The door moved slightly.
Beitang Linyuan immediately jumped down from the roof beam in a panic and blocked the door.
At the same time, he spoke up to stop them, saying, "I'll serve the prince; you all don't need to come in."
Ning Jue, standing outside the door, paused for a moment, recognizing the voice of the newly arrived bodyguard. He gave a few instructions, nodded, and walked away.
At this moment, Beitang Linyuan breathed a sigh of relief. When he turned around, he saw Si Jin leaning against the edge of the hot spring.
His dark hair was damp, and his eyelashes were wet with moisture.
It looked as if it had just been crying, making it exceptionally easy to bully.
Beitang Linyuan stared into those eyes, and for some reason, he was stunned.
—Wow, it's so beautiful! I never knew that people with peach blossom eyes could actually have reddish corners. This is the first time I've ever seen it.
"What are you staring at?" Si Jin beckoned to him, her face remaining calm and composed. "Didn't I tell you to undress?"
Beitang Linyuan then realized what was happening and walked over in a daze.
Reaching out, her fingertips lightly brushed against Si Jin's sash, only to find it exceptionally hot.
It was even worse than when I was ten years old and survived the massacre of my entire family, when I had a high fever.
Beitang Linyuan's heartbeat gradually quickened, and his breathing became erratic.
I don't know if it's because of Si Jin, or because of myself.
Before they knew it, all their inner garments had been removed.
Several scars across his chest came into Beitang Linyuan's view.
The scars were messy and the stitches were very unsightly, clearly indicating that they were hastily treated on the battlefield.
It's like a series of patches that make up this person, riddled with holes.
For some reason, Beitang Linyuan's breath hitched, and he felt a sharp pang of heartache.
He reached out and unconsciously touched the most prominent scar near his heart.
She murmured, "Does it hurt?"
Si Jin shook his head: "I'm a military officer, I'm used to it."
These words pierced Beitang Linyuan's heart, almost bringing tears to his eyes. He then asked, "How were you injured..."
"How else could he have been injured? Fighting for his country and defending its territory."
"You're so concerned about my scar?"
At this point, Si Jin reached out, pulled a strand of the man's long hair, placed it between her fingers, and played with it carefully.
Suddenly, he asked, "Want a kiss?"
Beitang Linyuan was taken aback, and his face suddenly turned extremely red.
Over the years, all he wanted was to find Ning Sijin, who had destroyed his Beitang family, and take revenge.
I think about it every day, I long for it, and I wish I could get rid of it as soon as possible.
Asking him to kiss an enemy now, isn't that... absurd?
Beitang Linyuan moved slightly, entered the hot spring, and cautiously approached Sijin.
She lowered her head and kissed his scar.
Oh well, let it be absurd.
He's carried the hatred of the Beitang family all his life, and this time, he wants to follow his heart.
Beitang Linyuan's kiss gradually moved upwards, and soon he captured Sijin's lips.
"Hmm..."
Si Jin's timely muffled groan further extinguished his reason.
Beitang Linyuan pulled Si Jin into his arms and ruthlessly stole his breath.
After a long while, they finally released the person.
She couldn't help but kiss the boy's tearful eyes again.
what to do?
How could someone make you want to protect them at first sight?
You've already kissed him, and even made him cry. How could you possibly hurt him?
"Your Highness..." Beitang Linyuan leaned close to Si Jin's ear, and asked in a hoarse voice after making a great effort, "Nine years ago, on the Mid-Autumn Festival, what were you doing?"
Si Jin thought for a moment and replied, "While chasing a group of spies in the army, I came to the home of Beitang Yi, the leader of various martial arts alliances. I originally wanted to ask him for help, but I found that the Beitang family was gone."
"I tried to find out the truth, but I was stabbed through the chest with a sword and almost died with the Beitang family."
"Later, Ning Jue rescued me and took me back. Those spies and the thieves who destroyed the Beitang family could never be found again."
"Then, because of the accusation by Nangong Liuer's father, Prime Minister Nangong, I became the scapegoat in this case and served two years in prison before being barely released due to the war's shortage of generals..."
