Chapter 45: Dawn
The young man's earnest voice echoed in the pavilion, and the girl under the pavilion stiffened into a stone statue.
Zhu Luan really didn't expect Duan Haochu to look like this in his eyes, after all, they were just a political marriage and didn't get along for a long time.
The fiancé who was just silently by her side described her to her brother like this...... That's really ......
Even she would be embarrassed......
Zhu Luan was stunned, but when she came back to her senses, she found that the height of Duan Lizheng's gaze was a little wrong, and after saying such a sentence, the young man opposite was actually ...... Look at her neck?
Duan Lizheng didn't mean to, but after he finished saying the words that he had heard since he was a child, the words that his brother inadvertently confided after a drink sounded in his ears.
"Although I don't know if it's possible, if one day your fiancée comes to you to ask for an evaluation of Princess Yingluan, pay attention to the girl's neck after you finish speaking."
At that time, Duan Lizheng didn't understand and thought that his brother was just drunk, but he didn't expect it......
Her neck was really red.
Duan Lizheng looked at the red neck of the girl in front of him in a daze, and the scene between his brother and him sounded in his ears again.
He still remembered that he seriously asked why he looked at his neck, but his brother smiled wistfully and said to him, "There are women in this world who are not born with a red face, no matter what they do, their faces are not red and their hearts do not beat, but fortunately, their necks are still red." ”
What my brother said was true......
The originally white neck of the girl in front of him was actually red, Duan Lizheng had never seen Zhu Luan's face red, and he was completely occupied by this sudden discovery, and he didn't even have time to think about why his brother knew, until the girl opposite looked at him suspiciously.
"What are you doing?"
Hearing Zhu Luan's somewhat stunned question, Duan Lizheng was stunned and felt deeply offended, "I'm sorry, I ......"
The next moment, his somewhat flustered voice stopped, and the gaze that was about to move away froze.
The look of doubt in Zhu Luan's eyes deepened, she had no doubts about Duan Lizheng's etiquette, but she felt that something was wrong, "How the hell is ......?"
Before she could finish asking, a more confused voice came from the other side.
"Did you have a mole here?"
Birthmark? Zhu Luan was stunned, and then covered his neck.
Looking at the girl in front of him and accurately covering the mole that he hadn't noticed before, Duan Lizheng was stunned, "It seems that I didn't find it before." ”
"You're really observing." Zhu Luan smiled at him, his expression was as calm as ever, but his heart was turbulent.
From Duan Lizheng's expression, she confirmed her thoughts, there was really a mole on the right side of her neck.
"I just found out where I was careful." Duan Zheng replied with a smile.
No, very carefully. Zhu Luan said in his heart.
Because there were no moles there before.
Zhu Ying, Miss Zhu Jiu of the British Mansion, originally had no mole on the neck.
Zhu Luan looked carefully in front of the bronze mirror when she crossed over, and as a multi-time traveler, she always believed that understanding herself was the most important thing.
It is not Miss Zhu Jiu who has a mole.
The one with a mole on her neck is Princess Yingluan.
Zhu Luan lowered his head, looking at the reflection on the quiet liquor in the wine glass in front of him, and at the girl who was gradually changing compared to when she had just crossed over.
At this time, Zhu Luan realized that not only the face, but also the body was gradually growing and approaching......
Her body from a previous life.
……
……
"What's wrong?" Duan Lizheng keenly sensed that something was wrong with the girl in front of him, and asked worriedly.
"Nothing." Zhu Luan came back to his senses and smiled at him, "It's just that I didn't expect Lord Duan to praise that princess so much." ”
"It's not a compliment, it's true." Duan Lizheng said solemnly.
"Okay, good, so so," Zhu Luan smiled bitterly in his heart, looking at the young man who seemed to have a trace of gloom between his eyebrows, and became colorful, "You came so early today, do you have anything to say to me?" ”
Duan Lizheng was stunned, looking at the girl in his eyes as if he could see the girl in other people's hearts, he showed a wry smile, "I really can't hide anything from you." ”
The boy stared at the woman he had fallen in love with for the first time in his life in front of him and spoke quietly.
"Regarding my participation in this escort mission of the second prince of Xiliang, I want to talk to you alone."
"Well," Zhu Luan nodded, "At that time, the incident happened suddenly, and I was also about to ask you what you thought, whether you want to go or don't want to ......."
Before she finished her words, Duan Lizheng's hands on the stone table suddenly clenched into fists and opened his mouth as if sighing.
"Can I not go......"
It's not that you want to go, but if you can go.
Zhu Luan noticed the slight difference in Duan Lizheng's words, and frowned for the first time.
"Don't you want to go? It's okay if you don't want to go, I have a way to ......."
Zhu Luan's words were interrupted again, because the young man in front of him almost quickly shook his head, "It's not that I don't want to go, it's just that I ......"
Under the girl's gaze, Duan Lizheng's heart was in pain, and the next moment his fingertips pierced his palm, but he still endured it and finally spoke.
"I'm afraid of holding you back."
Speak up.
Duan Lizheng looked up in a daze, he finally said what he had been unwilling to admit but he felt he should admit for the sake of her.
He closed his eyes, ready to meet the girl's reaction, whether regretful or disappointed or expected.
He has decided to take it all.
However......
Time passed little by little, and there was just a dead silence under the pavilion.
Was she finally disappointed or didn't want to say a word to him? Duan Lizheng's heart ached beyond measure, he took a deep breath and raised his head to end the embarrassment, but the next moment the young man was stunned.
The girl on the other side just stared at him quietly, with no disdain in her eyes, no fulfillment, no ...... The emotions he had anticipated were nothing.
Only focus, and worry.
"So that's what you thought," Zhu Luan stared at him and whispered.
"I ......" Duan Lizheng opened his chapped lips and wanted to say something, but his words couldn't be spoken, because the next moment the girl opposite suddenly got up and leaned over.
Without waiting for Duan Lizheng to react, a warmth came to his face, and the next moment his vision became dark.
A warm hand covered his eyes.
Feeling the soft and warm palm of the girl, Duan Lizheng stiffened and didn't know what to do, and at this time, her voice came from his ears.
"Don't move."
Zhu Luan looked at the young man who was covered by her and spoke in a voice.
"Why......" Duan Lizheng could only ask.
"It is often said that my eyes can bewitch people, so don't look at my eyes this time," Zhu Luan whispered in the young man's ear.
"Close your eyes and listen to me."
The girl's voice is as warm as the morning sun.
"My answer to your question is yes."
Duan Lizheng heard the woman speak seriously.
Answer the question he said that would hold her back.
In the morning light, she said.
"No, you never will."
