyuan suddenly realized something was wrong. This was not like the usual Xiao Yuchen. She subconsciously touched his pulse, but he grabbed her fingers with his backhand, intertwining them and pressing them against the rough bark.
Could it be that the cold poison has taken effect? This doesn't make sense. It's not a full moon now. Could it be that I've been poisoned?
Thinking of this, Jiang Nanyuan wanted to break free from his hand and check him, but no matter how hard she tried, Xiao Yuchen would not let go and just stared at her for a moment.
Just when Jiang Nanyuan was about to use her spiritual power to push him away, Xiao Yuchen leaned down and kissed Jiang Nanyuan's pink lips.
"Mmmm..." Jiang Nanyuan was really frightened by his action. She widened her eyes and wanted to speak, but Xiao Yuchen took the opportunity to slip in.
Jiang Nanyuan saw him getting closer and closer, almost pressing on her stomach. She bit Xiao Yuchen hard, and the smell of blood spread in their mouths.
Xiao Yuchen finally let go of Jiang Nanyuan, but still stared at him with red eyes.
"Xiao Yuchen, what are you crazy about?"
The moment Jiang Nanyuan let go, she raised her hand to slap him, but before the slap landed, Xiao Yuchen caught it.
"Jiang Nanyuan, even if I die, I will not sell my body to please other women, except you."
Jiang Nanyuan was stunned for a moment. Was he angry because of what she had just said? And what else was there besides her?
How could he say such a thing? Could it be that he recognized me? That's why he said such a thing? If that were the case, wouldn't he also know that the baby in her belly was his?
"Is this why you're angry? If you don't want to refuse, then just do it. Why did you bring me here?" Jiang Nanyuan really didn't know what he was angry about.
Seeing Jiang Nanyuan's indifferent expression, Xiao Yuchen felt like he was about to explode with anger. He had explained it so clearly, why didn't she understand?
He angrily pounded his fist on the tree trunk behind her, then gritted his teeth and said, "Jiang Nanyuan, are you really unable to see or are you just pretending that I love you? I've checked, and your former husband is dead. I'm willing to take responsibility for the children in your belly and be their father.
Can you give me a chance? As long as I am alive, I will protect you and the child."
This was the first time that Xiao Yuchen cared so much about a woman. After saying this, he felt a little guilty.
Why did he say what was in his heart? He didn't know if she would be scared by him. Xiao Yuchen thought so and didn't even dare to look up and look at Jiang Nanyuan.
I was also afraid that she would reject me.
Jiang Nanyuan's mouth remained slightly open for a long time. Was he... pleased with himself? No? What was going on?
It seems like I haven't done anything to cause him to misunderstand?
She thought he knew that she was that woman, but from what he said just now, he didn't know. How could he accept the child in her belly?
Jiang Nanyuan was so shocked that she didn't know how to answer him. After thinking for a long time, she spoke.
"I'll think about this matter and see how you perform later. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
After Jiang Nanyuan finished speaking, he turned around and used Qinggong to leave the place.
After she left, Xiao Yuchen was not in a hurry to leave. He licked his lips that had just been bitten by Jiang Nanyuan, and a meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
This blood is actually sweet.
On the way back, Jiang Nanyuan's mind was a little unstable because she was really too shocked.
At the same time, she was thinking about another question in her mind. In fact, she was not very averse to him. He was handsome and also met her aesthetic standards.
Besides, the child in my belly now is his. If he really likes me, since he is the father of the child, I can consider accepting him.
When Jiang Nanyuan returned to Lin Zhixue, Lin Zhixue saw that she came back alone and looked behind her twice.
Not seeing Xiao Yuchen, she pulled her aside and asked worriedly, "Yuan'er, where did the Ninth Prince take you just now? Did you go to look for that Amuyi?"
When Lin Zhixue saw Xiao Yuchen taking Jiang Nanyuan away, she was worried to death. She heard that Amuyi could poison insects.
She was afraid that the two of them would go straight to her and cause trouble. What if one of them got caught? Yuan'er was still pregnant.
"Mom, it's okay. Don't worry too much. He pulled me over just to talk. He didn't go to find Amuyi."
"What's wrong with your lips? Why is there blood?" Lin Zhixue pointed at her lips and asked in confusion.
Jiang Nanyuan didn't notice it. She reached out and wiped her lips with the back of her hand, and sure enough, she wiped blood.
When she thought that she might have bitten Xiao Yuchen's lips and got his blood on them, her face turned slightly red.
"Mom, it's okay. Maybe it got stained somewhere accidentally."
Lin Zhixue wanted to ask more questions, but at this time Li Wei came quickly from not far away and walked in front of them. He nodded to Lin Zhixue.
Then he spoke anxiously to Jiang Nanyuan, "Miss Jiang, something's wrong. I just went into the city and visited all the pharmacies.
I wanted to buy some more medicinal herbs to treat the epidemic, but the pharmacy in the city said they were out of them.
I asked people to go to nearby towns to look for the herbs, but they couldn't find any. Now there are not many herbs left, and they can only last them two more days at most.
What will we do if we don’t have the herbs?”
Jiang Nanyuan said that those medicines need to be taken for seven consecutive days. If you stop taking them in the middle, the effect will not be as good and the epidemic may not be cured.
Somehow the news that they were providing free porridge to treat the epidemic here got out, and today many refugees rushed here again.
Nearly fifty or sixty people came, among whom more than twenty were found to have the epidemic disease after Yue Li checked.
If more people come, they may not have enough medicine to treat these people.
"When you bought the herbs before, didn't the shopkeepers promise you they would get them from other places? Did you get them?"
Speaking of this, Li Wei sighed heavily, "They said the herbs haven't been transferred yet, so I didn't buy any."
When Jiang Nanyuan heard this, she couldn't help but frown. She always felt that something was strange. This matter was too coincidental.
Otherwise, there are so many pharmacies in this county town, and if one of them failed to deliver the medicinal materials, it is impossible that all of them failed to deliver them.
"Brother Li, please send someone to the nearby pharmacy to look for it again, and I'll help you think of a solution."
Li Wei nodded, said to Jiang Nanyuan, and turned to leave.
