Got what I wanted
"By the way, have you seen the jade pendant on me?" Su Manyan finally remembered that he had forgotten something very important.
Xiao Lin placed the back of his hand against her slightly cold forehead: "Don't worry, I've put everything away." After that, he took out the jade pendant from his pocket, which was exactly the same as the one he wore around his waist.
"Have you seen this jade pendant? So...what do you think?"
Su Manyan racked her brains but didn't know what to ask. However, seeing Xiao Lin so calm, she was still wondering if she had made a mistake and didn't feel comfortable asking any more questions.
Xiao Lin saw the wrinkled face of the person in front of him and burst out laughing. He himself was not in a hurry yet, but Ah Yan was more nervous than him.
He curled his index finger and scraped it across the tip of Su Manyan's nose, then replied lovingly, "You went through so much trouble to obtain this jade pendant, so I will naturally keep it well. As for this matter, I'm sorry, I don't understand it all yet. I'll tell you once I've investigated it thoroughly."
"Okay?"
Xiao Lin's palms wrapped around Su Manyan's hands that were exposed outside the quilt, and his fingers stroked over the wrist bones, the purple meridians on the back of the hands, and then to the slender fingers.
Inch by inch, the palms of the two people gradually overlapped and intertwined, fitting perfectly.
Su Manyan was frightened by this ambiguous action and subconsciously shrank back, but still did not pull his hand away.
She did not reject any of Xiao Lin's love confessions to her, but that didn't mean she could be so ignorant.
Su Manyan's heart hardened, and he took the initiative to pinch the other's fingertips and looked at him: "What do you mean?"
She was not a casual person. She believed that flirting was also a way to fall in love. If it was just flirting without responsibility, she would not accept it. These days, she also knew that her behavior with Xiao Lin was not innocent.
She didn't resist, she even enjoyed it.
That's because she likes Xiao Lin.
But after so many days, Xiao Lin didn't show any intention to go further, and she didn't want it to be just her wishful thinking.
"Hmm?" Xiao Lin didn't hear clearly and continued to play with Su Manyan's hand, or perhaps he didn't understand what Su Manyan meant.
Seeing that Su Manyan still had a blank expression, he thought she was angry that he had kept it a secret from her, and he immediately became anxious: "A Yan, I really don't know about this matter. I'll tell you everything I know now, okay?"
Su Manyan pushed him away angrily: "That's not what I meant." She didn't understand whether Xiao Lin was really stupid or just pretending to be stupid. He was usually more thoughtful than anyone else, so why was he so confused now?
Xiao Lin was startled after being kicked, and subconsciously tried to grab the other person's hand, but it provoked a stronger reaction from the other person: "Don't touch me!"
There was a hint of crying in her voice. She just felt a little wronged. She was weak to begin with, and her mind and body were both fragile. And this stupid piece of wood in front of her was making her angry.
Xiao Lin raised his hands, not daring to breathe, and said in a gentle voice that he would definitely not touch it, but he still did not leave, and persisted in asking: "A Yan, what's wrong? Tell me if you are unhappy about anything."
Su Manyan clasped her hands on the wooden carving at the headboard, turned her head away, speechless. How could she possibly say this? Their relationship was so close, and if she spoke rashly and the other party simply walked away without taking any responsibility, how embarrassing would that be for her?
She doesn't like being sentimental.
Her eyes were watery and her nose was red, as if she would cry any second.
Suddenly, Xiao Lin seemed to understand why Su Manyan was angry.
He forgot one very important thing.
——He hasn’t confessed his feelings to Su Manyan yet.
Memories of his past life suddenly flooded into his head like a tide, catching him off guard. He had been immersed in the hatred and joy of his past life for the past few days, bathed in the sorrow of Su Manyan's coma, and he realized that he was reborn and his past life memories were awakened.
He understood that he and Su Manyan were destined to be together, but he forgot that Su Manyan had not yet recovered her memory.
He brought the habits from his memory, the loving relationship he had with Su Manyan, into reality. Previously, the two of them had an ambiguous way of getting along, and every word they said was filled with intricate lingering affection. Naturally, their current behavior and words were even more excessive.
It was he who was at odds, he who lost his sense of proportion, and he brought Su Manyan into a romantic relationship, or rather, a loving relationship.
But he overlooked Su Manyan's feelings. He was inconsiderate and reckless.
Some love has been engraved into the bone marrow. Even if it is washed away by time and burned by wildfire, there will always be endless grasslands. The seeds that have taken root underground will break through and bloom into flowers all over the mountains even if they are not spoken out.
so……
Ayan, why bother?
Su Manyan saw that Xiao Lin had been silent for a while, so she moved her ears and heard the man chuckle, which passed through her eardrum. She couldn't help but feel nervous.
She heard the man sigh again: "Ayan, I'm sorry."
What are you sorry for? Does this mean you're rejecting her? Su Manyan's heart was sorely pressed for time, tears filling her eyes instantly.
Just as the big tears fell on her hands, she felt her hands being held up again. Xiao Lin held her left hand and stroked the side of his face. She even rubbed it against his palm like a spoiled child.
"I was inconsiderate and haven't told you my feelings yet."
Su Man's violent heartbeat was about to burst her eardrums. She saw Xiao Lin's mouth opening and closing, and the warmth from his palm made her stunned in place.
"Ayan, I like you."
This time, Su Manyan finally heard the words she had been waiting for for a long time.
These six words struck her soul directly. They were the only thing left in her mind. These six words became an impenetrable net that surrounded her.
Tonight, nothing but love.
Tears flowed down her face like a broken dam, her heart was filled with unbelievable joy and sadness, she didn't know where it came from.
Of course, joy outweighs sadness.
"Ayan, don't cry."
Looking at Su Manyan's reaction, Xiao Lin knew that the other party agreed.
He shouldn't have been worried or afraid. They had been in love with each other in their previous life, and they would get what they wanted in this life.
He gently hugged Su Manyan, letting her tears wet his shoulders.
Xiao Lin stroked Su Manyan's shoulders gently as if coaxing a child, and when he felt the strength of the hug on his waist and back, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He likes A Yan, and Su Manyan will also like him.
They were hugging each other tightly like this. Xiao Lin looked at the bronze mirror in front of him. Su Manyan's slender body was held in his arms. He could see the wolfish ambition in his eyes, but the movement of his hands showed cherishment.
The extreme contrast made Xiao Lin very comfortable.
"Look, Ayan, how well we match each other."
Xiao Lin leaned close to Su Manyan's red ear and whispered ambiguously.
There won't be any lovers in this world who are more compatible than them.
They both had bad endings in their previous lives, so they came for each other in this life.
Su Manyan was dizzy from crying and didn't hear clearly. She asked with a nasal voice, "Huh?"
"I like you." Xiao Lin pressed his lips against Su Manyan's forehead and confessed his love again.
Su Manyan's ears became hot after hearing this. She buried her face in Xiao Lin's arms, sniffing like a spoiled kitten.
After a long while, he replied softly, "Yeah."
She too.
She also likes Xiao Lin.
"The male protagonist's blackening value has dropped to 90%. Please continue to work hard."
This is the first decline since its last sudden rise to 99%.
Beauty can be misleading. Su Manyan then remembered Xiao Lin's sudden surge in blackness, but based on her observations over the past few days, she couldn't detect any change in Xiao Lin, or rather, he seemed to have become more calm.
Su Manyan didn't hesitate for too long, because her lips suddenly felt soft.
The kiss came suddenly. Xiao Lin couldn't help himself and loved her so much that he couldn't help but kiss her.
His lips first lightly touched Su Manyan's, like a feather brushing against her, and a tingling sensation instantly spread throughout Su Manyan's body. Then, seeing that Su Manyan was not disgusted, he wrapped his arms around Su Manyan's waist, deepening the kiss and rubbing his lips against Su Manyan's.
The house is filled with springtime...
Xiao Lin quickly got into the role of boyfriend, with almost no transition period, and he adapted immediately.
In daily life, Su Manyan is always moved and blushes.
Daily love words are never enough, and close intimate contact is also indispensable. As a wounded person, Su Manyan is even more cautious. He is afraid of breaking it if he holds it in his hands, and he is also afraid of holding it in his mouth.
She just lay in bed every day, and Xiao Lin personally took care of her feeding and taking her medicine. Even when she went for a walk to digest her food after a meal, Xiao Lin would stay with her closely and would not let Su Manyan disappear from his sight.
Yu Que and the others thought that their master might be sick. Any lady from a noble family would not be able to withstand such "surveillance". Only A Yan, as a eunuch, could tolerate Xiao Lin's "exploitation".
Working people still understand working people, and can even empathize with the grievances suffered by their colleagues and superiors in love.
But Su Manyan didn't have so many thoughts in her mind. She completely understood Xiao Lin's control over her. She knew that he was just worried about her. His last disappearance had left too many shadows on him. She had to accept and tolerate everything.
But there is still a dark corner in her heart, and she also needs Xiao Lin to tell her all her itinerary in detail, and she also wants to understand him completely.
Otherwise, they are a perfect match.
She also thought that there was no more perfect couple in the world than them.
only……
Su Manyan listened to the porcelain bowl still having medicine residue in it, and worried about the consequences of her secret of being a woman disguised as a man being exposed.
She clearly remembered 625's words about punishment if she was exposed, and she had been anxiously awaiting the announcement for the past few days. But ever since 625 had helped her in the well that day, he had vanished, just like last time, without a trace.
"What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"
Xiao Lin came into the room at some point, stood by the bed, leaned over, and looked at her gently with his beautiful eyes.
"No...it's okay, the medicine is just a little bitter." Su Manyan lied. The matter of traveling through the system was too weird, and she didn't know how to change her words. The ancients were much more pious and repulsive to strange things related to the supernatural. She was afraid of being treated as a monster and burned to death.
Xiao Lin listened to her crimson lips, as if he was bewitched, and could not help but move closer. Their high noses touched each other, and they could not help but blend their lips and teeth in a passionate and lingering manner.
After the kiss, the two separated breathlessly. Xiao Lin saw that Su Manyan's lips were covered with a layer of water, which made them look bright red. He leaned forward and pecked her lips lightly, muttering, "So beautiful."
Su Manyan rested his head on the man's chest, hearing the strong heartbeat, and felt extremely relieved.
Let’s talk about those bad things later.
