Chapter 773: Are You Afraid of Me
Ning Ruoyu's heart suddenly skipped.
Yang Zenan is very suitable for wearing military uniforms, he is already very good-looking, and with this military uniform, he looks even more heroic.
"I would never go into a woman's room." With a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, Yang Zenan walked towards her.
He bit the word "whatever" very hard.
Ning Ruoyu was speechless, watching him get closer and closer to him, he was a little uncomfortable, took a step back, and said, "Don't get too close." β
"Why?" Yang Zenan bent down slightly, looked down at her, and said, "Ruoyu, are you afraid of me?" β
The corners of Ning Ruoyu's mouth twitched twice, and said, "Why should I be afraid of you? Can you still kill me? β
The corners of Yang Zenan's mouth hooked, and said, "Of course I won't kill you, and you're not afraid of me." β
He leaned closer and said, "What you are afraid of is your feelings for me." β
Ning Ruoyu: "...... Lord War, you're too confident, aren't you? β
With a faint smile on his face, Yang Zenan said, "If not, why don't you dare to look me in the eyes every time you see me?" β
Ning Ruoyu: "...... Although I dare not look into your eyes? I just think it's silly to stare into other people's eyes! β
Yang Zenan smiled happily, didn't tease her anymore, and said, "Actually, I'm here tonight to celebrate your birthday." β
Ning Ruoyu was very dissatisfied with him in her heart, and was a little annoyed: "Didn't you give a gift?" β
As soon as Yang Zenan's hand moved, a birthday cake appeared in his hand.
The cake wasn't big, only 12 inches, but it was beautifully made.
The base is made into three layers, the lower two layers are the appearance of the lotus pond, there are purple lotus flowers blooming above, the lotus leaves on the top are made vividly, the lotus flower is curling Nana, beautiful and incomprehensible.
And on the top layer, a white railing is made around it, and the dragon and phoenix are carved on it, and inside the railing is an osmanthus flower, which has been in full bloom, exuding a faint fragrance of osmanthus.
Under the osmanthus tree, there is a flattened boulder, and a woman in ancient costume lies on top of the boulder.
The woman had a beautiful face, long green silk hair tied up on the top of her head, a hosta in her bun, wearing a thin veil, a red shawl on her shoulders, Ruyu's hands were propped up on her chin, and there was a pot of wine in front of her.
Ning Ruoyu looked at this cake in a daze.
The woman on the cake seems to be ...... She?
Yang Zenan said with a smile: "I don't know if you remember, one year on the winter solstice, the winter solstice banquet was held in Zhaotian Palace, you stayed at the banquet for a while and ran away, after the banquet was dispersed, I returned to the backyard of the dormitory, and I saw you lying under the osmanthus tree drinking wine, and you were already drunk." β
Ning Ruoyu recalled that day, in fact, the Xiuzhen Continent is not the winter solstice, for the monks, this festival has no meaning, as long as it enters the foundation building period, it is not particularly cold and cold, basically there will be no feeling.
But Yang Zenan likes these Chinese festivals very much, and he seems to have an indescribable attachment and affection for China.
In Huaxia for twenty years, in the Xiuzhen Continent for thousands of years, he actually has a deep love for Huaxia, which makes her admire it very much.
At the winter solstice banquet that day, Yang Zenan did not invite other emperors to participate, but many monks under his command gathered together, eating meat and drinking a lot, which was not lively.
Of course, all they ate were the flesh of powerful alien beasts that had been brought back from the Originless Sea, and they drank all the jade liquid elixir.
At that time, Ning Ruoyu was just a little monk who had just built a foundation, and there was no place for her at such a grand banquet, so she sat next to the throne, at Yang Zenan's feet, and poured wine for him.
Ning Ruoyu didn't like this kind of banquet, which made her feel that she was an outsider and would never be able to blend in.
So when the wine had passed three rounds, she secretly walked out and ran to the osmanthus tree in the backyard to drink.
Winter solstice, the winter solstice in my hometown must be very cold, right?
I don't know if my mother is doing well? Can you eat enough? Can you dress warmly?
With her stomach full of worries, she drank too much.
Therefore, when Yang Zenan saw her, she was already drunk and hazy.
Yang Zenan looked at her quietly for a while, came to her, picked her up, let her head rest on his legs, gently stroked her long hair, and asked, "Are you homesick?" β
His voice was as gentle as it had never been.
Ning Ruoyu grabbed the hem of his clothes, tears running down his cheeks, wetting his clothes.
"Don't be sad." Yang Zenan said, "One day, we will be able to go back." β
Ning Ruoyu's tears flowed even more fiercely: "I can't go back." If you could go back, you would have gone back long ago. β
Yang Zenan was silent for a long time, sighed softly, and said, "Now we can't go back yet, when we fly to become immortals, we will have the power to shatter the void, and we will be able to go back." β
Ning Ruoyu raised her head to look at him and asked hopefully, "Can we really go back?" β
Yang Zenan wiped the tears on her face with her sleeve and said, "Yes, we will definitely be able to go back." β
Ning Ruoyu's eyes lit up with a touch of starlight.
At that moment, Yang Zenan felt as if the entire starry sky was immersed in her eyes, and even he himself sank into it.
He lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.
That kiss is not as domineering as before, but extremely gentle.
Ning Ruoyu didn't refuse him, the two of them intertwined their lips and tongues, and hugged each other tightly.
Under the clear moonlight of Zhaotian Palace, next to the osmanthus tree, their entangled figures were reflected in the lotus pond, and the carp in the pond jumped up and fell back into the water, splashing a small splash, swaying a layer of shallow ripples, spreading in a circle, stirring a pool of spring water.
That night was a night when both of them were sincere, a real blend of spirit and flesh, not the previous trickery.
Ning Ruoyu remembered that night, and her face was slightly red.
Yang Zenan put the cake on the table and said, "Actually, before you came, I never had a Chinese festival. β
Ning Ruoyu was stunned for a moment, and Yang Zenan said: "When I first passed, I had a few Spring Festival festivals, but after a long time, I gradually forgot about it. Until you come, I will celebrate every Chinese festival. β
Ning Ruoyu looked at him silently, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
Yang Zenan looked at the slightly drunk beauty on the cake, and a light smile appeared on his face.
"The reason why I celebrate these festivals is because ......" he turned and looked at Ning Ruoyu, "You like it." β
Ning Ruoyu's heart seemed to be lightly scratched by something, and her eyes were a little red.
"You just arrived in the Xiuzhen Continent, and it's normal for you not to adapt to life here." Yang Zenan said, "I want you to feel like home." β
Ning Ruoyu lowered her head, not wanting him to see her reddish eyes, sat down at the table, and said, "Don't talk so much, let's eat cake." β
Yang Zenan smiled, sat down across from her, and took out a crown.
This crown is not a fake crown of paper that comes with the cake, but a real crown.
The crown was made of platinum, and it was inlaid with several large diamonds, each the size of a little finger, and the platinum part of the crown was engraved with four words: Happy Birthday.
Ning Ruoyu: "...... I don't want to wear it. β
"Obedient, come, put it on and let me see." As soon as Yang Zenan's hand moved, the crown was worn on the top of her head.
Before Ning Ruoyu came back to her senses, Yang Zenan had already clicked and took a photo of her.
Ning Ruoyu: "...... Are you naΓ―ve or not? β
After speaking, she moved her hand, and the crown was put on Yang Zenan's head again, and she also clicked and took a photo.
Looking at Yang Zenan, who was wearing this stupid crown in the photo, Ning Ruoyu laughed out loud and said, "I'm going to print 10,000 points of this photo and give one to each of the agents of your spirit group, so that they can see how cute the famous God of War is." β
Yang Zenan's head is full of black lines.
He was silent for a moment, and suddenly there was an identical crown in his hand, which he put on Ning Ruoyu's body, and then grabbed her, held her in his arms, and took a selfie.
There was a snap, and what was left on the photo was Yang Zenan's smile and Ning Ruoyu's bewildered expression.
Ning Ruoyu: "......"
Lao Tzu believes in your evil.
