Chapter 185 Reunion
Seeing the whistle in Zhong Min's hand, Qin Ke couldn't help but smile knowingly, with indescribable joy and satisfaction on his face.
However, despite this, he still did not nod, and said with a smile: "There's no rush. I'll go with you first and see where they take you. Then I'll wait outside and not go in."
"Don't worry, Hero Qin. Master Wuyou will be at the first main house on the left in front soon. I guess he has a lot of things to do, so it will take some time. Please go to the guest room with me to have dinner and rest first." One of them said hurriedly when he saw this.
"Yes, Brother Qin, you should go to the guest room with them to rest first." Seeing this, Zhong Min had no choice but to say, "I'll come find you as soon as this is over. Anyway, it's getting late today, so we have to stay here for one night and can leave after daybreak. Don't worry, everything will be fine."
Zhong Min's repeated persuasion finally made Qin Ke nod. Actually, if there was any danger here, even if he stayed by Zhong Min's side, it would probably not be of much use. When they first entered, not only Zhong Min, but also he, had noticed how heavily guarded this villa, and indeed the entire Li Family Manor, was. Without their permission, outsiders had no way of getting in. Similarly, without their permission, those inside would have a hard time escaping even with wings.
This reminded him of the defenses deployed at Prince Mu's mansion in Muzhou, the new deployment after Zhong Min's adjustments. So, there must be some special reason for such high-level defenses. He seemed to have guessed something, but he didn't want to dwell on it.
After Qin Ke was taken to the guest room and settled in, Zhong Min followed him to meet the person she had come to see. She was already wondering who it was. Judging from the size of the place, he must be someone of high status. Could it be Luo Jiaxing?
Arriving in front of the house, the guide didn't go any further. Instead, he respectfully invited Zhong Min to go in on her own, and then he withdrew. Zhong Min looked around the outside of the house and found that although there didn't seem to be many people defending it, and the distance was not very close, she knew that there must be other security personnel in the dark. She was very familiar with this kind of defense, which she had taught Xie Feng before.
Being able to use such high-standard protection, it seems that the person inside is not Luo Jiaxing. Thinking of this, Zhong Min's heart suddenly felt an indescribable anticipation.
She quickly raised her hand and knocked on the door, but there was no response from anyone inside. She paused for a moment and knocked a few more times, but just like before, there was no response at all.
Suddenly, she was puzzled, reached out and pushed the door slightly, and the door quickly opened.
"Is anyone there?" The lights were on in the room, but there was still no sound. Zhong Min asked as she walked inside, unsure what was going on. There was no one in the outer room, so she looked around and walked back inside.
Suddenly, she stopped and sensitively felt that there seemed to be someone behind her. At this moment, the door outside suddenly creaked shut. Zhong Min turned around suddenly, but before she could see clearly, she fell into a familiar embrace.
In an instant, Xiao Mingzheng's tender face appeared in front of her, and he said softly: "Min'er, it's me."
Zhong Min was suddenly delighted and surprised, and was obviously very excited: "Ming Zheng, it's really you, why are you here suddenly?"
Before entering the house, she already had a vague feeling, but she was not sure. After all, both Muzhou and the capital were not peaceful places at the moment. Why would Xiao Mingzheng come to the capital in person for no reason?
"Min'er, let me hug you first." Xiao Mingzheng did not rush to answer Zhong Min's words, but hugged the person in his arms tightly, feeling that real sense of presence.
It had been almost half a year, and he had always wanted to hold her like this again, even without saying anything. Now, this girl was truly in his arms again, and Xiao Mingzheng felt indescribably happy.
Seeing this, Zhong Min said nothing more and obediently stuffed herself into his arms. His breath, his warmth, his scent all filled her, surrounding her, making her heart instantly calm.
At this moment, she no longer thought about anything, but just quietly felt this love. Even if everything turned upside down in the next second, she would have nothing to regret.
Be true to your heart. At least, she is happy and happy at this moment. She doesn't want to worry too much, at least not at this moment. This moment allows her to return to her heart in his arms.
The two of them hugged each other tightly, leaning on each other, and the room was filled with thick warmth, which was so inspiring.
Zhong Min didn't know how long it was before she felt herself go numb from standing there motionless. Xiao Mingzheng was much taller than her, and if she stayed in this position for too long, she would definitely be the first to give in. But she didn't want to ruin the atmosphere, so she had to endure it, hoping Xiao Mingzheng would let go first, but for a long time, he didn't react.
She finally couldn't help it, moved slightly, raised her head to look at Xiao Mingzheng, and said inappropriately: "Mingzheng, my feet are a little numb from standing..."
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little funny. Xiao Mingzheng couldn't help laughing, and then touched her cheek and said lovingly: "Well, I understand."
After saying that, he picked up Zhong Min and carried her horizontally to the couch beside him. "Lean back and rest for a while. I'll massage you."
Zhong Min did not refuse. She nodded with a smile on her face and said nothing. She just watched quietly as the man sitting next to her gently rubbed her legs.
She suddenly thought, if Xiao Mingzheng wasn't some prince or something, but just an ordinary person, how much better it would be. In that case, nothing like this or that would happen between them. Human desire is an extremely terrifying thing, especially when you have the ability to realize your desire, or are forced to do so. Often, many things can be sacrificed and given up.
Life is really too long. She doesn't know how long such a warm scene like the one now can last between them in the future, and what will happen when he stands at a higher and more lonely peak.
For the first time, Zhong Min discovered that she was actually quite timid, especially when it came to relationships. She loved when she loved, and didn't love when she didn't. She was so carefree, taking things as she pleased, letting them go when she pleased, without the slightest hesitation or entanglement. It seemed that this was only the state she was in before she truly fell in love. Once she did, how many people could be so decisive and steadfast?
She knew she would definitely ask that question today, but the moment she saw him, she felt strangely relieved. No matter what, she could see clearly that his love for her was not fake. At least, she admitted this point.
"Okay, it's okay." She said as she moved, trying to get down and sit down.
But Xiao Mingzheng changed his seat and sat next to her. He put his arm around her and said with a smile, "Min'er, did you miss me?"
Xiao Mingzheng didn't know why he asked such a question, but suddenly, like a child, he wanted to hear a positive answer from this girl. For so long, every letter he wrote to her never mentioned how much he missed her. He knew in his heart that she should be able to sense the longing. But this girl also didn't mention such a thing in her letters, imitating his example, always ending with a "take care", which made him want to hear her say it in person, as if to personally confirm it.
Hearing Xiao Mingzheng's words, Zhong Min couldn't help but smile. Since there was nothing to hide, he nodded and said, "I do!"
For a moment, Xiao Mingzheng's face blossomed, his radiant smile filled with happiness and satisfaction, overflowing without restraint. He was extremely happy. Just this one word was enough to offset the exhaustion of rushing around day and night.
"What are you doing here?" Zhong Min, also infected by Xiao Mingzheng's cheerful expression, took his hand and said, "There's so much going on in Muzhou, how could you spare the time? Besides, things are so unstable on both sides right now. It's too risky for you to come here so suddenly."
Xiao Mingzheng shook Zhong Min's hand, shook his head and said, "It's okay, I just passed by and came to see you."
"On your way? On your way?" Zhong Min asked in confusion, "Did something really happen?"
"Don't worry, I just went to Qingzhou in person a few days ago and reached some negotiations. On the way back, I just happened to come and see you." Xiao Mingzheng hurriedly explained, signaling Zhong Min not to worry.
"Qingzhou? It's quite far away from the capital, so how can it be considered on the way?" Zhong Min couldn't help laughing. Xiao Mingzheng's words were really exaggerated. It was obviously quite far away, and even the directions were not the same.
"I'm already out anyway, so a few more days won't matter." Xiao Mingzheng naturally knew that his excuse had been seen through by Zhong Min, and he couldn't help but laugh.
That's right, he missed her. So what? Not to mention that he was out at last, even if he stayed in Muzhou, he had been thinking about coming to the capital to see her since early in the morning.
After laughing, Zhong Min's heart was as clear as a mirror. He missed her, so he came to see her whether it was convenient or not. It would be a lie to say that he was unhappy about Xiao Mingzheng's behavior.
However, right now, she really couldn't help it. The more she saw him being so kind to her, the more anxious she became about the knot in her heart. She had originally thought that she didn't know when she would be able to meet him and have the chance to ask him about this matter, but she didn't expect that the opportunity would come so soon.
"Mingzheng, there's something I need to ask you." Without further hesitation, she went straight to Xiao Mingzheng and said, "No matter what, I hope you can tell me the truth and don't lie to me, okay?"
