Chapter 50: Stopping the Water

When Li Xuan came in, Xi Yan was leaning on the bed and drinking medicine. Her face was still not good, and her little face, which was too pale and emaciated, added a bit of morbid beauty. When Xiyan saw him at first glance, his little hand trembled subconsciously, and the medicinal juice couldn't help but shake in his hand.

Chunxue and Xiashuang saluted Li Xuan, hurriedly took the bowl, and wiped the residual juice on her hands.

"Out of the way." Xiyan smiled reluctantly and got up to get out of bed.

"Don't get up." He had strode forward and pressed her, and sat down beside her. "Are you feeling better?"

"It's all right," Xiyan lowered her eyes and replied obediently. "Let the prince worry."

"Stand down." Li Xuan couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw that the spring snow and summer frost were still standing on both sides. He had always disliked the fact that the two of them were disturbed by others when they were together, and they should have known about it.

The two looked at Xiyan uneasily, and saw that her expression was indifferent, so they had to retire with a blessing to the two.

The room was eerily quiet for a while.

"Xiyan, I-" The words of apology were finally spoken, and they were quickly interrupted by Xiyan.

"It's okay." She looked up, smiled faintly at him, and said softly, "I know what you're going to say. Needless to say...... It's okay. ”

"Xiyan, it's me who is bad," he took her hand, "I shouldn't have treated you like that day, still ...... Said a lot of bastard things, believe me, that's not ...... Not my true words. ”

“…… What did you say? Xiyan looked at him with a pair of big misty eyes, "I don't remember much." I was in a terrible pain, and I couldn't hear it very clearly...... Is there anything that matters? ”

"No, there's nothing ......" he didn't know how to answer for a while, but he didn't dare to look at her, "It's me who is not good, you hurt like that, I didn't even notice it, I-"

"yes, it hurts...... she said, her eyes glazed over, her expression dazed, "it really hurts." It hurt so much that I thought I was going to die......" Her body trembled uncontrollably, and it took a while to come to her senses and smile apologetically at him. "Actually, I'm so stupid, how can people die of pain? OK...... It's all gone......" she looked at him and said slowly, "Lord Wang, it's all over." ”

"Xiyan-"

"If you don't have anything else," she said, she bowed her head, "I want to rest, okay?" ”

"Good......" he gave her a difficult look. Rest well, I'll come back to see you another day. ”

"Xie Wang Ye is compassionate.5./books/21/21060/

Leisurely peasant girl. She lay down with her back to him, tears silently rolling down her eyes.

He sat silently for a few more moments before he sighed and turned to leave.

……………………

He didn't expect them to see each other again. He thought of her tears, thought of her forbearance and grief, and even thought of her sneering and-for-tat, but he didn't expect her to be like this, her heart was like water, and she had no complaints.

"It's all gone." Thinking of her calm and breezy tone, there was an inexplicable panic in his heart. He didn't know if what had become the past also included her heart that once wanted to get close to him a little?

After recuperating for more than a month, Xiyan's body gradually improved. On the tenth day of Xiaoyue, her worst fear still came.

Before dinner that day, Li Xuan suddenly sent someone to say that he would spend the night in Chenxi Pavilion tonight. During this time, he didn't come, but every time he came to sit with her for a while, he never stayed overnight. Now he came to inform her with great fanfare...... Xiyan didn't know what other families with three wives and four concubines were like, anyway, before, Li Xuan would never tell her this in advance. Now that she has said it, it is natural to let her prepare early. But what could she prepare? He likes her "tone of wanting to refuse and welcome", so should she repeat her old tricks and let him continue to have fun with her? Or do nothing, just lie down on the bed, and toss as he wants? Either way, she didn't want to. Ever since she knew he was just toying with her, she didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore. But that's not what she can do. He's her husband, and as he said, as long as he's not tired of playing with her, she'll have to take it.

"Gege......" Chunxue said worriedly, "You ......"

"It's nothing," the look on Xi Yan's face was faint, and his tone was also light, "It's not that he hasn't been here before, how he used to do it, now he just needs to do it." ”

"How can it be the same?" Xia Shuang blurted out, "At that time, we thought he was sincere to you, but now ......"

"It's the same now." Xiyan calmly, word by word.

@@@@@@@@

Some things are one thing to say, but it's another thing to actually do them.

So when Li Xuan stood in front of her at this moment, staring at her with burning eyes, Xiyan instantly felt that all the preparations she had made in her heart before had been in vain - she didn't want to see him, and she hated him touching her.

"What's wrong?" Li Xuan visibly felt her stiffness, and reached out to hug her worriedly.

Xiyan couldn't help but take a step back.

Her rejection was so obvious that both of them were stunned for a moment.

Only then did Xiyan remember his "duty". She stepped forward again in a sneering manner, and said softly while unbuttoning his clothes with gentle movements, "Lord Wang, let Xiyan serve you." ”

"Xiyan ......" he looked at her again and again, pondered the wording in his heart, and asked carefully, "Now...... Okay? ”

"What's not to do," Xi Yan smiled faintly, her long eyelashes tucking the look in her eyes, "As long as the prince likes it." ”

"Xiyan-"

"Don't you want to?" Xiyan raised his face, hesitated slightly, and suddenly took the initiative to hook his neck. Just like when she was a child, every time they had a quarrel, she would pester him so affectionately, and said coquettishly in a slightly immature voice, "Brother Li Xuan, let's never quarrel again in the future, okay?" ”

Li Xuan's heart moved.

"Yes." He reached out and took her into his arms and buried his head in her neck, "Xiyan, these days...... I've been thinking about you......"
