The Emperor looked at her greasy little mouth lovingly, but he didn't eat anything himself.
He just smiled and shook his head: "No, Shu'er, have you forgotten that we packed the bags at Tianxiang Tower yesterday?"
"Oh, oh, oh, I see." Li Shushu suddenly realized, "If I had known this, I should have ordered more yesterday. I don't know how long I'll have to stay in this cave. It's all the fault of that nosy waiter. He has money but doesn't make any money. How stupid!"
Ao Yan shook his head again, "No need, we can go back after Shu'er finishes eating."
Li Shushu's mouth, which was full of food, froze. "Really?"
Last night, he was like a dying man, which scared her so much that she didn't know how many golden beans she dropped.
You can move freely again so soon today?
Ao Yan stood up and stretched his arms and legs, as if he really didn't feel any discomfort. "Well, it should be fine. Even if I can't say I'm fully recovered, I shouldn't have any problems getting home."
The word "home" seemed to have never appeared in his mouth. After he said it, he couldn't help but be stunned.
In the past, there was only Songlinyuan.
"It's strange to say, I recovered really quickly from this injury. I wonder what kind of medicine Shu'er used to heal me?" Perhaps the other party didn't hear it at all, but he still tried to change the subject.
Li Shushu thought: Maybe it was the effect of the recovery pill.
That thing should have a good effect.
He also used two at a time, so his recovery was extra fast?
However, she couldn't say it directly, so she just laughed it off and said, "I didn't use anything. I just scrubbed you with hot spring water, picked some herbs, crushed them, and applied them to the wound.
Maybe it was a lucky coincidence."
"Oh? Really?" The Emperor was certainly not so easily fooled...
"Oh, forget it, forget it. When I was a kid, I was often injured while traveling around the martial arts world. I happened to meet a miracle doctor who gave me some pills, saying they were very effective in healing wounds, so I kept them.
Later, in the Bi Yue Sect, I didn’t have many opportunities to use it, but I didn’t expect it to come in handy yesterday.”
The Emperor nodded in understanding, but didn't intend to ask any further questions.
After packing up, the Emperor embraced her and quickly headed towards the top of the mountain again...
When he returned to the top of the mountain again, the Emperor was actually slightly out of breath, and there were fine beads of sweat on his forehead. This was not like his usual self.
Li Shushu wiped the sweat off his face and asked with concern, "Emperor, how are you feeling? Is your wound opening again?"
Ao Yan shook his head. "It's okay. Just recuperate for a while."
I was seriously injured yesterday, and a lot of my internal energy and spiritual power leaked out. I'm afraid it will take some time to recover.
A few days later, on a full moon night.
The Emperor called Li Shushu to his side mysteriously and took out an item that he had kept in the bottom of his box for several days - the wedding suit.
"Shu'er, shall we get married?" He knelt on one knee, imitating the etiquette of the mortal world.
Li Shushu was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth. A layer of mist instantly appeared in his eyes and he froze in place for a moment.
She never dared to hope for this day, and yet, it came so quickly and so suddenly.
Seeing that she didn't respond, Ao Yan became anxious for a moment: "Shu'er, don't be angry.
Maybe I was too abrupt.
Mainly..., last time..., we were already husband and wife, and I wanted to give you a legitimate status as soon as possible, so that you could feel at ease...
Although there is no matchmaking now, it is really unfair to you.
But don't worry, I will report to the Emperor of Heaven as soon as possible, obtain his consent as soon as possible, and then marry you in a formal ceremony and give you a grand wedding..."
"No," Li Shushu shook her head. "Shu'er didn't mean that. I don't feel wronged. It's just... Your Majesty, are you sure you really want to marry me, and not just out of a sense of responsibility?"
“If you are doing this out of responsibility, then I won’t marry you.
You can pretend that nothing happened that night. I won't blame you if things get urgent."
"You are a god in heaven, and I am just a mere mortal. I know I am not worthy of you. You really don't need to be like this..."
Li Shushu tried his best to suppress his inner ecstasy, but he was also very nervous.
She thought, perhaps, now was the opportunity for the Emperor to see clearly what was in his heart, and also her opportunity to see clearly.
Her question really stumped Ao Yan.
To be honest, before that, he just felt that she was not annoying, and he felt comfortable getting along with her and did not repel her.
Later, because of those encounters in dreams, he had some different feelings towards her, but at that time, he could still avoid it as if nothing had happened. After all, they were just absurd dreams and he did not need to take any responsibility.
Besides, she might not even know those dreams existed.
But later...
Ever since I saw her in danger at the rubble pit, my heart has been in a knot.
Later, after having such in-depth contact, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
In fact, no one had ever entered his heart before.
From that moment on, he had already tacitly accepted in his heart that she was his only woman, his future wife.
But I never thought about the reason behind this acquiescence. Was it out of responsibility? Guilt? Or...
Out of...love?
At the beginning, he was indeed full of guilt towards her, but he undoubtedly wanted to take responsibility.
But what happened later?
He found that since she came to the top of the mountain, his world seemed to have become different.
It is no longer the unchanging white that lasts for thousands of years, no longer so quiet that only the sound of falling snow can be heard, and no longer frozen like an ice cave all year round.
On the top of Mount Buzhou, there are finally laughter, colors, smells, the fragrance of flowers, warmth, and the smell of fireworks.
Every day his eyes and thoughts would involuntarily follow her.
Even later, when they slept in the same bed, every time he smelled her faint body fragrance, he would feel that life was so beautiful, he could truly feel his own heartbeat, and he would fall asleep faster and sleep more soundly.
He had to admit that he had become addicted to this beauty, this warmth, and even her body, which made him extremely greedy and unforgettable.
From then on, he just wanted to sleep on the same bed with her legitimately.
He no longer wanted to sleep alone on a lounge chair in the snow in the yard.
He recalled the excitement and anticipation that flashed through his heart when he purchased wedding dresses, candles and other wedding supplies in Yunmeng Town.
How could it be purely for responsibility?
It is also his responsibility to protect the safety of the heaven, but he doesn't feel very happy or expectant?
In an instant, it was as if the Buddha's light hit his head. Once he figured out the problem he had never thought about before, it suddenly became clear to him.
He couldn't help but curl his lips, his heart was beating fast, and tears welled up in his eyes. "Of course, it's because I like Shu'er that I want to marry you."
