Chapter Twenty-Three: Love and Hate
On the way to Anle Palace, neither of them was speechless.
Zheng Xiyao stared thoughtfully at the indifferent and lonely male protagonist in front of her.
[Host, don't be sad. Actually, it's understandable.,The male protagonist.,It's always been this style.。 The system comforted Zheng Xiyao.
"I'm not sad. I'm happy. Zheng Xiyao said in a pleasant voice.
[Huh? Are you confused? The system is puzzled. According to normal human feelings, would you be happy if the gift you carefully prepared was discarded?
Zheng Xiyao had a smile on her face, and her heart did not fluctuate.
[System, this is just a world for me to complete tasks.] The people here are no different from the characters in the game. She replied flatly.
The system was silent for a long time.
[Host, do you really not care about the people in this world? 】
Zheng Xiyao didn't respond, but quickly kept up with the pace of the male protagonist.
When the male protagonist saw Zheng Xiyao take the initiative to approach, the corners of his mouth rose, and he quietly slowed down.
"What are you thinking?" The male protagonist asked.
"I'm thinking about Your Majesty," Zheng Xiyao said coquettishly, and the male protagonist stared at the woman's eyes, reflecting the color of the glass under the reflection of the sun.
He pursed his lips slightly and smiled: "Yao'er will also say some sweet words to coax me now"
Zheng Xiyao's smile expanded, turned her body upside down to face the male protagonist, tilted her head and said coquettishly: "Your Majesty, what the concubine said is true." The concubine was really thinking... Ahh
"Be careful!" The male protagonist quickly grabbed Zheng Xiyao, who fell backwards.
He took her in his arms.
Zheng Xiyao was taken aback and subconsciously pushed the male protagonist away. The body did not stand firm and fell to the ground.
The man looked down at Zheng Xiyao and said in a deep voice, "Does it hurt?" ”
She blushed slightly, stood up strongly, patted the ash on her hands, and shook her head pretending to be calm and stubborn: "It's okay, the concubine has rough skin and thick flesh, and she doesn't feel anything." ”
The male protagonist didn't speak, but his eyes were staring straight at her injured hand.
Zheng Xiyao avoided the male protagonist's gaze, pointed to the stone that tripped her in a brisk tone and said, "Your Majesty, don't you feel familiar?" ”
The male protagonist followed her line of sight and saw that it was a moss stone less than twenty centimeters. The shape of the gap on the top is peculiar, it is jagged.
Zheng Xiyao squatted down to wipe off the weeds and moss on it, and a line of words was engraved on it: The third brother's green plum wine is here.
She excitedly moved the stone away, and used her hands to remove the soil from under the stone. Sure enough, after a while, a jar of wine was revealed.
"Your Majesty, look, the wine we hid back then is still here!"
The male protagonist didn't seem to expect it, and then dug out this jar of wine with Zheng Xiyao.
Zheng Xiyao found that the male protagonist seemed to like drinking very much, because he had drunk three cups in a row.
"Bring it."
"What?" Zheng Xiyao was puzzled.
The male protagonist gestured to the food box in her hand. Zheng Xiyao realized that the male protagonist was talking about the osmanthus cake she had been holding.
She smiled and refused the male lead's request; "Your Majesty, you don't have to force it, I know you don't like to eat this. I actually have a ...... to prepare the appetizers."
"No, who said I didn't like it." The male protagonist snatched the food box and protected it in his arms.
Zheng Xiyao was surprised, looked at the slightly drunk and slurred male protagonist, and realized that Liu Siyan was drunk.
Unexpectedly, he still drank a glass of alcohol.
"Didn't Your Majesty just throw it away?" Zheng Xiyao asked softly.
The male protagonist's lips squirmed up and down a few times, as if he had said something. Zheng Xiyao didn't hear it clearly, and asked about a smell of green plums, which is unique to the male protagonist, which makes people addicted.
For a long time, the male protagonist didn't speak, but he was skillful in his movements, taking a sip of osmanthus crisp and a sip of green plum wine.
Zheng Xiyao looked at the familiar people and familiar scenes, and suddenly became interested.
She quickly drew the sword of the guard behind her, turned around, and danced a brilliant sword flower, and moved in all directions with a sword dance.
The sword light was like water, and it shimmered with stars in the dark night.
Her long hair fluttered and flew like butterfly wings, and she was incredibly beautiful.
Zheng Xiyao's sword dance was completed in one go, as if everything in heaven and earth was spinning under her feet.
Her dancing was as beautiful as a painting.
Liu Siyan was in a trance for a while, and the people in front of him seemed to be heavenly beings, and this situation was like a dream.
"I and the spring breeze are all passers-by, and you bring the autumn water to the galaxy."
The woman's voice followed the dancing sword momentum, like water, ethereal like a fairy.
Liu Siyan poured a sip of wine, grabbed the 'immortal' who was dancing the sword in three steps and two steps, pressed Zheng Xiyao's neck, and gave the wine in his mouth to the woman.
Zheng Xiyao was frightened by the male protagonist's sudden movements, and could only let the male protagonist kiss and gnaw for a while, until her tongue was bitten and blood flowed out of the corners of her mouth.
She pushed the male protagonist away and covered her mouth in pain.
"Yao'er, don't go." The man walked over her shoulder, his eyes blazing, as if he were about to burn people to ashes.
"Your Majesty......"
The male protagonist put his arm around her and kissed her soft lips desperately.
"Hmm......" Zheng Xiyao was forced to bear his enthusiasm, and the pain in her lips and tongue made her physically struggle. But the male protagonist's trembling body and urgent movements made her give up struggling.
At this moment, Zheng Xiyao determined one thing.
The male protagonist likes her, but he also hates her.
