Chapter 64 Wolf
Wu Chun's ears were reddened, and he slapped Xie Sui's hand, "Stay away from me."
Xie Sui leaned back and responded lightly.
As the carriage was moving, the curtain was lifted by the wind from time to time, and the light and shadows were sparse, passing over Xie Sui's angular face.
Wu Chun and Xie Sui didn't say anything along the way. Xie Sui's eyebrows were cold, and Wu Chun thought he was calm inside, but he didn't know that Xie Sui's heart was like the waves on the sea, uncontrollable.
She didn't cherish the things of that young boy, which showed that she had no feelings for him. But the King of Southern Xinjiang sent this boy to her, clearly intending to bring them together. If this continued, would she be comfortable facing a person with whom she had no feelings every day?
But even so, he was not sure if he could make her happy. What if he couldn't make her happy?
He was unsure.

He didn't think he was inferior to that brat, but he was different from before. He might not have cared enough about her feelings before, but now he didn't. He just felt that he owed her a lot.
The border is a long way from the palace in southern Xinjiang. It can't be reached in just a few days. It will take at least a month. Xie Sui can't put down his official duties for so long. He had already made arrangements before he came, and asked Lord Jing, who played a key role in the palace coup, to temporarily handle some affairs. Since he had been friends with the Xie family for more than ten years, and had made many plans for Xie Sui, and was an upright person, Xie Sui temporarily made arrangements.
If it was an urgent matter, he would have someone write it on a piece of paper and send it by bird.
When they stopped to rest at night, they all stayed in the private room on the top floor of the guest house. Xie Sui naturally didn't share a room with Wu Chun.
Wu Chun was not sure what Xie Sui was thinking.
He wanted to escort her back, but he was lukewarm all the way.
She hated him being like this, so she hoped that he would either use coercion as before to make her give up on him, or say that he loved her and that she would give him a chance because he had saved her life and saved Southern Xinjiang in this life, and would make plans after observing him for a while.
But Xie Sui's attitude was very ambiguous.
She simply didn't have a good face and had a cold face all the way.
Xie Sui thought that he had offended this princess again. Every once in a while, when he passed by a pastry shop, he would stop the car and go down to buy snacks for Wu Chun in person.
Hot, wrapped in a thin layer of paper, sweet, and handed to her.
He was not a man who did not understand romance. Seeing that she was full, he went downstairs to buy tea. The next time, it would be some small things for her to pass the time.
Wu Chun accepted all of them. Xie
Sui saw that her eyes were light and she was silent, as if she was worried. He could not help but speak, "What's wrong?"
Wu Chun glanced at him and said coldly, "If someone does not want to take me back to the palace, they can get off the car. The delay is not too long now."
She was gloomy, but he knew she was angry as soon as he heard it.
Xie Sui paused for a moment, then stretched out his arms, grabbed Wu Chun's shoulders, and hugged her in his arms. Wu Chun was suddenly startled and uttered a cry. The tight and warm touch made his heart beat like rain, becoming more and more rapid.
"What are you doing!"
"Do you want me to treat you like this?" Xie Sui lowered his eyes and saw that her brows were furrowed, but it was only because of fear, not disgust, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Their breaths intertwined, like the lingering spring rain covering the pavilion in the distant mountains.
Wu Chun said bluntly: "If you like me, then stop pretending to be indifferent. If you don't like me, that's fine. I'm not the kind of person who would force you. Just get out of here now."
Not long after she finished speaking, Xie Sui lowered his head and kissed her, holding the back of her head. She felt the gentle, salty, and shallow touch. After a moment, he left her lips and said in a hoarse voice: "How about this?"
The shouts of the street shops, the noisy sound of the crowds, and the rolling sound of the wheels of the cars all dimmed like the receding tide, and the whole world was left with only the breath of Xie Sui.
She thought that it would be too easy for Xie Sui to think that he still had a chance, so she pushed him away without answering him.
Silence is more crazy than words.
At least Xie Sui felt that way.
At the critical moment, he couldn't figure out her feelings. What did she want? Did she want him to love her? But she hated him so much before, so much that she didn't want to look at him any more...
Wu Chun faced the curtain, lifted a small corner to look at the scenery outside, and naturally didn't notice that Xie Sui's eyes were dark and gloomy, and it took a long time to calm down.
She leaned against the window, gradually calmed her mind, and slowly fell asleep.
When she woke up again, she saw a paper lamp in the car. The light in the paper flickered, and it turned out to be a firefly. It was already late.
The person next to her was holding a book in the moonlight, and her eyelids slightly raised. "Eat something when you wake up."
There was a long wooden box on the table in front. When she opened it, the food inside was still hot.
Wu Chun heard that Xie Sui's tone was very calm, as if nothing had happened, so she lowered her head to eat. After eating, he sent her to the inn and did not come to see her again tonight.

After a few more days of rushing, at night, they passed through the wild mountains and ridges, where there were few people and the road was difficult to drive. When Wu Chun came, he walked for a long time in this area.
It is said that there are wild beasts in Meihua Mountain, and many folk ghost stories in southern Xinjiang are related to this mountain.

. Although Wuchun was afraid, there were so many people around her, and she couldn't be in trouble.
Just as she was thinking this, a creaking sound came from under the car, and the driver screamed and immediately stopped the horse. The group got off the car to check and lit a torch. It turned out that the wheel was stuck in the mud and hit the stone, breaking.
It has been raining a lot in southern Xinjiang these days, and the mountain road is indeed difficult to walk. Not far away, it is shrouded in misty mountain fog.
So they stopped to rest, and someone built a simple shed for Wuchun and Xie Sui and put two low chairs.
It was night in the deep mountains, and the servants did not dare to delay any longer. They tried to repair the car, but the wheel was badly damaged and could not be repaired for a long time. The car was scrapped, so Li Chang gave them his car and went to squeeze in with the other guards.
Li Chang looked at Xie Sui with resentment in his eyes.
Not long after getting on the car, they suddenly heard a wolf howling. Everyone became alert. Wu Chun's heart beat to her throat, and she gently tugged at the corner of Xie Sui's sleeve.
Xie Sui raised his hand and held Wu Chun in his arms. His wide sleeves fell to her waist, and he lifted the curtain and squinted at the depths of the woods.
Two green lights flashed.
Soon, a mighty and strong adult wolf slowly walked out of the woods, opened its mouth, and its teeth were sharp, and it faced Xie Sui fiercely and coldly.
Xie Sui chuckled, "The wolves here seem to be more fierce than those in Daning."
