Chapter 143143
Sure enough, as soon as Nan Yan finished speaking, the leader opposite her frowned subconsciously.
Especially when I feel the two slender and soft little fingers of the lady wrapped around my waist, which are obviously harmless, I feel inexplicably weak in my heart.
The leader, who had a kind of beast-like intuition, was very sensitive to the problem, and immediately shook his head and said, "That day will never come. I will protect you."
Nan Yan pinched him slightly and glanced at him. It was obvious that she was not satisfied with the answer. She continued to ask unhappily, "What if, what if?"
In the past, as a wife, she would not have dared to make such a fuss. But now she has figured out this man's bottom line and knows how much he indulges her in his heart.
Nan Yan couldn't help but pursed her lips. Why didn't she seize the opportunity to act pretentiously? If she didn't make him suffer so much that his hair fell out, it would be unworthy of how gently and attentively she had coaxed him some time ago.
Yu Liuyun still frowned, touched her little hand, and suddenly looked at her seriously and said, "There won't be such a if, Yanyan, are you scared by what happened tonight?"
"Don't worry about these messy things that will never happen. I will protect you in the future and won't let anyone hurt you, so there won't be such ifs."
Nan Yan thought silently in her heart, it sounds nice to say, but she doesn’t know if the person in front of her will be the one who hurts her the most.
Nan Yan was still not satisfied after hearing this. She turned around and asked him gloomily, "Why not? Is it because you can't choose a husband? But if you really care about someone you like, would it be so difficult to choose? You clearly don't care about me."
Yu Liuyun's brows never relaxed. "No, it's not what you think, Yanyan, stop imagining it, okay?"
"I just don't know how to say it. If you just say it, it's easy to do, but if you really encounter this situation one day, who can say what choice you will make?"
Nan Yan raised her eyes to look at him, feeling even more annoyed, "Why can't you tell? What are you hesitating about?"
Yu Liuyun relaxed his brows slightly and told her the reason in his heart, "Because I consider the problem from a different angle than you do, Yanyan, you have never been involved in the martial arts world before, so you don't know how treacherous people are in this world. If there really comes such a day, if I choose you, it will only put you in a more dangerous situation."
Seeing the doubtful look in the man's eyes, Yu Liuyun's heart softened, and his tone became lighter. He whispered, "Have you forgotten that we are the demons that those decent people despise? Once they find your weakness, they will seize this opportunity and target you without any scruples. That's why I hesitated. So until the last moment, no one can predict what will happen in the future."
Nan Yan was stunned.
I thought to myself that I had been fooled by him. His perspective on problems was indeed different from that of ordinary people. Which normal person is like him? He has eight hundred tricks in his body and analyzes the problem so thoroughly.
Is this the answer to a rational analysis of the question she wants to hear? She is clearly making a fuss and making trouble out of nothing.
Bah, who wants to listen to your standard answer!
After hearing this answer, Nan Yan's chest felt even more blocked. She raised her eyes slightly, her eyes still had a hint of tears from crying. After being kissed by him, her cheeks were slightly red, and the corners of her eyes seemed to be stained with a layer of rouge, revealing a peachy pink.
She pushed him away. She was not going to let him go today. Her tone was more sullen, angry and resentful. "Who wants to listen to your serious analysis of the problem? You analyze it so thoroughly. Do you think I'm one of your subordinates? You are giving me such a long speech. What's wrong with me just wanting to hear a few nice words? Can't you just say something nice to comfort me?"
Yu Liuyun: “…”
So, is his wife deliberately acting coquettishly towards him?
Yu Liuyun's eyes flickered slightly, and he turned to look at his wife with such eyes. She turned her face away and snorted in grievance. Suddenly, all the depressed emotions in the leader's heart disappeared, leaving only a warm feeling.
He couldn't help but pursed his lips, a smile suddenly appeared in his eyes, and then he kissed the chattering little mouth, "I know, I choose you, is this okay?"
Nan Yan was startled by the surprise attack and she blinked.
She finally felt much better. After all, she had transformed the cold and indifferent leader into a person who would actively coax others. Nan Yan felt a sense of accomplishment.
The corners of her mouth twitched, and she wanted to smile but had to suppress it. Then she turned her head to look at the man and asked, pretending to be ignorant, "Then let me ask you, are you still thinking about your fiancée in your heart? If there is a chance in the future, do you still want to keep her by your side?"
After hearing this, the leader's expression paused slightly, and his eyes dimmed slightly, because if it wasn't for the future, he would have already imprisoned that person by his side now.
Thinking of the ex-fiancée trapped in the underground palace...
Yu Liuyun's heart suddenly skipped a beat, especially when Yanyan asked this question, he suddenly felt a subtle sense of guilt and uneasiness in his heart.
He didn't want to lie to his wife, but he couldn't tell the truth at this moment, so he turned his head away from her sight and then held her in his arms without leaving any trace.
“Are these things important to you?”
Hearing this, Nan Yan asked him softly and angrily, "Are these things not important?"
Hearing this persistent question, the leader frowned and held her tighter, as if he was worried that something would be discovered. "Yanyan, I have my own reasons for doing everything. Can you stop asking about these things? You never paid attention to these things before."
Nan Yan chuckled in her heart, yes, she didn't care about these things before, that was because he kept it a secret so well, she didn't know anything at all. Sure enough, now that she asked this question, this man started to avoid it. Well, since the relationship is there, it's time to calm down for a while.
But if you want to act, you have to do it in full. Thinking of this, she showed a depressed look on her face again. She reached out and pushed her husband's chest, then turned her face away and said obediently, "I understand what my husband means. I won't ask anymore in the future."
Her eyelashes drooped slightly, and her long and thick eyelashes obscured the expression in her eyes. With this look, anyone could tell that she must be sulking again, and this sulking was not just ordinary anger, but something she really kept in her heart.
Yu Liuyun just felt that something was wrong. He had never been treated like this by his wife before. He suddenly had an indescribable feeling in his heart, and it was all his fault.
Yu Liuyun opened his mouth and wanted to explain, "Yanyan, you know, that's not what I meant..."
"I know what my husband means."
Nan Yan interrupted him without waiting for him to finish, then turned away and didn't want to look at him.
"It's just that it's getting dark now. I'm a little tired and want to rest. My husband should go back and rest as well. You have to get up early tomorrow to deal with church affairs. You don't have to worry about me anymore."
Sure enough, just as he finished speaking, he saw the leader opposite him frowning, as if he had encountered a martial arts move that was even more troublesome than the most difficult one he had ever cracked.
Yu Liuyun looked at her expression and wanted to say something else, but the person in his arms suddenly turned over and rolled directly from his arms onto the bed. She rolled just right, with her back facing him, looking like she was unwilling to discuss anything.
Yu Liuyun frowned and stared at his wife's back for a long time, but she never turned back to look at him.
After a while, Yu Liuyun rubbed his swollen brows and felt that tonight might not be a good time and such a topic was indeed not suitable to be discussed anymore.
He reached out and pulled the messy quilt over, then gently covered the person underneath, "Well, since nothing happened, then you can rest first. However, if you have any worries in the future, you can tell me directly, and don't keep it to yourself like this."
After Yu Liuyun smoothed the quilt for her, he looked at his wife lying on the bed, who refused to even look at him. Suddenly, he felt a tightness in his chest and felt upset.
I've never been so bored.
He didn't know how to describe the feelings in his heart at the moment. He was indeed thinking about his fiancée, and he really cared about her. Since he was fourteen, he was told that Lin Pianran would be his wife for the rest of his life.
They had been together, spending the most ignorant and frivolous moments of their youth.
Naturally, they had been attracted to each other, but when he was at his most humble and desperate, the woman mercilessly trampled him into the mud. She treated him like a beggar, crushed the token of their love, and broke his leg.
How could he possibly endure such humiliation?
He was really unwilling!
If he just let her go without holding a grudge, what would be the meaning of him risking his life to test the poison and gritting his teeth to persevere? It was obviously that deep-rooted hatred that supported him and kept him alive in pain.
From his high-spirited teenage years to the time when the Yu family was wiped out, Lin Pianran occupied almost all of his mind in his youth. All his joys, sorrows, anger and happiness were caused by her, and she controlled all his emotions.
The more he cared at first, the more resentful he became later. If it weren't for that lingering hatred, he might not have been able to hold on until the moment he recovered his martial arts.
只要一想到那個女人，他便覺得心頭像是被一團火在翻來覆去的燒着了一樣，那種被人唾棄後的不甘跟屈辱，還有那種混亂又複雜的情感，時時刻刻折磨着他。
所以他想要讓她後悔，讓她痛苦，她不是看不起他嗎？她不是不喜歡他、瞧不上他嗎？他偏要她那個高高在上的名門大小姐跟他這個人人唾棄的魔教教主攪和在一起。
他就是要報複她，讓她也嘗試一下從高高在上的位置跌落泥濘的那種絕望。
他從前是喜歡過她，可現如今，他也不知道那到底是一種什麽樣的感情？
但心中唯一可以确定的是，
林翩然只能是他的！
他不會放過她，更不會眼睜睜看着她跟別的男子雙宿雙栖，成為一對神仙眷侶。
如果從前讓他在妻子跟曾經的未婚妻之間做個選擇的話，他會毫不猶豫地選擇林翩然，只因他所有的情緒全都因那個女人而起，他怨恨她，可也的的确确是在意她。
可是現在……
想到南嫣，禦流雲的思緒不由得一頓。
他從前對這個妻子确實沒什麽感情，也确實是因為被迫才娶了她，娶了她之後的生活和從前沒什麽區別，只因為他從未将她放在心上過，可現在卻變得有些不一樣。
想到她時，心中居然泛起絲絲甜意。
如果這世上只剩下唯一一個不會背叛他的人的話，那麽毫無疑問會是他的妻子。
不管他曾經經歷過多狼狽的事情，變得如何不堪，這世上，總有那麽一個人，始終是無條件的支持他……在意他。
她小心翼翼地靠近他，一心一意的愛着他，不會因他的身份而改變，更不會因為他失去所有而抛棄他。
原來這世上……
還有一個會永遠對他不離不棄的人，不論他是過去的乞丐要飯的，還是如今人人喊打的大魔頭，他的妻子從來沒有嫌棄過他。
這怎麽可能，不教他心動呢？
心中好似被一團溫軟輕柔的溫水包裹着，有種前所未有的陌生情緒翻湧出來。
人都是渴望溫暖、渴望被在意着的，即便如他一般多疑善變，心中對誰都不肯真正信任，可他心中仍舊希望能有那麽一個人，會一直站在身後不遠處等他。
只要他一轉身，就能夠看見她。
而現在，他也終于遇到了這個人。
所以，他也變得開始在意妻子的感受，而且私心裏很不願意她知道自己暗中做的那些事情，他怕她會傷心。
只是，她最近似乎察覺到了什麽，那麽，他現在到底該怎麽辦呢？
到底是放棄過去的仇恨跟妻子重新開始，還是一如既往的拉她同他一起在泥濘中掙紮糾纏？
而比起喜歡，怨恨這種情緒似乎更能在人心中留存長久。
禦流雲最終還是情緒複雜的離開了。
等他身影終于離去之後，那屋內躲藏的兩個人也終于忍不住出來了。
尤其是那慕容拓，在确定外頭動靜徹底消停之後，整個人幾乎是迫不及待地就從床底下爬了出來。
“妖女……”
慕容拓幾乎是咬牙擠出了那句話。
那張俊臉漲得通紅，他又氣又惱，手上還緊緊攥着那只黑色面巾，白皙的手背上印着一個不大不小的淤青腳印，那分明是南嫣剛剛毫不留情碾出來的。
瞧給他踩的，真是半點水分都沒有，這是下了死腳碾的啊。
慕容拓站在那床頭邊上，急得差點沒跳腳，“妖女，你裝什麽啞巴呢？別以為我不知道你是故意的，你分明就是在報複。”
南嫣心中哼了一聲，她當然是故意報複的，誰讓這人脾氣壞的天生就一副欠揍樣，要不是有他師兄在旁盯着不好動手，否則她肯定要坑蒙拐騙到讓這人懷疑人生！
稍後出來的趙修言看了一眼那床上的背影，只覺得氣氛有些不對勁，便下意識地訓斥了句，“師弟，別鬧了，我們今晚耽擱的太久了，也是時候該回去了。”
可惜極度氣憤中的慕容拓根本聽不進去師兄這番勸慰，他轉頭瞪着師兄，“我鬧？我什麽時候鬧了，師兄你到底還是不是我師兄了？你才跟她認識多久啊，為什麽你總護着她？”
慕容拓說完，轉過頭來又瞪着南嫣，結果那人背對着他們一動不動的，仿佛什麽都沒聽見似的，他心中頓時更惱了。
他下意識伸手拉了這人肩膀一下，将人身體掰了過來，結果一擡眸，就看到這人面色蒼白，幾滴瑩瑩的淚珠順着眼尾沒入鬓角，那發絲都被哭濕了一绺，粘在了一塊，整個人都不知道是從何時開始哭的。
慕容拓頓時傻眼了。
他也沒想到自己就說了這麽幾句話而已，這人怎麽就哭了？
而且哭得眼尾都泛紅了，被他掰過來的時候，那雙含着淚光的眼睛就這樣直直地望了過來，眼尾還挂着晶瑩的淚珠，滿是傷心難過的樣子。
慕容拓瞪着眼睛身子都僵住了，一開始氣的臉紅，現在是急得抓耳朵，嘴裏憋出一句，“這、這不關我的事，真不關我的事啊！師兄你都看到了，我什麽都沒做，我這次真沒欺負她，我就是、就是說了兩句而已！”
其實他沒想着要把這人怎麽樣的，畢竟踩都踩了，他也不可能再踩回去啊，那樣顯得他都沒風度啊，畢竟他還是知道要臉的。
只是她好歹也做個樣子吧，跟他說聲對不起就行了，稍微讓他面子上過得去就行了，現在啥都不用說了，他頭都大了！
方才那女人被吓哭的時候他就覺得無比麻煩，現在又被自己弄哭了，他更不知道該如何是好了？
還是趙修言想的深些，他看着一旁急得直抓頭的師弟，直接将人撥開，然後說了句，“不是因為你，師弟，你不用這麽着急。”
啊？不是因為他啊。
慕容拓聽到這話，心中頓時松了一口氣，不過師兄是怎麽知道的？
他立馬轉頭望向師兄。
趙修言沒理會師弟疑惑的眼神，他輕皺了下眉，稍微走上前去，很快又舒展眉心，然後平靜開口，“姑娘是因為你夫君沒有跟你說實話才這般傷心難過的嗎？”
慕容拓聽到這話立馬轉頭又看向那抿唇落淚的女子，他眼睛睜圓了，這會兒倒是反應過來了，只是那副若有所思的神态，倒讓那副張揚奪目的面容看上去沒那麽豔麗逼人了。
是了，應該就是這事了，跟他無關的。
這人根本不是他弄哭的。
還好還好，不關他的事。
慕容拓瞧着這人，想到這些，先前的情緒也平複下來，他直接上前說道，“喂，你現在知道我們沒有說謊騙你了吧。”
“你夫君的确是騙了你，他不僅沒有忘記自己的前未婚妻，也就是我的翩翩姐，還不擇手段地将人抓了回來，如今就關在你們玄蒼教地宮的某個位置，如果你還是不肯相信的話，你大可以自己去找。”
“怎麽樣，這下你相信了吧，知道你夫君從頭到尾都是個什麽樣的人了吧。”
結果話音剛落，他就瞧見原本躺在床上的女子眼神微變，然後直接從床上坐了起來，目光恨恨盯着他，一邊指責一邊無聲哭泣，
“是啊，現在你們滿意了吧？”
她淚珠落下，愈發顯得柔弱無助，“我夫君從頭到尾都在騙我，你們是不是很得意，覺得自己做了非常正義的事情？”
“你們為什麽要出現，為什麽要告訴我這件事情，又為什麽要打破我原本平靜的生活？誰稀罕你們告訴我的，誰又稀罕你們突然闖進來的，你們同樣也不是好人！”
聽到這話的慕容拓直接瞪圓了眼睛，一時間只覺得自己好心被人當成了驢肝肺，他好心提醒，居然還要被人罵多管閑事。
饒是他臉皮夠厚，此刻那張如玉的面龐不可避免地又漲紅了，口中“你、你”說了半天，最後只氣惱憋出了一句，
“小爺我好心提醒你，你不領情就算了，居然還說這種話，難道你想一直被人騙嗎？”
再柔軟的性子也有爆發的那一刻，此刻南嫣就是，好似宣洩一般沖着他哭喊，“那跟你又有什麽關系？我被人騙那也是我自己的事情，誰稀罕你們多管閑事了？”
“你、你簡直就是不識好歹。”
不可救藥、不可理喻！
他慕容家的小少爺何曾受過這等悶氣啊，被人這般劈頭蓋臉地指責謾罵着。
可今晚也是見了鬼了，三番兩次地被這人氣的跳腳，而且還半點法子都沒有。
慕容拓真是氣極怒極恨極，這妖女果真是不識好歹，好壞不分，怪不得她被人騙！
趙修言瞧着師弟那沖動易怒的樣，實在是有些無奈，人家姑娘乍然間知道了自己被枕邊人欺騙隐瞞的事情，這種時候本就心情不好，偏他還硬着頭皮湊上去自讨沒趣，這不是讨罵嗎？
也真是活該他被人教訓了一頓。
After thinking for a while, Zhao Xiuyan turned his head to look at the crying girl again, and said in a low voice with a hint of soothing, "We are very sorry that we two brothers broke in and offended the girl tonight, but since this matter is a fact, it is impossible to pretend that it never happened. If the girl really doesn't want to believe the facts and just indulges in your husband's deception of you, then just pretend that we brothers never showed up tonight."
"My junior brother and I swear here that we will not tell anyone else about what happened tonight. Miss, don't worry about your reputation being damaged."
Zhao Xiuyan hesitated again, raised his eyes to look at Nan Yan who still had her eyes down, and then couldn't help but say, "However, if the young lady regrets it, you can also send someone to come to the Yuelai Inn at the foot of the mountain to find us."
"I know that you care about your husband, and so do I. I came here to rescue my fiancée. If you can help us rescue my fiancée, I will protect her from now on and will never let her have any contact with your husband again."
"Can the girl accept such a result?"
After Zhao Xiuyan finished speaking, his gaze fell on the woman opposite him again. He clearly saw the woman's eyelashes tremble slightly. She unconsciously clenched her fingers, as if she was hesitating, and her fingertips turned slightly white.
Zhao Xiuyan did not force this man. After he finished speaking, he gestured to his junior fellow apprentice. Then the two of them covered their faces with scarves and prepared to leave.
Just as Zhao Xiuyan turned around and left, the man behind him suddenly stood up and subconsciously grabbed his wrist. The soft and delicate palm gently pressed against the bite wound, which felt slightly itchy.
"Wait a moment." Nan Yan's voice was a little hoarse. She raised her eyes and looked at Zhao Xiuyan in front of her. Because she had just cried, the tears on her eyelashes had not dried yet. She stared at this man closely.
Being looked at like that, Zhao Xiuyan forgot to break away for a moment and just let her hold him.
Nan Yan pursed her lips and seemed a little conflicted, but because what he said really touched her heart, she had to compromise.
She hesitated for a moment, then continued, "Are you telling the truth? As long as I help you rescue that woman, you will take her away from here forever, never show up in front of me and my husband, and never bother us again, right?"
When Zhao Xiuyan heard what she said, he knew that the other party was willing to help them. If the leader's wife could cooperate with them from the inside, then rescue Pianpian without alarming Lu Liuyun, then the possibility should be extremely high.
So he nodded, "Yes, it's just as you said, I will take Pianpian back to get married, and even if your husband is unwilling, he can't do anything to a married woman."
Well, that's not necessarily the case.
When Nan Yan heard this, she thought to herself, you must have underestimated my stubborn husband, the leader. That man's temper is not something that ordinary people can control. Unless he doesn't want something anymore, he will never let it go even if he dies.
Nan Yan pursed her lips, and seemed to feel relieved after hearing these words. Then she raised her eyes and looked straight into his eyes.
"I can help you, but you have to keep your promise and not tell anyone about this."
When she said this, she glanced at Master Murong who was sulking beside her. The man was still angry. He snorted and turned his head away, refusing to pay any attention to her.
Zhao Xiuyan smiled and nodded at her, "I will keep my promise, and so will he. No one else will know about this except you and us."
After hearing his assurance, Nan Yan finally showed a relieved expression, then loosened her grip on his hand, nodded and said, "Okay, I understand, I will help you. When I find where the girl is being held, I will send someone to pass on the message to you."
Hearing her say this, Zhao Xiuyan paused for a moment, then took out a jade heart-shaped lock from his bosom and handed it to her, "Okay, use this as a proof when you pass on the message. Also, my fiancée recognizes this. If you find her, tell her that I'm trying to save her, and tell her not to be afraid."
Nan Yan hesitated for a moment, then reached out and took the heart-shaped lock from his palm.
Afterwards, the two of them left together, and peace finally returned to the house.
Well, very good. After all the twists and turns, she still has to help these two people. Nan Yan's mouth curled up slightly, touching this high-quality jade heart-shaped lock, which is indeed a good thing.
