Chapter 2096 Cross-Time Romance 39
Having lived for millions of years, this was the first time Si Jin had so openly and helplessly shown her weakness.
He didn't know what was wrong with him.
Back then, when he first led the heavenly army to fight against the demons, he was covered in wounds, some of which were even deep in his bone marrow and are still hard to erase to this day, but he didn't shed a tear.
He was manipulated by the Heavenly Lord and perished together with him. His soul was torn to pieces, but he didn't shed a tear.
He didn't shed a tear for five hundred years in the Heavenly Prison, nor for the hardships of more than forty planes.
But now, they were utterly defeated by a seemingly inexplicable kiss from Xiao Ayuan, and surrendered without resistance.
He wouldn't let Du Linyuan let go, so Du Linyuan said, "Okay."
He answered crisply, without asking a single unnecessary question.
She simply warmed his feet, gently placed them under the covers, and then hugged him from behind, letting him lean on her shoulder, holding him tightly.
She took his hands in her own, caressing them gently, unwilling to let go for even a moment.
But Jinjin cried; Jinjin was shedding tears.
what to do?
The young emperor had been on the throne for many years and had never encountered such a bewildering situation.
Even when he was twelve years old, when a powerful minister rebelled and besieged the capital, he was able to calmly lead his troops to fight back, killing people until heads rolled and blood flowed everywhere, without ever blinking an eye.
But now, she was so panicked that she couldn't even breathe steadily, her hands were trembling slightly, her heart was clenching, and she felt so uncomfortable all over.
His pride.
I can't let go, and I can't wipe away my tears. What should I do?
A moment later, Du Linyuan lowered his head and gently kissed the corner of Si Jin's eye, using light kisses to soothe his burning tears.
This wasn't the first time he had kissed Jinjin's tears like this, but it was the first time he had felt such bitterness. Yet, even though it was bitter, he wouldn't stop.
He would do everything he could to give Jinjin the best.
Time seemed to be tied to a thin thread, gradually stretching into evening.
There was a knock on the door. Si Jin was leaning against his chest, seemingly deep in thought about something extremely important, and didn't even notice him for a moment.
This at least relieved Du Linyuan. He knew Liu Gonggong's habit: after knocking on the door three times, he would wait outside.
So he shifted his body slightly, creating a small distance between himself and Si Jin: "Baby, aren't you supposed to wear a talisman?"
Si Jin didn't speak, just looked at him quietly.
Du Linyuan leaned in and kissed him, trying to put on a gentle smile: "I'll get it for you, you pick the prettiest one, okay?"
Si Jin nodded, and Du Linyuan got up with peace of mind.
But as soon as he stood up, he found that Jinjin was holding his clothes in her hand. Under the moonlight, the god's hand was trembling slightly.
It was as if she was afraid that she was lying to him, afraid that if she left, she would run away and never come back.
Du Linyuan felt a sharp pang of sadness, but finally, he turned around, took Si Jin's hand, and leaned down to kiss his eyes.
Jinjin liked his gentle kisses, and he knew it.
"I'm going to get the amulet, but I won't leave. Just silently count to five in your mind, and I'll be back, okay?"
Si Jin pondered for a moment, then nodded, loosened his clothes, huddled at the foot of the bed, and began to recite silently.
Du Linyuan hurriedly went out, and as soon as he opened the door, he lowered his voice and said, "Feng Buli's execution must be carried out in accordance with the law, as a warning to others, and there must be no mistakes."
"Tomorrow's morning court session is canceled. You are in charge of all the memorials and must deliver them to your bedchamber."
"Furthermore, I will not be returning tonight. Have all the guards withdraw. Anyone who dares to linger will be executed immediately."
The emperor delivered his speech, his words fierce yet his voice was extremely low, and even the closing of the door was done with the utmost gentleness.
In fact, having the emperor protected by secret guards three miles away was the basic bottom line of the Jiyue Dynasty. Throughout history, no emperor had ever dismissed his secret guards and abandoned his own safety like he had.
Ke Jinjin seems to be very sensitive to the secret guards. If he is uncomfortable, Du Linyuan will give up anything.
After taking the amulet, Du Linyuan quickly returned to the house, placed it in front of Si Jin, and pulled her into his arms.
When they got very close, they heard Si Jin lower her head and murmur softly, "0.000003".
Having lived for so long, Du Linyuan had at least learned a bit about modern things. He couldn't help but chuckle and whispered in Si Jin's ear, "I told you to count to five. Who starts counting from zero point zero zero?"
Si Jin's long eyelashes fluttered slightly, her thoughts still heavy, but her voice was no longer as hoarse as before, and she had at least regained some of her liveliness.
She said to him, "That way, I can wait a little longer for you."
