Chapter 152
Yu Liuyun fell asleep in Nan Yan's yard all night last night. He didn't know when he fell asleep. When fragrance he woke up, he heard the deliberately light footsteps in the house and smelled the fresh and elegant left on the quilt. He seemed to see a slender and soft figure walking towards him in a trance.
Yu Liuyun woke up instantly, and then subconsciously called out to that person, "Yan Yan..."
However, when they lifted the quilt, they saw only a pale-faced maid coming in with hot water, followed by another one with a food box in her hand. The two maids were so scared that they trembled and almost spilled the hot water in their hands.
"I, this servant deserves death. I thought the leader had already woken up and disturbed his rest. Please forgive me, leader."
The maidservant was trembling and almost knelt down. The leader was in a very bad mood recently, and anyone who offended or touched the leader's bottom line would not have a good ending.
Ever since the madam was sent away, everyone in the sect has been worried about their own safety, fearing that they would be the next. There is no one in the sect who can persuade the leader anymore, and the maids and subordinates who serve the leader are even more worried. The leader was so cruel and heartless to the madam, let him alone treating them, the servants?
Zhu Liuyun frowned. He felt an inexplicable disappointment and emptiness in his heart when he saw the wrong person. He immediately said coldly, "Who let you in..."
The little maid's wrist felt a little sore from holding the hot water. When she heard the leader's cold tone, she immediately replied tremblingly, "Master, have you forgotten? Usually at this time, the master would get up in the morning, wash up, and then practice martial arts."
"In the past, my wife was always worried that the leader would not eat well and take good care of his body, so she would get up early every morning and ask someone to go to the kitchen to make some breakfast that suited the leader's taste and then send it to him..."
The maid lowered her head with a hint of fear on her face, and her voice became lower and lower. "These servants have already developed a habit, and the leader has also developed a habit. Even if the madam is not here, the servants dare not slack off in order not to delay the leader's practice."
After saying this, the maidservant did not dare to raise her head at will, and still kept her head down obediently, for fear that she would be disliked by the leader and thrown out for her life.
When Yu Liuyun heard these words, he was inexplicably stunned. He looked at the food box in the maid's hand behind him, which was the same one that Yanyan had always carried in the past. In a trance, he recalled the things that happened between the two of them in the past.
In the past, he had always been cold towards his wife, and the two of them did not interfere with each other, just like water in a well. But since that time, Yanyan began to approach him cautiously and actively.
She was such a gentle and reserved person, she wouldn't have taken the initiative if she didn't really care about him. His previous impression of his wife was just a vague impression of a quiet and gentle person, but after getting along with her, he realized that his wife was actually a very delicate person. It was such a delicate person, but she made so many changes for him.
She was concerned about his health and would mend his clothes. Like all wives, she was concerned about her husband's poor appetite. I don't know where she got the information from, but she asked people to take the trouble to prepare Qingzhou City dishes for him...
She was a gentle woman who had been pampered for more than ten years, but she used almost all her patience on him alone.
Thinking of the past, Yu Liuyun suddenly felt a sour and swollen feeling in his eyes, as if something was about to burst out.
He subconsciously looked towards the place beside the table where she used to sit. They used to sit together to eat. She would smile and pick up food for him, asking him if it was delicious. She would gently straighten his messy clothes, and sit on the swing and look at him tenderly with a smile...
But now...it's all gone.
Thinking of the past, Yu Liuyun had no appetite to eat. He couldn't concentrate on doing anything now. Every day he didn't find her and bring her back safely, the more nervous and uneasy he felt.
The subordinate came back that day to report that the two men had rescued Yanyan, but where did they take Yanyan?
Why didn't the two come to Xuancang Sect to look for him even though he had withdrawn the wanted order? Why couldn't he find any trace of them anywhere? What were they doing?
Would they vent all their hatred towards Yanyan because of their resentment towards him? Would they hurt her? Would they bully her? What should I do? What should I do?
The more Yu Liuyun thought about it, the deeper the torment in his heart became. In the end, even his eyes began to turn bloodshot due to the pain. He felt as if his chest was being suddenly tightened by something, and a suffocating tightness came from his chest.
Actually, when he thinks back now, what she did is nothing compared to what he did in private. He was really angry at the time, and was so angry that he felt that no one in this world who betrayed him in this life could be forgiven!
But... he seemed to have forgotten that as a husband, he had never given his wife a sense of security, and had never fulfilled his responsibilities and obligations as a husband. She would be sad, would hide things, and would not believe him. All of this was caused by him.
He was entangled with his former fiancée, secretly hid her in the underground palace, and even brazenly forced her to marry him. When doing all this, he never thought about his wife. He did so many stupid things, so many excessive things, and took advantage of her gentle nature to deceive her recklessly. But she only deceived him once, and just this time, what on earth did he have the right to treat her like that?
If it were him...
Thinking of this, Yu Liuyun felt as if his chest was being slowly pulled and torn by a blunt knife, causing his heart to bleed and he was in extreme pain.
The endless regret and panic came over him like an icy tide, just like when he accidentally fell into the water when he was young and was covered by the surging waves, pressed into the cold water. The suffocating and piercing feeling of palpitations made him feel deeply powerless and despaired.
What to do? What should he do?
Just when Yu Liuyun was in endless panic, news finally came from his subordinates outside, saying that when they were searching in the direction of Qingzhou City, they saw the two rebels and his wife, and that the two men seemed to be taking his wife back to Qingzhou.
Upon hearing the news, Yu Liuyun's eyes instantly showed some vicious bloodshot, and at the same time, a hint of gloom emerged in his eyes, and he clenched his hands suddenly.
In an instant, he suppressed all the emotions on his face, then turned around and stared expressionlessly at the person kneeling on the ground reporting the news, "Say it again, are you sure they want to take Madam back to Qingzhou?"
The subordinate kneeling on the ground nodded quickly and replied tremblingly, "We are not mistaken. The direction they are going to wipe out their traces is the direction of Qingzhou City. Madam... Madam must have been captured by them and cannot escape at all."
Qingzhou City... After going around in circles, they finally decided to go back to Qingzhou.
Although Yu Liuyun didn't know why they brought his wife back to Qingzhou, now that he finally knew her whereabouts, he couldn't just ignore it.
That was his wife. No matter where she was taken by others or what kind of injustice she suffered, he would bring her back safely and seek justice for her.
Thinking of this, Yu Liuyun turned his head and stared at the person kneeling on the ground, "Hurry up and give orders. I will take people to Qingzhou City. No matter what, I must bring my wife back safely. Also, you must bring that woman with you."
Zhao Xiuyan, you'd better be honest and not hurt a hair on Yanyan, otherwise I will never let your fiancée go!
After making this decision, Yu Liuyun immediately waved his hand and asked the subordinate who reported the news to go down and prepare to set off. But even after making such a decision, he was still very uneasy at the moment. An inexplicable panic and anxiety surged in his heart, making it impossible for him to calm down.
He had no idea what they would do to her?
Why take her to Qingzhou?
What on earth had they done to her?
Yu Liuyun tried hard to suppress the inexplicable uneasiness in his chest. His heart seemed to be beating uncontrollably. He didn't even know what was wrong with him. Why was it like this?
In extreme anxiety and loss of control, he felt an inexplicable anger in his heart. How dare they take his wife away at will? In anger, he turned around and rushed directly into the remote courtyard where Lin Pianran lived.
He hadn't seen that woman for a long time. Ever since he came back that day, he had left her in the yard, leaving her to fend for herself.
Such a vain, selfish woman was not worthy of him marrying. He might have been blinded by hatred in the past. Because of the resentment, unwillingness, and anger after being humiliated by her, he actually wanted to renegotiate his engagement with her! Why on earth did he want to tie his life to such a woman?
He clearly has his own wife, and God has clearly treated him well. When he was in trouble and stuck in the mud, only his wife treated him sincerely, only she truly loved him and took care of him. Why on earth did he let everything get to this point just because of that resentment?
Yu Liuyun rushed into the courtyard and kicked the door open. The person inside was absent-mindedly looking at the courtyard outside. When he saw him, he looked surprised for a moment, then turned his head away with a look of obvious displeasure on his face. "Who asked you to come? What are you doing here?"
"You are not welcome here at all."
She seemed to treat this place as her own private residence, forgetting that she was now just a prisoner.
Yu Liuyun only felt a sense of ridicule in his heart.
As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Liuyun felt that the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed. He rushed over, grabbed the slender neck with both hands, and then pulled the person in front of him, saying in a cold and mocking tone,
"Have you forgotten where this is? This is not the residence of your Lin family. You are just a prisoner here. What qualifications do you have to discuss this with me?"
Yu Liuyun's action was sudden and he used considerable force. Lin Pianran felt the pain of suffocation almost instantly. She stared at the man in front of her with horror and panic.
"Yu Liuyun, what are you going crazy about?"
She had clearly been behaving herself this time and not provoking him, so why, why wouldn't he let her go?
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the corners of his eyes turn red, and he stared at her coldly, his hands tightening. "Yes, I'm crazy. I warn you, if your fiancé really dares to vent his anger on Yanyan and hurt her, I will never let you go. I will pay you back a thousand times for what he did to her."
When he thought about what Yanyan might encounter with those two people, Yu Liuyun felt that he could not control the murderous intent in his heart. He had never wanted to kill the man in front of him more soberly and resentfully than at this moment.
But not yet... He couldn't kill her yet.
Thinking of this, Yu Liuyun's eyes suddenly became even colder, and the strength in his hands subconsciously tightened. Lin Pianran felt that she was really about to suffocate at this moment.
For the first time, she felt the pain of death, the pain of being unable to breathe. Her heart seemed to be stabbed by countless needles and she couldn't breathe. Her hands instinctively began to slap his arms, "Let go, let go, Yu Liuyun, please let go..."
She had no idea what was going on. She had been locked up in the yard obediently for the past few days. What fiancé and Yanyan had to do with her?
Why did this lunatic come to her to vent his anger? Why did he vent his anger on her? She had no way to get out, and she had no idea what he meant by what he said.
Lin Pianran struggled hard with both hands and slapped his wrists, her mouth opening and closing, making a sound of difficulty.
"Yu Liuyun, what the hell are you talking about? I don't know anything at all, why are you treating me like this?"
Hearing this, the arc of Yu Liuyun's mouth turned even colder, "Because of what? Because you are Zhao Xiuyan's fiancée! Don't you know it? Well, then I will tell you that your good fiancé took the opportunity to kidnap my wife and took her back to Qingzhou City."
"I tell you, no matter what he did to my wife, when the time comes, I will take back any harm done to Yanyan from you without hesitation!"
Hearing this, Lin Pianran struggled even harder, grabbing his collar with both hands and pulling hard, her face flushed red, "Mad man, let go! Let me go!"
She couldn't help crying, and felt that the man in front of her was extremely shameless. "Why are you blaming me for the offense my fiancé has done to you? If you have the guts, go and settle the score with him. Are you still a man? Are you a coward who only vents his anger on women?"
Seeing that the woman still dared to be stubborn, Yu Liuyun pinched the neck of the person in front of him and suddenly revealed a trace of cold sarcasm in his eyes, "Why, you are a woman, so what? Do you think that I will let you go by saying such words? I have never been a good person, and I don't have any bad habits of not killing women. Now in this world, except Yanyan, there is no one I, Yu Liuyun, dare not kill."
As the two men argued, Lin Pianran felt her throat becoming more and more painful, so painful that her vision became blurred. She grabbed the man's collar tightly, and her nails almost dug into his flesh.
The fear in her eyes grew deeper and deeper. "Let go, let me go, Yu Liuyun, are you really going to kill me? Have you forgotten what your aunt said to you before?"
When people face the fear of death, they will really try their best and do everything they can to survive. This is an instinct for survival.
Lin Pianran is like this at the moment. She no longer cares about her former stubbornness, nor does she care that the man in front of her was just a poor beggar in her eyes. When facing this kind of suffocating pain, she can't control her fear.
Only then did she realize that when he had lost all his tolerance for her, she could no longer rely on that vague feeling to scold and disdain him as she did before. She simply did not have the courage to do such a thing again.
Her former arrogance, pride, disdain, and reckless ridicule and hurt were only because she knew that he would never be cruel to her.
Now that she had lost all those supports, when faced with his revenge, she was nothing more than a pitiful person begging for mercy.
She didn't know whether she was sad or felt wronged and sad because of the humiliating treatment she received from the man in front of her. She felt an inexplicable surge of regret and pain in her heart. She grabbed his collar with both hands. Why did things turn out like this?
He actually wanted to kill her.
After hearing what she said, Yu Liuyun was even more mocking in his heart. The young lady who had treated him like a beggar and humiliated him now had the nerve to mention his mother to him. How ridiculous! However, why did he cling to such a woman in the first place, and why did he want to fulfill his marriage contract with her?
What was so great about this woman that made him give up his wife, whom he had always been deeply attached to, for her?
Yu Liuyun stared coldly at the man in front of him.
He even felt confused at this moment. Why did he lose control and go crazy because of such a despicable woman?
What on earth was so good about her that he tolerated her time and again, yet was so cruel to his own wife?
…
Just when Lin Pianran thought that she might really be strangled to death by this man, the man in front of her suddenly exerted force and threw her onto the table next to her.
The huge impact force caused Lin Pianran's entire body to lean backward uncontrollably.
She accidentally bumped into the table beside her, and her whole body fell on the table, coughing violently. Her cheeks turned red and tears came out.
Because of this force, the collar of her clothes, which she had been holding tightly in her hand, was accidentally torn.
With a "hiss" sound, the dark black robe was torn into a long hole in an instant.
A strand of hair tied with a thin red rope slowly slipped out from the torn collar and fell to the ground, lightly and silently.
When Yu Liuyun saw the strand of hair suddenly falling from his collar, he was stunned for a moment. The fingers that were originally standing in the air moved slightly, as if they were a little stiff.
Why is there a piece of hair inside the clothes?
A thin red thread was wrapped around the end of his hair. That strand of hair was cut very neatly and curved into a crescent shape. It was originally hidden in the collar of his shirt, closest to his chest.
Yu Liuyun looked down at the robe on his body. There was a long slit in the dark black collar. The fine stitches were all torn apart, revealing the rough thread ends. It was because of this that he saw a strand of hair hidden inside.
He vaguely recalled that one time, there seemed to be a tear in his clothes. Because most of the clothes of people who practiced martial arts had tears, he did not care. Later, during breakfast, Yanyan saw the torn robe and said that as a leader, he was still wearing such torn clothes, which would inevitably make people laugh, so she said she would help him sew it.
That day he was practicing sword in the yard, and she was sitting on the swing opposite him, holding a needle and thread in her hands, mending his clothes carefully and tenderly. The crabapple blossoms fluttered all over her body, and she sat under the tree holding the robe and smiling at him gently. That was the day he first fell in love with her.
But he never knew when she hid the strand of black hair tied with a red rope into his lapel.
The youth is tied together with a deep bond of friendship.
She had always loved him so deeply.
Yu Liuyun suddenly felt his eyes become a little dull and his vision became more and more blurred. At the same time, a cold wind blew inexplicably in his heart, getting colder and colder, so cold that his fingers trembled slightly. Then he bent down and picked up the long black hair.
Only between husband and wife can we get married...
The cool strands of hair curled around his palm and wrapped around his little fingers, just as her fingers had gently held his in the past.
An unprecedented regret suddenly surged in his heart.
He shouldn't have treated her like that, shouldn't have said such cruel words to her, and shouldn't have ignored her cries and sent her away without mercy.
They are husband and wife.
She was his wife, the wife he married in a formal ceremony. They had worshipped heaven and earth and the gods. They were a legitimate couple. He was her husband. He should protect her, love her, and treat her well all his life. What kind of grudge could not be resolved between husband and wife? How could he...how could he do such a cruel thing to her?
At this moment, endless regret and pain surged towards him like a tide. There had never been a more painful moment than now.
What to do? What should he do? He doesn't know what to do now.
I have never regretted it before...
Yu Liuyun left the yard almost in a panic. He pressed his long black hair tightly against his chest and returned to the yard with a pale face. He saw the empty swing under the tree, swaying gently in the wind. The crabapple tree was in bloom again, and the petals were falling in the breeze, just like before.
He looked at the bamboo swing under the tree. For a moment, he seemed to have some kind of hallucination. He saw Yanyan sitting under the crabapple tree as usual...
Holding her newly sewn clothes in her hands, she complained to the maid about how he accidentally tore the clothes again. At the same time, when she looked up and saw him, she couldn't help smiling at him. When she smiled, her eyebrows and eyes were gentle, like two crescent moons.
He subconsciously reached out his hand towards the tree, but the phantom disappeared. At that moment, an indescribable pain suddenly came from his chest, which quickly spread to his limbs.
The pain was as if countless steel needles were suddenly piercing the gaps between his bones, making him feel painful even when breathing.
He really regretted it.
He hurt the only person in the world who loved him, and he let down his wife, the person she loved most in her life.
He hurt her all over, and she left alone in despair. Thinking back on those words he said to her now, it was like a sharp knife cutting into his body and mind inch by inch, making his fingers tremble with pain.
He held the strand of hair in his palm carefully, fearing that it would be damaged in the slightest. Only now did he realize that he loved his wife more deeply than he thought.
But what to do? Is he still in time?
Will she forgive him?
Are you willing to give him another chance?
…
Meanwhile, in the inn on the other side, the atmosphere had been tense and depressing these past few days, but Nan Yan was not quite clear about this. After all, if the fish in the pond started fighting on their own, she would not care. They would just take a break after they finished fighting, and then she would go over and give them the final blow.
She has been lying in the house to rest for the past two days, living the life of a local tyrant, and being taken care of in every possible way.
Although she would occasionally pretend to resist and resist the other party's touch and approach, but since Zhao Xiuyan realized his feelings, his patience has obviously increased to a higher level than before, and he really treated her as his queen mother and served her.
It’s true that a gentle and considerate man is much more satisfying than a young boy who only knows how to talk back and argue with her.
Zhao Xiuyan has been making his presence felt in front of her these past few days. He takes care of all her food, clothing and other expenses. Seeing that she was in a bad mood and unwilling to talk, he patiently told her about the customs and culture of Qingzhou City. When he saw a hint of curiosity in her eyes, he would smile unconsciously and then tell her some interesting things.
Nan Yan hadn't expected that the effect of sleeping would be so obvious. She suddenly had an immature idea in her mind: if future tasks were also so easy, wouldn't that be...
But after thinking about it, she decided to give up. With the energy of these men, she was afraid that she might not be able to handle it.
How should I put it? It was probably because after the relationship between the two became close, this man obviously wanted to enter the house as soon as possible to confirm his status. After all, she is still a married woman.
Nan Yan thought that as a married woman, she would have to remain reserved for a few more days. It was impossible for her to forget everything that had happened so quickly and accept him without hesitation. Otherwise, it would be too inconsistent with her gentle and quiet personality.
Anyway, the veil between the two of them has been broken, and as for confirming their relationship, that is only a matter of time.
When she finally came out of the passenger station, two days had already passed outside. During these two days, there had been a strange silence between Zhao Xiuyan and Murong Tuo.
But after this blow, the junior fellow disciple has obviously become much more mature and stable than before.
The former junior brother was unbridled, with a precious long sword hanging from his waist, and his every move revealed an arrogant and willful aura. But now the junior brother is reserved and the sharpness in his eyes and eyebrows has been restrained a lot, making him seem less arrogant.
The sun was shining brightly outside, and the green-tiled roof of the first floor of the guest inn reflected the afternoon sunlight. The fine shadows swayed gently in the wind, and were reflected on Nan Yan's fair and clean face.
She had indeed been well taken care of these past two days, and her complexion was much rosier than when we first met. However, she still had to restrain herself and not let herself look like she was enjoying her role as a victim, although that was indeed the case.
So when Murong Tuo came up, he saw Nan Yan standing quietly beside the vermilion fence, and the lantern hanging under the eaves was swaying gently in the wind.
She just stood there quietly, her eyes were dull and her eyebrows slightly drooped, staring at the yard downstairs in a trance, as if she was looking at the crabapple tree. She seemed to be isolated from the world and cut off from everyone.
Murong Tuo deliberately entered her line of sight. When Nan Yan saw him, her eyes froze for a moment, then she lowered her eyes, trying hard to look like a victim.
When Murong Tuo saw her depressed look, he couldn't help but clench his fingers, then strode upstairs and walked straight towards her.
Nan Yan was forced to take a step back by the man's domineering aura. She was still wondering in her heart, would this boy say something so infuriating that he would not even spare her life, scolding her for being shameless and seducing his senior brother?
As a result, the man suddenly reached out and pulled her into his arms, holding the back of her head with one hand and tightly clasping her waist with the other hand, hugging her in a protective manner, with increasing force.
As for Nan Yan, her body suddenly became a little stiff the moment he hugged her, and she began to struggle uncomfortably.
Murong Tuo seemed to notice her stiff body, and he buried his handsome face gently in her neck. When she couldn't help but struggle hard, he suddenly whispered, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
"I didn't protect you well. When you were most helpless and scared, I didn't stay by your side to protect you. I used to bully you, scare you, and say those unpleasant things to make you angry. Yanyan, can you forgive me?"
Nan Yan was a little surprised. Didn't she expect this to be such a big stimulus to him? It was no wonder. After all, one was his senior brother and the other was a girl he had a crush on. They both dealt him a fatal blow at the same time. No wonder they both became much more mature.
After hearing what he said, Nan Yan's struggle seemed to slowly stop. She lowered her eyes slightly, and after a long while she spoke softly, "I thought you would blame me, blame me for seducing your senior brother, blame me for being shameless that night..."
Before she could finish her words, Murong Tuo's hold on her suddenly tightened.
Thinking of what happened that night, he felt as if a poisonous bee had stung his chest. The pain made him tremble all over. He spoke in a hoarse voice,
"No, it's not your fault... I don't blame you. Don't say that about yourself. How could it be your fault? You obviously don't know any martial arts. You can't... you can't escape at all..."
How could she possibly escape from her senior brother's control?
In that situation, how could she possibly escape?
She did nothing wrong from beginning to end.
The one who is wrong is the one who ignored her wishes and bullied her, the one who even tried to take her for himself!
Murong Tuo stroked Nan Yan's shoulders and patted her back. He had never comforted anyone before, so he could only imitate the way his mother comforted him when he was young. He stroked her hair and after comforting her for a while, he felt that the emotions of the person in his arms seemed to gradually calm down.
He suddenly let her go, then looked at her seriously and said, "Yanyan, I'll take you away, okay? Leave this place that makes you sad, forget everything that happened in the past, never see those who made you cry and sad, and never see those who bullied you. I'll take you far away, and we'll start over and live a peaceful and tranquil life, okay?"
This idea did not come to him suddenly, but he thought about it for a long time before coming up with it.
He has been immersed in the repressed and resentful mood these past two days and has been unable to find peace. He can't let go of Yanyan, and he doesn't want to just watch her being with his senior brother. He has finally fallen in love with such a girl, and this feeling is completely different from the way he felt towards Pianpian before.
He always thought that he liked Pianpian, but when he saw Pianpian with his senior brother, he never felt any pain or jealousy in his heart. He just felt that his senior brother had taken away his friend. After having his senior brother, Sister Pianpian no longer treated him wholeheartedly as before.
He would get angry, frustrated, and unwilling to accept it, but he never had the urge to kill his senior brother. But now it was different. That night, after understanding everything his senior brother had done to Yanyan, in addition to jealousy, he inevitably felt a murderous intent towards his senior brother.
He knew he shouldn't have such thoughts, but he just couldn't control himself.
Since he couldn't kill his senior brother, he could take Yanyan away, take her away from here, away from all those who had hurt her and made her sad.
Hearing this, Nan Yan seemed a little stunned.
After a while, she raised her eyes and looked at the man in front of her. From his eyes, she could tell that this man was absolutely sincere and not hypocritical at all.
However, the immature boy's way of thinking about solving the problem was indeed not very mature. He just took people away and didn't know how to squeeze out his senior brother and take the position himself?
There seemed to be a hint of hesitation in Nan Yan's eyes. She looked at the junior fellow student in front of her, her lips moved slightly, and she was about to speak.
But suddenly, Zhao Xiuyan's calm and gentle voice rang out from behind him, "Junior brother, where are you taking your fiancée? What happened? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"
The pair of calm black eyes looked over, reflecting a faint light under the fragmented sunlight, staring quietly at the two people not far away.
I heard a faint voice coming from behind.
Nan Yan's body suddenly stiffened.
She seemed to have thought of something embarrassing, and it was unclear whether she was afraid or nervous. Her eyelashes drooped slightly, and she stopped talking about what she was about to say.
Murong Tuo immediately looked back with a cold expression, and pulled the person beside him behind him, blocking her in a protective manner, and then stared at the senior brother in front of him with ridicule, "Why, senior brother, are you relying on your own ability to force her again in front of me?"
Hearing this, Zhao Xiuyan frowned slightly with some sensitivity, and his eyes fell on the woman behind him. Sure enough, he saw that her face was a little pale and her lips were tightly pursed.
He had not mentioned this matter in the past few days because he was worried that she would think of what happened that night and thus develop resistance towards him, but what his junior brother said did make him a little unhappy.
Zhao Xiuyan's tone was very calm, and his eyes turned to his junior brother, which was obviously a little cold. "I won't force her, junior brother, but this is a matter between Yanyan and me, and it is not your turn as a younger brother to intervene for the time being. You and I are brothers, and as a senior brother, I don't want to bully the weak, do anything excessive to you, or hurt your self-esteem."
"I will pretend that what happened today never happened. Before the relationship between Yanyan and I is sorted out, Junior Brother, please be more restrained and stop doing these things that cause trouble."
A junior brother is a junior brother. No matter how mature he appears, he is still impulsive and irritable at heart. Especially after hearing a few words from his senior brother, a look of anger flashes in his eyes.
Zhao Xiuyan looked calmly at the anger in his junior fellow apprentice's eyes.
"Can you give her back to me now?"
After that, he turned his gaze to Nan Yan again, looking at her with a gentle and peaceful look, without any coercion, "Yan Yan, come over here, okay?"
"You know I won't hurt you."
He stretched out his hand towards her, with a cloak draped over his wrist. He must have seen that she was not wearing enough clothes, so he came to find her with the cloak on. However, she did not expect to see her junior brother holding her in his arms, and she did not expect that her junior brother would even have the idea of taking her away with him.
To be honest, at that moment, Zhao Xiuyan felt a little nervous. Compared to him, the man who disregarded her wishes and forcibly destroyed her innocence, although his junior brother was a little impulsive, he had never done anything to hurt her or force her.
He was worried that she would agree to his suggestion, run away with him, and start over with him.
So when she hesitated and hadn't spoken yet, he couldn't help but interrupt her. He didn't want to hear any answer from her that might indicate she agreed.
