Chapter 136 Have you confessed your love to Yun Fuyu? Princess Xiaoyun
Xie Huaiyan's voice was very soft, as if he was deliberately trying to make his tone sound gentle, as if he was telling a story to a child.
"Of course I have to follow Princess Xiaoyun's long hair up to the tall tower to fulfill my promise to her and take her away from here."
Yun Fu Yu was straightforward.
"Are you looking for someone to help you with your spiritual needs?"
Xie Huaiyan smiled lightly.
"Princess Xiaoyun is so smart."
Yun Fuyu: “…”
Yun Fuyu repeatedly weighed the danger of Xie Huaiyan and the information he wanted to obtain, and cautiously touched the phosphorus powder of the butterfly spirit body... Butterfly Huaiyan didn't say a single serious word.
The dark clouds blocking the moon moved away again, and Xie Huaiyan turned his face to the side.
Yun Fuyu finally saw Xie Huaiyan's expression. It wasn't one of joy, but of calmness.
"I wanted you to choose only me, but... you've always been smart. So you already have the answer in your mind."
This seemed to be the first time Xie Huaiyan expressed his thoughts so directly.
"I need some time to deal with the internal affairs of the Xie family. Before that, if I get too close to you, it will put you in danger."
Yun Fuyu: "...What is my relationship with the Xie family?"
Xie Huaiyan remained silent.
After a long time, he walked towards Yun Fu Yu.
The bed was slightly sunken, and Xie Huaiyan sat on the edge of the bed, his breath moving closer.
Yun Fuyu wore a cool and smooth white pajamas when she slept, with her white arms hugging her knees.
At first glance, the snow-white neck and shoulders connected to the smooth and graceful arm lines are breathtakingly beautiful.
Xie Huaiyan slowly lowered his gaze to look at the sinner's mark on Yun Fuyu's neck.
Before he reached out to touch the back of Yun Fuyu's neck, Yun Fuyu slapped his hand away.
"Don't touch it."
Xie Huaiyan asked softly: "Does it hurt now?"
Yun Fuyu: "I don't feel anything."
If he ignored the appearance, he would not normally feel the presence of the Sinner's Mark.
Xie Huaiyan took Yun Fuyu's hand, placed it on his lips, and kissed it gently.
"Wait a little longer, okay? Once I get everything sorted... I'll tell you."
Very strange.
Yun Fuyu was sure that he was awake.
Before today, Yun Fuyu had always been quite wary of Xie Huaiyan.
But that glance at the school hospital at noon gave her an extremely familiar feeling - so familiar that Yun Fuyu couldn't help but want to see what Xie Huaiyan was going to do.
The conflict between intuition and reason has led to the current contradictory situation.
Xie Huaiyan changed the subject, and his dark eyebrows and pupils revealed a rare and obvious displeasure.
"You can choose the one who is more sane."
Xie Huaiyan wasn't targeting Yun Fuyu, of course. He was targeting a certain enemy who wasn't present. A love rival he hated so much he didn't even want to mention his name.
Yun Fuyu: "Are you talking about Zhaohui?"
Xie Huaiyan did not answer, but held Yun Fuyu's hand which was resting on the bed.
"But you have to be careful with him."
Yun Fuyu: “.”
Yun Fuyu: "Are you trying to say that I should trust you?"
Xie Huaiyan smiled lightly.
"That's not necessarily true. It's just that he has some value that you can use. Other mentors can't solve his spiritual domain problems, but you can. This is the real reason why the Chao family is approaching you."
Yun Fuyu wondered: "Why do you think I can solve it?"
Xie Huaiyan laughed again, his tone gentle, as if he was teasing a child.
"Because you are Princess Xiaoyun who can perform magic."
Yun Fuyu: “…”
Yun Fuyu didn't say anything, so Xie Huaiyan told the story.
"Zhao Hui is the tentative next head of the Chao family, but his position is not stable. You can cure Zhao Hui before Zhao Zhao returns. In this way, you can become a great benefactor to some people."
And "certain people", that is, the faction that supports Chaohui, is the best choice to check and balance Chaozhao.
The morning light is the balance point that Yun Fuyu needs.
The two of them coincided with each other in these ideas.
But there is one most important thing that Yun Fuyu must confirm clearly.
"Are you sure he's sane?"
If it turns out in the end that Chaohui's calmness and composure were all an act, and that he was actually crazier than Chaozhao - that would be troublesome.
When dealing with normal people, you have the opportunity to negotiate terms, but when dealing with a madman, you can only take action.
Xie Huaiyan reached out, took off his silver-rimmed glasses and held them in his hand.
Without the obstruction of lenses, the black eyes, as cold as a deep pool, stared directly at Yun Fuyu.
"I'm not sure."
Yun Fuyu: “…”
Xie Huaiyan: "But I am sure that he is a politician with a deep mind. He is counting on you to heal him, so he won't do anything to you until his spiritual realm recovers."
The moonlight is bright and quiet and never speaks.
One of them sat in the middle of the bed with his knees hugged and the quilt in his arms, while the other sat on the edge of the bed.
Relative silence.
Yun Fuyu stared into those calm black eyes.
It was cold and bottomless, but it carried some emotions that Yun Fuyu could not understand.
......Is this Xie Huaiyan’s true emotion?
Or is it another scene in the illusion?
After a long while, Xie Huaiyan asked, "Do you like the scenery of the military academy?"
Yun Fuyu: "This seems to have nothing to do with what we are talking about."
Xie Huaiyan spoke to himself.
"There's a vast ocean on the central planet, and every evening, the sunset turns the sky pink. The clouds are so close, you could almost touch them with just a raise of your hand."
His voice was low and bitter.
"The view is nice. It would be even better if it weren't... "
If not what?
Yun Fuyu looked at Xie Huaiyan seriously.
"If you have something you want to tell me, you'd better say it directly because I can't guess it."
Yun Fuyu is very smart.
But Xie Huaiyan was no longer playing dumb, but handed the mind-reading fill-in-the-blank to Yun Fuyu.
If a fortune teller like Jin Min was present, he might be able to guess a few of the meanings.
After a moment of silence, Xie Huaiyan smiled again.
"Okay. I just don't want you to give Zhaohui mental counseling."
But Xie Huaiyan would not stop Yun Fuyu's decision.
His slightly cool fingers brushed away Yun Fuyu's hair, and he leaned towards Yun Fuyu.
A cool kiss landed on Yun Fuyu's forehead.
"Don't forget me. At the latest during your third period of restlessness, if you encounter any problems you can't solve, come to me."
Yun Fuyu reached out and touched his forehead.
"Have we known each other before?"
The second kiss landed on the tip of Yun Fuyu's nose, and the warmth was felt instantly.
The cool kiss, along with the figure in front of me, dissipated in the sea breeze.
*
The other side.
The door of the Fenrir family hall closed.
The lights inside the lounge were on and the atmosphere was a bit heavy.
Lancelot: "I think the fundamental reason is that he doesn't trust the Fenrir family."
Cui Jue frowned, his expression fierce—but he slid to his knees as soon as he spoke.
"I'll go up to him and ask him to beat me up a few more times."
Yun Fuyu didn't trust them, and that must be because the apology was not strong enough.
After saying that, Cui Jue stood up suddenly.
Adrien rested his elbows on his knees and spoke coldly.
"stop."
Cui Jue looked annoyed and scratched his short hair.
"But--"
But if I don’t get Yun Fuyu’s forgiveness, Yun Fuyu will run away with those bastards from the Chao family!!
Adrian was also quite irritable, having already drunk several bottles of wine, and slammed his glass on the table.
"I'll go talk to the head of the family and have Yun Fuyu officially join the Fenrir family and give him the status of heir."
Adrian had promised Yun Fu Yu before and was just waiting for the right opportunity.
In his original plan, he would formally bring up this matter after Yun Fuyu defeated him in the battlefield and took the position of chief - because only in this way would everyone believe in Yun Fuyu.
Then Adrian could naturally hand over part of his forces to Yun Fuyu for management and take his time.
But there is a more urgent situation right now.
Adrian has not yet inherited the position of head of the family. Other things can be solved, but he cannot kick his father out of the position of head of the family.
...but I can't kick it down for the time being.
The current head of the Fenrir family appears easy to talk to on the surface, but in reality he is a control freak who wishes the whole world would run according to his ideas.
The old man had probably been trying to win over Yun Fuyu for a long time, and he knew it very well. But he said nothing, just waiting for Adrian to bring it up.
However, once Adrian brought it up, the head of the family would definitely not let go of this opportunity and would definitely create complications - for example, asking Yun Fuyu to marry Adrian.
Yun Fuyu would definitely disagree.
Sure enough, Lancelot shook his head decisively after hearing this.
"Even if the Patriarch agrees, Yun Fuyu will not agree."
Adrian frowned.
"I didn't intend to threaten her with marriage."
Lancelot thought, this is probably not the problem... Even if they don't get married, Yun Fuyu probably won't agree.
Before Lancelot could speak, Ji Xuanming on the other side spoke.
"I looked up the basic ways couples can build trust."
Ji Xuanming began to read with a serious and indifferent tone, as if he was reading a post-war review report.
"The most important thing is daily companionship. For example, moving in together, having breakfast, lunch and dinner together, traveling together..."
The "moving in together" aspect can barely be considered accomplished.
But the others don't seem to.
The scene now became extremely absurd.
A group of high-level psychics sat in the lounge, looking serious as if they were discussing the battle situation. In reality, they were listening to Ji Xuanming reading out a couple's guide he had found online...
Ji Xuanming: "Choose a gift that the other person likes and give it to them on important days. You can also give gifts on unimportant days to create surprises."
Ji Xuanming raised his eyes and looked at Adrian.
"Did you deliver it?"
Adrian: “…”
Adrien said nothing, his expression extremely fierce, his green eyes hidden in the shadows of his eye sockets, as if he was going to fight.
After a while, he spoke coldly...or stiffly.
"No."
Ji Xuanming nodded and continued reading.
"Increase the frequency of kissing. Like a good morning kiss, a good night kiss, a goodbye kiss."
Adrien took a deep breath.
"Skip it. We can't do this, otherwise Yun Fuyu will tear down the guild hall."
Ji Xuanming frowned and turned a few pages back.
The remaining volumes are even larger and not suitable for public reading.
In fact, Ji Xuanming believed that the fastest way was to ask Yun Fuyu directly.
If you can accept it, do as above; if you can't accept it, skip it.
But why didn't Adrian ask it himself?
Ji Xuanming suddenly realized that something was wrong.
"Are you guys a couple?"
Adrian: “…”
Adrien gripped the cup tightly.
Not getting an answer, Ji Xuanming went back to continue searching, "How to become a couple."
The first step is to confess and express your love.
Ji Xuanming's death question: "Have you ever confessed your love to Yun Fuyu?"
Adrian: “…”
The dark look on Adrian's face grew heavier, the veins on the back of his hand gripping the glass bulged, and he was squeezing so hard that his knuckles turned white.
Just when everyone thought the cup was about to explode, Adrien took a deep breath, placed the cup on the table with a crisp "click", and quickly replied:
"No."
Ji Xuanming frowned and looked at Adrian.
"ah?"
It's written on his face - why didn't you say so earlier?
Fortunately, it was Ji Xuanming, who was not afraid of fighting and did not like to look at other people's faces.
If it were someone else, they would have already started trying to find a way out for Adrian.
Adrien stood up quickly.
"I'll go talk to her now."
Lancelot quickly stopped him: "Wait a minute——"
Adrian left as soon as he said he would, and at a very fast speed, he strode out of the lounge and went upstairs in a few seconds.
Lancelot had a question mark on his face and did not continue to chase.
Adrian had long legs, so he took two steps at a time and climbed several steps. His steps became faster and faster, as if he was in a hurry to explain something.
But when he reached the third floor, Adrian's steps began to lighten unconsciously.
There was a carpet on the floor, but he still subconsciously concealed his footsteps.
...As if he was afraid of being noticed by Yun Fuyu's keen perception, and also afraid that his hurried steps would reveal something out of his control.
So, I walked lighter and slower.
When he actually reached the fifth floor, Adrien stood at the end of the corridor.
Scarlet carpet, soft and bright lights.
The second room on the right on the top floor...is Yun Fuyu's room.
The door of the room is a dark wooden door, no different from the doors of other guest rooms in the club.
But because of the people who temporarily live in it, this door has become like a passage - a passage connecting the boring and dull real space to another strange but exciting space.
Everything inside the door is different.
There was a cloakroom full of clothes, and each piece of clothing was much smaller than Adrian's clothes, especially the mannequin with Yun Fu Yu's military uniform hanging on it, which looked like some kind of toy that could be picked up with one hand.
During his last visit, Adrian had secretly tucked up the edge of one of the pajamas.
The plush material is incredibly soft.
No one else would wear pajamas like these.
The living room is not very big, but it is filled with many green plants - green plants that do not match the overall style of the club.
Because some people like them, we put more of them in the hall.
Adrian has good eyesight and instant memory.
He had been to Yun Fuyu's room several times, and just with a glance, he remembered many details clearly.
For example, there is a blanket draped over the back of the armchair in the study, and paper materials and heavy books stacked up according to the owner's habits.
After looking up the information, Yun Fuyu would put the things back on the table neatly and rearrange them.
There will be some stuffed pillows on the sofa.
There is a small wrinkle in the middle of the bed in the bedroom after sleeping.
Maybe Yun Fuyu really doesn't move around when he sleeps alone, just as he said.
And the most obvious difference.
