Chapter 117 From beginning to end, only you
No one saw when the man in blue came to the woman.
The man who broke the rules let out a cry of pain, and then saw his arm being twisted neatly and thrown behind his back. By the time everyone reacted, he was face down in the dirt and being stepped on.
Xu Xingxing's mind suddenly became clear, and she hurriedly grabbed the man's sleeve. The man looked at her, then hugged her in his arms without saying a word and turned back to the house.
She secretly confirmed that the man was bloodless and breathed a sigh of relief. Her head immediately began to feel dizzy again, so she didn't resist. Sensing the gazes of those around her, she simply buried her face in Hou Yuan's chest, acting like a quail.
After entering the house and closing the door, the noise outside started to get noisy again. After Wei Yuan put some pressure on them, the noise became much quieter.
Hou Yuan put her on the bed and turned to pour her some water.
But as soon as her head touched the bed, she felt the wine she had just drunk suddenly boil over, as if it had all rushed to her brain, making her face hot, her body weak, and even her head began to hurt.
Wei Yuan brought some water and helped her half-up, but with just this slight movement, her head felt like it had been shaken in a washing machine several times, making her feel dizzy.
She closed her eyes and lay in Hou Yuan's arms for a long time, but she couldn't get over the dizziness and splitting headache.
After drinking the water that was at his lips, he muttered in dissatisfaction: "This wine has a strong aftereffect... Fortunately, I didn't drink too much... Please let me go slowly, my head hurts so much..."
Unexpectedly, the man did not put her down. He just adjusted his posture slightly, slowly placed her head on his legs, and then put his hands into her hair to massage her to relieve her pain.
It actually worked. The pain was slowly dispelled, her brows gradually relaxed, and the unbearable feeling slowly dissipated like the tide receding, revealing the drunkenness under the water.
Her hands unconsciously grabbed the corner of the man's clothes and exclaimed, "It feels so good... It really doesn't hurt that much anymore. By the way, when did you start studying medicine? It's only been a short time and you're already so good..."
The man's voice came from above: "It's been quite a while, almost half a year now."
That started when she was injured.
He is indeed a demon god.
She was about to praise him again when she heard the man's voice become slightly angry: "If I don't sit next to you, you will lose your self-control. You only know how to drink and not eat. It's a wonder you don't have a headache."
"How can you be so unrestrained..." Xu Xingxing retorted in a low voice, "It's only six or seven cups, and the woman next to me has already drunk half a pot..."
The man's anger deepened. "You're still trying to compare yourself to them? The winters here are longer, and to keep warm, they drink much stronger alcohol than in the Central Plains. They've been doing this since they were young, so of course they're used to it. How long have you been here?"
Xu Xingxing was drunk, and she felt warm in her heart when she heard these scoldings, which made her cheeks even hotter.
She tugged at the hem of the clothes even more, rubbing it unconsciously in her palm, and said, "I see, I see. You know so much, you're smart, and your medical skills are so good. How come you're so amazing..."
The man seemed to pause, and the fingers on her head moved slightly downwards, rubbing her face gently. After a long moment, his voice said hoarsely, "You know I'm powerful, but why don't you behave yourself?"
The touch on her face was as soft as a feather, and the slight coolness made her face itchy, and her heart even itchy, and even her throat was blocked. The man's breath kept enveloping her, making her more obsessed and intoxicated than the smell of alcohol, causing her confused mind to unconsciously flood with many images.
The restless feeling she had felt during the day came back. She pressed the hand on her face and buried her face in it, imitating the man's behavior early in the morning. She rubbed it a few times and said sullenly, "...If only you hadn't hurt my uncle..."
She suppressed the surging love, leaving only a slight and delicate sigh.
It's really strange why she loves him so much.
I want to...
The man's body was somewhat stiff, and he didn't move for a long time. The atmosphere in the room suddenly became cold. Xu Xingxing, under the influence of drunkenness, lingered in his palm for a moment, then got up and lay down on the bed: "I'm much better, you go to bed."
Unexpectedly, just as she raised her head a few inches, the hand on her face suddenly moved to her eyes. With a little force, she lay back in her original position, but the hand did not move away. Instead, it covered her eyes more tightly.
Darkness filled my eyes, and my ears became more sensitive. The man's breathing seemed very close, and his voice trembled slightly: "Today, I didn't kill anyone."
Xu Xingxing was startled, then realized who he was referring to. She pinched his fingertips and said affirmatively, "You did a good job. We are at Liu Niang's house, and today is her grandson..."
"I know." A murderous aura suddenly rose from Hou Yuan, and his voice turned cold. "But I still want to kill him. I want to chop off his hands and feet, blind his eyes, dig out his filthy brain and feed it to pigs, and then grind his body into slag in public to discourage those who peek at you. If that's not enough, I'll force them to eat him."
Xu Xingxing's skin stood on end. Just as she was about to speak, the man's fingers suddenly touched her lips, rubbing them gently. After a long while, he said, "But I didn't touch him..."
"I don't care who is getting married today, how festive the day is, or what anyone looks at or thinks of them, but I know that
"You care."
"So, I endured it."
Xu Xingxing wanted to say something, but he seemed to be deliberately preventing her from speaking. He patiently traced her lips again and again, his voice softening and tinged with subtle grievance. "After listening to what those old men said today, you must have thought that I viewed the people here differently from those who hate me? Right?"
His sudden turn of events made Xu Xingxing's slow brain unable to react for a moment. After thinking for a moment, she realized what he was saying and nodded.
"I knew it when you looked at me like that."
"You're surprised at why I gave in and apologized, why I was so patient, and you're relieved that I'm finally liked by others and have tasted the feeling of being respected. But, Xingxing, I don't care about this."
"The world's hatred and opposition are nothing more than this in my eyes, and the world's respect and protection are worthless to me.
"The only one I care about, from beginning to end, is you."
His sorrowful voice contained a paranoia that was impossible to ignore: "Your opinion, your gaze, and your likes and dislikes."
"You're the only one who's different."
"Xingxing, do you understand now? Everything I did, whether it was treating patients or bowing my head in apology, whether it was being gentle and polite or restraining my murderous intent, was only for you, only to make you happy."
He paused again, and used his fingers to slightly open Xu Xingxing's lips. Seeing her open her mouth and bite it, he continued cautiously: "Then I will do this, Xingxing,
Are you happy?"
She had been in a coma for a long time, but she still couldn't imagine what his expression was now.
But the trembling fingertips still revealed his panic at the moment, so she touched the hand that was covering her eyes, squeezed it hard, and nodded.
But her actions did not make the man relax. Instead, he became even more flustered and cautious: "Then, when will you... forgive me?"
As if afraid of hearing her answer, he pulled his thumb out of her mouth and pressed it against her lips. The other four fingers slowly rubbed her jaw and neck, his voice tender:
"Xingxing, I changed it.
"real."
"I will keep revising it. As long as you are here, I will keep revising it, and keep revising it until you are satisfied, until you are happy."
"But you have to stay, you must stay, you can't leave, otherwise all my changes will be wasted and will be shattered even more completely, so you don't, you must not... leave." At this point, the man paused for a while, finally took a deep breath, and spoke hesitantly,
"Of course, if you... if you could love me like you did before... I would change faster, faster. I would quickly become the person you like. I can... really can...
"Do you believe me?"
Xu Xingxing was stunned for a long time and couldn't digest his words.
The man still covered her eyes, so she didn't see it. His expression seemed to be humbled to the dust. He slowly leaned over and placed a deep kiss on the back of his hand that was covering her eyes.
Meek, pious, and faithful until death.
She finally reacted, feeling bitter and miserable in her heart, but she didn't say a word.
Of course, she couldn't say anything because the man still covered her mouth, as if he didn't need her to respond.
The hustle and bustle of the outside world gradually faded away, leaving only the sound of people packing up their things. Soon, even the clattering of tables, chairs, and dishes disappeared, leaving only silence.
As the silence slowly spread and the alcohol boiled, she felt the hand covering her eyes was as cool as water, yet still seemed to be adding fuel to the fire. Finally, the man spoke again: "Go to sleep, Star."
Both hands were finally moved away, and the candle in the room was extinguished at some point, so Xu Xingxing still couldn't see his expression.
The man put her head on the bed, lifted his clothes and got out of bed to sleep on the floor. However, Xu Xingxing's hand was faster than her thinking and grabbed the corner of his clothes that was about to fall off the bed. The man suddenly froze and turned around.
Xu Xingxing felt that she should say something, but the alcohol was flooding her brain, smashing her brain cells everywhere, so that she couldn't even put together a complete sentence.
Why did he cover her eyes? And why didn't he reply himself?
None of this seems important at this moment.
What is important?
What is the most important thing?
What……
Instinct finally took over her mind again, she grabbed the hem of her clothes tighter and whispered:
"...I want to hold you while I sleep."
I really just sleep in your arms.
Her mind was in a mess and her nerves were exhausted. After the man lay down, she quickly found the position that fit her perfectly. She arched her back, took a deep breath of the man's unique scent, and let out a satisfied sigh.
The next moment, she turned off her phone and went offline as if she had taken sleeping pills.
Xu Xingxing hadn't slept so comfortably in a long time. It was a shame to say that ever since she got used to sleeping with this person in her arms or being held by this person in her arms in the White Jade Room, she always felt like something was missing when she slept alone.
It was like she had eaten a meal of delicacies from land and sea, and then came back to eat her own home-cooked meals, but always felt that the taste was gone.
She is lustful and she reflects.
So, she initially thought that she would be able to sleep until dawn this time, but she was awakened by a woman's scream in the middle of the night.
The scream of pain was only a short one before it was suppressed. She withdrew from the man's arms with a hazy look and forced herself to stay awake. Before she could say anything, the man's hand touched the back of her head and said, "It's okay, go to sleep."
She raised her sleepy eyes in surprise and looked at the man: "What time is it now? Why aren't you asleep yet?"
The man's voice was a little hoarse: "It's still early, go to bed."
"I haven't slept for two hours..." Xu Xingxing was about to bury her head in his arms again when she heard another painful groan. This time she heard it more clearly because the sound was right next to them. In addition to the woman's delicate moan, there was also a whisper:
"...Um...husband...you...slow down..."
