Chapter 336 A Leisurely Chat Under the Moon
Under the moonlight, Wan Ziyan's features appeared even more profound, like a touch of cool elegance under the bright moonlight.
Wan Qiqi was stunned, her eyes wide with astonishment.
A breeze swept through the hall, carrying away the sorrow from her face, leaving only a gentle smile.
"I just can't be sure, it's good that you admit it." Wan Ziyan's tone was relieved.
He didn't press Wan Qiqi about why she had kept it a secret, but instead said, "You're right, I should go now, not stay here!"
Having already lost his adoptive father, he cannot afford to lose Wan Qiqi and Bai Lingxuan as well.
During this time, he did not receive any letters from Bai Lingxuan, and he began to worry.
If she really marries someone else in the future, what should he do?
Wan Ziyan doesn't want to lose the people she cares about anymore.
He must be strong enough to protect his loved ones and his family, instead of letting others dictate his choices.
The mist in Wan Qiqi's eyes grew even thicker, as if it would burst through the obstruction at any moment and turn into a river pouring out.
Finally, she sniffled, stepped out the door, looked up at Wan Ziyan, and said softly, "Second Brother, be careful. I will protect myself. I have many people protecting me, so you don't need to worry."
As she spoke, Wan Qiqi gave Wan Ziyan a hug.
Wan Ziyan instinctively wanted to push Wan Qiqi away, but ultimately didn't.
He gave Wan Qiqi a light hug, a smile playing on his lips. "I know, and I will protect myself too."
Previously, he worried that Chen Yongnian wouldn't be able to protect Wan Qiqi.
Now, he believes that Chen Yongnian will definitely protect Wan Qiqi.
That's enough!
He could leave with peace of mind as long as everyone he cared about in Hefeng Town was doing well!
The two let go of each other, exchanged a glance, and then went to their own yards.
After talking it out, both of them were able to let go of their worries.
After closing the courtyard gate, Wan Ziyan leaned against the back of the door and took a deep breath, tears streaming down her smiling face.
She was afraid that Wan Ziyan would get involved in the court's infighting, but she couldn't stop Wan Ziyan from making his choice!
After a long while, she wiped away her tears and realized that Chen Yongnian had been standing downstairs for who knows how long.
Chen Yongnian swallowed hard, reached out his hand as if to wipe away Wan Qiqi's tears.
But in the next instant, he dejectedly lowered his hand and whispered, "My wife, I'm sorry, I..." I shouldn't have come back and not come to you immediately.
Before he could utter a word, he was stunned by a soft, delicate body bumping into him.
Her slender arms encircled his waist, and her soft, downy hair brushed against his neck, sending shivers of pleasure through him.
The faint fragrance of osmanthus mingled with the aroma of wine, filling his nostrils and seemingly intoxicating him with its scent.
Chen Yongnian had nowhere to put his hands, so he could only hold them half-raised.
"It's good that you're back!"
The hot breath he was breathing on his neck made Chen Yongnian's face turn red instantly.
Even if he were slow to notice, he could sense the change in Wan Qiqi's attitude towards him.
From initially avoiding him, to later not resisting him, and now taking the initiative, it is enough to prove the changes in his wife's feelings for him.
He could no longer suppress his longing for Wan Qiqi, and wrapped his arms tightly around her back as if he wanted to merge her into his own bones and blood.
Perhaps this is what the saying "After the clouds disperse, the moon shines bright" means?
Chen Yongnian trembled slightly with joy, but he was reluctant to let go of Wan Qiqi, fearing that she would disappear into the darkness and drift away from him after leaving.
He didn't know when it started, but his feelings for Wan Qiqi changed from a sense of responsibility to affection.
Perhaps it was when she opened her eyes and looked around at her familiar surroundings, feeling lost and confused.
Perhaps it was when she faced the plague without flinching.
Perhaps it's when she doesn't back down in the face of power.
perhaps……
He couldn't pinpoint exactly when it started, but his feelings for Wan Qiqi ceased to stem from a sense of responsibility.
Wan Qiqi stayed in Chen Yongnian's arms for a long time, and only when she felt she couldn't breathe did she start to struggle, but he held her tighter and tighter. She could only say in a hoarse voice, "I...I'm suffocating!"
Chen Yongnian was so frightened that he immediately let go of her.
Wan Qiqi considers herself the terminator of romance.
Embracing each other under the moon, sharing heartfelt words—what a romantic scene!
In the end, he ended everything by saying he was about to choke on his own words!
"Wife, are you feeling any better?" Chen Yongnian's eyes were full of panic, as if Wan Qiqi was really going to be suffocated by him.
With a "pfft," Wan Qiqi burst out laughing.
This man is such a fool!
Why does he look so dull-witted?
The moonlight made his features appear even more rugged, and the faint lines gave him an indescribable handsomeness.
Perhaps because he wasn't exposed to the sun all day, his skin seemed to appear fairer.
Chen Yongnian was no longer the dark-skinned man Wan Qiqi had first met; he was now a handsome man with striking features.
It turns out that if you take care of a husband you found elsewhere, he can really become more and more handsome!
Chen Yongnian became even more confused because of her smile.
His muscular physique and rugged face, paired with a bewildered look, made him appear somewhat comical.
"I'm just teasing you!" Wan Qiqi laughed for a while, then pulled Chen Yongnian to sit down at the stone table in the courtyard. Propping her head up, she asked, "Why are you back? Did you ask the magistrate for leave?"
Chen Yongnian shook his head and said, "I came to Hefeng Town with the county magistrate for work. He heard that your restaurant had opened, so he gave me a day off to help you."
Wan Qiqi nodded in praise, "This county magistrate is quite good!"
Chen Yongnian hesitated for a moment after hearing her affirmation, wondering whether he should tell his wife who the new county magistrate was.
After hesitating for a while, he figured his wife probably wasn't curious about it, so he didn't say anything.
Then he remembered what Wan Ziyan had said when he entered, and stared at Wan Qiqi seriously, asking, "Wife, why are you drinking?"
