Chapter 1749 At that time, they were in love
This time, there was a little sound in the room.
It was the sound of a door opening.
There was a creaking sound, and the door slowly opened. A figure was standing inside, but he did not come out. There was no light in the room, and even the moonlight outside could not illuminate him.
It feels like the whole person is condensed from the darkness of the night.
The shadow made a hoarse voice: "Who are you? Who are you looking for?"
A sneer appeared on the blind girl's face.
"Haha, do you think I can't hear you just because you're hoarse?"
“…”
"Unfortunately, even after all these years, I can still smell the blood on your body clearly."
“…”
"Because, that's my blood!"
“…”
"Jiang Qu, do you still want to hide?!"
This time, the other party did not speak, but instead let out a long sigh.
Then, the person in the room took a step forward, and the dark figure was exposed under the moonlight, illuminating the gloomy face.
It was Li Lai.
But at this moment, the sincere and cautious expression on his face disappeared completely, as if it had never appeared on this face, and was replaced by a coldness.
He looked at the blind girl in front of him with a flickering gaze.
After a long silence, he said, "Come in."
This time, his voice was completely different from the hoarse voice before. It had returned to its usual tone, but it was a little deeper.
There was even something that seemed gentle.
Chu Xin immediately sneered, and when he heard the sound of him stepping aside, he walked in.
She was completely unfamiliar with this room, and she couldn't explore it like she would any other unfamiliar room to find a place to sit. She just walked through the door, walked to both sides, and then stood there motionless.
I was also afraid of bumping into something that would reduce my momentum.
And she heard Li Lai busy for a while, and then there was a puff.
That was the sound of lighting a tinderbox.
He lit a candlestick, but no matter how orange and warm the candlelight was now, she couldn't see it, and just stared coldly in the direction of the sound.
The orange, warm light shone on her face, but because her eyes were empty, it made her look even more terrifying.
She sneered, "Do you still need a light?"
There was silence for a while on the other side, and then Li Lai was heard walking towards them.
She thought the other person was going to say something to her, but then she felt her hand being held by a warm hand and gently pulled forward.
Chu Xin's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
But she immediately shook off the hand, as if it was on fire: "You, what are you doing?!"
Li Lai's low voice rang out in the room——
"I want to pull you over to sit."
“…”
"You certainly can't see it."
These words were like a knife, piercing her heart, which had just been throbbing for a moment. Chu Xin felt as if her heartbeat was about to burst out of her chest. She gritted her teeth and grinned, "Yeah, of course I can't see it."
“…”
"Why can't I see it?"
“…”
"Because you dug out my eyes!"
“…”
"You poached her on our wedding night!"
Listening to her shrill voice, Li Lai's breath was very calm. After she finished speaking, he slowly said: "I know that you must come to me to ask for clarification after all these years, and I - also have a lot to say to you."
“…”
"But, can you please sit down first?"
This time, he reached out again, but as if afraid of startling Chu Xin, he didn't pull her hand again. Instead, he grabbed her sleeve and said, "I heard about you, too. I heard that you fainted in the snow and were rescued by them."
“…”
"Your health is also very poor."
“…”
"It must be tiring standing like this."
“…”
"Sit down first."
This time, when he pulled again, Chu Xin did not shake off his hand.
Because at this moment, the scene from more than ten years ago suddenly flashed before her dark eyes. She was covered with a red veil and could not see anything. She was pulled by the man in wedding clothes in front of her with red satin and walked into the bridal chamber.
That feeling is exactly the same as now.
At that time, they were obviously fine and clearly in love.
She even remembered the moment they sat by the bed in the bridal chamber, he lifted the veil with a weighing rod and looked at her with a smile, a look of longing, as if a long-cherished wish had been fulfilled.
How could all this become fake?
While she was distracted, she was pulled to the chair, her legs went limp, and she sat down.
As if sensing that his behavior was too weak and unwilling to appear weak in front of him, Chu Xin immediately put on a cold expression and said coldly, "Jiang Qu, what are you doing here in Shazhouwei, hiding your identity?"
“…”
"I clearly heard that you, Jiang Qu, have joined the Sand Bandits. You are one of them."
“…”
"What do you want to do now?"

The same dark sky, the same cold moonlight.
In the hot moon, the bandits were shouting loudly by the campfire, eating large pieces of sizzling barbecued meat, celebrating their great victory this time.
Especially the second in command, Hu Saihei.
He held a bowl-sized wine glass in his hand and shouted, "Drink up! Tonight, we won't leave until we're drunk!"
The bandits also laughed wildly: "Yes, we won't go home until we're drunk!"
Those bandits were not afraid of the cold. Even though it was still snowy and icy at this time, they all bared their chests and laughed wildly. The sweetness of the wine further stimulated their excitement, and there was joy in the crescent moon.
There was only one person standing aside in silence.
Dressed in white, she looked particularly extraordinary under the moonlight.
It was the military advisor Long Tingyun.
He was holding a folding fan in his hand, fanning away the sweaty and bad breath emanating from the bandits around him who were not frequent in bathing and even did not rinse their mouths, with a look of disgust on his face.
The younger brother beside Hu Saihei looked at him and whispered to him, "Second Master, look, you defeated the imperial army, everyone is celebrating, but that rat-faced guy looks unhappy, as if he's not happy about your achievement."
Hussehei looked back and his face darkened.
He sneered, walked over with a wine glass in hand, and put his arm around Long Tingyun's thin shoulders: "Come on, military advisor, let's have a drink!"
Long Tingyun was even more disgusted when he embraced him.
Said: "Second Master, I don't drink."
"This is a bandit den, not a school. How can we not drink?"
Long Tingyun said coldly, "Just drink it. I have something important to tell the boss."
"oh?"
As he spoke, he turned to Wu Lun, who was sitting directly above him, also enjoying the wine and meat, and said, "Boss, now that victory has been achieved, the Emperor and his men have fallen into our trap. Shouldn't we follow through on our previous agreement and release the men?"
