Chapter 145
In the quiet study, Yu Liuyun was frowning as he pondered the relationship between him and his wife. The tension between the two had been at a stalemate for almost three or four days. He had been blocked outside Nan Yan's courtyard gate three times in a row with the same excuse in the past few days. If this continued, he felt that he would not be able to hold on any longer.
Sometimes he even had the urge to just barge in regardless of the consequences, but he was worried that if he did so, she might get even angrier.
Thinking about the cold treatment he had suffered in the past few days, Yu Liuyun felt an unprecedented depression in his heart, but he couldn't get rid of this emotion. He was extremely concerned in his heart, and even became particularly irritable and absent-minded when practicing sword, with his mind full of his wife's calm and submissive face.
The leader was very puzzled and felt depressed for no reason. She had been so gentle to him recently. But why was it that the more gentle a woman was, the harder it was for her to calm down once she got angry?
Yu Liuyun reviewed the relationship between the two from beginning to end. After thinking about it, he even made up his mind that if his wife still refused to forgive him, he would tell her everything about his past.
And there was the thing he had been hiding from her all along—he had captured his ex-fiancée and locked her up in the underground palace, preparing for revenge.
It was just because up to now, he found that his care for his wife seemed to be much deeper than his hatred for another woman. Although he was still brooding over past experiences, he really didn't want to make his wife sad.
What's more, she was already his wife, they had been married, and he was her husband. In the past he had not fulfilled his responsibilities as a husband, but things would be different in the future. They still had a lifetime to live with, and they would be together forever, and even have children. Thinking of those scenes, a warm feeling surged uncontrollably in his heart.
Before he met his wife, he was just a despised and abandoned beggar. To put it bluntly, he was no different from beggars. He tried hard to maintain his last bit of dignity, but was still cursed and spat on.
For a man like him to be lucky enough to survive and to marry such a gentle and beautiful wife, perhaps it was already God's kindness to him.
He had been blinded by hatred in the past and never seemed to care about the people around him. But if he thought about it carefully, the person he should have cared about the most was his wife.
After Yu Liuyun made this decision, he felt that his chest, which had been depressed and blocked, suddenly became much more relaxed as if he had breathed a sigh of relief.
Just at this moment, a maid came in and reported that the lady had specially cooked today and invited him to have dinner in the yard in the evening. This sounded like a goodwill gesture.
Yu Liuyun was stunned for a moment, then he couldn't help laughing.
He thought he was the only one who felt uncomfortable during this period, but he didn't know that his wife felt the same way. They cared about each other and it was obvious that they understood each other.
Yu Liuyun really couldn't help being happy this time. All the depressed emotions that had been accumulated in his chest seemed to have disappeared at this moment. He couldn't help laughing out loud because of this happiness. The subordinates who were waiting for orders on the side trembled even more when they saw the leader like this. There was a person who was against the leader in the past. When the leader killed him, he also laughed like this.
Yu Liuyun seemed to have noticed the trembling subordinates and maids beside him, and his expression paused for a moment. Was he really that scary? Forget it. He was in a good mood today and was too lazy to bother with them. He simply waved his hand and let the person who came to report the news go down first.
Yu Liuyun stood up after thinking about it and glanced at the sky outside. It seemed to be still early. Yanyan went into the kitchen to cook for him and invited him to her yard. Although he went to her yard many times during this period, they did not seem like a truly close couple. He thought to himself, since he and Yanyan were going to be a real couple in the future, should he move back to her yard, or she could move to his yard?
Thinking of this, there was no expression on the leader's face. He still looked cold and calm, but his earlobes were stained a little red.
He thought of their wedding ceremony and the wedding night. He had once been calm and composed, but now, thinking about it, he inexplicably felt hot on his face.
Perhaps because he had expectations today, he felt that the time to handle the church affairs became particularly long. He looked out the window several times, and asked his subordinates at the door several times without leaving any trace. When he got the same answer as before, he frowned slightly. He just wondered why the affairs to be handled today took so long? Obviously, he always felt that there was not enough time.
Seeing that it was finally getting dark outside, the leader looked out the window again and saw that the little maid who usually served his wife finally came to invite someone. He instantly breathed a sigh of relief, put down the work at hand without hesitation, turned around and went straight to his wife's yard.
When he entered the room, there were only a few maids serving tea in the hall. He didn't see his wife, so he turned to look at the maids and asked subconsciously, "Where is the madam?"
Hearing the question, the maids smiled. They were no longer as afraid of the master as before, but they still bowed their heads and replied respectfully, "Master, please wait a moment. Madam has gone to the kitchen to cook. She should be back soon."
Yu Liuyun raised his eyebrows slightly, and couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face when he heard this. A group of maids around saw the leader standing at the door and smiling, which was rare, so they couldn't help but lean over to look at her, and then pursed their lips and smiled too. Yu Liuyun saw it, but didn't care much.
When Nan Yan came back with a few happy maids, she saw her husband standing at the door with his head down and smiling. She couldn't help but smile, "Husband, when did you come? Why are you standing at the door instead of going in? I told you to go in and wait first."
As she spoke, she stepped forward and gently grasped his sleeve. She turned her head and glanced at the maids carrying food boxes behind her, and carefully instructed them, "Hey, be careful when serving it to the table. Be careful not to burn it. Xiaotao, Qiuju, it's getting late. Don't serve here anymore. Go to the small kitchen and get some food. You don't have to serve us after dinner. Go back and rest early."
Upon hearing this, the two maids hurriedly and carefully arranged the meal, then bowed and saluted to the leader who was standing beside them, then turned around and left.
Yu Liuyun looked at the food brought by the maids with some surprise. There were many varieties, six dishes in total, and there was also a pot of warm wine on the table nearby.
Is today a special day?
Why is it so abundant?
The leader held his wife's wrist with his backhand and looked down at the man. Nan Yan saw the surprised look on his face and her face turned slightly red. She directly pulled the man to sit next to her and said uncomfortably,
"Why is my husband looking at me like this? Am I the kind of person who likes to make trouble?"
Yu Liuyun looked at his wife and saw that she seemed to have returned to her former gentle self. She started blushing after saying a few words. The more he looked at her, the softer his heart became.
Nan Yan said as she exhaled again, then raised her eyes and met her husband's dark pupils. There seemed to be a flash of nervousness in her eyes, and she turned her face away subconsciously, then said softly, "Actually, I have thought about it for a long time these days, and I have thought a lot. I care about my husband more than he cares about me, so I don't want to waste our time like this. My husband and I finally became husband and wife, how can we get over those angry unimportant and unfounded things? This will inevitably hurt our relationship."
After saying this, Nan Yan's watery eyes looked at her husband beside her again, and her voice became softer, "Husband, let's not quarrel anymore, okay? Even if we can't avoid quarreling again in the future, you can't ignore me like before. You know I'm very sad."
Sure enough, when she said this, her tone was obviously unhappy, as if she had thought of something unpleasant. She raised her eyes and glared at the man angrily, with resentment hidden in her tone, "Besides, you know that I'm easy to please, why can't you say a few more nice words to please me? And you want me, a weak woman with no power, to bow to you first. This is too unfair."
The leader was slightly moved when he heard this. He wondered in his heart when he had ignored his wife. He had almost written the word "apology" on his forehead in the past few days. It was obvious that she was refusing to pay attention to him.
But he didn't dare say this.
Since his relationship with his wife became closer, the leader seemed to understand one thing, that is, when his wife gives him a bad name, it is best to apologize as soon as possible, otherwise after a while, this person will probably become sulky and refuse to talk to anyone again.
Moreover, being looked at by his wife with such eyes, Yu Liuyun no longer had any anger in his heart. He just felt as if his chest had turned into a ball of cotton wool, incredibly soft. His brows relaxed slightly, and his body leaned forward, getting closer to his wife, then he reached out and held his wife's wrist tightly.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault. I promise you that I will tell you everything that happened in the past. There is one more thing I..."
Before he could finish his words, Yu Liuyun's fingers touched his wife's palm, felt some fine and rough scratches on her fingers, and gently pinched them. The person in front of him subconsciously let out a light "hiss", then shrank back with her hands clenched.
Yu Liuyun frowned unconsciously, and with a little force, he directly pulled her hands over, "What's wrong with your hands?"
As he spoke, he quickly lowered his head to check again, and found that his wife's fingers were covered with tiny wounds and some reddish burns. Because her fingers were soft and white, the wounds were even more obvious and glaring.
The leader's expression changed instantly, and even his tone became more serious. "What's going on? Why are there so many small wounds on your hands? Did you accidentally make them in the kitchen this afternoon?"
The more he spoke, the angrier he became, and for some unknown reason he felt annoyed. Of course, this annoyance was not directed at his wife, but at the personal maids who had not taken good care of his wife.
"Who told you to do this? Wasn't the maid watching? You are the leader's wife. When did you ever need to do those things yourself? You are injured like this and you still want to cook. Are you cutting your own hand with a knife? You know your body can't stand a little pain."
As Yu Liuyun spoke, he let go of Nan Yan's hand, turned around and went to the cabinet opposite to search for a long time. Then he took out a box of dark green ointment, pressed his wife's hand directly, frowned, and began to apply the ointment for her with a bitter and resentful look.
Nan Yan was stunned by this man's operation. If someone didn't know, she would have thought that her fingers had been seriously injured, seeing how nervous and anxious this man looked.
Nan Yan suddenly couldn't help but pursed her lips and chuckled, "So my husband is so worried about me, but these are just minor injuries, they don't hurt that much. I just haven't cooked for a long time, so my cooking skills are a little rusty, and I accidentally cut a few small cuts. Besides, these minor injuries are nothing, they are not as painful as the silver ingot that my husband hit me on the head with."
She stretched out her soft fingers and gently grasped the back of her husband's hand, her voice becoming more joyful, "Besides, the suffering and injuries that my husband has experienced in the past are much more serious than mine. My minor injury is not a big deal at all."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was hit on the head. The leader frowned, glanced at the person, and then said calmly, "What nonsense are you talking about? Can your body compare with mine? I am a man, and I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child to strengthen my body. I have always been thick-skinned and strong. This little injury is nothing. You are different. Don't suffer such things again in the future."
As he spoke, his slender white fingers picked up the dark green ointment in the box and gently applied it on his wife's soft fingers.
Nan Yan only felt the wound was cool and a little itchy, especially when she saw the man opposite her pursed his lips and looked serious, she couldn't help but go over and kiss him.
The leader was stunned for a moment by the kiss, then he raised his eyes, his gaze slowly fell on his wife opposite him, and saw her backing away with a slightly red face.
The maids standing around saw this intimate scene in the hall, and they covered their mouths and couldn't help laughing secretly.
Hearing this faint laughter, Nan Yan seemed a little embarrassed. She pursed her lips lightly, pinched the soft flesh of his palm with her fingers, and then said in a low voice, "It's all your fault. The maids laughed at me. Okay, stop bothering me. If you keep making such a mess, the food I specially prepared for you will get cold, and it won't taste good if it gets cold. Hurry up and eat..."
Upon hearing this, the leader grasped her little hand that was pinching him, and his ears felt a little hot. He coughed and glanced at the maids who were making small movements all around. Several maids immediately fell silent, lowered their heads and dared not look at him again.
The leader was satisfied. He held his wife's hand, and his movements became more delicate and gentle.
"Why are you in such a hurry? I'll eat it all even if it cools down. If you don't finish applying the medicine on your burn, you might get blisters tomorrow morning. Okay, stop glaring at me. I'll eat it."
The leader held his forehead helplessly, and under his wife's increasingly annoyed gaze, he picked up the chopsticks swiftly and picked up the food one by one, tasting them carefully.
Seeing this, Nan Yan's black eyes flickered again, then she picked up the wine that had been warming on the table, poured a glass and passed it over. The room suddenly became quiet with only the sounds of picking up food and drinking.
Perhaps it was because the atmosphere was so good tonight, or perhaps it was because these meals were all made by his wife herself, but Yu Liuyun just felt that his wife's face was particularly beautiful and gentle tonight. The corners of his mouth curved as he watched his wife pour him another glass of wine. Perhaps because of his injured fingers, the fingers holding the wine pot were a little unsteady. He took the initiative to reach out and take it, drinking it down gently.
The wine tastes very light, with the aroma of pear blossoms, but when it goes into your stomach, it feels like a burning fire.
After three cups, Yu Liuyun felt like he was a little drunk. Looking at his wife's face getting closer and closer, he stretched out his hand unconsciously. The dim candlelight reflected on that white jade-like face. Yu Liuyun felt as if his brain was paralyzed by something. He tried hard to stay awake, but his mind was in a mess and the only thing in his eyes was the person in front of him.
He reached out and pulled her into his arms. She frowned slightly, then smiled softly at him and called his name softly, "Husband, are you drunk? Can I help you go back to your room to rest?"
"Yan Yan..."
The drowsy man called her name softly.
Yu Liuyun's brain seemed to have become a little dull, but he was still very persistent in his desire. He pursed his moist lips, subconsciously grabbed his wife's waist and pulled her into his arms.
Nan Yan couldn't help but fall into Yu Liuyun's arms again. She wondered in her heart whether the drug Zhao Xiuyan gave her would work or not. He was in such a state, why was he still holding on to her and refusing to let go?
She wanted to get up, but the other person held her down and prevented her from getting up. His forehead gently rested on hers, and their noses touched each other, and their breath was warm and moist.
There seemed to be a hint of intoxication in his eyes, and he looked at the person in his arms with a confused look. His lips touched hers, "Yan Yan, can we be husband and wife?"
Yu Liuyun called her name in a hoarse voice. His throat moved involuntarily, and his eyes seemed to reveal a hint of lust and desire. "Yan Yan, let's be a real couple..."
"Can we make up for our wedding night last time?"
"Yan Yan..."
Yu Liuyun called her again in a low voice, but got no response. Instead, he could only see his wife's calm and gentle eyes looking at her strangely. He slowly approached her, put his palm on her skin, and looked at her slightly absent-mindedly.
His breath was getting closer and closer, and just when he was about to kiss her lips, Nan Yan felt her shoulders sink slightly. The man finally couldn't hold on any longer and passed out.
Seeing that the drug was finally taking effect, Nan Yan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She asked the maid to carefully help the person to the bed in the inner room, take off his coat and shoes, cover him with a quilt, and then told the maids, "The leader is drunk, you should prepare the food and go back to rest early. You don't need to serve him at night."
The maids bowed their heads, responded, and retreated respectfully.
Nan Yan handed the badge to Murong Tuo who was waiting in another small room at the agreed time. This fellow disciple had also been waiting here for a long time. The three of them agreed to rescue people tonight. Zhao Xiuyan would stay here as a hostage, and Murong Tuo would go to the underground palace alone to rescue people. With the token and warrant of the leader, as well as a set of Xuan Cang sect clothes, if he disguised himself as a subordinate of the leader and sneaked into the underground palace, there would basically not be too many obstacles.
When Nan Yan handed the things to Murong Tuo, she couldn't help but remind him, "You have to move quickly and don't act rashly, understand? Also, unless it's a critical moment, you must not harm our Xuan Cang Sect's subordinates, otherwise it will be a breach of promise, and I will hurt your brother in return."
Hearing this man speak in a depressed tone, Zhao Xiuyan's eyebrows twitched slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up. He was as good-tempered as ever, without any sign of being angry.
On the contrary, the junior brother who was already waiting on the side was already a little impatient. Hearing this, he snorted in annoyance, "I know, I know. You are so nagging. If someone doesn't know, they would think you are my senior brother. Why are you talking so much nonsense!"
He turned to leave, but couldn't help but turned back to glare at the man, "Hey, you have to be honest with me. I won't hurt anyone in your Xuan Cang Sect, and you are not allowed to harm my brother."
The two looked at each other, snorted coldly, and then turned their faces away and refused to pay attention to each other.
The corners of Murong Tuo's mouth twitched unconsciously. He didn't know if it was because he was going to meet Sister Pianpian, so his mood became uncontrollably excited.
I saw the figure stepping on the tree branches and jumping up, quickly jumping over the courtyard wall, and then heading towards the direction of the underground palace.
As that person left, the room instantly became quiet.
Zhao Xiuyan also breathed a sigh of relief, his brows relaxed, and he sat on a chair beside him. His eyes unconsciously fell on Nan Yan, who was walking back and forth in the room with a slightly nervous and pale face.
Seeing her so anxious and worried, Zhao Xiuyan couldn't help but smile. He didn't expect that this girl was more worried about whether things could succeed than they were. But it was no wonder. She loved her husband so much that she probably didn't want anyone to come between them.
Seeing the girl still walking gently back and forth, Zhao Xiuyan suddenly called out her name.
"You don't have to be so nervous, girl. Why don't you sit down, have a cup of tea and relax a little? You've been busy all night, and you'll be very tired if you keep being so tense."
Nan Yan was startled when she heard the voice and turned to look at him.
Zhao Xiuyan was also looking at her quietly. His eyes were gentle without any unnecessary emotions, and his tone was neither hurried nor slow.
This tone of voice is very soothing.
Sure enough, after hearing what he said, Nan Yan also walked over and sat down on the chair next to him, then asked, "Aren't you worried that your junior brother will be discovered?"
Zhao Xiuyan knew that this was not what she was worried about. He spoke in a calmer tone, comforting her, "Don't worry, young lady. If we are really discovered, everything that happened tonight will be borne by me and my junior brother. It has nothing to do with you. None of us brothers will leak any information about you."
Hearing this, Nan Yan seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief.
She raised her head and looked at the person next to her with some curiosity. Zhao Xiuyan's eyes met hers. He found that there was a hint of inquiry in the girl's eyes, but it was not annoying. Her eyes were always gentle and calm, just like her personality, gentle and pure.
Zhao Xiuyan slightly shifted his gaze to avoid her gaze, and then in order to divert her attention, he casually said, "The girl seems to like her husband very much."
Hearing him talking about her husband, Nan Yan was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to her senses and smiled unconsciously. This smile was filled with a hint of joy, and she said without hesitation,
"This is natural. My husband is different from others. He has suffered a lot in the past. I hope he can be happy instead of dwelling on the hatred of the past."
As she spoke, she turned her head and glanced at Zhao Xiuyan beside her. She couldn't help but chuckled and said, "Don't you care about your fiancée too? You're working hard to find a way to save her."
Zhao Xiuyan didn't expect the girl to say such a thing. He was stunned for a moment, and a smile slowly appeared on his face.
Perhaps because she mentioned her fiancée, Zhao Xiuyan's expression softened and relaxed.
Then he nodded and said, "Well, you are right, it is true. We both have people we care about, otherwise we would not have met here."
As he said this, he suddenly took out a small jade box from his arms and handed it to her with a gentle expression, "By the way, I see that your fingers seem to have some burn marks. This medicine is also for healing, and it is very effective. I'm giving it to you as a thank you for helping us this time."
Nan Yan pursed her lips and smiled gently at the man. Although her smile was still gentle and pure, that gentleness was not as dependent and trusting as when she was facing her husband.
She shook her head and said, "No, it's not a serious injury. Besides, my husband has already applied medicine for me. It will be healed in a few days."
Zhao Xiuyan was not annoyed by being rejected. His eyes were still on her fingers. He raised his eyelids slightly and said in a calm tone, "Take it. Just consider it as a compensation from us brothers. After we rescue Pian Pian, we will leave completely and we will never see each other again. Compared with the help you have given, these things are really not worth mentioning."
After hearing what he said, it seemed inappropriate for Nan Yan to refuse. There seemed to be a hint of hesitation in her eyes, but in the end she still reached out to take it.
When he stretched out his fingers, he accidentally touched the other person's fingertips. It seemed unintentional, and the soft touch like cotton wool disappeared from his fingertips as soon as it touched.
This made Zhao Xiuyan pause and his fingers curled up slightly, but Nan Yan seemed not to notice and put the square little box into her arms.
Seeing the man's hand quickly lowered, Nan Yan thought of the bite on his wrist before, and suddenly she felt uncomfortable and apologetic. So she raised her head, looked at him with a slightly red face and said, "Um...is the wound on your wrist healed? Does it still hurt? I was too impulsive that day and bit him too hard. I'm sorry..."
Nan Yan bit her lip, and there seemed to be some regret in her eyes. Perhaps she thought of the scene that day again, and her cheeks turned red uncontrollably.
Zhao Xiuyan paused for a moment, and seeing that she was staring at his wrist, he smiled and said comfortingly, "It's been healed for a long time."
Thinking back to what happened that day, the dilemma caused by a combination of reasons, even if he was calm, he felt a little hot in his ears. He turned his face away and said uncomfortably, "This matter is not your fault. It was my and my fault. In that situation, you could have killed us directly. How could I ask you to apologize to us? I'm sorry."
The atmosphere in the house became quiet again.
It was so quiet that one could almost hear the candles burning on the copper stand. Occasionally, a night breeze blew past the window, and the leaves on the trees rustled in the breeze.
Neither of them spoke again, nor did they look at each other. They just felt that at that moment, the atmosphere seemed to become a little subtle, as if the air had become silent and awkward.
Just when the two were hesitating about what to say, at this moment, a light sound suddenly came from outside, which was the sound they had agreed on before.
Everyone in the room looked at each other and smiled subconsciously. This was a sign of success, indicating that Murong Tuo successfully rescued the people.
Nan Yan showed a surprised smile on her face and subconsciously walked a few steps towards the window. Although she couldn't see anyone outside, she guessed that Murong Tuo must have encountered something and left with his people early.
Zhao Xiuyan, who was standing behind him, glanced at Nan Yan standing at the window, then heaved a sigh of relief, his brows slightly relaxed, and then he walked forward and said with a smile,
"Can I leave now?"
Nan Yan turned around subconsciously when she heard the voice. Seeing the gentle and picturesque face of the man behind her, she couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled, "Okay, you and your junior brother should quickly take your fiancée back with you. It's best if you get married soon after you return. I wish you two will live together forever, and it's best if you never appear in front of me and my husband again."
Zhao Xiuyan shook his head and laughed, looking at this person with a slight gleam in his eyes and an undisguised expression of joy and anxiety on his face. He wondered if he had thought that the person he was getting married was her.
He also responded casually,
"Okay, thank you for your blessing."
He turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly he felt someone pulling his sleeve from behind.
Zhao Xiuyan turned around in confusion and looked at the person behind him.
"Hey, wait a minute, I almost forgot." Nan Yan grabbed the other person's sleeve tightly with one hand, then hurriedly took out a small bottle from her arms and handed it over.
"By the way, please help me bring this bottle of ointment to your bad-tempered junior brother. Just say that I am magnanimous and have forgiven his past mistakes. This medicine is my way of making up for him being stepped on that day. And..."
When she said the latter sentence, her expression seemed to become much more serious and cautious. Her eyes were as gentle as water, her lips were rosy and gently pursed. Under the cold moonlight, the corners of her eyes were slightly raised, which seemed to add a touch of beauty and charm.
Zhao Xiuyan was distracted for a moment by the look in his eyes. He pinched his fingertips slightly to come back to his senses. Then he heard the other party say, "I can only help you this time. If you encounter any troubles in the future, I won't be able to help you."
Nan Yan smiled and said, "Also, remember to stay away. I will try my best to cover up what happened to my husband. Don't come back again."
Zhao Xiuyan looked at the bottle of ointment that she had stuffed into his hand. It seemed to still have the residual warmth of her palm on it.
For a moment, I felt a strange feeling in my heart.
He held the medicine bottle in his hand, then said "hmm", looked up at the girl in front of him and said, "Thank you, I will protect my fiancée from now on and will not let her have any relationship with your husband, don't worry."
Nan Yan seemed to be relieved after hearing this assurance, and a sincere smile appeared in her eyes. She added, "Also, as a senior brother, you should at least keep a close eye on your not-so-smart junior brother, so that he won't always rely on his martial arts status to bully a weak woman like me."
Zhao Xiuyan couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. He nodded at the other party and said, "Okay, I understand."
After saying this, Zhao Xiuyan turned around and was about to leave. He stepped on the table and used the force to jump directly onto the wall. He didn't know what he thought of, but he turned his head and took another look.
The night breeze was slightly cool, blowing through the treetops, making people's hair flutter gently, and falling on people's bodies with a hint of coolness.
Nan Yan was stretching out her hand to close the window, but she didn't seem to expect Zhao Xiuyan to turn around and look at her. After a moment of silence, a gentle smile appeared on her face.
Zhao Xiuyan turned his eyes away uncomfortably, thinking to himself that after this separation, they probably wouldn't have the chance to meet again in this life. He didn't know why, but the scene of their meeting that day suddenly emerged in his mind. At that time, she seemed to be standing in front of the window closing it.
This time, it's exactly the same as before.
Zhao Xiuyan was in a daze for a moment, then his expression gradually relaxed as he thought about the fact that his junior fellow apprentice had already rescued his fiancée.
After exhaling lightly, he pushed all these unimportant things deep into his heart, then leaped forward and disappeared completely into the night.
Nan Yan looked out the window at the quiet and deep night, and the smile on her face instantly faded.
Well, that’s good. She hid the hero’s secret and let his ex-fiancee run away. Who knows how the hero will treat her when he wakes up?
It looks like we'll see each other again soon.
Tsk tsk!
Nan Yan lowered her head and thought about it. She had to think carefully about how to harm the other two people as a victim.
On the other side, after a night of sleep.
After Yu Liuyun woke up, he felt his head was groggy and a little uncomfortable, as if he had a hangover. There was a sore and swollen pain on both sides of his temples, and he felt top-heavy.
Yu Liuyun frowned and rubbed his temples with two slender fingers. He was not completely sober at first and thought he was drunk last night.
He vaguely recalled the scene of last night in his mind, and a few familiar fragments emerged vaguely. It seemed that Yanyan poured him a few glasses of wine, he drank it, and then became a little drunk.
But when did his alcohol tolerance become so poor?
Just a few glasses of pear blossom wine?
This feeling was a little bit wrong. Yu Liuyun instinctively felt that something was wrong, but his mind was still a little confused at the moment, and his thoughts could not keep up with the body's instinctive reaction.
What did he do next? Yu Liuyun thought carefully about what happened last night. He remembered that he seemed to pull Yanyan into his arms and wanted to kiss her, but then...
Suddenly, Yu Liuyun seemed to have thought of something, his eyes opened calmly, his eyes were like a deep pool without any ripples, he reached for his waist casually, all his clothes were taken off, he raised his eyes to look at the screen in the room, walked over and looked through it.
The token that my wife returned two days ago was still hanging on my belt intact, as if nothing had changed.
But Yu Liuyun instinctively felt that something was wrong. He clenched his fingers tightly, and when he thought of a certain result, the dark emotions in his eyes almost condensed into substance. He immediately asked people to go to the underground palace to check it out, and then got the news that Lin Pianran, who was originally imprisoned in the underground palace, had indeed disappeared.
Oh, how could a living person suddenly disappear? Someone must have taken her away.
And that person was really capable, being able to take the person away without him noticing.
There should be more than one person, right?
Thinking of this, Yu Liuyun's expression suddenly turned cold, and the badge in his hand was almost crushed by him.
He suddenly thought of how drunk he was last night. His alcohol tolerance had never been so poor before.
So, was the person behind this conspiracy his wife? Because no one else could get close to him, not to mention that he only ate the food she handed over last night.
Yu Liuyun's eyes turned colder. Considering the symptoms he had when he woke up this morning...
Yanyan, should you have given him medicine last night?
So, did his wife actually team up with outsiders to betray him?
The blood color on Yu Liuyun's lips turned extremely pale. Thinking of this result, his originally dark eyes suddenly showed a hint of cold and sinister light, which made people's hair stand on end for no reason.
Good, very good!
