Chapter 228 I'll Swim Back Now



There are dark clouds in the sky, black water surface, and a quiet island in the middle of the lake. Only the candlelight in the house is the only softness in his heart.

Chu Di drank the cup of herbal tea slowly and waited for a long while before brushing his clothes and going into the house.

"This fish is hard to catch. It looks like we can only go pick bayberries to eat tomorrow morning."

He sighed again.

He glanced at the food on the table, then looked at the small bulge on the bed.

Fell asleep again?

"Then let's sleep together. You won't feel hungry when you fall asleep." As soon as I lifted a corner of the quilt, I saw her body trembling slightly.

His eyes softened and he pulled the person into his arms from behind.

"Let me go!"

When the bodies made contact, Chu Li's reaction was very sensitive and he instantly became furious.

"If you sleep with me, I'll swim back right now!"

Chu Dichi looked at her and said, "Xiao Jiu, sleeping is not the only thing on my mind. Everything I do is based on you."

"It is because you came first that I love you and enjoy doing it, not because love came first that I have you."

That night, he just held her to sleep and did nothing else.

The wind was strong and the night was cool on the island. The two of them hugged each other, their body temperatures intertwined, their breaths mingled, and it was like falling into a land of tenderness, making Chu Dichi never want to wake up.

But Chu Li had a lot of thoughts in his mind:

Why does he always make so much sense?

That's a fallacy, right?

How come he is always so confident?

Are you bullying her just because you have eaten seven years longer than her?

She is very angry.

I was so angry that I fell asleep unknowingly. When I woke up, the sky outside the window was already bright. The warm sun was shining with golden light, and it seemed that even the air had a shape.

Chu Dichi had disappeared long ago.

On the table, there was a bowl of meat porridge.

Chu Li looked around and didn't see him, so he got up, put on his clothes, and filled his stomach before planning to return to Jiangnan City.

The island in the middle of the lake is too far away from the land, at least two hundred meters away, so it is unrealistic to swim there.

Must take a boat.

But where should the ship come from?

Since Chu Dichi has landed on the island, he must have a way to go back. He can contact the boatman, or he may have left some secret code.

Something similar to a mingdi.

Chu Li immediately searched for the things he brought with him when he arrived on the island: six gift boxes.

But when I opened it, I saw...

Soft and long ribbons, furry little ears, round little balls, semi-transparent gauze clothes, and soft and long whips...

! !

His face suddenly turned red, like a cooked shrimp, and the temperature rose instantly.

shameful!

shameful!

They said it was a gift for General Xie. I thought it was ginseng, snow lotus and other supplements, but I didn't expect...

Bang!

Chu Li slammed the lid and rushed out with his ears buzzing. He kicked open the door, walked around the island in the middle of the lake, and saw the man sitting under the willows with a bamboo pole in his hand.

He is fishing.

The man had a dignified posture, his dark brocade robe was sprinkled with dappled sunlight, and the tip of his brow seemed like the tip of a melting iceberg, revealing an unprecedented sleepiness, laziness and enjoyment.

Sitting there, it's like a fine ink painting.

"Chu Dichi!"

Chu Li rushed over, "I want to go back!"

The man's eyebrows slightly raised, he looked at the place where the bamboo pole was put down, and observed the fish situation there.

"I want to go back to Jiangnan, call the boat over!"

In a quarter of an hour she would be gone.

She didn't want to stay on this island in the middle of the lake for even a moment!

Chu Li scolded the man a few times, but found that the man did not respond. She frowned in anger and stepped forward and kicked the bamboo pole in his hand away.

Chu Di sighed: "All the fish have been scared away, what are we going to eat for lunch?"

"I said, I want to go back to Jiangnan. I don't want to stay here anymore. I want to go back now!"

Chu Dichi stood up and just picked up the bamboo pole. Before he sat down, he was kicked away by Chu Li again.

He frowned, "..."

"You tricked me here. You are insidious, despicable, shameless, and a liar!" Chu Li listed his shortcomings, so many that she couldn't count them with ten fingers.

"Your good temper before was all fake!"

"I want to go back! I want to go back! I want... ugh!"

The man stretched out his long arms, pulled her to sit on his lap, and put his arms around her waist. "Did you sleep well last night?"

The topic spanned too far, and Chu Li was a little suspicious:

"What?"

Last night... she slept very well, without any dreams, and even slept until noon.

But how could this happen?

Shouldn't she always be on guard when she's around him?

"I haven't slept properly for a month. Since the night of the battle in Southern Xinjiang, since your death, I dare not even look at your corpse, let alone go to your grave. I don't believe the fact that you are dead."

Chu Dichi looked at her delicate face with burning eyes.

"I couldn't even sleep."

"You don't know, when I close my eyes, I see you covered in blood, slowly dying in my arms. Even though I have the power of an emperor, I can't keep you. I question myself time and time again, what is the use of power?"
