Chapter 27: The Gambling Contract (2)
Without warning, he mentioned in front of her the person who made her finally let her thoughts settle down.
Lowering her eyes, questions slowly arose in her heart, and she didn't know how to respond to the man's so-called bet.
After a half-groan, Nangong Luo Jing dodged the blazing glare that the man threw at him.
"What do you mean by what the East King said?" she couldn't stand the troubles of doubt, she still asked, and the handsome face reflected in her eyes seemed to have a hint of incomprehensible mystery at the moment.
"Those assassins a few days ago, this king has been handed over to the King of the West" Lan Lingxuan turned around and said him casually, staring at Nangong Luojing's eyes at this moment had lost their usual indifferent smile, and there was a trace of incomprehensible brilliance in those eyes at this moment: "What will happen to the man in black and the man behind the scenes, it depends on the status of the queen in the heart of the King of the West."
As the footsteps behind him got closer and closer, Nangong Luojing's body shook unconsciously, and he couldn't tell what it felt, but fear seemed to slowly arise from a corner of his heart, and then occupied every corner of his body.
Lan Lingxuan was saying these words to herself, but she didn't understand the words in those words, which seemed to have a mystery that she didn't know.
"What does the Queen think the King of the West will do with those assassins" A playful smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and he stared at her back in a daze, imagining what kind of expression she had at the moment, but finding nothing.
The footsteps behind him gradually subsided, Nangong Luo Jing gathered his fingers into the palm of his hand, and said slowly after half a sound: "Dongwang has something to say, what does it mean to beat around the bush, is it possible that he wants to play a guessing game with Luo Jing."
"How can a smart queen not know what this king wants to say" The low voice fell in his ears, and at some point, Lan Lingxuan was already standing behind him, Nangong Luo Jing felt a heat in his waist, and at the right time, the soft silver hair seemed to be a little disobedient and raised with the wind, but the next moment, the body was held in his arms by a wide chest.
With his hands on her waist and his forehead resting on her head, it was the first time he had been so close to her since he had made her cry that day, and when he first touched this body, he could clearly feel how this body rejected his embrace, but she never struggled to break away from her embrace, and it all said something
The extremely familiar movements made the memories swell up like a tide, and Lan Lingxuan at this moment made Nangong Luo Jing want to leave this embrace quickly, but her feet were like a thousand pounds of weight, no matter what she did, she couldn't move, she didn't know why this happened.
Maybe it was the powerlessness in his heart, he seemed to be able to guess what he wanted to say, but she didn't want to admit it, and let the countless guesses in her heart be suppressed in her heart, and she didn't dare to think about it.
"Dongwang seems to be a little nosy" turned into an indifferent voice, which happened to be within Lan Lingxuan's expectations.
"It's not the king to be nosy, the king is looking for a way back for the queen, doesn't the queen feel the heart of the king" The intertwined body got closer, and there was a balanced rise and fall on his chest due to breathing, and he buried his head in the soft place with a faint fragrance, and his eyes were sometimes cold, complex and blurry.
"These words, it turns out that they can be said so high-sounding, Dongwang can really be said to have opened Luo Jing's eyes today" Nangong Luo Jing evoked a sneer, and forcibly suppressed the heart rhythm in her chest that had become a little fluctuating because of hearing those words, only to feel the pain coming from the palm of her hand made her bite her lip, until a trace of blood appeared on her lip flap, and she didn't even feel pain.
As if sensing that she was hurting herself, his half-closed eyes slowly opened, and through the side face, he saw a little bit of scarlet that appeared from the bite of the shell teeth, like a blooming red lotus, exuding an incomparably bewitching and incomparably moving color.
"Good, don't bite anymore, don't bite anymore" It's just that at this moment, the enchantment made him feel a little painful, and it was difficult to contain it, so it became a disaster.
Softly soothing the person in his arms, all the words he wanted to say in his heart, he couldn't bear to say it at this moment, just like the incomparably heavy feeling her tears brought to him that day, he couldn't bear her to treat himself like this.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly fell silent, and a quiet aura lingered between the two intertwined bodies.
After a long time, she heard two light and inaudible sighs, Nangong Luo Jing took a deep breath, and in the shortest time, she adjusted her emotions back: "What does the East King want Luo Jing to use as a bet on this bet" In the weak voice, she has long been unable to find a way out, how to get out of the trap she set for herself.
"From beginning to end, what this king wants is only you, but you know" in a low voice, he affectionately poured out his feelings for this woman for more than a year, and he did so many things, just for her, in order to get her.
"For Nangong Luo Jing" she repeated the sentence ringing in her ears weakly, and there was a bit of a ridiculous feeling in her heart: "The East King is really too much to promote Luo Jing, Luo Jing is just an ordinary woman, presumably what the East King wants is something else" For example: This world.
How indifferently she said this sentence with the meaning of the words, her heart was already numb.
Really, she is just an ordinary woman, she is like all women in the world, she just wants someone to treat herself sincerely, she found it, but the truth is that the person's heart is too broad, he gave her the best in the world, but did not give her enough love.
Sometimes, she hates, she resents, but she also admits it, some things are certain, and it is difficult to change, until she mustered up the courage to leave Feng Yihan, she found that she was more confused and wavering than she imagined.
Something else he wanted, her voice repeated in his heart over and over again, chewing, he never came up with a reason, he thought she understood, didn't his mind express it clearly enough, she would think that he had other plans.
It's ridiculous, ridiculous
A sentence caused the two people to ponder, and neither of them said anything, but they each thought quietly.
"Who is the mastermind behind that group of assassins, the queen should know better than anyone else" Yin Dun, Lan Lingxuan played with the hair in his hand round and round, and the fog in his eyes made him almost lost: "However, the current identity of the behind-the-scenes commander is not the person who moved the king of the west, I believe the queen knows better than anyone else in her heart, right?"
The words that Lan Lingxuan had dropped in his ears were like deadly poison, and the pain of eating bones eroded his whole body in an instant.
"She" was stunned for a moment before she found her voice: "What should the East King say about this, Luo Jing really doesn't know" She smiled, but what she saw in her eyes was full of desolation, she knew that she should know what the person behind the scenes was Situ Yuli, her identity was the righteous daughter of the King of the South, and the princess of the Southern Kingdom who sent Xiling to Xiling, this is everything she knows in her heart, what else she doesn't know.
There was a bit of surprise in her beautiful eyes, Lan Lingxuan never thought that she would know nothing about Feng Yihan.
Furrowing his brow, he struggled whether he should say it himself, when in fact, he really wanted to say it.
When he raised his eyes, he saw a glimmer of gloomy brilliance in his eyes, which disturbed his heart and panicked.
"I really don't know anything," asked a little cautiously, and Lan Lingxuan's frowning brows couldn't help but tighten even tighter.
It's just that before he finished struggling, the woman's soft voice with a hint of decadence sounded in his ears: "For all this, Luo Jing is like an outsider, it seems to be related, but everything has nothing to do with Luo Jing, Dongwang thinks so" How much courage it takes for a person to admit that he is a senseless person, but she Nangong Luo Jing can talk about her weaknesses as if nothing happened, it doesn't matter: "Since everything has nothing to do with Luo Jing, there is no need to start this bet, and the wishful thinking of the East King seems to have been wrong"
Hollow, she couldn't see anything in her eyes, she just knew that what she wanted now was to get out of here, to get away from everything that had to do with it, and never bother again.
"Nangong Luojing, everything is because of you, you can say so easily that everything has nothing to do with you, cruel, extreme cruelty" His face was cold, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a few mocking smiles, he didn't know if he was laughing at himself or laughing at her evasion, he had already been confused.
The meaning of Dongwang's words is to still follow the original intention in his heart, and want to carry out the gambling contract" The voice fell, and she only felt even more empty.
"Yes" replied without a hint of delay.
"That's good, Luo Jing is willing to accompany" It doesn't matter, what else does she feel is so-called now, she really can't think of it: "It's just, for some reason, before the gambling contract started, Luo Jing already had a premonition of losing" pulled out a smile, she turned her head to stare at the faint sun outside the window, time flies, this day will pass in a hurry, just like that heart, it seems to be getting farther and farther away from herself, and she wants to catch it but can't catch it.
"I believe that the king will not take Luo Jing seriously, right" She smiled, swallowed the bitterness fiercely in her abdomen, and the corners of her raised mouth appeared a beautiful arc on her fair face.
When the words fell, he couldn't hear a trace of emotion, but Lan Lingxuan heard the meaninglessness and loneliness in that timbre.
"Hmm" replied lightly, but he couldn't think of what kind of tone to use to respond to the gloom and loss in those words.
...
