Li Yuanyi and Li Yuanmu quickly asked, "What did Miss Yun say?"
Li Ping said, "Miss Yun said that fighting with one's back to the river is a good idea. When there is no way out, one can only forge ahead. She also said that sometimes, what is cut off is not only the retreat route, but also the pursuers!"
Li Yuanyi and Li Yuanmu's expressions changed slightly.
Clearly, Yun Chuwei knew about the landslide; otherwise, she wouldn't have said that.
Li Ping continued, "I prepared my explanation according to her instructions, and now it's finally coming in handy."
After Li Ping finished speaking, he saw that the army had already assembled.
So he went over and began to give a passionate speech.
The soldiers, who had been panicked by the collapse of their rear route, became highly motivated after hearing Li Ping's words.
The wavering morale of the troops was quickly rallied.
Zhang Gong smiled as he looked at the proud and spirited soldiers.
He turned to the Li brothers and asked, "Do you still think Miss Yun is useless?"
The image of that smiling, gentle yet aloof woman floated into Li Yuanmu's mind, and his heart stirred slightly.
He said in a low voice, "It seems it's my turn to deliver the toiletries to Miss Yun today. Mr. Zhang, brother, I'll go now!"
After saying that, he left in a hurry.
-
Yun Chuwei had already washed up.
As she changed her clothes, packed her things, and was about to leave the tent, she saw Xie Xuan walk in.
Xie Xuan was holding a bottle of medicine, which looked like wound medicine.
Yun Chuwei hurriedly asked, "Are you injured?"
Xie Xuan reached out and pointed to Yun Chuwei's shoulder, whispering, "It's for you!"
Yun Chuwei remembered something and said, "It's all over now."
Xie Xuan pulled her to sit on the futon, then said, "Let me take a look."
After saying that, he knelt down in front of Yun Chuwei, reached out and tugged at her clothes.
Yun Chuwei sat on the futon, her lower back relaxed against the edge of the low table.
She didn't stop him.
Her clothes were torn slightly, revealing Yun Chuwei's smooth and slender shoulders, and the bite wounds were also exposed to the air.
The wound has indeed healed.
Xie Xuan stretched out her slender fingers, dipped them in some medicine, and carefully applied it to the wound.
"This can heal wounds and remove scars," Xie Xuan said in a low voice.
"Hmm." Yun Chuwei felt a cool sensation on her shoulder and responded casually.
Just then, a person appeared at the entrance of the camp.
That was Li Yuanmu, carrying a bucket of water in his hand.
At this moment, Yun Chuwei did not see Li Yuanmu.
Because she was facing away from the tent entrance.
Xie Xuan, however, saw Li Yuanmu.
He knelt before Yun Chuwei, facing the tent.
His gaze passed over Yun Chuwei and the low table, meeting Li Yuanmu's eyes.
-
Li Yuanmu carried a small bucket of water, feeling lost and uncertain.
Along the way, he thought about how to explain to Yun Chuwei why he didn't come to see her last night.
He came up with many reasons, but rejected them many times.
He imagined many scenarios of what it would be like to see Yun Chuwei, but he never expected it to be like this.
He froze, unsure whether he should go in.
Xie Xuan easily caught the confusion, struggle, hesitation, and doubt in Li Yuanmu's eyes.
He knew all too well what that emotion was.
In his previous life, when he wanted to get closer to Yun Chuwei, this was probably how he prepared himself mentally.
Even when Li Yuanmu tried to seduce Weiwei before, he never looked at her like this.
Now, something seems different.
He took a deep breath, reached out and placed his hand on Yun Chuwei's slender waist, encircling her tightly. Then he leaned down and pressed his lips to Yun Chuwei's delicate shoulder.
The delicate and fragrant touch stirred his heart.
His breathing became disordered and he gasped for breath.
However, his gaze always passed over Yun Chuwei and the low table, meeting Li Yuanmu outside the tent, his eyes filled with provocative and contemptuous assertion of dominance.
Li Yuanmu practically fled in panic.
Yun Chuwei could clearly feel Xie Xuan's kiss on her shoulder, and the hot breath that brushed against her shoulder, which stirred up waves of pleasure.
Her heart skipped a beat, and her first instinct was to push him away.
However, she found that her waist was also restrained by him, and she was unable to exert any force.
"Xie Xuan, don't cause trouble!" Yun Chuwei warned through gritted teeth.
Xie Xuan tightened his embrace around Yun Chuwei, his lips brushing against her neck as he whispered, "Weiwei, I'm so scared! Can you let me hold you for a while?"
As his lips slid, Yun Chuwei's back trembled slightly.
After hearing his words, she couldn't bear to push him away.
She paused for a moment, then reached out and wrapped her arms around his head, asking softly, "What's wrong?"
"Last night I dreamt you were lying motionless on the jade bed. When I held you, I couldn't feel any warmth at all. Weiwei... I'm scared..."
He didn't dream about these things last night because she was in the next tent.
However, after his rebirth, he dreamed about it many times.
The woman in his arms was completely cold; the fear and panic seemed to have materialized.
He couldn't tell Yun Chuwei that he kissed her to make Li Yuanmu back down.
He could only talk about this dream.
Yun Chu was slightly taken aback, and the image of Xie Xuan holding her and committing suicide in her previous life flashed through her mind.
She reached out and gently stroked Xie Xuan's hair, asking softly, "Did Xie Sheng kill me? Did you not know I was dead, so you stormed into the palace to seek revenge? In the end, you killed Xie Sheng and Yun Lianhua, and saw my corpse?"
Xie Xuan suddenly released Yun Chuwei and stared at her in astonishment.
"How...how do you know so much?"
Yun Chuwei raised her hand, her fingertips tracing Xie Xuan's face, and whispered, "If I told you that I, like you, have also lived a second life, would you believe me?"
Xie Xuan looked at Yun Chuwei, his eyes filled with surprise.
"So, everything you said about the future was a lie? You know what happened in the past, right?" Xie Xuan asked, looking at Yun Chuwei.
Yun Chuwei grasped Xie Xuan's hand and nodded slightly: "I know most things."
Xie Xuan remained silent.
His mind is now filled with the thought that Yun Chuwei knows everything.
She knows everything; she's lying to him.
He reached out, brushed Yun Chuwei's hand away, and stood up.
He stood up, intending to turn and leave.
"Xie Xuan!" Yun Chuwei raised her voice and called out.
Xie Xuan stopped in his tracks, but he did not turn around.
"You dare to leave and try!" Yun Chuwei looked at Xie Xuan, her voice turning colder.
Her tone was full of threat.
Xie Xuan was taken aback.
After a long silence, he took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "I need some peace and quiet!"
"Be quiet here!" Yun Chuwei said slowly, "Come back!"
Xie Xuan simply stood there, motionless, and did not follow Yun Chuwei's instructions to walk back.
