Chapter 62 I love you so much...
She once thought late at night about why she accepted Yun Si's marriage proposal that day.
Originally a solitary figure, I stumbled into the moonlight, disturbing the cold light and shattering my shadow. From then on, I was no longer alone.
She seemed to be used to it.
I'm used to the warmth that clings to me when I'm sleeping, the sudden hugs, and the meticulous care.
She thought, she should be willing to marry Yun Si...
The wedding was set for next month, the day after the succession ceremony. Yun Si said that the Gu King's wedding would be more glamorous than the Young Master's.
He had prepared for a wedding before, back in Cangshui Village. Back then, he'd just begun to fall in love, completely absorbed in the joy of marriage, oblivious to the calculations. Looking back, every last detail was rife with falsehood.
But at that time, he was really happy.
But he was certain that what she had experienced was true. They were similar yet different. He had a mother, but Jiang Li had nothing.
In Miao territory, everyone except his mother knew his true face. Beneath this seemingly gentle facade, he harbored a host of dark secrets. Yun Si married her under the guise of innocence, prepared to live out his pretense for the rest of his life.
He saw that she was also pretending, but underneath her disguise, she wasn't as bad as he was, just a little cold-blooded. He would secretly delight in peeling back a little of her true self, and his heart would flutter when he saw her panicking and covering up, and he would be excited when she occasionally showed her true feelings...
I don’t know where the emotion comes from, but it exists as soon as I see it.
As she gradually shed her disguise, he gradually took on those darker thoughts. Invasion, possession, assertion of sovereignty. But those intense emotions, once fully revealed, became even more out of control, only intensifying.
How can you possess it for a moment? It takes a lifetime, the next life, and countless generations to come.
Although the wedding was still half a month away, Yun Si had already begun preparations. That morning, she'd chosen the material and style of her wedding gown, then her headpiece and accessories. Miao wedding attire was so elaborate that just thinking about it gave her a headache.
Yun Si disappeared for the whole morning, and when he came back, he said, "You guys go down first."
Jiang Li didn't look at him. She still didn't dare to think that she was really going to marry Yun Si...!
She deliberately avoided his gaze, but Yun Si smiled. He walked over and took Jiang Li's hand: "Are you tired?"
Very weird...
Perhaps she had never been in a peaceful relationship with Yun Si.
"fine."
He put his arm around her and held her in his arms: "I have a lot of things to do today, so I can't accompany you all the time."
Unexpectedly, she didn't resist, but just shrank back.
Jiang Li felt like he was out of sorts. His body, heart, and mind were all weird...
"It's normal for you to be... busy."
"Sister, why are you so nervous?" Yun Si reached out and pinched her waist, causing her body to tremble. He chuckled and joked, "It's broad daylight, I wouldn't do anything..."
Her throat was dry, so she just swallowed.
Yun Si's actions were clearly the same as usual, yet she felt inexplicably nervous. She reached out to push him away, as if to escape.
But he hugged her tighter, and put both his hands on her waist at the same time, his fingers wandering around her waist until he completely held her.
"do what!"
Yun Si chuckled: "Measure."
The voice was full of teasing, as if it was mocking.
Jiang Li was silent for a moment, then pushed him away: "Measures are measured, what are you doing?"
The change in tone clearly showed anger.
Yun Si acted like a scoundrel and stretched out his hand in front of her: "Use your hand as a ruler. I know every minute and every inch very well. For example, here——"
He smiled and touched the joint of one finger with his other hand: "It's the most sensitive here, so it's suitable for the beginning."
He moved his finger again: "This inch reacts the fastest, suitable for taking shortcuts..."
…
When Jiang Li realized what he was saying, her face flushed... and she turned away in panic.
Maybe it's because of her changed mindset that she feels shy about this?
He caught a glimpse of the blush on Jiang Li's face and continued, "Sister, I have studied it carefully."
"Stop talking!" Jiang Li gritted his teeth.
Seeing this, Yun Si took out a tape measure and put it against Jiang Li's shoulder.
Jiang Li's shoulders sank, and she said impatiently: "Didn't I say no..."
But Yun Si said aggrievedly, "I'm measuring the size."
Suddenly, Jiang Li was speechless.
Yun Si deliberately moved very slowly, and it took him a long time to measure: "Okay, sister, lift your arm."
Jiang Li reluctantly raised his arm: "I remember measuring it before, didn't I?"
She was talking about her last marriage.
"It's different. I was too thin back then."
Jiang Li turned his head away and asked, "Are you saying I'm fat?"
The girl's eyes were bright, tinged with a hint of anger. Her brows were furrowed, her cheeks puffed up, her lips curled up—clearly no part of her expression was relaxed, yet she looked beautiful.
His heartbeat stopped, and he stared straight ahead without blinking: "It looks better now."
Jiang Li touched his waist. Pregnant women's waists were indeed rounder. He raised his arms again and urged, "Measure quickly."
Yun Si was not affected by this at all. He was still unhurried and kept muttering: "I have to be more serious, otherwise what if the clothes I make don't fit me?"
He wrapped the tape measure around her waist from front to back, put it firmly on her waist, and slowly tightened it.
Then, he pulled hard...
Jiang Li fell backwards uncontrollably, finally resting firmly in his arms.
"Yun Si!"
"It's my fault!" Yun Si took the opportunity to hug her, "Sister, you won't be angry with me, right?"
"..." Jiang Li sighed helplessly, "If you want to hug me, then hug me. I..."
Before he could finish his words, he clasped his arms tightly, “But you will hide from me.”
"I'm not used to it."
"You'll get used to it if you do it more often." Yun Si opened his mouth and bit her earlobe, licking it gently. "So, in order to help you get used to it as soon as possible, why don't you hug me every time I come back?"
Jiang Li didn't answer, but instead urged, "Are you still going to measure?"
Yun Si burst out laughing: "Didn't I just measure it with my hands?"
…
After the marriage was announced to the whole Miao region, Jiang Chengze stayed there openly as a distinguished guest. He was also happy and at ease, and had a good time in Miao region.
Yun Si had been secretly visiting the spies he had planted earlier. Leaving aside those who had shown their loyalty, he had dealt with those who had secretly betrayed him on the spot. This move was hasty but highly effective.
In addition to these spies, there is also the most important force.
The [Gu Man] he raised.
These individuals have longer lifespans and better physiques than ordinary humans. They obey Yun Si and are not subject to change of master. Although few in number, they are extremely rare.
The driver on the return trip was the Gu Man.
Putting aside those who were sure of victory, Yun Si's only concern was Jiang Li. He naturally saw Jiang Li's reaction today, which was very different from before.
Although he could vaguely see her resistance, it was more obvious that she was trying to accept it. She was changing for him, but he felt inexplicably lost. To him, marriage was just marriage, but she didn't seem to see it that way.
Furthermore, the baby in her belly was fake. He could keep it a secret for a short period of time, but what would happen over time? It was undeniable that Jiang Li agreed to the marriage because of the child.
He had to keep it a secret...at least wait until Jiang Li no longer cared about the child and could no longer leave him. He thought about having a child with Jiang Li, but he couldn't do it...he needed a fake child, to last for a while before disappearing.
In the Miao region, there's a Gu technique called "Pregnancy Gu." This Gu can make a woman look like a pregnant woman. If the Pregnancy Gu is applied, the Love Gu will lose its effect.
After careful consideration, Yun Si decided to cast a curse.
He wanted to gamble and win her heart.
Yun Si hid the Gu in advance and when she approached the yard, she found Jiang Li playing with A Feng. A Feng was lying on the ground, exposing his belly and letting her touch him.
He had things on his mind, so naturally he couldn't be completely calm. He just stood at a distance, watching from afar.
Ah Feng howled twice, and Jiang Li teased him for who knows how long before he caught a glimpse of Yun Si in the distance out of the corner of his eye.
She looked at him and Yun Si quickly smiled.
Jiang Li stood up and walked towards Yun Si.
He clenched his fingers unconsciously as he looked at the woman approaching. He tried to calm himself down and said, "Sister..."
But before he could say anything, someone threw themselves into his arms. Then, a faint fragrance filled the air.
She hugged him lightly and then let go, then stood upright in front of him.
The sudden hug surprised him so much that he forgot to speak for a moment and just stared at her motionlessly.
"You said last time that you would hug me when we met..."
Before Jiang Li finished speaking, Yun Si hugged her and said, "Hold her like this."
He hugged me so tightly, as if he wanted to melt into my body.
The ambiguous tone made Jiang Li's ears soften.
"I...I understand." She tried to struggle to get rid of Yun Si, but he hugged her even tighter.
"I love you so much, sister..."
Jiang Li felt a flush on his face at the sudden sweet words.
But Yun Si's expression was solemn, and he stretched out his hand tremblingly...
