Chapter 342 A Pure and Few Desires
What brings you here?
There were no lights in the tent, but it wasn't dark.
The firelight outside illuminated the people inside, making their figures clear and their expressions quite transparent.
His eyes shone brightly, and his voice was filled with joy.
They carried the person in and walked all the way to the chair before putting them down.
She sat in a chair, and he half-squatted in front of her, tilting his head back and looking at her with his eyes blinking.
"I got jealous when I heard someone was offering you a beautiful woman, so I came to check it out."
"Really?"
"Fake."
I knew it was fake.
Why would she be jealous?
Ji Ruyan looked somewhat disappointed, her eyelids slightly drooping.
"Actually, I missed you," Lu Qingqing said again.
"real……"
Never mind, he won't ask anymore.
"This time it's for real."
Lu Qingqing cupped that captivating face and kissed it.
Just now, all the women in the room had their eyes glued to him; he was like the most tempting piece of meat, constantly enticing them.
She had wanted to do this for a long time.
It was better to wear a mask back then.
Honestly, I'm really jealous.
He was instantly ignited, and began to intensify, like a beast that had been holding back for a long time and gathering its strength.
After a long while.
Their foreheads touched, and his voice was dark and hoarse.
"If I wanted to arrange a marriage now, what would you say?"
"sure."
"real?"
"Why……"
After thinking about it, Lu Qingqing decided not to implicate Mo Lang.
Being a bodyguard with a powerful father figure is tough; let's not let him get criticized.
"I was just saying, don't take it seriously. I know now is not the time," Ji Ruyan said quickly.
It was as if he was trying to make amends for what he had just said.
Lu Qingqing looked at him and said bluntly, "If you want to get engaged, then get engaged. But even if you get engaged or even married, it makes no difference to me. No rules can bind me."
The man's hand tightened, and his eyes suddenly filled with pain and panic.
He quickly covered it up, laughing, "I didn't mean to trap you, it's just... I'm afraid that what we're doing will affect your reputation."
I think things are fine as they are now.
As for the rest, we can discuss them once the situation stabilizes.
Lu Qingqing pulled him up and made him sit in a chair.
She sat on his lap, her arms wrapped around his neck.
Ji Ruyan felt sad, but her actions still made her blush.
He loosely wrapped his arms around her waist, afraid she would fall.
"Ji Ruyan, I truly love you."
To be honest, I hadn't thought that far ahead before. I feel that now that we're both clear about our feelings, we can be together.
As for the future, who knows what might happen?
Sometimes, loving each other doesn't guarantee being together.
This might make you feel that I haven't taken our relationship seriously.
The man listened intently, his eyes never blinking.
Lu Qingqing added, "Actually, I'm very serious."
I just didn't make my thoughts clear to you.
"Today, I'm making this clear to you: if there are things you disagree with, then let's stop here and stop arguing with each other."
"I agree!" Ji Ruyan tightened her arms in fear.
"You still don't know what I'm going to say!"
"I agree with whatever you say, as long as you don't stop now."
Lu Qingqing noticed his fear and was momentarily stunned.
I hadn't realized it before, but after that unspoken understanding was revealed, his emotions seemed to burst forth like a dam breaking.
It seemed deeper than she had imagined.
"First of all, I know I have no right to dictate your life, but I still hope you can become emperor, because you can bring stability to the Great Gan."
"Secondly, I will not enter the palace, even if you offer me the position of empress. You know I am determined to dedicate my life to medicine."
"Third, I will not share a man with anyone. If you have another woman, we can part amicably. Don't force me."
She hoped he would become emperor; she wouldn't enter the palace and couldn't accept him having other women.
Lu Qingqing thought that she was just making things difficult for her, indirectly implying that the two of them wouldn't last.
Ji Ruyan stared at her for a long time without saying a word.
See? It's not that she's not serious; it's just that their identities create a real dilemma.
Let's make things clear in advance to avoid future problems.
"So, isn't it good that we're like this now? At least we've had one, so we won't have any regrets later."
"If I become emperor in the future and don't seek other women, will you maintain this relationship?" Ji Ruyan asked slowly.
“If the world stabilizes, I will probably travel all over the world,” Lu Qingqing said.
"I won't stop you from traveling the world. Even if you only go to the capital a few times a year, no, even once a year or once every two years is fine. I won't find other women. Can you still not break up with me?"
"Ji Ruyan, don't make things difficult for yourself..."
"It's not difficult, just don't abandon me."
Ji Ruyan said, "It's true, I've always been a person who is pure and detached from worldly desires. Even if you're not here, I can handle state affairs and do many other things. As long as you have me in your heart, you will come back when you miss me."
He was so humble.
His eyes held a pleading look.
Lu Qingqing wanted to cry.
She couldn't guarantee that Ji Ruyan wouldn't change in the future, but she knew that what he said now was true.
He presented her with all his heartfelt affection, completely open and honest.
He said he would never look for another woman again, and would wait year after year for her few visits.
How could he be so stubborn?
Is it really impossible for him to be with her?
"You really are my love tribulation!"
Lu Qingqing was moved, kissed his cheek, and solemnly said, "Okay, if your love remains steadfast, I will naturally not be a heartless person."
At worst, I'll just stay in the capital longer in the future, and treat going out to practice medicine as a business trip!
In any case, I will never make him wait for a year or two.
Men's prime doesn't last long either; if they remain abstinent for too long, they'll wither away early.
Thinking about it this way, Lu Qingqing felt quite happy and no longer felt so depressed.
“Qingqing…” Ji Ruyan’s voice was excited.
He couldn't help but kiss her, filled with gratitude and ecstasy.
"Oh dear... you say you're detached from worldly desires, so why does a dagger always appear in your possession?"
Lu Qingqing deliberately shook it.
"I... I mean I feel more at ease and detached when you're not around."
Haha, who would believe that!
Once you've tasted meat...
During the kiss, Lu Qingqing suddenly realized that her face was painted so badly that even her own father wouldn't recognize it.
Oh my god!
So Ji Ruyan could even bring herself to bite a ghost face!
Yes, it's definitely true love.
"Qingqing..."
In the dead of night, Ji Ruyan gently woke up Lu Qingqing, who was asleep.
The fire outside has been completely extinguished.
"I'll have someone escort you out now."
"Um……"
Lu Qingqing rubbed her eyes to clear her head.
Last night, after they kissed, they held each other and talked quietly. It was so comfortable that she fell asleep in his arms in no time.
Before going to sleep, I heard him say that the general in this military camp, Tian Sheng, was a former subordinate of the old Prince Qing'an. He was of average talent, and the old prince said in his letter that this man was not calm and steady and was not suitable for important tasks.
Use it if it works, discard it if it doesn't.
Ji Ruyan observed the man during his visit and concluded that he was indeed unsuitable.
However, he didn't want to create unnecessary trouble or waste troops, so he planned to leave him for the time being.
Lu Qingqing knew that Tian Sheng was now trying to curry favor with Ji Ruyan and that this wouldn't harm him, so she wasn't worried.
"How is the prefect here? Can we contact him to find the midwife Hong and the missing pregnant woman?" she asked.
Ji Ruyan saw that the paint on Lu Qingqing's face was a mess, and he didn't know if it was from his kiss yesterday, or from rubbing against her clothes, or perhaps both.
He dampened a handkerchief and wiped around her eyes and mouth.
He said, "Not good at all. He's definitely in cahoots with Tian Sheng. He's probably done a lot of bad things."
