Nanzhi's back ached from the impact, and she felt a tightness in her throat.
Moonlight streamed in through the window, and Nanzhi watched as the murderous intent surged in Mu Yao's eyes, eventually subsiding.
He slowly released her.
"Why is it you?"
Nanzhi sat up, rubbing her neck and breathing heavily.
She instinctively wanted to use hand gestures, but realizing he wouldn't understand, she simply pulled his hand over and wrote on it.
I'm worried you'll attract coldness.
There has been some progress; he can now write the character "担" (dān). In one sentence, he only made one mistake.
Anyone who dared to get close to him would have died a hundred times over, let alone hold his hand.
Mu Yao didn't know why he could tolerate her repeated offenses.
I saw you get up barefoot, your eyes bright and alert, and walk past me.
But I just couldn't fall asleep.
He goes back, and you love him so much?
Nanzhi heard the sound and thought you had woken up.
Hearing Mu Yao agree, Nan Zhi's eyes crinkled with joy.
[But the bed board is too stiff, so Jiang Jun should go back to the room to get water, and I'll get water on the floor.]
Back in their room, he slept on the bed, and she slept on the floor.
It would have been quite a mistake to walk quietly with the general like that.
The bed curtains were plain, with only some intricate cloud patterns underneath. Through the curtains, I saw your hazy sleeping face.
What's even more torturous is that I can actually tell which piece of clothing you're taking off.
Seeing the tear tracks on your face, Nanzhi's heart trembled for some reason.
"Mother."
You look so peaceful when you're asleep, but your brow is always furrowed. Do you really have no worries at all, that you've even forgotten about them while you sleep?
Then, you suddenly stopped right next to me.
But the road never ends.
Zhi Na wasn't born mute. She had a serious illness when she was about one year old. Because she was a boy, her family didn't provide timely medical treatment, and she didn't develop any voices before she recovered.

003: *sobs*
Author: Sob, they've all left, you're so pitiful, crying a little.
I got up and went to the next room, where I rinsed myself with hot water over and over again to suppress the strange feeling.
My emotions are simple; I close my eyes and try my best to clear my mind.
Even though I didn't want to look at you, my eyes unconsciously drifted towards you.
Mu Yao was still fast asleep when he heard the sound and was startled. He opened his eyes and sat up abruptly.
[Ding, Nan Zhi's dislike level has increased by 20%.]
I lay down on the newly damaged floorboards.
In a fit of rage, Father beat the big dog to death and then gave you a severe beating.
Mu Yao: "Single dogs who have been in relationships, get lost."
Nanzhi let you nestle in her arms, her eyes growing deeper and deeper.
When Nanzhi came back to change her clothes, Mu Yao was still curled up asleep under the bed.
Your brow furrowed again, a large, furrowed brow, as you slept in the corner, like a poor, abandoned big cat.
Nanzhi suddenly wanted to know what had happened beneath you, so she sent someone to investigate.
The wind blew my hair, and it got tangled in your fingers.
Is it locked? What if no one returns it?
Just as you were about to lie down, Nanzhi said, "He's going to sleep on the bed."
You slept in the woodshed, which was narrow and filled with firewood. You could only sleep in a spacious corner, cuddling the big dog you had picked up for warmth.
Mu Yao followed me out of the study.
Even though you grew up in such circumstances, you never completely lost your desire to live. Whenever you were short of time, you would sneak into the school to watch the teacher teach, and that's how you learned some characters in a daze...
Nanzhi:……
Nanzhi only realized after seeing it several times that you were calling for...
"It's made of pipe."
When you're sad, you always hug your big dog and call out "Mommy" loudly.
Nanzhi realized something and quickly looked away.
But when your younger brother came to snatch the big dog, you gave it to him. Then your brother told your father that you were bullying him by raising the big dog.
Nan Zhi's body stiffened, and she reached out to pull you away, but unexpectedly, you hugged me instead and snuggled closer to me.
Mu Yao reached out and subconsciously stroked the general's black hair again.
You smiled contentedly.
After checking out of the room, Zhi Na took some blankets from outside the closet and spread them on the floor.
Mu Yao looked at me as I turned to the side, facing inside, without looking at me, as if he was worried that it would be easier for me to take off my clothes later.
She has a strong sense of sacrifice.
When I finally received no response, your hot tears fell onto the ground beneath me.
Suddenly, I had a bad idea to keep walking up.
When you come here, even strangers love you more and think you're a disgrace. You're just a kid, and all my siblings and I love playing and eating snacks, but you're the only one who does all the work and gets scolded every day.
It was not difficult to investigate; the people above found out what had happened to Mu Yao and the ten teenagers under his body in just one day.
Nanzhi, however, was about to say it for the seventh time, grabbing your arm like an eagle snatching a chicken, and pulling you to sit on the edge of the bed.
A moment ago, the boy suddenly turned over, his large, jade-white hand emerging from under the covers, his face turned towards me. You kicked the blanket a little, revealing his long, slender, fair neck and his well-defined collarbone...
Since then, you have become more sensitive, more obedient, and have even developed dissociative identity disorder, often sleepwalking.
Mu Yao thought that after saying that, she would know to leave, but to his surprise, she wrote in his palm again.
Mu Yao was about to refuse, but then he remembered how Madam Mu was always urging him, which annoyed him, so he agreed.
A soft, big bundle in my arms, like a cat.
I watched you walk strangely to the table, pour yourself a glass of water, drink it, and then walk back.
