Chapter 218 Because of Him, I Was Willing to Indulge
The two chatted and laughed for a while, then fatigue set in, and Li Bushang slowly closed his eyes.
Nan Yan watched him fall asleep, then turned over and faced the other side of the tent.
But she didn't feel tired at all.
I don’t know if it’s because of last night’s experience, but at this moment, everything in front of me was dark, and a feeling of unease slowly surged into my heart.
So much has happened in just one or two days.
But what made her most uneasy now was not the nightmarish memory, nor the fact that she was in the military camp with the Yue army lurking outside, but - Zhu Feng.
Whenever I think of him, my heart feels like it's being pricked by needles.
Why?
Why did he suddenly change his expression? Why did he suddenly hate himself so much?
It was clearly him who made the first move, who hugged and kissed her first, and who treated her with such passion first. Because he did this, because it was him, she was willing to indulge herself.
But why, when I was drowning, he pulled away?
Why……?
Nan Yan felt indescribably aggrieved and unwilling, but she had no way to go to him to ask for clarification. Even the medicine she had worked so hard to make was thrown away by him.
He even didn't want to see me.
Does he really hate himself so much?
“Why…why…?”
Nan Yan whispered softly, unable to stop a tear from sliding quietly down the corner of her eye.
She fell into a dream, and in the dream, she seemed to have returned to the time when the two of them first met. The handsome figure walked through the flames of Jiaotai Hall, strode in, and walked straight in front of her.
It seemed to have entered her heart.
That handsome, godlike face looked even more heroic in the flames.
And all around, there were not only flames, but also the sounds of countless people and horses charging and fighting.
The sound of charging...
Nan Yan couldn't help but frown. Why were these sounds getting closer and louder, as if—
It’s true!
She suddenly opened her eyes.
There really was a huge sound coming from a distance, and the tent seemed to be shaking slightly!
What’s going on!?
Nan Yan suddenly sat up from the bed. When she turned her head, she saw Li Bushang on the other bed also jumped up suddenly. He was even more alert than her. His wolf-like eyes were wide open, staring at the door in the dark.
Almost instantly, they heard the sound outside clearly. It was the sound of horse hooves. Countless horse hooves shattered the silence of the night, galloping from far away. In the sound of the wind, it seemed that countless people were shouting loudly.
Is this - is there a war?
This thought flashed through Nan Yan's mind, and she shuddered all over and immediately got out of bed. On the other side, Li Bushan had already jumped off the bed, rushed to her bedside barefoot, and hugged her with his arms open.
Nan Yan looked at him with eyes wide open in shock: "You, Li Bu Shang?"
Li Bushang said: "Don't be afraid, I will protect you."
"What's going on?"
"It's a sneak attack! Someone is coming to attack!"
"A sneak attack?!"
Nan Yan's face turned pale. She was just a girl and knew nothing about military affairs, but she was very clear about the meaning of sneak attack. The whistling sounds of horses' hooves and the roars of people outside, could they be the soldiers of Yue rushing in?
A light suddenly flashed in her mind -
Zhu Feng!
If the Yue army launches a surprise attack, will he be safe?
