Chapter 243: Using Green Tea to Defeat Green Tea, Falling in Love with the Warlord (22)
Lying in bed, Li Ziyan couldn't sleep as usual. Since Han Zhiyao went to the front line, he hasn't had a good sleep. Every day he curled up in the cold bed, curled up in the quilt, closing his eyes but unable to fall asleep for a long time.
Believing in Han Zhiyao is one thing, but worrying about Han Zhiyao is another. Even if Han Zhiyao has three heads and six arms and a brain made of iron, the care and worry in his heart will not be reduced in the slightest.
That was his lover, who was in the most dangerous place. How could he feel at ease?
Curled up in the quilt with his eyes closed, Li Ziyan hugged Han Zhiyao's pillow, absorbing the scent of Han Zhiyao that had completely dissipated from it, as if he was falling asleep while hugging Han Zhiyao.
The affairs of the Pear Garden were dealt with, and Li Ziyan had nothing to worry about anymore. He went to the newspaper office and bookstore every day to read some text books and periodicals, paying attention to the direction of public opinion to prevent some spies from using words to incite the people.
No matter how capable Han Zhiyao was, he couldn't possibly handle everything, especially since he was so busy with military duties that dealing with the remaining issues would require a great deal of time and energy. Li Ziyan wasn't the type to sit back and relax in troubled times. He was a Chinese, after all, and he had a deep affection for China. So even if this place differed from the real Chinese history, he wanted to contribute his own strength.
The owner of the newspaper was an old acquaintance of Li Ziyan and was a patriotic man. In addition, Han Zhiyao left a few guards for Li Ziyan before leaving, so it was not difficult for Li Ziyan to check the contents.
After looking through the recent submissions to the newspaper, Li Ziyan picked out a few of the more problematic ones and told the guards around him to pay attention to where these people were going. Then he sighed and took a sip of tea.
"Madam! Mr. Yan! The Marshal is back!"
"What?!" Li Ziyan heard the old butler's happy voice before he even finished his tea. He suddenly sat up from the stool and turned around. Everything seemed to slow down. He was wearing an iron-gray military uniform and had rain on his shoulders. For the first time, Li Ziyan knew what it meant to fall in love at first sight.
"Grandma," the old lady hurried out of the room when she heard her eldest grandson had returned. When she saw Han Zhiyao, she went to greet him, touching him up and down. Han Zhiyao let the old lady check him with a gentle expression. She looked up at Li Ziyan who was standing there in a daze, "Grandma, don't worry, everything is going well."
"Well, good, good boy." The old lady could see that Han Zhiyao was eager for Li Ziyan, and she didn't want to be a light bulb. She smiled and patted Han Zhiyao's shoulder. "Go, have a private talk with Ziyan. Ziyan has been worried about you these days."
"Yeah, I know." Han Zhiyao helped the old lady sit down and walked step by step to Li Ziyan. He took off his gloves, his fingers were a little cold, raised his hand, and touched Li Ziyan's cheek, "Ziyan, I'm back."
Li Ziyan stood there in a daze, looking at Han Zhiyao's cheek and his facial features. Slowly, he felt that the scene in front of him was a little blurry. The next second, his cheeks were held up by two hands, and a light kiss fell on his lips.
"Don't cry, I'm back, I'm back." Han Zhiyao looked at Li Ziyan crying silently, feeling a little proud, but more of a pity and bitterness. He smiled, took Li Ziyan's wrist, rubbed his thumb twice, and looked at the old lady, "Grandma, I'll take Ziyan back to the room to rest first, and come to see you later."
"Well, go back." The old lady just smiled and nodded without saying anything. She looked at the backs of the two people with gentle eyes.
As soon as he entered the room, Han Zhiyao closed the door, picked up Li Ziyan and put him on the bed. He took off his coat and confined Li Ziyan in his arms and on the bed.
"Zi Yan, I'm back."
Li Ziyan bit his lower lip, raised his hand, hugged Han Zhiyao's neck, and buried his whole body in Han Zhiyao's arms, looking aggrieved, "Zhiyao, I miss you so much, I miss you so much..."
He has always been gentle, and even when it comes to feelings, he can control his inner excitement. Although he has been a little bit irritable and acted like a spoiled child with Han Zhiyao before, this is the first time he has taken the initiative like this.
Han Zhiyao's heart was filled with him, sweet and sour. He wished he could rub Li Ziyan into his bones and blood and never be separated from him.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. I promised to spend my whole life with you... Stop crying, I'm heartbroken..."
"Hmm..." Li Ziyan raised his head with a nasal tone, his eyes blurred with tears. His amorous eyes were now full of affection. He pursed his lips, used his arms to push Han Zhiyao down, and offered his lips.
Hunters will never let go of prey that comes to them actively. Every inch of it, from skin and flesh to bones and blood, will be enjoyed to the fullest.
The prey could only raise its slender neck and let out an unbearable groan, but the next second the hunter's canine teeth bit its most vulnerable white and tender neck flesh.
Whether it is hunting or enjoying, only the prey and the hunter can know the taste.
The two of them went into the house and chatted for the entire afternoon. The old lady glanced at the clock on the wall and raised her eyebrows, "Chunmei, go call the Marshal and Mr. Yan for dinner."
"yes."
Chunmei went upstairs as requested, and soon she heard footsteps, but only Han Zhiyao came down.
"Grandma, Ziyan can eat later. You and I will eat downstairs."
"Yeah." The old lady and Han Zhiyao sat at the dining table. After the dishes were served, they dismissed the attendants. "Why don't you take it easy? The child hasn't looked well these past few days. I just finished some papers this morning. How can you not be kind to him?"
"Grandma, I can't help myself. You know, a short separation is better than a new marriage, especially since we've just been apart for a short time and are now newly married."
"You are so good at talking, I don't know who you learned it from!" The old lady shook her head helplessly, but after all, the two children had a good relationship, so she could feel at ease.
Li Ziyan had his meal in the evening after all. When he came down, he changed into a long gown with a higher collar, but the red and purple marks on his neck were still visible. Fortunately, everyone in the Marshal's Mansion was very tight-lipped and would not say anything.
"Zi Yan, drink some soup, you look..."
"Madam! Marshal, Mr. Yan, there is a class outside the door. It is said that it is the Southern President's people." The old butler ran over in a hurry with a serious face.
Han Zhiyao also frowned. What was the purpose of the Southern President sending people here at this time?
"Let them in."
"yes."
Li Ziyan looked up at Han Zhiyao with a worried look on his face. Han Zhiyao shook his hand and said, "It's okay. I'm here."
"Um."
The group came in quickly, all dressed in casual clothes, black suits and hats. Their attire was neither eye-catching nor low-key.
"Marshal Han, we've heard a lot about you. We are special envoys from the Southern Government. We apologize for disturbing you so late at night."
