Chapter 387: The Closest and Most Distant Couple
The two of them turned and went to an empty courtyard where there was a pavilion, which was a great place to cool off.
At that time, the setting sun was shining brightly, and the autumn wind blew. The trees in the courtyard swayed, leaves fell, and the grass withered.
It's autumn again.
Yan Xingchuan felt that the sunset today was a bit dazzling and closed his eyes uncomfortably.
Someone brought tea and some food, then left.
Jiang Cinian looked at an evergreen tree beside the pavilion. Although it was autumn, the leaves were still green and lush, swaying in the autumn wind.
"I came to Yunzhou City earlier than her." Jiang Cinian spoke suddenly, seemingly casually, but also as if explaining that their meeting here was actually an accident.
"I know." Yan Xingchuan nodded.
He was just angry before, but when he calmed down he knew that they would not look for each other again. They were separated and that was it. Maybe they were sad at the time, but neither of them was the kind of person who would be entangled in lingering ties.
Even before the wedding day, they all stopped at the formalities. Since they couldn't move forward, they would step back, each returning to their own position, and be safe and at ease.
In fact, they are the same kind of people. They always know what to cherish most and let go decisively and calmly.
He is the one I can't let go of and am trying desperately to hold on to.
Yan Xingchuan wiped his face with his hand and felt like he didn't know how to face Jiang Cinian.
He made a mess between himself and Cui Si, which was ridiculous. He kept telling her to trust him, but he knew that she disliked Lin Qingning the most. Lin Qingning tried to snatch things that belonged to her again and again, and he couldn't do anything to Lin Qingning.
This is an unsolvable problem.
"How is she?" Yan Xingchuan asked after calming down. "I shouldn't have said something I shouldn't have said just now. I made her angry. Are she and the child okay?"
"She's in good health, and the baby is fine, but given her current health, she shouldn't take medicine if she can. I'll prescribe two medicinal dishes for her later."
"That's good." Yan Xingchuan breathed a sigh of relief. After a day of worrying about something, he finally felt half relieved. He also expressed his gratitude to Jiang Cinian for coming, "Thank you for coming today."
"I'm not doing this for you."
"I know."
The two of them could still sit together and drink tea, mostly because of the life-saving grace at Chongshan Pass. Jiang Cinian came today, firstly because he was a kind-hearted doctor, and secondly for Cui Si.
But the benefits he gained were real.
He said to Jiang Qinian, "I'll have to trouble you again for a while, Mr. Jiang. If Ah Si's delivery goes smoothly, no one in Northern Yan will dare to touch you in the future."
Jiang Ci Nian looked up in surprise, then calmed down a bit: "Thank you, King of Northern Yan."
He might not care about other things Yan Xingchuan gave him, but this promise was what he really needed. Even though the people of Duke Ping were still looking for him and he couldn't use them, once Beiyan won the world, he could appear in this world openly.
It's a pity to say that if there wasn't a huge hatred between the two of them, perhaps they could still be friends, get together in their spare time, chat, drink tea and wine, and discuss the heroes of the world.
What a pity.
A servant brought pen and ink, and Jiang Cinian wrote down the recipe for the medicinal food, then stood up and said goodbye.
Yan Xingchuan sat in his seat for a long time before getting up and leaving.
.
When Cui Si woke up, it was already completely dark. She didn't know how long she had slept, and she was so confused that she couldn't tell where she was.
Yanzhi took a soft pillow and helped her sit against the headboard to relax for a while. She rubbed her forehead and asked her, "What time is it?"
"It's almost 9 p.m."
After sleeping for so long, it’s no wonder that I feel dizzy and hungry.
"Have some food prepared and sent over."
As she spoke, she was about to come out and put on her shoes and get out of bed. Yanzhi helped her to stand up, and Songlu quickly took the coat from the shelf next to her and put it on her.
At the end of September, the weather was already very cold. It was okay with some sunshine during the day, but at night, it became chilly when the night wind blew.
The two men helped her out of the dormitory. As they walked through the bright hall and out of the door, they saw someone sitting on the steps under the corridor.
It was pitch black all around, and the lamp hanging on the corridor was swaying in the wind. It was really scary to see such a big man sitting there.
Cui Si held her stomach with one hand, and her memory came back to her. She remembered who this person was and almost called him crazy.
Hearing footsteps, he turned his head stiffly. Seeing that it was her, his expression relaxed and he asked her, "Are you going to get up at night?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he stood up and reached out to help her. Yanzhi and Songlu took a step back to make way.
Cui Si took a deep breath and asked him, "What are you doing here so late at night?"
"Thinking about something."
"What's up?"
Yan Xingchuan was about to say that it was nothing, but looking at her serious face, he hesitated for a moment, thinking that she had always been a decisive and frank person. If there was something, it was there, and if there was nothing, it was not there. What she hated most was that he was secretive and kept silent when there was something wrong.
Maybe it's really too tiring to stay with him, it's better to be alone and quiet.
Thinking of this, he said: "I'm just thinking about how to keep you, and what to do to make you satisfied and willing to be with me."
Cui Si raised her eyebrows and asked him, "Have you figured it out?"
"No."
He knew what she cared about most. There was no need to say anything else, he could do it, except Lin Qingning, who always provoked her, and he really couldn't do anything about Lin Qingning.
He also knew that this was what she cared about most.
Cui Si: "?!"
"So you've been standing here for so long and nothing has come of it?"
So your head is so big, is it for nothing?
Cui Si examined him from head to toe, and finally her eyes fell on his hand. Her expression changed slightly: "What's wrong with your hand?"
I saw that the skin on the joints of his left palm had been scraped off at some point, and there was some blood in two places. In the light, it seemed that there were some small gravel or dust.
"Nothing, just an accidental touch." He put his hand back behind his back and said to her, "Do you want to get up at night? I'll take you there."
"No need." Cui Si gritted her teeth, not wanting to pay attention to him, "I'm not sick."
It is said that couples are the closest or most distant of relatives. They should be close when they should be close, and distanced when they should be distanced. She is not mentally ill.
"Go back inside, Yanzhi. Have someone bring him some hot water so he can have a bath. He hasn't had a bath in ages, and he's covered in dust. If it bothers me, go find yourself somewhere by yourself."
After Cui Si said this, she patted his hand and asked him to step back quickly. She asked Song Lu to come and help her, and then she walked away, fearing that he would catch up with her.
It's enough to have the intention, there's no need to really accompany her.
