Chapter 141 Back
The thunder stopped and the rain gradually subsided.
However, it was already evening, and we had to leave the inner area of the White Moon Forest as soon as possible. After all, the inner area of the White Moon Forest was more dangerous at night.
"Dry the clothes before going back." Lin Yu grabbed her hand and spoke softly.
Jiang Mian turned around and looked at him, and was about to say that it was no big deal that his clothes were just a little damp, and he could take a shower when he got home, so he shouldn't delay going out.
But before she could speak, Lin Yu seemed to have guessed what she was worried about, and said in a very calm voice: "We can leave here before dark."
His voice was inexplicably convincing, his gaze calm.
"Okay." Jiang Mian nodded.
So next to the Black River, Lin Yu took out the dryer and continued to carefully help Jiang Mian dry her clothes. Jiang Mian sat on a small stool, covered with Lin Yu's black coat, and she was still wearing one of Lin Yu's loose T-shirt underneath.
She supported her legs with her elbows and held her chin with her palms. Her pure and beautiful face was extremely rosy and charming at this moment, with a lazy feeling as if she had eaten a full meal. Her lips were also very red, but this face was covered by a mask.
Jiang Mian just lowered his eyes and watched Lin Yu drying his shirt.
She looked at his calm expression, blinked lightly, and took out the two small wrinkled and wet clothes that had been placed in the hub space. Her voice was soft and raised slightly, "Linyu, let's dry these two as well."
Lin Yu took it subconsciously, and when his eyes fell on the two small pieces of pure white and elegant wrinkled clothes, he realized what Jiang Mian had handed him. For a moment, his heart suddenly tightened, and his slender fingers, which had turned red and had not yet returned to their original skin color, suddenly held the two small clothes tightly.
The little clothes were wet, but not like they were wet from rain.
"This piece of clothing needs to be washed before it can be dried." Lin Yu's voice was slightly hoarse, and even the fingers holding the two small pieces of clothing were numb, and his ears turned red. "I'll put it away for you."
He said as he put the two small pieces of clothing into his hub space.
Those two small pieces of clothing were naturally nothing but Jiang Mian’s underwear.
Jiang Mian saw his red ears and her eyebrows curved slightly, feeling a little happy that a little prank had succeeded. She gently wrapped her slender fingers around his ears and said nonchalantly, "Ah, Master Lin, do you want to help me wash my underwear?"
The ears, which were already a little hot, seemed to become even redder and hotter after being wrapped in Jiang Mian's hands.
"Well, I'll wash it when I get home." Lin Yu's palm simply covered Jiang Mian's hand that was cupping her ear, and pulled her hand down from her ear. With the other hand, he picked up the dried clothes and looked down at her. "It's done, put them on."
Jiang Mian stood up and was about to take the clothes and put them on, but Lin Yu took away the coat she was wearing, draped the dried clothes behind her, reached out and grabbed her arm, and helped her put on the clothes step by step!
Jiang Mian wanted to take the clothes but couldn't reach out her hand. She could only stare blankly and let Lin Yu help her put on the clothes.
Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, just because she remembered the scene when Lin Yu helped her put on clothes when she was a child. She said she could do it, but the other party just frowned slightly, and without saying anything, he started to force her to put on clothes.
At that time, little Jiang Mian's parents had just been killed by orcs. Even though Lin Yu saved her, he was also an orc. She was wary, afraid and cautious of him, like a reserved and defensive little beast.
Her clothes were worn crookedly, and Lord Rin couldn't stand it, so he forced her to put them on straight.
Lin Yu doesn't know how to raise a child.
Jiang Mian chuckled for some reason.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yu zipped up her coat, adjusted her collar with his fingers, looked down at her, and asked softly.
"Nothing." Jiang Mian just shook his head slightly.
The temperament of Lord Rin at this time is quite different from that of Lord Rin later on.
Lin Yu didn't ask any more questions, but squatted in front of her with his back to her: "Come up, I'll carry you back."
Jiang Mian didn't waste any time and lay on Lin Yu's back.
Soon, Lin Yu carried her on his back and moved quickly. The speed and distance of such a leap were completely beyond the reach of a human being, and he was not a human being.
"Lin Yu, do you like children?" Jiang Mian asked silently while still thinking about his childhood memories.
Although he likes children, he will not raise her child in the future at all. He always has a cold face, as if he is going to eat the child in the next second.
He said he didn't like children, but he rescued the little girl, took her home, and raised her personally.
Lin Yu paused slightly when he heard this. The child he was thinking of was naturally different from the child Jiang Mian was talking about. He naturally didn't like children, not any children.
But when Jiang Mian said this, he should be referring to their baby.
Even so, he doesn't like children. He only wants Jiang Mian, not any other children.
But he knew he couldn't say that.
"I like it." Lin Yu said softly while hurried on his way.
Actually, I don’t like it.
"Really?" Jiang Mian was surprised. "You don't look like you like children."
Lin Yu just pursed his lips, his narrow and cold red eyes were calm: "I like everything you like."
You like it and I don’t like it either.
I don't want a child to take away your attention.
It’s especially good not to have children.
Jiang Mian realized instantly that Lin Yu had misunderstood. She asked him if he liked children, not if he wanted to have one.
She currently has no plans to have children, so she drinks the potion she mixes every day. There is no harm in it, except that she won't get pregnant.
Besides, this era is not suitable for giving birth to orc babies.
Jiang Mian doesn't want to go to jail yet.
"I'm not asking whether you want to have a baby or not. What I'm asking is..." Jiang Mian felt that he couldn't explain himself clearly, so he simply stopped asking.
She will probably never know the original intention of Lord Rin to rescue her and take her back to raise her.
Lin Yu heard her stop talking, and when he heard her say that she didn't mean to ask him whether he wanted to have children, his thoughts turned and he spoke again: "I have never liked children."
Jiang Mian paused, but she didn't expect him to answer. Perhaps he understood what she really meant.
So he didn't like children, but he still saved a child.
Jiang Mian shook his head, feeling that there was no need to think about these things anymore.
Soon, the two people left the White Moon Forest.
After reaching the outskirts, Lin Yu drove the hover car back to Baicheng with Jiang Mian.
Jiang Mian casually looked out the window of the floating car, and seemed to see scattered strange beasts appearing in a desolate area in the distance. Although the number was still small, it was much more than what Jiang Mian had seen before.
