Chapter 1022 Heart Sound
Nan Yan was a little stunned for a moment.
But she couldn't help but follow him out.
And those people around them, who were originally ferocious and waving swords to rush up and kill them, did not dare to move at this time, let alone catch up.
I could only watch them walk out of the quiet courtyard and disappear at the end of the path.
After an unknown amount of time, someone asked in shock, "Boss, what should we do?"
"……Well?"
"Should we catch up?"
The leader suddenly came to his senses and looked at the ground. Several people were already dead, and some were seriously injured and lying bleeding. The remaining few who were still standing were also injured.
The man had been fighting with them until now without a single injury on his body. They thought that the weakness he suddenly revealed just now gave them an opportunity to take advantage of him, but they did not expect that the woman would rush up again, adding a touch of brutality to his ferocity.
If we chase after him like this, wouldn't that be suicide?
He thought for a moment and said, "Go back immediately and report to His Royal Highness Prince Ning!"
The rest of the people heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this.
They were also very clear about the difference in strength between the two sides. It was impossible for them to take down the man with just a few of them. At this time, it was right to go back and report the news.
So, they packed up a little, took the injured person with them, and left in a hurry.
Nan Yan followed Zhu Feng all the way forward. She was too weak to walk too far. In fact, after walking for a while, Zhu Feng almost lifted her up with one arm.
At this time, he didn't care about the "no physical contact between men and women" rule, or anything else, and he casually hugged a "stranger" woman.
Just now, when he heard those people calling him "Imperial Concubine", he felt like he had a splitting headache. She also vaguely guessed that something must have gone wrong in Zhu Feng's forgetfulness of his past.
He remembers Qin Ruolan.
But forget yourself.
Although this realization made her feel very uncomfortable and even a little angry, seeing how he had protected her just now, just like every time in the past, a contradictory feeling of joy came over her, colliding with the anger in her heart.
The complicated feelings made her unsure of how to face him.
That's all we can do, let's put it aside for now.
After leaving the small fishing village, the two walked for another half a day and finally saw a thatched pavilion on the side of the road where they could rest.
Zhu Feng knew that she was weak, so he took her inside and sat down.
As soon as she sat down, Nan Yan was panting so hard that her whole body went limp.
Zhu Feng hurriedly reached out and grabbed her arm.
"Are you okay?"
Nan Yan was really tired, especially since she had just been on the bench for two heroic times. At this moment, she almost didn't even have the strength to straighten her back.
But she still managed to shake her head at him.
fine.
Zhu Feng looked at her face which was covered in sweat, and the hair at her temples was soaked with sweat and stuck to her cheeks.
His heart inexplicably moved, and he couldn't help but reach out and push a strand of sweaty hair behind her ear.
“……!”
Nan Yan was stunned and looked up at him.
Zhu Feng's hand was still beside her ear, and the hot temperature of his palm almost ironed her skin through the air, and the feeling made her face blush.
Zhu Feng himself seemed to be scalded and immediately withdrew his hand.
Nan Yan looked at him again, but couldn't help but think in her heart: Can you be so close to a strange woman and get her so easily?
She felt unhappy and couldn't help showing this emotion on her face, turning her face to the side.
Zhu Feng was silent for a moment.
Even now, he has figured out some things, but he still doesn't fully understand the woman in front of him, but he doesn't seem to want to force her to ask anything.
So, he stepped aside and sat down.
Nan Yan sat there, sulking for a while, and felt a little confused.
He washes his hands to cook the soup, and it is clearly himself who drinks it; he is so close, and the one he is close to is also clearly himself.
It seems that there is really no reason to be angry with him at this time.
After thinking for a while, she raised her head and looked at him again: "Ah..."
Zhu Feng raised his head immediately after hearing her voice. Seeing her worried look, he knew what she was worried about and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, they won't catch up."
"ah?"
"By now, they must have gone back to report the news."
“…”
Nan Yan was quiet for a while, thought about it, took his hand, and wrote a few words on his palm -
Did you do this on purpose?
Zhu Feng's eyes flickered and he looked up at her.
I can't believe that this pale and thin little woman, who looks so weak, dared to fight in front of those ferocious men holding swords and looking fierce; and at this time, she could still see through my thoughts.
An indescribable soft feeling arose in his heart again.
But he didn't show much on his face, he just nodded calmly: "Yeah."
"ah……"
Nan Yan understood.
Before, she was a little puzzled. Since even the old boatman and the others left in order to avoid being implicated, why did Zhu Feng stay in that house with her? And from the look on his face, he knew those people would come to cause trouble, but he deliberately waited there.
Zhu Feng said calmly, "If we all leave like this, and those people come back and find those bodies, they will definitely cause trouble for the people in that village."
“…”
"According to their methods, I'm afraid everyone in the village will be imprisoned."
Nan Yan took a deep breath.
So, Zhu Feng took himself to stay there and confront those people. Of course, he was also very clear about his own strength and could leave.
If you leave in front of those people, they will not cause trouble to the villagers when they come back.
Nan Yan looked at him, and the expression in her eyes became gentle.
Although he looks cold, he is fierce and even brutal when he fights.
But he has a strange tenderness towards the common people.
She nodded at him, and the approval in her eyes seemed to be filled with a hint of tenderness.
Zhu Feng's heart skipped a beat when he saw her gaze.
Inevitably, I feel a little hot.
It seems that this is not the time to have wild thoughts. He knows very well what he should do. As for his children's love affairs, he should not make trouble for the time being.
So he coughed lightly and said, "When you've rested, we'll go to the market ahead to buy a horse."
Buy a horse?
Nan Yan was startled for a moment, raised her head and looked at him, wanting to ask something, but before she could write something on his palm, Zhu Feng seemed to have read her heart from her eyes——
Where are we going?
