Chapter 68: Is she feeling sorry for him?
"You want to see Su Rou?" didn't expect her to have such an idea, Gu Zhixing was slightly stunned.
"Yes." Su Mian nodded: "If I can, I want to talk to her, maybe I can avoid this ......"
"Mian." Gu Zhixing interrupted her a little helplessly: "Although I don't want to hit you, such an idea is indeed a bit naΓ―ve." β
Su Mian's eyes flickered for a moment, and he clenched his hand hidden in his long sleeves a little unwillingly.
I know it's naΓ―ve, but ......
Seeing that she stopped talking, Gu Zhixing was hard-hearted, and continued to speak: "Now you should be of no use to Su Rou, otherwise, she wouldn't have planned for so many years, and at this time, she would have put you to death." β
"Let's not talk about whether she is willing to talk to you or not, what I'm worried about is that as long as you appear near the Northern Yuan army, she will immediately send someone to arrest you and leave you alive."
Gu Zhixing's expression was as serious as he had never been, and he looked at Su Mian and said categorically: "So, no matter what, I won't let you put yourself in danger, not to mention that we have already agreed before we come out, you can't act without permission, you must stay in a place where I can see, okay?" β
In the end, Gu Zhixing's tone actually carried some childlike meaning, which made Su Mian cry and laugh a little.
After a moment of silence, she nodded: "Okay, I see." β
Seeing that she was obedient, Gu Zhixing breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
What he was most afraid of was that Su Mian had a stubborn temper in this matter, he didn't want to make her angry, and it was impossible to see her take risks.
Fortunately, Ah Mian listened to his words this time......
Worried that she was sitting alone and thinking nonsense, Gu Zhixing simply took people to Lu Zhe and the others to sit down.
The people who were in full swing who were originally talking about it were instantly silenced when they saw Su Mian sitting down.
"It's okay, continue to discuss, Ah Mian is not an outsider." Gu Zhixing said lightly, with a hint of imperceptible threat in his tone.
Several people were slightly stunned, and Lu Zhe hurriedly said: "Su Mian is naturally not an outsider, we were just discussing just now, I don't know if we can meet people from the Qingteng tribe all the way to the border." β
The Qingteng tribe is wandering at the border all the year round, living in no fixed place, all according to their hearts, and the clansmen are also unusually united, and they are friendly with the Western Sage.
Su Mian thought for a moment when she heard this, then turned her head to look at Gu Zhixing and asked, "Is the Qingteng clan the one you told me about that day?" β
"Yes." Gu Zhixing replied with a smile: "If you can really meet the Qingteng tribe, it will also be a good thing. β
"And where do they usually live?" Su Mian asked curiously.
There was a military general next to him who observed for a day, and saw that she was not like the old minister of the court said, she was the so-called demagogic Northern Yuan demon girl, but just a ...... Some fat but cute-looking ordinary girls smiled and explained to her: "The people of the Qingteng tribe have always had no fixed place to live and have no fixed place to live, but if they really meet, they are good friends with Xisheng all year round, and they are very hospitable, and maybe they can help a lot." β
"I see." Su Mian nodded in realization.
With the military general just now taking the lead, the others dared to talk to Su Mian, and the atmosphere was not as stiff as before.
After some more talk, someone came to report it.
"The tents of the prince and several generals have been set up, the prince's is in the north, and the generals' are in the west."
"Hmm." Gu Zhixing nodded lightly, and the person who reported it left.
After saying a few more words, Gu Zhixing stood up: "It's not too early, let's disperse, and we will leave tomorrow at dawn." β
"Yes!" Several people responded loudly.
Su Mian followed Gu Zhixing all the way to the north, she lowered her head and thought about things, not noticing at all that the people in front of her didn't know when they stopped.
With a "bang", she hit Gu Zhixing's broad back impartially.
"Oops-" rubbed his aching forehead,
Su Mianmeng took a step back and looked at the person in front of him with some puzzlement.
"Why did you stop ...... suddenly?" she froze in place halfway through her words.
Can anyone tell me why there is only one tent here?
What about the other? Su Mian looked at the lonely tent in front of him, and was stunned for a long time, and then suddenly reacted to what was going on.
Wipe! They won't let me sleep with Gu Zhixing tonight, right?
Wrong! Why didn't they even ask, they just acquiesced that I wanted to sleep with Gu Zhixing! Su Mian's mind was in a mess, and the expression on his face was also very exciting for a moment.
Gu Zhixing's expression was also a little crying and laughing.
After a pause, he turned around, looked at Su Mian and said, "Go, you go in and rest." β
After all, it must be because of his own negligence that he forgot to say that he arranged a tent for Su Mian alone, and he also knew that Su Mian would definitely not want to live with him.
didn't expect him to make a decision so quickly, Su Mian was slightly stunned, and subconsciously asked back, "What about you?" β
"Naturally, I'll stay outside, manly man, and it won't be good to sleep in the tent one night less." As he spoke, he casually sat down against a tree in front of the fire, looking leisurely and contented.
Su Mian stood in place and didn't speak for a long time.
She couldn't pull her face to let Gu Zhixing live with her, but she was embarrassed to occupy his tent like this.
If you let others know early tomorrow morning, it will inevitably make people talk, but if you take the initiative to ask to go to sleep in the carriage, Gu Zhixing will definitely not agree......
Su Mian stood in place with a tangled expression, and did not move his steps for a long time.
Gu Zhixing saw that her two thin eyebrows were twisted together, and he knew at a glance what was going on in her mind.
Smiling, he deliberately evoked a smile with some evil spirit, and said in a low voice: "Ah Mian is standing here and not leaving, do you want to invite me in to sleep together?" β
It was originally a very normal sentence, but Gu Zhixing just dragged on the end of the words "sleep together" for an extremely long time, and it sounded with a hint of inexplicable ambiguity and restraint.
Su Mian's ears were hot, and he immediately pulled down his face, and said in a rapid tone: "Who wants to invite you along?" β
Without hesitation, he turned around and walked towards the tent.
Seeing her figure disappear behind the curtain, the evil smile on Gu Zhixing's face dissipated, and a trace of gentleness crossed his eyes.
Although the tent is simply furnished, the beds and quilts spread on the ground are soft enough.
Su Mian wrapped herself in the quilt, and then felt a little regretful why she came in directly on impulse just now, and she felt a little uncomfortable when she thought that Gu Zhixing was still sitting outside.
The two of them are awkward every day, and Su Mian's heart is not comfortable, but she doesn't know how to solve it.
closed his eyes, but Su Mian felt that he was not sleepy at all, and the sound of the crackling and burning fire outside seemed extremely clear in the quiet night, and it seemed to linger in his ears.
All in my mind was the picture of Gu Zhixing sitting outside alone.
I don't know how long I lay down, Su Mian finally couldn't help but sit up suddenly.
No, there's no way to sleep in peace!
It's full of guilt!
I'll just go out and have a look!
Give Gu Zhixing a cloak and come back!
After making up his mind, Su Mian took out his big cloak from the package on the side, took it and walked out.
Gu Zhixing had already heard Su Mian tossing and turning in the tent, but he didn't expect her to come out suddenly, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Su Mian made a straight face, strode in front of Gu Zhixing, and threw the cloak in his hand into his arms.
A smile crossed Gu Zhixing's eyes, and he deliberately pretended not to understand and asked, "What does Ah Mian mean by this?" β
Su Mian's footsteps when he turned around and wanted to leave paused slightly, and his breath was blocked in his chest, knowing that he did it on purpose, so he had to quickly answer: "I'm afraid that you will freeze to death." β
Then, as before, he quickly burrowed back into the tent without looking back.
Gu Zhixing looked at the cloak in his hand, and shook his head helplessly and dotingly, but there was a smile on his face.
Back in the tent, Su Mian wrapped herself in the quilt again, but she still didn't feel sleepy at all, and she couldn't calm down.
After tossing and turning for a long time, I finally couldn't help but sit up again.
Gu Zhixing couldn't help but be a little amused when he heard her tossing in it for a long time, and he also stood up and walked in the direction of the tent.
Unexpectedly, he had just taken two steps when he saw the tent in front of him being pulled apart violently.
Su Mian stood in the tent, staring at Gu Zhixing, who was standing not far away, and didn't know whether he was angry with him or with himself.
Looking at each other, there seemed to be some strange atmosphere in the air, and no one spoke first.
After a long time, Gu Zhixing was afraid that she would get cold if she stood there all the time, so she asked helplessly: "Ah Mian feels that she can't sleep and wants to listen to the story?" β
"......" Su Mian paused slightly.
She originally wanted to call Gu Zhixing to come in and rest, but she didn't know how to speak, but now she had a ready-made reason.
Nodding, she replied in a low voice, "It seems that I can't sleep......"
Gu Zhixing smiled knowingly, and then walked forward and draped the cloak in his hand over her body.
"Go in, it's cool at night, and I'll tell you a story to put you to sleep." His tone was so gentle that Su Mian's heart almost skipped a beat.
Silently turned around and went in, Su Mian sat down on the soft futon, and Gu Zhixing sat beside her.
"Ah Mian lie down first, and then tell me what you want to hear." Gu Zhixing lifted the futon that still had questions left, and motioned for Su Mian to lie down obediently.
Tomorrow morning, he will lead the troops to set off, where is Su Mian in the mood to listen to any stories, just want Gu Zhixing to have a good rest.
After hesitating for a moment, she simply lifted the futon directly, lay down near the edge, turned her back, and said in a stiff tone: "Don't listen to the story, you, sleep." β
It is self-evident who the half left aside beside her is for.
A trace of surprise crossed Gu Zhixing's eyes, and then a strong smile piled up.
