Chapter 103
At dawn, the golden light in the tent was hazy, like a dream. Under the shroud of the early morning light, Ning Yue's clear face revealed a pale luster, which was even more flawless. Ning Yue vaguely noticed that she was half-lying in An Ruiqi's arms, although it was warm, it was not comfortable, just because An Ruiqi was looking for her eagerly yesterday and didn't care about changing into a battle robe, so she had been snuggling up to the hard iron armor all night.
Seeing that she had just woken up, her dark eyes were still covered with a layer of white mist, she pushed herself away in a panic, looking so moving, An Ruiqi couldn't help but show a shallow smile, he gently stroked her little face, stared at her contentedly and asked, "Yue'er, did you sleep well?" Seeing that Ning Yue lowered her head in embarrassment, not knowing how to answer, slightly embarrassed, An Ruiqi smiled even deeper. How could he not know that he, a silver-armored man, wanted to look at her a few more times and send her back to his tent to rest, but he just looked at it, and he couldn't take his eyes off it, and in the end, it was a night. The heavy armor pressed on him for several hours, and he didn't dare to move for half a minute for fear of waking Ning Yue, but now he felt that his body was sore and his limbs were stiff, but he was also willing to be so close to her. "Yesterday, I saw you sleeping so peacefully in my arms, I was really reluctant to put you down, that's why I hugged you like this, Yue'er, will you blame me?" An Ruiqi slowly approached Ning Yue and whispered.
Hearing An Ruiqi's ambiguous words, Ning Yue's face was flushed, and he hurriedly lowered his head and replied hesitantly: "No...... How could I blame you...... It's my bad ......."
Sensing that she was so embarrassed that she was at a loss, An Ruiqi couldn't bear to tease her anymore, so he sat up straight again, pinched her small chin, and replied gently: "Yue'er is not bad, you are willing to rely on me, I am happy in my heart......"
Ning Yue's heart trembled, and she raised her eyes to look at An Ruiqi, but when she saw that there was a faint blue and black under his bright eyes, she knew that he must have been sleepless all night to protect herself and Zhan Long, and she was very sad. wanted to reach out and touch An Ruiqi, but hesitated because of a moment of weakness. As if seeing her thoughts, An Ruiqi took her hand, covered it on his face, and then stared at her quietly with deep eyes without saying a word, as if waiting for something, so that she couldn't dodge, only felt the dark tide in her heart surging, and her whole body was hot. It wasn't until Smiling Yan appeared holding breakfast that An Ruiqi let go of his hand and silently went back to his tent to freshen up and change clothes. Looking at his lost back, Ning Yue felt bitter in his heart. Brother Qi, do you know that whenever you look at me and treat me well, I will be afraid, afraid that I will not be able to do without you, afraid that I will fall deeper and deeper, afraid that I will not be able to suppress the impulse in my heart and moth to the fire, afraid that I will end up in a miserable situation like my mother...... I don't want to see you worry about me for a moment, I don't want to see you grant me a name because you feel ashamed of me, if you know that this intention is only a burden to you, why bother to say it? When the murder case is revealed, I will leave Ningfu, leave the capital, and go to a place without you, maybe only then can I cut off my thoughts of you. Whenever I think that you can finally marry your beloved, the pain in my heart will be reduced a little, and maybe in a few years, I will be able to let go of my obsession with you, find someone who will only stay with me for the rest of my life, and live an ordinary life, I don't know......
"Sister Yue'er, you said that your brother-in-law's heart belongs to something else, I don't believe it!" The affection in An Ruiqi's eyes could be seen by anyone, and he smiled and recalled that he had blamed him for Ning Yue's words, and he couldn't help but feel a little guilty, so he was anxious to hold grievances for him.
"Yes or no, I have never been a good match for him...... Burying this love in the bottom of my heart, deep in him, and I is the best choice......" As the residual warmth of his hand dissipated little by little, Ning Yue's heart became more and more cold.
"Sister Yue'er... I don't think my brother-in-law cares about status...... You ......"
Before Xiaoyan finished speaking, Ning Yue took her hand, shook her head, and said softly: "Brother Qi is free and easy, and his heart is indifferent, so he won't value these, but unfortunately there are not many people in the world who can be like him, and I can't let him be criticized for my own selfishness...... Moreover, these are not the only things that stand between him and me...... I've made up my mind, you don't have to persuade Sister Xiaoyan anymore......"
Seeing her cold expression, her eyes were firm, and she understood with a smile that there was no room for maneuver, so she had to swallow the rest of the words back. After a while, Shen Yidao and others also appeared one after another. Except for Shen Yidao, the other cottage brothers only stayed for about half an hour, and when they saw that the war dragon's breath was stable, they left. "Miss Ning takes care of us, we are very relieved!" Since seeing Ning Yue's meticulous care for Zhan Long, these reckless horsemen couldn't help but feel a little envious in addition to sighing to themselves. To be able to get the mercy of a beautiful woman, even if you have to suffer a serious injury, it is worth it. Knowing that it would be useless to stay for a long time, they quietly and humorously left so as not to disturb the peace of the two of them. Although the fork in the road in the past two days was calm, but the well-trained they did not take it lightly at all, under the dispatch of Shen Yidao, these more than ten people took turns to guard, ready to face the battle at any time. It was almost noon, An Ruiqi, who had changed into a cyan robe, came up, he pursed his lips and smiled at the three of them, and then walked to Ning Yue's side and sat on the ground, quietly looking through the scroll in his hand. Shen Yidao looked suspiciously at General An, who was sitting beside Ning Yue in a natural posture, and frowned. For a time, there was silence in the tent.
In front of the barracks, two fast horses galloped forward, and before the guards could stop them, they were already on their knees, panting, foaming at the mouth, and fell to the ground. Immediately, one of them was wearing a black suit, and his martial arts were extraordinary, and when the horse he was riding was about to fall, he jumped and landed safely, and the other was wearing a cloth robe, with a childish face, kind eyebrows, and a smile, but he did not understand martial arts when he landed on the ground, but it was not as chic as the former. "Ouch!" He tried to imitate the man in black and jumped off the horse, but not only did he not succeed, but he also fell heavily on the ground and rolled several times before stopping. "Why don't you help me up!" Seeing the soldiers standing aside and looking at each other, and the man in black standing by, the old man was a little angry. "Who's coming?" The soldier surrounded the two of them and asked. The man in black quickly pulled the embarrassed old man up with one hand, ignored the old man's broken thoughts, and replied imposingly: "The divine doctor is here, quickly give way, if you delay the opportunity to treat the big boss, you can afford it!" "Since you know that I am a miracle doctor, you should treat me as a guest, not to mention that these two days have kept me on a sleepless journey, just falling off my horse is enough to kill my old bone!" The old man rebuked angrily. "If you don't give up like this, and you delay the hour, I'm afraid that the five life-sustaining pills will all fall into the stomachs of others and turn into nothing!" The man in black replied sharply. When the old man heard this, he immediately fell silent, and the soldiers hurriedly retreated when they saw this, letting them pass. "Let's go!" After speaking, the man in black pulled the staggering old man and walked quickly towards the camp of the war dragon.
